Ch. 50 God-Napped!
Eris's P.O.V.
"Ahhhhh! Gahhh! Make it stop!" Eric was roaring in pain as he twitched and seized on my bed. I didn't know what to do. His veins were glowing through his skin, the tattoo of Violet's mark on his chest of the phoenix grew larger and larger and became alive on his chest. It's talons ripped into his skin and he screamed some more.
This has got to do with Violet! How do I stop this? I need Eric! He can't die or everything will fall apart!
"I don't know what to do," I said scared and jumped back once a blinding light was coming out of Eric's eyes. It touched my skin and I received a third degree burn. I staggered back in pain and fell to the floor.
What is happening? Could it be that she's still alive? Then- she must have been with someone too! But who? Where is she now?
As I listened to Eric more and saw the phoenix tattoo across him still slash every where it could, the blood poured out of the Viking and was soaking the bed. I couldn't do anything until it would stop.
He could actually die from this!
Violet's P.O.V.
I was deep in thought as I looked outside from the couch. It was day light out and Caine came up behind me to place a kiss on my head. I smiled at the affection but still couldn't stop the sudden pang in my heart. It wasn't too bad, like someone was poking me, but it still bothered me.
"What's the matter?" Caine asked and came to sit next to me. I saw he was finally dressed in a long sleeve black shirt with dark grey jeans. He looked quite fine in my eyes.
"I just feel something in here," I confessed and pointed at my heart. When I opened my shirt a little so I could peek down, I saw that my tattoo was glowing a little bit. "I'm sure that's not normal."
Caine gave me a quizzical look and I showed him. His eyebrows raised and he pulled out his phone from his pocket. "Um, hey Pam. Have you heard from Eric or any signs of Eris recently?"
I could hear her tell him no except she could tell he was in an enormous amount of pain.
"Pain?" I asked scared.
"We'll come back tonight then. Are you ok?" Caine's voice was sincere but Pam's was pissed.
"I FEEL LIKE I'M DIEING DAMN IT!" And then she hung up.
"Do you think she will be ok?" I asked concerned.
The ancient vampire's face looked a little nervous when he was deep in thought. "I'm not sure. If Pam is hurting this bad and if Eric is in that much pain-"
"I suppose we go at night fall?" I asked and grabbed his hand. My thumb stoked loving swipes against the back of his strong tan skin.
"That feels nice, and yes."
I looked up into Caine's now regular blue eyes and just stared deep within. He was feeling anxious and holding back. "What's holding you back?" I asked and scooted towards him more.
He sighed and bowed his head before looking back up at me. "You don't belong to me."
"I don't belong to anybody," I responded and placed a small kiss on his lips. He savored the feeling after I pulled back.
"Yes you do. You belong to Eric, and the only way you won't is if he dies I think."
The look of sadness in the vampire's eyes was becoming too much for me to bare. "Caine, if I could belong to you… would you have me?" I was a little scared of his answer. What if he said no?
The ancient placed both of his hands on my face and said, "If I could make you mine this second I would. I know you know that deep down."
A stray tear fell from my eye and Caine kissed it away. "Then let me be yours," I whispered with a hint of longing in my voice.
Caine pressed his forehead lightly to mine and I gripped him to me. "Then let me ask you properly." A hint of laughter sounded from him and I smiled.
"Ok," I grinned and sniffled a little.
His thumbs stroked my cheeks as he looked deep within my light brown eyes. I gulped once and ignored the feeling of the poking against my heart. "Will you be mine?" Caine's voice was so husky and magnetic that there was no way I was going to reject him.
"Yes," I agreed and kissed him.
Eris's P.O.V.
It was night fall before Eric finally stopped screaming in pain. I ran over to him and saw that he was passed out. I gave him a little shake and he opened up his eyes.
"Are you ok Eric?"
The Viking blinked at me and winced as his wounds began to slowly heal.
"Eris," He croaked and I nodded.
"I think Violet did this," I hissed and Eric looked confused.
"Who's Violet?"
Oh fuck.
Caine's P.O.V.
Pam was waiting for Violet and I back at my house when we finally got there. She had a leather jacket with matching pants on and hands on her hips.
Violet kept her fingers intertwined with mine when we walked through the door and Pam immediately noticed but didn't say anything. Her face was saying enough but she came over to give Violet a hug.
"Are you ok?" She asked Violet. Violet nodded and then said she was going upstairs for bed.
When Violet was out of ear shot Pam angrily whispered, "Are you out of your mind?"
I walked past Pam and into my study. "I don't know what you mean."
Pam was not going to have it and was hot on my trail as she closed the door behind us. "You. Her. Hands together!"
I went and sat at my desk facing the pissed vampire. "I can't help the way I feel about her."
Pam's face read disbelief as she stared at me. "The way you- the way you feel? Do you know what you're doing? DO YOU?"
I looked away aggravated. "Pam stop."
"You're telling me to fucking stop!" She hissed and I looked at her harshly.
"Yes I am. I love Violet. I didn't plan on it happening, but I do!" I admitted and desperately wanted to go to her upstairs where I knew she was laying in my bed waiting for me. I wanted to hold her, caress her, breath her in.
Pam came to stand in front of me. She looked deep into my eyes and sighed. "This is a fucking disaster."
"I know," I said and got up.
"You and Eric both love her, but Eric and her are-"
"I am perfectly aware of what they are Pamela." My voice was sad and all I wanted to do was go spend the time I could with Violet. She made me feel again. She made me think I could be a real man once more and not just an immortal ghost walking this Earth.
"This will not end well Caine," Pam spoke honestly and left.
Violet's P.O.V.
When I woke up I looked at the clock and saw I slept through the whole day!
"Oh geez!" I exclaimed and sat up. Instantly I smelt something yummy and Caine came through the door with a tray full of scrumptious food.
"Good morning, or night I should say," He grinned at me and I could help but smile back.
"Is this all for me?" I asked with butterflies in my stomach fluttering about.
"It sure is. I made pancakes, cut up some strawberries, and brought you orange juice." The triumphant grin upon the ancient vampires face was absolutely adorable.
"Thank you," I hummed and began to dig in once he put the tray in front of me. The whole thing was absolutely amazing!
"You can sure eat!" Caine laughed and I scowled at him playfully.
"So what do we do today?"
I guess intense training was on Caine's mind because we were in his basement on a huge matt that gymnasts use for practicing and performing. I at the moment just got completely smacked down and was groaning a little bit because of my poor boobs being hurt.
"That hurt so bad," I wined and Caine picked me up.
He gave me a funny look as I rubbed my chest. "Uh- are you alright?"
I looked at him with a 'what do you think' look. "They hurt!" I exclaimed. "They just got body slammed to the ground."
"Violet in war, the enemy will not care if your breasts hurt."
Caine grinned when I rolled my eyes, turned away, and mocked his words to myself silently. "You try being the chosen one," I mumbled and stretched.
"I didn't deal out the cards, now come on." His voice was a little harsh but I understood I was supposed to save the world from the person that took my memory. Caine and the others explained I was pretty badass, but since I couldn't remember how to be, I was stuck learning from the beginning again.
"Let's go then," I grinned evilly.
Eris's P.O.V.
I had a feeder for Eric so he could regain more of his strength faster. He drained the girl dry and I had someone take her away before I pulled him over to the dining room table where we were alone.
"Now Eric you know everything else but who Violet Knight is?" I asked carefully.
"That's true. Who is she?" He asked me.
This could work to my advantage. If he doesn't know now, then it might be easier to kill her.
"She's our biggest enemy. The one who is trying to stop my plans. She simply must die."
And now I go find the bitch.
Pam's P.O.V.
I came over to Caine's house to find him and Violet in the basement. They were training and Violet looked like she was failing miserably. Quietly I stood by the wall to watch her say, "Ouch" as he flipped her in the air causing her to land on her back. Instantly his face looked a little horror struck at her pain.
My fucking god he really is in love with her. Can't he keep it in his pants?
I cleared my throat for them to acknowledge me and Violet did so by wobbling over. "Hi Pam," She smiled and gave me a little hug. My face bore a grin for my friends affection and I asked if she needed an ice pack. She nodded and I got one for her before she could count to ten. After thanking me we all went up stairs.
"So what's new?" Caine asked me quickly and I told him not a lot except for the witches are feeling a very mad Eris presence wafting through the air.
"She's pissed and probably going to wage an attack on us. We need to-"
"You need to what?"
We all turned around to see Eris. She looked furious. Her eyes were black, sparks of magic were flowing around her, and I had to give it to her, her outfit of dark pants with an expensive leather jacket did look quite good.
"Violet get back," Caine commanded our beloved and she did as instructed.
"No. Stay." Eris hissed and lunged towards her I stepped in the way.
Violet's P.O.V.
I watched as Eris ripped Pam's right arm off and threw her into the wall. She hit a mirror and shards got stuck in her everywhere.
"Pam!" I screamed but Caine told me to stay back.
I tried to make the fire come out of my hands again but nothing happened. Not one little spark!
Shit! Shit! Fucking hell! I swore up, down, and sideways to myself before I looked around and grabbed a sword that was on the wall. It was heavy as all get out but I kept it at the ready as Eris and Caine battled each other. He wasn't half bad but couldn't stop her from shooting some sort of black lightning into his chest. He roared in pain and was thrown out the window.
"Caine!" I yelled and my heart felt like it was on fire.
Oh god please don't be dead! Please! I love you!
Eris walked closer and closer to me like a snake ready for the kill. I held firmly around the hilt and gave a good swing at her. She dodged it but I came around again. It somehow felt familiar to wield the sword. From where or when I didn't know, but it made me stand guard a little stronger.
"I can not wait to kill you."
"Didn't your mother tell you not to be a bitch!" I snapped and blocked the jab Eris sent my way. This pissed her off even more and she sent a bowling ball sized lighting ball at me. I couldn't move out of the way fast enough and took it right to the stomach.
I yelled as I was sent flying into a book shelf. The whole thing came down on me as I collided with the marble floor and my vision began to fade to black.
"Not good," I grumbled and tried to get up.
"God you're pathetic."
"Not as pathetic as you," I breathed with difficulty.
I looked up to see Eris looking disgusted at me. She reached down and grabbed me by the arm.
I tried to get out of her grasp but she just shocked me till I finally blacked out.
"What the?" When my eyes opened I saw I was chained to a wall. I yanked as hard as I could but nothing budged. "You have got to be kidding me."
"Quiet or else they'll hear you!" A female voice whispered harshly to me.
I cocked my eyebrow and looked around in the dimly lit room. "Who are you talking about and where the hell am I?"
"You are in a dungeon and I'm Opal, daughter of Leonidas, a fairy prince." Opal sounded a bit scared like she was afraid to speak above a whisper.
"Are you and I the only ones down here?" I asked and actually saw what Opal looked like. She was for one in a cage, but she was really elegant looking. Her hair was a light blue (so light that you might have thought it was white, her skin was fair, and her eyes were purple.
"No. There is Sky. He's a wizard of the royal line. Also a witch named Hazel. She's also royal I guess. And there is Pearl. She's a mermaid princess." I listened closely to what Opal was saying. Eris had somehow bagged all of us, but for what reason?
"Do you know what she wants us for?"
Opal sadly breathed, "I've been hearing something about a ritual to speed up a process. I'm not sure what though."
"Where are the others?" I asked and tried to look around with the little light that was down in the hell hole.
"They're in different cages on the other side of the dungeon I'm afraid. What's your name anyway?"
I took a deep breath and tried pulling the chains again. I got no results but aching wrists. "Violet."
Opal made a gasp and came to the farthest part of her cell that was by me. "Violet knight? The demigod!"
"One in the same," I huffed while trying to yank the chains again.
"You better stop that, or the guards are going to come," Opal warned me. I shuddered a little bit and tried to figure out how the hell to get out of there.
Eric's P.O.V.
I didn't know what it was, but something was pulling me to the basement. I took my time in walking down the stairs and paused when I heard Opal, a fairy princess we were going to kill for a ritual speaking scared to another girl.
"Stop making so much noise! They might send the Viking down!" She hissed and I cocked a grin. She should be scared.
"Eric?"
I was curious that the girl the princess was talking to knew my name. In a way the voice sounded familiar. Maybe it was the girl Eris was talking about. The one that wanted to stop us in the big battle. The one we had to kill.
"Yes. Eric Northman. He's over a thousand years old, and has a temper," Opal whimpered and I again grinned with satisfaction as I made my way down the stone steps and into the dungeon.
Instantly the fairy princess froze and scooted to the furthest corner of her cage while the girl named Violet (Eris had told me) stood still and looked at me in the eye.
"So you're Violet," I breathed and inhaled her scent. It stung the inside of my nose, it was so intoxicating.
She didn't make a sound but continued to look at me. Almost as if she was studying me. I watched as her eyes searched mine and then I looked at where her heart beat echoed from. It was just above normal, not scared, but a little excited.
When I moved closer to her I couldn't help but think I could play a game with her. A good chase would be fun. To go after her, prey on her, and then taste her sweet nectar from her pulsing neck. It made my insides quiver and my manhood jump with glee but I suppressed it. I didn't want this little one thinking she had any real effect on me.
"You're Eric," She stated more that asked. I couldn't help myself anymore and walked up to her until just about a foot stood between us. Something then flashed in my mind. It was of me and her and we were smiling at each other.
What the fuck? What was that?
I must have looked a little confused because the demigod leaned a little closer to look up at me. She almost looked concerned but then backed away.
"How about we play a little game?" I asked wickedly.
"I don't think so," Violet snapped and stared hard at me. For a second I was infuriated at how she talked to me but then I sinfully smiled.
I stepped towards her and pressed my ancient body against hers so she was in between the cold stone wall and myself. She gasped and I silenced her mouth with my large hand. She tried to struggle as I grazed my fangs along her neck and I chuckled to myself in her reactions. She was a fighter and I liked it.
With a slight lick just below her ear I could smell just the slightest arousal from the girl and it made me hard. I pressed even harder against her and she shivered making me want to bite her that much more.
"Eric! I need to speak with you!" Eris called and I swore slightly to myself at the interruption. I was having way too much fun and she just had to ruin it.
Just to make Violet jump with fear inside I pricked her neck just so I could taste her. She squealed against my hand and I shook with ecstasy as her blood savored itself against my tongue. When I looked down into her light brown eyes I felt something but couldn't put my finger on it.
"I'll see you later," I told with a hard voice and zipped upstairs to see what Eris wanted to talk about.
God what is it about her? I can still taste her. I can practically feel her against my skin. Lingering. Smoldering me. Making me want to-
"That's it," I growled to myself and got out of bed. Eris was soundly asleep and I quickly pulled on some pants and a shirt.
When I got to the basement Violet was awake and alert. She stood still against the wall just like I had left her a few hours before.
Could she sense that I was coming?
"You need to leave me alone," She whispered warningly.
I tilted my head to the side while walking up to her. I could then feel her heart beat press against my chest and her warmth soak into my shirt. "No."
"I don't know what you're game is Eric, but fuck off," the little demigod snapped at me and I almost grinned.
I leaned down close to her angelic face and couldn't help but breath in. "Do you truly know who I am?"
Violet didn't break eye contact nor feistiness as she whispered, "Yes."
"Good. Now I think we'll play a little game. You're going to get to run and you better hope I don't catch you." My voice was playful but dangerous and Violet winced as I unclasped the shackles from around her wrists.
She didn't wait another second before taking off. My body thrilled at the thought of the chase.
You're so hypnotizingCould you be the devil?Could you be an angel?
Violet's P.O.V.
I ran like a bat out of hell in that dungeon, but when I got to the door it was locked. "Shit!" I panicked and took off in the other direction.
It was so weird of how I could feel him. For a moment I thought I could hear his thoughts, but I pushed it out of the way as I wound down another hallway. They're had to be another way out of this place!
With just a glimpse I thought I saw another person but didn't bother to stop there. I ran down another hallway, and turned a corner before I had to stop to ketch my breath. I was afraid to breath too much and the thought of Eric hearing my heart beat made it race more.
God damn it I need to calm down!
Now and again I could hear little noises and chuckles. I knew it was Eric messing with me and I hated it. It down right frightened me. Made my heart race, made my blood thump through my ears, made me doubt I could get out of here alive.
"Gotcha!"
I screamed as Eric blocked me into a corner and tried to move past him but he blocked that too. He lightly touched my hand and a shock ran through me to him. Your touch magnetizingFeels like I am floatingLeaves my body glowing
Eric's P.O.V.
I couldn't ignore the pull I had to her. The shock that went through my body from hers was magnetic. Soon I was intertwining our hands and just looking down at her. My expression was soft and her heart beat finally calmed down. What turned into me wanting to kill her now was completely gone. I wanted to explore her, to feel her…
They say, be afraidYou're not like the othersFuturistic loverDifferent DNAThey don't understand youYou're from a whole 'nother worldA different dimensionYou open my eyesAnd I'm ready to goLead me into the light
With question in my eyes I asked her quietly if I could kiss her. Violet looked shocked but then gulped slightly before nodding slightly. Gently I cupped her face and feathered my lips across hers. She seemed to want me to continue because her hands were on my abdomen.
"It's ok," She whispered and for a second I didn't understand why she said it until I realized that I was afraid to kiss her. Why was I? How did she know?
Kiss me, kiss meInfect me with your love andFill me with your poisonTake me, take meWanna be a victimReady for abductionBoy, you're an alienYour touch so foreignIt's supernaturalExtraterrestrial
The look of assurance and gentleness in Violet's eyes made me continue. I placed my lips upon hers where they perfectly fit and drew her into my arms. The forces passing through us seemed incredible. I felt like a real man.
Violet's P.O.V.
I didn't know what came over me. I was kissing Eric. I. Was. Kissing. Him. It felt so right though. So natural, like we'd done it a million times. The strength of his arms around me, holding me, his kiss, the electricity between us was euphoric. You're so supersonicWanna feel your powersStun me with your lasersYour kiss is cosmicEvery move is magicYou're from a whole 'nother worldA different dimensionYou open my eyesAnd I'm ready to goLead me into the lightKiss me, kiss meInfect me with your love andFill me with your poison
As our lips danced, our hands did too. I let him explore the curves of my body while he let me to him. He was so gentle but rough in all the right places. I was so careful, like touching a piece of priceless art. That is exactly was Eric was: art. He was timeless, a treasure.
Take me, ta-ta-take meWanna be a victimReady for abductionBoy, you're an alienYour touch so foreignIt's is transcendentalOn another levelBoy, you're my lucky starI wanna walk on your wave lengthAnd be there when you vibrateFor you I'll risk it allAll
When Eric got back up to my neck he stopped and pulled away to look into my eyes. They were troubled but mixed with desire. I ran my hands through his hair once before lightly stroking his face. I could feel how badly he wanted to taste my blood, but he was again asking for permission. It touched me to my very soul.
I don't know what made me say it, but I whispered, "For you I'll risk it all."
Kiss me, kiss meInfect me with your love andFill me with your poison
Eric's P.O.V.
Violet's words were the missing beats to my undead heart. She was permitting me to bite her, to take her blood, to have her run through my veins.
Without another word I bent down and kissed her throbbing pulse that was calling to me. Calling, beckoning, begging me to sink my teeth into her soft flesh and taste her precious essence.
She gasped lightly as I bit down and I held her protectively close as I drank. Violet sighed but then gasped as memories started to flood both of our minds.
Violet's P.O.V.
Take me, ta-ta-take meWanna be a victimReady for abductionBoy, you're an alienYour touch so foreignIt's , you're an alienYour touch so foreignIt's supernaturalExtraterrestrial
Only a few moments after Eric bit me did I get hit with my memory. The memory of who I was, Eric being evil, Eris's plans to open the door, and her needing Eric because he was the blood of Thor!
My soul blood bonded flung his head away from me violently and my eyes shot wide open. "Eric," I breathed.
