"When you said that we should have sex in different places, I didn't think you were being serious." When Eric didn't respond, I figured it was because he hadn't heard me: it was very hard to speak a fluid sentences when I was sitting on the edge of Eric's desk with my legs wrapped around his naked body while he pounded into me. He was also kissing and biting my neck so that was also taking my breath away.
After I had helped Sookie get ready for her romantic meal with Bill (obviously she would be the only one eating), I headed over to Fangtasia to do some form of work. Eric had I hired me and I was yet to do anything. Well that was my intention but it all changed once I walked through Eric's door. He took one look at me then the next thing I know; he had me naked and pinned to his desk.
My moans got louder as Eric picked up his pace. The desk was shaking beneath me but that was the last thing on my mind at this point. I clawed at Eric's back and heard him hiss when I drew blood. I smirked at him but it faded as soon as he slammed himself inside of me again. This never got old.
"Where is he Eric? I know you had him taken!" I looked over Eric's shoulder and saw Sookie standing there fuming. Pam stood behind her smirking but that was probably because of the scene she had just walked in on. Eric groaned in my ear and I couldn't help but smirk; as much as I hated it when people interrupted us I still had to laugh at the situation. Eric pulled out of me and turned to face Sookie with his hands on his hips. I loved the fact that vampires were not self-conscious about themselves and made no effort to cover themselves. I loved it when Eric walked around his apartment naked.
"This better be good. As you could see I was in the middle of something." He looked back at me and grinned as I waved at Sookie. She was clearly uncomfortable standing in a room where two people were naked whereas Pam's smile just grew. I could only blame the Victorian's for Sookie's lack of comfort; they decided to cover everything up because it wasn't 'proper'. Being naked was the most 'proper' you could get.
"Bill's been taken and I know you did it." "I didn't, any other theories?" She looked down at him then back at me. I could tell she wasn't happy but I had no idea why she would blame Eric if Bill had been kidnapped; I'm sure he has enemies, Lorena being one of them.
"I'm still working on it but for now, where were you at 9pm?" I couldn't help but laugh at Sookie's accusation. Perhaps this was my many years at law school speaking (I think I've been about five times), but she just jumped to the first conclusion and accused the nearest person to her who doesn't particularly get on with Bill. That person being Eric. "I was here, with Alexia."
Sookie looked over at me and I smiled. "Yeah, we were kind of in the middle of something when you interrupted. He's been with me the whole time. What happened?" She stamped her foot then stormed out of the office. I rolled my eyes as I got up and threw on the large Fangtasia shirt I kept in Eric's top draw and headed out after her.
I saw her leave the club and ran after her. I grabbed her arm and pulled it so she would face me. "What happened Sook?" She took one look at me then burst in tears. I pulled her into hug and just held her tight as she cried into my chest. When she eventually calmed down and wiped her tears, she began talking.
"We were at a beautiful restaurant and it was amazing. Then Bill purposed to me," she held up her left hand so I could see the diamond ring on her finger. I couldn't help but squeal in delight but when Sookie didn't join in I knew something was wrong. "I ran out before I could answer him. I just needed to get my head around it all especially after all that's happened down in Dallas with Lorena. But then when I returned, he was gone. There was obviously a struggle but I panicked so I came straight here."
I could see the hurt and panic in her eyes; if someone had taken Eric, I would move mountains to find him. "It's okay Sook, I understand. We'll find him." She nodded at me as I hugged her again. It wasn't long until Eric joined us.
"As Sheriff of the area Bill resides in, it's my duty to investigate his disappearance. But for now I think it's best if Alexia takes you home..." "No! I've already ruined your night and I wouldn't feel right if Alexia had to look after me for the rest of the night. I'll head straight back to Bill's. Jessica will be there and she should know."
"I don't know Sook. I don't like the idea of you going alone. I can come with you, I mean I've been with Eric all night and I'll see him tomorrow." Sookie shook her head and insisted that I stay with Eric. I eventually agreed but insisted that she call me when she got there. I also sent a text to Jessica when Sookie left to make sure that Sookie arrived.
Eric put his arm around me once Sookie drove off and we headed back into his office. The club was packed and the regulars thought nothing of me walking with Eric as they were use to it but all of the new faces just starred at us. They had obviously come here with the knowledge of Eric's reputation and were shocked that he wasn't sitting in his usual throne.
"Why would someone want to take Bill? Do you think Sophie-Anne is behind it?" Eric shrugged his shoulders and sat down. I sat on the edge of his desk and faced him. "I wouldn't put it past her considering Bill knows about me selling V."
"What's up with that anyway? I thought it was a huge offence in your world?" Eric rolled his eyes and laughed. "You say it like our worlds are so different. Sophie-Anne is ordering me to sell V. She needs the money and since I'm a sheriff in her queendom, she has that hold over me. And before you ask, yes I have asked Lafayette to sell it on my behalf since I cannot be caught with it. He gets my protection out of it and commission obviously."
"That has Sophie-Anne's name written all over it; putting you between a rock and a hard place. If you get caught then it's your head and not hers. Although she probably would be pulled into question because as the Vampire Queen of Louisiana, she should know. But how does Bill know?"
Eric ran his hand through his hair in frustration and shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, I didn't ask. It sounds like a solid theory but I know that the Queen wouldn't have Bill taken. Like I said the other day, Bill is the Queen's favourite. She wouldn't need to have him kidnapped. He would go running if she snapped her fingers."
"Why would you say that?" "Well Bill use to work for the Queen. He was her 'procurer'. If she wanted something, Bill got it. He had that role for over 40 years and someone with his skill doesn't just stop working for the Queen. Perhaps he was procuring something for her and someone got whiff of it, didn't like it, then took him to stop him."
I agreed with Eric and started to think about the theory more. Surely if Bill was on a sort of mission by the Queen, he wouldn't drag Sookie into it. He cared about her too much to allow her to get hurt as a result of him. It just didn't make sense in my head.
"Now that's a shame. I'm so use to the mini wave of pleasure I get from walking in on you two at it." I looked back to see Pam standing in the doorway in one of her many dominatrix outfits. I always thought she was the main attraction of the club since she was the first thing the customers would see and she was everything they wanted: a controlling and power vampire. Eric just oozed power from his usual position and brooding face.
"What is it Pam?" "Ooh touchy. The Queen and the Magister is here and they're demanding to see you." Talk of the devil and she shall appear. Eric's face looked blanked as he got up to follow Pam out of the office. I got up too but he put his hand out to stop me.
"Stay here, I don't want them knowing you're here." "The hell I am! We both know this about the V and I'm not going to sit back and watch you take the fall. It doesn't mean I'm going to pin it on Sophie-Anne but I'll think of something. I'm a trainer lawyer remember?"
Eric didn't say anything as I followed him out of the office. He knew that I wouldn't stay put regardless of what he said so he just allowed me to follow. I walked out and Sophie-Anne stood there in white as usual next to a bald man in all black. He was obviously the Magister.
"Is there somewhere we can talk Mr. Northman?" "There's my office in the back." The Magister looked around and showed no emotion when he turned back to talk to Eric. "I suggest you send everybody home. We have important issues to discuss."
Pam instantly started telling people to get out; there was no arguing with the Magister. "Except her, she stays." Sophie-Anne pointed to me and licked her lips. If she thought I was dinner then she was clearly mistaken.
"No! No humans." I dropped my mouth in shock and turned to face the Magister. He knew I was looking at him but didn't make any eye contact with me. "Human? Do I smell like a human to you? A vampire as old as you should know the difference." The Magister snapped his fangs out and grabbed me by the throat.
"You're not a vampire so I don't care. I could easily snap your neck and I would fill with joy as I watched your lifeless body fall to the floor." I grabbed the Magister's hand and pulled it away from my neck. I squeezed his wrist until I heard a bone break then I let go. "You can snap my neck but it wouldn't get you very far. It's quite hard to kill an immortal. Now, clearly you can see that I'm not a human but someone that is older than you and clearly just as powerful. Now, I'm not going anywhere so I suggest that you say whatever it is you've come to say."
The Magister and Sophie-Anne looked at me flabbergasted but didn't say anything. Pam then returned and I looked around and saw that we were the only ones in the club.
"Very well. I have just informed the Queen that the Authority has knowledge of vampire blood being sold in your area. As Sheriff, it is your duty to be aware and deal with such crimes."
It was obvious to Eric, Pam and I that this was going to be about the V. Sophie-Anne had obviously saved her own skin by putting the blame on Eric. "I had no knowledge of such a crime but now that I do I shall look into it. With the queen's permission of course."
"Of course Sheriff. I am just shocked that a vampire would provide a human with their blood. It goes against everything we believe in." In that moment I wanted to knock Sophie-Anne's head off her shoulders. Surely the Magister could see behind her façade?
"I agree. Tell me Mr. Northman, are there any missing vampires in your area?" Eric paused before he answered. He was on thin ice. "No Magister but I will find out who is providing a human with vampire blood." The Magister nodded then vamped out of the bar.
"Well I thought he'd never leave." I looked over at Sophie-Anne as she lounged out in one of the booths. She looked over to me and beckoned me to join her. "Come Alexandra, join me. I am more fascinated with you now. Immortal you say? That could work out quite nicely."
Eric's fangs snapped out and within a blink of an eye, Sophie-Anne had him pinned to a wall. I was about to lunge towards her when Pam held me back. "You need to learn some respect Sheriff. You may be the oldest vampire in my Queendom but that does not mean I will allow you to threaten me. Now, put away your fangs and sell that V! I don't care if you have to sell it for less, just get it done."
Sophie-Anne leaned down and attempted to kiss Eric. Her lips barely brushed his before she released him and turned to me. "We could always share him," then she was gone.
"Why the fuck do I always attract the crazy ones?" Eric straightened himself up and turned to face me. "Perhaps it's the God sex appeal you have. It's hard for vampires to ignore." "Thanks Pam."
I hope you all like it and don't forget to review it and let me know what you think! Love you all so much :)
