Hey everyone! I'm sorry for taking ages to update, but since I started a new fic, and I got the flu, I decided to take some extra time to recover and I hope I haven't lost any readers during my personal break:(. Anyways, I have been thinking about the story and I know I've said I would have the fic be in May and Sookie's point of views but I think I might want to stay in May's, but Eric and Sookie with still get together! What do you all think?

I woke up and stretched, my muscles slightly protesting. Yesterday had been the first time in a few months since I had done anything physical, and I was embarassed at how out of shape I was. I would have to start running again and when Jason and Sookie were caught up, we could spar. It would be different, me teaching someone since I had never done anything like that before, I was always the student. There was never a time when you couldn't learn something new about the powers fae had, only the old Kings and Queens had true full power of their powers, but they were dead and now we only had princes and princesses to rule. It was difficult but it was the way things were.
I looked around the room and sighed lightly, I could smell bacon being cooked and grinned. To my body it had only been a day since I ate, but my mind knew that by going to and from the fae world so fast my body had lost a lot of energy and that needed to be restored. Finally I rose from the bed and saw some clothes laying on a dresser for me, but I didn't need them. I closed my eyes and flashed white again but then I was in soft leather pants that were brown and a tighter green shirt that supported me nicely. I looked down at my outfit and sighed, I knew that my clothes wouldn't fit in here and grimaced at the thought. I had gotten used to wearing clothes like I had on but whenever I went out in public I wore jeans and such to keep up appearences.
I glowed white again, this time a pair of dark, tighter jeans on my legs and a tank top was on but I made sure to conjure up a bra to go along with it. Who knew what was planned for the day. I padded silently out into the hall and stopped when I reached the entry way of the kitchen to see Jason rubbing his eyes tiredly and Sookie tossing me a small smile.
"Good morning." I murmured and Jason grunted while Sookie a plate of food on the table and gestured for me to sit.
"Morning. I hope you're hungry." Sookie said and I raised an eyebrow but sat down and ate silently. I studied Sookie, something seemed... off about her, but I couldn't tell what. I gently touched her brain waves and pulled back right away. She was guilty about something and I figured it was either about Bill or myself. I looked at Jason who looked away quickly his gaze staring into his mug of coffee and I smirked slightly. It was fitting, a prince and a princess finding each other attractive. And I was not going to lie, Jason had the appeal that many male fae had to them, there confidence and... talents oozed off of them all the time which attracted many lesser fae women and mortals. I was not lower than him but I still thought he was attractive but I knew now was not the time to be looking for someone to be with. And with him ebing a prince...
I shook my head, I didn't think Jason nor I were ready for what would happen if we were to get together. We would become the King and Queen of all fae, it had been about five hundred years or so since that had happened and who knew what all that could entail.
"So, I'm a prince?" Jason asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Well, yes." I said and Sookie turned and sat down with her own plate.
"How are we royal? Gran wasn't fae nor was Grand Daddy." Sookie said and tapped her head. "I would have known."
I shifted uneasily, not sure how to say what I thought was the case in a gentle way.
"Well... fae are known to go to the human realm and... and get with humans." I said and Jason raised his eyebrows.
"You mean have sex with 'em?" Jason asked and Sookie shot her brother a glare while I nodded my head.
"Yes, that's what I mean. And well... I am pretty positive that your true Grandfather is Dermot, I have seen him once before and he is almost an exact replica of Jason." I said and Sookie stared at me with a blank face.
"So...you are telling me that my Gran cheated on my Grand Daddy?" Sookie slowly asked and I nodded my head, slightly embarassed to be the one to tell them that.
"Most likely Dermot changed his appearence so that he looked like your Grand Daddy, so your Grandmother wouldn't have known she was cheating." I said and Jason hit the table with his fist and I jumped slightly.
"That sneaky son of a bitch." Jason swore and I looked at the table.
"I'm sorry." I said and I heard Sookie sigh, I looked up and she was just staring at the table.
"Not your fault that Dermot was a bastard." Jason said and I smiled smally at him. It was quiet as we all went back to eating but I could tell Jason and Sookie weren't all there, their minds off thinking on what I had just revealed. After picking at my food I sat there and reached up to touch the top of my ears, they were pointed but I had them illusioned to seem like they were rounded off like normal, just in case. I left everything else the same though, my skin still had the slight glow and smoothness that all fae had and my movements were more flow like then the clumsy trot most mortals had.
"How come I can't read minds like Sook?" Jason asked after a while and I looked up relieved that the silence was broke. I cleared my throat and shifted.
"Well, from what I can sense off of you, and you Sookie," I said looking at her, "you both have some sort of... wards on you, blocking your other powers. Now Sookie's mind reading will become more stronger but also easier to handle once I manage to get hers off, but to have it be showing while you have wards on... is just astounding." I breathed looking at Sookie with admiration. "You are very powerful." I said before turning back to Jason. "With you, I am sure you will be able to read minds but it will be like Sookie's is now, but you would be able to control it," I put in when Jason's face went pale slightly, and he relaxed, "but since that would be lessoned, I would have to assume that a different gift will be quite powerful for you." I said and Jason grinned.
"Like what? What are the possiblities?" Jason asked and Sookie hummed in agreement.
"Well, from what I know, you could be able to move things with your mind, see into the future, or perhaps control the elements." I answered, but then frowned. "But it would most likely be air or water or both considering where your ancestors originated and how closely tied air and water are. All fae have the ability to read minds but the levels of how strong their abilities are, are very vast, some can only pick up on emotions, or there are some like me and eventually Sookie who can go through your mind and see everything you have gone through in life and control people but I don't do that. I don't like the thought of making people do something they don't want to, though I had to from my training." I said with a sad expression. My cousins had made me control people in town, making me sometimes start a fight or have someone fall in love with somebody to see how well I could control people but I hated it. I wish that I didn't have that ability but, it wasn't up to me on what abilities I had.
"Well what about the bright light I can control out of my hands?" Sookie asked and I smiled slightly.
"That is something all fae can do as well, though mine is tinted green from where I am from, while fae from the waters are tinted blue and the few fae that have survived come from fire and yours, and soon Jason's should be white, correct?" I asked Sookie and she nodded her head with wide eyes.
"What all can the light do?" Sookie asked, looking at her hands.
"Once you learn to control it you will be able to change your appearence, change your clothes, summon objects, push things, heal things, heal yourself, and if neccisary... kill." I finished with a whisper and a slight shudder. I had never killed before but I figured that it must feel aweful, to use such a wondeful gift to do such horrid things.
"Wow." Sookie whispered, clencing her hands into fists and I nodded my head.
"What all can you do?" Jason asked and I sagged slightly in relief of the subject change.
"I can do all I suggested to you, but my top powers would be my telepathic ability and controling earth." I answered with a grin and Jason smiled back but then gasped lightly.
"Your eyes! The color is changing... " Jason said and Sookie leaned forward with wide eyes, nodding her head while I shrugged. It was normal for fae's eye color to change with their mood. For me, when I was very upset or angry my eyes went almost black, while I was calm my eyes were a slightly darker green, when I was panicked or nervous they were slightly lighter but when I was in a very good mood or, I mentally blushed, in the mood for certain things, my eyes would seem to glow and the color would seem like it was melting.
"It happens for all fae, once I get your wards off of you, your eyes will do the same unless you decide to hide them from mortals like I hide my ears." I answered and Sookie raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean hide your ears?" She asked and I tucked my hair behind my ears to show her and Jason them and let the energy I was using to cloak the tips disapear and she gaped and brought a hand forward but stopped looking at me.
"Go ahead." I said and she reached forward to touch them, she leaned back with a shaky breath.
"This is a lot of things to learn.." Sookie trailed off and I nodded my head.
"Yes, and you will learn more." I said and she nodded her head. "Now, I think I am going to have to meditate for a while and focus on my realm to gather more energy for tonight. Thank you for breakfast Sookie." I said and stood up to head outside.
"What happens tonight?" Jason called as I went for the back door, I paused and grinned over my shoulder.
"Tonight I'm going to take the ward off of you." I answered and Jason eyes widened slightly but I still grinned and headed outside towards the forest. I was excited to do some magic that I only ever read about. I sat down once I was farther in the trees so I wouldn't be seen from the house and layed down on the ground letting my eyes slip shut. I took a deep breath and let my mind slip away once I started to feel the hum of the magic around me.
I'd be forever grateful if you'd take a few minutes to review! Thanks!
