Pam froze when she heard the familiar sound of her maker having sex. She sighed and then frowned when she spotted Yvetta flirting with one of the other vampires.
"Yvetta" she called and the brunette looked at her.
"Come on Cupcake" she said and the pretty brunette followed Pam. Pam frowned and opened her maker's office door slightly and stood there in shock when she saw the girl he was shagging. Keely lay on the ground with her legs around his waist as he pounded into her, groaning and making her scream slightly at every thrust. Pam silently shut the door and led Yvetta to the basement where the two began having their own fun as Pam tried to get the image of Keely and Eric fucking out of her head.
A few nights later Keely woke with Eric's arm around her waist. She rolled into his arms and saw him looking at her and sighed.
"Why is it that you and Pam are always awake before me?" she pouted and he smiled and kissed her pouted lips.
"Because you are still only a baby" he said and she sighed and he got up and watched her dress with a smirk. She smiled at him and then leaned down and gently kissed him. She was about to ask him if he'd take her out for the night when he stiffened.
"I need you to help Pam at the bar tonight ok" he said and she nodded and he kissed her and vanished. Keely smiled and nodded as Pam left to go and powder her nose. Keely paused as she felt the power enter the bar. Expecting it to be Eric, she looked up with a smile which quickly vanished when she saw the Magistar across the room and without him seeing, she ran to find Pam.
"We have to call Eric" Pam said and handed Keely her phone.
"I'll keep them busy, you get Eric" she said and Keely nodded and used the secret passage and entered the basement, quickly dialling her maker's number.
"What?" he asked.
"We're being raided" she said.
"So? Bring the American Vampire League, they'll get the human police to leave. I'm busy love" he said and she sighed as she heard the Magister arguing with Pam and things been smashed.
"It's not the Police, it's the Magister" she said.
"I'm on my way" he replied and she sighed.
"Don't be stupid Eric, get out while you still can" she replied as they used the only language she knew fluently, French.
"It's a trap Eric. The Queen set you up" she said and then heard the door open and hung up as Pam was pushed down the stairs, slightly stumbling in her heels.
"Come, come out where ever you are" the Magistar said as he walked down the stairs and looked at her.
"Magister what a pleasant surprise" she said sweetly and saw Pam looking at her.
"There's nothing pleasant about this" he said and reached into an unfamiliar blue plastic box. She gasped when he lifted out a tube of blood.
"This is blasphemy" he said and she looked at him, fearfully. The last time he had been this angry, she had woken up with fangs.
"Take her" he ordered and she gasped as she was grabbed and she screamed as silver chains were locked around her arms and she was held up to the same equipment Lafayette had been chained to.
"I forget you are only a baby, oh well" he said and she saw Pam trying to get free of the men holding her back. Pam gasped as did Keely when he ripped off her blouse, leaving her in only her black, lace bra.
"Ahh!" she screamed as the Magister ran a silver tipped cane down her exposed skin, making it burn and bleed. Pam growled as she was tied to a chair as Keely was tortured by the sick Magister.
"Let her go!" Keely heard Eric roar and she stayed chained up, in pain, whimpering and crying.
"I am who you want but I have been framed" he snarled as she whimpered and Pam struggled.
"Oh, you've got the wrong man. My dog ate my homework. It's not mine it's for a friend. Excuses are one thing I can assure you, do not get better with age" the Magistar sneered.
"Do you deny the blood was being sold in your area?" the man asked, as Pam struggled against the vampire's holding her, desperate to help her baby sister, who would take a few minutes longer than her to heal from the Magister's torture.
"Not on my orders" Eric replied and Pam and Keely looked at the Magistar.
"Then on whose? Your Queen's?" he asked and Eric frowned slightly. Keely began whimpering as the thing she was chained to was turned around and Eric gaped and stared at her, when he saw the unhealed wounds on her exposed skin.
"What should it be Sheriff? Desecration of the blood or treason against your regent?" he man smirked as Keely came to a stop behind him. Keely began to whimper louder as he turned and looked at her.
"Both among the most dire of crimes..." he began and Keely screamed as he dragged the silver tipped cane down from the valley between her breast to just near the fasteners of her bra. Pam began to struggle as Eric rushed forwards as her scream and pain tore at his no-longer-working heart. Eric mentally panicked for an excuse the man would believe.
"It was Bill Compton!" Keely screamed through her pain and he and Pam looked at her.
"It's true, he's gone missing" Eric agreed, mentally thanking his beautiful, fast-thinking brown haired progeny for her perfect fake culprit.
"You've seen how easily he betrays our kind for his own gain. I believe he is behind this and I'm gathering evidence to bring him to you" Eric said and they both looked at the crying Keely.
"Now let me finish my work" Eric said and Keely whimpered when the Magistar looked back at her.
"They say the loss of a child is the deepest of despair, but you have got two" the man said and Eric and Keely's eyes locked.
"Two day's Mr. Northman or she dies" he said and Keely gasped with a small sob when he pulled off the silver cap and she saw the sharp, silver blade.
"The true death" he threatened and Eric and Keely looked at each other.
"I'll be back love, I swear" Eric said and then blew her and Pam both kisses and then vanished.
"Let her go! She's just a baby" Pam begged as the Magister stared, lustfully at Keely who was barley coconscious from his torture.
"Which makes it all the more fun to torment her" the Magister replied and Pam gasped as he put the silver lid back on the Blade and with a final, drag of it across Keely's skin, making her scream, she was taken down and with silver chains locked to a table. Pam was placed beside her sister, still chained to the chair as Keely finally lost coconsciousness.
"I'm so sorry Keely, I should have gotten you out" she whimpered and then sat in the chair, waiting and praying that Keely would heal from her wounds before the Magister came back to inflict more.
"...I confess. I sold the blood at my Queen's command and accused Bill to protect her. What do I do now?" Eric admitted.
"Unless I give the Magister Compton, he'll murder my youngest Progeny and possibly my other as well" Eric said, admittedly terrified at the thought of losing either of his girls.
"Darling, it's so sad" said the King of Mississippi, Russell Edgerton's, consort, Talbot. The King stood and growled.
"Magistar...nasty little...masochistic little shit...the only power he has over us, is the power we give him" Russell said and Eric nodded.
"There may be a way to solve all of our problems. Sleep here" Russell said and Eric nodded.
"You are more than welcome" Talbot added.
"How can I refuse?" he smirked and Russell smirked back.
"He's going to kill Pam?" Bill asked and Eric sighed.
"Keely" he said and Bill gaped, as stubborn and awful as the brunette was, she meant the world to his own progeny, who would most likely kill herself if anything were to happen to Keely.
"I should never have left her alone" Eric muttered and Bill frowned.
"I admit that Sookie is no longer mine and you don't want to rub that in my face?" Bill asked and Eric sighed.
"I want Keely and Keely is now in danger, as is Pam" he said and left the room, leaving Bill in stunned silence.
"...Sir, I have my two girls in the bony hands of the Magistar. If you could help me..." he began.
"All in good time Eric" the man replied and Eric nodded and moved aside to let the man pass. Eric gasped and quickly pulled out his hone.
"Keely?" he asked.
"Eric" he heard Pam whisper.
"How did you...?" he began.
"Ginger, Eric you need to hurry up, after you left the Magistar chained Keely to a table. She's unconscious Eric and she still hasn't woken" she said and he gasped.
"That's not normal" he said.
"I know. Ginger tried to give her blood but Keely didn't respond to it at all. We tired with Michael and she still didn't. There's something wrong Eric. She should have woken up by now" she whispered.
"I know, I have a plan but it will take time" he said.
"I don't know how much time she has. If the Magister comes back and tries to hurt her again...Eric I don't think she's going to make it. She's barley two years old" she cried.
"I know, I know. Keep trying with Michael and Ginger" he said and hung up. He felt his eyes prickle slightly and sighed.
"Is Keely ok?" he heard Talbot's voice ask and sighed.
"She was tortured by the Magister. She's only two years old. My older progeny said she still hasn't woken" he said and Talbot gasped.
"I'll tell Russell to make her top priority but if she hasn't woken up then I'm not sure it will make much difference. Baby vampire's don't necessarily need the true death to die" he said gently and Eric felt a blood tear leave his eye.
"You love her" Talbot guessed and Eric sighed.
"I think I am starting to. Before she was just my progeny but now...now I don't know" he admitted and then allowed the man to give him the full tour, to take his mind off Keely, or at least try to. A few hours later he stood beside Sookie as he tried to talk the King into keeping her at the manor. She and Bill had been found and brought to the manor and Eric now had some kind of leverage, he just had to figure out a way to use her and save his girls.
"...Godric to save you, I would love to take Keely's advice and rip you open and wear your ribcage as a hat" Lorena snarled at a stunned Sookie before she walked out.
"Please tell me you were doing that for the King's benefit" Sookie said and looked at him. Neither one of them wanted to touch on the idea of Keely actually being serious about Sookie's ribcage.
"I don't think anyone plays the King of Mississippi and gets away with it" he replied and she nodded.
"And I certainly have no intentions of trying" Eric said and Sookie gasped as he pushed her around and towards the library.
"Why are you even here? I thought you had other things to deal with" she asked as they walked.
"Yeah, I do and I need to think so please don't take this the wrong way but shut up" he replied.
"Eric, please I'm being you, please..." she began and he wrapped his arm around her head, covering her mouth.
"Thank you" he said and she rolled her eyes.
"...you big phoney. Big hat, no cattle" she said as she sat in the library and he paced in front of her.
"Do you mind, I'm trying to think here" he replied.
"I thought you said my life was too valuable to throw away" she said and he looked at her.
"You are valuable, that's very clear. Just not sure why" he said.
"'Sookie, I'm risking everything to tell you this because you mean so much to me, you make me feel almost human'" she said, mimicking his voice and she gasped when he was suddenly in front of her.
"You mean nothing to me. Understand. Nothing" he growled.
"Keely could be dying at this very second and right now, she means a damn sight more to me than you do, you will ever do" he said and she looked at him.
"I'm very close to getting something I've wanted since I was still human. Do not get in my way" he growled and she looked at him, fearfully.
"I hate your fucking guts, Eric Northman. I promise I will pay you back for this" she spat as he began pacing again.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. A husband's work is never done" Russell's voice said and Eric turned with a fake smile.
"Leave us" Russell said and Eric nodded.
"As you wish" he said and Sookie watched him leave.
