Chapter 15

Luna returned to the booth with a blank expression on her face, sliding along with leather seats before returning to her previous position next to her child. She knew that what was going to occur soon was going to cause a lot more trouble than it was worth.

Sighing, she shifted closer to Godric who was more than a tad pleased with her move. He liked to have her close and it delighted him when she would so openly show her affection towards him.

Eric was still refusing Sookie's and Bills request to take the difficult newborn vampire off their hands, it not being his duty after all, when he rolled his eyes as soon as he caught sight of the object of their conversation actually attempt to sneak into his bar.

Did she really think he wouldn't notice?

Shaking his head at the denseness of the child vampire, Eric turned his attention towards his child only to see her staring intently at Godric. He could see why, the pure devotion in the eyes of his maker was something he was still trying to get used to.

It only seemed to make him more curious to hear the story of how Luna became what she was, since while he had only just been clued into how his maker was changed his curiosity wasn't diminished in the slightest. He wanted to know more.

Not to mention he had to make another bet with Luna and triumph over her; he loathed losing.

Pushing away his thoughts he turned his attention back towards Compton, rolling his eyes when he took note that the civil war vampire hadn't even noticed that his childe had entered the premises.

He really was a pathetic vampire.

"Perhaps you should be more firm with her, Compton" Eric drawled as he cut off the beginnings of another one of Sookie's rants.

Bill raised a brow. "I am firm with her, it isn't my fault if the girl refuses to listen!"

"And what is your idea of being firm?" Pam sniggered. "Threaten to ground her?"

Luna shook her head in wonder when she heard Pam's question, her disbelief rising when it soon became clear that Bill had actually tried to do just that. Is this how makers were teaching their children nowadays? If so, it was truly ridiculous.

Scowling, Sookie turned her attention to Luna. "Why don't you help?"

Not believing the actual nerve of the telepath in front of her, Luna clenched her jaw as her fingers tightened their grip where her hand laid on Godric's upper thigh.

"Excuse me?"

Swallowing at the harshness of the vampires tone Sookie realised immediately that she should have just kept her mouth shut, it only being made clear the more the ancient seemed to talk.

"Why should I when I was not the one to change her? If you no longer want the responsibility then simply kill her."

Bill snapped his head up at that. "I am not going to kill her!"

"Why?" Luna raised a brow. "You don't want to kill her and yet you don't want to train her, look after her, teach her...It is your fault for wanting to turn her in the first place."
