Tara's P.O.V
I was cuurrently laying on top of Pam. We had since moved our love making from the bathroom to bedroom then to the downstairs basement. We didn't have to worry about anybody seeing us Eric and Nora's smells where distance and faint.
My body ached from all the love making we had done. At one point I broke her nose while thrusting into her hot and hungry mouth. I was mortified at my actions but Pam wore a cocky smirk on her bloody lips at her nose healed.
I started to sit up placing my hands on either side of Pam's Sleep infused body. She threw a lazy and heavy arm on my back mumbling,
"And where do you think you are going?" She asked groggily.
"I am going to get some clothes before somebody comes in on us." I snapped laughing a little.
"Let them dare look and they will be missing a few limbs and a head." She growled. I felt her start to stir.
I sat up and wrapped by legs around her waist looking into her pale blue-grey eyes, getting lost in them.
"Ladies?" I heard the unmistakable timbre of Kristin's voice from the top of the stairs.
Pam cursed a blue streak as she got up pulling me with her. I laughed and rushed to get gather some clothes and pick up the shredded of my other clothes that had been tore off after barely putting them on.
I threw on some white skin tight jeans, a black corset and some high heeled black boots. I turned and saw that Pam had put on some black leather pants and a purple and black corset with a pair dangerously wicked black pumps.
I grinned as I watched her fix her mad sex hair and run some lip stick over her plump lips. I climbed the stairs coming to halt as I saw Jessica and Kristin in throws of severe making out. I cleared my throat and they broke apart so fast looking so embarrassed.
I laughed as I walked over to the bar and pulled out two bottles of Tru Blood a new shipment that had just cam in, one AB-, which I knew was Pam's favorite, and a O- for me. I twisted the caps as Pam came up the stairs glaring daggers at the redheads.
I smirked as I walked back over to her and gave her the AB-. She took it and nodded at me but before she could take a swig Kristin was in front of her snarling, her fangs dropping so fast it was like the just appeared from thin air.
I heard the bottle shatter against the wall before I even saw Pam's now empty hand clawing at dead air were her bottle used to be.
"What the fuck was that for?!" Pam snarled, her eyes boring holes into the redheads violet ones.
"When did you get the Tru Blood?" Kirstin asked not even bothering to answer Pam's last question.
" About two days ago." I answered. Kristin turned her gaze to me placing out a hand motioning to the bottle in my hand.
I handed it to slowly. She brought the bottle mouth to her nose and inhaled deeply, closing her eyes for a second. She nodded her head as if to confirm something she had been thinking.
"Dispose of the whole case and any others you have in the back. No matter how long ago you got them." She said to me.
"Why?" Pam asked raising an eyebrow.
"Just do it," She snarled," I'll explain it later when Eric and that insufferable bitch of his gets here."
"If I am gonna waste good money then I fucking better get a damn good reason why!" Pam snapped back, her eyes glowing hotly.
Kristin turned on Pam and roared," It's poisoned!"
I froze looking at Pam in horror, my end of the bond slipped and my fear went slamming into her end. Her eyes locked on mine and she winced at the power of it.
Kristin pulled her fangs in and leaned against the bar covering her face with her hands. Her hair was in a messy bun and she had on cut denim jeans and a tank top. Her shoulder were tense and they flexed powerfully as she ran her hands through her hair repeatedly in a agitated manner.
I walked over to Pam and grabbed her hand tightly in mine.
"It gonna be okay you didn't drink any of it." I said soothingly.
"Fucking governor." She growled as she fixed her hair with her free hand and ran a finger down her neck tapping lightly.
"Yeah, fucking governor." I agreed.
I heard the door open and my nose was hit with the smell of winter and sea, moss and honey as Eric and Nora came vamp speeding in. Eric was wearing blue jeans and a black wife beater and leather jacket. While Nora had on a pair of dark jeans and a white tank and jacket with what seemed like a million pocket.
They stopped before the bar studying us. Jessica went over to Kristin and wrapped her arm around the women's shoulder and rubbed circles in her shoulder. The room was tense and electrified with all of the vampires uneasiness.
But then always has to be that one person to mess up the moment and that said person was Nora.
"What the fuck is wrong with you all?" She said her voice smug.
"Shut it Nora." Pam spat tensing.
"Pam." Eric warned, his voice low and steady.
" Can we all shut the fuck up and let Kristin speak." Jessica said flustered as she continued to rub the redheads shoulder.
"Nobody asked for your input you fuck twat." Nora spat at the younger vampire.
'Oh boy big mistake, big, huge!' I thought.
I felt the air thicken as Kristin raised her head slowly. Her eyes flared with a furious vengeance as they leveled with the brunette. Her fangs clicked again and just seeing those four wickedly sharp and extremely long fangs had me gripping Pam's hand harder. I shuddered as the look the redhead had in her eyes.
The power that was coming off her was overpowering. The redheads indomitable power seeped out her pores like an invisible sweat. Her eye twitched as her lips pulled back in a snarl.
It was about to get real serious, real fast.' damnnit Nora, do you not know when to keep that flapper of your closed?'
Pam's P.O.V
I rolled my eyes at Nora's stupidity. ' Damn that British bitch didn't know when to quit' I thought. I could feel the redhead fury as she locked gazes with Nora. Her fangs slide down and her mouth curled in a furious snarl.
I looked on feeling my progenies hand tighten in my own. Fear streaked down out bond, I countered with wash of calm. Tara body seemed to relax a bit but she didn't let up on the death grip of my hand.
Kristin suddenly sprang at the brunette, she jumped clear across the room to were Nora and Eric where standing. Her feet colliding with the women's chest and the force had the redhead riding Nora like a skateboard clear across the room. It happened so fast Eric and Nora didn't have time to react. Nora's head hit the wall with a horrible thump.
The air was knocked out of her and I winced, I could feel the power of the impact my damn self. Kristin was lording over her, a foot placed on her throat, she kneeled down and picked the women up by the hair. Nora screamed as she was flung into the wall. The redhead had her by the neck lifting her until her her feet dangled.
"Take it back you British asskissing cunt." The redhead snarled.
I giggled as little at the name but it was cut short when both Eric and Tara looked at me with daggers.
I raised an eyebrow in mock surprise. The redheads hand Nora's throat tightened dangerously.
"Im...I'm sorry." The brunette garbled looking at Kristin.
"I'm not the one you should be apologizing to."
The brunette roated her now bulging brown eyes to Jessica,
"I am sorry Jessica. "
Jessica nodded with a scowl on her face.
The redhead dropped the women like a sack of potatoes.
"Get. Out." The redhead said punctuated to Nora.
"But...but what. .." the brunette started to ask.
The redhead was suddenly hovering over Noras trembling frame her face dark with rage,
"Get out or so help me I might not be responsible for what happens next," she reached out and grabbed the brunette by her jacket hoisting her up until they where at eye level with eaxhe other."Eric will fill you in."
She let her go shoving her towards the door. Nora looked back once and Kristin snarled loudly. She shoved the door open and vamp sped out screaming into the night.
Kristin slumped and walked over back to Jessica hopping on the bar, sitting cross legged on the counter.
"Eric? " the redhead asked quietly.
"Yes ancient one?"
"I am not gonna say that I am sorry about what I did to her."
"I know. She had no right to insult her like that. I will most definitely talk to her about respecting her elders and their mates. " he growled, bowing slightly to the redheads.
In a furly of winter and sea the tall Viking blonde raced out to find Nora.
"So... that was fun. " I drawled dryly, ignoring the nudge my progeny gave me.
Kristin started to laugh her shoulders shaking with mirth.
"M'lady you always know what to say to make something bad fun. Don't ever change hun!"
"Don't plan on it anytime soon. " I said smiling a little.
"So what's with the Tru Blood?" Tara asked.
The redhead looked up at Tara and pierced her with those unusually colored violet eyes. But no anger was held in them anymore, the usually ferice redhead looked just plan tierd and worn out.
"The dearly departed governor had been working on something that would make vampires sick, and eventually die, horrible slow messy deaths."
"How is that even possibly?!" Tara shouted.
"That I do not know little one, all I know is that it is called Hepatitis V and its some sick shit. It was on the news this morning. While all of you slept I stayed up to check the news on the governors death and other shit about him." She said running her hands over her thighs.
"Well fuck me," I said switching from one foot to the other, "So what the fuck are we going to do about this?"
"I don't know how many vampires have already consumed this vile drink. I mean how do you guys eve stand to drink that shit, before the whole poison thing?"
"I prefer the real thing. " I stated factually.
"Hey, its what the human's have tried to do to stop us from feeding on them." Jessica chimed in.
"Stupid human's. " I growled.
"You used to be human Missy Pam." Tara interjected.
"Operative word is used to be." I snapped back.
"What ever. " she grumbled.
The redhead hopped off the bar, landing without a sound. She walked over to where Tara and I stood.
"Open up your bar for the night. I want to study the vampires who come in. I should hope you have actual blood in storage to give out now that tru blood is off the menu."
I nodded, " I will call Ginger in and I hope that you plan on helping. We are a little short staff."
"I can do anything you want me to." The redhead said cracking her knuckles.
"Good, you can help Tara with the bartending tonight. " I looked over at Jessica, "and you can tend to the table's"
The two redheads nodded and went off to change and get ready for later tonight.
'This was going to be really interesting night ' I thought.
Kristin's P.O.V
I was currently sporting a black tank top with Tru Blood scrawled across the front, some blue jeans and a pair of cute wickedly high heels' pam had let me barrow them, no bare feet during working hours.'
I was working behind the bar with Tara. The place was packed and smelled like a bunch of cheap perfume and sex. Loud bass tunes came blaring from the hidden speakers, ans human's and vampires mingled and grinded on eachother. One human and one vampire girl were dancing on poles placed around the club.
Pam was seated regally on her throne, legs crossed watching the people mingled and drink. She had on a red leather off the shoulder dress that barely covered the essentials. Under she had on black fish nets and a pair of studded heels. Makeup was flawlessly done and usual, and her hair was bone straight.
Jessica was zipping around taking orders, and handling trays like a pro. I was proud my little mate. I was currently mixing a Bloody Mary for a adorable baby vamp in front of me. She was trying to literally eye fuck me, but I paid no mind to her advances. I had just placed the drink on the bar collecting the money when I heard a gasp.
My eyes zeroed in Jessica. My blood boiled as I saw a gross man placing a hand on her ass again as she smacked it away in disgust.
I glanced at Pam, she was watching me. An eyebrow raised at me and that's all the green light I needed. I walked out from the bar, making sure my power was on low as I strolled over to where Jessica and the man where.
"Excuse me sir,but please no touching the employees.." I said sweetly as I placed myself slightly in front of Jessica's.
"Shut up bitch. This is between me and that sexy piece of ass behind you. " he snarled.
"Well this ia between you and me." I growled, my fangs itching to come out and play.
"Listen, you're new. I will give you a warning this time sweet tits. I am older than you baby vamp. Didn't your Maker ever teach you to respect your elders? "
Pam, Tara, and Jessica busted up laughing at his comment, for only they knew who old I really was.
"Oh baby fangs,"I chuckled," you sorely out judge my age. Your life and now death is nothing more than half a nanosecond compared to how long I have walked this earth. "
"I doubt that seriously."
"Oh really? " I asked, "How about now." I flashed out and grabbed the man by the throat lifting him with ease. The man clawed at my arm.
"You ginger bitch! " he snarled.
'Okay this guy had balls, I'd give him that' I thought.
"You know that last time somebody called me that, I crushed his head with my hand?"
The mans eyes went wide at my comment, and I dug my nails into his skin until blood flowed. The smell of his blood had my fangs itching to come out and drain him. I clamped my mouth shut and ground my teeth together loudly.
"Kristin. "Jessica said quietly, placing a cool hand on my lower back rubbing circles slowly. I instantly relaxed at her touch.
"Mmmhumm."
"Let him go." She said simply.
"What?! I snorted, my fangs started to pop out.
"I am okay. Don't give into your beast baby. "
"He. Touched. You. " I snarled out.
"I know, bur don't kill him."
"Bur I want to kill him." I all but whined like a little girl.
"I know, but we have bigger fish to fry."
"Fine." I growled, pouting a little. I dropped the man kicking him with a heeled foot.
"Get. Out. Before. I. Change. My. Mind." I punctuated each word with venom. The man scrambled to his feet and vamp sped out the bar. People has started to get back to dancing and drinking. I wondered how many times things like this happened.
I turned to Jeasica and kissed her deepily before saying,
"Thank you mi amor (my love)"
"Thank you for sticking up for me."
"Anyways and forever."
I kissed her one more time before getting back to work behind the bar.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx A few hour's later
I was taking a break because the bar had thinned out some. Jessica was working with Tara and Ginger was working the tables.
I was sitting on Pam's arm chair watching the people mingle and drink.
"Do you love her?" Pam suddenly asked, low enough for only me to hear.
"So much it physically hurts in every fiber in my being."
"Good, she deserves somebody's to love her. She has been through so much. "
"We haven't gotten to that part in our relationship, bur I can sense she has been many a trial and tribulation in her her life."
"Yes indeed she has."
"They are both so strong and wise far beyond their years. "
"If you tell anyone this I will find a way to rip your pretty little head off your body. " she snarled.
"Hey no worry, I know you have to keep your Bad Bitch vibe going." I laughed
"I have learned more from Tara, than I have ever thought I would. She has made me remember my human side, which I had thought was long gone and dead."
"I never had a human side, but both Jessica and Tara have taught me even in the short time that I have been here that I don't always have to be on the defensive side of the fence." I added thoughtfully.
"They have a fire under them that makes every minute we spend with them less like the monsters that we both are, and more of actually people, who just have a very dark side."
"She makes me want to change who I am just to be who she needs in her life."
"I would kill for that little dark skinned beauty."
"As I would too kill for that red headed beauty."I agreed.
We fell into a comfortable silent moment both inthralled by our mates.
I nose suddenly flared with the smell of sickness and death. My fangs popped down so fast it hurt. Pam looked up at me with an eyebrow raised.
"I smell something."
"Does it happen to have a hint of death and filthy blood?" She drawled
"Regretfully."
"Great its not like I didn't just buy these heels."
She stood gracefully and walked down the stairs into the throbbing crowd. I shoved off some desperate fangbangers who tried to sandwitch me between them.
Once I got to bar motioned Tara over to me.
"Go and find Jessica and y'all come out from there."
The question that I knew that was forming on her lips died away when she saw the look in my eye's and my fangs distended.
She nodded and vamp sped to find Jessica.
"Hey! I was waiting for a margarita." A human girl whined.
I locked my gaze on herl,my voice thick and full of Glamour,
"You don't want that drink. You want to go home. "
The girl nodded dumbly and hopped of the bar stool and zombie walked out the door.
'they were taking to long' I thought.
Thats when screams came crashing into my ears over the bass of the club.
"Tara!"
"Jessica."
Both Pam and I yelled at the same time. I took off streaking towards the back door, I jumped over a table sending drinks flying ands customers cursing. I paid them no mind as I rushed the door. It went flying off the hinges as I came cantering out the door.
Pam was right behind me, the smell of death and sickness was so much more powerful. I stopped my charge when I saw that a gang of about 20 vampires turn to face us as they stood huddled around Jessica and Tara. These vampires looked like shit. There eyes were dull and yellow tinged, black veins danced along the exposed skin on their bodies.
Pam tried to pass me her fangs glossing with salvia. I placed a hand up stoping her movements.
" Can I help y'all?" I asked stepping forward, Pam coming next to me.
"Whats it to ya?" One burly guy asked stepping forward.
" Well those young vampires are surrounded by a bunch of y'all. I only assumed that you were in need of some help."
"We are hungry and sick. That Tru Blood made us sick. We are looking for food, the last human town was miles back and we ain't being picky."
"Let them go." Pam said lowly.
"Looky here naw boys, that one has a set of legs on her that go on for miles. Imma have me some fun before I drain the bitch." A fat geezer said.
Tara snarled at the comment and jumped on the man going for his throat. Thats when all hell broke loose. Pam and I streaked forward and grabbed the first two we could ripping heads off.
Black blood spurted from the holes and drenched me. I snarled as I kicked out and stuck my heel in a black headed girl who rushed at me. My heel punctured her chest and stabbed her heart.
She exploded all in my face.I felt another jump on my back trying to bit my neck. I reached around and gabbed a fist full of hair and yanked. The kid yelled as I flung him over my shoulder by the hair. When he landed I dug my heel in his neck and yanked his head off.
I spun around when I felt somebody bump into me, I raised a clawed hand ready to strike when I saw that is was Jessica. I smiled, but when I saw the leader coming at her with a huge knife I hugging her to me turning us so I was facing the oncoming knife.
It went straight through my back,through the middle of my spinal cord and out my front. I pushed Jessica back so the knife wouldn't cut her. I grunted as he started to pull the knife up, intending to gut me.
I brought my head back and it connected with his nose. He howled and let go of the knife and I spun and punched my arm into his chest ripping his heart out his chest, leaving a gapping hole.
Only a few vampires were left and they had started to retreat in the woods. I saw Pam and Tara ripping the fat geezer apart a few feet away and I smiled a little. I dropped to my knees and grasped the knifes hilt sticking from my back.
"No!," Jessica yelled," Let me."
Pam and Tara streaked over to us dripping with blood and gore. Tara cringed at the sight of the knife in my back.
" I am okay little one." I assured her.
"On the count of three." Jessica said.I nodded and braced my hands on the ground.
"One."
"Two."
I gritted my teeth.
."THREE!" She yanked the knife.
FUCKING WHORE MOTHER OF GOD!" I yelled so loud my throat hurt.
I bent over and gripped the wound. I felt my skin knitting back together under my hand but it still hurt like a bitch.I got to my feet, wiped my hands on my pants.
"Are you okay?" Tara asked.
"I have had worse, trust me." I said nonchalantly.
"Really? " Tara asked her intrest peaked.
"Thats a story for another time little one." I laughed.
"I have to go and pick up one of our wonderfully delightful ailing brotheren." I said scarcasticly.
"I will come with you. " Jessica said.
I looked pointedly at Pam, she rolled her eyes but I could see a small smile on her lips as she said,
" Go on its almost closing time anyway. "
"Cool, see you in a few."
I grabbed Jessica's hand and we started to walk away from the club, I was following the smell of one of the sick vamps.
"You saved my life." She broke the silence with those soft spoken words.
I squeezed her hand,"Of course I did mi amor (my love). You are mine, I would die a million times over just to make sure you live to see another moonrise."
"You took a knife for me." She said shaking her head as we continued to walk farther along thw empty road.
"I would take anything that tried to do you any harm. You are heart, and I protect my heart. " I said pulling her to me gently. I stopped our walking and held her in my arms. I muzzled the crook of her neck and purred into the sensitive flesh there.
"You are to much for me." She whispered in my hair as she placed her arms around my waist and clasped them.
"Yet, you have been able to tame this beast that has been running ramped for far to long. "
"Have you really done those type's of bad thing's? "
I stiffened at the personal question, and she instantly back tracked,
"I... I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable. Sometimes my mouth overloads my ass."
I laughed and hugged her tighter
"Its okay, I don't want any secrets about my past, especially from you. To answer your question simply for now, yes I have done things so horrible and vile it promises to give anybody to hear them night terrors. "
"But you have changed. " she countered.
"Yet I enjoyed killing those vampires and those humans. I reveled in seeing the light die in their eyes as I took their life. Their hot blood seeping through my fingers as I tore them apart gave nutrient to my beast. "
"They deserved it."
"Still they were somebody's, somebody's friend, lover, brother, father, maker or progeny. I took them away from those people, and I was happy in doing so."
"You did it only to protect and rescue us. You have saved us multiple times since you have been here."
I pulled away from her and pressed my lips to hers in a flurry of passion that had seized my heart. Her tongue delved into my mouth and I groaned as I felt my fangs pop from my sudden excitement.'this women made all my years of practiced self control fly out the damn window.'
She smiled and pulled me close to her backing us up until we met a tree.
I felt her hands slide down my thighs and hook behind me knees. I reached up and wrapped my hands around her neck and let her pick me up and I wrapped my legs around her waist.I shifted my head to the side and her tongue seems to go down my throat. 'damn she was a great kisser'
I raked my nails down her back and her fangs popped to met mine and she bit into my lip drawing blood. She sucked on the drops as the flesh healed. She shuddered in pleasure as she licked the rest of the blood of my lip.
"You taste so good." she growled in my mouth.
I smiled and stuck out my tongue and licked the residue of my blood off her lips,
"Mmmm... it taste better on you." I agreed.
She laughed and pulled away placing a kiss on my forehead before placing hers on mine. We looked into each others eyes seeming to get lost in each others depths.
I was just about to kiss her again when I smelled the smell of sick vampire. I growled and Jessica placed me down coming to stand next to me. I scanned the consuming darkness and from the shadows off to the left.
" Don't come any closer." I warned the approaching vamp.
The vamp stumbled to a stop a few feet away. This vampire couldn't have been older than 16. He had ragged clothes and no shoes. He fell to his knees and reached out,
"Help... help me please." Black blood spurted from his mouth.
Jessica raced to his side pulling him to her lap, she stroked his clammy forehead as I walked over.
I knelt down and slit mt wrist with my fangs
"Open his mouth Jess." I clamly ordered.
The boy tried to sit up in vain to get away from me. Fear was etched into his glazy eyes.
I placed a gentle hand on his sweat drenxhedr shirt and whiawhispered,
"It's okay little one, just relax I am trying to help you."
Hia eyes rolled back in his head and his mouth slacked open. I took this moment to bite inro my wrist again. I placed it against his parched lips and hissed when his fanga sunk into my flesh. It felt like liquid fire coursing into my veins as he sucked hungrily.
I groaned as he clamped down harder reaching up and gripped my arm in a cold sweaty hand. Once I felt my head start to swim I gripped his arm and yanked my arm away from his mouth.
He moaned as his thick dry tounge raced out and licked at the mess around his mouth.
I licked the bite marks and they disappeared, I got up looking towards the sky, it was close to dawn. I looked down and saw much to my cute amusement that Jessica's eyes were lidded with oncoming sleep.
I reached down and moved the boy off her lap and sat him up on a tree.
"How long have you been sick?" I asked the half awake boy.
"Since I was made, about five days ago. "
"Your maker gave you Tru blood? "
"She is big into Mainstream."
"Jesus, you have not feed on a human?" I asked running my hands frustrated at his maker. He was A Fucking baby vamp! He needed human blood.
"No." He was slipping into Sleep.I looked over at Jessica and couldn't help but smile, she had fallen asleep with her mouth opened fangs still distended.
I siffled a laugh as i picked up the boy and heaved him over my left shoulder. I moved over to Jessica and picked her up bridal style making sure the boys no were near her face.
I turned with my young passenger's and in a burst of speed I fled back to the club. The lights on the sign were out. I stopped and opened the door while I held Jessica with my other. I walked in to see Pam sitting in her throne.
When she saw me and my sleeping passenger's a eye brow raised.
"Noobs." I smirked as I laid Jessica on a booth seat.I shrugged the boy off of me and he fell in a dirty lump on the floor.
"Can I take him down to the basements?"
"I am sure that we have a spare coffin." Pam said.
"Good because he is so not sleeping with me." I said with distaste.
"Why he wasn't sleeping with me because I have Tara in my coffin."
"Not that Tara would have even let you."
"Not even." She agreed
"Well imma get these baby vamps to bed and stay up for a while."
"You want me to stay up with you."
"No, I dont want you do get the bleeds love. You need rest. Rest easy I will keep guard."
"Suit yourself."she yawned beofe heading down to the basement.
I made sure that I heard her coffin close before I picked up the boy and deposited the boy in a beat up coffin. I then raced upstairs and picked up my little fire angel and placed her in her glossy black coffin.
I kissed her lips gently moving her hair out her face before closing the lid softly. I walked up and sat down at the bar and waited.
