Dyson
This is horrible. I had been at Bo and Lauren's condo for days. I walked around it thinking of what I was going to do about this new problem. I slept in my car at night just to keep an eye on the place. The same light remained on day and night. It was their bedroom light.
I hadn't spoke to Bo in days and she was now the Queen of the Fae. There was business that needed attending to. I had to call my old precinct to ask for additional cops to help out on the case load as I was busy with this.
My wolf was a bit broken as I often remembered why I was here in the first place. Lauren and Bo had been so happy after we defeated Hades so there was no strings attached to this. I knew my time with Bo was over long ago. I did my best as her second in command trying to update old laws and practices.
Truth be told it was hard to replace Trick's blood written laws without him being here. I missed my King dearly but I know he wouldn't want me grieving over him when my head and heart should be focused on helping Bo turn things around. The Elders that were under Hades spell had gone back to being as stubborn as they were that day in the Dal when we had all agreed to join forces.
I have never been one to admit to my own shortcomings but I need Bo. She's the heir. If they won't listen to me anymore surely they would listen to her. But once she stopped taking calls, they all went back on their merry way. The streets were littered with dead human bodies. Humans. Duh boy. I thought to myself and pulled my phone out.
The phone rung for a long time but I had no choice but to hang on until Kenzi answered.
"Kenzi you need to get back here! I sighed.
"Is she still not allowing anyone into the house? Kenzi asked.
"No and I have been trying for days. Whenever I go, I can feel her starting to pull my chi". Dyson said.
"Why is that a problem? Is Bo still not feeding? Kenzi asked worriedly. She hadn't heard from Bo either. That's how Bo had been for weeks. She assumed Bo didn't want to talk yet and she had her own orders from Bo to obey. Bo had never been arrogant about her new status but once she pulled rank Kenzi had no choice but to agree.
"No and it's been weeks Kenzi. Weeks! Dyson screamed. He wasn't mad at Kenzi. He was worried about Bo.
"She needs to feed then she can fix all of this". Kenzi said.
"That won't work Kenzi". Dyson sighed rubbing his head. He knew what Kenzi was talking about.
"Why? Bo is the daughter of the Hades, she can pretty much do anything she wants to do". Kenzi said.
"Lauren didn't die on the battlefield. Bo can't revive her. She can't even go and get her back like she did with you. Lauren is out of our reach". Dyson said. His voice cracked when he said Lauren's name. Kenzi heard it and took her mind back on that awful morning.
Bo and Kenzi were having breakfast. Lauren had looked dog tired since Bo kicked Hades ass. She never got Lauren to agree to take some time off from the local hospital that had hired her. She even tried to get them to put Lauren on vacation but Lauren refused the offer.
It had been weeks since they reconciled and they had bought a two-story Condo just outside of the city. The whole place was mostly Lauren's. She had a small lab. She wanted a bigger one but Bo wouldn't agree to it. If Lauren wouldn't take time off from work she wasn't about to allow her to work over time at home so she agreed to an exam room sized lab.
Bo spent most of her days trying to get the Elders to agree that picking sides would no longer be forced on anyone and that the Dal would remain neutral as Trick had always wanted it to be. They were stuck up bastards who no longer cared about the Blood King. Bo didn't care what they thought of Trick but they would respect his and her wishes. Even if she had to kick their ass or threaten them to get them to agree. Evony was still a human but she showed up often and unannounced. Vex had claimed her as his human.
That's why Lauren was working at the hospital. Under Bo's threats, Evony had shut down her own clinic to try and get Lauren to scale back on her work. Evony said she already inherited millions since her husband died so it was no skin off of her ass.
That's what brought Bo's world crumbling down. It wasn't her Fae world. It was her world.
When Lauren was taking too long to wake up or even come downstairs Bo had gone up to check on her. When she reached the bedroom she noticed Lauren's aura and it was dark. She went over to check on her and she wasn't breathing. She called for an ambulance on both Fae and human sides.
They rushed Lauren to the closest hospital and after two hours both Fae and human Doctors had pronounced her dead. Bo fell to the floor. Kenzi and Dyson picked her up and set her down in the closest chair. Her eyes were flashing blue and brown. Dyson knew it to be both sides of her mourning the Doctor.
Two days had passed and they couldn't get her to leave that spot until Evony called. Using her Succubus voice Bo had insisted that she was not taking any calls nor leaving Lauren's body.
Evony was fed up and headed over there. She could have sent one of her butlers but out of respect for Lauren she went in person.
When Bo's servants tried to keep Evony away she snapped her fingers and her guards held them back.
When Evony entered the room her own heart broke. That was the first time Lauren's death had hit her. Fae Evony wouldn't have been this emotional but the human one felt the loss deeply. Lauren had kept to her word trying to find a cure for the former Morrigan but Evony had insisted that it wasn't worth working herself to death for. Yet another reason she shut her clinic down. If Lauren wasn't going to run it anymore, there was not other Doctor she trusted to run it. Many applied for Lauren's old position and were denied. Kenzi and Dyson followed closely behind Evony.
"Ok Succubus I came here in person out of respect for Lauren and you are going to want to see what I have to show you". Evony said.
"Go away. That's an order". Bo snapped.
"Nice try but I'm no longer Fae sweetie. That shit won't ever work on me". Evony said softly stepping closer to Bo. She knew cursing in front of Lauren was wrong but Evony was never one to sugarcoat anything. Not even at a time like this.
"What do you want? Bo snapped bitterly.
"It's nothing I want. It's what you need. Answers". Evony said holding a folder.
"I will never need anything from you but for you to treat LouAnn better". Bo said. She hadn't forgotten how Evony stole LouAnn away from Trick.
"You need this and other information I have about Dr. Lewis". Evony said trying to hand her folder to Bo but Bo wasn't taking it.
"I will take it". Kenzi said stepping forward.
"No. Either Bo takes it or I will tell her myself what's in it. It was left to me under Dr. Lewis's orders". Evony said softly waving Kenzi back.
"Why would Lauren leave it to you and not Bo? Kenzi asked.
"Because she knew the Succubus better than anyone and Bo would either burn it or never read it". Evony said.
"Well can you at least tell us what it is? Dyson asked. He never trusted Evony but this wasn't about him and her. It was about Lauren and Bo.
"Records. Lauren's records". Evony said allowing Lauren's name to drip from her lips to let Bo know that they needed to talk privately.
"Kenzi, Dyson give us a few minutes". Bo said never taking her eyes off of Lauren.
"Ok but we will be right outside the door ok? Kenzi said softly.
"Fine". Bo snapped. Looking at Lauren lying motionless was starting to make her Succubus stir violently inside of her.
"You better contain that bitch. I'm not here for a fight. I come in peace and goodwill". Evony said.
Bo sighed. "Evony whatever it is get to it. You're taking my focus away from Lauren".
"Like I wasn't busy? I came here as a friend to Lauren". Evony said.
"Then get to it! Bo screamed.
Evony pulled a seat close to Bo but far enough away to stay safe in case her Succubus finally surfaced. She could see Bo struggling and it brought a tear to her eyes. This is what Lauren meant in everything she was about to tell Bo.
Clearing her throat she began to speak. "I know how she died. It was the same reason she broke up with you the last time". Evony said.
Bo hung her head. She had promised Lauren they would talk about all of that once things settled down. But Bo's world was Fae. When was it ever settled down? "Go on". She said softly.
"The day she broke up with you she had just found out that she had early stage Parkinson's disease. Her cognitive skills swiftly deteriorated and eventually her organs shut completely down but the Doctors had not determined how that happened overnight according to her medical records". Evony explained.
Bo hung her head again. She remembered Lauren saying she wasn't in the mood to talk much less argue that morning like they had the previous night. But Bo didn't ask why. She never asked why. She just put their obvious needs to talk aside time after time. When Lauren came to break up with her, that's when she really should have forced her to talk to her. Like the day at Taft's she knew something was up with Lauren but she didn't push the issue or thoroughly look for her.
"Why are you telling me this and why did she choose you over me? Bo asked.
"She never chose me over you. I always knew who Doctor Lewis wanted. It was always you. The same reason she turned me human. To protect you. Even before that. I wanted you dead and I could have killed you whenever I wanted but Dr. Lewis grew on me and my affections for her saved your life". Evony confessed. She owed it to Lauren to try and make Bo see Lauren's death was not Bo's fault nor nothing she physically did to the Dr.
"You never answered why you're telling me this". Bo said softly.
"Because Lauren asked me to in a letter she left with this folder. She knew if anyone else had told you they would leave certain parts out to protect you. That's what Lauren wanted to protect you from having to see her like this. She never turned on you for anyone. Not the Ash. Not Taft. Not me". Evony explained.
"Wait. You said Lauren's organs had suddenly shut down. Could that have been from the Conduit antidote? Bo asked. She hadn't forgot that Lauren told her that she took it.
"I'm not a Doctor or the daughter of that darkhole. You will have to ask Hades when you find his sorry ass". Evony snapped. She knew he was to blame for Lauren's sudden death. She had been treating her own Parkinson's and had no doubt she would beat that part of her condition.
"Thank you". Bo said softly. Lauren had been right to give her records to Evony. Anyone else would have trashed them or skipped over parts of the reports.
"Don't mention it. But if you do find Hades give him several kicks in the balls for me". Evony said finally handing Bo the folder as she stood to leave.
Bo nodded but never turned around to face Evony. Her eyes were starting to water.
"Oh one last thing. When you decide to bury her, let me know. We will give her the biggest sendoff and headstone the world has ever seen". Evony said over her shoulder and she meant it. Lauren deserved it. She turned around long enough to see Bo nod in agreement.
Kenzi had rushed back in after she saw Evony leave and what she saw brought her to tears. Bo was now holding Lauren. She saw Bo's tears falling to the ground.
"Come on babe. Let's go home". Bo cried picking Lauren up in her arms. She never looked at Kenzi. In fact she never looked up. She just walked out carrying Lauren to her newly minted Camaro and drove off.
Kenzi had jumped into Dyson's police cruiser and they followed Bo home. They knew she shouldn't be driving in that condition and hoped her Succubus would guide her even if she couldn't see the road through her tears.
They were really worried when Bo sped up. They figured she knew that they were following her. But Dyson put on his sirens to maintain his own speed.
Once they all arrived back at Bo and Lauren's, they watched Bo gently pull Lauren from the passenger's seat where she had buckled her in.
Kenzi ran up after them because if Bo went inside there would be no way for Kenzi to get in besides to break in. She made it just as Bo had started to kick the door close. Kenzi walked softly behind Bo as she walked upstairs and to their bedroom.
Bo slowly walked over to the bed and bent her head down on Lauren's shoulder as new tears escaped her eyes. Gently she laid Lauren on the bed and snuggled up next to her.
Kenzi watched them for almost 2 hours when she had to leave to relieve herself. Before she even opened the door she heard Bo call back to her.
"Kenzi take Dagny and get out of town. Do not come back unless I call for you". Bo said. She sounded exhausted but her words were very clear.
"But Bo..."Kenzi started.
"I am asking as your best friend and Queen of the Fae. You could never say no to me and my sister must be protected at all costs. Now go. Take the horseshoe and don't come back". Bo said using a mixture of voices so that Kenzi would understand that she meant every word.
That was the last time Kenzi has spoken to Bo. She called from burner phones but Bo never answered. When she reached Dyson he had told her nothing had changed. Bo was still hold up in the condo with nobody going in or out.
When he first tried to get Bo to leave with him long enough to feed or shower, her Succubus threw him out of the window. She locked all of the doors once Dyson had been removed. He didn't want to break any windows and he knew he was no match for Bo once she went into Succubus mode, as if he ever was. Lauren had been dead long enough for him to smell her flesh rotting.
Inside the condo
"Aife get up".
"I can't. My baby is devastated and she will die soon. I can't leave her". Aife said with her arms wrapped around Bo who was still snuggled up next to Lauren's body.
"I would have never requested that you be allowed to come with me if you were going to be like this. This is not helping her. Now get up I said".
"Mom! I can't! Aife cried out.
"I said get up! We have work to do and we can't do it from here". Isabeau said sternly.
"But going back to Valhalla won't help her either". Aife said getting up to wipe her eyes. She had never cried that much since the day she handed Bo off to LouAnn. She didn't even cry over Trick because Hades had slit her throat in midair as they both had lunged for each other.
"We are not going back to Valhalla yet. She didn't die on the battlefield so she wouldn't be there". Isabeau said as she bent over to kiss her namesake on the forehead. She rubbed her back and turned her attention back to Aife.
"Then where are we going? Aife asked.
"We are going to see my old friend Pete". Isabeau said.
Aife blinked a few times. She didn't know a Pete and never heard of one. "Pete who?
"My old friend Peter. I knew him long before he ever became a Saint". Isabeau sighed. Aife's questions were becoming as tiresome as watching Bo lying in her current state. If anybody could tell when a Succubus was about to bust out, it was another Succubus.
Bo was deathly white she hadn't had a full feed in so long. Neither Succubus liked the sight of her and now wasn't the time for them to succumb to the weakened state she was in. They couldn't physically touch her but felt her pain all the same.
"Come Aife". Isabeau waved her over and they were both gone in a matter of seconds.
Bo was so lost and broken without Lauren that the whispering she was doing in her ears weren't even getting out of her mouth like she meant for them to. She curled up a little closer after noticing sudden bouts of warm coat her own body. Apologies was all that she could manage to say. No matter what Evony had told her, she carried great guilt all over her body.
Her lips from the last time Lauren kissed her. She had to rush out to an Elder meeting and Lauren stayed behind to clean the kitchen as she would be heading for work soon.
The warmth of Lauren's body the last time they made love. Lauren did all of the work that night. She took Bo's body places it had never been. If Bo ever rated them making love that one would be in the top two.
The last movie they watched cuddled up on the couch. Lauren in her exhaustion had fallen asleep on top of Bo. She looked so beautiful to the Succubus that they spent the night in that position other than when Lauren rolled over in Bo's arms.
She closed her eyes and held Lauren closer. She knew the Doctor was gone and there was nothing that she could do to get her back. She wanted to hold her until she had no choice but to bury her remains. She thought of burying Flora in Dyson's memories. That was painful but imagining having to do that with the real Lauren was unbearable. Unspeakable. She closed her eyes tighter smelling Lauren's scent on her button down shirt and her shampoo in her hair. She had bathed and clothed her the night she brought her back from the morgue.
Next! Came a mans's voice
The people in line were heard grunting and yelling obscenities.
"Well I said excuse me and all of you acted is if you didn't hear me! Aife snapped clearing the way for her Queen Mother.
"What's going on back there? St Peter asked. When he saw Isabeau his mouth dropped.
"Ahhh Peter. Hello old friend". Isabeau smiled warmly. Peter would have been her husband had she not fallen for Trick and he had loftier goals than to remain mingling in the Fae world.
"Isabeau? What are you doing here? St. Peter smiled warmly.
"We need to talk". Isabeau said cutting to the chase.
"I'd love to dear but as you can see I have a line out the gates". St. Peter replied.
"Oh none of them have a problem waiting. If they do, they can go elsewhere". Aife laughed turning around to face the line. She kept her back pressed against Isabeau's.
"It's a long line sweetie". St. Peter smiled at Isabeau.
"If you don't help us and soon it's going to be a longer line". Isabeau said softly. She really was pressed for time but knew she needed to keep her temper in check.
"How's that? The baby Succubus? She's in no shape to do anything". St. Peter said.
"How long do you think she will stay like that Peter? She's minutes away from unleashing all hell on any and everyone. Without the Doctor no human or Fae will be safe". Isabeau explained. Aife knew she was right. She had told her about the Lich and look how easily she disposed of him and the others under Hades influence. If he came to Bo now, all were doomed.
"I can do nothing about the Doctor. She has already been assigned to a realm far above my reach". St. Peter said.
"Peter don't make me do it. You know my powers can and will work here if I want them to. If you can't help us then tell us how to get to her". Isabeau said looking around. She didn't see another door and knew nothing of this place other than her powers and Aife's could work there and she would use them if she needed to. It was taking all she had not to unleash them on Peter. She only knew how to find it because as Queen of the Fae she and Trick both knew of people that had access to the portals should they ever need them.
"There is no need for threats Succubus. You may have your Doctor back. As you have pointed out the Succubus without her will bring destruction to all of my creations". A deep voice said raining down over them.
"Who was that? Aife whispered.
"My boss and the only one that could grant your request". St. Peter said.
"What's the catch? Aife asked. She never trusted a deal without some form of payment from the requesting parties.
"You must convince the good Doctor to go back under her own free will. There will be no thralling allowed here Aife". The voice said.
"Why did you call me out? Aife laughed.
"Because I know of you and how your mind works. You and Isabeau are not allowed to use your powers on the Doctor". The voice said.
"We understand". Isabeau said turning to cover Aife's mouth. This was no time for antics or show of force.
"Good now as Peter said this is above his duties so I will be keeping a close eye on the both of you and will be checking in as needed". The voice explained.
"Understood now where is she? Isabeau asked and waited for an answer. They both jumped when a door opened out of nowhere with a small staircase for them to use.
"Let's go Aife. I don't think we have a lot of time here". Isabeau said walking ahead of her daughter.
"But if we can't use our powers how are we going to convince her to go back? Aife asked. Neither of them had ever officially met Lauren. So what good would they be at influencing her?
"Mama has a black up plan don't worry baby". Isabeau smiled. Aife laughed. She should have known.
The ladies walked up the small staircase and stopped once they reached the top. They saw an arrow and followed it. It was a long hall but they knew they were headed in the right direction. It had to be a hospital but why they needed one there was another question they couldn't answer.
"Well fuck me! Aife said once they reached Lauren's room.
"That language is not allowed here! The voice screamed shaking the floor they were standing on.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry". Aife said softly. But honestly why was Lauren like this of all things she could have been like?
"Is she? Isabeau asked.
"She's physically well. She lapsed into this state shortly after realizing she was no longer dreaming but dead". The voice explained.
Aife shook her head. She knew this look. Lauren was in a catatonic state. How the hell were they going to get her out of this? She stood back as Isabeau approached the Doctor.
"Mom? Aife whispered.
"Shhh. I have a plan I told you". Isabeau smiled pulling a small notebook from her pocket and some kind of recorder.
Aife put her hands on her hips and watched her mother. When she heard Bo's voice say Lauren it spooked her.
"How did you do that? Aife asked.
"I found it on her nightstand. Apparently Bo recorded herself saying Lauren's name. Probably her attempts at trying to revive the Doctor". Isabeau explained.
"Well it doesn't appear to be working". Aife said after a few minutes had already passed.
"I have a back up plan for my back up plan". Isabeau said putting the recorder back in her pocket.
"Now what's that? Aife asked watching Isabeau sit down next to Lauren.
"It appears to be a notebook of love letters Bo wrote to Lauren but never gave her. Now hush I will try to read one to her and see if it works". Isabeau said. Aife nodded and pulled out a chair in front of them. This could be so much easier if she could use her powers but being in an institution before she knew that would be like medicating the patient.
Isabeau lifted her hand asking for complete silence as she started to read the first page.
Dear Lauren
I don't know where you have gone or why you decided to ask for a break but I do know, I am half a woman without you. Half a Succubus too. I thought things were going so great for us but I know now that that was me either being oblivious or arrogant about our problems thinking you would be waiting once I got tired of playing Cops and Fae with Dyson. I am so sorry about that. I had no idea it had all gotten so out of hand.
I wish you were here so I could tell you these things in person. When I found the folder about your past in your old apartment I never thought that I would find you again. Since you had many tours in Afghanistan I am pretty sure you knew how to run and hide your identity like you have been doing all of these years. The Fae must have gotten word of that along with cursing Nadia to keep you under their thumb.
I knew the moment that I found out that you weren't just working for them of your own free will that I would do any and everything in my power to free you. I honestly thought that I had succeeded until you told me that you recommitted to Lachlan. That bastard should have let you go. I was willing to let you go. It would have been tough but I would have accepted it. But then you came back with Nadia and I thought you were about to run that night you came to talk to me, slept in my arms and showed up in the throne room after Lachlan had been murdered.
If I understand you like I think I do, I know you wouldn't just up and leave without a goodbye. Somebody must have gotten wind of your past other than the Fae and convinced you that leaving with them was your only choice. And I was horribly right when I found you in Taft's compound. I didn't understand it then but I understand it now. Now that Dyson is out there looking for you. Know that I cursed both Kenzi and Dyson's asses up and down when they admitted that they knew where you were and then lost you.
How could they hide you from me? But then again Dyson helped hide Aife so that was not too far of a stretch for him. But this is not about him. It's not about Kenzi. It's not about Trick. It's not about the Fae. This is about you and me.
Aife noticed a small change in the Doctor and pressed Isabeau to continue.
I know that I haven't always been fair to you Lauren. Probably because I love you more than anyone or anything else in the world. You're the reason a lot of people are still alive. You're the reason that I stopped killing my sexual partners. I know that was unfair too. But I couldn't help being a Succubus that way because I didn't even know I was one until you told me. You helped me control my hunger and I won't lie that I nearly wet myself in anticipation of our first time making love.
No matter how it happened or why it happened. I cherish that night along with the many other times we shared together. I may have had people in my bed but none of them had all of me lying on top of them, kissing them or snuggling next to them like I was with you.
I know why and how easily I fell for you. Everyone could see it. Kenzi even if she didn't want to admit it at first. Dyson feeling threatened by you was another example. Even the Lich knew it. That's why he and many others wanted you dead. They know the best way to get to my Succubus would be to kill you. But I swear if the Fae ever did, I would skip your funeral and come and get you myself. You will not die like that. Not on my watch.
"That's the end of the first one". Isabeau said softly trying to contain her tears. She wished she could go back and hold her granddaughter for real. But only a Valkyrie, Hades or Bo can go back and forth from Valhalla or the underworld.
"She flinched a bit. It had to be working. How many others are there? Aife asked watching Isabeau turn the page.
"There appeared to be many more but all of them have been ripped out except for one". Isabeau said.
"What's on it? Aife asked.
"You will see when I read it". Isabeau smiled. She noticed this one was brand new and she was eager to read it. This had to snap Lauren out of her state. It was hard to read because it looked like the paper had been wet. Not doubt from Bo's tears.
Dear Lauren
Where have you gone now? Don't tell me you are off somewhere building a house with a picket fence and kids. That was supposed to be our life. That's why I asked you who would want to live that life with me. I wanted you to say, you would. When you didn't that's when I pretended to get up to go after Vex. Your aura was so hot. I know you wanted me as much as I wanted you.
That's why I told you to go back to sleep because I wanted to come back and have many, many more rounds with you. I wanted to celebrate making love to you because I knew I had already fallen for you and you had survived four rounds with me already that night. I wasn't going to be gone long. I just wanted Vex to pay for what he had done to LouAnn because if he could do that to her, over her falling in love with a human, I had no doubt he would stab me in the back for falling for you.
I will build that house one day. Even if I have to settle for putting a white picket fence outside of our condo. I know it wouldn't be the same but a life without you would never be the same.
I love you Lauren. I can't believe you're gone and there is nothing I can do to get you back like I did Kenzi. I don't even know how to get to you or who would. The Fae won't tell me because as Queen I'm supposed to have all of the answers. But what's a question without an answer? Just a question. That's all my life is right now. One big question of what I will do without you. I love you Lauren wherever you are...
"That's all there is". Isabeau said wiping her eyes.
"Da...ng. I don't think it worked". Aife said looking over Lauren's demeanor.
"I don't think it did either". Isabeau sighed pulling the recorder out of her pocket again. She flicked the play and rewind buttons so Lauren would hear her name over and over again. Something just had to snap her out it.
"What makes you think it didn't work? The voice asked above them.
"What it worked? Aife asked. Lauren hadn't moved an inch.
"You've done your part. The rest is up to the Doctor". The voice said.
"What? How is that even possible? She never moved". Aife said standing to her feet.
"She didn't? The voice asked playfully mocking her.
"Look at her eyes, they're closed". Isabeau smiled as Aife circled the Doctor. She wasn't believing that it worked.
"Has she? Isabeau asked.
"She has". The voice answered.
"We can go see for ourselves". Aife said softly. Besides closing her eyes, she saw no other changes in Lauren.
"I can help with that". The voice said and like that, they were gone.
"You'd help us that easily? We don't have to sacrifice anything do we? Aife asked grabbing her breasts.
"No. I will give your Doctor all that she needs to return". The voice said.
"Ok but if she dies again, we will be back". Aife said almost threateningly.
"Oh goodness sakes no. I don't want to see you back ever. The Doctor will never leave the Succubus again. You have proven to me that you care about Isabeau, and my humans, current and future. So for their safety alone, I will return the Doctor to the Succubus". The voice said.
The condo.
Bo had been holding on to Lauren's body so long that she almost felt like Lauren was warmer. She rolled the Doctor over on to her back and rested her head on Lauren's chest. How many mornings, days and nights had she spent in that very position? It was the absolute best. It carried her away to a peaceful time in their lives. No diseases to cure. No Elders up Bo's ass about the tiniest of things.
Bo took a deep breath and her Succubus started to stir. Lifting her head, her eyes flashed blue. She looked around but didn't hear anything in their room, or in the house. She could still hear Dyson walking around outside.
She had given him fair warning not to try and come in again. Once she was certain there wasn't anyone daring to break in or inside already she bent down to the Doctor again.
She hovered over Lauren's head, closing her eyes she gently kissed her on the lips. Her eyes quickly opened when she felt the Doctor responding. She pulled back and looked at Lauren. Her eyes were still closed.
"Ehh what the hell". Bo thought closing her eyes and leaning back down to kiss the Doctor again. She was stopped when Lauren's hands gripped the sides of her head.
"Feed Bo". Lauren whispered loud enough for her to hear her.
"Lauren? What? How? Bo asked with tears flooding her face.
"I am still your Doctor and my current course of treatment for you, is for you to feed". Lauren said softly drying Bo's tears with the pads of her thumbs.
"But Lauren. How? What? Bo asked again. Lauren's thumbs couldn't keep up with all of Bo's tears.
"Ahhh still stubborn". Lauren laughed pulling Bo's lips to hers. When she did Bo's whole body felt like it was on fire. This was a kiss like none they had ever had before. When Lauren's tongue entered her mouth, she could already taste her Chi. Lauren was pushing it inside of her Succubus with every movement of her tongue.
Bo could swear she was dreaming and if she was, she needed to find out. Reluctantly she pulled back and looked Lauren over. Her scent was the same. Her body was the same. Her eyes had a different tint, but they were still the same beautiful orbs she could get lost in for days.
"You haven't fed enough". Lauren said softly.
"I just...I don't know Lauren. I can't believe it's really you". Bo whispered. This would be embarrassing if it was a ghost.
"I don't think I'd like the look of having a picket fence around this condo. We are gonna need to buy another house". Lauren replied.
Bo's eyes went wide. She had written that after Lauren died. What the hell was really going on? "It's...it's really you". She said softly.
"Fine if you won't feed for me, I will bring Dyson in here". Lauren said playfully.
"Ohhhh no. You are not leaving this bed Dr. Lewis". Bo laughed leaning over to feed from Lauren.
Lauren laughed into their kiss and groaned when Bo pulled back again.
"Wait. Can you handle this...I mean me feeding from you? Bo asked gently. She really was starving, and knew she was in serious need of a full feed.
"I can handle it. The question is can you? Lauren laughed. There it was. Another question without an answer that Bo would gladly spend the rest of the day in bed with Lauren seeking the answer.
"And on that note we really should be going". Isabeau said.
"Do you think Lauren can really handle sleeping with Bo? Aife asked.
"Ladies I told you. I gave her everything she needed to sustain the Succubus. Trust that Aife". The voice they heard before whispered for their ears only.
Aife laughed again. That guy really didn't like her much but she was fine with it.
When Bo and Lauren started ripping each others clothes off, Isabeau grabbed Aife.
"Grandma really doesn't need to see that". Isabeau said putting Bo's notebook and recorder back on the table.
"Neither does mama". Aife laughed quickly turning her head away as they were once again, gone as quickly as they came.
