Tamsin charged along the sandy beach, the salt spray on her face and the wind whipping through her hair. The large white horse ran along the surf, kicking up sand and water in it's wake. There was a figure, standing at the base of the cliffs, dressed in a long white robe. She smiled and urged the horse faster. As she neared the fuzzy outline of the figure in the white robe, she noticed the horse she was riding gradually turning black. Inky tendrils of hair pushed out of his body taking over his colouring although he remained unconcerned by it and happily galloped on. She was about to reveal the identity of the figure when she heard a bloodcurdling scream, looking around for the source, she heard another cry. Slowly the beach disappeared.

Tamsin opened her eyes, dazed for a second as to where she was, surprised not to find herself by the ocean.

Bo was sitting up in bed looking confused. "Did you hear.."

There was another scream followed by a pained cry of Tamsin's name.

"Kenzi!" Tamsin cried out. She went to grab her service weapon from the table next to the bed when she realised that she was in Bo's room. She groped under the pillow and pulled out Bo's dagger instead. Charging out of the room, quickly followed by Bo she eschewed the stairs and vaulted off the balcony to the floor below before leaping over the couch and bursting into Kenzi's room.

"Kenzi!" She looked around the room for the cause of the scream and saw nothing. She looked at Kenzi sitting in the middle of the bed, wide eyed and terrified, her sweat dampened hair plastered to her scalp. "Kenzi! Kenz what happened? Are you OK?"

Lauren had run out of her room followed by Evony when she heard the second scream, Lauren had been about to call for Tamsin before she herself ran in unarmed when the door to Bo's bedroom shot open. Expecting to see the Succubus she was awed to see Tamsin come flying out with death in her eyes, leaping into the air with her dagger raised. Before she could say a word, Tamsin had charged past her almost taking the door off of its hinges.

"It was Massimo." Kenzi squeaked.

Bo reached the bedroom and ran in. "He was here?" She asked looking around, the window was closed and significantly high in the air, the only way in was through the door they were standing at. "Where is he Kenz?"

"Not here. I guess I was dreaming. I saw him and he looked so real, like that was the realist of real dreams I have ever had. He had a young girl, she was screaming and he looked like he was trying to calm her down, he stabbed her with this corkscrew looking thing and she was screaming, but I couldn't hear her. Then he changed into some kind of flame, and he kept changing into all these other things and as he did, the girl on the floor changed into a different person, then he changed into Hale and he made that face, like he was going to Siren blast me and I saw Hale laying there where the body was and.. and.. I just, I saw him laying there." She broke down into tears as Tamsin wrapped her arms around her, Bo sat down on the other side and cuddled her as well.

Lauren stood at the door staring at the ceiling. Something Kenzi had said was niggling away at her subconscious and she couldn't place what it was. She felt a hand on her arm and turned to see Evony looking at her. "Let's get some water or something, give them a minute." She nodded and followed her lover to the kitchen. As Evony wandered around switching on the kettle and setting out tea she was distracted from her curiosity at the bizarre sight. "You know how to make tea?"

"I've seen people do it, it doesn't look too difficult." She smiled. "What's bothering you? I know that look."

Lauren cocked her head in question.

"The look that you get when you're about to pick up the end of a very long ball of knotted string that you think you can unravel. What are you thinking?"

"Kenzi's dream seemed very realistic. Almost prophetic don't you think?"

"Is there any reason she would be having prophetic dreams?"

Lauren shook her head. "I don't know, but I mean she's carrying a Fae's child and I remember Bo telling me that several of Kenzi's relatives were psychic."

Evony looked sceptical. "Really?"

"No I'm serious, Bo met one of them and said she was scarily accurate. Maybe being pregnant is waking a latent tendency in her. The whole Santiago clan is about volume when you think about it. Val can snatch voices, Hale had the whistle, Kenzi told me his grandmother used to be able to amplify peoples emotions, used to use it to liven up parties apparently." She smiled.

"Sounds like a hoot." Evony drawled.

"It could just be a nightmare, but it seemed so specific."

Evony picked up the tray with the cups on and walked toward Kenzi's room. "My experience with you Dr Lewis, is that you are very rarely wrong."

"Can we come in?" Lauren asked poking her head around the door. Kenzi looked much better, sitting normally between Bo and Tamsin.

Evony followed afterwards with the tea. "I was never very good at comforting people, so I thought perhaps if I made tea it would distract you." She handed a cup to Kenzi who looked at her with her mouth hanging open.

"I'm still asleep aren't I?"

"Talking of. Kenzi I'm sure you really don't want to relive it, but, would you mind telling me what else you might have seen?"

Kenzi looked at her suspiciously. "Why?" She dragged the one word out.

"Honestly I'm not sure, but something about you dreaming this and what you said is setting my spidey senses off." She grinned at the Russian knowing her love for the webbed cartoon character.

"Well we cant ignore that Doc but I don't think there's much else to say. Except he had these flowers all over the place, like it was a dream right so I guess it didn't have to make sense, like when you have a dream that you're eating a giant steak and you look down and you're actually eating like a phone book or something and that doesn't seem weird you know?" She looked around at several faces that said, no, they really didn't.

"Anyway, it was like that. Just with flowers all over the place."

"What kind of flowers?" Lauren asked.

"Dude, no idea, I know roses and chrysanthemums and I get them confused. Why is this important?"

Lauren shrugged. "Maybe it's not, but it bothered me." She smiled.

"I hear you, it bothered me as well." She shuddered and sipped her tea. "This isn't bad actually. I'm sorry I woke everyone up. I'm good now, you all should get some sleep." She put her cup down and yawned.

Bo picked up the tray and took it out to the kitchen as Lauren and Evony bid them all goodnight.

"So I dragged you out of Bo's bed huh? You probably wanna get back there and boy! Who would blame you?" Kenzi prattled on nervously.

Tamsin looked at her strangely then it clicked. "You would think so, but honestly, that bed is kinda uncomfortable." She smiled.

Kenzi rolled her eyes. "Well I hate to think of you going without sleep being as you got to get up all early and be an adult. I suppose I could let you crash here. Just for tonight mind." She told her seriously.

Tamsin chuckled and climbed under the covers. "Thanks Kenz, you're a real star."

"Oh twinkle twinkle darling, just doing my civic duty."

Bo had walked in at the end of their conversation, smiling as Tamsin wrapped Kenzi in her arms.

"BoBo, Tamsin said you had giant rodents hiding under your bed, you should probably stay here where it's safer."

"That's very kind of you Kenz." She smiled and got in the other side and felt Kenzi curl up next to her.

Kenzi finally calmed down enough that she felt she could sleep again. There were definitely benefits to having Fae besties that could act as security blankets now and then. She started giggling as she took in her position.

"What's so funny shorty?" Tamsin mumbled by her ear.

"I really need to get me some gay lady friends, I could dine out for weeks on this."

*/*/*/

"I'm getting old." Tamsin mumbled as she waited for the coffee to finish. She yawned, cracking her jaw. Kenzi had fallen asleep almost immediately, shortly followed by Bo. Tamsin however stayed awake until the very early hours when the sun had begun to rise, almost as though the daylight provided a level of protection to Kenzi's nightmares. She hadn't missed Lauren's odd questions, God only knows what the Doc was thinking. Sadly, she had a really annoying habit of being right. Tamsin couldn't wait to hear what kind of shit storm was coming next.

She sighed and grabbed the coffee as Bo walked into the kitchen and Kenzi headed for the couch, her blankets still with her. She watched her curl up on the couch, wrapped in the nest of covers, switching on the TV for the morning news.

The buzzer broke the silence. Bo checked her watch. "Dyson picking you up?"

Tamsin shrugged. "Not to my knowledge. Maybe he caught an early call." She put the coffee cup in the sink listening with half an ear as Kenzi answered the door phone.

"Delivery! You guys expecting something?" Kenzi yelled over as she dropped down on the couch.

Bo shook her head and looked at Tamsin. "You?"

Tamsin scrunched her face up and casually walked toward the elevator door. "Not that I can think of." She deftly flicked her jacket back exposing her weapon, with a practised thumb, she flicked the holster open. The door opened and a familiar brown UPS uniform stood there with a box on the floor. Almost as if in slow motion, his coat blew open and Tamsin saw the bulge by his arm. She caught a glimpse of metal and saw him reach for it.

Within a millisecond she had drawn her weapon and held it with deadly purpose, her arm never wavering. "If you so much as blink right now, I will lobotomize you. Who sent you?"

The delivery agent took Tamsin at her word and was trying very hard not to blink. He tried to swallow his fear down and managed to stutter out. "...assimo"

Tamsin bore down on him. "Massimo? The druid sent you?" She had her gun almost in the terrified drivers mouth.

"Ttttassimo, the er, the coffee wizards?"

She looked at him, then at the box, then at the scanner under his arm that she thought was a gun, and the reality crashed over her. "Shit." She twirled her gun around elegantly before slipping it back to the holster.

"I can take it back, I mean if it's the wrong colour or something."

"Shit. Bo, calm him down. Kenzi..." She spoke slowly, trying to reign in her annoyance. "Your coffee machine for the baby is here." She shot a level 12 glare at the little Russian.

"Holy High Noon Batman. You totes gotta show me how to do that." Kenzi said in awe.

Tamsin watched Bo calming the driver down so that he was no longer shaking. Now he just looked at the Succubus like all his dreams had come true. "Yeah I'll give a pregnant woman my loaded gun. Take the damn machine into the kitchen before it kills us all."

Kenzi scooted off the couch and ran into the kitchen to start enjoying her new purchase.

Tamsin walked up to Bo and put her arms around her from behind. Figuring there was no time like the present. She pulled Bo's face around gently and kissed her. She kept the drooling UPS man in her side vision. Pulling away from Bo's lips, she moved to her ear. "Feed from him."

Bo tilted her head in confusion.

"Do it. Not enough to drain him, just a small feed."

She held onto Bo's waist, wanting to keep the connection as Bo's Succubus nature took over and with a flash of blue she pulled him to her by his shirt and pressed her lips to the smitten man, slowly drawing his essence from him. When she finished, she leaned back into Tamsin. When he looked up at the blonde, she darkened her eyes. "Consider that your tip. Now forget everything that happened here and leave."

The baffled man walked back to the elevator, pressing the button for the bottom floor, watching curiously as the beautiful woman smirked at him from within the arms of the strange blonde. The beginnings of a headache already starting behind his eyes.

Tamsin let out a breath when the doors finally closed. "Please God let that be the worst fucking thing that happens to me today." She dropped her head back and groaned. "And now I'm late. And horny. Awesome. Are you going out today?"

Bo chuckled as she turned around and kissed Tamsin's cheek. "Well if you have a spare two minutes, I can probably fix the second problem."

"Everyone's a comedian. That was kinda hot." She pressed her lips to Bo's neck. "Damn but you're gorgeous."

Bo laughed and pushed her away. "Go catch bad guys. I'm gonna go play with our new coffee machine." She winked. "I'll text you later if we go out."

Tamsin nodded and was about to leave when Kenzi came running up. "One Kenzi Kappachino to go my little Nordic warrior." She beamed.

Tamsin grabbed the cup, growled at her and left the apartment. As the doors closed behind her she heard Kenzi screaming.

"Oh My God BoBo, did you see what she did with her gun? I thought she was about to start pulling the hammer back with her hand and pew pew pew."

Tamsin shook her head before banging it against the side of the elevator car.

*/*/*/

"You look particularly chipper TamTam." Dyson mocked her as she walked in.

"Bite me."

"And she comes out swinging!" He laughed at her. "What crawled up your ass and died?"

Tamsin glared at him one last time before huffing out a laugh. "If I told you what happened to me this morning, I would have to kill you. Seriously, that's too much shame for one person to carry alone."

"Well we have a case, time to head out. You can tell me on the way and look for places to bury my corpse if you like." He grinned at her.

"Eh, what the hell, you're gonna get a kick out of this, somebody should enjoy it." She slapped his shoulder and walked out of the precinct. "So Kenzi ordered a coffee machine online..."

30 minutes out, they pulled up to the park, the media and various onlookers were there. Several police vehicles were in view and a barricade was gradually being erected around the entrance to keep people from going in.

"What's with all the dogs? And why are they all agitated?" Tamsin looked around. "Is it you? Are you freaking them out?" She laughed.

"Not me. Could be nothing. This is usually the main entrance for the dog walkers at this time."

"So why are we here?"

"Young girl, 23, no record. Initial report, she was killed with an antler."

"So like Rudolph killed her? She wouldn't let him join in any reindeer games? Sounds like she was shanked. So I ask again, why are we here."

Dyson smirked at her humour. "As I said, maybe nothing, but who shanks people in the park? I mean an antler, c'mon. Be easier to use a kitchen knife than sit there carving horns into a point. Powers that be are worried that it's in our playground, so here we are, about to go play." Dyson gestured for her to lead the way.

*/*/*/

Bo and Kenzi had made about 38 cups of coffee by the time Lauren turned up in the kitchen. "Oh dear God tell me she didn't drink all of those?" She pleaded with Bo.

"Can you imagine? God she would be like that squirrel, bouncing off the walls. No, she wanted to try all the different flavour packs out. Grab one while they're still warm, pretty sure she's got through all the samples they sent."

Lauren grabbed one, took a sip and picked up a second for Evony. "Are we seeing trick today?"

"Hadn't planned to, did you want to?" Bo asked.

Lauren stared at the ceiling. "You know, I do. I don't know what it was, but whatever Kenzi said last night is still bothering me. I mean apart from the fact that it was a horrible thing to see, nightmare or otherwise."

"Alright, we need a few things for the apartment..."

"Coffee packets!" Kenzi interrupted.

"Like coffee packets apparently, so let's go out later, stop for lunch somewhere, then head to the Dal, maybe Trick can put your mind at rest." Bo smiled at her.

"OK, sounds good. Are you and Kenzi not working on anything at the moment?" Lauren asked.

Bo shook her head. "I promised Tamsin I wouldn't. Too dangerous with Massimo and the various bounties flying around."

Lauren chuckled. "Now that doesn't sound like you."

"Normally you'd be right, but Tamsin told me that it wasn't just me and Kenzi in danger, we had the baby to consider. Honestly if you ask me, she's getting a lot of mileage out of Kenzi's pregnancy." Bo laughed.

"Between you and I, I cant wait to see how she behaves when you have a kid running around here."

Bo froze.

"What? What did I say? Bo?"

"I never thought of it like that. We're gonna have a kid running around here? Oh my God Lauren, what the hell do we know about raising kids?"

Lauren didn't know whether to laugh or panic at Bo's epiphany. "Maybe you should sit down. Here.." She passed a cup over. "Have some coffee."

"What's wrong with the super snatch?" Evony drawled as she walked in.

"She just figured out that in a few months there will be a living crawling human type creature wandering around in her new love nest." Kenzi laughed from over by the coffee machine. "C'mon Boobarella, go take a bath, chillax."

"Good idea, you guys want to head out at 12?" Bo asked looking around. At the various nods, she took her coffee and headed to Tamsin's room, determined to try out her giant Jacuzzi tub.

"I'm gonna take a shower as well, try and wake up a bit more." Lauren smiled as she headed out kissing Evony briefly as she left.

Kenzi watched Lauren and Evony interacting. The dark Fae leader was so different to how she had envisaged her before in their many meetings. She wondered what it was that Lauren had seen to make her look deep enough to get involved. She was so lost in her pondering that she didn't notice she had been staring at Evony for a few minutes.

"You keep staring like that and I'm going to start worrying about wrinkles." She smirked as Kenzi came back to earth.

"Sorry, no, I was just, I wanted to ask you something, well, several somethings really, but it's kinda hard to get past the fact that you're the leader of this giant evil corporation of mystical creatures."

"Hmm, well, leader in name only currently. So woman to woman. What did you want to know?" She smiled, almost sweetly Kenzi thought.

*/*/*/

Bo popped a CD in the machine and switched it on. She walked back to the giant tub and sunk into the water. She set the jets running and almost purred as they massaged her body from all angles. After a couple of minutes she grabbed her phone from the stool next to the tub and sent a text to Tamsin.

We heading out at noon 2 c Trick. Lauren wants to ask about nightmares.-B

She settled back against the side, humming along mostly in tune with the song playing. Less than a minute passed before her phone buzzed to let her know she had a reply.

Make sure he knows u coming.-T

Bo played with the phone for a few minutes before smiling to herself and starting to type.

Wish you were here. Am so wet right now. -B

She smiled to herself, imaging Tamsin getting flustered in the middle of whatever she was doing. Almost immediately the phone buzzed again.

R u sexting me? Propositioning police officer punishable offence you know? -T

Bo giggled to herself as she quickly typed in another message.

R u saying you want to punish me Detective? -B

It's not much of a punishment if you want it you know -T

Tell me what you're wearing? -B

Lol, you gonna have to do better than that babe, am currently up to armpits in dirt, blood and dog shit -T

Bo read the message and laughed. "Such a charmer. Alright TamTam, let's see how you deal with this." She moved around until one of the jets hit her at the right angle, she arched her back and gasped in pleasure, snapping a photo as she did.

*/*/*/

Tamsin grinned as she typed her message out. Tempting as it was to encourage Bo, the rain had been coming down for a while, she was wet, tired and agitated. The blood work from the victim didn't make sense. The blood work said human, Dyson's nose was adamant that she was a Fae, a fire sprite. They were waiting out here until a confirmation from either the light or the dark came back that she was known to either side. She was about to get up from looking at some strange markings on the girls skin when her phone buzzed again. She looked at the screen and tapped to open the image.

"Fuck me running!" She put her arm out to steady herself on a nearby tree, but slipped on the wet bark and fell backwards, rolling a good 10 feet downhill into a pile of leaves. She lay there looking at her lovers face, contorted in passion, her breasts just peeking above the huge amount of bubbles she had in the bath with her. "Oh this is war Succubus." She put her phone away and jogged back to the body. Her scowl was firmly in place, daring anyone to say anything or God forbid laugh. "Dyson, lemme borrow your phone a sec."

He looked at her strangely, not daring to ask what she was doing coming back up the hill. He unlocked his phone and handed it over. Tamsin quickly typed out a message and hit send.

*/*/*/

Bo decided to stay where she was, the jet of water was hitting her in just the right place to relax her completely. Wishing that Tamsin was here right now and vowing to get the blonde in the tub at the earliest opportunity. She waited for the tell tale buzzing to let her know what Tamsin thought of her selfie. She opened the screen and nearly dropped her phone in the water.

Nice shot. Did you mean to send that to me? -D

"Fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck." She frantically typed out a message to Tamsin, double checking that she had the right number. She pressed send and waited with her breath held for Tamsin to respond. Within seconds her phone buzzed.

Yeah I borrowed Dyson's phone to send that. Not nice to tease the horny cop ;) -T

Bo read the message and didn't know whether to laugh, cry or hunt Tamsin down and beat the ever living shit out of her. In the end she had to admit that Tamsin had played her well. And that kind of challenge simply wouldn't stand.

*/*/*/

"You're actually kinda nice." Kenzi exclaimed.

"Thank you." Evony frowned in confusion.

"Lauren clearly adores you." Kenzi thought she saw the hint of a blush on the other woman's face. "So she must have seen something in you before you became all human like. But let's be honest, you've been a total bitch in every encounter we've had with you!" Kenzi threw her arms up as though this explained everything she was thinking.

Evony took a sip of her coffee and wondered how to answer and what she could safely say. Looking at the small goth, she remembered the girl blurting out that she would give up her wish for her. "I like you Kenzi. I really do. Above and beyond all of this, I think you're quite an incredible little human."

Kenzi gave a nervous laugh and flicked her hair back dramatically. "Well, really what's not to like. But dude, I didn't change, you could have just liked me before."

"But I didn't know you." Evony explained calmly.

"Because you didn't want to."

"And there's the crux. No. I didn't want to. If I had got to know you, I'm quite sure I would have adored you like so many others do. I'm certain I would have found Bo very appealing." She smirked and Kenzi laughed. "But I cant. The less people I care about, the easier it is to be me." She stood up and walked to the window. "Do you hear about these women in the human business world, and how they have to struggle and work at least 3 times as hard as their male counterparts?"

Kenzi just nodded.

"Now imagine being a woman in a world like the Fae. In many ways, we're far more enlightened that the humans. Race, colour, sexuality, polygamy, these are all perfectly accepted and indeed normal. You'll never hear of a Fae father disowning his son because he has a black girlfriend, or a boyfriend. But one thing we share with you is a preconception of gender. Women are not as strong as men."

"Yeah well that's bullshit." Kenzi slapped the table.

"Now imagine, that in my world, with the kind of power we have. Life and death, money, position, power over vast swathes of land and business. Our own little Kingdom. Imagine what kind of man would want to wield that ultimate position. Now imagine what a woman would have to do in order to keep that man from thinking she was too weak to rule."

"Wow. When you put it like that. But I mean look at you, you're smart, funny, gorgeous, it's not like you would be working at Wall-mart, you'd have a great life I'm sure. Why do you want that kind of power?" Kenzi looked at her curiously.

"We have elder councils, you probably heard about them. They're a mix of representatives from both sides that have the power to step in and veto either side. I mean obviously, from the dark, they're all chosen from people that I have certain sway with, the same for the light, but they're guardians of the Fae in a manner, they keep the ultimate peace. I put them in power."

Kenzi's jaw dropped.

"Surprised you huh kiddo? Why would a megalomaniac bitch like me put in position something that could curtail my powers?" She took a deep breath. "As evil as I am, and despite all the things I have done and I have done things that would keep normal people awake at night, despite all this, there are worse choices Kenzi. I do what I do, to keep my position, so those worse choices can not take it away. The power that I have, had, was immense. That's a beacon to all that is corrupt. If someone is thought to be on my bad side, all those corrupt little sharks start swimming around to see if I'm weak enough to take a bite of. So I bare my teeth and bite something first."

"You tried to kill Hale at that shindig."

Evony laughed. "I would never have tried to kill Hale, he was actually the first Ash that wasn't corrupt."

"You put that bug thing in his drink!" Kenzi pointed at her.

"Posturing, I put a traceable poison in his drink, traceable by scent, knowing his bodyguard for the evening was a wolf. There was no way he would have been allowed to drink it, but word gets around, The Morrigan tried to poison The Ash. It's good politics. Hale knew that."

"You know that's kinda fucked up right?" Kenzi shook her head.

"Politics is all kinds of fucked up. Anything else you wanted to know, seeing as we're all sharing here?"

Kenzi inhaled sharply, thinking to herself it was now or never. "Will you tell me about Massimo?" She whispered.

Evony's posture became rigid. She stared out of the window at the view overlooking the park. "Getting pregnant was a mistake. I couldn't be seen to have a weakness that could be exploited. When we found out Massimo was human, he automatically had a giant target on his back. I had him raised far away from me. He wanted for nothing, love, possessions, education but I always kept my distance, there was something, something obvious about Massimo that became apparent as he grew up." She looked at Kenzi, sure she had her attention before she continued. "Massimo was going to be one of the sharks circling thinking that a woman was too weak to rule. He did things, things he had no business doing, things he should not have wanted to do and he did them knowing he was protected. There was one incident, that pushed things too far, it nearly led to my downfall and an all out war between the two sides. I managed to save his life, but he was banished from our world." She poured herself a glass of water, taking even sips as though calming herself down. "He became The Druid and people sought him out. While he was technically still banished, people knew he was my son and it afforded him a certain protection and position. And let's be honest, no one really that a person might be operating beyond the laws when that person has something they want. I revoked my protection when he killed Hale. I couldn't protect him from that, neither did I want to."

"You know Tamsin would have killed him anyway?" Kenzi asked.

Evony nodded. "And she would have been executed for it. And that my little human friend, would have been a terrible waste."

Kenzi had tears running down her face. She swallowed her emotions down. "Thank you for lifting his protection."

Evony was surprised to find her eyes wet. "I'm sorry he killed your lover."

Kenzi choked out a laugh and wiped her eyes. "You know it's customary at this point to hug it out right?"

Evony smirked at her. "Well, when in human form and all that." She met Kenzi halfway and hugged her.

Lauren and Bo stood outside the kitchen with joint expressions of shock on their faces as The Morrigan hugged Kenzi.

"We're so gonna die aren't we?" Bo asked Lauren.

Lauren scratched the side of her head wondering whether Bo had a point.

*/*/*/

Lauren looked to the pool table where Bo, Kenzi and Evony were playing pool. The Dal was fairly empty at this time. They had left later than expected, stopped for lunch, picked up an enormous amount of coffee packets for Kenzi's new machine before heading over to Tricks place. She was nursing her drink waiting for Trick to come back upstairs.

"Sorry about that, I wanted to check on something, but it wasn't helpful. Why do you think it was prophetic? I know some of Kenzi's extended family are supposedly gifted, but Kenzi has never really shown any sign of it. Why now?"

Lauren looked back to Kenzi. "I think the baby is amplifying things."

"You don't think it was just a nightmare? Hales death is still fresh in her mind."

"If she just saw Hale, I probably would, but she didn't. She saw a number of other people, all shapes and sizes, she also mentioned flowers, apparently they were everywhere, like she was supposed to know what they were for. She doesn't even know what kind of flowers they were. I'm sorry, I'm probably grasping as straws. It's probably boredom, I cant remember the last time I went this long without doing something. Maybe I should get a crossword book." She laughed nervously.

"At least let's figure out what kind of flower it was, they all have different meanings, maybe we can gather something from that. Have Kenzi take a look at this, see if she can pick out what they were." Trick pushed a book toward Lauren.

Lauren lifted the large tome up and walked over to the others by the pool table. "Kenzi, come take a look at these, I want you to see if you can spot the flowers you saw last night."

Kenzi handed her cue to Evony and bounced over. "Just so you know, I hate homework. K, gimme." She dropped down at the table and started looking threw the pages. "Wow, some of these images are gorgeous. You didn't have any normal books?"

"These are all mystical flowers, or rather flowers that are used in Fae magic, Trick thinks it will be easier to find it in here. Plus these have descriptions on what they mean and what they do in relation to the Fae." Lauren answered her.

"Look at this one, it's beautiful. Oh. Apparently you put one under the tongue of a corpse in order to keep it fresh. Nice. I think this is gonna give me more nightmares Doc." Kenzi settled in and started looking for the one that was all over her dream last night.

Lauren walked to Bo and Evony and interrupted. "Mind if I cut in?" She smiled when Bo handed over her cue and immediately pulled out her phone to start texting.

"Ah young love." Lauren rolled her eyes.

"You seem to be taking this rather well." Evony said as she lined up her shot.

"What's that saying? The ship has sailed? I'm a one woman girl, I could never deal with Bo having to feed, that isn't going to change. I have no idea how Tamsin is going to deal with it. I doubt she's going to be agreeable to Bo sleeping with someone else. I'm happy." She looked at Evony and smiled. "I'm happy where I am right now."

Evony smiled back at her. "Prepare yourself to be hustled Dr Lewis." She hit the ball cleanly and smirked when it dropped into the side pocket.

*/*/*/

Tamsin was sitting in the car drying off. Dyson had the light complex on the phone. It seems that the nose won over the science and Dyson was right, the girl was a fire sprite. She was light Fae, so they would be taking the body back to the light complex. As soon as Dyson was done with bureaucracy. Her phone buzzed again. She smiled before she read it. Bo had bombarded her with sexy messages all afternoon in payback for the stunt she pulled with Dyson's phone. Part of Tamsin was enjoying it immensely, part of her was out of her mind with lust and couldn't wait to get out of here. She made a mental note to get the contractors booked to soundproof the bedrooms ASAP. She read through her latest message and wanted to slide out of the door.

Ur killing me here Bo – T

Poor baby. Beg my forgiveness for the crap you pulled earlier and I'll stop. - B

Keep it up, paybacks are a bitch. And so am I ;) - T

She looked up as Dyson got in the car. "K, we have her body, she's en route to the light complex now. We can meet them there and get preliminaries done. I hope this Massimo shit is sorted soon, I want Lauren back on site."

"Pretty sure Lauren is going crazy being out of the loop as well. Evony, Kenzi and Bo are pretty shallow when it comes to entertainment. Gossip mags and reality TV, gotta feel bad for the Doc." Tamsin laughed as they pulled away.

"You think it's odd that she registered as human on the blood spec? I mean, I know it's odd, but you think this has anything to do with The Druid?" Dyson pondered out loud.

"Is it bad that I hope it is. Dudes vanished, no one knows where he is, no ones heard from him. At least this would be something to go on."

Dyson grunted in agreement as they traversed the traffic. Tamsin spotted something on the dashboard. "Is that a camera?"

Dyson looked to where she was pointing. "Yeah, all the unmarked are being kitted out with them now. You wanna get one in your truck?" He teased her.

"Hmm, no, but I had a thought." She drifted off.

"That never ends well."

"Bite me."

Dyson laughed and pulled away at the lights.

Tamsin stood outside her locker in the precinct. There was a chipped mirror facing her and she couldn't decided if she was going to talk herself up or talk herself out of what she had planned. She took one last look at the uniform and made a decision. "Fuck it. You wanna win big, you gotta go all out." She grabbed the uniform and started to undress.

She straightened up the colour and resisted the urge to scratch in the heavily starched material. She checked herself out in the mirror, giving herself the once over she smirked at her reflection and headed out. As she walked through the lower areas where the beat cops were, she hoped and prayed that she didn't run into Dyson. She knew he was upstairs finishing some reports off and waiting for news from the light compound, but he had friends down here, if he got bored at the wrong time, Tamsin would have a shit load of explaining to do. She ignored the various looks she got, her ego didn't need to hear the inhaled breaths and the various things dropping that told her she looked damn good. Walking up to the car checkout she requested a marked car from the officer on duty. When nothing immediately happened she snapped her fingers in front of his face.

"Dude, pay attention. Car. Please." She added as an afterthought.

"Sure, um, Detective, but why are you.."

She rolled her eyes and interrupted him. "Can you believe undercover? And running late, so if you wouldn't mind?"

He handed her the keys and she signed off for the vehicle. As she walked toward it, she remembered the whole point of this. "This has the camera on board yeah?"

The desk officer nodded, seemingly unable to find any more words tonight.

She pulled up out of sight on the main road and pulled out her phone. When the message was sent, she started to dismantle the camera from the main system. "Kenzi would have a heart attack if she knew what I was using her lessons for." She chuckled to herself.

Bo was about to send the latest torment when her phone buzzed.

You guys still at the Dal? -T

Y where are u? -B

Need to see Trick. Can you come pick me up, am at home. -T

Sure. Where's the truck? -B

Really long story. Can you get here quickly? -T

K leaving now. You OK? -B

Just put your foot down :) -T

Bo didn't want to panic, it wasn't like Tamsin didn't usually speak in 2 word sentences. The truck probably broke down and she was too embarrassed to say anything. Just to be sure. Bo put her glass down and yelled her goodbyes to everyone and said she would be back with Tamsin, shortly. She hurried out to the Camaro and hurried back to the apartment.

She was driving off the highway ramp nearest to home, the road was always dark and rarely used so she put her foot down to make some time up from the traffic. As she crossed the 75kmh mark she saw the red lights flashing in the rear view mirror followed by a couple of whoops from the siren.

"Shit. I do not have time for this. She waited for the traffic cop to get out of the car and walk over. Tilting the rear view back so she could check her hair and makeup, she moved it slightly to get a look at the officer she was about to charm out of a citation. "Hmm, could be worse." She checked out the trim figure with her back facing Bo as she adjusted her cap. When she saw her turn around and walk toward her, she quickly flipped the mirror back in place, squinting as the flashing red lights caught her eyes. "Jeez, turn the sirens off bitch, what is this, 100 most wanted? Fucking Nazi." She grumbled to herself waiting for the officer who was taking her sweet time coming over. She rolled the window down, ready to get out of here when a familiar voice spoke in the window.

"Now where are you going in such a hurry Miss?"

Bo spat out a nervous laugh. "Tamsin? What the.."

She was interrupted. "Licence and registration please."

Bo was aroused, confused, concerned and mostly aroused. She fumbled in the glove compartment before bringing out the items she needed. She handed them over and waited for Tamsin to give her some idea of what was going on. "Is there a problem Officer?"

Tamsin handed the items back. "Ms Dennis, I'm gonna need you to step out of the vehicle please." She moved back form the door giving Bo the room to get out.

Bo took longer than usual to get out as she found her legs were shaking, though she had no idea why. She noticed the name tag on Tamsin's vest, well that's one question answered I guess. "Officer Raske? Is there a problem here?"

"That depends, can you tell me why you thought it was OK for you to drive down here at more than 25kmh over the legal limit?"

Bo smiled at her, unable to stop her hormones kicking in at the sight of Tamsin in a tight blue vest, the cargo pants and that damn hat that Bo was sure wasn't supposed to be worn cocked at an angle like that. Before she had a chance to respond, Tamsin was talking again.

"I guess you think the rules don't apply to you huh? Are you also aware that we have a complaint registered against you for interfering with an ongoing investigation? Apparently you have been sending a number of distracting messages to the officers preventing them from completing their assignments, do you have any thing you would like to say about that?" Tamsin walked to the back of the vehicle away from the main road. "I'm going to need you to empty your pockets out please Miss." She stood there, legs apart, arms crossed over her chest in full authoritarian mode fully expecting Bo to follow her instructions.

Bo raised an eyebrow. Oh hell no, time to bring Tamsin down off of her little power trip. She sauntered over, keeping Tamsin's eyes on her at all times. When she was within reach of the sexy blonde, she reached a hand out and held onto Tamsin's bare forearm. Pushing her charms out she smiled up at her. "Are you sure we cant make all this go away? I would be very grateful Officer Raske." She watched with amusement as Tamsin shut her eyes and took a deep breath, revving up the charms a little, she waited for Tamsin's compliance. Before she knew what had happened, there was a click of metal around her wrist and she felt herself spun around while the other wrist was bound as well.

"Your reputation proceeds you Ms Dennis. But it seems you're not as irresistible as you think. I asked you nicely, now I'm just gonna take a look myself." She held Bo's wrist with one hand facing her toward the car as she ran her hands through her pockets. "Do you have anything in here that I should know about?"

Bo knew that Tamsin would never hurt her, but she would be lying to herself if she didn't admit to being exhilarated at what the blonde was doing to her. Playing along for now she shook her head.

"I'm going to need you to spread your legs for me Ms Dennis."

Bo groaned, fuck if there wasn't something seriously hot every time Tamsin referred to her as Ms Dennis. She felt Tamsin running her hands over her body, spending just long enough in places to be arousing but not long enough to complain about it being inappropriate. When the hands ran down the outside of her legs, Bo was certain she was going to collapse. Tamsin was pressed obscenely close to her as she drew them back up the inside. "So tell me, what are we going to do about these charges of interfering with an ongoing investigation? The way I see it." She husked into Bo's ear. "We can do this one of two ways. I can either write you up and take this to the next level. Or..." She trailed off.

"What's the other option?" Bo spoke quietly.

"The other option is you get on your knees and make me forget all about it." Tamsin spoke directly into her ear, biting the lobe when she finished.

Bo was a wreck. She nodded quickly thinking Tamsin would take the cuffs off, what she didn't expect was Tamsin whirling her around and guiding her down to the floor, hidden from the road by the cruiser. She looked up as Tamsin smirked and undid her pants, pushing them down her thighs. "You have ten minutes to make me forget."

Bo was so aroused she didn't think to make her usual sarcastic remark about Tamsin's timing.

Tamsin pushed a button her watch. "Time starts now. Make it good." And she pulled Bo's face into her.

Bo went down on her for all she was worth, 2 minutes in she was surprised that Tamsin hadn't come yet. She looked up at the blonde who winked at her. "I've been working on my stamina. 8 minutes left."

Bo was ready to start begging to be let out of the cuffs. She was so turned on it was almost painful. Burying her face as deeply as she could given the restrictions she worked in earnest. She felt Tamsin's hands on the back of her head and the thrusting started. Not caring if she needed to breath, she just wanted Tamsin to come so she could take these damn cuffs off. Looking up at her lover, she watched as the ecstasy washed across her face. She pulled her head back and took a much needed breath. Tamsin helped her to her feet, when she had her steady, she took her hat off and dropped it on Bo's head while she did her pants up. "I take it someone with your history knows what a cavity search is?"

What ever Bo was about to say was lost as Tamsin kissed her deeply, moaning as she tasted herself on Bo's lips. She forced her tongue into Bo's mouth, dominating her through the kiss. When she pulled away, she spun Bo around and pushed her over the hood of the car. She yanked the leather pants down and without any warning, thrust her fingers into a very excited Succubus.

Bo cried out in pleasure as Tamsin started to fuck her. "You're lucky that not many people use this road, it's pretty clear for anyone driving past what's going on here."

Bo started moaning and chanting Tamsin's name.

"I don't think you have anything there we need to worry about." She pulled out and started to rub her fingers around Bo's clit. She brought her other hand around so both hands were playing with Bo's folds. "There's just one more place I need to check."

Bo coughed out a protestation. "I'm pretty sure I would know if there was anything there officer."

She heard Tamsin click her tongue. "You don't really expect me to take your word for that do you? You're a very bad girl after all aren't you?" Tamsin smiled at the animalistic groans coming from Bo's throat. "Nothing to say? Are you a bad girl?"

Bo nodded, desperately concentrating on getting off before Tamsin made good on her threat.

"And are you sorry for interfering with an ongoing investigation?"

"Yes, oh God, yes, I'm so sorry Tamsin, please."

"And what should we do with such a bad girl?" Tamsin was leaning over Bo's back, rubbing her in random patterns to make it hard for her to get her release. She whispered directly into Bo's ear. "Maybe I should put you over my knee. Right here, by the side of the road. How do you think that would look to anyone passing by Ms Dennis?"

That was all it took, Bo came hard and loudly.

When she finally stilled, Tamsin moved her hands away and pulled the leather pants back into place. She undid the cuffs, gently rubbing at the wrists that were marked from the metal. She turned Bo to face her, when she had her attention she took her hat back, put it on and smirked. "I hope this lesson sunk in and made you realise that there are always consequences for your actions. Next time I wont be so forgiving." She swaggered back to the cruiser, got in and without another look she drove away.

Bo managed to get herself into the drivers seat and took a minute to get her head around what just happened. Her phone buzzed on the seat next to her, it was a message from Tamsin.

Game, set, match Valkyrie. Meet me at Dal - T

There was a video attachment with the message. only_ 4. Bo pressed the play button, it was taken from the vantage point of the cruiser, there was Tamsin walking toward Bo's car. She scanned it forward a little to see herself, being roughly taken from behind like a pro by Tamsin in full cop gear. Bo shook her head and laughed. "Damn. I think I'm in love." She made sure the video was saved before driving back to the bar.
