Alcide insisted on carrying Sookie's case to the hotel suite. It was a special vampire's one which was daylight resistant, allowing vampires to make use of the beds rather than a coffin, if they wished. There were two bedrooms and Sookie chose the one not containing what looked like Eric's coffin, so that Alcide could put her suitcase there.
"I shall be outside until Eric wakes up Sookie." Alcide said.
"No stay here and keep me company please" Sookie replied."I'll order some coffee unless you would like something stronger."
"Coffee will be fine" he said."but I think there is a small kitchenette you can make some in. Leave it to me"
"OK I best start unpacking." she went to her bedroom and started putting her dresses on hangers when Alcide brought the coffee to her. Then he sat on the bed, and started chatting away, drinking his.
They were both laughing when Eric stood in the doorway. "This is all very cosy" Eric said glowering and fangs showing.
"Oh you are awake. I thought that would be much later." Sookie said in surprise.
"Obviously" he snided looking angrily from Alcide to Sookie "Us old vampires can rise much earlier than most."
Alcide rose, seeing his bosses dangerous mood and feeling uncomfortable said "Well I best be going. Let me know if you need me tomorrow" he took both cups out to the kitchen and left them to it.
Eric's blazing blue eyes followed him out.
Then Sookie rounded on Erik. "What is it with the snarky attitude"?
He turned round and ignored her, walking to the kitchen, simmering with rage, got a Tru blood and heated it up in the microwave. He sat down and starting drinking it his face a mask.
Sookie wasn't having any of it though and with hands on hips, she stood in front of him and raising her voice she said "Well are you going to explain?"
He got up put down the bottle with such force that it cracked and the contents leaked onto the table. His body taut with the effort of controlling his black mood and without a word or backward glance he left the suite slamming the door.
She felt really upset, didn't know quite what to do or what to make of him, so sighing, she cleared up the mess then finished unpacking and had a shower. She couldn't face food so laid in bed, tears coursing down her face and drifted off into uneasy sleep.
"Sookie?" he called softly, sitting on her bed.
She woke drowsy with sleep raised her head then put it down on the pillow groaning "Oh Eric - not now. don't worry I'll leave tomorrow." to her horror tears started falling again.
He sat beside her stroking her hair "This is my fault and I am sorry. I will admit I was very jealous, see you two laughing together and didn't trust myself to keep my anger in check, so left."
He raised her up and started kissing her, at first she resisted, futility striking him with her hands, but moaned when he kissed her neck then continued down to her breasts. He ripped her nightie off then as quick as a flash he undressed and got into bed beside her. Kissing and touching her, bringing her body alive under his skilful fingers.
"You are so very beautiful" he exclaimed stroking and kissing each nipple, pinching them lightly, one after the other, His hand trailed further down her golden skin, and on reaching her centre touched her clit and putting one, then two fingers inside, he worked them so they also slightly rubbed her clit each time, moving them until her body arched and saying his name she fell over the edge and climaxed. He withdrew his fingers then licked them savouring her sweet fluids. All this time watching her face, her desire etching across it and mirroring his. He didn't stop there, this time he brought her to such a level she pleaded with him to take her.
He lowered himself gently into her then stopped amazed. "You are a virgin still"? he kissed her fiercely then, "are you sure älskling, you want me to continue" she nodded. Then "this might hurt a little at first bite me if you want."
He thrust into her and she gave a little scream, then her body adjusted to his generous size as he carried on, in a gentle rocking motion. The dull pain subsided with pleasure taking over. As the sensations increased she tried to get him to push harder, moving her body to match his gentle thrust.
He wouldn't increase pace or thrust harder though, he only laughed kissed her gently saying "patience my älskling" and carried on building her pleasure higher and higher until she was almost peaking then he thrust harder and harder until wave upon wave of pleasure coursed through her and she climaxed at the same time he emptied his seed into her.
At the time of their release she offered her neck whilst biting into his breast and taking a little blood. The blood exchange intensified their climax and created a lovers bond between them. Her blood was intoxicating and he could easily have drank more, and he wondered once again what she was.
As she fell asleep in his arms kissing her he murmured "you are mine now and I will never willingly let you go."
During the night he felt the urge again and woke her to make love, this time more tenderly. He murmured endearments in a foreign language, which she didn't understand but they felt right and her tears were of happiness because he was her first and made her feel complete.
She woke late in the morning in pitch black and he was sleeping the sleep of the dead beside her. She touched his hair and kissed him lightly then eased her slightly sore body out of bed and groped her way to the door. Careful not to let any light in she slid out of the door and into the next bedroom to use the facilities.
The shower felt good and all the time she washed she kept remembering little bits from last night and smiled to herself. She often wondered why people went on about sex and now she knew. He was not only gorgeous, but very skilful and fierce in his lovemaking. He was hers and she felt a little glow of happiness because of that. She knew she didn't it want to end any time soon.
She was really famished since she hadn't eaten since late yesterday morning so ordered juice, coffee and a full breakfast. Then rushed and put her robe on, before it arrived. Having eaten her fill she decided to get back into bed, beside the sleeping Erik, and slipped off her robe and snuggled up to him. He must have sensed her somehow because his arm went round her, pulling her closer and sighing she fell back to sleep feeling very content.
It was early dusk when Sookie woke and made to get out of bed, all of a sudden Eric opened his eyes and held her fast. Kissing her thoroughly he said " Hello my lover, I am honoured you let me be your first my älskad and will treasure that. You realise we are lover bonded, as we both exchanged blood during sex. I hope you don't regret that"
"I regret nothing Erik."
"When I talk to vampires I will tell them you are mine if they ask. Don't be offended as It doesn't mean you have no free will but it's how we vampires explain the lover bond. We both know you have a strong will." and gave a little chuckle.
She smiled replying "I shall agree that I am yours, if anyone asks."
With that he made passionate love to her.
