Testing

It was like one of those dreams you just wanted to wake up from… I was soon finding the majority of my life though starting to be like that. I mean, who would have seen me, the 19 year old left behind for drugs and beers, sitting on the lap of a 1000 some year old Viking vampire with a superiority complex, the descendant of one of the oldest creatures on earth, and in a rather dangerous game as a pawn for the vampire. Before she was even old enough to legally drink.

I sure as hell didn't…

I blinked at what Lilith said, and then opened my mouth, before shutting it. Then opened it again, I think I imitated a fish in the process.

"Stay?" I finally managed out, Eric's arm down around my waist keeping me firm to him now while Lilith let her eyes turn to me.

The ancient succubus nodded, before raising a brow, "Is there some problem with that?"

"Um." I wasn't the person to answer that, I really wasn't. A hand planted on my head and my gaze turned to Eric who shoved my head back against his chest. I got a mouthful of vampire skin and cursed. He was STILL NAKED!

"Yes." He growled out, "We have plans dealing with a current problem and there is no room for change."

"Oh my dear foolish child." Was the simple reply, I let my gaze turn to Lilith who smiled now, "There is Always room and time for a change. You should know this, being as old as you are…" Her eyes flicked to me though as I was fighting back the urge to hiss at her for looking at him again.

"…Though for your sake boy, I'd say it's about time you got some clothes on." Indeed! He had been naked for far too long and I didn't like it any more. (A/N: Three to four chapters if I'm correct.)

Liar. The succubus grumbled very lightly, I ignored it for the moment before slowly Eric shifted me off him and moved away from the chair he was in. The quiet held while he moved across the room, my eyes moving to my ancestral mother who was watching him with hungry eyes. A low growl pulling in my chest and reverberating around the room making her immediately glance at me and her lips pull into a small smile. I felt she was proud almost … I ignored it and shot her my best, 'bitch knock it off' glare.

I only felt more amusement in her which made me look away. Honestly, how was I to be respected in these conditions… oh wait.

No one really respected me, and I was black mailing Eric for it… I felt my hand clench into a fist slowly as that needed to stop. Soon too… slowly I marched over to the removed pane window and then let out a low breath. Opening the window I let a breath come from me and shut my eyes slowly breathing in the night air. Comfort flew into me immediately and I felt my shoulders relax slowly.

Eric finished getting dressed and I turned to face the group in front of me. Listening as he turned to Lilith and gave a very light, controlled glare. "I can make many changes, but I do not have one that has a place for you in it."

"Sure you do." Coaxed Lilith to him, I felt my hand clench again as she rested a hand on his chest and bit the inside of my cheek, her eyes lidded and those lips pulled into a 'take me baby' smile.

Why was I getting so pissed off suddenly? My hand unclenched and I forced myself to chill out. Really, what was I thinking, it wasn't like Eric was mind or anything right?

But he is yours, she even said so. I guess now that I was fed, for the most part, or rather, relaxed, the succubus would play with my new instincts… and it was right. She did say he was MY prey.

She needed to get her hands the fuck off him.

WHOA. The bit of me still intact from this whole fiasco ordered me to a stop, I felt annoyance at it, but also a bit of understanding. This beast was responsible for a bunch of shit that had happened to me. He fucked me over big time, and here he was still fucking me in a way. I needed to get a handle on myself.

"And what possible position would that be?" Eric's voice brought me back as his eyes were burning a hole into her.

Succubi I was learning quickly were stubborn though. A small pout on her lip came to Lilith before she glanced at me. My eyes widening as there was a spark in her eye. She was taunting me! "Under, top, against the wa-"

"OKAY BITCH THAT'S IT!" My voice exited me before I could stop it and I felt a fury in me grounding out. "GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HIM NOW." Her eyes turned to me and she lifted her hands away and stepped back smiling now.

"That was quicker than I expected." What? She expected…..

That Bitch!

"You really do have little control on your instincts don't you?" I wanted to hit her so badly, I bit my lip and immediately looked away. My hand clenching into a fist like I was the kid caught with my hand in the cookie jar. "You can't help it though, you're a newborn and he is your first prey."

Her eyes turned and met mine as she appeared in front of me. Her hand coming up and grabbing my face lightly before we stared at each other and she let her eyes become lidded slowly. I felt her cool hand against my face and let it lean in against it as something hot was at the corner of my eyes. Was I about to cry?

What the hell for? She let her thumb stroke against my cheek before murmuring very lightly, "All the more reason for me to stay. You don't have any control and while I'm around, I might be able to teach you a trick or two…"

"Don't fucking touch me." I managed to breathe out while my face continued to rest against her hand. She simply chuckled, "Ahh, you're not even one with yourself yet. That'd be why, you're confused."

"Kylie, Come Here." Was the brisk order. My eyes slowly turned over to the vampire and we stared. He seemed so far away and Lilith's hand felt so nice… slowly I moved away, regrettably.

What am I saying? I absolutely hated her! I managed to close the distance between us quickly and his hand came and rested on my shoulder lightly before he put a finger under my chin and made me look up. We stared before I looked ahead grudgingly and let out a low breath yanking my jaw away from his hand. He tightened his hand slightly on my shoulder before I felt him relax again.

If it came down between him or Lilith. I was taking the lesser of the two evils. Him.

I wondered if I would have said the same thing a while ago. Slowly I felt his hand relax before he murmured simply, "You can teach her control?" I looked at Lilith now that was staring at me for a few moments before slowly smiling.

"Oh I can teach her more than that, I've had oodles of time…" She murmured very simply and with a light stare on me. I stared back with a scowl on my face, wanting nothing more than to rip her face off.

Her hand felt nice though… God damn it, shut the hell up. I didn't wanna hear from the other side of me. It was just to eager though and almost felt all to excited at the prospect of Lilith sticking around. The normal side of me though was feeling a great contempt at the situation and would rather eat a bowl of maggots than deal with her.

Either way it was a lose/lose.

"Then there might be a use for you around after all…" I stared at Eric in horror before he simply let his hand plant on my head. I hated being smaller than him, I hated being weaker than him.

I was starting to hate so much lately it wasn't even funny any more.

"Well howdie do to that." Was the sarcastic reply from the succubus. She stared at me for a few moments before blinking, "What's wrong with you newborn?" I simply stared back for a bit myself before looking at the ground.

"Nothing." I yanked away from Eric, moving for the door.

"Kylie where are you going?" His voice made me pause in step before I slowly shut my eyes and then grasped the door.

"A walk." I sighed out before exiting the room. Let the 'adults' talk it out… I just wanted another break from it all. And hopefully no damn succubus, or vampires, or anything else was gonna fuck around with me. I had enough on my plate already.

Like keeping Sookie Stackhouse from screwing up majorly at the Fellowship of the Sun church or something…

Yeah. I thought to myself nodding, That's what I'll concentrate on. The succubus that had made herself a little more known, though all the more myself, said nothing in protest to it. It seems that bit of me wanted a little bit of a break too…..


A/N: Okay! That's the end of this chapter! You've read, now lemme know what you thought, it's going to pick up in the next few chapters again. But um…

Kylie might not be so lucky. So yeah.
