AN: You are not obligated to read this story, with that said…Thank you all for the awesome reviews (good and bad). I have hit the one hundred review mark and that's great.

What's lurking down in the Basement Pt1

AU—Characters are not mines…this is my first attempt so be nice.

(Bo/ Lauren) Doccubus all the way

Rated M for language and sexual content, if you don't like reading about genitals swap then this is not a fanfic for you. Be warned Lauren will be different in this fic.

I don't own shit but the plot.

Enjoy

Being the granddaughter of the Blood King had its perks, Bo, Tamsin, and Kenzi had prepared for the worse when they landed back into the States. But to their shock, The Ash was killed, Dyson was nowhere to be found, and Trick was the stand in Ash. A lot of shit happened while they were gone. Bo was struggling to take it day by day, Kenzi and Tamsin stood at her side as she cried for days on ends. Lyric felt like her soul was ripped out of her body for attacking her Alpha…her sister in law…her best friend. She didn't know if she still had a home back in Africa, but one thing she did know, Tamsin was home to her and wherever Tamsin went…she followed. Pyre flew back to Africa without her, Lauren was going to be pissed but Lyric knew she needed to mend and heal the broken heart Lauren caused inside the crying Succubus. Lyric didn't know how to feel about the whole Dyson and Bo being his mate thing, she was angry yes…but she knew that Bo didn't know anything about the war that happened between them and the wolf…hell the Succubus wasn't even born when it occurred. But Lyric couldn't even look at the Succubus without seeing her sister chained to a wall or Lauren being forced to shift then forced to shift back to human by series of electrical shocks. Lyric didn't know what to do, but one thing she knew…Bo wasn't fairing too well. It's been a week since they left Africa and Lauren hasn't called or checked up on the Succubus at all. Limping up the stairs where Tamsin and Kenzi were, she was met with worry and sadness as she watched Kenzi rub the back of the comatose Succubus. It started around the third day, they all been cooped up in the crack shack not ready to show their faces just yet. Trick knew they were back, Bo wanted to talk to him but she suddenly fell ill. She tried to feed but it wasn't working, it was like her succubus just fell into a coma and couldn't wake up. Kenzi was going crazy with worry trying to figure out how the hell this happen to her succubus best friend.

"Still no change?" Lyric asks limping farther into the room, Tamsin walked over to her kissing her lips shaking her head no.

"Nothing" Kenzi hissed out angry as she softly brushed the slightly damped brown hair, her and Tamsin finished giving Bo a bath. Lyric could see that the brunette was breathing but barely, her chest rose and fell harshly…you could see that the woman was struggling a great deal to breathe.

"Still no answer?" Tamsin asks watching her lover's face morphed into a painful expression

"Nope, no one is picking up the phone for me. I think something is wrong" Lyric says sitting down at the edge of the bed.

"You guess that right! Something is seriously wrong when my BFF can't feed herself!" Kenzi yells angry, she didn't know why this was happening. The little spit fire wasn't scared easily…but this was terrifying her. Kenzi lost the track of times she found herself breaking down in sobs, watching her sister…her best friend lay there not responding to anyone or anything.

"It might be the mating pull" Lyric suggested as Tamsin frowned in confusion, Lyric was wracking her brain trying to figure out why the brunette wasn't responding to feeds. Lyric never had a mate before so she didn't know the extent the mating pull consists of.

"Huh?" Kenzi says pulling the covers over Bo tucking her in, Kenzi went into mommy mode quick when she witness the state her best friend was in. it was like taking care of a newborn baby, Bo wouldn't talk, she wouldn't' walk…she barely even acknowledge anyone was even in the room with her.

"The pull I feel from my Alpha is an emotion that connects us together as a pack, but the pull of a mate is hundred times stronger. I don't feel Lauren right now because I am too far away but I do feel a dull ache where it was, so just imagine how Bo is feeling away from Lauren and vice versa. The pain of being away from her mate is killing her Kenzi…we need to get them back together before she dies" Lyric says sadly feeling tears weld in her eyes for the Succubus. She didn't want the woman to die because her Alpha was being an asshole to the tenth degree. She was positive Lauren was going through the same thing, and that scared the panther to her core…if Lauren was in this state at home, there was no way to get them closer to each other.

"I don't want that bitch anywhere near my friend! I'm sorry but Lauren fucked up Lyric" Kenzi yells wiping her eyes, she never cried this much in forever…not even when her mother passed away.

"Kenzi I know you hate Lauren right now, but she is our only hope for saving Bo right now. When Bo gets better she can figure out what she wants to do but now…we need to get Lauren here now"

"And how will we do that if no one is answering the phone?" Tamsin says

"I can try to reach her through our link; I have done this once before when she was captured with my sister. It takes a lot of strength and nine out of ten it won't even work the first try but, with Bo hand in mines...it might make a difference"

"Wait hold up! Will you be hurt?" Tamsin asked worried watching her lover kneel down on the floor.

"Depends" She whispers folding her legs under her and putting her free hand on her knees, she looked up at Tamsin and smiled.

"Come and hold me" Tamsin didn't need to be ask twice, she sat behind the tall shifter and wrapped her arms around the woman waist.

"Tighter" Lyric whispers softly as she leaned backwards into Tamsin's arms, she felt Tamsin lips touch her neck tenderly.

"I'll be right back my love"

"Better be" Tamsin says watching her lover close her eyes and go limp in her arms.

Lauren was lost

She been stuck in her leopard form for the past couple of days due to the pain that surrounded her heart and seeped into her chest, the pain she felt was too much for her lion or her human self could tolerate. She knew she fucked up when she saw the plane disappear taking Bo away from her, the pain was instant making her ball into a fetus position…forcing her to shift into her leopard for healing. Ethan had cried every night since Bo left, complaining about an ache in his chest. I knew what he meant and I knew I had to correct this mess I made before his pain got to the point he couldn't handle. This pain was too much; it was like someone poured hot ass lava down her throat burning her heart from inside out. A mate's pull was harsh when apart; it could very well kill the participants if apart for too long. If she felt this way after a couple of days, she knew Bo wasn't fairing all too well.

"Lauren" Hearing someone call her; she turned her head letting her ears perk up at the sound of her name. Throttling over to her pack member, she laid her head on their lap as their fingers rubbed through her soft fur.

"You can't stay in this room in your leopard form forever, Ethan is crying all day…talking about his chest hurts, you need to find Bo and bring her back" Lauren whined loudly feeling the pain intensify at the mention of the Succubus.

"I know it hurts, I have lost a mate before and I know how it feels…you need to suck it up and shift back so you tend to your son Lauren…he needs you" the panther says, Lauren could feel her bone cracking slowly. It was excruciating because she haven't shift in four days, as her howls turned into screams she felt the dam break inside her and she continue to scream until she was human. Her pack sister held her as she felt all the suppressed pain her leopard kept away rush back at her at once.

"Let it out" Pyre whispers holding the shaking woman in her arms. Lauren embraced the pain fully and suddenly felt Lyric presents inside her. She knew Lyric was trying to contact her; it made her body run cold in fear. Lyric never use their Beta Alpha bond pull to contact her unless it was important.

"L…Lyri

"She not here Lau-

"N…No Lyric is trying to reach me through the bond…something is wrong Pyre" Lauren shot up to walk but fell to her knees.

"Take it easy, you haven't been in your human form for four days plus you're weak right now" Pyre explained, Lauren stayed on her knees and push all her pain and love through the bond to Lyric. She wanted Lyric to feel everything…she wanted Lyric to know how fucking sorry was for attacking her and Tamsin.

"I n...need to get to Bo now" the dull empty emotions she was feeling was Bo's, it felt lifeless and quiet.

"Of Course…let me get Ethan ready and we can take the plane at once"

'No…I can't risk him again, I will leave him here in your care Pyre"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes other than Lyric, you are the only person I fully trust Ethan care to" Lauren says feeling her strength come back, she stood and crack her back and rolled her neck.

"Okay…I will prep the plane for you" Pyre rushed out the room, Lauren quickly dressed and wobbled a little out into the hallway to her son's room. She could feel his pain and discomfort as she got closer to the door.

"Ethan" she called out knocking on his door, when he didn't answer she pushed the door open a little. She saw him balled up on his bed shaking like a leaf, she rushed towards him tears falling out of eyes.

"Oh Ethan I'm so sorry" Quickly letting her eyes shift blue as she put her hand on his chest, his green eyes popped open as he inhaled sharply.

"M..Mom, B…B..Bo she's hurt" He whimpered rubbing his chest

"I know and it's all my fault but I am going to fix this baby…I swear"

"Hurry she doesn't have much time…" He let his sentence hang as Lauren hit him with a huge dose making him fall asleep, Lauren kissed his forehead rushing out the room and straight to the plane. She didn't need clothes, she didn't need to waste time trying to pack…she needed to get to Bo and fast.

Lyric gasped shooting up grabbing her head, Tamsin cursed worried as she saw blood drip from the woman's nose.

"Lean your head back sweetie"

"That's normal Tamsin…don't panic"

"Don't panic! You were out for hours! Could've warn a girl I was getting scared and I don't scare easily" Tamsin says glaring at the woman but kissed her lips anyway.

"When all of this shit is over with I swear I am going to marry you" Lyric mumbled squeezing her nose as she watched Tamsin walk towards the bathroom for some tissue. She was lucky the blond didn't hear what she said, she looked over to the bed and saw Kenzi lying down next to the pale looking brunette.

"I got in contact…Lauren is on her way" Lauren took the tissue from Tamsin and pushed up her nose.

"Whatever..."

"Ken-

"Not now Lyric please I'm trying to keep a positive mindset, I will pray that Lauren get here soon because I don't' think she will survive the night." Kenzi let a few tears fall from her eyes, Tamsin walked over to the two women and crawled into bed with them and pulled the sweaty lifeless brunette to her chest.

"Pray she gets here on time"

As the clock struck midnight, Lauren could feel Bo slipping away through their bond. She cursed herself the whole run towards where the pull was leading her. If she wasn't busy being a pussy and dealt with her pain like she should have, she would've felt Bo pain and struggle long time ago. Running her legs into the ground, her lion pushed and pushed. She knew if she lost Bo…there was no going back, she didn't think she could handle another death of a soul mate. When she ran up upon an abandon house, she could feel both Bo and Lyric…Shifting into her human form, she untied the ball of clothes that was tied to her ankle and quickly dressed. Rushing to the door before she could even knock, the door swung open revealing a tear stained Lyric.

"No…

"Laur-

"No…I can still feel her" Lauren yells running pass the leopard and into the house. Taking the stairs two at a time, she was met with a crying Kenzi and shocked Tamsin who was frozen at the bathroom door. But her eyes zeroed in on the body that wasn't moving on the bed, Lauren felt sick…like vomiting sick but kept it down and slowly made her way to her mate.

"B..Bo?"

No response

"Kiss her! Force her to feed" Kenzi screams at the shifter pushing her closer to the bed, Lauren fell to her knees feeling tears fall from her eyes. She could easily see that the woman's chest was not moving, a sob broke through Lauren's lip as she crashed her lips to the Succubus. Kiss after kiss, no reaction. She quickly shifted her eyes, pushing her healing into Bo's mouth as her tears fell against Bo's face.

"Why isn't it working!" Kenzi asked frantic as Lyric grabbed the hysterical girl, watching her Alpha push and push kiss after kiss…losing her composure.

"Fuck! Bo wake up! I'm sorry baby" Lauren sobbed pulling the woman to her chest, she opened her eyelids and saw that her eyes were a dull blue. Lauren continue to prep kisses all over the Succubus face and neck, sucking the flesh into her mouth.

A jerk was felt

It was so soft Lauren could have miss it if she wasn't so focus, Lauren kept sucking and let her hands disappear under Bo's shirt and caressed her stomach.

She felt the muscle tense up at her touch

"Yes! Baby come back to me" Lauren says happily in tears, pulling her lips from the woman's neck and back to her lips she finally felt the pull…she gladly accept the pull greedily. Bo body arched off the bed as her eyes shot open revealing two bright ocean blue eyes, she continued to suck the person's chi until she felt the person go slack against her and even then she didn't stop. Her Succubus was starving and whoever chi she was sucking was fucking amazing. Lauren felt her life slip but didn't she pushed Bo away, she almost killed the woman…she needed to feel this pain, she needed to feel her life be taken away like she almost done to Bo.

"Bo stop!" Bo could hear someone yell at her but she ignored it and fed drunkenly on whoever was in her bed.

Stop

Bo felt her Succubus suddenly cut off the chi which made her gasp and fall back on her bed in confusion and shock. Blinking her eyes trying to figure out what the hell was going on, she looked down at the body and felt her whole world turned on its axis.

The body lying on her bed was Lauren.
