Godric Pov
Bending over her, I brush her hair back from her face, her eyes never leaving me. “R..RIC.. I’m…cold and sleepy,” she stutters out  kissing her lips gently.

 

“My love stay with me please.Let me give you my blood . Please let me heal you.” I hear her heart stutter inside her chest. And suddenly I don’t care if she hates me.from the wound the bullet went through the other side. Biting into my wrist i forced  my blood down her throat.My child had disappeared. I knew he went to hunt for the shooter. I don’t care about all the years i have been peaceful. For this the shooter will die horribly. And If she dies then I will not stop until his entire family is gone.

 

A bright light came from my beloved. As her wound was healing. I could finally hear my daughter  on the phone with ludwig.

 

“Ric I love you..” And Callie was asleep. I could feel my panic rise inside. This girl,this light, my own angel. Taking her into my arms i cried as i bit into my wrist feeding her my blood. “Forgive me,this is not how i wanted things to be.” I felt a swell of emotions in my chest.We had discussed her taking my blood. But part of me wanted to tell her everything before that happened. Now if she lives and finds out i lied to her. And that she is has my blood in her system? I just held her in my arm tight to my chest. I swear i will tell her everything, gods if she lives. I can take her angry or hate.Just let her live.  The wind picked up and a huge clap of lightning struck the clear night sky.the earth shook beneath us the wind just picked up faster. My eyes fell back to my dying love. What just happened?

 

It was a few minutes later i could tell she was  getting stronger.Her wound still hadn’t fully healed and i licked it shut the rest of the way. I felt warm, not like one does from a blanket or fire. Not this heat was coming from within.Flashes of a little girl in a pale purple dress  twirling around the room with a vampire not my own.only the way she looked at her was familial. Flashes of her growing up. The tears and agony in her heart when she was sent away from her family unit. The loneliness she felt. How in her teen years all the pain surfaced in the form of scarlet red lines on her arms. Some looked deep as she was wheeled into the hospital. I could feel myself fading from the suddenly bright surroundings. How could she  have gone through this?

 

“ Master, master,Master!” the frantic voice of my child rouses me from my thought. “ Eric ?” i sound dazed even to myself until  the slight weight in my arms drew my eyes to rest on my beloved.Her breath seemed to even out. She could live, I will have to call ludwig. “We need to get her  to safety. She is still too weak.” He was right so i nodded to him and we sped to the cars and i followed Eric to my house. She would be safe with me and mine.

 

We entered the tall stone gates and up the long the driveway. I was quick to park and pick her  up in my arms.Eric typed his code in and the door opened. I place her on my couch and dialed the number  for the good doctor. Minutes later there was a knock on my door. Eric had already arrived at the door, motioning  for me not to move. I went to scold him, how dare he? I could punish him for his insolence. He stared at me obviously  feeling my rage. He bowed his head for a minute before he spoke.

 

“ Master forgive me, you were distracted, so you didn’t sense them until they knocked.While she is recovering you should stay close. I fear she is now tied to you more than we can tell at the moment.” I nodded accepting his answer. I didn’t have to like it though.

 

The door opened , Sookie  was by my side a fireball in her hand at the ready. How I love my children. “Listen tall dark scary, we knows yous has our girl.We knows shes not good.Now let us in before we put a stake up your ass and into your dead heart!” I couldn’t help shake my head and chuckle both Eric and Sookie  shared confused looks. “It’s alright Eric that would be Mickey one of her closest friends. Though mickey I would be careful about threatening vampires. Eric could’ve killed you.” Mickey smiled and walked in past Eric . Behind him strolled in Tina looking dangerous. She had stayed quiet until I heard.

 

“Oh my ever loving gods what did you do RICK? She has had your blood?Why tell me you had a very good reason to give it to her.” I shocked, I was never questioned. It is the love that my beloved has for her, that she has her head.

 

“We were out to dinner and she got shot. Eric  went to get the attacker. Eric where is low life?” Eric sighed  “He must have taken a potion or pill, and died before i got there. He had a mark of black arrow with a red tip. I am not sure what it means.”  I heard to distinguished gasps before pound of frantic hearts.

 

“Mickey, you call Adrian and I will call Octavia. We are out of time. How they found her I am not sure.” I froze what did my brother truly have to do with this? What the hell is going on! And what does that little girl sleeping on my couch have to do with anything. A stirring in my blood told me Callie was  trying to wake up.Her eyes never opened and whatever was going on in her head it had her scared.Kissing her lips I sat down beside her. I will tell her everything when she wakes up. No more secrets and no lies.
