I already know how this story will end and I hope every single one of you will be with me when it does. As always, but even more so tonight, Much Writer love to you all! On with the show. : )

Previously:

"You would have to bond with her." I dropped her like she was fire itself.

Chapter 9:

EPOV:

"How would that help her?" Well, Cluster fuck meet my unlife, a Bond? Seriously? Am I even really considering this? Gods! Ok, on several levels this would be a good thing, she would be mine, I could be more in tune with her emotions, I could even send her some. I would be bonded to a very powerful ally, this would also take care of her concerns of being with me because she most assuredly would not be considered a pet. But there would be no more random feed and fucks, really though there haven't been any since I met her so that wouldn't be a problem, her blood would be enough and it is the most tantalizing thing I have tasted in my whole unlife. But above all else, the one thing that keeps crossing my mind is I would get her, all of her. I'm not ready to think about the emotions she triggers in me, but if I bond to her there is a good possibility she would be around and I would have the time to come to terms with them, and if I don't bond with her she could die, and that's not even something I can bare to think about. Ludwig snaps her fingers getting my attention, I guess I wasn't paying attention.

"You would be able to absorb her pain, give her strength that she will no doubt need. When it gets worse, and it will get worse Vampire, you would be able to calm her…" she doesn't get to finish because we are interrupted by Pam coming out and handing me her phone. I look at the caller id and I am filled with relief. I answer,

"Master." he doesn't waste any time.

"What has happened Eric? Your fear earlier was drowning out any other emotion I was able to sense, then your relief was even more so. Now there is an abundance of shock. Our tie has not been this active since you were a newborn." I turn and walk into the front yard away from the others.

"I need your guidance more than ever Master." I then tell her everything that has happened from our first meeting and on, when I tell him of Terry he interrupts me.

"My hardened, ruthless warrior. It took her only days to teach you what I have been trying the last fifty years to, what took me nineteen hundred years to learn. Compassion for the worthy is not weakness." I laugh at his assumption.

"Surely, just because I helped one human that no one will ever know about makes no difference master." he chuckles.

"Ah, But one who cannot be glamoured was witness to it, and you said yourself you told him to remember everything so he knows what you did for him, I'm sure his family does as well. And lets not mince words, your compassion was not only for his benefit But for the woman as well. Something in her balances your darkness with your light, and yes you do have light in you it has just been over shadowed. If I thought you would actually believe me I would dare to say you were in love with her. But let us not dwell on that now, tell me what else has happened." I want to disagree with his opinion but I do as I am told and continue on leaving out no detail, no emotion, nothing. Then at last I told him of Ludwig's suggestion about the bond.

"I will not tell you what to do my son, but I will tell you I have no issues with this, if that is what you want and you must ask her first of course, however I would like to be there for it, just to make sure everything goes ok. When her sparks merge you may not have enough energy to assist till the end, if I were to give you my life's blood when it gets really bad, you would have the strength you need to continue. I will leave tonight." I chuckle into the phone.

"You act as if I have already agreed to do this master." he laughs a full laugh, something he has not done in a long time.

"Oh my child, Haven't you?" then he just hung up. If he wasn't my maker I swear, I chuckle and shake my head and go into the house with the others. Sookie is still unconscious and laying on the couch, the others have taken seats around the living room. I go to the couch and lift her head up and sit down laying her head on my lap. Stroking her hair I look to Adele.

"Care to share what you did that brought about this situation. I mean, for you to lie to her all these years, it must be good." I am sure my sarcasm was dripping off every word. A small tear falls from her eye, but right now I have no sympathy, what she did has endangered the life of my lover, and her lies are no doubt going to cause my lover more emotional pain than her merging ever would. She wiped her tear and began her tale.

"When I was three hundred and forty years old I left Luna as so many of my kind do. The females of our race are encouraged to mate with the males of this world, as our males have been loosing potency. Any race was acceptable but one, we were never under any circumstances to mate with the fae. After we became pregnant we were to return to our realm and raise our children. It helped, the half breed males were fertile and even though they were hybrids the Elvin magic was strong in them." She shook her head with a sad smile on her face.

"It was my first time being in this world when I met Fintan. He was the most beautiful man I had ever met. We started spending time together and we fell in love. You see, he was half human and I had no idea he was fae, but he knew what I was and by the time I had found out about him it was to late, I was already with child. We both had a choice to make, we could leave the child in this realm and go back to our own, but I already loved the life growing inside of me and I couldn't leave her. So I choose to stay here, he would come and visit but he could never stay for long, his rank would not allow it, if he had tried the Fae would have come for him and we all would have been ended." She got up and paced.

"I know what you must think of me, but I did what I had to do to keep her safe. I spelled a human couple that already had a little boy, I made them believe she was theirs, and that I was the males mother. I thought all was lost when my brother came for me, but I convinced him I was barren and ashamed, so I wanted to stay here and as he called it 'Play House'. But what I didn't know was that he had been thrown out of Luna, you see some acts are not acceptable in any realm, he did things to my little girl…" Just fucking great! But that made me gain a new respect for Terry, not only had he saved my lover but he had taken out a elf, fucking impressive.

"But he was stopped as you know, I spelled him to never heal. Then I took care of him after a few years in prison, where he got everything he deserved. So Fintan came and went over the years monitoring her making sure she didn't have the spark of the fae, When the Elvin spark made it's self know we thought she would be ok, how were we to know, there has never been another like her. But then the water fae came, they thought I was his human lover because I had allowed myself to age, they thought the humans were his off spring and drowned them one night. So, I took in their child with my own, after all it was the least I could do for them. Fintan stopped coming after that, he said it was to dangerous and I agreed. Since she didn't have the Fae spark we were supposed to be safe, You know the rest. I love my daughter, everything I did was for her." Sookie's eyes started to open and she began panting. She looked up and tears filled her eyes

"Eric?" she started to speak again choking.

"Is…Is gran ok? The fairies?" I narrowed my eyes at Adele, but shushed Sookie answering in my way trying to make her feel better.

"She's fine, the fae are gone, you kicked their asses and I had a snack, the female got away so Pam didn't get any." she laughed and choked at the same time then her body tensed and she screamed.

"Eric, it.. It hurts so bad, What…What's happening to me?" I brushed the tears away from her cheek.

"Well, as you know you're a fairy, but it would seem you have a little elf in you to, want some vampire?" her laugh was labored and so was her breathing. I made sure to keep eye contact and hoped she would trust me.

"You are a mixture of two of the most powerful beings in the supe world. You truly are one of a kind. In both races thier magic comes from a spark inside of them, there is a time when you come into your powers, they call it a quickening. It is a very painful process, now since you are of both beings you have two so the process will be even more painful and there is a chance you wont sur…survive it. I called Ludwig when you collapsed, you had a bad fever and she told me to give you my blood so I did." she shuddered but not from my words, it was from the pain and I felt it, it was horrible. She felt utterly defeated. Her tears were streaming down her face.

"Sshh, not all hope is lost. The doctor thinks there is a way to save you my love." the shock I felt when those two words left my mouth was nothing compared to hers or Pam's. I ignored the other feelings it stirred in me and continued.

"My blood alone will not be enough once those sparks of yours merge together. Sookie, if you are to survive this we will have to bond." the fear that raced through my child could not be quantified, because she knew, if I did this and Sookie were to die I would be lost as well.

A/N: I hope you liked it and like I said before I will post another before I hit the hay! Please review if you can.
