AN/ Thank you all for your lovely reviews. They really do wondrous things to this chicka's heart.

Warning lemons ahead. I really felt that it was a bit too early but that damn Viking would not be denied!

Silence followed Eric's question. Sookie had no idea how to answer him. She was just as confused by their bond slipping as she was his explanation of what had happened the night before.

"I don't know Eric. Honestly. It seemed like you were slipping away from me. You no longer wanted to drink my blood or make love to me. I think maybe you were falling out of love with me." Sookie felt her heart break at her declaration. She really didn't want to believe that but what other reason could there be.

"I would always want you Sookie. Even if I did not love you, I would want to fuck you. You are a very desirable woman."

"We didn't fuck Eric. As cheesy as it sounds, what we shared was more significant then just having sex. I don't know why you stopped wanting me unless what Amelia said was true." Sookie mumbled the last part under her breath.

"And what did your friend say?" Eric's ears picked up on her statement.

"She said that maybe because of your age, you couldn't function sexually anymore." Sookie mumbled.

"Pardon me?" Eric shifted his legs. The look on his face was incredulous.

"She thought you weren't able to do a full salute anymore."

"Not understanding you. Explain." Eric crossed his hands over his chest.

"Jesus Christ Eric, that you couldn't get a stiffy anymore. A boner, pitch a tent. You have to know what those mean. You might be older then dirt but I am sure you know slang pertaining to your willy." Sookie yelled. Flames of embarrassment graced her cheeks.

"Are you and your friend questioning my manhood?" Eric demanded from the doorway. He was standing at his full height. Somehow seeming larger then usual. His back was ramrod stiff. His face was enraged. His hands went to his jeans and unsnapped the top button then reached to his fly. "I can assure you that there is nothing wrong with my cock. If you need to see for yourself, invite me in and I will show you."

Sookie gulped. She moved her hands out in a shooing motion. "No Eric. Its alright. I know thats not the case."

"I think you need to be shown." Eric dropped his pants to his knees. His left hand went to his cock and began to stiffen in the palm of his hand as he made eye contact with Sookie. "Come closer Sookie. I would not want you to miss this. Make sure you let your friend know that Eric Northman's cock gets hard as a rock."

Sookie slammed her eyes shut. She refused to watch Eric stroke himself. Any other time if they were alone and it was for her enjoyment, she wouldn't mind. The thought of Eric palming himself was hot but not like this. Not to prove a point. "I don't question your manhood Eric. I have been with you enough times to know how good you are in bed." Or any other place Sookie couldn't help but think. "Now please put your thingie away."

"My thingie?" Eric cocked an amused eyebrow at Sookie, who was peaking out between her fingertips.

"You know what I mean Eric." Sookie waved a hand in the direction of his man business.

"Cock, Sookie. The word you are looking for is cock." Eric smirked at her. "I do not have a thingie. You can say cock, dick, Thor's Love Hammer anything but thingee. I have too nice of a cock for you to insult it with silly names."

"Thor's Love Hammer? Are you kidding me?" Sookie snorted out. "You might not remember this about me but I do not use filthy words. If I must refer to it as anything, I'll stick to what I normally call it."

"And what is that, little one?"

"Eric, I am not going to sit here and discuss the GP all night with you." Sookie braced her back against the stairs. She really just wanted to drop the subject. She glanced at Eric just in time to see him pinch the head of his engorged penis and tuck it back in his pants.

"GP? Now I am intrigued." Eric adjusted himself and sat back down.

"The gracious plenty, okay!" Sookie covered her face again. Lord this was beyond embarrassing.

"I like it. It is more suitable then your other names." Eric chuckled. "I wish you would let me in. This is not very comfortable."

"It's the best you are getting tonight." Sookie tried to stretch her legs out to get more comfortable. "Can you feel our bond Eric?"

"I feel something. It was more apparent when we were intimate last evening. I would like to try that again." Eric raked a hot look over her body. He reached her suddenly perky nipples and licked his lips.

"How about, no." This was more like the Eric she knew. Persistent, like a dog with a bone. When it came to what Eric wanted, he never let up until it was in the palm of his hand. Sookie crossed her arms over her chest. She tried sending calm over the bond. She saw him look a bit startled and past a sigh of relief. He must of felt that. "Did you feel that?"

"I did. Tell me can you feel this?" Eric leered at her. Her body erupted into a ball of flame as he sent sheer lust through the bond. Her nipples were as hard as diamonds poking through the fabric of her shirt. Her hoo-ha felt empty and she yearned to leap across the door and take her fill of him. She wanted to dampen his mood but she was so weak with lust she couldn't think of anything to lessen her mood.

Her lust hit Eric. He inhaled deeply as the smell of her arousal touched his sensitive nose. His desire intensified to the point that Sookie could not control her hand as it trailed down and rubbed over her sensitive breast. She moaned calling out his name.

"Yes, lover. Feel how much I crave you." Eric growled rubbing himself through his jeans. "Think of how much I want to bury myself in you and bring you pleasure."

"Oh God." Sookie couldn't think. She could practically feel his length buried inside of her. She rubbed her legs together and clenched her vaginal muscles trying to rid herself of the sensation. The throbbing only intensified. The ache that would not be sated until he was buried into her as far as he could go, threatened to claim her in its grasp.

"I want to bury my tongue in you. Taste every inch of your delectable body. Feel your hot sheath clinch around my cock as I bring you release." Eric said in a throaty whisper. It sent shivers down her spine. She could not control her hand as it descended down from her breast and massaged her nub through her jeans.

"Eric please." Sookie felt moisture dampen her underwear. Her body was throbbing with unspent passion. She needed him more then she needed her next breath. She quickened the pace between her legs. Gasps escaped her parched lips. She felt like she would burn into ash any minute now. "Need you so bad."

"Do you want me Sookie?" Eric was standing in the doorway stroking his cock. She could see dew kissing the tip of it. She wanted to suck it into her mouth. Feel him pound into her aching body and douse the flames he had set inside of her. "I will give you everything you could possibly desire."

"Yes,god, yes Eric." Her heartbeat increased. She was getting close to reaching her end. A few more rubs and she would bring the house down with the sound of her release. "Want you so much."

"Then let me in Sookie." Eric reached out for her. She looked into his eyes and they were lit with desire. His fangs were out and he was panting. She didn't know why. He didn't even need to breath. Maybe he was trying to fight this as much as she was.

"I can't Eric. I just can't." Sookie sobbed. Her breath hitched in her throat. She wanted to so bad but what would sex solve. She wished he would pull back on the emotions he was broadcasting through the bond. She knew though that they were both so far gone that nothing short of orgasm would pull them back.

"You can Sookie. Why must you be so stubborn?" Eric sighed out. He bit his lip and his hand resumed a steady pace on his cock. "You hold the key to both of us finding pleasure and yet you with hold it."

"I don't want too Eric. Just don't know if I can trust you." Sookie whimpered.

"If you will not let me in, then show yourself to me. Let me see your beautiful breast and that wonderful little pussy of yours. I can smell your tantalizing aroma and if I can't bury my face into it, at least let me see you while I find my release." Eric grunted out as if he were in pain.

She didn't know what possessed her but she pushed her tank top up and shimmied out of her pants, letting her legs fall open to the side. She replaced her hand and massaged her nub again. She cold feel the moisture seeping out of her. The cool night air kissed her thighs and made her think of her lover buried between her legs.

Eric's nostrils flared. His eyes had a glazed look on them. His voice stuttered as he tried to clear his throat from want. "Show yourself to me. Part your lips and let me see the moisture that you would rob me of licking away."

Sookie separated herself and nearly lost it at the look that crossed his face. She had never seen Eric look at her that way before. He looked like a starving man that had just fallen on a all you can eat buffet. He struck the battered doorframe and she watched as a crack formed that ran all the way up to her ceiling. The bond was becoming full of lust, rage and frustration. She was being eaten alive by all the emotions he was going through. " I can't take anymore Eric, please stop."

"You can take it Sookie. Or I can ease your suffering. Your choice."

Sookie tossed her head back in forth on the floor shaking her head in silent denial. She was going to die. He was going to be the death of her. She knew it. She felt it to the bottom of her soul.

"Fuck. You fight me on every turn." Eric slammed his fist into the outside wall. She heard the wood crunch as his fist went through it. His angry cock bobbed against his stomach as his hand released it to run through his hair. He was a man come undone. "Why do I get the feeling that this is not new for you?"

"Don't wanna fight you Eric." Sookie's voice quivered. She wanted to run over to him and throw herself into his arms. She needed to feel him against her skin. "I want to feel you inside of me until I am lost and don't know where you start and I end. But I can't do that Eric. Not now. Not when I have lost you."

"I am here you foolish woman. Standing right in front of you with my cock out and an aching need in my balls to fuck you until the dawn approaches." Eric growled at her.

"Not my Eric. Don't know you." Sookie whimpered out.

"Let me in lover and you will know me. I will fuck you so well that you will have no doubt about who or what I am." His voice reverberated around the small room. His eyes went to her wet folds and his tongue flicked out to moisten his lips. A deep growl started in his chest and Sookie could swear she felt it vibrate in her center.

She didn't know what to do. She felt so empty without him inside her. She could tell by his body language that he was just as thrown as she was. He looked as if he was trying to strangle the GP. It looked reddish purple. Angry and hard as if one touch would shatter it. It was too beautiful to be treated that way. She was tired of fighting what her body needed. "Eric won't you please come in."

He was on her before she could blink. His mouth latched onto her center with such ferociousness that the first brush of his wet tongue sent her over the edges. She came screaming his name. His assault continued as he shoved two long fingers in her tight center. His tongue beat a heavy tempo against her clit. Sookie threw her hands into his hair and held him tighter against her. She ground her body onto his waiting fingers to let him know that she needed him to move.

He began thrusting his fingers in and out of her, then nibbling and growling around her clit. The vibrations were so intense that she almost lost it again. "You taste very familiar little one and so very good."

Sookie moaned as he continued in his ministrations. His gaze locking onto hers. She pushed the hair that was threatening to fall into his eyes out of his face. This was so familiar. So right. So her and Eric. "You know me baby, you do."

"I will know every inch of you before I am done." Eric reached up and tore her shirt from her. Sookie reached for his, pushing it up so she could see his chest. Her palm met his flesh and she thought this is where I belong. Always with him.

She tried to shove his pants off with her feet. She smiled at his chuckle as he stood up and fulfilled her request, shucking his shirt off at the end. There before her stood 6 and a half feet of Viking God. There was absolutely no fault to find in his body. It was beyond words and was hers. She would never let him go.

Sookie knelt before him and grasped his shaft in her greedy hands. She heard him moan as she took him into her mouth, worshiping the man that stood before her. She slide her tongue around the head of his shaft and sucked hard for a second knowing that he liked it. Then she slid her mouth down as far as she could comfortably go and swirled her tongue up and down, sucking again as she reached the head. She felt him fist her hair at the back of her neck and his hips tilt in as if he were fucking her, guiding her down as far as she would let him.

She placed a hand on the rest of his shaft and pumped him in time to the movements of her tongue. If the growl that escaped his mouth was any indication he was enjoying what she was doing very much. She looked up at him with her mouth still focused on its prize and said with them what she couldn't say out loud. How much she wanted him and needed him.

He stared at her for a minute. A small snarl gracing his face as if he were trying to fight back his release. She could feel him tightening in her mouth. Her other hand snaked back and gently scrapped his sac with her nails. She worked her way to the head of his cock again and nibbled with her teeth. She was rewarded with a mighty roar from the beast standing before her and his essence filling her mouth. She swallowed as much as she could and licked the tiny drop that was glistening on his head.

Sookie smiled up at him, her tongue drawing lazy circles around his semi hard erection. She couldn't explain the look that crossed his face before he forced her off of him and laid her back on the hardwood floors. "Eric?" She felt his arms tremble over her. He avoided her gaze instead laying his head down between her breast.

She ran her fingers through his hair and puzzled at his quietness. She tried to pull him to her but Eric pinned her hands above her head and shook his head at her. He then dropped his head down to her breast and began suckling on them. He toyed with her nipples alternating between licking, sucking and biting. Sookie moaned, her back arched off the floor. She spread her legs to accommodate his body. He fit perfectly between her legs as always. She could feel his length pressed against her thigh.

Eric left one of his hands clasping her and reached down to test her readiness. She was weeping in want for him. He placed two fingers inside her and curled them up towards the front of her vagina finding that special spot that he didn't even need to search for. It was if his body knew what she needed and wanted even if he couldn't remember.

He rubbed and pinched her until he had her a quivering, raging mess beneath him. Her body shook with tremors. She was tying so hard to keep from going over again without him within her. She wanted them to come together. It had been too long.

"Please Eric. Come inside me." Sookie whimpered. She tried to maneuver down and position him at her entrance. The way he held her left little room for it. Eric stilled her wiggling around with a steel grip on her thighs. He used his legs to push hers further out and wedged himself firmly against her. He finally looked into her eyes and placed himself at her opening. With a forceful thrust he sealed himself within her. Both of them letting out a strangled cry at his actions.

Sookie braced her clasped hands against the stairs to buffer her head from being rammed into it. Eric surged into her again, the force so hard she swore she saw stars. His other hand trailed to her hip as he came to his knees taking her with him. Sookie braced herself as he began a grinding pace into her body. Every thrust of his hips caused his pelvis to hit her clit. She was bent with her arms against the staircase, her back arched off the floor and her legs wrapped around Eric. She was sure to be sore tomorrow with the uncomfortable position he had her in but for right now she was loving every minute of hit.

"Yes!" She cried out. Feeling her body ignite in a tingling mess. She was inches away from one of the most intense orgasms of her life. "So close Eric. Come with me."

He grunted. The sound of that, her panting breaths and his balls slapping against her ass was all that could be heard. She wanted to touch him so bad but he would not release her hands. Sweat broke out all over her body at the grueling pace he had set for them. She knew her world would fall apart at any moment. She tightened her muscles around him and was reward with a growl. Eric bit his lip, drawing blood. She wanted to lick it away.

"Kiss me please Eric. I need to taste you." Sookie begged. She was so far gone. She needed to feel his mouth on her. She craved his tongue filling her mouth as he pummeled into her.

Eric dropped down never stilling his movements within her, placing a hand in her hair. He wrapped his hand into it and slammed his mouth over hers. His blood merged into her mouth along with his pillaging tongue. She groaned at the taste of him. Her channel locked onto him tight pulling him in as far as he could go. Eric pulled back from the kiss and had a startled look on his face. His gaze trailed over to her throbbing carotid artery.

"Bite me Eric." Sookie turned her head as far as his grasp would allow.

She felt the prick of his fangs a moment before the flood gates were unleashed and she lost herself into a mind numbing orgasm. She felt him shudder against her as he let go, moaning at her neck. The cool jets of his release, shooting into her. Her body grasped him and wrung out every drop. She felt him throbbing inside of her as his body seemed to shake in aftershocks.

Darkness was closing in on her. She was fighting to stay awake. Somewhere in the back of her mind she thought that something wasn't right. She had never passed out from making love to Eric before, although she had come close.

If that was what was happening now, my oh my what a lovely way to go.

AN/ Just a quick note. It will not be able to update tomorrow. Its may 12 hour shift so possibly Tues I will have something up for you.
