Spellbound

Chapter 76

Thank y'all so much for reading and reviewing my story. I appreciate y'all so much. I hope that you enjoy. The story belongs to me but the most of the characters belong to Charlaine Harris.

Everything that she's ever needed and wanted was right in front of her. She looked at her husband as she placed her hand on her growing baby bump.

Everything

She stood at the foot of their bed and watched him. She loved watching him when he died the day away. Even when they weren't doing their best as a couple, she loved to watch him. He looked so vulnerable yet so powerful. She loved the way his chest looked in the light of their room. His legs rivaled those of the strongest and biggest sycamore trees. His handsome face was the most handsome face she'd ever seen. She loves everything about him. No matter how small, she loved it. No matter how violent, she loved it. No matter what it is, she loves it. She closed her eyes as the images of him loving her and their child filled her mind. The thoughts of him doing whatever he has to do to keep them safe, filled her with love and lust.

When Eric opened his eyes, it pleased him to see Sookie standing at the foot of their bed naked and watching him. A slow and mischievous smile appeared on his face as he inhaled the sweet smells of her lust.

"My lover," he said as he propped himself upon his elbows. "You never cease to amaze me. Come to me and let me hold you."

She crawled onto the bed and seductively growled at him. When she reached his feet, she kissed his toes, each one individually. She then moved from his toes to the tops of his feet. She then kissed his ankles and his calves. She kissed his knees and spread his legs open as she kissed the insides of his thighs.

Eric never took his eye off of her. He watched her as his awe of her filled his eyes and his heart. He'd never loved a woman more ... not even as a human.

She smiled up at him as she skipped over the most beautiful cock she's ever seen. She peppered his hips and pelvis with kisses; his cock hitting her on the chin and brushing lightly against her cheeks with each loving gesture that she made.

As she moved to his abdomen, her nipples brushed the tip of his hardness; causing him to catch his breath in ways he never has. She looked up at him as she bit into her bottom lip; not saying a word. She slowly moved back to his hardness; her mouth hovering over him and her warm breath sending shivers over and through his body.

He sat taller as he looked down at her. "Sookie," he whispered.

She opened her mouth wider and still, she did nothing.

He thrust his hips upward in order to meet her waiting mouth but he didn't thrust up quick enough. She moved.

She moved away from him and shook her head no; her mouth still open. But soon, her tongue made a long awaited appearance. She ever so lightly flicked it back and forth over the throbbing head of his cock. It was the lightest of touches but it caused him to throw his head back in pure bliss.

Again, she smiled but didn't speak.

"Torture, my lover, is cruel," he said in a deep and commanding voice. "Enough," he ordered.

She didn't agree with him. She flicked her tongue over the head of his cock again.

Eric roared out in frustration and pleasure as he thrust upward.

Sookie gripped his beautiful cock in her hand as her lips fit perfectly around the head of her husband's most beautiful member. Within in seconds, he came. She swallowed every drop; not letting a single drop fall from the corners of her mouth. She continued to suck her husband as her moans and the sweet smells of her arousal filled the room. Eric continued to thrust into her mouth as his hands guided her head.

When he felt himself about to cum again, he reached underneath his lover's arms and pulled her up to his mouth and began kissing her as he filled her with his hardness. She broke the kiss and threw her head back from the sheer ecstasy of having him fuck her … claim her … own her.

Her hands rested on his chest and his on her shoulders as he forced her to remain in place as he fucked her over and over again. She could hold her silence no longer. Sookie filled their room with the screams and sounds of her orgasm as it washed over her. "More!" she begged. "Give me more!"

Eric soon had Sookie on her knees; never once leaving her body and did everything in his power to give her what she wanted, what she begged for over and over again.

"More!" she said as she looked at him over her shoulder.

He leaned forward and began kissing her as he fucked her. He used his knees to spread her legs wider as he fucked her harder and harder. He could feel her warmth and the constriction of her walls as they began to tighten around his throbbing cock. He pushed deeper and deeper inside of her as she reached behind him and grabbed his ass to help him along.

"Yes!" she cried out.

As he staked claim to his wife, his fangs dropped. She rolled her head to the side and waited for the bite. She needed that bite. Her body was begging for that bite.

Just as they were about to cum together, he leaned down and bit. Their sounds of satisfaction filled the room. Eric's grunts and Sookie's moans were all that could be heard. He thrust lazily inside of her as she continued to milk him of the very last drop of his essence. Pure exhaustion caused the lovers to fall onto the bed; arms and legs were spread out lazily around them.

They turned to face each other. Sookie rested her hand on Eric's cheek. He leaned into her as he melted into her touch. He's never known anything more soothing and loving than the touch of his lover. He captured her mouth with his and kissed her lovingly, longingly, and ever so sweetly.

When he broke the kiss, he said, "My lover."

"Always," she whispered. Her heart tightened. The sudden idea of losing him began to fill her with loss and pain. It was a pain that she swore she wouldn't feel. She'd even reprimanded Quinn for giving in so easily and here she is doing the exact same thing.

"What has happened?" Eric asked. His voice was laced with concern. "What has happened to you cause you to feel such pain?" His body stiffened. "Did something happen today that has put in danger?" His eyes then clouded over. "Is our secret known? Are you and our son safe?"

"Don't worry, my dearest love. Everything is fine," she said. She then looked at him with a friendly frown on her face. "So, you want a son?" She propped herself up on her elbows and smiled at him.

He stared into her eyes and decided to play along with her little game. "I'd love to have a son. He'd be as strong and as handsome as I am. A daughter," he said as he shook his head. "A daughter would break my heart. She'd be just like you; warm and caring, beautiful and amazing. She'd be the very end of me." He looked sincerely into her eyes and said, "Just as you are."

"My dearest love," she whispered as a tear trickled from the corner of her eye. She wrapped her arms tightly around Eric and closed her eyes. She appreciated what he'd just done for her. She needed a distraction. She needed him.

And he let her need him. He needed for her to need him. He held her closer and kissed her forehead as he caressed her hair. He wanted to know what happened today. He wanted to know what has caused her so much pain. He wanted to know why his lover was filled with sadness but he'd wait. He was going to give her the time that she needed and when she was ready …

"Claudette and I have had a busy day today," she said as she removed herself from the security of his arms. "We met with Maggie. She's a telepath and she part fae. She's a halfling. Bill Compton was trying to get her parents to give her to him. Needless to say, they wouldn't give him their daughter. He glamoured them. And he almost had her but he never realized how wrong he was. Maggie is a smart young lady."

"How smart is she?" he asked.

Sookie chuckled as she thought of Maggie's ingenuity. "She's so smart that she had her parents write her a lease for the half of the second floor of their home and the entire third floor."

After she finished speaking, she stared at him. And her husband's face showed nothing but she could see the wheels turning in his beautiful head. His face was as blank as ever but the bond was filled with excitement and anticipation. He was excited about the pending battle and he more than anticipated the idea of killing his enemies.

Eric then smiled a lopsided grin. "Very clever," he said. "But tell me, my beloved. How did that keep Bill from getting to her? Her parents could've just walked him upstairs and invited him into her room. What stopped them from doing that?"

"Maggie," she answered simply. "She's had her 'apartment' warded to keep those who mean her harm away from her. They never stood a chance."

He nodded. "She must be the friend of a very powerful witch."

Shaking her head, Sookie said no. "She didn't have the help of a witch. She was helped by a faery. Fintan helped her."

Before she knew it, Sookie was being cradled in Eric's lap and wrapped up in his arms. His fangs were on full display. "You are mine," he growled into her ear. "You. Are. Mine."

She shivered at the words as they ran through her body. His emotions filled her like an expanding wind. She'd never felt anything so strong in her life. She settled into his lap as she placed her hand on top of his. "I am, baby," she said soothingly. "I am yours."

The feral and dangerous growl continued to fill him. His grip tightened as his fangs pierced his bottom lip.

"Baby, you're hurting me," Sookie said as she kissed the droplets of blood from his lip and his chin. "I know that you love me but I can't breathe. You're hurting me." Her voice came out feathery and whispered. She was trying to keep her breathing even but it was becoming harder and harder to do. "Please," she whispered.

He loosened his grip but refused to let her go. He rested his head on top hers as she rested her head on his chest. He closed his eyes and sighed. "I'm not going to lose you."

"You're not," she said. "I'm not going anywhere. If Fintan wanted me, he's had more than enough time and every opportunity to take me. We're going to be fine, baby." She decided to leave it at that ... for now.

Slowly, the calm began to fill the bond and their bedroom. The tension slowly eased out of Eric's body as Sookie settled into him. She took that moment to continue telling him about her day; careful to not mention Fintan's name. "Amelia and Maggie have been communicating with each other since Amelia's has been gone. They're telepathic."

Before Eric could ask, she said, "Bill doesn't know that they are telepathic and Maggie has no idea where Amelia is but she's seen where she is. She's in a dungeon and she's alone. The other girls that were taken, they are all dead. Amelia's the last one."

"Were they telepaths?" he asked. "The other girls?"

"No," she said. "Amelia and Maggie tried talking to them telepathically but got nothing from them. They could only hear them."

"Where's Maggie now?" Eric asked.

"Alaska," Sookie answered. "It's 30 days of daylight there. She and her mother will be safe. Drayton and Arayleaha are with Maggie and her mom. The dad is safe too. We've had the house warded and Amanda has contacted some members of her pack to watch him during the day."

He nodded his approval. "Maggie must remain in Alaska until we can end André and Bill. She knows not to return until she has been summonsed." It was more a statement instead of a question.

"Yes," she answered. "I've told Drayton and Arayleaha that I will send for them when it is time. There's one more thing," she added. "While you were resting, Amanda came by. She said that she's found another girl. Her name is Felicia. She was a friend of Amelia's; a former lover. She, too, has had Bill's blood. Amanda said that she could smell the blood in her when she met with her this morning."

"They'll never be free if we take this to the council," Eric said.

"I know," she agreed.

Eric then stood up from the bed and placed Sookie in the spot that he used to occupy. He stood in the middle of the room and looked straight ahead. He didn't move. He processed everything that he and Sookie learned since the investigation started. A sudden bolt of realization hit him within seconds.

He turned around and looked at Sookie before speaking. "The now dead girls weren't enough. Pixie's blood would have been too evident. We would have smelled it. Amelia and Maggie are just right. They're halflings. That's why he looked so much healthier that last time I saw him. André is using their blood to heal. He's going to synthesize their blood."

Sookie smiled. She's always known that she's married to the smartest man in the world. "That's what Claudette and I believe."

Taking her hands into his, Eric said, "Tonight, we will meet with Felicia. We have to find out if Amelia told her anything about Bill." He began pacing back and forth. "After we question her, we are going to have to get protection for her or either send her away."

She looked up at her husband and nodded. She loved seeing him in vampire mode. It's the sexiest thing she's ever seen. His control, power, and stamina amazed her. It's always amazed her. She could feel her lust as it began to build within her. She looked at his naked form and licked her lips.

"You flatter me, lover," he said as he inhaled. "But we need to get to Felicia before André and his henchmen do."

She shook herself out of her reverie. "Amanda has set up a meeting with her for tonight. We have to be at her house by 10:00. She should be home from work by then. She starts her work day early ... no later than 6:00 a.m. So, we need to get there before she goes to bed."

"A human with a strong work ethic?" he asked.

"I thought the same thing," Sookie replied. "According to Amanda, she's always working long and strange hours."

Eric shrugged his shoulders. "Either way, we will meet with her." He looked at the clock and back at Sookie. "We have three hours to prepare for her. That gives us just enough time to do …"

"Whatever we want to do," Sookie finished. She turned away from Eric and crawled to the center of the bed. She stood on her knees and used her thumbs and forefingers and rolled her nipples between them.

"Sookie, no," Eric replied sternly. "We must focus. You can't ply me with sex every 15 minutes when there is a lot at stake here. Do you not realize what we are up against?" His eyes were cold and hard as he looked at her.

She almost started to laugh until she saw the seriousness on his face. She removed her thumbs and forefingers from her nipples and dropped her arms to her sides. She was still on her knees and in the middle of her bed as her bottom rested on the heels of her feet. She then nodded. "You are right, baby. Here I am thinking of gratifying my own sexual needs and wanting to please you when we have so much work to do. You're right. You're absolutely right," she said as she looked up at him. "Do you forgive me?"

The corner of Eric's mouth twitched at the sounds of Sookie's apology. If she'd blinked, she would have missed it.

"You asshole," she said as she reached behind her and grabbed a pillow. She threw it his head and said it again. "You are a total asshole."

Before she knew it, Eric had tackled her back onto the bed and peppered her baby belly with a million kisses. "You love this asshole," he said as he kissed his way to her mouth.

"Very much," she said. "I love you very much."

He deepened the kiss as he looked into her eyes. "Never fear," he said. "I will keep you and our child safe. I give you my word. That council seat will be ours, lover and we will be just fine."

She wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled.
