A/N: Hey guys, this is the sequel to The Life I Choose. So, just a quick heads up. I'm going to finish up the stories I currently have going eventually and do a couple sequels to finish off some stories that just don't seem quite done to me and then I will "retire" Now, I'm telling you now because this way when everything is done I don't spring it on anybody. It just gets harder and harder to write with lack of feedback which I heavily use for inspiration, motivation etc. I understand that this is a dying fandom and people have moved on to newer ones that are still going. Currently, I sadly don't have another ship from any show that I like enough to write about even though I really like Sanvers. But don't worry considering it takes me forever to update now it won't happen for a while, I just didn't want to surprise anybody when it finally does happen.

Bo – Lauren and Bo's New Home – Living Room – Afternoon – Nearly 4 Weeks Later
"Okay, I-" I paused mid everything as I opened the door to find Lauren dancing to some upbeat music as she was unpacking some more of our stuff. I couldn't help but grin at the sight before me. Only she could look adorable and sexy, all while being the mother of our children.
Of course, it's still too early for her to be showing. But I swear she's glowing. Lauren spun around in her dance, saw me and danced her way over to me, giving me a welcome back kiss with her hands on my face.
"You were gone far too long." I grinned as I maneuvered us over to the couch to have a seat. "I was only gone for about 30 minutes. I did break traffic laws to get back here as fast as possible. I'm sorry baby and my little babies." I made Lauren giggle as I rubbed her stomach and baby talked the twins.
"I wish Grant was here to unpack everything with a blink of an eye." I said as I looked at all the boxes surrounding us. "I'll have you know I'm not Samantha Stephens from Bewitched. But I'll help you two girls settle in with my actual magic."
Damn it, I jump every time he appears out of nowhere with his well-dressed blue suit and matching tie with his British accent. With a few flicks of his wrists and points here and there, all of our stuff was unpacked by trails of golden sparks neatly putting everything in its own place.
"There. I conjured this lovely home with six bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 offices, 1 gym for you four the least I can do is unpack everything as well."
"Sarcasm?" I asked as he sat down on the black leather loveseat adjacent to us. "Heavens no, I am a proper gentleman. If one is to gift a house, one is to help settle in the house. Now, pardon the slight intrusion but I read both your minds to help me place everything in the house to your liking."
Grant clapped his hands as he continued to speak. "Now, how is my favorite couple? How're the little ones coming along? Any symptoms yet No need to feed?"
Lauren shook her head. "No, not yet." Grant smiled, "Good, now Lauren…as long as you feed regularly when the need arises your symptoms should be very minimum. Bo, Lauren is one the one that taught you control but Lauren has never been in your shoes. You're going to need to guide her this time."
"I know…We know." I promised as I looked lovingly at Lauren, taking her hand in mine. "Good, how are things going with the Fae law changes?"
"Good…It's been quiet. Oddly quiet…" Lauren's suspicious tone was not lost on me and unfortunately, I have to agree. No one is good with change, especially not the Fae. We're both waiting for the other shoe to drop any day now.
"I see…Well, your mutual suspicions are in good company with mine." Suddenly, we heard something close to a light chime. "What was that?" I jumped up and grabbed my go-to knife from its holster.
Grant chuckled as he stood up from his seat. "Relax, Ms. Dennis…Overtime if my charges and I become bonded enough then you guys are able to hear that little sound that tells me I'm being summoned by another charge or those I answer to. In this case, it's another charge so, I must go. But before I go…"
Grant snapped his fingers and there was an alarm system by the door. "There, now you have an alarm system. It's not foolproof against all Fae but, it'll bring some peace of mind. I'll explain how it works in detail later. I must go now, ta!...And don't let your guard down too often, I have a feeling that it won't stay quiet for too much longer. But remember, you guys are never alone."
And like always, he was gone just like that with a blink of an eye. Just as I felt my succubus stirring with a comment. "Great…Just when I was starting to really like the guy, he just had to be the bearer of ominous bad news…"
Lauren stood up and pulled me into her arms. "It'll be fine, Succubus. I promise."
"…It's still so weird that she can sometimes hear me now too. I'm not nervous. She doesn't make me nervous." Lauren chuckled as she gave me…Us, a calming kiss on the lips. "I make the big bad Succubus nervous…So cute."
"Don't call me cute. I'm not cute. Tell her not to call me cute in case she can't hear me anymore!"
Lauren was about to respond for herself when her phone rang with Kenzi's picture. "Hey Kenzi, what's up?"
"Hey Lo, I'm close to your new medical facility with a very injured Hale and Dyson, come quick with BoBo."
"We're on the way now. I'll alert my medical staff of your arrival."
"Why do I get the feeling quiet time is officially over?" Lauren and I shared a concerned look as we both silently agreed with my succubus. Quiet time feels over.
I really hope we're wrong. Please don't be over. Please don't let quiet time be over already…
