"What the FUCk?" Is my shocked daughter, response to my grate revelation.
"King, a fairy King which makes you my only Princess. You have two remaining older brother's and a handful of cousins. You're telepathy comes from me." I tell her, approaching the bed slowly. She's staring at me with wide blue eyes, and an open mouth.
"A, a, a-" She couldn't get the words out, to finish her sentence.
"Princess of the sky fae, the only daughter of a fairy King." I let my appearance change, and her expression did not alter, but remained frozen, if not in more shock, than before. I can't say I blame her, this is all a big change in her life.
"Why don't I have pointy ears?" Is the only thing she asks, me when I get to her bed in the Vikings home, something I still don't particularly like, and don't think I ever will. If what Pythia say's is true. I couldn't help but chuckle at her response.
"Because you are half me, and half your mother." Her facial expressions changes slightly, and she looks away out of the window, staring at nothing in-particular. I stay standing, just staring at my beautiful daughter. I sneak into her mind, curious to see what she is thinking.
This can't be real, this can't be real. This all has to be a dream, one big fucked up dream and I'll wake up in my old room in the farm house, like nothing ever happened... and why do I keep thinking about Eric? Why do I for some strange reason miss a bloody man I don't know? This is all so bloody confusing. I want to believe it real, it would explain a lot... the way she...
I pulled out of her head, and sat down on the bed by her side, and pulled her into my arms, just needing to hold her and touch her, now I have my daughter with me. Some bit's hurt I'll admit, but she's entitled to her private thoughts. Her facial expression matches what she was sort of thinking. I open my mind up to her, and speak to her through our telepathic connection. She hasn't moved away from my embrace either, which is a good sign.
Sookie... I know this is a lot for you to take in, but please, let me show you your mother. I feel it will be a good thing for you to see her through my memories, rather than a tiny photo in a locket, so you can also have real memories of her, for you. She loved you very much, even though she never got to hold and see you. She gave me you, and I did what I thought was best at the time to protect you, until times where safe in my world. Will you accept my gift to you, so you can see your mother?
Her brain was silent for a time, until she nodded in against my chest. I closed my eyes and held her tighter against me. Her arms went around my waist embracing me, which brought a smile to my face, as I showed her some painful memories I'd kept locked away deep down, in the depths of my mind.
I'm not sure how long we sat their just holding each other, lost in my past memories. Sookie remained silent, not moving or speaking. Her mind has completely shut down, as she watched the memories I had of her mother and I. It wasn't until we chose her name, that she really reacted at all.
The movie of my past stopped, and Sookie broke down holding me tighter. I noticed it dark outside when my eyes flew open. Holding my daughter tighter, as she cried her little heart out, over the truth and loose of her mother, a mother she'll never get to meet.
"I phoned the shifter, and told him Sookie won't be in tonight." A new voice joined in.
"Viking." I greeted him.
"Fairy." He said. Clearly aware, I'd revealed myself to Sookie, still in my true forum. I'd been on earth longer than I originally thought.
"She knows I'm a Vampire Brigant." Northman said, moving further into the room, towards the window, staring out into the night. I felt Sookie move against me and she started to lean back away from me.
"Obviously, I also informed her of others. I felt she should know the world she's apart of. You had no right to inform her of your identity Northman." He turned around to face me.
"She figured out I was something different Brigant. She couldn't hear my thoughts, I also know she's a telepath. I told her, and she told me." I roll my eyes.
"SHE is here. I am here, and she is feeling slightly pissed off. SHE also knows about fucking werewolves and shifters, and whatever the fuck else is out there." We both turned from glaring at each other to look at her. She sat there, with narrowed eyes, glaring at us both. Her arms folded.
"Good luck, Northman. I must go now, I've been here longer than I thought. I will see you tomorrow daughter." I walked over kissed her on the forehead and whispered so only Northman heard... as I stood back up. "No funny business..." And popped away, back to my palace.
Eric Point of View.
Fucking coward. Sookie is just staring at the spot where Brigant disappeared, with wide eyes.
"I don't think I'll ever get used to it, plus I'll hold onto him next time he does that sneaky shit." I didn't like the sound of that one bit.
"If you do that, you'll disappear from this universe, and will enter a different realm." I tell her folding my arms across my chest. I found myself really not liking her train of thoughts.
Her eyes widen upon hearing this.
"What do you mean a different realm?" She asked me.
"Your father's kingdom isn't on earth." Her jaw dropped.
"How is that possible?" She asked.
"How is it possible that you can read minds? How is it possible that I have survived over a thousand years? How is it your father can teleport between different worlds?" I tell her.
She shook her head, processing what i just told her, approaching I sit on the bed, ignoring what Brigant said. I suddenly felt a strong need to be as close to her as possible, so she doesn't disappear.
"The room doesn't feel cold any more." She randomly, said looking up as I sit down by her.
"I can turn the heating on." I say in confusion. She shook her head.
"No. When you left last night, this morning... whenever it was. The room felt weird, empty and cold. When he left it didn't change, but when you came into the room earlier, I noticed a difference, I don't understand." It would explain how I felt with her disappearing from me. I'm not good with emotional shit, never had to be, but I had a feeling Sookie would appreciate honesty.
"Then think about how I felt with you saying you'd hold onto your father the next time he teleports. My body felt the same as yours does, when I left the room. Let me try this now, and tell me if it's still the same feeling as before." I tell her. She nods. I move at Vampire speed out of the room, and wait a couple of minuets until I hear her whisper.
"The same."
Hope you are all okay? And have a fab week :)
