A/N: Valkubus Smut in this chapter. Starts with and ends with ***
Hump Day approached Kendra upon reaching the open work area and formally stated, "Captain, we've indexed all the bank surveillance vids for the past couple of weeks for banks that meet the MO of our unsubs, we came up with 8 in which Jane Doe show up."
"However," he mentioned nodding to Carrot Top who put the map of the banks on the screen, but 2 were highlighted,"2 of these she visited twice. One of the bank CSRs stated that she had a general question about what times were safety deposit box hours during the week. The CSR didn't get a name."
"OK."
Jane then spoke up, "I also tracked a report of an armored car theft a couple days ago. District 71 PD stated that they were unable to recover it since its GPS was disabled. It is also the same company that makes pickups at, Nation's bank off of Mass and General as well at the one off 25th and General. They will probably use it most likely as the means of transport in and maybe out."
"Shit," Kendra let out but her glance went over to Maura and Jane who had poker faces and stammered out, "sorry for my French. So not only do they plan to come in with Kevlar and Class C body armor, They will have a vehicle which makes them almost impossible to stop without significant bloodshed."
Maura then stated uneasily, "That is making an ASSUMPTION that the unsubs that want to rob the bank are the same unsubs that stole said vehicle."
Everyone just looked at Maura like she was on another planet.
Jane than turned to Maura pointing at herself and the others in the room in flippant response, "Well *WE* the detectives make educated guesses all the time."
Drake was working close with Kenzi pointing things out to her when she shot her hand up in the air and proclaimed in an almost yell scaring Maura with the sudden outburst, "I *AM* OFFICALLY AWESOME."
Kenzi then looked at everyone and mentioned coolly, "What? Just stating a fact ya know." Drake fist bumped her and she just nodded beaming with pride and then turned to her computer and put up a picture of Jane Doe in the background on the large overhead LCD.
"Jane Doe and our unsubs stayed far away from bank, heck even street cameras. But the street cams DID show Jane Doe walking into neighborhood streets. But lookie what I found on a Youtube vid clip that is getting lots of hits. Looks like a bunch of kids in the neighborhood doing tricks on their skate boards caught THIS on their GoFasterPro helmet cam," Kenzi played it and it showed Jane Doe getting into a car.
The video showed a bunch of guys using their GoFasterPro Superhero3 to get a better view of the subject since they were checking her out before their friend got on his skateboard at the top of the steps and jumped onto the rails sliding down gracefully until the bottom which made his board abruptly stop. It then showed him falling off his board but landing on the rails straddling it in the end.
"Boardslide gone waaaaay wrong," Kenzi clarified.
All the men in the room grimaced in pain and even Hump Day said, "OWCH! Major fail and in the twig and cherries too. WAIT freeze that. Look, the plate came into focus briefly and so did 2 male unsubs in the car."
Chica clicked away and announced, "Plate is registered to ….. it belongs to Peso Rent-A-Car. Trying to access to their reservation system now."
"I just got in," Carrot Top told her innocently clicking away, "I'm platinum peso patron and MAY have needed to check my rewards balance since it isn't displayed on their customer portal accurately."
"Awwww. I hope that boy gets a checkup with this doctor at the very least an urgent care facility. Blunt force trauma of that magnitude may cause a sub dermal hematoma not to mention shock to his organ. Specifically the gonads," Maura stated matter of fact but it seemed that everyone else was still moving forward.
"Enhancing the image on guys in the car and our Jane Doe." Kenzi stated.
"Oh. Well look who it is," Jane announced pointing to the driver's side, "Manual Morales. Do we have enough to run our Jane and John Doe?"
"Running a facial match on the other 2," Hump Day added sitting down at a workstation.
"Rental car was put under a fake ID. The ID, which doesn't even look remotely like anyone on the screen, looks forged judging by the scan that was done. It's probably a dead end," Carrot top interjected, "but we'll chase this rabbit hole to the end."
"Manuel Morales, not showing up in any hits in this region, no credit card use, no hotels or properties, nada. Freaking pendejo," Chica vocalized frustrated.
Jane looked at the screen as one match came up and vocalized it, "Lieutenant Samuel Matherson, SpecOps. Still active. I know someone on active duty as well that can get a bead on him and run him down."
Jane walked away to the corner of a room and pulled out her cell phone but whoever she was calling it was going to voicemail, "Hey Casey, it's Jane. I need to get info a Lientenant Gabriel J. Matherson with special ops. He is one of our suspects we are trying to track down. Call me. Thanks."
While Jane was talking, Kendra noted to all, "Crap, our Jane Doe is coming up at 23 possible matches. 4 of which are in this area or have ties to Massachusetts. It looks like she had some plastic surgery."
"Wait," Maura interjected, "Kenzi play her walking to the car on a separate screen and loop the feed."
Kenzi did so and Maura approached the screen. "Look at her gait. She looks in her twenties but is suffering from that looks like a mild case of arthritis in the right foot. Her muscular structure shows that she is an athlete, maybe in a sport … and going out on the limb here, she is a serious runner maybe a sprinter or maybe former one."
Kendra was impressed at Maura's observation. No many doctors could tell that immediately at first glance." That was why Jane brought her along she mused. Maura was a human encyclopedia and Jane was more of the muscle.
Hump Day then added, "Well, Jane Doe, second from the right made it to the Olympic finals but didn't qualify. And YES, her name is Jane Doe. Janie Marissa Doe to be exact. Oh look brown belt in BJJ, private Combat Readiness Instruction, and has several registered firearms. Looks like our suspect we may want to visit. Chica?"
"Awww isn't that sweet," Kenzi sang observing the end of the video in the background with Gabe and Janie kissing as she entered the car, "Jane and Gabriel, sittin' in a tree, Kay Eye Es Es Eye En Gee. First comes love, then comes marriage …."
Maura dead panned to Jane who was just rejoining them with a confused expression obviously overhearing Kenzi singing and reached out to rub her forearm to reassure her, "Jane, we're taking about ANOTHER couple. Gabe and Janie, our other unsubs."
"Oh," Jane smiled sheepishly, "Well," Jane stated clearing her throat, "Colonel Casey will get back to me, in the meantime, do we have ANYTHING on these guys?"
"Not much more than that, they are running off of cash it looks like, which makes it harder to track," Kendra replied. "Chica got anything on our suspects?"
"No. They are running off assumed names and cash," Chica added.
"Well, we only have a couple hours left until the bank opens, put a BOLO out on who we have thus far. We are still looking for other unsubs and Janie doesn't look like the ex-mil, rifle type. It doesn't match the MO. She just may be a lookout or just aiding them," Kendra analyzed.
"Wait," Jane interjected, "WHEN do both these banks get their cash picked up by the armored car normally?"
Kenzi then perked up, "It's the evening before closing for both. I remember seeing that in the footage."
"OK I see where you are going Detective," Hump Day stated, "This may be an evening hit since an AM hit would ruin the element of surprise."
"Yeppers!"
"You know," Drake said, "If they had enough fire power, they could hit BOTH banks. If this company services both of the banks, it isn't a stretch to see that the one armored car will service both banks at roughly the same time."
"Mandrake Root is right. They stop at Mass and General first and then the one off 25th and General. 10 minutes apart," Kenzi said pulling up the map for all to see.
Kendra looked down, and tapped her front foot, "OK we have to get them to come up us. We post ourselves at both banks and Hump Day, get me an armor car… make it 2 … and get the APC (Armored Personnel Carrier) ready and find a way to hid it ok? We don't need to spook them out. Carrot Top, talk to your 'friends', see if they got something that is armor piercing that can go through an armored vehicles."
"You mean Anti-Tank rounds Cap?" Carrot Top stated with an evil grin.
Kendra just nodded and then ordered to the rest of the team filing in as ordered, "We got work ladies! So let's get crackin."
Bo slowly opened her eyes and was in total bliss. Tamsin was in a word, remarkable. That was probably some of the best sex she had ever had. Not only that, Tamsin was honest and loved her. Bo guessed the fight they had in which she told Tamsin angrily to communicate did hit home. How she wished she delivered it better but it was water under the bridge now. Bo felt more than luckly to have Tamsin in her life. If someone told Bo this 6 months or more ago, she would have laughed it off as some twisted joke but her she was.
Bo felt the place next to her and it was empty but before she could panic, she smelt the distinct odor of breakfast. But more so, it smelt unmistakably like Lauren's breakfast casserole which was one of her all-time favorites.
'Was Lauren here?', Bo thought since Tamsin didn't look like the gourmet chief type. Bo's mind ran in circles as she tried to look for a robe but instead put back on the night shirt she had before. It wasn't hers, but Bo chuckled to herself when it had a halo on it held up by horns. It was so like Tamsin. She was evilly good.
Bo cautiously tip toed to the door and opened it ever so stealthily and peeked out.
It was just Tamsin setting up the table for breakfast and she peered out more to see if Lauren was around, but no sign of her.
Tamsin, who had redressed in loose shorts and a t-shirt looked up and saw Bo looking out of her room like some sort of robber trying to avoid detection. Why, Tamsin asked herself, but for some reason she just couldn't connect the dots. Not anymore. No matter, she just smiled at Bo and walked over to her and took her by hand and led her to the table.
"Don't get all weird on me Bo. Hey," Tamsin said pulling a chair out for Bo who just sat down a little unsure of herself, "I cooked something I thought you may like Bo. It's called the brunch egg bake. Lots of cheese, eggs, veggies, ham and Lauren's secret ingredient, fresh minced bacon bits."
"Wow Tamsin," Bo smiled brightly knowing that Lauren must have taught her, "I'm impressed. So you and Lauren spent time in the kitchen together?" Bo did however want to know how well they got along while she was at her place.
"Well while I was recovering at her place from my amnesia one of the things Lauren INSISTED I do to recover was to cook," Tamsin said tilting and scrunching her face.
Bo smirked and then asked inquisitively, "So Tamsin, did you get any memories back when you were Lauren?"
Tamsin took a bite of food and swallowed it, "Emmm, I remembered bits and pieces but Kendra and Arin filled me in on everything I needed to know but nothing beats the real thing, but now I remember everything all thanks to you," Tamsin said with a click but against her own will continued sarcastically and huffed out a laugh, "And to think I hesitated."
That last comment took Bo off guard. Why would Tamsin NOT want to get her memory back Bo thought but decided to pursue it hoping Tamsin wouldn't shut down or deflect.
"Why would you not want all your memories back?" Bo asked innocently.
Tamsin tried with all her might to not elaborate, keep her mouth shut, or to say something to deflect it. Lying right now was even on the table but Tamsin left that demon behind a long time ago.
She cursed internally however brief. Being Bo's thrall meant that she was 100% obedient to Bo's wishes, commands and even queries. She was forced to give Bo everything even if she wasn't ready to share but then after Bo literally screaming at her in an argument in Valhalla that she was terrible at communication, maybe this predicament was ok.
With a pained looked scrawled across her face, Tamsin then admitted, "I found Lauren and she turned out to be a great person even after trying to dig up dirt on her. I completed my promise to you. But…. But YOU where the only person holding me here."
Tamsin resisted more even as a wave a joy came to her from admitting the statement before. "I needed to forget … you … forget us…. Because …. Be… because I was… AM … dying…. One of the walked dead … "
She had to think harder trying to put thought together now as she frowned slightly, "You don't start a relationship with someone that will be gone by the time you blink and… and …. And"
Tamsin looked away sharply putting her hand on her month, there was just no stopping her from spilling all her secrets out to Bo.
Bo got up quickly rush to Tamsin and hugged her, then murmured into her ear, "Come with me to the couch. OK?"
Tamsin felt flush as she walked over to the couch with Bo.
Bo sat on the couch on one end and stretched her legs the length of it with room for Tamsin to sit down in between and lean on her. She knew this was an unpleasant topic but it was unusual that Tamsin's expressions were vacillating from pain to caring and that did bother her. She was doing this on purpose. Tamsin was telling her everything.
Honestly.
While refreshing, Bo didn't want to stress her out. Tamsin was in her arms, and Bo rested her head on her shoulder.
They sat there in comfortable silence for a time as Bo kissed her Valkyrie on the cheek gently then planted kissed moving to the back of her neck clearing her blond lock along the way.
It hurt Bo to know that Tamsin tried desperately to let go and was doing it for her. "Did you hate me for doing something wrong?" Bo asked in confirmation murmuring into her ear. She stroked Tamsin's upper arm to comfort her.
Tamsin felt a euphoric high being held by her and just kept telling Bo what she needed to know truthfully. "No Bo, I love you. You didn't do anything wrong to intentionally hurt me. I just wanted you to be happy and give you someone who could give that to you better than I."
Bo read between the lines and then asked, "Only you can give me the comfort and peace I desire. No one else. Did I ever hurt you unintentionally then?"
Tamsin tried her hardest not to answer that question, but found herself saying flatly, "Yes, when you kissed Lauren at the church."
"What?" Bo asked. She kissed a lot of people especially during feedings.
Tamsin normally wouldn't have clarified but just being with Bo was all she needed now. For that, she huffed out a laugh and gave up the ghost which she knew was inevitable.
"I had no idea what the Valkyrie bond meant before since I felt I could avoid it. I also thought being fallen exempted me from that fate, but it wasn't so. Bo, we are almost fully bonded from what I can tell and it only gets stronger with time. It may be stronger than love even," Tamsin calmly relayed pausing but continuing.
"You can fall out of love, but for a Valkyrie it never happens once fully bonded from what I read. We can feel each other but more than that, the Valkyrie automatically tries to compensate for weaknesses of the other partner. The main reason why Valkyries avoid the bond like the plague is because if their partner cheats or falls out of love with them, the Valkyrie will 'pay' for making a foolish choice. Bonded Valkyries feel unbearable pain when their partner's heart is … ummm … moved by another," Tamsin felt lucky that she wasn't looking at Bo but resting on her behind her. She didn't know if she could take facing Bo with this type of conversation.
She briefly remembered feeling pain with Bo kissing Lauren but also remembered feeling betrayed. Those were powerful emotions but being Bo's thrall, it took the edge off and Tamsin could move on.
"I'm so sorry Tamsin about kissing Lauren. Look I won't do it again ok? It's over between Lauren and me. Wait, so every time I was sleeping or feeding with someone else you felt pain?" Bo asked holding her, tightly tucking her head behind Tamsin's shoulder to shield her from facing the fact she cheated on Tamsin but also asking for forgiveness.
Bo knew she was totally in the wrong for doing this to her. Now was a question on how to fix it and if Tamsin had enough forgiveness left for her.
Tamsin huffed out a laugh knowing that Bo was try to find a boundary but she had already made it clear. She no longer resisted at this point. There was really no way to spare Bo's feelings now.
"No silly. You can feed all you want. Have massive orgies, but LUST and LOVE are 2 very different things. When you feed, it involves lust, so I never felt pain, but Lauren," Tamsin paused knowing that she was about to hurt Bo. There was just no way around it being a thrall.
Tamsin finally just let out exasperated slumping into Bo more in utter defeat, "I felt excruciating pain in the church. For a moment it was worse than any pain I felt in all my life times. You …. LOVE or LOVED Lauren but somehow chose me instead and…. I …. I was inexplicably drawn to you. I fell in love with you too. The bond started to form as a result."
Bo felt horrible and buried her face into Tamsin's shoulder more. The more she loved someone, the more harm she felt she was doing. This was wrong on all levels. Killing Arin, feelings of love for Lauren, and last but not least hurting Tamsin.
All these feelings Bo was trying to processes and for once she felt overwhelmed. Tamsin told it like it was and that is what she wanted. Bo just didn't know the whole story. So much had been going on between them and Tamsin kept moving forward in their relationship bravely. But did she have a choice?
They were bonded or close to it like Tamsin said and she, a Valkyrie, still loved Bo no matter what she did.
It was unconditional love.
Bo wanted to push Tamsin away. Slink away and hide in shame but Tamsin was resting on her. She wanted to wallow in self-pity since apologizing just didn't seem enough right about now.
All Bo managed to squeak out meekly was, "I'm so fucking sorry for failing you…. US. I … I had no idea…."
Tamsin concentrated hard since she had the overwhelming urge to just kiss her and make it all go away, but she knew that was the effect of being Bo's thrall, but what Bo really needed was to get back on the horse again and then maybe cheered up. It was harder to do but Tamsin fought it.
It looked bad, really bad and Bo felt ashamed of herself but was surprised when Tamsin turned in a flash and pinning Bo on the couch aggressively pulling Bo's hair back with her left at first but the effect of being Bo's was that she let up just enough not to hurt her.
Tamsin angrily spat out using all her strength to fight the effects but started to feel pain. Apparently, when one was a thrall, not only was it pleasurable to please and obey, it also had another side to it to keep the 'victim' in line.
Even through the pain, Tamsin drew her backup dagger with her right hand hidden in the couch and slid it against Bo's very exposed neck. The pain was almost intolerable.
"Then put your pants on bitch and FIX IT already. Self-pity is for the weak and you're anything but. You HAVE my forgiveness Succubus… y .. you have my fealty, ..h… have my unconditional love … you have my SOUL! Now get the fuck UP before I bitch slap you." Tamsin trembled and stuttered fighting the effects of going against the thrall but held her poker face.
That was the Tamsin she knew. The stubborn bitch of a warrior that told it like it was and held no punches back. Abrasive and rough and Tamsin was right. She felt the blade of Tamsin's dagger on her neck but knew she did it to make a point.
"Alright TAMSIN!" Bo yelped out with a hint of pain but felt Tamsin thrust her hips into hers causing her momentarily to lose focus of the situation but never the less, she pulled a wisp of chi from her out of reflex but she tasted really good.
Tamsin wanted so much to just be rough with Bo more but she needed to get rid of the pain. An epiphany of sorts came to her as she thrust into Bo several times causing her stop her feed and moan.
"Does my succu-slut need to be physically punished for being a royal pain to her beloved Valkyrie and BONDED partner?" Tamsin purred the best she could with all the pain she was under. She was hoping that Bo's nature in addition to wanting more than her verbal forgiveness would make her say yes.
*** "yessss," Bo hissed out almost inaudible. She wanted Tamsin to be her goddess for once since being the goddess of the new order was hard work and she wasn't doing too well in terms of Tamsin she concluded.
That was all the confirmation Tamsin needed as pleasure now replaced her pain. It was a relief for Tamsin as she playfully held the blade at Bo's neck and began to lick at Bo's peaks through her material ever so slightly. She continued her thrusts made Bo arch her back to get more contact with Tamsin's lips and hips.
Tamsin needed Bo to not beg her to crest or else she knew she would do it in her current state, so Tamsin upped the ante and growled, "You treat me so badly my succubus and *IF* you want my full forgiveness, ACT like the Bo I know with a back bone. But for NOW take your lumps so, no powers, no chi pilling, no begging and no requests. AND most of all no coming until I say so. Take ANYTHING I do to you like a big girl and PAY your dues. Got it succu-lover?"
Bo just nodded still under threat of the knife but it was turning her on since Tamsin kept thrusting her hips into her nude sex since her shirt had ridden up.
Tamsin changed to a purr as she teased Bo by almost kissing her on the lips but ended up putting her lips within less than an inch from her ear never touching her.
"Bo, you don't know how happy that makes me. I hope you don't plan to go anywhere today because YOU are all mine. Valkyries don't forgive easily and YOU have a lot to make up for. Here's a hint of what you got in store," Tamsin chided with a click lowering her voice even more, her lips almost touching Bo's ear. "You are going to be a good succubus, go to my room blind fold yourself and then cuff yourself to my bed. Keep your clothes on 'cus we aren't gonna remove any today but you…. you will REGRET not being able to beg and plead to me. And if you do, I'll give it to you but I WILL be so pissed off that you broke your promise to me. I may NEVER forgive you," Tamsin ended licking her lobe ever so softly and Bo let out loud moan of delight. Giving Bo a guilt trip always helped to ensure that Bo obeyed, Tamsin thought manically.
Bo knew she was in for it, but loved that Tamsin was driving and everything she was saying coupled with the anticipation of what will happen just made her melt. Bo would submit to no one, but she would willingly do so for Tamsin. Bo was so hyposensitized already all she could do was moan out when Tamsin licked her ear lobe.
Tamsin finally got up off of Bo and just had an evil grin and with a nonchalant tone sat on the other side of the couch then cooed, "Well Bo? I'm waiting."
Bo stood up and stretched and let her hands glide seductively across her body in front of Tamsin and gracefully cat walked to Tamsin's room.
Tamsin loved the sound of handcuffs and let Bo wait in eager anticipation. After a couple of minutes, she huffed out a laugh and grabbed a feather quill from her desk, then a cup of ice. Bo was in for a long torturous time Tamsin brooded. She just needed to figure out how long she was going to let Bo go on the roller coaster of lust but never being fulfilled.
Bo never knew that hours could seem like years. Being blind folded and not knowing what was going on made her jump at even the slightest touch of a feather or ice cube. Not being able to use her hands or powers, made her a hapless lamb for Tamsin. Not being able to beg, plead or call the shots made Bo Tamsin's willing thrall. All Bo could do now was yell, grunt, mew and moan in unfulfilled ecstasy.
Tamsin made sure to bring Bo to highs but found excuses to leave and let Bo cool down. At times, Tamsin brought Bo to highs with just a feather and kept her there. Other times, Tamsin attacked her with nips and squeezes in all the right places. She did make sure though to not breach her temple which Tamsin knew would frustrate Bo to no end.
Tamsin used the ice to not only turn Bo on but to numb her tips and other areas to surreptitiously use her knife to cut through the thin night shirt in those places. Eventually Tamsin used the ice all over her chest to get rid of the entire front of her garment. Bo, being blindfolded had no idea was nude in front of Tamsin and that she had no real barriers to stop Tamsin for stimulating her.
How long did this go on? A couple of hours. This would qualify as torture for anyone, but even more so for Bo, a succubus.
In the end, Tamsin uncuffed Bo and took off her blindfold. Bo's eyes never stopped glowing blue but she was true to her word. She never drew chi, and she never mentioned even a part of a word. Tamsin finally kissed her longingly and took her the rest of the way breaching her temple mentioning, "You WIN Bo and are back in my good graces. Now sing for me and don't hold anything back."
Bo crested violently looking away from Tamsin desperately trying to stop her nature to pull delicious chi. She was so damn hungry, but wanted to prove to Tamsin that she would go against her nature and the whole world if she had to. Bo beat the bed hard as she let everyone in a block radius know how satisfied she was with her Valkyrie.
*** She finally collapse onto Tamsin and was just speechless but did manage to say, "Wow. We need to do make up sex more often."
Tamsin hugged Bo and Bo nuzzled into her. Both Bo and Tamsin did feel more closely bonded.
What of Tamsin being Bo's thrall? Tamsin was ok with it for she already gave Bo everything. She just wished that she could be more herself.
Bo couldn't believe how straight forward and honest Tamsin was to her and it made her feel special. Forgiveness for everything made her feel undeserving of her Valkyrie because Bo didn't know if she herself could do that if the roles were reversed. For a human, Tamsin turned out to be more powerful than a Fae. For a Fae, a Valkyrie, she handled emotions much better than most humans to which Bo was immensely thankful.
I flurry of activity was happening at precinct 69. They had about 2 hours before everyone moved out. Long Shot and On Target with a small support team were already deployed with Chica taking care of their weapons packages. This was done just in case the bank heist went off early.
Kendra walked briskly through the halls in full gear and vest with her Beowulf AR slung over her shoulder and noticed that Kara was walking towards her with equal urgency from the other end carrying a small back pack. Kendra noted that Kara had some fresh cuts and scrapes on her and limped slightly. She just came out of a fight.
The letter from Tamsin told her that Kara was a friend. Kendra really didn't know if she could trust her though. Tamsin was nice enough to let her know how Kara came into Bo's service. Kendra also had this place secured well after Eric's passing and wondered how she got in past the front desk.
She stopped in a bladed stance in the middle of the hall with her left side facing Kara and her right resting on her Glock out of sight of Kara.
Kara just stopped about 6 feet in front of her and looked her up and down with a neutral expression but was the first to speak.
"So you gonna ATTEMPT to arrest me or kill me for saying that I am Carrot Top's girlfriend and Tamsin's sister?" Kara let out calmly. "Well the sister part is true at least."
Kendra was still extremely wary on a hair trigger. She knew that within 12 feet, an unarmed Valkyrie was dangerous. She also hooked her left hand in her pocket which held her collapsible knife just in case.
"And that move doesn't work for getting past the front desk," Kendra challenged.
"I REALLY hope the Tamsin brought you up to speed in that letter. If I wanted you dead, do you think you'd even see me coming?" Kara said annoyed.
"You'd be surprised how fast I've adapted to the Fae culture as well as my team. I kind of learned to not get ambushed since shifters tried it twice on me already not to mention other drug cartels which also put out hits on me. Too bad I kind of put a hit out on them too and they always end up dead. The lucky ones end up on death row," Kendra chuckled but was nervous.
Just then Carrot Top started to cross the hall and he smiled at Kara. She quickly grabbed him and brought him into a deep kiss. It was apparent that Carrot Top wasn't accustom to being in that type of ambush.
Kendra swapped her right hand to her AR and brought it to the front but kept it pointed down. She concluded that if Kara goes postal, she'll have a Beowulf round coming at her with her name on it.
It wasn't long before Carrot Top kissed her back more passionately grabbing her by the small of her back lifting her off the ground.
Kendra just cleared her throat as others on the team looked on curiously in passing.
They finally broke their kiss and Carrot Top's face was red as can be but just to make a point, Kara spoke up but slyly, out of sight of Kendra, guided his hand from her back to her ass.
"Hey Jason, date tonight, 9pm at the Stop and Go Burger Joint and Bar?" Kara smoothly said with affection.
Kendra noted that this was the first time she saw any type of emotion out of her.
Carrot Top just nodded but Kara spoke again boldly, "Hey, I saw your ex out in the lobby. She wanted to see you and take back her stuff but Kendra's people are too nice especially that tool Sargent Harris and just asked her to leave. I TOLD her to leave and said that I was your GF now. Needless to say… opppsies…. She decided to tell me what a bitch I was …. a vulture… a slut… and I can't seem to remember anything else since she took a swing at me. Next thing I know, she's buck naked out on the street and getting arrested for public indecency with a big hand size welt on her face. NO IDEA how that happened but look… she ruined my nail job…." Kara faux whined and brought her hand up to him and pointed to a place where it was chipped. "I think I might have… MIGHT HAVE slapped the shit out of her and MIGHT have also shown her that she was the slut since she had no clothes on after I was done with her… MIGHT being the operative word… my recollection gets sketchy … I'm a Valkyrie like Tamsin BUT better, my reflexes are too fast even for me."
"Well, how about I help you get that repainted after dinner at my place. Darlene left all her nail polish and crap all over my place and I am sure I can fix that on those precious, delicate and DEADLY hands of yours before we make a big bonfire with all her stuff," Carrot Top mentioned with appreciation.
Kara then asked with a bright smile, "Wow so nail job for a blow job… I accept… and I have 4 chips… ONE for each base… care to fix 'em all and go for the home run… or do you just want to steal home?"
"How about a double header in addition to stealing SEVERAL bases numerous times?" Jason said with a wry smile.
"Ohhhhh, you sure know how to sweep a wild and crazy Valkyrie off of her feet…. Literally and figuratively. So I'm your girlfriend now right?" Kara asked with an innocent and shy look batting her lashes.
"I'll call you anything you want … er" Jason hesitated.
Kara pecked him on the cheek and just whispered into his ear, "My name is Kara, rhymes with Lara like the action hero but I'm not a fictitious poser character and kick soooo much more ass than Tamsin or Kendra COMBINED."
"EH-HEM!" Kendra stated loudly to break up the mac fest looking annoyed.
Jason back off but completed his statement, "I'll call you anything you want Kara and yes, you are my girlfriend."
Kara then dead panned to Kendra who obviously couldn't believe this was happening on a busy day like this and finally straightened up and let everyone know, "See and I'm Carrot Tops girlfriend after all. It's just that the front desk didn't know I meant it in the FUTURE tense. I am just THAT good."
Kara and Jason then quickly exchanged numbers and he left.
"So what brings you here Kara?" Kendra asked warily with her index finger still outside of her AR trigger well but wanted to get to business.
Kara glanced at the AR that Kendra was holding then stated in awe, "By the wrath of Odin, you have the Decimator. One of Tamsin's most prized mid ranged rifles. Aren't you special. Can I see it!" Kara just walked up to Kendra and even though Kendra did point it at her ready to pull the trigger, Kara's demeanor was not of an attacking Valkyrie.
Kara had some nerve boldly redirecting the muzzle away from her and to the ground with a single hand.
Just by this, Kendra knew she was quite talented, even though she was doing the action slowly, she did the defense correctly with precision and hence had experience. Kendra still had not gotten use to her so expanded her folding knife and positioned it at her throat just in case but Kara had lightening reflexes and caught her hand in a stale mate as Kendra growled back, "I asked you a fucking question and I ALMOST blew your head off. Don't MESS with me. I was trained by a Valkyrie and know the first rule of combat."
Kara laughed in a cackle never letting go but let the blade rest on her neck, "When in doubt kill first, ask questions later? Wow, major fail Major Shaw."
"Holy Valkyries from Valhalla!" Kenzi blurted out jumping back seeing a Valkyrie she had not met before and Kendra in a stalemate mid fight. She had just run into them in the hall. "What's on the venue today? A vicious Victorian style vendetta? How vexingly vivacious."
Kara glanced at the Gothy figure and then looked up to ceiling as if thinking but then stated, "You must be Kenzi."
"DHS! Hands up and BACK OFF of her! NOW!" yelled Alex from the side.
Drake and Alex, who was a step behind Kenzi, brushed by her with their ARs at the ready. Alex was very aggressive taking point but stopping within feet of Kara taking aim at her head. Drake took another approach but his rifle was pointed down but ready to go.
Humpday entered the hall as well and it looked like he wanted to inform Kendra of something but also advanced on her and stayed to the right of Kendra's shoulder and just questioned, "Ma'am?"
It also didn't take long for Skipper and Gilligan to take Kendra's left.
"Yeppers, the ONE and only sista!" Kenzi chirped looking uneasy about peace talks quickly going south.
"What the heck?" Carrot Top noted advancing on Kara too taking a stance next to Alex ready to fire as well but confusion highlighted his chiseled features. "Kara, yer my girlfriend and all but fucking with my family is a BAD move."
Drake calmly walked up to Kara and Kendra in their current deadlock and just said in a soothing tone, "Take it easy everyone. No fight is going down here now ok ladies?" Drake put hand gingerly on Kara's blocking knife hand as if to deescalate the situation, then looked down and closed his eyes briefly, but still murmured, "Just everyone deep breaths."
Alex looked on with steely determination but also observed Drake.
Drake detached himself but met eyes with Kendra's out of sight of Kara and just nodded lowering his weapon and taking stand next to Alex.
Kara just smiled aloof and clarified, "Look, I mean none of you any harm. We ARE on the same team. BTW you are a sister to Tamsin and Bo is my goddess ok? I am commanded to follow the old creed but also to do what it took to support the family. So, to answer your question, I just got back from the field and returned souls as per Odin's request, but I had a small window of time to get some books that may help you with Tamsin's errr… CONDITION."
Kara backed up and reached into her back pack and took out 2 books, "SEE? Can we TALK now… and THEN fire Decimator? Ya gotta range here right?"
Kendra growled lightly but finally lowered her weapon and folded the blade adroitly and put it back in her pocket but mentioned to Kara still sizing her up, "You are either the craziest Valkyrie ever or the most obtuse. Let's go to my office," Kendra concluded leading the way.
Kara replied with a big smile, "Hey wild and crazy *IS* my name when translated. Any wonder how I got it?" Kara just cackled more.
Everyone else just groaned and dispersed.
Once in the office, Kendra unloaded her rifle and set it down on a table behind her and then taking a seat behind the desk. "Kara you were saying?"
Kara changed to a more formal demeanor, jumping right in and slid a think black leather bound book with a nude woman embossed on the cover with other types of Fae worshiping her, "Here is a book from the libraries of Valhalla. It chronicles our encounters and observations of every single Succubus we met. Something that your Blood King will NOT have. You need this because it talks about Valkyries being enthralled by a succubus, effects and consequences, which normally got the succubus killed since one SURE way to get rid of the thralling is to kill them, but there are other interesting things that I don't care to read about. Soooo boring."
Kendra opened and flipped through the book. It was written in ancient Valkyrie. "I can't read this Kara, it's a language that is foreign to me."
"Don't worry Major," Kara offered pulling an ornate and beautifully engraved silver magnifying glass out of her pocket, "Use this to read it, it's like google translate but sooooo much better."
Kendra accepted it and after reading a couple of sentences and just murmured, "Thanks, it will work."
"Annnnnd THIS one you may need to open." A large mahogany colored leather bound non-descript book plopped on the table with button clasp on it. "Before you ask, this is Arin's diary. She sure knew how to waste time and I am sure if I read it, it will cure my insomnia, BUT bet my last lifetime … wait I KNOW… you will find nuggets of info in there that will help you with Tamsin. That crazy bitch needs allll the help she can get. She just thralled herself willingly and you thought *I* was crazy. Hey it won't open for me, so give it a whirl," Kara concluded popping some gum in her mouth while gesturing the book.
Kendra reached for the clasp. It glowed red but was stuck. She tried harder, but it would not budge.
Kara then reached out and put her hands on top of Kendra's to keep them still. "Give it a moment. You aren't a Valkyrie and it doesn't know you. It needs time, to read your intentions. If you are Tamsin's sister and Arin has that role too, the book will be able to determine your motives and will unlock. K? Just clear your mind and let it read you for a minute."
Kendra hated waiting and so did Kara, but less than 20 seconds later, the book clasp stopped glowing.
"Try now," Kara said popping her gum.
The clasp opened easily now and looking at the last couple of pages, they were filled with Bo, the goddess of the new order and her sister Tamsin. Kara was right.
"K… my job is done here. TTYL Major!" Kara turned to leave when Kendra thought of something.
"Kara, you seem in a rush, how long until your next campaign or mission?" Kendra asked curiously looking up from the book.
"Oh 3 and a half hours. So gotta catch some Z's," Kara mentioned popping her gum even more.
"Valkyrie's need at least 6 hours to heal fully, will you be ok?" Kendra responded.
"Yep, may not fully heal but I've had worse, I'll manage Major," Kara smiled but was ready to go.
"Kara, we may be in an all human district, but we have a human doctor here the treats Fae. Talan will be able to treat you so that you heal faster in your sleep," Kendra offered.
"WHY would you do this for me Kendra? You were just about to kill me moments ago?" Kara questioned and laughed skeptically at the end.
"You're family now. I may disagree with you and I know we will fight, but in the end, we are all that we have," Kendra looked back down at the book and read it more as she heard the door open and close. She would not have trusted Kara since she acted like a loose cannon even though Tamsin told her in the letter she could be trusted. But it was Drake that helped her accept Kara. Drake's nod or approval alone showed that he read her and vetted her intensions and from the looks of it, they were good. Kendra was appreciative that Drake was around or else things might have gotten a little hostile.
Bo woke famished but more importantly, Tamsin was already up kneeling beside her and stroking Bo's nude body in an eastern type of massage technique. It was not a hard muscle rub but it was one that made her feel great with its light and gentle glides across her skin.
She knew it wasn't supposed to be the sexual type, but Tamsin's light talented touches, rubs and strokes relaxed her and made her feel better. Bo felt whole again. She resisted opening her eyes but loved the look of her Valkyrie caring for her.
She thought it amusing that she was doing it such a way that she wouldn't wake up. It was akin to admitting that the once cold hearted Valkyrie cared for her.
Bo was still awe stuck that Tamsin made her yell so loud hours ago that she felt like she was going to lose her voice or at the very least be hoarse but Bo smiled and stroked Tamsin's arm and just said, "Hey you."
Tamsin smiled a little embarrassed at getting caught showing affection. She just matter of fact said, "Hey Bo, almost done then you can feed. OK?"
"How'd you know I needed to feed?" Bo asked softly.
Tamsin just did an eye roll, "Duh! You didn't feed after our most recent escapade where I literally tortured you to death AND your eyes have a bluish hue to them even now. But…" Tamsin said humbly knowing that what she was about to admit was not something a warrior did. "I happen to know the art of Shiatsu and it deals with energy flow or chi flow. I was getting rid of blockages in our body so you can use my delicious chi better. It will make you use what you do have better and you will end up needing less of it. It may also last what you do have longer."
Bo could sense that Tamsin was uncomfortable and embarrassed with this topic but it was really sweet of her. Bo decided to break up the tension and crack a smile and responded, "Does that mean I have less of a sex drive too?"
Tamsin just huffed out a laugh and pecked Bo on the lips knowing full well what she just did, "No. Besides, what would Bo, a sex demon be without her chronic desire to run around charming everyone's clothes off."
With that Tamsin seductively pulled her top off and slid her short off show casing her body to Bo.
Bo just laughed and smiled, "Hey what happened to your clothes my Valkyrie? Wow I must be good."
Tamsin huffed out a laugh again but decided clue Bo in. "I wanted to get you ready for the main course which is riiiight now."
Tamsin mounted Bo and rubbed her body gently against her, planting kissed all up and down her body.
Bo finally sat up with Tamsin as they felt each other's body not in a sexual way, but more to learn each other, every part of them. They moved as one.
Love.
TRUE love.
It transcended sex and lust. For true love was the communion of 2 separate people into one. It was a bond that was unbreakable so long as both parties worked at it. And now, Tamsin gave Bo everything willingly without the effects of what being a thrall meant. Being Bo's thrall only helped her forgive and remove her other inhibitions which stopped her from being one. Since deep down, Tamsin was Bo's the moment she saluted her.
Tamsin just needed that extra push to get her over the hump which she had now.
For Bo, she gave Tamsin everything as well when she realized and verbalized into Tamsin's awaiting ear, "Tamsin, I love you. Tell me what I need to do to be with you forever, and I will do it. WHATEVER it takes, I want to be yours."
Tamsin's heart fluttered. She felt so undeserving of Bo but her proclamations made her warm inside.
Bo kissed her cheek and then admitted firmly, soft and smooth as silk, "I didn't know what true love was until YOU showed me Tamsin. You ARE perfect, to me you are."
Tamsin just kissed Bo back and recited looking deeply in Bo's bluish brown eyes, "Your eyes are both brown and blue. Your heart is both strong and gentle. You're virtuous, yet you're a succubus. You have all the power in the world, but yet you are humble. You're a deity and deserve to sit on a throne, but you don't allow others to serve you while you live modestly. You can be with anyone and everyone you want but…. You chose to stay with me. You love everyone, but gave your heart to me. I'm a sinful and immoral creature, but you righted me and chose to forgive my entire past. You can't exist… you can't be real…."
Tamsin looked away but still moved forward and wanted to tell Bo how she did feel. She never made eye contact with Bo again and Bo sensed how hard this was for her to admit.
"I…. don't know how to take all of this," Tamsin looked down and confessed. "I do love you Bo, unconditionally. It's just really hard to fathom. I try to process this turn of events and it doesn't make any sense. You were supposed to LEAVE me and just let me rot in hell. HATE me, but you would give me the world if you could. I… I ….I…"
It was really bold of Tamsin to come forward to her in this manner and it was moving. She saw the stress and strain on her features and everything she just said was truthful and was vibrant, full of feeling. Tamsin came to a point where she understood true love as well and try as she might to avoid it, love found her in the most unexpected way. She stammered as if trying to find a shred proof, pointing to something that made sense logically to go against her feelings of love for Bo but seemed to be at a loss. Bo decided to help her make up her mind.
Bo cupped Tamsin's chin and brought her to look her into the eyes. She could see Tamsin's mind running in circles at the incongruent facts which led to them being somehow together.
When Bo saw that she had Tamsin's undivided attention, so she boldly proclaimed, "Tamsin, I'd go dark for you."
Tamsin backed up for a moment in apparent shock but Bo held her gaze and stated it once more, "Tamsin, I love you and I would go dark for you. If that is the only thing separating us, then SO BE IT."
Tamsin blurted out flabbergasted, "But you are the UNALIGNED succubus. Are you nuts! That's who you are! That's… that's everything you represent."
"I am nothing without you Tamsin. You forget that YOU define me as well. I am ready to present myself to the Morrigan right NOW if it means that I get to have you all to myself, FOREVER," Bo still held Tamsin's gaze. She knew it was working when she saw Tamsin shed tear of joy.
Tamsin's voice cracked as her face contorted trying to hold her tears back, "But you belong to the light like the rest of your friends."
Bo had managed to straddle Tamsin who kept trying to back up as she only supported herself with her elbows and was almost leaning prostrate. Bo pushed her into the bed and with conviction and held her shoulders down as said, "NO! I belong to YOU. You gave up everything for me and I WILL do the same Valkyrie because that is what loving couples do."
Tamsin was at a loss for words. Try as she might to dodge and run away from love, love found her no matter where she hid. Her heart cracked wide open to know that Bo would give up anything and everything that defined her all to be with a single Valkyrie, her.
In that moment all Tamsin could do awash with joy at the agape love that Bo showered her with was to hold the back of Bo's neck and with her hoarse voice requested, "Bo, I love you. Please feed from me."
Tamsin brought Bo into a deep passionate and loving kiss.
Bo was overjoyed and one of her own tears dropped onto Tamsin's face, and rolled into one of Tamsin's tears. They combined effortlessly and then roll off as one.
Bo pulled Tamsin's chi gently but noticed its quality change part of the way through. The chi that was normally orange in color changed midstream from bright orange to blue. It was powerful and its taste was even more addictive than what she had before.
In a blink of any eye, Bo felt more than full, she felt fulfilled.
One.
"Wow, what was that?" Bo asked astonished cutting the pull of chi.
Tamsin sat up and pushed Bo into the bed, and then in a husky voice declared as she took the top, "It means we've successfully bonded. You're a tricky one aren't you?" Tamsin scrunched her face before she kissed Bo deeply again.
"What can I say, I'm a sucker for a head strong smoking hot Valkyrie. And you just CRUMBLED before me didn't you," Bo cooed out after a break in kissing.
"Want me to show you my precinct number again? 'Cus a cuffed succubus is a losing succubus," Tamsin threatened walking her fingers down Bo's stomach towards her temple.
"Ohhhhhh sounds kinky Tamtam," Be perked up and then added, "You know what they say, the couple that LAY together, STAY together."
Tamsin laughed whole heartedly. It was the first time Bo actually made a rhyme that made sense.
What of Tamsin being Bo's thrall? Although Tamsin attributed her actions just now partly to the effects of the thrall, she didn't feel it compelling her to do or say anything since Bo didn't give her any orders or force her to answer questions.
This time, it was all Tamsin.
This time, 2 polar opposites, a Succubus and a Valkyrie not only found that common ground they so desperately sought, they were finally bond by it, for better or for worse.
The road ahead was murky and dangerous, but Tamsin and Bo would see it through together. The only question that lingered was for how long and Bo was bound in more ways than one to keep her bonded soul mate by her side.
