Now That You're Gone, I Can Fly Chapter 80: If Bo's red, your effing, a lost girl fanfic

Kiko slid next to Dyson with a playful smirk, "So let's work out the fine print of our partnership ok?"

Dyson was a little apprehensive about this but Kiko leaned in and took his arm to help him loosen up, "So Kendra seduced you huh? Well same here but she didn't even know it in my case.. So now you know I don't put out. Let's talk about the hours and pay."

Dyson did a throaty chuckle, "The pay is terrible, the hours are long and the coffee tastes like jet fuel. And I don't put out either."

Kiko chuckled but oddly with Dyson's past he probably did but stayed on topic, "I'll need flex hours."

"Sure. And I run ops."

Kiko nodded and added, "I can still take side jobs and also I get to use my own gear"

"OK"

"You'll do all the Fae paper work."

"Don't get too cocky"

"Well that blows," Kiko looked a pouted trying to get what she wanted.

Dyson's head went right into the gutter though since Kiko's lips wrapped on his wolf was still fresh in his mind from earlier.

Kiko's knew exactly what she was doing but she just couldn't help being dominant. Dyson could easily dominate her however, but a mischievous thought came to mind. She could control his wolf with the ring on it. As a matter of fact so could Kendra and Alicia, but were they up for it? She was willing however to practice. If she got good, she'd OWN him. No spell to make his desire go away. It was soooo much better to allow him to lust but stop this wolf from executing. She could hurt him, but she knew for Kennie's sake and their relationship, she'd better not. That of course didn't mean that she couldn't toy with him to a degree.

Dyson got up to got up with a tiny smirk ready to leave, "We'll do just fine. See you at 9 tomorrow morning at the precinct?"

"11, I'm a night owl."

"Gainfully employed at night?" Dyson turned to leave knowing full well it had a double meaning.

The assassin was quick to reply in jest, "I make people's heart race for a VERY different reason Dyson."

Dyson smirked widened and nodded. He was about to go to the bar to see Mark and Trick, but asked Kiko, "Do you want to wait until them come back down?

"Yea, if we show up at the bar, we may interrupt our girlfriends' flow."

"True," Dyson replied and strode to the small bar pulling out two bottles of beer. He tossed Kiko one but Kiko had a idea and tacked on seeing Tamsin stealthily sneak over to the big oak door Bo and Lauren disappeared through, "Hmmm I think they want some privacy."

Dyson added after musing for a moment, "We can go to the roof of the Dal for some air and well a view of the town."

"OK," Kiko replied tersely.

"Tamsin?" Dyson whispered to her in passing.

"Got it Dog Breath. I'll tell yer harem where you are if they come looking," Tamsin smirked looking Kiko up and down mischievously.

After Dyson looked away, Kiko followed but just gaited sexily just to tease her.

Tamsin did have to admit Kiko worked that ass and Dyson was in big trouble. Like her, Kiko could turn off and on her wiles and was good at it.

Once on the roof with the chilly overcast evening air, without a word, they opened their respective bottles and clinked them together at the neck and took a sip.

Several minutes passed without a single word. This was weird Dyson thought, but it seemed that Kiko and him did have something in common. They both preferred not to talk to one another. It wasn't out of spite, it was just they were comfortable enough to do so.

Dyson also was still digesting his son with Vex which was unexpected but that'd be a bridge to be crossed when Mark came home from work.

Kiko was still coming to terms that her love was leaving for a time, but distance made the heart grow fonder she believed. It looked overcast and it started to drizzle a little, but she didn't mind, they were both under an awning.

Forced conversation seemed to be the in thing for Kendra and Alicia who talked about the trail and Kendra's trail experience, which was minimal.

Kendra hated to beat around the bush and interjected, nearly blurting out but reaffirmed latching onto Alicia's hand, "I meant what I said down there. I've got no business in your relationship with him." Kendra glanced down in defeat and noted that Alicia took her hand back slowly how now dead panned to listen. "I forced my way into his life …. used him like a tool, but it backfired on me. I don't know if ..."

Alicia cut in and added off topic, "He loves you, you know that?"

"He told you that? It's is hormones and our past as friends that I abused. I should've never happened," Kendra shook her head in disgust.

"No, he never did," Alicia answered but got a tensed up and a little upset, her voice beginning to waver, "He really never talked about you when he was on the trail with me. He told me that you worked with him period and told me things along those lines. I just assumed you were work friends."

"Huh?" Kendra cocked her head to the side looking confused.

"But the way he acted around you," Alicia sharply look away even more upset, "Never mind."

Silence.

Kendra knew that look of extreme duress and anger. She was somehow shutting down even with the help of a spell. This was bad.

Alicia snapped her accusing gaze at Kendra and finally clarified, "I'd be within my right mind to slap you, but I… I can't. Dyson…. I KNOW love when I see it, I had it with Kevin remember?"

Kendra saw the slow boil and knew to deescalate it, "Look, I gave my word to Eric, my husband… when I was human, to not … be attached to Dyson. I hold to that."

Alicia glared at her raising her voice in anger, "That's NOT the problem Kendra! He somehow loved you like that way he loves … well loved Bo! You can promise all you want, but Dyson will dote after you… and to think we had something!"

The cop had no real defense for that. She didn't know how Dyson felt about Alicia but she just kept going on scooting out of the table ready to leave. Kendra followed but Alicia shut down but finally said what she needed to say when she, with betrayal scrawled over her face, spat out, "I don't' know what's REAL anymore! Dyson made me promise to come back to him after my hike, but WHY WOULD I? Sure, I can do that, but come back to WHAT! You have him WRAPPED around your finger! Then… then there's Bo… a SUCCUBUS!… and the list probably goes on and on!"

"I AM KIKO'S!" Kendra vehemently yelled back with conviction with patron's looking on.

The human then strode out of the bar, Kendra follow suit, if this was the effect of the spell then shit, Alicia wouldn't even be talking to her in her normal state. "Look Alicia! Don't do this. Throw away relationships like this."

It was drizzling with an overcast sky.

Alicia whirlled around and warned, "STOP following me Kendra! This is the best I can do. I'll come back and see Dyson ok! I.. I just don't know when ….. I fucking need SPACE!"

"Soooooooooooo do Iiiiiiiiiiiii!" Kendra yelled back, "You THINK I WANT THIS!"

"YEA! You got Kiko and Dyson to fall all over themselves for you! I don't want to hurt you… but YOU are hurting me!" Alicia screamed with watery eyes.

Kendra was about to curse her out but composed what she needed to say going toe to toe with her, "I TRIED to do EVERYTHING to save me marriage with Eric and my baby! But I screwed that up. I have nothing now and I'm still trying to find my place."

The human shook her head and calmly relayed after taking a few breaths, "So self centered…. You you you… YOU have Kiko and Dyson. YOU 3 can sort it out. They both love you and I think Kiko and Dyson will be fine since they won't burn their relationship with one another out of a risk of losing you. I KNOW what I see. I don't need to be a succubus to see that. Also I'm.. I'm STILL trying to figure out WHY you want me to STAY and all I can come up with is to be some sort of stop gap to distract Dyson from banging you."

It was true to a degree. Kendra just wanted Dyson to be happy and yes, Dyson loved her but she had hope that Dyson could love another. Kendra hesitated but tacked on in an effort to stop her to leaving, "Look, if I leave with you, I'll give me time to find myself too. Dyson and Kiko will hold for us ok?"

"Until Dyson bangs Kiko," Alicia blurted out to hurt Kendra back.

Kendra knew she was just biting back from all the pain. Sure Kiko drew the line with Dyson but she felt that Kiko was one hundred percent faithful to her, but even then, she needed to give Kiko space too. If Kiko really loved her, and she did by coming back and fixing her, then nothing would change if she when on that hike. But Kiko and Dyson? Would she be ok with that. Was she open? In a split second decision Kendra knew that it HAD to be OPEN since Alicia's argument and hurt stemmed from being monogamous. Bo proposed it and Alicia didn't accept it and oddly nor did she consider it fully. Now was not that time to vacillate or waver.

"Are you will to give an open relationship a REAL try?" Kendra growled sternly. "I AM. If Kiko and Dyson somehow fall in bed, I AM happy for them. I think Bo is right, there is more than enough love to go around."

Alica lunged and planted her lips on Kendra's wrapping her arms around her to hold her in tight. Kendra was backing up and pushing her away initially but it felt like Kendra was just tolerating her.

Kendra and no idea what got into Alicia, the kiss was filled with anger and a grudge to boot. This was a test of some sort.

Finally Alicia and Kendra pushed off one another forcefully.

Alicia clarified her intentions, "I may be into girls, but not you. So give up your charade. It's bad enough that you have a threesome, but don't put me in there as a third wheel."

Kendra noted Alicia storm off again but she yelled to her following her across the road, "Oh yea? So TELL me that you didn't think about falling in bed with Kiko!"

"She had an ulterior motive … some detective you are."

"I KNOW what I saw earlier too! You had sex with me, but it was a little more with Kiko."

Alicia didn't reply and just stormed off but all of a sudden Kenzi sprinted to them from a side alley way, Kenzi, out of breath blocked both of them and was fully aware of the situation. She got her information from Arin and of course Arin was connected via the link to Tamsin. "It's soooooo cool!" Kenzi just admitted with glee trembling with excitement. "The great out doors! You two? You are still going right?"

Kendra and Alicia darted a glance to one another but demurred. Right now it was a big negative.

"I don't think that'd be a good idea," Alicia finally answered after some tense silence.

"I… I agree," Kendra relented. If Alicia needed to blow off steam, then let her. She tried in earnest after all.

Kenzi pouted turning more toward Alicia, "Well, I think we all could use a little space and time to think. I still need it after Hale and…. Well…. I think with you being the backpacking-meister and all, you could teach me and Kendra too? I lived in Spain for a bit off grid, but I always wanted to explore."

Kendra didn't say a word. It looked like Kenzi was trying to patch things up and somehow she had current information.

Alicia took a little step back. Kenzi didn't deserve her ire and just wanted ot leave. "Sorry."

Kenzi did her best puppy dog stare, "Can we at least try? I promise I don't snore."

"You guys don't even have supplies I bet and I'm leaving tomorrow," Alicia shook her head throwing up road blocks.

Kenzi perked up taking both their arms and stated joyfully between them, "We have plastic and a little time. Care to help me .. well us find a tent that matches my mascara?"

Kendra finally added moving things along, "I think there is a camp store and surplus store within a couple miles of here."

"Oh ok," Kenzi said excitedly whipping out here phone pushing a couple buttons. "UberGreat ride….. ACTIVATE!"

Alicia and Kendra were stuffed next to one another in the back seat of the ride minutes later. It was there Alicia finally gave up. She needed to live in the moment and company didn't hurt on a trail for safety reasons. She just wished it was better company than Kendra. At least Kendra seemed to be open to this arrangement. At least now she'd be able to see why Dyson was so enamored by her.

Bo and Lauren, mortal enemies filtered into the small study with a small desk surrounded by bookcases filled to the brink with papers and disorganized texts in piles.

Bo leaned up against the desk and motioned for Lauren to sit in front of her and she did so hesitantly. By reading Lauren which she got really good at from their past history, she was extremely nervous.

Silence was so loud the the tick tock of the clock in the room was deafening.

Bo was at in impasse. The woman who she loved the world over not only dumped her twice, but betrayed her trust but wanted to know how honest Lauren could be but before she could even utter a word, Lauren stuttered, "I'm sorry babe. I just wanted you for myself and… and I it was an accident that I drugged you during our altercation. But I saw an opening and I took it. I … I just didn't want to lose you."

Bo trembled with Lauren calling her 'babe' again but with her glaze to the floor still finally replied carefully holding in all the anger, "Lauren, we haven't spoken ever since that day we mixed blood to make you my permanent thrall. To me, the Lauren I knew and loved bled to death taking her own life. In your mind, I'd be yours or I'd belong to no one. Save that, you refused to be there to see it. Lauren, something changed inside you. You use to be happy when I was happy even if that went against US being together. I LOVED you….. and you LOVED me even when Tamsin told me that she did care for me unconditionally at your clinic. You knew Tamsin's depth of love for me and I was in love with her and you were great. You supported me, not as a friend, not as a sister, but someone who loved me so much that she was willing to let me go if that was the only path to my happiness."

Lauren sank down into her seat knowing that a 'but' was coming and it wasn't good.

"THEN, you did what Trick and Dyson use to do to me. Hold stuff back from me out like I was some child. And then you took it a step further you… you plotted against Tamsin and me. You wanted to tear us apart by any and all means necessary. You even got Evony, Blaze and Trick to be a cog in your machine to kill our relationship and in the process you not only hurt me… you hurt Tamsin. And to think I trusted you to know better."

"I'm sorry Bo. I know I can't do anything to fix what happened in the past.. Sh .. shall we get this over with Bo?" Lauren offered standing up, "Let's step outside, I refuse to get this room covered in blood."

"SIT DOWN!" Bo glared at her with her eye alight in a searing red glow. Lauren didn't give to shits about what she had to say it felt but then maybe their relationship was irrecoverable. In a lower octave voice Bo continued furious that Lauren didn't care or couldn't grasp the gravity of her wrongs. "I never truly knew how Tamsin felt when she found Arin sleeping with me since I thralled during our fight but I do now."

Bo's whole body began to glow red and continued, "when you spilled attractant on me to make be only love you, I did NOTHING since I LOVED you. When you immediately cheated on me with Suzie, I didn't kill her or you because I LOVED YOU."

Bo then marched into Lauren's personal space grabbing her and then pulling her to her feet, "THEN you made me admit to only loving you, I did so even under the influence because I YOU KNOW WHY."

Lauren when muttered under her breath since she knew her end was near, "Oh shit." But at least their accounts would be settled.

Bo then hoisted her up like a rag doll and slamming then pinned her brutally to Trick's wall by one hand and then decreed, "Then.. THEN you put Tamsin in unbearable pain with EVERY admission and YOU KNEW better. You tortured and nearly killed her. BLAZE had to ensure Tamsin didn't have a way to hurt or kill herself. You .. you FUCKING LOW LIFE. And to THINK, I LOVED YOU but do to me what you want, but to Tamsin, my bonded mate and one and only love ….. HELL awaits you but you're not going out easy!"

Lauren gulped hard in fear. Bo was so enraged and now she knew why her enemies feared her. Also the EASY way she knew was Bo sucking her chi dry. It would kill her but she'd feel pleasure as it was happening. She had no idea what awaited her and for once she FEARED her lover.
