Jazmyne's POV
My heartbeat quickened when I turned around to see a pale, dark-haired man walk through the door. I could tell that this male was definitely not human. He went to sit in Sookies', my sister, section and I gulped. I hoped that she would be okay. She smiled nervously before moving to take his order.
I saw the Ratts move to sit behind him and overheard them thinking about draining him. I then new for sure that he was actually a vampire. I sent Sookie a thought, warning her of the Ratts plans. She nodded towards me. Later that night the vampire left and the Ratts soon followed.
Sookie and I rushed out to stop them. When we got there the sight was horrifying. The Ratts were draining the vampire and we had to stop them. We ran over to stop them and I started to punch them both. I didn't do much but I drew their attention.
Sookie gave the vampire some of her blood to save him while I dealt with the Ratts. They ran off soon after wards. I found out that the vampires name was Bill Compton. The next few nights he stopped by to visit Sookie. One night he came inside to speak with Sookie and I. I merely nodded to him and waved. He said that he wanted to take us to a bar called Fangtasia.
I scoffed at the name as I changed clothes. I put on a red sundress that ended just above my knees and I put on black sandals. I decided to leave my hair down in loose curls. When I walked downstairs Sookie and Bill were in a deep conversation. I heard a name, a name that sounded all too familiar.
I wandered if it was the same man from my dreams. So we got into Bill's car and headed to Shreveport. Once we pulled into the parking lot of Fangtasia, we walked into the bar. Sookie was carded but not me. You see, I've always looked older than I am.
Even though I'm only 21 I look about 24. Sookie is the opposite. She is 27 but looks about 19 or 20 years of age. I was looking around the room when I noticed a throne sitting on a stage. On the throne I saw a man. I was shocked, it was the man I have been seeing in my dream! I recognized that short blonde hair, tall build and muscular frame. Let's not forget those eyes either; such an intense blue that was naturally hypnotizing. I was elbowed in the ribs by Sookie, in which I glared at her.
"It's rude to stare Jazzy!" I looked at her before telling her telepathically, ' He's one of the guys that's been in my dreams!' Bill scowled at the man, showing extreme distaste. I looked over again to see him looking at me in surprise. His expression quickly changed to a smirk as he motioned for us to go to him. I unconsciously blushed at the heated stare he was giving me. Once we got to him I saw how tall he was. I'm guessing around 6'4" while I am only 5'3".
He kept his gaze on me as I studied the setup of the bar but he spoke to Bill. "Bill it has been a while, how goes the mainstreaming?" I could hear the smirk in his voice and I just wished he would continue to talk for his baritone voice was very attractive. I took notice to how the wood furniture he has is a dark oak, " Well, look at him. How ya think it's going?" Sookie stared at me in horror as I continued to be my normal sarcastic and witty self. Eric seemed merely amused by it as Bill glared at me.
" What is it Compton? Do you not like my pretty face?" As I said that I lolled my head to the side, smirking at him and arching a slender brow. " Jazmyne, you need to behave yourself." I rolled my eyes, " Alright mom." I heard Eric snort. " I think you and I shall get along quite well. Now, for why I asked you here Ms. Stackhouse, I am in need of your services." I looked at Sookie as she seemed worried about that and Bill pulled her closer to him.
" What is it, Eric?" I could hear the distaste in her voice and that made me frown. ' Why do I feel agitated that Sook doesn't like Eric? What the hell is going on?' I noticed as they talked about us going to help him find a missing vampire sheriff in Dallas that he never once took his eyes off me. Does he feel the pull too? As we were leaving his office after deciding that we would leave tomorrow and that Bill would come with us in a travel coffin, Eric had me stay in his office. Sookie looked at me in worry, " I'll be fine sis. Stop worrying so much, you'll get wrinkles." She smiled at that and nodded. Once we were alone the atmosphere changed, it felt more charged; almost like it was extremely intimate between us. He was suddenly standing above me and I was laying on his red couch.
" I have waited for you for quite some time lover." I looked at him confused, " the fuck are you talking about?" He chuckled as he caressed my cheek in his large calloused hand, " It is quite a big deal. My maker and I have been searching for you for quite some time. You complete our beings. You are our third." " third?" He nodded, " yes, it is rare for vampires but you are mine and my makers mate. " I blinked at him, shocked as I heard him say that.
