There was very little talk left in Sookie as Eric remained pressed against her back. His arm was loosely wrapped around her as the other hand presented her with bits of the most succulent fruit and cheese she had ever had the pleasure of tasting. She had refused when he tried to get her to drink some wine but after his finger had dipped into the glass and traced his fingertip across her lips, leaving a crisp-sweetness on her lips she welcomed the coolness to parched her throat.

Eric rewarded every bite and sip with a caress to her hair or her breast. He couldn't seem to make up which was his favorite. She could have sworn a time or two that she had felt a kiss be placed on the top of her head but it was so quick, she was sure she was mistaken.

"No more Eric." Sookie turned her head away from the latest piece of fruit being offered to her. "I really can't"

"Very well." Eric leaned across the bed and placed the platter on the bed side table. He once again settled himself behind Sookie and wrapped his arms around her pulling her flush against his chest. "I find that I much enjoyed that."

"You enjoyed treating me like a two year old?" Sookie blew out a frustrated breath. "So happy to please you Master."

"Don't be petulant Sookie. It is very unbecoming." Eric slapped her on the side of her bottom. "If I wanted to treat you like a two year old, I would simply place you over my knee and turn that beautiful bottom of yours cherry red."

"You wouldn't dare." Sookie began struggling against his hold. How dare he. Just who in the hell did he think he was? The nerve.

"Oh I should. You would deserve it." Eric clasped his arms tighter around her, then placed his legs over hers when she tried to kick out. "I simply meant that I enjoyed taking care of you. Yet you would see something wrong in my statement. Tell me Sookie, do you always look for the bad instead of the good?"

"No of course not. I try and see the silver lining in every cloud. I walk around in rose colored glasses and only find puppies, rainbows and love all around the world." Sookie stated, sarcasm dripping from every word.

"I think I now know why I did not want you as you say." Eric leaned Sookie forward and slipped out from behind her. "I would grow tired easily of all that bitterness."

"Excuse me." Sookie was stunned. She was not bitter. Yes she had some bad things happen in her life but she wasn't bitter. She might not have the best way of dealing with things but she had worked through it. "Don't you dare say that to me after everything I have been through. Most of which involved you by the way."

"Ah. Now it makes sense." Eric stood beside the bed and tapped the side of his head. "You took all of your anger and resentment and used it against me."

"I never did that." Sookie was shaking her head vehemently. "You're wrong."

"Perhaps. Perhaps not." Eric said as he began untying her from the bed. "At this point I think the latter."

Sookie jumped up from the bed as soon as the last binding was undone. She picked up the platter and tossed it at his head. "You don't know anything about us. Don't you dare speak for my Eric!" Sookie launched the wine glass in his general direction, hearing it shatter against the wall.

Laughter filled the room, seeming to taunt her heavy breathing. She looked for something else to throw at him but could find nothing in the soft candle light. "And turn on some frigging lights so I can see you, you slimy bastard."

Blinding light seemed to suddenly fill the room. Sookie shielded her eyes from it, blinking a few times to try and get accustomed. "Anything for you my dear one."

"Fuck you and the horse you rode in on Viking." Sookie spotted him leaning against the bedroom door. He had his arms crossed over his chest and his legs crossed at the ankles. It did nothing for her ego to see him so casually posed as she ranted and raved. He wasn't bothered by her at all.

"Such language Sookie." Eric tsked and shook his head at her. "I thought you didn't use foul words."

"For you, I am willing too." Sookie ripped the covers from the bed and threw them at him, smiling when they landed on his head. True it wouldn't hurt him but he would at least have to move them out of his face. She gave a small fist pump in the air. "You egotistical, blood-sucking, fang-banging, limped dick MOTHER FUCKER!"

She heard a growl and saw a flash of the blankets move before she flew like a bat out of hell to the bathroom and bolted herself in. Shit, bad idea Sookie. She placed her back against the door and glanced around for some sort of weapon to use for her defense. There was no way she could keep Eric out of here if he wanted in.

"You have ten seconds to open that door or I am coming in." Eric began counting as Sookie spotted something black and shaped like an electric razor by the sink. Not giving thought as to why he would have one, she scrambled over and grabbed it just in time as the door crashed in. She gave a flick of the switch and heard it hum to life. Eric just raised an eyebrow at her.

"Don't come any closer to me Eric." Sookie held her weapon out in front of her. "I am sick of your crap tonight and I want to go home. I'll use this if I have too."

"I will come closer to you Sookie. As close to you as it takes to make you eat your words." Eric began stalking her. For every step he took forward she took three back. "And my dear, for the last time you are HOME."

Sookie hit the highest setting as her back fell against the wall. She was in so much trouble but she promised herself she wouldn't go down without a fight. "This will never be my home and I will fry you Eric."

A look of almost sadness crossed Eric's face. Sookie didn't have much time to ponder it as he snarled out. "You silly girl. All that will do is ensure that I take my time doling out your punishment."

"Go pack sand, asshole." Sookie didn't know where her bravado was coming from but she really wished that bitch would shut up. She was only digging herself deeper in the shit storm that was Eric's wrath.

A blur is all she saw before he was on her. She pressed the taser to his side igniting the charge. She felt a little bad when he stumbled back, leaving an odor of burning flesh in his wake. She pressed the button again in preparation for his next move, never getting the chance as it was knocked from her grasp and thrown against the wall, breaking into a million pieces.

Sookie was lifted up and tossed over Eric's shoulders. His quick stride over to the garden tube was daunting to say the least. He slapped her ass hard as she began kicking and punching at him. The smack was enough to get her attention and remind her of just how strong Eric was. She would have done well to have remembered that sooner.

He didn't say a word to her as he knelt down and turned on the water. It sounded as if he were emptying something inside but she couldn't see from her vantage point. All that was in her view was the grandest pissed-off ass in the tri-state. "Eric..."

"Silence." He bellowed at her and swatted her again. "I have had enough of your temper tantrums and your childish behavior. If this is the way, you would act my dear one then you leave me no other choice."

"Whaaa?"...Sookie couldn't finish her question before Eric had her bare ass shining up at him. Her chest was leaning off his knees with her hair trailing on the marble floors. "Don't you even think about...owwwwwww."

Smack, smack, smack, smack, smack. Sookie lost track of how many times he smacked her bottom. If the sting was any indication he was in fact turning her ass cherry red. "Stop Eric. Please!" Sookie gasped out between tears that had begun to fall. It wasn't so much that he was hurting her, although it was nothing to laugh about, it was just embarrassing as hell. Smack, smack, smack, rub, smack. "I'm sorry okay." Smack, smack, moist cool air, smack. "Did you just kiss my ass?" Smack, smack, smack.

Sookie could feel his hardness pressed against her stomach. He was getting turned on by spanking her. "Get it out of your head right now Eric. It ain't happening." Not one word, just smack, rub, hand trailing between her legs, spreading her out further. Tickle of his hair as he leaned down and bit her red bottom.

He spun her around fast. She found herself eye to eye with his piercing blue orbs. He grasped her hips and slide her against his hardness. "Did I not tell you to be quiet?"

Eric didn't give her a chance to answer before he seized her lips in a sizzling kiss. He laced his hand in her hair and placed a hand around her waist pulling her closer as he pillaged her mouth. The coolness of his body was not helping the fire that suddenly seemed to burn down below.

Sookie pulled his hair until he released her lips. She stared him down for a minute before she leaned down and bit his neck as hard as she could, drawing blood. If possible she, felt him harden more. She could now feel her wetness seeping out against his still clothed frame.

She reached between them, mouth still suckling him and pulled at the string of his sleep pants. Eric leaned up allowing her to toe them off. Sookie placed a hand on his length, raising up enough to impale herself on him. He grunted and she screamed trying to fight off an orgasm.

His startled eyes met her as she used his shoulders to begin moving her body up and down his shaft. She rolled her hips and came down hard on his cock, eliciting a small groan from him. Sookie tightened her muscles and rode him as hard as her body would allow. Snarling, growls were emitting from Eric along with her gasps of pleasure.

Eric leaned back some, placing his feet flat on the ground and his hips tilting forward. The new position allowed for his cock to rub against that special place in her that he always loved plundering. Sookie arched her back, placing her hands on his knees then interlocked her legs with his, using his stability as a driving force for her thrust.

Sweat broke out against her brow as she gyrated on him. Her breaths were becoming erratic and her heart felt like it was going to explode. She felt her muscles tighten around Eric's cock, knowing that a few more pumps would place her in heaven.

She leaned forward wanting his lips on her but Eric leaned away. She bit her lip hard enough to draw blood and smiled as his fangs came down. Sookie licked her lips and blew him a kiss right before he sealed his lips on hers and kissed the blood away. She swore she saw God as she came. She laid her head down on his shoulder and reveled in the aftershocks. She felt Eric come a second or two behind her.

Her afterglow was short lived as she found herself sputtering water in seconds. She coughed and flailed about reaching out for something to use to wipe water from her eyes. Her hand made contact with something hard and deathly cold. She peaked out from between her fingers and saw that her hand was on Eric's thigh. Her gaze trailed up until they met his enraged stare. "What is your damn problem?"

"Oh Sookie I have so many answers to that question. It would take me a day to tell you and a full week to make you understand." Eric tossed her a clean cloth to use on her eyes. "I find however, I no longer care. Get cleaned and I will have Pamela take you home."

"What? You can't call Pam. She'll be all over me. Plus you forbid her from going to my house." Sookie dabbed at her eyes. Eric was pissed off about something but she didn't know what. They had just had one hell of a good time.

"I can, I will and I no longer care." Eric tossed her a bar of soap. "Get cleaned up and remove yourself from my presence."

"I don't understand." Sookie caught the bar of soap and began lathering her cloth up.

"Thats the problem Sookie, you never do. I was a fool to go along with this." Eric tossed his hands in the air and paced the room. "Let me enlighten you lover..."

"Lover? Eric you haven't called me that in ages." Sookie dropped the soap and stood up from the tub, wrapping a towel around her. "Do you remember?"

"You fool," Eric called out as he left the room, "I never forgot."

AN/ Will try and post another chapter tomorrow.

Oh and I figured out what was wrong with the format. I was looking at the live preview which is downright scary...lmao.
