Attacking Sookie in a fury, he is staked by Eric.

After a massive blood transfusion, Sookie is healed with a minimum of scarring. They meet again during the packmaster contest, and when Crystal later suffers a miscarriage, Sookie calls on Dr. Ludwig for help.
    It is to her hospital for supernatural patients that Sookie is taken
