Hello my lovely readers, I just wanted to let you all know that for every 100 reviews, follows, and favorites I get I am going to try and do something special for you all. I'll either add a new pov (like I did with Eric) have a poll for a plot twist or something you would like to see, maybe even a song fic. I don't know yet for sure. But I want to give you all a reward for being so supportive for my writing.


I was walking through the woods between Sookie and I's homes. I was looking for something but I couldn't figure out what it was. I continued to stroll through the woods and was about to return home when I heard yelling ahead of me, it was a man. I quickly followed the shouts and I saw Sookie running from someone who I couldn't make out, but he was the man that was yelling. I got closer to them and I found Sookie and the man disappeared. "Where did they go?" I sighed and I shuttered when I felt warm breath at the back of neck. Then I felt a rough calloused hand around my neck.

"Hello cher." I heard a man whisper. Everything went black before I could scream.

I shot up from bed and for a moment I was confused as to where I was, 'That's right I went home with Eric.' I sat up and ran my hands over the sheets. "Silky." I whispered. The sheets were black and trimmed with red. 'Seems like Eric.' I thought as I flipped the covers off of me. I maneuvered out of the bed, which was incredibly comfortable I might add, and the moment my feet touched the carpet I was stuck by flashes from my dream. "It's nothing… Not everything is a vision… Besides my visions happen when I am awake, my mind is just trying to scare me." I tried to reason with myself as I fell back to the bed. My fingers kneaded my temples to try to subdue the beginning of a headache. It took me a few moments to right myself but I was up and began to look around the room.

The walls of Eric's room were a deep red almost purple, no windows were in the room but the walls were certainly not bare. He had paintings of landscapes one particular caught my eye. It was the coast of some lush green land I could make out trees in the background along with a wooden home, something from like early Europe. Behind the house and the trees were large snow covered mountains. "Beautiful." I whispered the other paintings were similar to the seascape. "I wonder if this is where he lived before he was turned. I made my way the large room mindlessly as my fingers danced across the furniture it was mostly smooth dark wood. It all looked old but well taken care of.

When I came to the door I noticed a not with my name written on it in neat letters.

Emilia, should you wake before dusk I would like you to stay here in the house until I waken. There is some human food in the kitchen down the hall to right from this door. Help yourself to whatever you wish. I will see you at dusk.
Eric

I read the note and folded it back up. "I don't even know what time it is." I whispered to myself while looking around the room for a clock, I couldn't find one. I pouted a little, "I guess you don't really need a clock when you rise and set with the moon. Wait my phone." I talked to myself. Returning to the side of the bed I found my bag and pulled out my phone, it was almost four. "I guess I'll find something to eat, Eric will probably be up in the next few hours anyway." I grabbed my bag and walked out of the room. I chuckled a little 'I have been talking to myself a lot today. I must be going crazy.' I thought walking down the hallway towards the kitchen peeking into rooms as I made my way. I began to realize his house was much like anybody else's home, though lacked windows

I found the kitchen and began to search for the 'Human Food' opening the cabinets I found mostly silverware and china. 'What does a vampire need so much tableware for?' I finally found a box of cereal. "Ohhhh cheerios!" I smiled now is there milk? I quickly found the fridge stainless steel that I could see my reflection in. I opened the fridge and found it fully stocked with carafes of blood though on the bottom shelf I found a small jug of milk. 'Hopefully it's not expired.' Finding the date I smiled 'Yay still a week left.' I placed the food on the breakfast bar and went in search of a bowl and spoon in the tableware I found earlier. 'I wonder why he has human food here anyway. How many humans does he bring here?' I poured myself some cereal and began to enjoy the breakfast food.

After I was done I placed the empty dishes in the sink and ran some water in the bowl. I sat back down at the bar and pulled my bag in front of me. I dug around to find a pencil and sketch book then I began to draw. I don't know how long I was mindlessly drawing for but I was startled from my seat by a gust of wind and a presence behind me, "Good evening Emilia." I jumped with a small scream, causing me to fling my sketch book across the room while falling off the bar stool. I felt Eric's arms wrap tightly around my waist stopping my decent. He placed me back on my seat though did not let go. His mouth grazed my ear I could not stop the shiver that went down my spine. "You should be more careful min lilia an." Eric large hands traversed down from my waist to my thighs his hands rested only for a moment before giving a firm squeeze. I quickly squirmed out of grasped and faced him.

"I wouldn't have to be so 'careful' if you fucking vampires stopped trying to scare me!" I slapped his shoulder. He looked down at me raised one eyebrow and chuckled. "Stop laughing at me!" I could feel my face heat up from anger and embarrassment.

"I am sorry Emilia." He tried to stifle another fit of laughter. "It's just seeing you anger is rather quite cute." I pouted "Oh I would tuck that lip back in if I were you." Eric leaned forward his face barely an inch from mine. He was about to kiss me when his phone began to ring. Eric let out a sigh of agitation and dropped his head on my shoulder while pulling out his phone "Ja Pam? Jag kommer vara dӓr snart." Sighing a final time Eric returned his phone he kissed my neck, "I must return you home. It is safe now the security system has been installed.

"Ok. Let me just but my things away." I swiveled back to the counter to shove my belongings back into my bag." As I was closing my sketch book Eric stopped me by grabbing wrist and pulled the book from my hands. "Hey?" I called at him but stopped when I say his brows furrow. "What is it?" I asked.

"What is this that you have drawn?" His fingers traced the image on the page.

"It's nothing just… something that came to me."

Eric's Pov.

"It's nothing just… something that came to me." She whispered.

I stared down at the image before me. It was a scene I have not thought of in a long time. My fingers traced the faceless figures, a man on a funeral prier along with another man looming over him. "Min dӧd, min bӧrjan. Far, bror, son." I murmured in my native tongue as memories of a time long forgotten. I closed my eyes to disperse the flashback. I snapped the book shut and returned it to her. "Let us go."

Emilia's Pov.

"Hey Eric? What is it? Did this remind you of something?" I called after him. Grabbing my belongings I hurried after him.

"It's nothing you need to concern yourself with at this time." Eric opened the door to his garage. "Now get in, I will drive you home."

The drive was quiet Eric seemed be thinking deeply about something. "Eric is everything ok?" I asked looking at his impassive face.

"It is nothing Emilia… you will learn soon enough." His eyes never left the road.

I nodded and stared out the window 'I wonder what upset him so much?' I thought. We did not talk the rest of the way to my house. When arrived at my house and before I could get out of the car Eric vamped to my side and opened the door.

"My lady." He smiled giving a small bow. "Your new security code." Eric pulled a folded piece of paper from his back pocket and handed it to me. I made my way up the porch and unlocked the door with Eric following close behind. Immediately to the left of the door on the wall over the one of the hall tables was a small white box. "You have forty-five seconds to enter the code when you open the door."

"Oh okay." I went to the small box flipped the lid down and punched in the code.

Eric pressed himself against me placing one hand on my waist and the other over more my shoulder pointing at all the different buttons. "When you first type the code in the alarm is only deactivated for the front door. There is another alarm box at your back door. Enter the code again and press this button it will deactivate all the doors and windows so if you want to air out the house or cool it off on a hot summer day. Then there is the panic button." Eric's mouth was next to my ear. "You also have one in your bedroom." He then held a key and fob in front of my face. "Use this to set the alarm on your way out it also has a panic button." He lowered the key and placed it in my hand.

"Eric thanks. But all of this wasn't really necessary; I don't really need all of this." I turned to look up at him.

"It is when your safety is compromised and I cannot always be here when you need me." He raised a brow at me "Unless of course you take some of my blood." He held up his wrist to me.

"I don't think so… not now at least, I don't think I'm ready for this step yet…" I looked away from him.

"Alright, but soon; You are to be mine and I will protect you." He leaned down brushing his lips against mine. "Do not forget in two days we will have our date."

"Yeah we do." I whispered not trusting my voice. 'I want to kiss him again.'

"Will you come to Fangtasia tomorrow night?"

"I don't think so I'm gonna check on Sookie and Jason. See how they're holding up and if they need anything. I can call you though."

"Ok." He kissed me again, this time he pushed up against the wall deepening the kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck and let out a loan moan. He pulled away from me which caused me to give a small whimper. "None of that or else I will never let you leave my side again." He scolded me. "Besides you were the one who wanted to be courted." He winked and moved towards the door. "Do not for get to set the alarm Emilia. I look forward to your call." With a whoosh he was gone.


Ja Pam? Jag kommer vara dӓr snart. = Yes Pam? I will be there soon.

Min dӧd, min bӧrjan. Far, bror, son.= My death, my beginning. Father, brother, son.


Special preview for your all's patients

'SOOKIE!' I screamed in my head to her. 'THE SHOVEL, USE THE SHOVEL!' I continued as I tried to fight him off but my vision was starting to fade and the blood was dripping into my eyes.

Eric's pov sometime later.

I hear my phone buzz in my pocket pulling it out I see Bill's number sneering in discus I answer "What?"

"Your human is hurt."
