Tessa P.O.V
Russell had both Sook & I by the arms. He was definitely old from his firm grip. I just played along to keep this hidden for the right moment. Bill was dragged in behind us by a guard. His eyes never left us & I could see the genuine fear.
Once we cleared the foyer, Eric crept into the open. My blood boiled & I desperately wanted to kick the crap out of him. He looked embarrassed when we locked eyes for a second. But, he quickly resumed his dickish & cold demeanour as we were thrown towards another vampire. Bill was harshly tossed to the floor.
"Well, guess who turned out to be completely unworthy of our trust." Russell gloated as Bill was tossed into the stairs
"No." A brunette vamp whined
"Why? What's happened?" Lorena asked with some actual fear
"He's been hiding something very interesting from us all." He informed, looking at us
Bill sped forward, grabbing a piece of railing, staking the guard. The guard crumbled into a gooey puddle before he went after Russell. He only got onto his shoulders before he was grabbed by the throat & threw him into the ceiling. He laughed as Bill crashed down onto the stairs.
"Are you serious? I am almost 3,000 years old." Russell cackled
"Bill!" We screamed as we tried to get to him. Eric blocked us every time we tried to move past him.
"Eric, get them out of here, please." Bill pleaded as he was held to watch from the stairs
The stupid Viking just smirked & grabbed us. We tried squirming out of his grip but it just amused him.
"I wouldn't let go of this if I were you." He noted while presenting us to Russell
"I don't know what it is, but I do know it's quite valuable." He suggested
"Eric, what the fuck?" I asked as I struggled to not strangle him
"I've not had the pleasure of tasting it. But all my instincts say it would be quite extraordinary." He teased as he grinned at Sook
"I will never, ever forgive you for this." We snapped.
"It thinks we're equals." Eric chuckled
"Oh, but it's wrong, isn't it?" Russell asked.
"Indeed." Eric disgustingly agreed.
"Do you care nothing about our home?" Our previous captor asked Russell
"Talbot, not now." He dismissed him
"When?!" He snapped before storming off & muttering curses under his breath
"What are you going to do with our Mr. Compton, if I may ask?" Lorena asked, momentarily distracting Russell from us
"Marco, Marcos, take Mr. Compton to the slave quarters." Russell ordered, signalling the guards to take him away
"There, my dear, you will kill him." Russel finished
"No!" Sookie painfully yelled.
"But what's...?" Lorena crumbled
"Do not defy me! I am your King!" He snapped in his real voice, cutting off Lorena
"Your Majesty." She caved & bowed her head
"Take the Misses Stackhouse to the library, Eric. I wanna ask them a few questions after I repair the state of affairs of my marriage." Russell commanded
