So here is another chapter. I am typing this in the hospital and for some reason I have been inspired lately with my stories, so hopefully this is a good thing. Things are still not going well financially for me and my sister so if anyone is so inclined to check out our go fund me page to donate or share it would be most appreciated. Thank you if you do. I will shut up now and let you read and leave me some love at the bottom if you want:)
I looked up at Eric's reaction and he was in shock. "Oh Honey, she knows you're her daddy already."
"No Sookie, I really am her father."
"I don't understand."
"When I was turned, my wife had just given birth to a baby girl. She had the bluest eyes and the blondest hair that I had ever seen. Looking at this little one is like looking into the past. I don't know how it's possible, but she is my daughter that I lost so long ago. I can feel it."
It seemed hard to believe, but with all the crazy stuff that was going on around us, I knew that it had to be true. I reached out and took his hand and my mind was instantly flooded with memories of his past. I saw his children born, some not surviving, then the birth of his youngest daughter who was the spitting image of my little Poppit.
I was pulled back to the present and looked up at Eric who had concern all over his face. "Sookie, are you all right?"
"I saw her. I saw you daughter. Erin really is her come back to you." I set the baby down and wrapped my arms around my love. "I saw all of your children. I can't even begin to imagine how you felt losing them."
"It was a long time ago." He pulled away from me gently and lifted my little Poppit into his arms. "I am more than happy to live in the present with you."
I watched him hold the baby and my ovaries exploded at how sexy he looked holding her. My mind went in a very dirty direction when I suddenly felt our bond open wide and I was hit with love and lust and need. His needs awakened my own that I had realized I'd been suppressing since we had been apart. We definitely needed some alone time.
I gently took the baby from him and leaned in and kissed him. "I'll be right back." I popped downstairs and left Erin with Gran letting her know that Eric was back and that we needed to be alone for awhile. She just smiled at that and waved me away, so I quickly popped back to my love.
Eric was looking over all the baby items when I came back in the room and I felt a bit awkward. We had been apart for weeks and things were different between us, I was different now and I wasn't sure how to approach him. "Hi."
He turned when he heard my voice and smile at me. "Hello Lover." There was a part of me that wanted to jump into his arms, but something was holding me back. "What's wrong?"
"It's silly really. It's just been so long since we've been together and I've changed since you last saw me and I'm afraid you won't like it."
With vampire speed he had me in his arms and pinned to the bed in seconds. "Lover, there is nothing in this world that could happen to make me not want you anymore."
"But my body is different now."
"Of course it is." He lifted my dress and pressed his hand to the slight bulge that was there. "You are growing our son and this is a miracle. Any child that comes into our family will be a blessing and a miracle." He looked at me with a look that I'd never seen on his face before. "You wouldn't mind bringing more children into our family, would you?"
"Of course not. Any children that come to us will be loved and cared for as if they were our own."
I watched relief wash over his face. "I'm so glad that you feel that way."
"Eric, what did you do?"
"I'll tell you later." He leaned in and inhaled my scent deeply. "It's been so long, I need you Sookie."
He ran his tongue over my neck and I knew exactly what he needed. "How have you been feeding?"
"Bagged blood only when I absolutely needed to feed."
"Eric you must be famished." I pushed my hair away from my neck. "Please drink."
"You need to drink too Lover. I can feel your need as well and it's almost as great as my own." He was right. I had been able to push away that yearning to focus on the baby, but now that Eric was here in the flesh and on top of me, that craving was not about to be denied.
My fangs dropped and I could see that Eric was smiling down at me with his own fangs down. He leaned into my neck and I leaned into his and we both bit. With the first taste it was as if the past few weeks of longing and loneliness hadn't even happened. I felt whole again and everything was right with the world.
We soon discovered that blood wasn't enough for either of us. Our clothes quickly went flying around the room and the next two hours were nothing but blood, sweat and cum, and even then we only stopped because I needed a break.
I lay on Eric's chest, panting and enjoying the coolness of his skin. "God I needed that. I have missed you so much Eric."
"I missed you too Lover."
"Promise me that you'll never go away again for that long."
"The devil himself couldn't drag me away from you."
"Good." I lifted my head and looked down at him. "And I am so sorry about the way I left things that day at the airport. Everything was just happening so fast and then having to be away from you with our bond so new, it was too much."
"You have nothing to apologize for my love. I wasn't acting any better the first few days after we parted. We've learned and we won't let it happen again."
I could feel that Eric was more relaxed and content now, but there was still something in the bond that he was worried about. "Eric, what are you so anxious about?"
"I didn't come home alone Lover. I have some people that I want you to meet."
"Okay, who?"
"Well, I brought the new king of Louisiana here to meet you."
"He isn't going to be a problem, is he?"
"No. He is my maker's vampire brother. He's been my foster maker for centuries. Godric is amazing."
"Okay, but he's not the one you are anxious about. Who else..." I stopped short when I caught a stray thought that I didn't recognize. "I like it here. Gran's really nice and Uncle Jason's brain doesn't give me headaches. And it's so quiet here even with a baby around." I looked up at Eric with shock on my face. "Who is Hunter?"
