Kenzi and Dyson
"Ahh mama always said put alcohol on it". Kenzi smiled as she grabbed a bottle of Vodka.
Dyson walked around. Something was off. Very off. He looked at the tables, at the floors, the ceiling, and behind the bar.
"Shit! The wolf finally snapped.
"What? You know I always need my Vodka". Kenzi said downing her third shot.
"You don't understand Kenz. The Succubus was here". Dyson growled in anger.
"Well yeah. Even though she's in her Succubus form, she is still Trick's granddaughter". Kenzi said rolling her eyes. Sometimes Dyson wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.
"Not Bo's Succubus, Aife". Dyson growled slamming his hand on a table.
"But I thought...". Kenzi froze.
"We did. She must have gotten free somehow. Trick!? Trick are you here? Dyson screamed into his lair. Nothing.
"Are you sure it's Aife you smell? Kenzi asked. She hadn't moved from her spot. That Succubus would be even more pissed off than Bo's is as the moment.
"I would know that scent anywhere. Oh and you didn't tell Bo that we saw her mother too after Taft's did you? Dyson asked.
"You just did". Isabeau laughed.
"How the Fae is she doing that?! Kenzi asked setting her bottle back down.
"I don't know but this isn't good. New plan. Lets get out of here". Dyson growled again. This was not going to be easy at all. Things with Bo could get tense, but they always made up. Especially in ways that pleased him most. He wasn't sure why the Succubus was everything Dr. Lewis lately since they had slept together more than a few times since they all left Taft's, but all he needed to do was to get Bo to take control and everything would be back to normal.
Isabeau and Aife
"He is going to be so pissed off and bruised". Aife laughed.
"That's exactly why I put his ass in the trunk, and why I am driving so fast". Isabeau laughed as she sped up even more.
"He deserves that and so much more". Aife laughed pushing a lock of hair behind her ear.
"Mom I'm sorry about Kenzi and Dyson. Those idiots never told Bo that they saw you or knew where you were. I smell Trick's hand in this too". Isabeau said.
"I tried to warn you about them Isabeau. Well I tried to warn Bo. Once Trick gets something planned in his head, he only needs to tell Dyson and he will follow it down to every detail". Aife replied.
Isabeau sighed and took a deep breath. Bo was so easy when it came to Dyson, Trick, and Kenzi. But horrible as shit with Lauren. Imagine being mad one of them for the same thing but not the other. It wasn't about love either, she just wanted to hurt Lauren like she had been hurt. Who the fuck does that shit? Lauren is the best thing that has ever happened to them and Bo was too stupid to notice or care.
He knew about Aife and said nothing until he had no choice but to. Then she slept with Lauren under the same pretense of protection and stayed mad at her after the fact. How was protecting Bo from Aife not the same thing as Lauren trying to protect Bo from Vex? It wasn't. Silly ass. The Succubus growled and slammed on her brakes once they reached the compound.
"Shall I? Aife asked.
"No I will get that bastard out". Isabeau said as she climbed out of her car and popped the trunk.
"Isabeau listen to me". Trick pleaded. His face was candy apple red. He looked flushed with marks from Isabeau's spare tire all over his face.
"I will not listen to another lie from you. You lie about every fucking thing. Your wolf just told me about you hiding mom. So your time talking to me is over". Isabeau snapped angrily dragging the man towards the entrance.
Isabeau silenced everything around her. She needed to focus. The building was huge. So huge she hadn't checked every room and closet before she left Lauren there. The Doctor was close, she just needed to find her. She closed her eyes for two seconds and saw where she was.
It was something she would talk with Lauren about. She wouldn't hide things from the woman she loved. Secrets lead to bullshit and she never liked shit, even from a bull.
She should have come forward sooner. Before Bo lost Lauren. Before she saved Dyson after her Dawning. Before Hecuba when those bitches nearly killed the Doctor. Before Lauren experienced any heartbreak at the hands of her alter ego. But she's here now, and damned if Bo was going to ever get another chance to fuck things up again.
She finally did the one thing Bo didn't admit to doing, she freed Lauren. Anything the Doctor wants is or will be hers as soon as she wished for it. Longed for it. It suddenly struck the Succubus that she didn't know much about Lauren's past except for her other name. She wondered if that was something Lauren was using to shield Bo from. Imagine a human Doctor putting her life on the line for a self-absorbed, Fae brunette.
A loud noise was heard as Isabeau threw Trick head first in the room where she knew Lauren was. She didn't hear any voices which pleased her because Rainer must be dead, and that would be funny and welcomed news.
"Lauren? Are you ok? Isabeau asked gently.
The Doctor was bent over a dark haired man. He had been burns all over his arms and hands. She laughed knowing he must have touched Lauren and or wrapped his arms around her.
"I didn't do anything. He came up behind me, then I felt a warm sensation against my back and that's when he screamed". Lauren explained.
"Hey. Hey you. Wake the fuck up". Isabeau laughed as she slapped the man. She pulled Lauren away from him when his eyes opened.
"Bo? Bo is that you finally? I knew it, I knew you'd come for me just like you promised so long ago". Rainer smiled from the floor.
"My name is Isabeau and hell if I came for you. I don't even know you". Isabeau laughed at the poor fool.'
"But I remember a dark haired Succubus". Rainer frowned.
"What kind of crack has this idiot been smoking? Isabeau laughed.
"But my Queen. We have known each other for centuries". Rainer said sadly.
"You mean me don't you? Aife laughed stepping forward.
"What the hell? I have missed a lot. There are two Succubus. One named Isabeau..that can't be, and Aife? My friend, it has been years". Rainer smiled.
"Easy mom. These things must be done delicately". Isabeau said gently pushing the growling Succubus back.
The women circled the man as Lauren stood watching. She was a bit confused but knew in time Isabeau would explain things. Especially something concerning her mother and the man on the floor. This can't be good, she thought internally.
"Lauren you must understand that he has to die, and so does Trick". Isabeau said with her eyes flashing blue.
"Bo, no! Lauren said.
The Succubus sighed and looked at the Doctor over her shoulder.
"I'm sorry, Isabeau. But why must they die? Both of them? Lauren asked. Trick was still frozen in place and the man on the floor looked just as lost.
"This bastard on the floor killed my grandmother. Knowing this and fearing for his own life, Trick helped him flee by cursing him to a train, he never got on. As punishment for Mom trying to avenge her death, Trick handed her over to the Dark, like a slave". Isabeau snapped as she kicked the man in the head.
Lauren frowned at Aife, she knew that feeling all too well. Being locked in a dungeon not knowing when you were ever going to get out. The Succubus never looked up, never said a word. Lauren could see the blue in both of their eyes.
"Are we going to stand out here all day? Vex whispered.
"Shut up. This is getting good". Evony giggled from the door.
"Get in here Vex and Evony! Isabeau screamed and the sound shook the floor beneath everyone.
"Now now. We had no part in this". Vex said nervously.
"What happened to you? Lauren asked.
"When I brushed by you the other day, it burned some skin off of me arm". Vex said pointing to a large bandage wrapped around his arm.
"Have a seat or join this bastard on the floor". Isabeau growled.
Lauren jumped when she heard Kenzi scream.
"Does everyone want an ass whipping today? Isabeau laughed.
Aife was tired of waiting and drained the man on the floor and set her sights on Trick. She didn't know his mother but knew he was a son of a bitch. He had no idea how often she screamed while chained in the dungeons. Screaming in frustration. Screaming for her mother. Screaming to be set free. Screaming to keep her mind and senses in tact.
"Isabeau? You want to remove your hold? Aife asked.
Isabeau snapped her fingers and her blue eyes returned to brown. She went over to Lauren.
"I'm sorry. It had to be done". Isabeau said gently.
"I understand". Lauren nodded.
"I hope you do. I know this is why you stayed with the Dark. To free Bo from the Dark. You didn't have to do that Lauren. You didn't have to risk your life for hers yet again. I'm a big girl, I can protect the both of us, and most importantly, I can protect you. Which is why I gave you my Chi, to protect you from bastards like that". Isabeau said pointing to Trick and Dyson, who just entered the room.
"I don't need your protection". Lauren said staring into the Succubus eyes.
"You want me to remove my Chi? Isabeau frowned. She knew Lauren could take care of herself, she just never trusted the Fae, even though she is Fae.
"If you are going to kill Trick, I'd prefer not to be here". Lauren said.
"Then take my car and go wherever you want". Isabeau said pulling her keys from her jacket pocket.
"I can't do that". Lauren said shaking her head no.
"Please Lauren. I don't want you walking anywhere. I know when you look at me, you see hurt and pain at Bo's hands. If you need to get away, at least I know you won't have car trouble. It has a full tank of gas and an envelope full of money under the driver's seat. Please take these Lauren. I want you to be comfortable and happy. So if you need to get away for awhile, I will understand". Isabeau said holding the keys up.
"I do need some air". Lauren said.
"Then take it and as much space as you need. As much space as Bo promised you. As much space as you deserve. I would never claim you Lauren. I don't own you, just the Chi inside of you". Isabeau smiled.
Lauren smiled noticing that Isabeau remembered their break talk. She had almost forgotten everything she did and said with Bo, that her Succubus was there too.
"Move! Isabeau said snapping her fingers and everyone moved as she rolled out a long red carpet for Lauren to walk out of the building on.
"Keep your growls to yourself wolf". Isabeau said as she was immediately in his face as Lauren walked by her. She inhaled the Doctor's scent as she walked by and moaned when she left the room.
"Delicious". The Succubus said licking her lips and made sure Dyson saw her.
"Bo! Bo come back to me! Dyson pleaded.
"Dumbass dog. She was never yours, so how can she come back to you? Isabeau smiled widely.
"Bo loves me. I know she does. She will". Dyson snapped pushing Kenzi behind him.
"She won't. She loves Lauren. We both do and since I'm in control, you can forget about Bo". Isabeau laughed.
"I know she loves Lauren, that's why I've been fighting for her. She could love me in time". Dyson said.
"The day after Evony's party, Bo didn't shower. She wanted to keep Lauren's scent all over her. That night the Una Mens caught you two fucking, she was thinking of Lauren. That's why her eyes were closed. She was thinking of Lauren in your memories. Yours. Now does that sound like someone that will soon come to love you? And because of your penis? Isabeau laughed. She knew every word was hurting the wolf just as her actually hitting him would.
Dyson growled until his eyes rolled over. She hurt him and they both knew it. Lauren walked out of there literally on a red carpet and Bo's Succubus was treating him like a throw rug, wolf style.
"Let me try". Kenzi whispered.
"I heard you Kenzi. How the hell did you two even get in here? Isabeau laughed.
"The doors were wide open so we ran". Kenzi replied.
"Ahh I see". Isabeau said as she snapped her fingers and the building shook from doors slamming.
"How the fuck are you doing that? And more importantly, get the hell out of my building". Evony snapped.
"How about you get out of Lauren's building. Do you want to walk or fly again? Isabeau laughed.
"Retreat. Retreat". Vex said.
"Vex I thought you got enough the other day". Isabeau laughed pointing at his arm.
"I didn't want to come, she forced me". Vex said nodding towards the Morrigan.
"I did not, you came on your own". Evony snapped.
"I'm tired of the lot of you, now get the fuck out of my sight! Isabeau snapped her fingers again, and that only left her, Aife and Trick.
"Mom if you are going to kill him, then kill him. Lauren knows it needs to be done". Isabeau said never looking at Trick. He never deserved it again. The lies were over and all of his bullshit was about to come to an end.
She walked over to Rainer's body. He was the reason Lauren had been there. The reason she wouldn't come home. How silly was Bo not to see that Lauren was staying, because she had yet again dumped another one of her problems on the Doctor.
That was all over now. Lauren was gone again. This time literally on her own free will. But the Succubus wasn't sad much about that. She meant what she said. She does love Lauren, and she would never want to own her or force her to do anything that she doesn't want to do. If Lauren was going to come back, it would be on her own and not being pressured or spoken nasty to, to guilt her into coming back. That's something Bo would do.
Then she thought about Trick, all things Fae lead directly back to him. There was no mistaking that he had his little hands in everything. The Ash. The Una Mens. Hell she'd even bet Evony was once an ally of his, although she would never admit it.
From what she understood Rainer wanted to be King with either Aife or Bo as his Queen. Fae marriages lasted thousands of years, Rainer would bore Isabeau in the first five minutes. His stone age language bored her just a few minutes ago.
No she wanted someone exciting and up to date. She wants Lauren.
"I'm done Isabeau". Aife said throwing the Blood King dead in front of her.
"It had to be done". Isabeau said softly.
"Then why do you look like someone kicked you in balls that you don't have". Aife said gently walking over to her daughter.
"Lauren didn't want him to die. He had to though. He can't be trusted. I want her mom, but I know she will always look at me and my life as death, death, and more death". Isabeau said.
"So make her think otherwise". Aife said.
"We are Fae mom, it is what we do". Isabeau said making quotation marks with her fingers.
"Isabeau we are Succubi, we can have anyone we want. But looking at you now, I know you would never want to do that to her. So make her understand that you aren't a killer, unless you have to be. Trick and Rainer both deserved to die. For humans and Fae alike. They were evil men. Trick just got by because he looked harmless. But his blood was cursed. Hell it flows in us, and we aren't out to kill each other or put each other in dungeons". Aife explained.
"Family ties". Isabeau said.
"Which is why you sent that stupid ass Oracle after me, am I right? Aife asked as they walked out of the compound.
Isabeau sighed as they stood on the steps.
"Yes I know you told Bo you don't want to talk about it. But I'd really like to know who my dad is. I am sure he's the reason, I can snap my fingers and anything can appear or happen". Isabeau said.
"He was a bastard Isabeau, believe me you are better off without him. He makes Trick look like a priest". Aife answered.
"I don't want to see him, that's a whole lot of problems, I don't need. I just want to know who he is. So I can do some research on him. Lauren is gone for who knows how long, and I need to keep busy". Isabeau said.
"Hades. He's in Tartarus, and unable to leave". Aife replied rubbing her daughter's back. Isabeau felt things Aife was incapable of, love and compassion for others.
"Ok so I have a name. I just need to find a Fae encyclopedia". Isabeau said.
"Trick has thousands of books. But I can tell you that Hades has hundreds of powers. He's basically a God. So there is a lot you can do, that the rest of us can't". Aife said walking step for step with the Succubus.
"You are going to see him whether you want to or not". Tamsin laughed in front of them.
"Weren't you like five two days ago? Isabeau laughed.
"Valkyries age very quickly, and since I'm tired of sleeping in that bullshit clubhouse, I'm ready to take you to your daddy". Tamsin laughed.
"Isn't your mommie Kenzi around? Isabeau laughed.
"Say her name again like that bitch and I will kill you right now". Tamsin snapped. Kenzi was like a mother to her when she came back. She was a hell of lot nicer than Bo had been lately. Up until Bo saved her from Massimo, she was sure the Succubus hadn't cared about her at all. But there was love in the hug they shared and it was there when they kissed in Brazenwood.
"Nobody's scared of a last life Valkyrie. You could get run over by a truck and die instantly. Speaking of which, what happened to your truck again? Isabeau laughed.
"What happened to your Doctor? Tamsin mocked back.
"Dr. Lewis to you, and she's safe. I can't say the same for you though". Isabeau smiled.
"It's time to take you to daddy. I need money and clothes that actually fit". Tamsin said.
"Look Mom. She's still pining over Bo. Her aura is as blinding as Dyson's. It is no wonder Lauren...wait". Isabeau said with her eyes flashing blue.
"Just kick her ass, or kill her, and be done with it". Aife laughed.
"That kiss in Brazenwood. You told Lauren didn't you? Isabeau asked angrily.
"Somebody had to. Bo needed to be single then". Tamsin said.
"Dumb bitch. I was in that relationship too". Isabeau snapped slowly stalking Tamsin.
"I will see you at the Dal, Isabeau. I'd wish you good luck but it would be pointless". Aife laughed as she passed by Tamsin.
"Bo can't beat me. We already tried that". Tamsin laughed.
"Bo has a weakness that I don't". Isabeau said as she lunged at the Valkyrie.
Dyson, Kenzi, Vex and Evony
"Ok that was bullshit". Kenzi snapped.
"We are going to have to work harder to get to Bo. Find a weakness, she can't resist". Dyson said.
"You mean like your balls? Evony laughed.
"We need to present a united front". Dyson said.
"Me? The Morrigan? Join two dipshits that had her mother on your hands and still lost control? Evony laughed.
"You want your compound back, and we want Bo back". Dyson said.
"Ok. Talk to me". Evony said.
