A/N: WARNING TORTURE SCENE in this chap.


Bo finally heard Tamsin touch down kicking up gravel skidding to a halt from a run and a couple seconds later Bo French kissed her lover and was refilled on her addictive Chi. She felt that Tammy had no bra through her shirt in the hug and wanted to take her RIGHT there.

Bo just cooed all giddy fully recharged, "Hiiiiiiiii"

Tamsin in her standard snarky self, scrunched her face and replied, "Miss me huh? The ONE and only person you can pull chi from to live?"

Lauren just smiled and knew Bo was in good hands but said to the Valkyrie, "Thanks Tamsin. Really."

Bo just barely acknowledged her draping her arms around Tamsin's neck and said, "Hey Lauren, please clean yourself up and see what Kendra and everyone is up to?"

"OK Bo," Lauren packed up and was busy stowing gear in her truck.

Tamsin peck Bo on the cheek and then not breaking her love eyes on Bo said to Lauren, "Can I get a double whip mocha, 2 expresso shots Vente to go, Doc?"

Lauren was just wiping her arms clean and smiled to herself saying, "I would like to Tamsin, but Moonbucks coffees tastes putrid. I… I suggest Tamsin you come to my lab for a perfect cup of coffee, my treat and I promise that you'll never go back."

Tamsin had a hard time concentrating at what Laruen said when Bo sneakily unsnapped her Valkyrie's pants and like an assassin, just unzipped her fly without peep. "Booooo," Tamsin warned. "NO Chi until I say so."

Bo pouted and just slid her hand in and cupped her naked core and murmured, "But I've had a hard day."

Tamsin pulled back but Bo pinched her folds between her long slender fingers causing her to moan. She stifled it however.

"Yea tell me a new one," Tamsin rebutted scrunching her face. "You will have my chi RATIONED out to you and being bad."

Bo split her lips apart inside her pants and in an instant Bo's fingers were sopping wet. "I don't think so my love. You CHEATED on me Tamsin and are you wet for ME or for BLAZE?"

Tamsin's jaw dropped and stuttered but let Bo massage her core more with her body leaning into it. What Tamsin wanted wasn't what her body wanted. "You SAID it was OK Bo! And it was … and accident since you worked me up and Blaze was …. Em cherry picking at that time."

Bo wagged her finger back and forth in disapproval though Tamsin's wet folds, "Uh huh. Tisk Tsik Tamsin. You can play, but I said you'd PAY. Cheating is cheating. I pay when I bang Lauren, now you'll pay for banging Blaze." Bo finished but hooking her in fingers into Tamsin's slit and hitting her spot she knew all too well. Her other hand ghosted up over his body to caress her breasts slowly making the way to her nipples.

Tamsin yelled, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! YES MISTRESS!"

Bo loved it when the snarky Tamsin submitted but slowed down and asked her, "Now Tammy. No need to call me Mistress yet, but can we talk?"

Tamsin growled and glanced down at Bo's hands, one of which was hidden in her pants.

Bo just shook her head proudly making a couple popping and sloshing sounds in her pants. "We can still talk. I like this just fine, by the way."

"NOW before I dominate you!" Tamsin began to mount Bo into a submission move.

Bo pouted and finally with a pop, Bo removed her hands and sat up with Tamsin.

"I love you Tamsin, unconditionally, do you love me?" Bo asked meekly.

"Oh course I love you Bo, unconditionally and THAT is why I didn't want to dance with Blaze more. I'm…. I'm yours Bo. Unwavering and faithfully so," Tamsin decreed.

Bo was moved, Tamsin didn't miss a beat but what really made her gush was when Tamsin pleaded grabbing a hold of Bo's hands.

"I'm so, so, so sorry about Blaze…. It was an accident and will NEVER happen again," Tamsin effusively confessed.

"Just like Dyson?" Bo teased but Tamsin took is seriously which was odd but was a view into her heart.

"Yes just like him …. So so sooooo sorry. I was dreaming about you and well, my body was on auto pilot."

Bo saw the guilt radiating from Tamsin and stroked her cheek, "Just like when Blaze found you?"

"Yes," Tamsin bit her bottom lip.

Bo then switch gears and cooed, "Does my evil Valkyrie need to be punished?"

Tamsin was all too eager to get back into Bo's good graces and nodded.

Bo just pushed her more, for she loved to push her buttons, "I can't hear you."

"Yes Bo, Please…. Punish me for being unfaithful," Tamsin whispered.

"LOUDER," Bo teased and loved Tamsin on the run but again Tamsin took is seriously. "So that Lauren can hear."

Tamsin like rabbit hopped to her knees and pleaded full on, "I've been unfaithful to you when I bedded .. no fucked Dyson and Blaze! It was with the best of intentions but inexcusable to you my soul mate. It won't happen again… and .. and whatever it takes, please let me be yours!"

Surprise registered on Bo's face. Tamsin's heart never wandered this whole time but she set the bar of love much much higher for herself even without Bo asking. Strangely Tamsin set the bar for the succubus really low.

Bo began to well up, "But I sleep around and that's not fair to you."

Tamsin replied with a lop sided smirk, "You're a succubus, you need to feed. It's your nature. I won't change you and demand you to be something you aren't. I accept you for who you are."

Bo just stuttered, "But…. I mess up and I could hurt you like I did when I was poisoned."

"I trust you without fault and when you do mess up I forgive," Tamsin proclaimed.

"We're total opposites," Bo croaked doubting how they ever got their relationship to work in the first place.

"I have hope for the both of us and we'll get through this," Tamsin answered crisply with a smile.

A tear escaped Bo's eye and Tamsin wiped it away. Bo was so moved that Tamsin, someone trained to run away from a bond, knew what love was all this time. It was composed of hope, acceptance, forgiveness, determination to never give up on one another. Also it was sacrifice which she had given Bo over and over already.

Bo whimpered, "Where do you get off being so perfect?" Bo lamented then continued, "Think you've seen everything ….. But then you see you." Bo referenced the bathtub encounter but this time roles were reversed.

Tamsin darted her glance away momentarily knowing where Bo pulled that line from but finally stated, "I NOT perfect Bo, and I'm not all good. There's a reason why I'm an outcast even to my own kind."

Bo cupped Tamsin's chin and closed the distance and replied, "Yes you are perfect. To me you are."

To even be remotely told that she was perfect to her face by the one person she cared about was beyond moving and all she could say with tear drops running down her face was a shaky denial, "noooo"

Bo slowly closed the gap between then nearly kissing feeling the heat from one another and replied, "Your eyes are green but change to blue when you love."

Tamsin didn't know that. It wasn't like she looked in the mirror to confirm but had to take her word for it but asked bewildered in a soft hiss, "Bo…. No … what are you doing?"

Bo touched Tamsin chest and then stated, "Your heart is a cold impregnable fortress, and yet you know all about love and only share it with me, an effed up succubus that's terrible at it."

Tamsin's huffed out a laugh even with tears hitting the ground faster not believing this was happening.

"History says you're dark and evil, but I've only seen a virtuous Valkyrie that too good to belong to the light or dark… The history has to be wrong but it can't be. You are both virtuous and wicked, both but neither. You shouldn't be. Shouldn't be real. But here you are," Bo concluded kissing Tamsin back even tasting the salt from her tears.

Tamsin broke the kiss resting her forehead on Bo's and confessed through her hitched breathing, "I'm a n… nomad Bo. I… I've never stayed put before …. I don't belong."

Bo stroked her cheek and finally reassured, "Wherever we are YOU DO belong. You belong HERE with ME," Bo lips touched Tamsin's.

Tamsin had to kiss Bo back and it was not Tamsin that was so taken by the succubus but wanted this moment to go on and on. Most of all, she really wanted to bond to fully form, for after a minute Tamsin broke the kiss still wiping tears away and looked down to the floor and admitted, "Bo….. I don't know. The full bond isn't fully forming. I do love you and I accept you for all you are but… but… it's just not happening."

Bo gently brought her chin up with a big smile and said slowly, "We have time Tamsin."

Tamsin in defeat stated, "Maybe your friends were right, that … that we weren't …." Tamsin was doing to say, 'meant to be'. After all Lauren was the one that said the bond not forming was all her fault and hers alone. Bo loved JUST fine after all.

What did distract both of them was that Lauren was blowing her nose in apparent tears of what seemed to be joy at the moving occasion.

Bo casted and annoyed glance at Lauren and Tamsin looked away ashamed since they forgot Lauren was there this whole time.

Bo just held this moment by returning her full attention to her Valkyrie but mentioned to her thrall, "Lauren, a moment please and check on Kendra?"

Lauren nodded and partly walked away but mentioned without looked back, "The bond ISN'T a perfect science and there isn't much written about it. But in time it will form. From… from the texts I have read, it seems to go faster when you not only love one another, but communicate everything about the parameters of HOW your relationship has to or will work. T… Tamsin, I…"

Lauren resisted but the thrall was pushing her hard to say the truth. She just found it safer to just leave which was per Bo's instructions anyway.

Bo observed this and said to Lauren's back, "What is it you want to say Lauren? Just spit it out and say your mind. You won't get that again."

Lauren was stuck and she resisted even more to the point where the thrall was hurting her but whipped around in anger which was surpassed by the mostly thrall and finally grunted out with her fists clenched by her side but still held a force smile, "Tamsin, I'm…. NOT sorry for … what I said to you in Trick's library ... But I ….. I…. have to treat you like my sister while I serve Bo. I… RESENT it, all of this, and as moving as what you 2 have now. I HATE both of you. You need me Bo. FINE. May I ask your plan for me after you dethrone Evony?"

Bo honestly didn't know. She hadn't thought that far.

Lauren just finally turned to Tamsin, "Tamsin, I told you the bond not forming is your fault. Well it IS in a way. If I tell you HOW to get the bond to form RIGHT here and right now, after my use is done, I want you to kill me quickly."

Tamsin was taken off-guard by this request and exchanged unsure glances between Bo and Lauren.

Bo just coolly replied, "NO, you tell us NOW what we need. You have no power over us the moment you raped me. Your life is MINE Lauren don't forget that so there is NO deal making here."

Lauren resisted and after several seconds she was whimpering in pain just standing in place and after a minute she collapsed to her knees and then to the ground writing in and screaming in agony. The effect of a thrall was that the thrall would feel increasing pain the more they didn't comply and it would only stop then they did.

Lauren knew that being a thrall meant but she wasn't going to give Tamsin her that LAST piece of information. YES, the thrall would make her treat Tamsin as a sister, but she still had the right to omit things. The question was how long could she hold out? That really hurt Lauren was how cruel the pain from the thrall was as it sent jolts of pain through her body. Her head felt like it was going to explode soon. HOW COULD BO DO THIS TO HER? This was not the lover she once knew. Bo use to bring her love, but now, Bo brought the pain.

Tamsin WANTED Laruen to suffer for what she did to her, the partial bond was still there while Tamsin was in 'alone' on the park with Blaze off in the distance but nearby.

She flashed back to that moment and it was her writhing in excreting pain with every effing kiss, caress, and misdirected 'I love you'. All Tamsin knew was at the time, she wanted to cut her own heart out since it burned her so badly when Lauren made Bo state who she really loved. 23 times to be exact. How did she know? Every time Bo said it, Tamsin felt she was being burned at the stake in the inferno of hell. Fracking backstabber. She KNEW that Lauren made Bo repeat it several times in an effort to break or weaken the bond.

It was only after Bo left to find Kenzi that the torture stopped HOURS LATER. Tamsin still felt the pain but it was dull. It was a good thing Blaze took all her weapons away.

Even in the darkest of moments, Tamsin dug deep into her soul and did was she promised Bo.

As hard as it was to do, she had to give her UNCONDITIONAL love.

At that time, Tamsin had cried so much her eyes were blood shot and her voice raspy from screaming so much. Blaze knew to stay back because Tamsin was using her war cry the whole time.

Tamsin used everything she had left and then some at that time to log into Lauren's network to review camera footage to ascertain was really happened. It was a good thing to in the end.

Lauren won't last long Tamsin noted snapping her attention back to the present. Blood was now dripping from her nose. Serves her right.

Bo smirk maniacally. Lauren was going to PAY for what she did to them. Now she could get some level of justice since Lauren taking her own life was the easy way out.

Did she feel remorse?

No.

She felt NOTHING for her former lover, Lauren. At this point, the doctor was nothing more than her little bitch.
