Chapter Ten
Sookie POV
I tried to ignore the yelling coming from outside the door. I tried to act as if the yelling didn't affect me, but failed miserably. I felt tired, but knew I would have to wait to get some sleep. "Sookie, are you alright?" I heard Eric ask as he attempted to pull me closer. "I'm fine, Eric. Just a bit tired and worried, is all." I felt Eric shake his head as I stared at the door. "I don't think that's it Sookie. I think whatever is going on outside in the hall is bothering you more." Eric put his hand under my chin and turned my face to look at his. I tried to hold back the tears as I looked into his shining blue eyes. What I saw in them caused the tears that I was failing to hold back to overflow. I quickly looked away. "Do not cry Sookie, it makes me feel….strange." I looked into his eyes as he wiped my tears away. "I am sorry that you are upset, Sookie. I wish that…." All of a sudden Eric tensed up. "Eric, what's wrong? Eric?" All that I got in response was Eric motioning for me to be quiet. Eric looked like he was listening to something, but I could hear nothing coming from the hallway. Just as the door opened, Eric spoke. "I am here, Godric."
Pam had opened the door to reveal a man standing behind her. The man looked to be about twenty-two, had short black hair and he was about my height. "Pam, come in, but close the door behind you." I moved to get up, but was stopped by Eric. "Stay, please." My heart melted as he spoke. "Yes, do stay, young one. I wish to get to know the one who managed to tame my child." I nodded my head, not thinking I could trust myself to speak. "Sookie, Pam I want you to meet my…maker, Godric. Godric meet Pam, my child and Sookie… a dear friend." Godric nodded to both of us and then turned back to me. "So I heard through the grapevine that you have managed to catch and keep the attentions of Eric. That, my dear girl, is not a feat easily achieved. I should know." He chuckled as I blushed and looked down. I felt a hand on my shoulder, causing me to look up. I looked into his eyes, only seeing gentleness I had seen an echo of in Eric's. "Do not worry, fate will untangle itself and be revealed to you in time."
Godric POV
I awoke to feeling something that was not my own. I knew instantly that something was wrong with my child. 'Eric, what have you done this time?' I thought as I quickly dressed. I decided against going in my car. I leapt into the air and searched for Eric. I flew into the direction that the feelings were coming from.
When I finally landed, I was in a cemetery. I could smell that Eric had been there recently and had done battle. I recognized the scent of his opponent as the scent of a creature much older than I. I turned around as I sensed another being behind me. "I knew you would come, Godric. I have been waiting to take you to your child, if you so wish." I smiled, recognizing an old friend. "Tristan, my friend, how are you? It has been too long since we last met." Tristan laughed as he came closer. "Yes, it has been too long. What century was it, the fifth or sixth?" I shook my head as I replied. "It was the middle of the fourth century in Rome." Tristan laughed before becoming somber. "Yes, those were the more peaceful days that I have seen. But, come now, I think you were looking for someone?" I nodded before I replied. "Yes, my child Eric. You said you were waiting to take me to him."
A mist started to surround us as Tristan answered. "Yes, Deirdre took him and his child to our home to be assured of their recovery. Your child defeated a mynaed single handedly. They would have defeated Declan, if the mynaed had not ambushed a part Fae girl. It seems as if Eric is taken with her. It also seems as if he has been for some time now." I smiled as the mist dissipated. "It is about time that Eric found someone. Though if she is part Fae, then I would think that he would have to defend her from other supernatural creatures." Tristan paused as he was about to open the doors to the mansion. "That is not the only problem he may come across. The girl is also a telepath. Her life is already in danger because she is wanted by Sophie-Ann. And because of Sophie-Ann's bragging, other supernaturals have learned of the child's gift." I could not believe what I was hearing. The girl that Eric was taken with was not only part Fae, but also a telepath. I looked Tristan in the eye as I spoke. "I will do what I can to help Eric protect this girl. It seems as if fate has something in store for not only her, but for Eric too." Tristan nodded at this and opened the doors to the mansion.
