The Lost Halfling

There's a new King in Town

*~Brief POV from Sam~*

After the last talk I had with Magnolia I found myself drawn to her and I didn't understand why.  Sookie was no longer a thought in my head.  I found myself often outside her place in dog form.  But now I have a reason to talk to her as her sister is missing without any clues.  It's like she isn't on earth anymore.  I found where she last was and then her scent is just gone.  Like she just disappeared from that spot.  I feel like I failed Magnolia somehow even though she never made it my job to keep her sister safe.  I'm so confused by my feelings.

*~Back to Magnolia~*

After the unfortunate deaths of Bill the Bore and Russell and his Wolf Gang we've been busy.  The death of the wolf gang was part of the busyness.  Bye bye Debbie Pelt.  I had the misfortune of meeting that bitch.  This misfortune though led to my pleasure in killing her.  Woops.  Sorry not sorry Alcide.  But now we've been busy with the boring council mother fuckers.  Sookie will turn in her grave if she knew all I've been up to and the amount of cursing I've been doing.  They needed evidence that I was turned and that Pam turned someone.  I passed their inspection as being a vampire.  They didn't appear to suspect I was anything other than a vampire.  So now they've been in discussion on who should take over the two kingdoms that are now without a Queen or King.

I naturally already know how this is going to play out not that so I'm not concerned.  I am concerned about the council though.  They're staying high as hell on Lilith's blood.  They're deep in that Kool-Aid.  We'd have to do something about that eventually.  Anyways, I'd just gotten home from council bullshit when there's a knock at my door.  I frown wondering who that could be.  Ooh is it girl scout time?  I could go for some cookies.  I skip to my door and open it to see not a girl scout but instead Sam.  I tilt my head in confusion as to what he's doing here.  Also, why am I feeling that tug in my gut like I did with Eric and Godric who are still with the council.  Seriously Danu?  Another mate?

"Hi Sam, how can I help you?" I asked as I stepped to the side to let the handsome man enter.

Brain why are you referring to him as a handsome man?  Fuck my life, another mate.  Before my thoughts could continue they were interrupted by Sam pulling me into his chest with a hug.

"I'm so sorry Mags.  I let you down." Sam said into the beautiful Fae's hair.

"What's wrong Sam?" I asked in confusion.

"Sookie.  She's gone.  I didn't protect her for you." Sam said.

"Sam I never asked you to protect her so take it easy.  Also, she's fine.  At least for now she is.  If she was in trouble I'd know it.  I'm able to feel when someone related to me is in trouble.  I suspect some pesky Fae abducted her or maybe she went willingly since she's heartbroken over Bill's betrayal." I said.

"Bill betrayed her?  I knew she shouldn't trust that fucker." Sam said in irritation.

"Same.  We told her but she had to find out for herself." I said with a shrug.

"I'm glad you're ok.  You smell different though." Sam said with a tilt to his head.

"Do you say that to all the ladies Sam?  Because you probably shouldn't." I said with a head tilt.

If you're wondering if I'm still in Sam's arms then yes, yes I am.  Because this is completely normal.  Also, I am worried about Sookie being in Faerie because I don't know if I have control yet if I had to go get her ass.  I don't want to drain every Fae.  That will be a bridge I'll cross when and if I have to cross it.

"I'm not saying you smell bad.  You still smell delicious.  You smell too good to me if I'm honest.  But you smell different.  Did something happen?" Sam asked.
