I had almost given up hope; when I noticed a small spec of color emerging from the edge of the pillow case. I lifted the pillow to find a lavender match case with a gold crown emblem. I knew this sign well it was an underground vampire club used by elite members as a means of hosting their dinner guest; well the guest was actually the dinner.

"What did you find?"Sookie said hovering over me staring at the object with a clueless expression.

"Do you want to save your brother?" I said knowing the answer. She would do anything to save her brother even risk her own life, and at the current moment that is exactly what I needed her to do.

"What do I have to do?" she stood rigid dreading my words.

"I need you to act like I have compelled you to be my dinner guest to an underground vampire club." I paused, because I was most defiantly going to enjoy the next part. "And I need to take some your blood to make it look authentic." I said the last part beaming as I watched her expression grow pale.

This time she rode with me; saying little she rested her head on the headrest and stared out the window.

"Thank you, for helping me I know that you could just write Jason off and it would never matter to anyone. Well except me, but he is all the family I have left." She said turning to meet my eyes. Her words where so sincere, and unexpected that they made my pulse race. What was it about this woman that set my senses on fire? At every possible moment she surprised me, and put me off balance.

"You're welcome" I said simply keeping my eyes focused on the road. We pulled into a warehouse parking lot that at first glance looked ordinary. The only sign that it existed was the lavender sign with the gold crown that hung above the mangled door. I knocked once and the bouncer cracked the door I dropped my fangs and drew Sookie in even closer to me. He opened the door only wide enough for us to squeeze through; I wrapped my arm around Sookie pulling her even closer to me. Her curves molded to my side warming my cold skin. I wanted these sharks to know that she was mine; that they could never touch her. We found one of the many crimson sofas that lined the club and sat down. She looked around nervously watching the many vampires and their so called "donor's" in action. I grabbed her waist and placed her on my lap and pulled her face to mine.

"Kiss me" I whispered softly into her ear. "You have to make it look real; there watching" I said pressing tiny kisses down her golden tanned neck. I once again focused on her eyes that were now filled with an intensity that mesmerized me. Fire fueled my veins as I took her lips kissing her with passion that had haunted me all night. She tangled her fingers in my hair pressing her body in to mine returning my passion. I groaned if I didn't pull away soon I was going to have her right her on the couch for the rest of the vultures to watch. I slowly pulled back trying to gain composure; there was still one thing that I needed to do to deflect attention from us.

"Sookie, I need to take some of you blood now." I said softly again into her ear. Now feeling somewhat remorseful about the situation she was in.

"Will it hurt?" she said placing her head on my shoulder giving herself to me completely. Her heavy breathes further intoxicating me to the point of insanity.

"Only for a second, some people even find it pleasurable." My fangs dropped as I removed her silk hair from her neck. I dragged my fangs up the side up her neck giving her goose bumps; I would make her enjoy this even crave it. I took only enough to keep up appearances then pricked my finger and ran it over her wounds.

"See that wasn't so bad." I said settling her beside me again. She looked puzzled as she stared off into space.

"Are you ok?" I said worried she is in some sort of shock.

"You see the older man in the corner that is hovering over that boy?" she pointed to the corner where indeed a much older man was feeding on what looked like a boy in his late teens.

"He knows where Jason is." She said her eyes fixated on the boy across the room.

"How do you know that?" I stared at her baffled.
