AN: Kind of AU, but stays with the main storyline. Bo still cannot control herself and her desire is heightening.
Chapter 4
Lauren examined the results of the serum she tested. It seemed that it came with serious side effects. Like not being able to control herself at all afterward, which would be a big problem. She sighed, How am I going to fix this? she thought to herself. A part of her still couldn't believe that the succubus felt for her this way, especially since the doctor thought she herself wasn't extraordinary at all. So, what drew Bo to her? Maybe that was the more important question.
A man walked in, with grace and charisma that emanated from him. The moment he walked into the room, Lauren noticed. His expensive gray suit, his perfect hair, his handsome face, and the way he talked all screamed Fae the moment he walked in, despite his human appearance. His too perfect appearance.
"Marcel," Lauren greeted, coming around her desk to meet him. He shook her hand and gave her a charming smile, "Dr. Lewis, how can I help you today?" Lauren walked back to her desk to get a chart, "I need to ask you something," she answered. He raised his eyebrows, as if he were expecting more, "Is this about your succubus friend?" he asked. There was a hint of a French accent. The doctor nodded, "Thank you for coming in."
"Anything for you," he remarked. Lauren smiled, she was always flattered by Marcel's charming demeanor. "Have a seat," she offered, waving to the chair next to her desk. She picked up a clipboard from where she was sitting and crossed her legs, getting her pen ready. "Thank you again for doing this," she said and he nodded with a graceful smile, "Of course. What is this about?"
"So, my succubus friend has this hunger," Lauren began. "When she feeds, it doesn't satisfy her though." Marcel gave her a peculiar look and folded his hands together, "All Fae have a hunger, Dr. Lewis. What do you mean?" he asked. "She has a particular hunger for a particular human," Lauren clarified. Her tone was professional, but Marcel gave her a knowing smile. "Does this human, say, happen to be you by any chance?" he asked. The blonde looked up at him and gave a slightly nervous smile, "Maybe," she answered. He chuckled, "Well," he started, "I've only ever heard of this once before. But in the event when a succubus or incubus falling in love, and for some reason we cannot have what we want, a longing manifests itself and becomes... hard to control," he explained. Lauren was a little surprised at the words, "falling in love", but leaned in to listen.
"But it's extremely rare and I've never personally known anyone who suffered from this. I wouldn't say it's a hunger, though. Incubi and succubi are not monogamous creatures, it is not how we function. This longing manifests itself when the Fae is denying themselves what they want and since it is in our nature to always get what we want..." he trailed off. Lauren's eyes were on the clipboard as she was writing, but was waiting for more. "The object of our longing becomes their focus," he continued. Lauren nodded. "But, since the object of her longing is a human, the fact that she could kill you may be enough for her to deny herself. And as such, the longer she denies it, the more intense it will be until she cannot control it anymore," he finished.
"Does she have to feed to fulfill this longing?" Lauren asked, as she wrote down what he explained. He contemplated it for a moment, "Yes." Lauren felt her heart sink, "Is there anyway to control this longing," she asked, "without killing the human?" Marcel sighed and answered, "Possibly. Difficult, perhaps but possible." Lauren nodded, "And how would she be able to do this?" Marcel shrugged, "Just not kill you. She has the self-control to stop herself when she does have you, does she not? She has to feed off you in small amounts and in intervals. To slowly fulfill the need. She just needs to firmer control of herself," he answered.
"What if it's constant?" Lauren asked, making sure to get all this down. "Then she still needs to feed in intervals, she needs to adjust. Once she does that, the longing won't be so strong and she'll tolerate it. She won't be satisfied, but the longing will be manageable. Instead of it consuming her," he responded. Lauren nodded her head, it made sense. "There's a problem though," she added, "The serum I gave her from your hormones, it has a serious side effect." Marcel tilted his head, "The serum was for her?" he asked. Lauren nodded, "She doesn't exactly have self-control," she added. Marcel gave her a confused look but asked, "What are the side effects?"
"When she does feed, the chi is not as potent but she doesn't have any semblance of control afterward and the longing gets stronger," Lauren explained. Marcel was still confused, "Surely, this succubus knows how to control her hunger?" Lauren didn't answer right away but by the look she had, Marcel knew the answer. "Is she a child?" he asked. Lauren looked up, surprised by the question, "No! No, but she just recently discovered what she was and has never been able to control it before." A look of realization dawned on him, "She's the unaligned succubus," he stated. Lauren looked down at her clipboard, nervously tapping the pen in her hand. "Yes," she answered.
"Stop giving her the serum. This is something she needs to do on her own," Marcel instructed. Lauren had an uneasy look, "That's part of what we've been doing but... she isn't very good at self-control." He shrugged, "She will be if she does not want to kill you," he said casually. The blonde nodded, a little discouraged, "Thank you for your help. It was the answers I needed," she said, standing. Marcel stood up as well, "I wish you the best of luck. Although, I would be lying if I said I wasn't interested in this succubus," he added with a smile. Lauren gave a nervous laugh, "You and the rest of Fae society," she replied. She didn't want Marcel to meet Bo. Marcel was good to her, but he was Dark Fae and Bo was unaligned. The Ash wanted Bo to have as little interaction with the Dark as possible.
"Until next time, Dr. Lewis," he said with a smile and walked out the door. Lauren sighed, Bo had a hard road ahead of her.
Bo walked into Lauren's lab. The doctor didn't explain why she couldn't tell what she wanted say over the phone. She was glad to see her again but hesitant. If the succubus didn't know any better, she'd say the doctor couldn't wait until tomorrow to see her. Bo saw Lauren reading a clipboard, apparently reviewing some notes she took. "Hey," Bo greeted, "Another test?" she asked. Lauren looked up and smiled, "No. I have good news." Bo perked up.
"You don't need the serum anymore. I talked to the incubus and he said that you needed to develop self-control on your own. Little by little," she explained. Bo sighed, it wasn't what she was hoping for. "We have been. Or at least, been trying," she said. Lauren nodded, giving Bo a sympathetic smile, "I know. But you have to feed off of me-"
"No," Bo interrupted, even though her body said something different. Lauren sighed, "You didn't even hear everything I have to say." Bo shook her head, "I don't need to, Lauren. I'm not going to feed off of you. Remember the last time that happened?" Lauren walked up to the succubus and continued anyway, "You have to feed off of me little by little to build a tolerance and to establish a sense of self-control." Bo sighed and didn't reply. She knew what this meant. "You're going to handcuff me to the table more often. And this time, I'll be tased." Lauren chuckled, "The handcuffs won't be necessary. You have to do it on your own. But the taser may not be ruled out."
"Somehow, I think that's worse," Bo remarked. Lauren shrugged, "It's for my own safety," she said, though her tone was joking, her statement was true. Bo laughed, "Fine. What do I have to do?" Lauren pulled a stool up the exam table, and sat on the stool. She took out a small, black, plastic object that Bo didn't recognize. Bo took her place on the exam table, "What is that?"
"This," she answered, holding it up, "will emit a small shock. It's a mini-taser, but the damage isn't substantial. It'll be enough to make you snap out of it," Lauren finished, then pressing a red button and a spark flew. Bo stared at the thing and then at Lauren, "You should have told me. I would've brought my own," she joked with an uneasy smile. Lauren gave her a sympathetic look, "I'm sorry. I'll only use it when it's necessary," she promised. Bo nodded, "It beats handcuffs," she replied.
"Okay, so you actually have to take a little. Then stop yourself," Lauren explained, standing to step closer to Bo. The succubus took a deep breath and whispered, "You do realize this is almost like me about to have an orgasm but then you stop just at the brink to torture me." She didn't have to feel Lauren's aura to know that Lauren was flustered. "Bo," Lauren warned, "you're not making this easier for yourself." Bo shrugged and then pulled Lauren closer to her, "It's already torture as it is." The succubus hesitantly leaned in to kiss the blonde, whose hands were on Bo's legs.
Their lips grazed each other and Bo could feel her hunger rising, craving. The succubus' eyes began to glow and the craving grew stronger. A part of her was elated and the cautious part of her was slowly melting away, like ice. She started to take, a blue stream coming from Lauren. Bo let out a breathy sigh as she finally got to taste the doctor again. She continued to take and Lauren knew she would have to stop her soon. Her mind was cloudy but she was determined to help the succubus. Her finger on the red button, pressed on Bo's leg. The blonde pulled a centimeter away to warn Bo, but the other woman only closed the distance again.
"Bo," Lauren breathed. The succubus didn't seem to hear. Lauren made sure the taser wasn't touching Bo when she pressed the button as a warning. There was a small resolve still in Bo, but not enough to make her stop. Just enough to make her aware that she should stop. She heard the taser and the resolve grew a hair, but still not enough. "Bo, I'll have to-"
Lauren felt heat pool between her legs and she knew that Bo sent a pulse of energy through her. This was going to be harder than she thought. Lauren could feel herself get weaker and finally, she pressed the taser to Bo's skin and pushed the button.
"Ow!" Bo shouted, effectively separating the kiss. She rubbed her leg where she was tased, "Fuck that hurt," she whispered. Lauren took a breath. She was standing, which was good. "Sorry, I tried warning you," the blonde remarked sheepishly. Bo sighed, her eyes weren't glowing but they were dark. "You used your energy," Lauren stated, as if it were a big no-no. Bo swallowed and looked down, "Sorry."
"That's not fair," Lauren replied. Bo's dark eyes looked back into Lauren's, "Why?" she whispered huskily. Lauren clenched her teeth together, "B-Because-" Bo's lips were trailing down the doctor's neck, "Because?" she asked, interrupting Lauren. The doctor took a step back to cool down, "Because that's cheating," she replied.
"How do you feel?" Lauren asked. Bo smiled, "Better," she replied. The blonde waited for something more, but Bo didn't clarify. "It's not stronger?" she asked. The succubus shook her head, "I feel better. The hunger... is a little less. Still strong, I still want to make you writhe and scream but it's more manageable now." Lauren nodded, trying to pretend she only heard the bit where it was more manageable. Bo suppressed a chuckle as she felt Lauren's aura burn brighter.
"How are you feeling?" Bo asked, not knowing if Lauren was trying to act strong. She was doing a good job. Lauren sighed, "I feel... weaker. But that's to be expected. I stopped you before you took too much, so I'll be fine." Bo nodded. She was thrilled that they were making at least a little progress. "Great, now we'll just need the taser every time I come over for dinner and you talk hot science with me then jump my bones," Bo said with a smile, recalling that night. Lauren blushed a little and nodded, "Exactly."
