"That vase was a Ming!" leave it to my child to worry about a vase when the prince of the elves could be on our door step at any moment, I am left shaking my head wondering what I did wrong.

Chapter 14:

EPOV:

One week, I have abstained before due to the need for a quick hunt, but never have I had a warm female in my bed every night for a week and not fucked her into oblivion. But here I sit at my desk in my bar well fed but blue balled. Even though I hate it, I know she isn't denying me on purpose, her training during the daylight hours has taken it's toll on her, and then staying awake to read my human employees from all my businesses, she has done so much in the last week it has worn her thin. that's why she has stayed home this night. Everyone is still at my safe house and will continue to stay until the threats have passed. Going through the official communications of the area I am immediately drawn to a Email from the Ancient Pythoness.

Viking,

Your presence is required in a weeks time at the Pledging ceremony of the Queen of California to the Queen of Colorado, After the pledging the pledging the usual trials will take place. The presence of Your Bonded life mate and your house hold is mandatory, this is my will and is beyond contestation.

When I see that it is CC to the fucking Queen, Sophie was not a bad Queen, in fact if she could stop going into temperamental fits she would be a great Queen. I know my phone is going to ring even before it does and I know who will be on the other end.

"Your Majesty, to what do I owe this pleasure?" she growls out.

"Don't start that Majesty shit with me Eric, you know damn well why I am calling." I sighed

"Sophie, you cannot fault me for her grace knowing before you, for fucks sake, she is an oracle, that would be like me getting mad at her because she knew before me and didn't say anything." she was laughing by the end of my rant.

"Alas, you are right, I am sorry for being in such a foul mood Eric, it is not your doing. The fellowship got too close this day and a fire almost caused my true death, my nerves are fucking shot this eve." this got me thinking

"If there was a way to help you with your fellowship problem, could I count on your secrecy for said help?" she didn't miss a beat and you could tell how this last attack left her frightened.

"Any and all help would be appreciated Eric, you have the oath of royalty, I will keep whatever secrets needed to have this threat dealt with." think Viking think, then I had an idea.

"Sophie, if you would be willing to hold I would like to have you speak with my bonded, her skills have helped me with several issues I have had in my bar and other area's of business this week."

"I'll hold." so I used the 3 way calling feature my bonded showed me on my phone earlier in the week and placed the queen on hold and called my lover. When she answered it was in a ramble.

"I swear I haven't been training at all, I have been doing nothing but reading all night since you left." I laughed

"Then those book pages must have been really heavy for you to have to use so much energy earlier." she giggles.

"Well, you seem to have a brown thumb when it comes to plants and flowers, they were begging me to live again. I couldn't not help them." Thank the god's she didn't really have the ability to speak to plants, if she did I would have to keep her isolated so her head wouldn't explode, although the isolation could have been fun.

"Even though we will speak about your inability to listen later, I have a friend that was almost ended by the fellowship today, I was wondering if you would be able to offer your assistance? She is on the other line, would you speak to her?" a little bit of fear spiked in her but then it was over come by ease.

"If you trust her then I will do whatever I can to help. Bring her on, if you remember how to." Her amusement was evident. I growled playfully and I got a huge wave of lust, oh the things I have to suffer through. I clicked over.

"Sophie? Are you there?" she sighed in fake relief.

"I was on hold for so long I thought you had been chained in silver and I was going to have to appoint a new sheriff." Sookie laughed loudly and I pinched the bridge of my nose, what did I do in my unlife to be surrounded by sarcastic women?

"Sookie, this is the Queen of Louisiana Sophie-Anne, Sophie my bonded Sookie Stackhouse." Sookie took over the conversation not showing any signs of fear when she found out she was talking to a queen.

"I hear the fellowship are becoming a pain in your ass? I have been talking to Godric about some thing's going on in Texas with the head nut Newlin. I'd be happy to help." Sophie replied urgently.

"What is it you plan to do?" Sookie sighed.

"Well, you see I'm a telepath, I plan on coming and reading the minds of your humans finding your fellowship spies, I'd have to think about it but I think there may be a way to tie them to Newlin and bring his dumb ass down once and for all." silence, that's all that was found on Sophie's end after my lover explained. I knew she was still there but Sookie didn't.

"Eric, is she still there? Did you drop her call? I swear they need to make a how to manual in vampire speak for cell phones!" Sophie's laughter rang through the line and I felt my lovers remorse for her quip. I sent her reassurance, Sophie was guilty of destroying more than one cell phone that pissed her off.

"She's a feisty one Eric, you no doubt have your hands full. Sookie, I truly look forward to meeting you, how soon would you be able to get here?" I took over now.

"We will be there tomorrow night, as soon as I rise we will head out." we were all in agreement.

"We will require a private audience with you first Sophie, when you see her you will know why." we made the arrangements to have six rooms available to us because my bonded has quite the entourage. Once Sophie hung up Sookie started laughing.

"Oh my god! I am so sorry, I really thought you dropped the call." she was sorry when she first did it but not so much anymore.

"Well, that's just another punishment you have racked up." lust and longing hit me like a ton of brick through the bond.

"I have a surprise for you that will make up for it, that is if you hurry home." she didn't need to say anymore, I was out of my chair on the way to the house before she even finished her sentence. When I landed at the house I noticed there was no one there. I was about to get mad but as I opened the door I was assaulted with the smell of flowers, they were everywhere. But what really caught my eye was the trail of flower petals on the floor. I followed them to my day chamber door. When I opened it I stopped in my tracks, laying in the center of our bed completely naked save for the few wisely placed rose petals over her nipples and a floral treasure trail of them leading to the object of my desire was my lover, she quirked a brow at me.

"Well what are you waiting for Viking? There seems to be a maiden in need of pillaging." My clothes were off and I was on her in a moment. Her need and longing were so fierce I almost lost control, but I was able to reel myself in. looking into her eyes I smirked. She felt my mischievousness and groaned. I smiled an evil smile.

"Now, now, my lover, you have been teasing me since the night we met. Did you really think I wouldn't make you pay for that?" I trailed my fingers down the center of her breasts, following the petals, down, down and further still till my fingers grazed her already wet mound. Her body was so sensitive she jumped when I made contact. I stilled her with one hand as the other explored her glistening folds. Every stroke of my thumb against her clit sent shivers up her spine. Round and round I worked her clit until she was on the edge then I backed off. She was whimpering a sheen layer of sweat coating her body, I licked and bite her skin with my blunt teeth until I found my way to Valhalla. One hand on her stomach, I brought the fingers of the other to her opening and when my mouth made contact with her clit I plunged those fingers inside. The reaction was instantaneous, here walls clamped around my fingers and she screamed my name in pleasure, but I wasn't done. I licked and sucked every inch of her until she came three more times, she was so raw and open to pleasure when I slammed my cock inside her another orgasm claimed her. Her back arched and I took the opportunity to wrap a hand around her back lifting her up off the mattress, my other hand snaked in behind her head and I grabbed a fist full of hair and pulled her head back, the surge of lust from that act alone made my next choice for me. In a ragged voice I demanded.

"Will you ever deny me again?" the force of my voice coupled with pulling her hair and the fierceness and speed with which I slammed into her she screamed her answer.

"No!" The animal inside me was begging for release, but I wanted to play a bit more. I flipped her to her hands and knees without ever leaving her frame, grabbing her hair again while never decreasing the speed of my strokes I leaned half way into her and brought her head up the rest of the way growling in her ear.

"Make me believe it." I smelled the scent of her tears and I would have stopped if I didn't know for certain she was in ecstasy.

"I…Oh gods…I swear it!" I straightened back up.

"Not good enough." I growled and smacked her ass cheek with the hand that wasn't in her hair, not really hard but hard enough to leave a little redness behind. I felt her muscle tighten again and she whimpered out a breathless.

"Yours." that's what I wanted, but I wanted her to say it all.

"That's it, say it again, who do you belong to Sookie? Who will fuck you every night? Who will taste you every night?" nothing but whimpers. I bent down to her ear again.

"Who Sookie?" I asked running my fangs along her shoulder.

"You! I am yours, no one but… oh god…Please, Please." she clenched around me again and that was my undoing, as my seed spilled into her I sank my fangs into her neck and the beast inside me roared as I drew in her life force. Mine! It shouted, then chanted over and over again, we both crumpled to the bed when I retracted my fangs. I laid on her back running my fingers through her hair and down her sides. She was sobbing and I immediately became concerned that I had hurt her. I put my arms under her wrapping them around her resting my weight on my elbows I kissed her shoulder and up to her cheek.

"I'm so sorry my love I didn't…" a small laugh cut me off as she spoke.

"You can be sorry for so many other things you have done in your long life, but I will stake you myself if you apologize for that, that was amazing." I still didn't believe her and she felt it.

"Feel me, use the bond. What am I feeling right now?" I probed the bond. Happiness and love was all I felt. So I asked what was becoming the standard question when it came to her.

"Then why the tears?" I rolled off of her and laid a hand on her back while using the other to prop myself up so I could look into her eyes.

"I never thought it would ever be like that for me." I brushed some hair from her face.

"Like what?" she seemed to be in thought for a minute trying to form the right words.

"The other times where I have had sex, it was never like this. Not only because your some Viking sex god, but because those other times I had to focus on keeping my shields in place so I wouldn't hear their thoughts, I couldn't let go and just enjoy it." her hand found it's way to my face.

"With you, there was nothing holding me back. I was able to let go and it was beautiful, my tears are because I could have had this all along if only I had found you sooner. My first time was horrible, if I had only waited it would have meant something, everything." the tears where rivers as I pulled her to me. She finally fell asleep on my chest with me running my fingers through her hair humming a song my mother used to sing to me. Before I died for the day I whispered into her hair.

"It meant everything to me."
