Calm before the storm?

A/N: I do not own any of the characters they are beautifully owned and originated with Charlane Harris I just borrow them for my own pleasure and hope to share with others.

Eric POV

As I sit beside Sookie, mulling over Niall's admission that there was once a fae turned and killed, they killed him. My fangs decsended at the thought of anyone trying to destroy her. What concerns me is depending on how she feels about this...she may ask me to kill her. I spent much of the day after Niall left discussing matters with Pam. There was much to plan for. The King will be unhappy that I killed Victor, even though I am in my right as her bonded. This could bring a war. Bloodshed, vengence, death...a good fight always made me happy but now I want to just be left in peace with my Sookie. I smile at that. When I met her all those years ago, you would never think such a small and pleasant looking human would cause so much trouble.

"Eric?" I look over to Pam. "We should rest. If all goes well she will be awake in the morning." Pam has laid herself beside Sookie again, we are locked up tight in my chamber. In tweleve or so hours we should know the outcome of this. I laid beside her my eyes never leaving her face as I felt the daytime pull me to slumber.

Dusk...

I awoke an hour before the sun set. I felt fear. I looked to Pam who was still sleeping. Sookie had not moved...there again fear, pain. My eyes locked onto Sookie. I could feel her again. I lifted her hand into mine and waited. Pam awoke as the sun finally set. She sat up and moved away from myself and Sookie.

Sookie's eyes snapped opened. Her hand pulled from mine and she quickly moved back on the bed as if to run. Her hands were glowing. Fuck!

"Sookie...it's just Pam and I." I tilted my head and looked at her willing her eyes to look at mine. "You are safe."

Sookie POV

I could feel Eric. He was worried. Everything felt so foggy. I felt something on my hand. My eyes snapped opened and I prepared to run. I was crouched and felt strange. I raised my hands in front of me and they began to glow white.

"Sookie...it's just Pam and I." His voice was soothing. I hesitated and looked at him, I put my hands down. "You are safe."

"Victor?" I couldn't hide the fear.

"Dead." Eric spit the words. "I'm sorry I was not there sooner." His voice cracked which it rarely did. The emotion in his voice was overwhelming.

"I feel strange." I put my hand over my heart, I felt so overwhelmed. "It's not beating." I felt for a pulse anywhere.

"Monsklar it's alright. Please calm down..." His voice guilty...he turned me. Oh god! I stood up and leapt off the bed away from him and Pam.

"You turned me!" I was pacing and ranting I know but jesus "You promised me. You wouldn't turn me." My voice was cracking but the anger beneath I knew he couldn't miss.

"There was too my damange from Victor's attack..." his voice cracked again "It was the only way to save you."

"You call this saved!" I screamed at him.

"Sookie...please." He started to move towards me but just a few feet. "Sam and Alicide were there...they wanted me to save you anyway I could. I couldn't lose you. I admit it didn't take a ton of convincing on their part." I continued to stare at him. "I love you." I laughed at that loud, crazy laughter.

"Love me! You hadn't even spoken to me in weeks!" My fangs clicked down, startling me. "Fuck!" I stalked towards him. "You did not call me, you did not return my calls! I had not seen you since the night at my house. So I ask why care if I was dead!"

His eyes filled with blood, blood tears. He was upset. This was rich. He is upset.

"Sookie I was angry over the events that night. I should not of ignored you. We can discuss that when you are calmer."

"Calmer! Are you fucking insane!" I was laughing and crying. This my nightmare come to life. No more sun, no peace. Deeper into vampire politics because well shit I am one now.

"You need to feed." Pam chimed in having heated a true blood while I was ranting apparently. I looked at her clearly surprised by her turn of conversation and similar blood tears on her face. Both are upset. "Please Sookie. It will easy your...aggitation a bit." She bravely walked over to me and I took the drink from her. I quickly downed the drink.

"That is fucking awful!" Eric and Pam both laughed at my reaction.

"Told you so." Pam and her sarcasm were back. Fucking wiseass. Unreal.

"How long has it been?" I was serious now.

"Three days." Pam answered. It seemed Eric just backed off for me to calm down.

"Try it." Both looked at me confused. "Control me. You are my maker now. I want to see if it works on me now. I assume the Fae turned thing is new."

Eric looked surprised.

"I do not want to control you."

"We need to know how I work. Do it." Eric looked at me and I felt nothing. "What did you tell me to do?" His eyes grew wide and he smiled.

"Apparently it does not matter since it didn't work." Eric walked closer to me. "Interesting. This should please you this was one of your fears."

"Seriously Eric! You think that will make me forget this shit?" Eric looked away from me. "No way mister, I am still fucking furious."
