    Eric felt his phone buzz with a new voicemail.

    "Eric. I request your presence at my home tomorrow evening. There is some matters that we need to discuss. And feel free to bring Sookie if you wish. Kiara shall be here. Tomorrow evening at 8:00pm sharp"

    Normally he wouldn't come to Bill's house unless absolutely necessary however this would be a great opportunity to gauge the situation in that mansion. Not to mention perhaps speak to Kiara personally about their little...arrangement.

    Despite being invited he wouldn't bring sookie with him. She was still being stubborn in her work not to mention he didn't want her to know about any issues regarding Nora's rumors.

    So he put on a casual attire, no need to dress up for Billy after all and let Pam know he was stepping out.

    Getting into his convertible he drove out of Fangtasia. He had a good guess as to what Bill wanted to discuss, but he'd keep an open mind for this.

    Bill had been set about arranging things to clear his schedule for the evening, it was just after 7:30 and although he had not heard word from Eric Northman about being summoned to his estate that he would be here. It was a typical Northman thing, not to let those know he would be arriving, but turning up without note. He had cancelled several meetings with contractors and the King Louie of France for this evening.

    He had yet to tell Kiara that Eric would be making a visit this evening as he knew that she would be in her office upstairs in their private quarter's. He picked up his cell and quickly dialed her desk phone as he waited for an answer.

    Kiara heard the phone ring in her office. She pulled back from reading some inventory sheets on her computer screen. Rubbing the bridge of her nose she reached for the phone, not checking who it was.

    "Griffen speaking..." she said in a business like manner. Her stomach growled, signaling she had been working too long so hopefully after this call she'd go and find some food less Bill grow worried again that she was 'too skinny'

    "Griffen speaking..."

    Bill smirked at her polite manner as her voice echoed down the phone line as he adjusted himself.

    "Well it appears even after hours, you never stop working do you?" he chuckled down the phone.

    He could hear her heart race increase through the phone, he was so in tuned with her, that he could tell her mood instantly.

    "May i pry you away from your work, we have a visitor arriving shortly" he spoke.

    Kiara smiled. The moment she heard Bill's voice a part of her relaxed. That was the official end of work day call.

    "May i pry you away from your work, we have a visitor arriving shortly"

    She wondered who this visitor would be but she shrugged. "Sure. I'll freshen up and be downstairs shortly" she said, already getting up from her desk, taking the cordless phone with her as she wondered over to the master bedroom and the closet. She wondered what to wear. Bill had already spoken to her about how now that they were engaged her appearance and attitude had to be flawless when around him and she wasn't one to embarrass Bill in public.

    "Wear something blue...I have plans for afterwards" he said seductively into the phone as he ended the call.

    Bill relaxed further into his chair, as he looked at the clock on his desk, it read exactly 7:59pm, Eric would be here in a few moments, Eric was not the one to be late for a meeting with the King.

    "Sire?" a voice brought him out of his trail of thought.

    "Yes" he answered.

    "A Mr Northman is here for you. Shall I send him in?"

    "Yes, send him in and have two royal blend warmed and a glass of Miss Griffen's favorite prepared" Bill instructed.

    "Of course Sire" he bowed and exited the room.

    Time to face the music.

    Kiara chuckled. Bill did like blue... mostly tearing it off but he liked it non the less.

    She pulled out one of her newer blue dresses and put it on. She dashed into the bathroom to fix her hair, freshen up a bit and make herself presentable. Aside from some nice drop earrings she wore her gorgeous engagement ring.

    She made her way downstairs, her heels clicking on the hardwood floors. One of the staff directed her to the office where she assumed Bill was.

    Eric was buzzed in from the front gate. He parked his car and was escorted inside. Bill's mansion hadn't changed much. One of the servants brought him to the two large double doors of his office.

    She knocked before opening the door.

    "Sire... Mr Northman" she said, introducing him. Sure enough he spotted Bill looking as fancy as always and Kiara, dressed in a blue that he was surprised looked great on her. Instantly he spotted the large rock on her left hand and he bit back a grin. No doubt this was the news Bill wanted to share.

    Bill's eyes grew wide as Kiara entered the room, the short blue dress that framed her perfectly. He knew that the meeting with Northman would not last long, as he had other plans on his mind.

    "Sire... Mr Northman"

    Bill stood as Eric Northman entered his office, dressed down to what he was accustomed to seeing him wear, without his leather jacket and usual dark attire. Clearly he had other plans to attend to.

    "Eric. You made it. And exactly on time as usual" he smirked.

    "You did ask for 8pm sharp" he said casually as the servant handed him a glass of warm royal blood before closing the door and giving them all their privacy.

    He took in how they both stood, Kiara by Bill's side. He didn't care if she married him as long as she did what he'd ask her to do.

    "It seems I am a tad under dressed though... so what is this all about Your Majesty?" he asked, taking a sip of the blood.

    She smiled, seeing and even feeling Bill's reaction to her dress. However she didn't have much time to enjoy it as Eric walked in.

    She had to keep a blank face. She and Eric had dealings among them and she didn't want Bill to find out. So she plastered on a sweet smile and stayed by Bill's side. She'd let the boys talk. Hopefully Eric wouldn't blow her cover with some retarded smartass comment.

    "It seems I am a tad under dressed though... so what is this all about Your Majesty?"

    Straight to the point as usual with Northman, not wanting to beat around the bush he went straight to the point.

    "I am sure that you are aware that their has been some recent changes around here...The reason why i have summoned you here is to alert to you that Miss Griffen and are due to wed in matrimony within these coming months"

    He waited to see what his response would be.

    Eric quirked a brow and grinned "Well well... looks like second time is the charm for you Bill" he said as he directed his gaze to Kiara.

    "And what a lovely catch..." he said, letting his eyes wonder just to irritate Bill.

    "I assume you wish to do this through the proper channels?"

    "Of course. I have yet to speak the Queen of Oklahoma re-guarding the new change in events. But of course i shall be making a visit to the Queen to discuss these new arrangements" he finished.

    Bill could see that Eric's eyes were glancing at Kiara in her attire, but he refused to let that get to him.

    "As they the second time is always the right one. But i figured that it would be best to let you know of this recent change. Under the circumstances" he said, knowing that Eric would know what he meant.

    Eric inclined his head. Bill did have the queen to deal with but knowing the southern vampire he'd pull a trick out of his well pressed sleeve.

    "Understood. I take it you wish to keep this information private?" he asked. People really didn't need to know Bill was marrying a wolf, especially after the debacle the were community participated in with their ill timed coming out.

    "I would appreciate that this information is kept private for the time being until i go through the appropriate channels. But are Kiara and I are still in the discussion stage. Nothing has been set in concrete. But as your are my Sheriff, it is courtesy to invite those in my area. Of course that invitation extends to your progeny and of course Sookie" he said as he took a sip from his glass.

    As Kiara stood next to him, watching as she remained silent, it seemed that she had taken to the role as his Queen quite well, even though they were not wed.

    Eric nodded. Pam would have a field day on this. Nora would probably flip and Sookie? He wasn't sure how she'd take this news.

    "Very well... is there anything else you needed to inform me about?" he asked, however his eyes drifted carefully to Kiara. It was a strange look, like he knew something Bill didn't.

    "Very well... is there anything else you needed to inform me about?"

    Kiara could feel the weight of Eric's gaze. She moved her eyes side to side in a subtle manner. Eric was trying to ask if she'd found out anything in a roundabout way. She would send him an email later but honestly she had nothing new to report. She had yet to unleash her new toy in the house to do some more investigating.

    She covered her movements by reaching for a glass of wine the servant had brought. She took a sip, giving Eric the tiniest of nods which seemed to placate the Viking as he moved his gaze from her back to Bill without another word.

    "Unless there is any news on your part. Speaking of? Your sister Nora. Has there been any development about why she has it in her head about this supposed secret of me in possession of a vial of blood?" he asked.

    He could not have Nora asking questions and putting doubts into anyone's mind about the vial. It had to stop, he could not have any suspicions raised about this.

    Eric shrugged. "She refuses to say. She seems adamant her word is true but beyond words she doesn't seem willing to do much else"

    He grinned as he set down his empty glass. "You know women Bill. Strange creatures whom even us immortals cannot figure out" he said with a smirk.

    "That is true, after all those years even I find it difficult to understand the female race" he chuckled as he glanced at Kiara.

    Bill drained his glass of blood as he leaned forward in his chair, his elbows resting on his desk.

    "How is Sookie? I have not spoken with her is such a long time. I do hope you will pass along my re-guards. I do wish to speak with her soon" he smirked.

    Eric quirked a brow. "She is fine. Stubbornly independent but not giving me any "fuckin' Sookie" moments" he said casually. Rumor had it something had happened with her brother Jason but he'd use Kiara to get that information. The gods knew Bill was secretive.

    "How is Jessica? I take it her new boyfriend has not won any points with you" he said with a smirk.

    "How is Jessica? I take it her new boyfriend has not won any points with you"

    Bill was waiting for this, Eric's chance to have a dig at his progeny's relationship with the Tiger.

    "Things have escalated further than what i thought, but the Tiger is currently residing in my home for the time being until i deal with my little problem" he said, the words acidly rolling off his tongue.

    He hated to discuss Christian in front of Kiara, but she was well aware of the situation.

    Eric quirked a brow. Despite Bill not being too happy about the tiger this actually presented itself as a great opportunity. He hoped Kiara could also see this as a chance to gleam plenty more secrets from the mansion.

    Kiara just listened politely. Bill seemed to discuss the whole vial thing with a casualness that made her wonder. However what really made her think was when Bill mentioned that Quinn had moved in.

    This could be good or bad, however if she was going to find what she needed she could use all the help she could get and she knew for a fact Quinn knew plenty about this Lillith cult.

    However she kept her thoughts to herself and instead walked behind the desk, placing a hand on Bill's shoulder, playing the sedate, obedient fiance.
