Y/N POV:
I checked my phone screen for the hundredth time in the last five minutes. Eric had promised to meet me in Fangtasia for my birthday.
Because big birthday parties with a load people...just fuck no.
I watched as vampires and humans shuffled out of the bar on Eric's orders to clear the place for me. Dancers left their poles. Fangbangers hampered like lost puppies after their vampire friends.
Tara was behind the counter cleaning the bar. She ducked under the counter and pulled out a gift wrapped in black shiny paper with golden glitter patterns on it, with a huge black bow covered in black glitter.
I would have been happy with the paper itself it was that gorgeous.
" Tara, you didn't need to..."
" Shut the fuck up and open it Y/N"
I cautiously torn at the paper, trying not to ruin its beauty.
" Don't worry the paper is not going to be extinct tomorrow"
I threw her a petty look before destroying the paper left.
Tara had bought be a short black dress that was tight all over. It had a heart shaped chest with diamond straps and a pair of black wedges to match. The dress was beyond stunning.
" You like?"
" Tara, I don't know what to say..."
" Say nothing, put it on!"
I went to Eric's office with the dress to try it on. I slipped off my loose grey cop top to reveal my black bra under neath and pulled off my black satin leggings.
" Aren't you a majesty..."
I flipped around to see Mr. Stud himself standing in the doorway, staring at my near naked body.
" Fucking hell you scared me!"
" So it is true. Things do get better with age,"
I chuckled playfully,
" Well wouldn't you know..."
He moved closer towards me as I pulled on the dress. He buried his chiselled face into my neck and began to kiss my neck slowly. I moaned quietly, I pulled him into my lips and began to melt into the moment.
He grabbed the top of my thigh, lifting me onto his refined body.
Even the fucking sight of him turned me on.
He pulled off my dress and growled seductively. I whipped his shirt off and stroked my hand down his torso,
" So, what's my gift?"
He leaned in, breathless, whispering,
But a voice beat him to it.
" Eric you son of a bitch, where are..."
Alcide, by brother, burst in the door of Eric's office. We stopped and all started at each other.
Utterly mortified.
" You should have knocked,"
" You should have kept ur dick in your pants!"
"Alcide! Stop being such a sour wolf!"
Him and Eric growled at each other, they bore petty looks at each other.
Making it awkward for me because I had to growl at them to stop getting on like children.
" C'mon Y/N, everyone's waiting for ya,"
I threw my dress on quickly and laced up my wedges before I ran my hands through my hair to fix it. Eric buttoned up his black shirt and re tied his black tie.
He looked too handsome for anyone in the room.
" Still got it?"
" I have been alive for a millennia, of course I still got it babe,"
He linked his fingers in mine and strode out of the office to a crowd of my closest friends all standing around a table with a five tier cake that was covered in white fondant with blood red roses surrounding every layer with gold leaves and icing patterns and each layer held up by white roman styled pillars.
Alcide came up to me and threw me in a strong brotherly hug for a solid minute before handing me a small gift box that had a 16 karat silver chain necklace with a diamond in the centre, wrapped inside a silver patterned ring with matching diamond earrings,
" Holy fuck Alcide, this is too much..."
" You deserve way more than this so just say thank you!"
He pulled out the necklace and put it around my neck. The gem shone in the stage lights like a ran of sunlight.
Thank god it was synthetic light.
Sam came up to me next with his brother Tommy Mickens. I hugged both of them, they had been so good to me. Sam gave me the waitress job at Merlottes when I moved from Jackson with Alcide and needed to pay some stuff off. Tommy was like a second brother to me, we are always laughing together over the real rude ass people that come into Merlottes.
Tommy is also a great running partner on a full moon, after especially the pack kicked out me and Alcide after Alcides bitch overthrew him.
And he said I was in the wrong to be with Eric. That's brothers for ya.
Pam had got a DJ for the evening who proceeded to blast the place with My Chemical Romance and Panic at the Disco.
All of a sudden Eric called for our attention,
" Thank you all for coming tonight. Tonight we are here to celebrate the love of my life's special day. I cannot tell you how incredibly strong , and incredibly pleasurable, she has been to me, and great friend to all of us!"
Everyone cheered and I smiled at Eric, blushing like a flushed rose.
"But I have one treat left for the princess tonight!"
He stepped off the stage and help out his arm. I wrapped my arms around his strong, densely muscled arm as he lead me outside to the parking lot. The night air was crisp and tingled my cheeks. The atmosphere was filled with tension from the electricity of the moment. It consumed me to the point I forgot what was going on, I only focused on night.
Until Eric stroked his thumb on my chin.
He was kneeling down.
" Eric..."
" Y/N?"
" What are you..."
He pulled a small case out of his pocket, flipping up the lid to reveal a 24 karat gold ring with a massive diamond in the centre of it.
" Y/N, will you marry me?"
I put my hands over my mouth in every happy emotion I could not express. Tears welled up in my eyes as I breathed the words
" Yes..."
