Disclaimer: I own nothing it all belongs to Stephanie Meyer and Charlaine Harris. I do like to play with the characters when I get a chance. But oh how I'd love to play with some in real life.

Bella fell in love with Edward he left her. She fell hard for Jake he imprinted on someone else. Bella knows about shifters and the other vampires came out of the closet. Charlie also knew about imprinting so he decided to send Bella to live with her cousin Sookie in Bon Temps, so that she wouldn't have to deal with Jake and his imprint.

Bill was never kidnapped and Sookie never met Alcide until...

I loved coming to Fangtasia but not with Bill and Sookie, she reminded me of how I was with Edward and then with Jake, trying to be who they wanted me to be. And Bill tried to pretend that he owned me too. Fuck that shit, no man owned me, many have tried only to be met with the same shield that has grown over the years, well since James bit me the venom seemed to mix with my faerie blood and made me more powerful than most faeries. Yes I said faerie like Sookie except I was half, apparently it was Renee that was faerie which would explain the flighty mind.

Tonight we had been summoned here by Eric. My tall 6'4 protector, yes he tried more but I wasn't interested in being involved with anyone, and after finding out why my blood calls to most vampires I swore them off forever. I would never know if they wanted me because of me or because of my blood. I would probably assume that it would be because of my blood because since i've been dumped twice in a year. One because his brother felt all their bloodlust and he said he couldn't handle it. The second was because he imprinted, we knew it was a possibility but I fell anyway.

K off topic again. I walked into the bar like I owned the place and went and sat on Eric's throne, earning glares from the fangbangers, giggles were heard from some of the vampires in the bar that knew of mine and Eric's relationship. His maker was sitting in his throne enthralling the vermin as Pam would call them.

Eric must have known what was going on because from the office all I could hear was, "If that little wench is in my throne again,..."

"So what if I was you ass..." i yelled back, he came walking out of his office throwing me over his shoulder and dragged me back to the office. With me staring at his ass the whole time, Godric and Pam following us, laughing the whole way. Now don't get me wrong Eric and Godric are both sexy specimans and if truth be known so is Pam but I so don't want a vamp. Heck I don't even want to bond with them. They all respect that which is why I am here. Apparently Eric has been trying to find me protection during the day. I keep telling him I am more than capable of doing it myself but the macho Viking doesn't want anything happening to me. Also my grandfather, Niall, king of the faeries threatened a certain appendage if any harm came to me. You may wonder why I don't go live in faerie and be protected up there. Its because I don't want to be away from my family down here. Not just the vampires but the people at Merlotte's too. I love them all.

There was a knock at the door it was Sookie and Bill.

"Bella you need to apologize to Bill for hitting him in the nuts." Sookie told me while Bill just glared. I saw Godric and Eric grab themselves as if it was them it happened to and Pam just smirk. She looked like she wanted to high five me but Pam being Pam she wouldn't.

"Fuck you Sookie, I am not apologizing for hitting him." Now you may wonder how I can hit a vampire and not hurt myself easy superpowers. I just thought of hitting him there as if he were a human and it happened.

"Bella you will not speak to your cousin that way." Bill growled at me. Earning three other growls toward him.

I got into his face, "shut the fuck up Bill you do not own me. Nor will you ever."

"Little one, why would you hit Bill again." Godric asked me.

"Cause he was trying to get Sookie to convince me to bond with him. He has no respect for her or me. I will not bond with him." I said looking over to Eric. He looked pissed.

"Compton, you were told not to try to bond with her. If you try to force her there will be a fae war." Eric explained to him once again.

"Yes sheriff." Bill said, glaring at me again.

"Quit it Bill. If I choose to bond with a vampire it wouldn't be you. I need it to be old vampire blood not young blood like yours." I explained once again. He has been told this over and over again. Not only by me, Godric, Eric but also my grandfather.

"Bella, truly I am sorry. I know that you don't want to bond with a vampire, but you need to be protected. As Sookies family I feel it my duty to do that for you." He made one more attempt.

I just shook my head, "no Bill." I went and sat in Eric's chair behind his desk. Knowing this would piss off the Viking. He really needed to find his mate, these fangbangers were not doing it for him.

"Well you summoned us here oh mighty Viking what is on the agenda." I asked earning a smirk from Godric and pam. Also a look of I can't believe you are talking to a thousand year old vampire like that from Sookie and Bill.

"Well you little wench, first get out of my chair," he picked me up and place me on his lap, "Second I have found you protection for the day."

I nodded not really wanting to get into another argument with a vampire. They all held their breath waiting for me to argue but I didn't, instead got up and went back out into the bar for a drink. No one followed me, for which I was grateful.

I got a rum and coke, went and sat in Eric's VIP booth. Grateful to have time to process everything. I noticed that Eric and Godric came out of the office and were sitting on their thrones, Bill and Sookie were sitting by themselves at another table, leaving me the fuck alone. Pam was working the door, I could feel all of them watching me waiting for me to lose it.

They knew that I didn't want to have my every move monitored which is why I didn't bond with any of them and now it being forced on me. Damn maybe I should go live in faerie life would be easier.

I went to get another drink, when I saw him walk into the bar, I knew he wasn't a vampire or human. He must have been a were something or other, he had that rugged look about him. He looked a little taller than Eric. Yummy.

No no more supes Bella. I told myself. But damn this boy is fine.

"Herveaux. Follow me please." I heard Eric say to sex on legs. Eric looked over at me and I saw the smirk I knew he could smell my arousal. I flipped him off. The other vamps just laughed knowing what was going on between the two of us.

APOV

I hated owing Eric Northman a favour but I will do it. Especially if it means I can get my father out of debt with him.

Eric wanted to meet at Fangtasia to discuss business. Normally I would have done this over the phone but he said he needed to do it there. When I arrived a unnamed vampire was working the door, "I'm Alcide Herveaux, Mr. Northman wanted to meet me."

She checked her list, "Yes Mr. Herveaux go right in he is expecting you." She smiled.

I walked in and went over to the bar. I saw the most beautiful woman sitting there. She didn't look like a fangbanger and she didn't smell human.

"Herveaux. Follow me please." I heard Eric come up to me. I saw him smirk at someone and I could smell her arousal. Damn she belongs to Northman. Fuck. Then she flipped him off. No mate would ever get away with that no human would ever get away with that to Eric Northman. What sort of power does she have over him.

Hhhmmmmm!

So if her arousal wasn't for him then who was it for.

I followed Eric into his office, and sat across the desk from him.

I waited for him to start.

"So for this debt that your father owes, I need you to be a bodyguard for someone who is special to the supe world."

"why don't you just bond with this person." I asked him, not believing that he was asking me to be a bodyguard to his latest conquest.

"Actually its not that easy. You see she has been hurt by other supernaturals and she generally doesn't trust us. She won't bond with us." He explained.

I smiled to myself, the great Eric Northman can't get someone to do what he wants, she must be something else.

"So why not bed her and bond with her that way."

He growled at me, "because I never felt that way about her. Its always been more of a sister bond."

"What is she that she must be protected?" I asked just wanting more details on this woman who I was going to protect.

"Why don't I get her in here so that she can tell you herself."

I nodded waiting to see who it was.

REVIEW PLEASE! If you do the Viking and the Werewolf might come to play some more.
