Hello everyone. I am so glad you are all still here and enjoying this story. I really am thinking about returning to you. BOLD is Swedish. Here is another one. Read. Review. Follow!
Crabcat: Awesome review! I love it! Yes it is totally odd she still calls him brother isn't it? I am still playing around with their relationship! Also I do apologize for the rushyness of the last chapter but I really haven't been feeling passionate about True Blood as of late. I am hoping to change that!
VampireElf: So glad you are sticking around! I can't wait to bring a little action into this story for you!
Chapter 25:
Eric followed me into the shower moments later, wrapping his long arms around me. I had waited so long to have him all to myself and I was hoping it would last. If only so that I could feel true happiness for a short time.
"I must see to some business back at Fangtasia." He whispered to me as he ran his fingers down my side. "If I do not leave soon I fear I may not leave at all."
"Yes well I am sure I could keep you busy." I grinned as he rested his head on my shoulder. "I am okay Eric. You can go."
I hated the idea of ever being away from my viking but he was a powerful figure among the vamps in this area so I could not hold him back from it.
"I will come back as soon as I am able." He said as he rushed from the shower at vampire speed. I giggled to myself. I had hoped that the smiles he had for me when he had forgotten himself would stick. I longed to make him happy.
After my shower I threw on a white camisole and black jeans, pulling my hair into a pony tail. I hoped today would be a normal day where I didn't have to use magic or save a life.
When I thought about it, really thought I could understand only part of myself. I knew what I was and who I was but I was changing. All the Fae I knew were lost to me and I felt as if I was drowning.
"Good morning Oliver. I trust you and Eric left on good terms?" He asked, already knowing the answer.
"You are so full of it Godric. You know how Eric and I left it." I stuck out my tongue at him and went about making us some food. I was thinking pancakes and eggs.
"I just want you both to be happy." He said, texting as he spoke to me. I wondered who he was texting? And when had he gotten a cell phone? Maybe I had just been to busy to notice it. Maybe I had been neglecting him?
"Why are you smiling like that? Who are you talking to?" I pried.
"Sookie was just asking about you. She said she was worried. I am just telling her that you and Eric have been hiding away up there a while." He teased knowing I would be upset about it.
"Damn you! I wasn't ready to tell her yet!" I fake huffed. "I could have lead her to believe that Eric and I were fighting again or I don't know. You ruin all my fun!" I had the urge to play with Sookie sometimes. She always had the best reactions.
"Hide your faerie ways and get over there. She wants to speak with you." He told me as he took a pancake from the plate next to me. "I must go into town and get a gift for someone. I will return soon enough."
I nodded to him as he left the house quickly. Pulling out my phone I threw I text to Sookie.
Me: Hey lady. Why don't you come over here? I made pancakes.
Sookie: Sure thing. Can't wait to hear all about Eric!
Me: OMG so not sharing!
Sookie arrived half an hour later and joined me at my table. She looked tired and a little bit thinner then the last time we spoke and I began to worry a bit.
"Sookie what is it?" I asked her, "Is Bill hurting you? I could go over there and zap his ass." I said, shoving eggs into my mouth.
"No no... Well I mean I guess but it isn't what you think it is." She said quickly.
"Well what the hell? I don't mean to be rude but you look like shit." I wasn't feeling eager to run out and use magic.
"Bill left. I mean I just got him back and he left! He said something about a job he couldn't refuse and that was it." She said, a tear running down her cheek.
"Shit Sook I am sorry to hear that. Are you going to be okay?" I asked her. I knew she would be but I was trying to be friendly. I looked back to me breakfast and dumped syrup all over it.
"Wow Olive sweet tooth much?" She asked, wiping the tear from her cheek. "Look I know Bill... I really feel like something is going on here."
"Like what? Maybe he need to move on from him. Maybe it is for the best?" I wasn't terribly fond of the vampire but I had never questioned his love for my friend. But if I was being really honest I didn't want to go gallivanting around town looking for a dead guy when I had just recovered.
"I cannot just move on Oliver Northman! I love him. He told me he would never leave me and then this? A job? No I don't think he is doing it of his own free will. Someone is doing this to him..." She was getting worked up, more tears falling now. God I couldn't stand the tears!
"Alright well what do you want to do about it?" It was fair to say I couldn't let her go running of into a nest of vampires alone. Goddam Faerie always pulling me into more bull shit. If I hadn't promised to look after her I would take Eric and run. Loving her wouldn't stop me.
"I was hoping to ask Eric if he could help us. He loves you and if you asked then maybe..." She trailed off, waiting for me to answer her.
"Sookie... I haven asked a lot of Eric already. I really think that maybe this is something we need to think about. He is so busy..." I wouldn't really feel that bad asking but I knew he would accept and he really did have things to do.
"I know I just... I love him and I need to know he isn't being compelled or something. Maybe Lorena did something..." Her eyes grew large as she tried to use guilt against me.
"You realize I haven't had one damn break since I moved here? Honestly Sookie I am so damn tired. I just want a few weeks off." I ran my hands into my hair and sighed loudly. "Maybe there is someone else who can help you."
"You are the only one powerful enough to keep me safe... And If it comes down to it... Bill." She really wouldn't let up would she?
"Fine. But do not think I am happy about this. You. Owe. Me." I pointed at her. I would get my damn two weeks off if it killed me in the process.
"I certainly can live with that." She grinned at me as she to ate some pancakes.
After we had eaten I sent her home to get some rest. I wouldn't start looking until we were both up to it. Also I had to get Eric to help her. This was not making me feel good at all. I just started having real moments with him and now I had to use him for Sookie's crap.
As I lay on the couch going over everything I received a message from Eric.
Eric: I would like to see you tonight. Fangtasia?
Me: Sure.
Eric: Wonderful. I cannot wait to see you.
I figured I would go when it became dark out, this would leave me enough time to sleep away the day on the couch watching Maury. I seemed to love this thing called reality television.
When I opened my eyes it had become dark out. It was only around seven so I decided to get some nice clothes on and meet Eric at Fangtasia.
Sookie: Are you going to ask Eric?
Me: I am meeting him in a bit.
Sookie: Tell me as soon as you know. I can't sleep!
Me: I will.
I place my phone on the dresser and pulled open my closet door. I found a dress covered in lace and made from a nice cotton blend. I tugged it over my head letting it fall to just above my knees as always. I grabbed some grey wool socks that went thing high and my black boots. I even decided tonight I would have my hair down.
I looked at myself in the mirror and liked what I saw. Although there were still bags under my eyes I still felt beautiful. I feared Eric would always make me feel that way. I wasn't complaining, he was the man I loved.
I arrived at Fangtasia, heading in the front door and past Pamela. She greeted me, telling me that Eric was waiting on his throne.
I went in and straight to the bar. I grabbed a few drinks on my own as I felt eyes on me. I knew they were Eric's but he could wait while I relaxed a bit. He could have me all he wanted later.
"I fear you are impatient tonight." I said, knowing he would hear me. In a moment he was at my side, his eyes trailed down my chest. "I knew you wouldn't wait. So predictable." I teased him.
"Yes well you smell so damn good tonight. How could I resist?" He gave my a wide grin as he watched me finish my drink.
"How did the vampy business go?" I asked him, trying to make small talk.
"I have information I wish to share with you. I assume Sookie has contacted you?" He asked me, he knew something?
"Yep. Did she call you or something? I told her to leave it alone.. No one bloody listens to me do they?" I said, not waiting for him to answer me.
"She did not call me. Bill called me." He said serisously. I knew this was going to be a doozy. "We should speak privately." He motioned towards the office.
Once inside I took a seat on his desk facing him. I knew it would be distracting but I was so much more interested in him then this stupid bull shit with Bill that I didn't care.
"Bill called you?" I asked impatiently..
"Yes. It seems There is a matter I must attend to in Mississippi." He knew I would be a little irked that we had just began our time together and he had to leave.
"Okay? So what about Bill?" I asked him, confused now.
"The king there has been pining after you and Sookie. He wants your blood... Among other things." He sighed as he pulled his chair a bit closer to me, taking my boots off and dropping them to the floor.
"So what? I can take care of us." No vampire would be able to hurt Sookie if I was around to say something about it.
"I will protect you Oliver. I plan to go there and help Bill kill this king. I do not wish for you to place yourself anywhere near this. You must convince Sookie to wait this out." His hand ran slowly up my leg, towards my inner thighs.
"I have no issue staying behind. I could use the break, you know that... But Sookie is stubborn and I made promises I cannot brake." I told him as I closed my eyes a moment. I was trying to forget that he was attempting to seduce me while we were having an important conversation.
"I would ask you to hold her here as long as you can while I go and deal with this situation." I felt his fingers trail back towards my outer thighs as he pulled me a bit closer to the edge of his desk. He pushed my dress up with them as his eyes met my own.
"Mmmm... I will try." I said weakly as I let the conversation float away, replacing it with only Eric.
He did not get out of the chair but instead he swivled closer to me as he moved to kiss my thighs lightly. I felt the heat grow and myself become wet. I couldn't contain my need for this man even if I wanted to. He made me feel...
"So long Oliivi..." He whispered against my trembling legs. "So long I waited to have you.." I felt goose bumps form as his kisses came closer to my core. My dress was dangerously close to being around my waist as his hands moved to pull my legs further apart. His eyes directed down below the entire time.
"Eric..." I whimpered as his teeth extended and scraped along my leg. His eyes looked up to me as I said his name silently asking permission. I ran my hand through his hair as he sank his teeth deep into me. I moaned and held onto him as he drank from me, taking long pulls.
He retracted his teeth and continued to kiss me until he pulled me into his face, causing me to lay back on the desk in front of him. I was on display and I didn't care. He always made me feel safe no matter where we were. I let the feeling of his tongue take over my senses as I shifted closer to his face.
He pulled my aching clit into his mouth and sucked on it as he looked up towards me, making eye contact. I swear to gods my heart stopped in that moment as I cried out his name. My orgasm washing over me as he lapped up the results.
"So beautiful.." He said as he stood in front of me, undoing his zipper. I knew I would let this man have me anytime he wanted. I wouldn't turn him away ever again. I was stuck now.
I sat up and helped him remove his jeans as I took him in my hands, guiding him into me slowly. His hand came into my hair as he pulled me closer to him, kissing me deeply. "You have no idea how sexy you arm when I make you cum.." He whispered against my lips. His tongue taking over my mouth as he pushed himself inside me.
I felt his teeth again against my neck as he began to gain speed and I didn't wait for him to make a move. The smell of sex and blood had hit my nose and my own teeth had made an appearance. I pulled his head telling him that it was alright as he bit down once again. At the same moment I sunk my teeth into his chest allowing myself to feel every inch of my viking.
He was groaning as I felt my release take hold, crying out loudly as I pulsed against him. I closed my eyes tightly as I allowed it to wash over me.
"Ollivii!" He cried out as he followed me down the rabbit hole.
As we came down and opened our eyes we were unable to see. A bright light had taken over my vision and I was unable to stop it. It burned like I had spilled hot sauce on every part of myself as I gripped Eric tighter to me.
"Eric?" I asked, scared that I had no idea what my magic was doing this time. Just another new thing to worry about among many others. I whimpered into his chest as he held me tight.
"What is happening?" He questioned as he moved back, pulling away from me. The burning stopped instantly, a wave of fresh cool air enveloped me. What the hell? Where had the air come from!
"I don't know. Dammit I have no idea half the time what is going on with me. I am sorry Eric..." I said as I pulled my dress back into place. "I should go speak with Sookie." My cheeks were red and hot and I just felt the need to run.
"Oliver..."
"I am not leaving you Eric I just have to go explain all this Bill and the king shit to Sookie. I will be here when you get back." I came back to him and kissed him on the cheek. "I love you." I said as I turned and left his office.
I hadn't said I love you to him other then as his sister and it felt nice. In that moment I had known truth. The one and only thing I could truly be sure of.
