True Blood

Unexpected, Unconditional Love

Chapter 15

After Adelaide was returned safely to Fangtasia, she never left her parent's side. At night she sat perched on her father's lap, on the throne. If anyone so much as looked at her wrong, they were cast out of the bar, rather violently. Weeks after her return, she still slept in her mother's coffin, with Pam's arms wound protectively around her. Even then there were days where Adelaide would still awake screaming, and Pam and Eric both had to reassure their daughter she was safe.

Every night, three hours before Fangtasia became busy the trio would spend time together. Pushing Adelaide on the swings in the park, with a picnic, or take her to see a movie. Eric would smile widely at the way their daughter could make Pam laugh, it was one of the most beautiful sights to behold.

Joy would fill Eric all the way down to his very core every time Adelaide would call him Daddy, especially with a brilliant smile upon her young face. She was his child, She was Pam's child and he would gladly meet the true death an infinite number times to keep her safe and where she belonged. Right there with them, safe in their arms.

Anything Adelaide wanted, no matter the cost, they made sure she got. He would make certain that his daughter wanted for nothing. If he could have given her the world in the palm of his hand he would of. Even with everything she owned and everything she was given, Adelaide has always been grateful, not once did she seemed spoiled. Even though many people warned them she would be if they weren't careful.

Everyone at the bar knew that if they ever brought a tear to that little girl's eye at any time, for whatever reason, they would be seeing the true death within minutes. When it came to their daughter's feelings, Pam and Eric held no mercy. Even when she had helped "redecorate the bar," with markers, paper, glue and glitter, no one dared to discipline her. They had expected Pam and Eric to rule that child with an iron fist, but they never did. They graced that child with such love, that it made even the youngest of vampires miss their families.

It took two solid months before Adelaide was able to sleep during the day without having to sleep with her mother. Pam was both relieved that she was getting better and yet petrified about her not being next to her at the same time. She didn't like not being right there if her child were to need her, but she did not want to hinder her child either so she endured it.

Three short weeks after Adelaide began sleeping in her own bed, she rose well before sunset. Her feet padded ever so lightly on the cement floor, as she stealthily made her way up the stairs into the empty bar. The little girl sat unmoving in the center of the room, clasping tightly to her bear, and she waited.

Time ticked by slowly, and yet patiently she waited. When finally, the young man named Alex appeared in the room. He looked down at the little girl questioningly as a wide grin spread across her tiny face. "Hi Alex."

A devious smile spread across Alex's youthful expression. "Hello Lilith. So the plan was a success."

"Partially," she said bitterly, "The little brat is still here with me, but with time, I will easily snuff her out. She's a strong one, but she won't be able to defy me forever. I don't yet believe she realizes I am here. I remain dormant while she is awake."

Alex nodded, " How are you going to keep them from noticing?"

A wicked smile crossed the little girls face, "They are to relieved to have their precious little Adeliaide back, that by the time they notice something is wrong. It is going to be too late. Their sweet little daughter will be lost to them permanently and I Lilith will be able to day walk for the remainder of eternity."

Alex bowed his head, "When will I receive payment for the repose of my services?"

"Soon Alex," she said reassuringly. "In fact, you should be receiving it before tonights end."

"Very well," he stated with a grin. "I shall take my leave and feel free to contact me again if you should ever require my services again."

She nodded, as Alex vanished from the room. A monsterious smile plastered her face as she slowly descended the stairs stealthily. The only payment Alex would be receiving tonight was death. She would not owe a creature such as him anything.

Creeping back into her bed, with both vampires blissfully unaware of her presence, she allowed herself to stray into a deep blissful, dreamless slumber.

Pam awoke with a start, jolting up quickly, her eyes scanned the room. Her eyes fell upon her daughter's sleeping form and she arose. Moving quietly across the floor, to be sure to not wake her. Pam was relieved to see her child where she belonged. Leaning forward, she pressed a loving kiss upon Adelaide's forehead and smiled.

"You're safe now, sweetie. Mommy will never allow anything bad to happen to you again. I know I am not perfect, and sometimes I am going to yell at you when I don't mean to and I am painfully aware of my many shortcomings and will fail you many times. Just know you are one of the single most the greatest things to happen to your daddy and I. My only other regret is that I never thanked Agatha for giving us you, our most precious gift. Always remember how much you are wanted. Never forget how much your daddy and I love you, it's astonishing, but remember, Little Beast. You might have been unexpected, but I can assure you that no matter what, it will always be an unconditional love."

Fin.
