Chapter 9
Bill was jerked out of bed by an incessant pounding on his front door, grumbling as he went to see who was stupid enough to disturb him so early in the morning. Eric Northman was the last person he expected to see on the other side.
“What the fuck do you want?”
Eric glared at the much smaller man. “You have a lot of nerve, Compton. What did you hope to accomplish with your little stunt? Did you really think Sookie would believe your lies? Is this your attempt to try and win her back, or are you just that big of an asshole? I think it would be the latter since you made it very clear that you wanted nothing to do with her.” He crossed the threshold, getting into Bill’s face. “I don’t care how you knew about my family, but when you use them as some ploy to turn Sookie against me, that is where we have a problem.”
He scoffed. “What are you gonna do, hit me again? I happen to be very close friends with the police chief; it would be my word against yours. Unfortunately for you, I already have the black eye to prove it.”
“You can’t hide behind other men forever, but I’m only here because you obviously didn’t listen to my last warning. If I see you anywhere near Sookie again, if I find out that you’ve caused her any pain, emotionally or physically, I will end you.”
“Oh, now you’re giving me death threats? I’m sure the police would love to know about that!” Bill yelled after his retreating back.
Eric kept walking, not about to let the little bastard get to him. At the moment, all he cared about was Sookie’s safety. If Bill did anything to jeopardize that, the man would pay in very severe ways, and no concern of spending time in a jail cell would stop him.

“Are you sure this is a good idea, Sook?”
She rolled her eyes for what felt like the millionth time, really tired of the lectures at this point. “The rumors aren’t true, Sam. I don’t care what Bill or anyone else says, I know Eric better than you do. He’s a good man; you would see that if you took the chance to get to know him. He’s my boyfriend now and you’re just gonna have to deal with that, I don’t talk bad about the girls you’ve dated.”
He agreed. “I know, but I just worry about you. After everything Bill put you through, I can’t stand seeing you get hurt again.”
“And I appreciate that, but you don’t have to worry so much. I’m a big girl, more than capable of taking care of myself. I’ve been doing it for a long time now,” Sookie explained, smiling when Eric entered the bar and took a seat at his regular table. It had only been two weeks since they officially became a couple, but now he made a habit of coming in whenever he was on his lunch break.
Sam noticed the lingering stares between the two, letting out a sigh. “Fine, get over there and take his order, I’ll be in the back.”
Sookie knew he wasn’t really there for the food, but still headed over with her pad, a smile firmly in place.

Sam put the check down in front of Eric after Sookie went to deal with another table, giving the man a look.
“Did you really punch Bill Compton?”
Eric was startled by the question, but wasn’t about to lie to one of Sookie’s best friends. “Yes, he was saying a lot of rude things about her. It felt like the right thing to do at the time.”
Sam nodded, picking up the check and ripping it in half. “Your meal is on the house, but that’s only for today. Don’t be expecting any special treatment just because you’re Sook’s new man and all, you got it?”
Eric nodded as well. “Understood, thank you.”
He walked away, exchanging a smile with Sookie behind the bar, showing her without words that Eric met his approval. Anyone who stood up to Bill Compton was good in Sam’s book.

Sookie was on cloud nine days later, the looks she kept receiving around town wouldn’t even damper her mood. Eric was wonderful; they had yet to go beyond the kissing stage, but that was more than fine with her. It was great being in a relationship with a man who didn’t always pressure her to have sex, another clue that Bill wasn’t all he seemed. She should have known when he stopped pestering her about it, that likely meant he was going to someone else. Sookie hated herself for not seeing the signs before, but that was all behind her now. She was moving on, and could not be happier by the outcome.
Too lost in her daze, Sookie accidentally crashed into someone, ready to apologize profusely, until she realized who the other person was.
“Perfect, just what I needed to make my day even shittier.”
Sookie raised her eyebrows, her good mood suddenly evaporating. “Okay, I’ve about had enough, what is your problem with me? Bill chose to be with you, so I don’t understand why you’re always on my case. I never did anything to you.”
Lorena rolled her eyes. “I could care less about you, and William obviously chose the better woman. I see you’ve found another stallion to occupy your time. A little out of your league, don’t you think? He came to my boyfriend’s house and started making false accusations, I wonder why. It’s really sad how you need someone else to fight your battles for you.”
“I didn’t tell Eric to go over there, but any accusations he made were not false. Bill is the one who does nothing but tell lies, you’ll realize that soon enough.” She clenched her fists at her side, noticing that Lorena was rubbing her arm and when she moved her hand an inch, there was a clear bruise marring her flesh. Before Sookie could say anything, the other woman took off across the marketplace, apparently done with the conversation.
* * * * *
Sookie flung her head back to give him better access to her throat, letting out a soft moan. They were currently on his bed since it was bigger than hers, both completely topless. It was evidently further than the making out stage, but their bottoms remained on.
Eric fondled her breasts, lavishing her nipples with his tongue as she continued making the most adorable sounds. He paid special attention to each breast, before moving lower to her stomach, kissing her belly and tonguing her navel, causing her to giggle. He lowered her boy shorts a bit, which were sexy as hell on her, but wouldn’t remove them all the way. Eric was aware that this was as far as things would likely go for right now, but he was in no hurry. He glanced up into her glazed eyes, seeing the pleasure clearly written all over her features. “Is this okay?” he wondered softly, leisurely slipping a finger into her shorts and meeting her wet center.
She gasped, nodding her head adamantly. “God, yes, don’t stop.”
Eric grinned, that being the last thing he had in mind. With her words of admission, he pushed two more fingers inside of her pussy, sliding them in and out. “Let yourself go, dear one, I’ll catch you.”
Sookie arched her back, coming hard with a cry as he continued to thrust into her.
He caught her scream with his mouth, kissing her senseless, pulling his fingers out when he felt that she was good and sated. Eric rested at her side, wrapping his arms around her shivering form. After licking his digits clean, he pulled the blanket up to cover them with.
“Holy crap, if that’s how I feel after just having your fingers inside of me, I think the main course might put me in a coma.”
Eric chuckled, kissing the top of her head. “We wouldn’t want that, but what has you so distracted? I know you enjoyed every second of what I did to you, but I could tell that your mind was elsewhere.”
Sookie sighed, snuggling up against him. “I ran into Lorena at the store today. She was being her usual charming self, but there was something else that bothered me. Her arm was bruised, as if someone yanked her hard. I can guess who that someone was.”
“You think Bill is hurting her?”
She shrugged. “I wouldn’t put it past him; we know he doesn’t seem to have any problems with being abusive. I have a feeling that might not be the first time he’s hurt her, I just don’t understand how anyone could stay with a man like that. If he beat me at all during our relationship, I would have been gone right when it happened, but Lorena’s always been weak. She can’t be on her own; usually the men she goes after are pretty rich, no matter how horrible they might treat her. She’s not exactly a saint herself, but no one deserves that. God, this pisses me off, it’s just one more thing Bill gets away with. I know Lorena would never come clean, if I confronted her about this, she’d just deny that he ever did anything to her.”
“As I told you before, lover, no one is that slick without eventually getting caught. He’ll screw up sooner or later,” Eric commented, trailing his hand down her arm to try and sooth her.
“Yeah, but what if it’s too late?”
He didn’t know what to tell her, instead guiding Sookie’s head to his shoulder, running his fingers through her hair until she fell asleep. With a smile on his face, Eric followed right behind her in slumber.
