Chapter 13------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EPOV

"Depends on how you look at it" I barred my fangs at her. She had no idea how wonderful she truly smelled. I had trouble processing all that was being said. I knew Sookie's family was extremely important to her. I knew that she had feelings for me. I knew she loved working at this bar even know I didn't approve. I was in and out of the conversation for the rest of our time in the office.

"Sam I need some air" Sookie said

"I'll go with you" I said

Darren, I, and Sookie walked outside. Even know I don't breath I needed some fresh air. I had to get her scent out of my system. I walked out first. I took a deep breathe. I automatically relaxed. Darren walked out followed closely by Sookie. She sighed and turned to me. She opened her mouth then closed as if she was going to say something. She turned away from me and started walking away from me. I grabbed her arm.

"Don't leave"

"I would never leave you, Eric" She smiled at me.

"Sookie, I know this is going to be hard but we can do this. Trust me" I smiled at her and pulled her to my body. Her body relaxed in my arms.

"I feel so safe in your arms." She whispered into my chest

"I'm glad lover."

She just stood there still in our embrace. I placed my finger under her chin to raise her eyes to meet mine. I looked into her eyes and saw how truly scared she was. She smiled at me then grabbed me tighter. I leaned down and placed my lips on hers. I was rewarded with a small moan. Being this close even on a breezy evening like this was tough for me. I kept control of myself and continued to kiss her till she had to come up for air.

"Are you two finished" Darren said sharply

I ignored the dragon. I continued to look at Sookie she seemed a bit embarrassed. I'm guessing she had forgotten he was present for our small performance. I loved when she blushed. That color does wonderful things to her skin. It does wonderful things to me too.

"We are never done" I said as I continued to look at Sookie.

"Eric" She snapped at me and smacked my arm.

"Its alright lover. If he plans on being your bodyguard he has to get used to how we act around each other."

She blushed again. "Lover I do love the color of your skin like that"

"Eric" She looked at me.

"Yes"

She gulped. "Eric" Her voice was course now. "Eric, get back!"

She shoved me back with a good amount of force. She must have been channeling my strength. She fell to her knees grabbing at her stomach. Her skin had a slight red glow to it. I watched her struggle with herself.

"What is happening" I snapped at the Darren

"She is adjusting. I warned you all this would happen"

"What can I do to help her."

"There is nothing you can do she has to channel her power herself."

I can not just sit here. She started crying grabbing at her stomach tighter and tighter. She was shaking so hard. I finally gave up and ran to her. I kneel down to pull her into my arms and comfort her. The moment my hand touched her skin I was burned. It was as if I grabbed a piece of silver. I jumped back trying to look her in the eyes. I was sending comfort though our bond. I was getting back fear, pain, confusion, and anger.

"Sookie breathe. Sookie look at me lover look at me"

She looked at me. Her eyes where the lightest shade of blue they where almost white. She stared at me with what I could only describe as anger and rage. She smiled at me and this grin was pure evil. I remember that look well. I used to have the same look right before I killed someone.

I smiled at her "Lover that look is pure evil you know"

She was now standing. The glow around her body was blazing like fire. She looked as if she was going to kill me. I set my gaze with her eyes. She starts walking closer to me. I watch her very closely. She began to reach out her hand to me. Let her get closer but not touch me.

"Are you scared of me lover" She said

"Not at all dear one"

"What about you?" She turned and walked towards Darren

His eyes went wide. He gulped and looked over to me as if to say what did you do. She was standing right in front of him. She cocked her head to one side.

"You are in love with me too"

"No"

"You can't lie to me" she tapped her temple.

"Yes then"

"Why do you love me"

"You do not know"

"No. I can find out though" She reached her hand out and touched him

He fell to him knees. I could smell his skin begin to burn. His eyes began to flutter. I soon noticed scales coming from under Sookies hand and the smell of flesh was no longer in the air.

"Why would you do that for me" She questioned

He didn't have time to reply. With a flash of light Niall was standing right in front of Sookie. He placed his hand on her. Her aura of light was gone and skin didn't look as red anymore. Her eyes stayed the piercing blue color though.

"My child" He spoke softly to her

"What just happened" Darren finally spoke

"I'm not sure."

Niall looked at me. "What was she doing before this started"

Darren snapped out "Making out with the vampire"

Niall shook his head at me. "You sure can work her up can't you Northman"

"What can I say" I smirked at him
