Thanks to everyone for reading, enjoy!

Mister grumpy stays at the main gate while my other new friend leads us into what looks like an office. He leaves briefly, coming back with a bandage for my hand. He helps me bandage my wound before making his way out again.

"Make yourselves comfortable, Myka won't be long."

Trick makes himself comfortable on the couch while Kenzi and I snoop around. I notice the huge bookshelf taking up the entire wall and can't help thinking that Lauren would sure get her geek on in here.

"Bo, check this out."

I walk over to where Kenzi is standing next to the desk with a huge smile on her face. Sitting open for the world to see is a copy of Laurens file, it can't be a coincidence.

Trying to keep calm Kenzi and I make our way to the couch and sit next to Trick. "Trick, there's a copy of Laurens file on her desk, she has to be here."

Before he can say anything the door opens and Myka enters the room. She greets Trick who then introduces us. We engage in small talk for a few minutes and I can't help liking her. She exudes confidence and warmth.

I try to be patient as Trick and Myka talk about mutual friends and relatives, I'm desperate to bring the topic around to Lauren.

When Myka turns her attention to me, I realise that I've been staring at her. Silence fills the room as we sit, evaluating one another. Eventually she leans forward slightly, "well this is lovely, but I think you may have bigger fish to fry?"

I have a feeling that I'll probably have more success taking the direct route. "Is Lauren Lewis here?"

Myka leans back in her chair. "What does Laurens whereabouts have to do with you?"

"We're concerned about her, we want to make sure she's ok."

I know I've made a mistake by Myka's reaction, she seems disappoint. "I see, so you're a friend of hers?"

Before I can back-pedal Kenzi interrupts. "Bo and Dr Hotpants are more than just friends, they have a thing."

Myka seems shocked. "You call Lauren Dr Hotpants?"

Before Kenzi can reply Myka bursts into laughter. It takes several minutes for her to recover from her laughing fit.

Eventually Myka leans forward in her chair again, completely serious. "Bo, do you love her?"

I don't break eye contact with her. "Yes."

Nodding her head she stands and makes her way to the bookcase. "Tell me Bo, over the last few months have you noticed anything unusual, anything different?"

I frown as I can't think of anything, but luckily Kenzi's with me. "She seems to be healing faster naturally, you know, without the succubus mojo."

Thinking back I know Kenzi is right and then I think of something else. "My colour has changed." Everyone looks at me. "Normally when I go all succubus my eyes are blue, but now they are..."

Before I can finish Myka interrupts, "a golden colour."

"Yes."

I recognise the book that Myka is carrying over to us, it's the same one that Trick has.

"Bo do you have a birthmark?"

I don't understand what she's getting at, but if it means I get to see Lauren I'll answer any questions she's got. "Yes, on my ankle."

Handing the book to Trick, who's sitting in the middle, Myka opens it and indicates a passage for us to read.

Born of dark and of light, two souls marked, bound by love.

One warrior.

One healer.

Together shall rule.

Kenzi's the first one to react. "Dude, that is some serious shit."

Trick doesn't seem the slightest bit surprised. "Myka are you sure this is the one?"

"Yes, it's the only one that makes any sense."

I suddenly find everyone's eyes on me so I say the first thing that pops into my head. "But Lauren doesn't have any birthmarks."

Kenzi snorts, "and you'd know."

Myka sits back down, moving her chair closer to us. "When Lauren was a teenager her parents took her to a doctor to have her birthmark checked, they were worried it might be a skin cancer. The doctor who removed it happened to be a light fae."

A sick feeling settles in the pit of my stomach and all I want is to see her. "Is she here?"

Myka smiles, "yes and if you come with me I'll take you to see her."
