DAKOTA STOOD FROZEN ON HER SPOT BEHIND THEM AS SHE WATCHED THE WOMAN DEVOUR THE VIKING'S FACE. The blonde didn't know whether to laugh, cry or tear the vampire's face off. It hadn't even been a second before Eric grabbed her shoulders and carefully pushed her away from him. He had not reacted to the kiss at all but he could feel her anger from behind him. Nora looked up at him strangely, tilting her head to the side when he shook his head at her. The viking kept her at arms length and looked down at her fondly but there wasn't anything else behind those blue eyes.
"What? I haven't seen you in years and you push me away?" she retorted, face covered in dust and a small cut just above her eyebrow. Her English accent was prominent as the words slipped from her mouth.
"Friend of yours?" uttered Dakota, crossing her arms over her chest and Eric turned his gaze towards her. He looked apologetic but he hadn't done anything wrong and Dakota knew this, she was just bitter at another woman throwing herself onto him, but could she blame her? "What a warm welcome, indeed."
"Oh, oh!" said Nora, eyes wide as she looked between the two of them. "I'm so sorry! I didn't know my brother was seeing someone?"
"Brother?" echoed Bill, brows raised.
"What the fuck." said Dakota as she pulled a face.
"Not by blood. It's a long story." said Eric, heaving a sigh as he turned to face his progeny. "And I promise you, from the bottom of my dead heart that I only have eyes for you."
Dakota narrowed her eyes slightly as she saw Nora hold up her hands in defence. "You better."
The viking shot her a grin and grabbed the back of her head, pulling it back by her hair softly as he pressed his lips against her own in a searing kiss. Bill cleared his throat and quickly turned away from the two of them, scratching the back of his head.
"Now that that is settled." said Nora, smiling warmly at Dakota as she took a step toward them. "It is nice to meet you ..."
"Dakota." she said, offering a smile in return. "You too."
Nora peered up at her vampire brother and said, "I didn't know you had another progeny besides Pam. One you've been fucking. And would you like to explain why she is both vampire and ... is that human? I've never smelled something that good."
"Always so blunt." tutted Eric as he rolled his eyes and squeezed Dakota's shoulder in the process. "This is a conversation for another time, Nora. Tell us what the fuck is going on."
"Of course," Nora gave him a single nod as she began to walk away from the wreckage before the police would show up. Eric and Dakota shared a glance and followed after her with a grumpy Bill in tow. "I'm a chancellor of the Authority and therefor work for them. The guardian wanted Nan followed to make sure she carried out his orders. I saw an opportunity to save Eric, so I took it."
