Chapter 13
Eric was worried when he rose to find Sookie and Adele gone, the fact she didn’t leave a note proved that she planned on returning before he awoke, which had him even more concerned. He tried to feel her through the bond, but was drawing a blank.
Pam’s urgent phone call had him rushing to Fangtasia in a panic. Before he could ask what was wrong, she was thrusting a piece of paper in his face.
“I found this at the entrance when I arrived. No one saw who planted it there, but it stinks of humans.”
He read the words, crumbling the paper with a look of rage. “I can’t feel Sookie, which means she is likely unconscious somewhere. She has Adele with her.”
“Did I not tell you they would be prime targets? Do you think this is just a random kidnapping?”
“This is not a personal vendetta against me, Pamela. Humans would not have targeted Sookie to get to me, if you have read the note correctly. This is about ransom,” he spat.
She rolled her eyes. “Yes, and they obviously know a great deal about you. Why else would they have gone for her?”
“We don’t have time to argue. I want this entire area searched, they couldn’t have gotten too far. Send trackers to trace the scent of this note, I will kill anyone involved in their abduction.”
Pam knew that tone all too well, nodding in agreement as she went to do his bidding.
Eric inhaled the air around him one last time, and then took off through the night sky.

Sookie awoke with a killer headache, noticing that she was blindfolded, and her hands were tied behind her back. She pulled at the rope, but it was bound too tight. Instead of worrying about her safety, she worried more for Adele. The cries could be heard in the distance, and it broke her heart. Not to mention severely pissing her off.
“Where is my daughter?” Sookie yelled, sensing that she wasn’t alone. “If you’ve done anything to her…”
“Relax, we’re not gonna hurt the kid. She’s perfectly safe, if your boy toy cooperates, you should be free soon enough. We were told he would pay anything for your safety. I wasn’t expecting that you’d have a little tyke with you, but that just means even more money for us. My buddy and I are only in this for the cash, no one has to get hurt. ”
Sookie didn’t recognize the voice, but flinched when a sweaty palm trailed up her thigh. She kicked out at him. “If that is the case, I would suggest you keep your hands to yourself.”
He chuckled. “Feisty, I’ll never understand what you girls see in those bloodsuckers. Ain’t it like fucking a corpse? That’s just sick, I think what you need is a nice, warm body. He won’t even have to know.”
“You obviously don’t know him. In fact, once he finds me, you’ll be lucky to get out of here alive.”
“Sure, you keep telling yourself that, sweetheart. It was nice chatting with you,” he said, giving her knee another squeeze before walking away.
Sookie let out a breath, trying to get a read on him to find out what this was really about. Luckily for her, both men were pretty loud broadcasters. They either didn’t know she was a telepath, or just didn’t know how to keep their perverted thoughts to themselves. To say what she heard was disturbing would have been an understatement, but one thought in particular stood out above all others, and it was enough to get her pretty damn peeved. Oh, he would pay for this, especially if anything happened to Adele.
She was about to reach out to Eric when the sudden sounds of a fight going on put that on hold, wondering if he were possibly already there, but what she felt was a different presence. The men yelled out in terror, but were quickly silenced. Before she knew what happened, her arms were freed and the blindfold was removed. Once her eyes adjusted, she was able to see who her savior was, and it left her feeling cold.
“Are you all right, Sookie? Did they harm you?”
Sookie stood up, moving away from Bill without answering as she went to find her baby, locating her in the next room. Adele was lying on a bed, screaming her little lungs out and Sookie could tell she had a very wet diaper. Her fists clenched when she saw that the bed wasn’t even secluded, with the hard wooden floors, she could have fallen at any time and injured herself. Sookie ran to her side, taking Adele in her arms and wrapping a blanket around her shivering form. “It’s okay now, sweetie. Mama’s got you.”
“Is she hurt?”
In the worry for her child’s safety, Sookie almost forgot that he was there. That was until she remembered exactly what she heard from those men, whom she realized were now laying on the ground, their throats torn open. He had never disgusted her more, but before anything could be said, Eric finally made his presence known, swooping down to take in the destruction around them.
“What did I miss?” Eric wondered with raised eyebrows, beyond relieved to see that Sookie and Adele looked to be unscathed.
She walked over to him, placing the baby in his arms. “Hold her for me; I have to take care of something.”
Eric did as he was told, confused when she moved back over to Bill.
Sookie glared at her ex, slapping him hard across the face, which took the dark haired vampire by surprise. “I know exactly what you did, Bill Compton! You hired those men to take me, saying bullshit about how Eric would pay them if I was returned safely, but you had no intention of that ever happening, did you? No, this was all just a ploy to make it look like you were the one to save me, wasn’t it? You would seem like the big hero and I would what, fall back in your arms? If you actually believed that for a second, you really don’t know me at all. You killed these men in cold blood; they were only involved in the first place because of you. My baby could have been hurt because of you; did you even take that into consideration? I have never hated you more than I do right now. As of this moment, you no longer exist to me. If I ever see you again, I swear I will make you meet the final death. That is if Eric doesn’t do it first.”
He stepped closer at her speech, and the fact he was carrying a baby was the only thing to stop him from ripping Compton’s head right off. “I should kill you very slowly for this, but I think the worst torture will be knowing that the woman you claim to love wants nothing more to do with you. Every day of your pitiful existence will be spent alone, grieving over what you have lost, but make no mistake. There will be no other warnings, Compton. If you come anywhere near Sookie or her child, if I find out that you have caused them any pain, you will regret it.”
“The baby wasn’t supposed to be here!” Bill amended. “I never meant for her to be involved. You have to understand that I would have never harmed your child, Sookie. I couldn’t bear the thought of anything happening to her, and I knew you would have been protected. No one was supposed to get hurt.”
“Except for those men, right?” she said, pointing to the lifeless bodies on the floor. “Of course, why should you care about simple humans? I’m tired and cranky, nothing you say will change what you tried to do, whether you meant for her to be involved or not. We’re done here, but I’ll leave you with this. Eric is her father, he’s the only one who matters and that’s all you need to know.” Sookie sighed in relief when he took off, turning her attention on Eric, who now had a sleeping Adele resting in his arms. He always did know just how to sooth her. “Can we go home now?”
He nodded, picking her up and being very careful with his precious cargo as he flew away.
Neither said a word until they were back at the house, Eric could tell how exhausted Sookie was and after changing Adele, placed her inside the crib before joining Sookie in the living room.
“I can’t believe you didn’t kill him.”
Eric sat beside her on the couch. “Trust me, I want nothing more, but despite all that he has done, I know his death would hurt you. I may not be the one to punish him, but I will have to report his actions to Sophie-Anne. He has broken many rules by her standards.”
Sookie agreed, knowing there was nothing she could do about that, but Bill brought this all on himself. “I’m so tired.”
He picked her up, placing her on his lap as his arms wrapped securely around her. “I must admit, hearing you tell Compton that I am Adele’s father was very pleasurable. I have never wanted to fuck you more than in that moment.”
Sookie laughed. “Always the romantic,” she responded, touching her lips to his and letting out a yawn when she pulled back.
Eric guided her head to his shoulder, kissing her hair. “Rest now, dear one, everything will look up tomorrow.”
Unlike Bill, when Eric told her something, she believed him. It was that thought which had her drifting off to a peaceful sleep.
Eric knew what he was feeling; it had been there for months now, but hearing her officially call him the baby’s father, in front of Compton no less, was all the hope he needed. He still hadn’t voiced the words to her yet, finding them hard to get out, but there was no doubt in his mind that he felt them. In time, he would tell her, but as of this moment, he was content with how things were going. With that notion in mind, Eric pressed a kiss to her forehead, whispering softly in her ear, “jag älskar dig.”
