Chapter 04
After Pam had taken Bill away, Eric turned to Sookie who was still standing in the same place with a look of complete shock on her face. Eric hoped the shock was just from having found her mate, not that her mate was him. He was looking forward to getting to know his little mate in every way possible. Yes, he had been planning on making her his, but this put things in a totally different light. He had known she was special the moment she walked into his bar a week ago. Her smile lit up the entire bar and her scent, despite being tainted with Bill’s, had the attention of every vampire there. Eric had been intrigued by her being on the worm’s arm. Something so beautiful and wonderful smelling really deserved to be with someone worthy of her. Then, add in her spirit and fire, and you had one hell of a woman. Bill had no clue just how special Sookie was, but Eric was sure, even then. She needed guidance and he had planned on becoming her guide through the Supe world. Now it would seem his senses knew something before his brain did. Nevertheless, Eric had noticed the yellow flash and was wondering who they were missing. He couldn’t imagine sharing Sookie with another vampire unless it was… No, it couldn’t be… Yet, that was the only answer he could come up with. The Fates had to know the only other vampire any vampire could share without all the vicious feelings would be their Maker.
Godric. It had been almost a century since he had last been in his Maker’s presence. Eric checked the bond with Godric and found it somewhat muted. Confused over this, Eric sent his happiness through the bond and waited for Godric’s reply. He didn’t have to wait long to feel his Maker’s curious ping in reply. Eric chuckled, knowing Godric would be calling him soon. The not knowing what had made his Child send him a burst of happiness would get the better of him. In the meantime, he needed to speak to Sookie over how this new development was about to change both their lives. He wondered if she had caught the yellow flash as well. He didn’t have long to wait.
“Eric, what was the yellow flash after the green arc?” Sookie asked, a bit of confusion coloring her tone. “I know the green arc meant we are mates, but I’ve never heard of a yellow flash happening.”
Eric took in her confused state and told her, “The yellow flash signified that we are part of a trio. We still have one other to add to our lives. I do not think Pam or Bill saw the yellow flash.”
Sookie looked thoughtful for a moment, and then asked, “I thought vampires didn’t like to share?”
Eric shook his head and replied, “We do not as a rule. There is only one vampire with whom most of us do not mind sharing and that would be our Makers. Since my Maker would be the only one with whom I would share you, I can only believe he is our missing link. Apparently, we are a mated trio, as rare as that may be.” he informed her with a thoughtful look on his face.
Sookie took all this in and then asked, “OK, when will I get to meet your Maker so we can find out if your theory is correct?”
Her question took Eric off guard for a moment. He would not lie; he had really expected her to at least have some strong words to say about being part of a trio. His little Southern belle was just full of surprises. He was going to truly enjoy getting to know her. If Godric was, indeed, their missing mate, then they would need to plan a visit to Dallas very soon. Just at that moment, Eric’s cell phone rang.
“Hello, Master.” Eric said without looking at the caller ID.
With an exasperated sigh, Godric replied, “How many times must I tell you not to call me that? Now what has you so happy, my Child?”
Eric chuckled and answered, “At least once more, Master. As for what has me so happy, well, I have found my mate.”
“Truly! Who is the lucky woman and when will I get to meet her?” Godric asked with a chuckle of his own at Eric’s antics.
“Well, the lovely Miss Sookie Stackhouse, from Bon Temps is her name, and we were just deciding when to make a trip to come see you,” Eric inflicted his voice with a hint of a secret, knowing Godric would pick up on it and be even more curious about the situation.
“Have you made a decision yet or should I come to you? I could be there by tomorrow shortly after sunset. Isobel could run things for a while in my absence. That way, you and your lovely mate could continue your own routines while I check out your bar and the Area. Would that be acceptable to you both?” Godric asked. He hadn’t seen Eric in almost a century and that just would no longer do. It was past time for him to visit his Child and check out the Area he oversaw. Maybe a change of scenery would do him good. He had been feeling…well…not much for a few years now. Perhaps going to Shreveport and catching up with Eric while meeting his Child’s mate would be just what he needed.
“As long as you are certain Isobel will not mind you leaving your Area in her care, a visit would be most welcome. It has been too long, Godric. I know Sookie looks forward to meeting you,” Eric said while watching Sookie nod her head vigorously.
“Very well, then. It is settled. I will inform Isobel momentarily and make the necessary arrangements. I should be there about an hour or so after sundown,” Godric replied with a bit more life in his voice than when he first made the call. He was thrilled for Eric having found his mate. He’d waited long enough and was due some happiness. Now if only he could find his mate. Godric held no hope in ever doing so. His timer had yet to reset in several decades, maybe for him it was not meant to be. Still, he would be happy for Eric and would look forward to meeting this Sookie. From the tone of Eric’s voice, Godric could tell Eric had held something back. He also knew that this Sookie had no idea just how happy she already made his Child. She must really be some woman for her to already have Eric wrapped, at least partially if not totally, around her finger.
“Isobel,” Godric called. Within moments, Isobel stood in front of Godric, awaiting his reason for the summons.
“Tomorrow night I will fly to Shreveport to spend some time with Eric and his mate. I will need you to take the reins of the area while I am gone. I know you can do this with no problems; however, if something should arise and you should need my counsel, do not hesitate to give me a call.”
“Eric found his mate? How wonderful! Take all the time you want, you have needed a vacation for several years. I can handle the Area for as long as you need. Please send my congratulations to Eric for me,” Isobel said with a smile. She knew Godric needed to get away, something she had been trying for years now to get him to do. It would be good for him and maybe help lighten his mood. He’d been a bit distant for a while now and Isobel was worried about him. Maybe this trip would be just what he needed.
“Thank you, Isobel, and I will pass along your congratulations to the couple for you. Is there anything you need to discuss with me before I take my leave tomorrow?” Godric knew she could handle anything the Area could throw her way, but wanted to make sure she had no pressing concerns. He had been training her to take his place for the past few years now, since he had started to grow bored with his position. She was ready and he may just be as well for her to take over. This ’vacation.’ as she put it, would be a great test run for them both.
“I have nothing which comes to mind. Why not go ahead and take off tonight? I think it would be a wonderful surprise for Eric and his mate. There is nothing going on that demands your attention and there is still plenty of night left for you to enjoy a relaxing flight and good company to end the evening,” Isobel said with some pushy encouragement. She didn’t want anything to come up to cause Godric to have to stay any longer than need be. If he left now, if something came up, she would handle it. She was pretty sure that Godric had been training her these last few years to take over the Area for reasons only known to him. She would gladly step into the role if it meant Godric would become livelier than he had been. He was paler than he should be and was becoming more distant as the months passed.
“I believe I will. Thank you, Isobel, and know I trust you completely. You are a natural. I will give you a call in a few days to let you know how long I will be staying and to give you an update on Eric and his mate,” With that said, Godric went to the open window and took flight. The night air was nice and cool, but not cold, and it felt wonderful rushing by him. It had been too long since he had taken such a long flight and he was wondering now why he hadn’t done it before. The gift of flight was, by far, the best gift he had received after his turning. His Maker never knew he could fly; Godric had killed him before he learned he could. It was best that way; his Maker would have been jealous and would have punished Godric for having a gift as wonderful as flying.
