A/N: Valkubus Smut in this chap. Have no idea where to put the markers. Gotta post and run. Correcting grammatical errors now, bear with me. Comment, Fav, follow please.
Kendra put Hump Day in charge of the logistics as they were set to leave in 2 hours and change. The 2 banks had already opened with no signs of the robbers so that was good. A small section of her team was already there onsite under cover just in case. Normally she would have been managing every detail for this mission but she was worried for Tamsin.
She was busy reading both books hurriedly.
Kendra wasn't so much worried how to break Bo's enthrallment since that was straight forward. You kill the succubus, which was not an option here, or break it with a simple ritual which needed a human.
What she did need to know was what effect or side effect it would have on Tamsin and the rest of the people in her life if she stayed that way. It wasn't so much that she didn't want the real Tamsin back but according to the letter, it had to be that way at least of a period of time.
Kendra already new, but Tamsin confirmed it. Tamsin, although would give Bo everything as a result of her unconditional love, needed time to forgive Bo for the amount of pain and betrayal she felt when Laruen was able to move Bo's heart so easily, which was now hers. In addition, with the death of Arin, it meant that Tamsin had to do what it took to stay alive and be with Bo. That was easier said than done.
Trouble found Bo and Tamsin finally vocalized in the letter to her that she was always on edge about it. With the amount of time she had left, she needed to go out with a bang fighting alongside her sisterhood. They came first in her life and it was what defined her as a Valkyrie. It was her last wish but for Bo she had to give that up and try to hold on at least until Arin was old enough to defend Bo.
This weighed on her the most Kendra noted with the pen ink smears on the letter from that what she could only determine was Tamsin crying.
Bo would find a way to keep her alive, but for how long?
Being a thrall had already several handicaps and it was Kendra's job as her surviving sister to find a way to make it work.
Breaking the thrall too soon would have several consequences Kendra knew, most notably, the death of Lauren and possibly her whole security team at Tamsin's hands and the scathing resentment toward Bo on giving up the last vestige of herself as a Valkyrie. Those items alone would put a wedge in their relationship if not end it and Tamsin was doing her best to avoid it.
The only way to solve it was time.
But it was really time she didn't have.
Kendra mused, was there such thing as loving someone too much? Was Tamsin a fool for doing this? Was she that desperate? Did she love Bo that much where her entire existence didn't revolve around being a Valkyrie but solely over another, Bo?
Kendra kept busy reading even ignoring Dyson's texts to an extent. She would acknowledge them but responded tersely since she needed to find her next move on behalf of her sister, Tamsin.
For a human set to self-destruct, Kendra was engrossed in items that didn't have to do with revenge or killing shape shifters for once. She moved forward now protecting her new family subconsciously.
As for Dyson, Kendra had some soul searching to do as well. Like Tamsin, could she do the same for Dyson? Could she love him unconditionally? Tamsin gave up everything now to be with Bo, but could Kendra give up her campaign of hate and genocide? It seemed like an easy answer but where would her power come from then?
More importantly, what of her word to Eric and the justice she sought? Could she turn her back on her first true love? Was Eric even the first since Dyson was her good friend as soon as she joined Eric's team.
Eric and Dyson and her got along well, but she shared more of herself and her crazy theories with Dyson. Did that make him first?
All this was mind boggling when Kendra found herself imaging about having a future with Dyson but shook that thought off rapidly.
It bothered her that she did that every now and then because Kendra knew the power of dreams. Sometimes if you wish hard enough and work towards them, they come true. She had thought the same way with Eric, but that wasn't to be. She didn't want to be hurt or feel disappointment again.
So in addition to Tamsin, Kendra also meditated on Dyson who was giving up everything to be her but could she return it in kind?
Kendra needed TIME.
But like Tamsin, was it time she had?
"Oh my god Tamsin," Bo panted thoroughly spent next to Tamsin on her couch. Their towels were strewed about the floor, their hair still wet from coming out of a shower. Their bodies were still moist with beads of water still on them.
"Was that like… ummmmm 4 times…" Bo was cut off as Tamsin kissed her as they sat hugging one another; their hands still roaming each other's bodies.
"Yup, but my succu-whore isn't done yet, you have one more at least," Tamsin mentioned in a sultry voice.
"Oh shit, not another. I was already topped out at 3 but I didn't know your shower head had that many settings. You sure know how to show a succubus a great time," Bo said still exhausted.
Tamsin felt and urge to stop since Bo asked, but fought to find a way around it. Bo was still touching her lightly and keeping close to Tamsin. Wanting to be near but Tamsin pushed Bo playfully to the other side and then in a husky voice said going behind the couch to massage Bo's shoulders.
"Bo, do you remember that week I was away and then you made me admit to THINKING about you every night in the MOST intimate way when I got back?" Tamsin asked innocently kneading her shoulders and going down her back.
"Uh-huh. Ummmmm, god that feels so good TamTam," Bo exhaled. Tamsin's touches were talented in working her already relaxed muscles. After all, they just came out of a hot shower.
Tamsin smirked evilly out of sight of Bo and kept working her magic, "I *NEVER* told you what I did to WORSHIP you."
Bo leaned back, "Uh-huh, tell me more Valkyrie." Bo loved that Tamsin knew how to pamper her. It was another side of her that Tamsin kept hidden before since it was such a weak quality Bo guessed, but right now, it was one of the best.
"I would come home from a hard day's work. All dirty and from booking scum bags drug dealers. I would image that you were waiting for me in bed naked and I would strip seductively and slowly out of all my gear. I'd pull my body armor over my head, and make sure to show you the woman and Valkyrie you can't possibly handle even clothed. I'd make sure to push out my chest as I tease you with my form fitting sports shirt. I'd dance like a stripper for you and only you Bo," Tamsin admitted.
Bo was lost on lala land and she imaged Tamsin do those things for her. "Gosh Tammy, why didn't you do that to me for real?" Bo exhaled sinking deep into the couch.
"Well Bo, I didn't want to admit I was that weak. Just thinking about you made me TOUCH myself, in all the ways a hardened warrior wasn't supposed to do. Anyway, I'd pull out my cuffs and twirl them and toss them to you, take out my gun and drop it on the floor along with all my other pieces of hardware one by one to show my succubus how to do a strip tease. I wanted to make your eyes glow blue without even showing skin," Tamsin purred.
Tamsin then observed that her copious description was working. Bo, unbeknownst to her, eyes were already blue with her hands beginning to slowly run over her own body.
Bo was in heaven all lost in Tamsin's world.
Tamsin then whispered within an inch of her ear, "Then I'd do a dance for you. The kind that would make even Cleopatra green with envy and the type no Warrior would ever do. BUT, I'd do it do you. I'd sway my hips, twirl and contort my body while I slowly, PAINFULLY so, then slink out of my body hugging shirt and pants. I'd try to do my best to make sure that you squeezed yourself in front of me with your naked form hidden under the almost sheer sheets."
Bo was all hers as she started to lose control and gave into Tamsin's suggestions. Her imagination ran wild as she pictured her Valkyrie do all the things she described. She ran her hands all over her nude form squeezing her twin peaks arching her back and moaning in the process.
It's all too easy Tamsin thought.
"Then I'd be in my bra and skimpy white panties to show how pure I was and then I'd image doing a lap dance pulling your sheets back with my teeth to reveal a succubus that surreptitiously was making a mess in my bed impaling herself because baby Fae just has no control," Tamsin whispered smooth as silk.
"Uggggggg…. Ahhh!" Bo grunted loudly as she breached the own castle gates at Tamsin's mere suggestion. "Naaaah!" she cried out bucking her hips but being held back as Tamsin kept her massage going holding her in the couch.
Bo was already spent, but Tamsin admitted to having a soft spot for her that drove her insane. All Bo saw was a snarky Valkyrie that sometimes grudgingly gave into sex. Tamsin was a talented story teller too as Bo just ravaged herself in front of her.
"That picture of you scans clothing? I pull it up on my phone and image you just watching me as I tease all my sensitive parts, without taking off anything else to stay covered just enough to drive any succubus crazy. I always crest like an avalanche not allowing you to see or touch me. As I proclaim loudly and openly in worship to my succubus," Tamsin cooed and then imitated herself yelling and broadcasting, "'God I love you Bo! Oh my god Bo! God Bo! Bo! Booooooo!'"
"Tamsiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin! Noooooooo!" Bo grunted out over her fever and frenzied state as she peaked fiercely without Tamsin laying a finger on her in a sexual way. Even with Tamsin behind her she fed on her Valkyrie's now more addictive Chi briefly. Bo was already full so she cut the flow off and just resorted to convulsing in hedonistic jubilation.
Tamsin felt the influence of the thrall since Bo said no.
"No, to what?" Tamsin snorted like it was the dumbest question around then huffing out a laugh, "To a simple massage? Puh-lease. Are you sure Bo 'cus I was just talking to you? But I'm not done my story yet."
Tamsin pouted snaking her head around Bo to kiss a succubus panting hard and added looking Bo straight into the eyes begging. "You know I will never admit or cop out to these things I tell you now ever again Bo. This is a one time only deal since I feel like a giving mood to celebrate our bond just now. Sooooo humiliating. So can my succubus just relax and listen while I complete your massage?" Tamsin pouted once more. Tamsin found this was an odd turn of events as she didn't beg, easily that is, but to get Bo to let her continue she needed to adapt.
Bo melted at Tamsin's pout. Bo never saw Tamsin, the Valkyrie, use that tactic before but it was beyond cute and Bo just found herself nodding in response. Bo had to give it to her, Tamsin grossly understated her wiles. If she used them more often, she might not have to resort to intimidation that often if at all.
Tamsin fluidly walked to the front with an extremely spent Bo looking on at her hungrily. Tamsin then joined Bo on the couch now and made Bo scoot forward as she took a seat behind her succubus. She continued to massage Bo's lower her back and also did her upper arms for a couple minutes in silence, waiting for Bo's breathing and slow and relax more.
Tamsin then meekly whispered in Bo waiting ear, "And after I touched the heavens worshiping the goddess of the new order, I felt sooooooo guilty 'cus *I* serve no one, especially a god. I yield to no one after all. So I'd strip and get into the shower to wash everything away. The assholes I booked at the precinct, other guys gawking at my body, boring paperwork and more importantly, I needed to wash away your memory."
"Oh no Tammy, please say it isn't so" Bo frowned and looked back her it with puppy dog eyes. It was so like Tamsin to try to forget her even though it was an act of futility.
Tamsin just brushed off the comment and continued purring, "Remember when we fought at Taft's place, I said I was older and wiser? Well, you underestimate me succubus. I have more field experience….. even more than you Baby Fae when it comes to both battles AND hot sweaty sex. You wonder how I got you in bed even though you still had that slut doctor of yours dancing your mind? It was MY wiles you fell for Bo. Back in the Trojan war, imagine 4 hot men built like brick houses all naked I front of you, wanting to take you, but you only wanted to be with only one. It happened to me."
Bo just closed her eyes and mumbled, "uh huh." Bo pictured herself in that setting Tamsin just described as she leaned into the luxurious massage more.
Tamsin smiled knowing that Bo was falling into her trap again as she continued to divest one of her deepest most personal secrets to Bo, "Bo you would be so screwed without your powers, but as 10th order Valkyrie at the time and a rising star, I needed to SAVE myself for my hero."
Tamsin then proceed to lightly glide her hands over the front of Bo's chest, tempting but never touching her breasts or sex with the goal of getting Bo to fall into her nature again. She knew it was would be a challenge, but Tamsin loved to loosen up her stuck up idealistic succubus.
"Soooo," Tamsin mumbled, "I took them ALL on to keep my hero happy. Yes Bo, you don't corner the market in hedonistic foursomes since you can't handle even an innocent friendly threesome." Tamsin teased and then continued, "So what's a Valkyrie of the dark to do while sticking to Freya's creed? Wellllll I took them on like any big league baseball team and called the shots for our game. I made 2 stay and watch in the dugout as they prepped their bats. I would then call 2 up to the plate and like an umpire, I inspected their bats, the balls and I made really sure they were up to big league standards. You have to have a REFINED touch when you inspect their merchandise."
Tamsin then brushed her hand lightly at the base of her mounds which caused Bo to elicit a moan. She needed Bo to bring herself to peak again and put her hands on top of hers and guiding them to her twins in painfully slow and innocent precision.
"Let me show you HOW to I did that," Tamsin purred in a low voice licking the base of Bo's ear. She moved her tongue seductively up and down the edge of her exposed ear, lightly. Bo turn into it wanting more and it was at that time Tamsin knew to sliding Bo's hands into her very sensitive twins. "It takes a delicate touch. Not too hard, and just soft enough to feel every nook and crany."
"Ummmmmmmm, shit Tamsinnnnnnn," Bo said tightly trying to resists but Tamsin's story was turning her on again. Before she knew it, she was leaning to Tamsin, her whole body betraying her. A high pitch squeal emitted as Bo realized that her own hands her doing the inspecting on her own body much to her delight, but denied herself since it was her body after all. She was determined to not fall into the trap of her species.
Tamsin loved that Bo resisted. 'The bigger the goddess is the hard they fall… FOR ME that is,' Tamsin thought to herself manically.
She then continued brushing her lips on Bo's ear lobe. She knew her lips going up and down its length combined with her sultry voice proximity would drive Bo mad. "I took both of their wood bats, inspected their whole length like so, but I also swung them to. And when the batters got impatient, I grabbed their bats and I played HARD ball with them, aggressively and since they waited so long and just wanted to shaft me. They ended up STRIKING OUT as I never let go to their bats paying attention of the tips as only their sweat and other fluids dropped onto the ground and sometimes all over me since they just were hunched over in front of me at home plate grunting in exasperation at MY sheet talent."
Bo started to squeeze since Tamsin's story was really turning her on. It was like she was watching her Valkyrie being taken by strangers in a foursome. Before she knew it, she slid one of her hands down to quench the desire in her loins rubbing her oils all over herself.
Tamsin no longer needed to massage Bo since Bo was lost in lust. She was kind of proud of herself that she could make Bo do this without really touching her in that fashion.
"Strike 1, then one was out. Strike 2, he was out too. Did the same to the 3rd friend. STRIKE 3. They were all fucking out before the end of the first inning. And the my hero? I made sure to go extra innings with him until he lost at the bottom of the 9th since I'm always good on top," Tamsin admitted just whispering it into Bo's ear as Bo contorted her body to stop of reaching peak.
"Fuuccck!," Bo grunted out in frustration as her digits finally entered. Bo was too tired to peak again, but Tamsin had talent and had learned her way too well. She was full, but Tamsin knew just how to push the right buttons to make her be Tamsin's hapless love slave. She didn't know if she could peak again, but Tamsin's risqué monolog was taking her to the edge but Bo just didn't know when and how. In her current states she had had control of her hands, but did she?
Tamsin was extremely aroused and it was due to the bond. She felt Bo trying her hardest not to peak but Tamsin found it odd that she was able to read her thoughts to a degree. Bo loved she story but wished she could be in it. Tamsin knew how to take care of that since she wasn't done with Bo.
Tamsin then confessed, "I use to come to that all the time until YOU freaking ruined me. Try as I might, I couldn't crest after my first time with my succu-slit. The only way how it ended was when I imaged you at my feet. I had to set the shower head to hard pulse and then image you attacking my thighs. Ruthlessly and voraciously dominating me with your fingers, tougue and lips, sucking me dry! Ramming my castle walls, taking down one of Odin's finest as your fucking prisoner and sex slave. Then you just make me yell …"
"I… I'm coooomming!...AHHHH! Fuuuuuck! Gooooooooooooooooooood Noooooooooooo! Not agaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!," Bo yelled out with all her might bring both hands down to satiate herself convulsing in Tamsin's embrace. Bo was mewing out in both pleasure and pain. This was great but she was already full. However, the energy it took to get her there was now running on empty.
Tamsin loved the control she had over Bo but was also acutely aware that even without the thrall effect, Bo was going to collect one day but Tamsin didn't mind.
Bo took a couple minutes to calm down in silent lucidity which they shared with one another.
Tamsin innocently continued her massage as Bo went limp in sheer exhaustion but finally broke the ice when she just murmured incredulously, "Wow Bo, how did you know the ending to my story?"
"Luck guess, I think," Bo said out of breath still with a sheepish grin.
"Just 4 times huh?" Tamsin joked adjusting her position to face Bo. Tamsin then looked up pretending to do a mathematical calculation then then locked onto Bo's deep brown eyes and mocked, "I counted 6 painful intense ones and the last 2 were ALL you. I guess you and you alone do choose your own destiny after all."
"You'll owe me 2 later Tammy. Trust me," Bo whispered pecking Tamsin on the cheek.
Tamsin then huffed out a laugh, "On top of the one I already owe you for squeezing one out at the precinct AFTER the bet YOU LOST?"
Bo looked surprised. 'How the heck did she know?' She asked herself and then it hit her a moment later as they both said unison, "The bond."
Tamsin then decided to prod Bo more and then stated as a matter of course scrunching her face, "Well Bo you DID do it at an inconvenient time. I was in the middle of eating dinner with Lauren trying to convince her to come back to you. Instead you were coming over ME. I bet images of a wild illicit lascivious foursome ran through your dirty mind."
Bo smirked a little embarrassed but confessed, "Well the evidence room was unused it just had sooo many interesting items for me to use. AND don't promise things you can't deliver Tamtam."
Tamsin lookup to the ceiling and huffed out a laugh, "Ohhhhhh but I DO deliver Bo. I delivered the doc on a silver platter all hot and ready to DEVOUR. You are still more than free to tap that, just remember your heart is mine and mine alone. Foursome Bo? Succubus…. PUH-LEASE. Give me a real challenge. It's a fact that it will happen in due time. I have more field experience than you think. What? You mean to tell me that YOU, a sex demon, don't want this? A healthy succubus needs a diverse feeding pool. Being restricted to one, although it will work, will only result in pent up frustration and which you will just end up sucking the whole town dry one day."
Bo looked away and then locked onto Tamsin glowing green eyes, "But it's wrong Tamsin. I am committed to YOU. Now that we are bond…"
"NOW that we are bonded, I need to keep you happy," Tamsin interrupted holding her hands, "Bo, you keep assigning human traits and values to a Fae world but IT WON'T WORK. The doc got that part right. You need to feed from others or else you'd starve to death."
"But I can feed from just you Tamsin. Your new chi does satisfy me," Bo pleaded. She wanted to deny herself and her species for her Valkyrie. She wanted to move the world for her.
"It's in your nature Bo. I have never seen a succubus do what you are trying to do, but while I really do appreciate it, I wanted to let you know that I would never vilify you. Just keep you heart for me and remember, only I can dominate you," Tamsin said with a click.
Bo was still processing all of this and Tamsin loved her so much that she was willing to not put restrictions on her. It was really refreshing that she didn't have to feel guilty if she happened to feed from others. She acutely remembered slinking back to Lauren after she fed from Dyson.
"So Bo, no foursome then?" Tamsin jeered with a knowing grin.
"You are evil Tamsin. Pure unadulterated evil," Bo stated all exasperated kissing her deeply.
"IIIII knowww," Tamsin sang out in a conceited manner.
In a roundabout way, Tamsin and Bo agreed on the answer.
Bo felt special that Tamsin knew just how to spoil her.
"Hey Tammy," Bo stated observing Tamsin's malicious expression, "I hope you find the footage of me at the precinct desk pleasing to you my Valkyrie."
"Oh yea, HALMARK moment. Just the thought of hitting the share to everyone button on my phone just brings chills up my spine," Tamsin shivered with an evil grin. Tamsin then added, "And I added text message sub titles already and WOW. Get Kenzi to do a little digital enhancement OR maybe not, and I COULD make millions on a leaked video of the unaligned succubus pleasuring herself in public."
Bo could see her aura spike and she also felt through the bond how much she loved to have power over her. It was time to even the score a little Bo thought keeping a poker face.
"Hmmmmmm how many times did you use the video and my pictures to help you sleep at Lauren's place?" Bo asked kissing Tamsin's neck. Careful not to pour on too much human charm or else Tamsin would put her shields up.
"Ohhhh I don't know," Tamsin looked up, her mind a little foggy since Bo was kissing her making her mind shut down as usual. The thralling had the additional effect to amplifying that. She felt the urge to answer," maybe every night."
"So when you had amnesia, did I still help 'calm you'?" Bo asked nibbling on Tamsin's ear.
"Fuck yea! After I found out the veritable treasure trove of blackmail material on my phone, who could resist," Tamsin snored out but added as the thrall pushed her further without her knowing it, "I found you so fucking hot I couldn't help myself."
Bo hugged her Valkyrie and whispered into her ear, "Good luck finding footage of me in the evidence room. I was between isles and no security cams are there since I looked. All you'll see is me walking past shelved picking up thing and then going out of sight. You MAY see me my clothes as I just threw them into the view of the camera. TamTam care to check?"
Tamsin broke the embrace sharply and pulled out her phone at the challenge. She adeptly validated her VPN credentials, and accessed a separate network to the precinct camera system.
Sure enough Bo observed Tamsin frown.
Bo then murmured and offered, "Do you want to know what happened my Valkyrie?"
Tamsin just nodded slowly in silent anticipation.
Bo just smirked, knowing that she now had control, "I took a vid of myself Tamtam with my phone. ALL for you. But you have to be a good girl, I may just show a couple seconds of it to you but first, SHOW ME what a slutty Valkyrie you are."
Tamsin just huffed out a laugh, "Oh succubus, like that'll happen."
Bo then adjusted herself now so that she was behind Tamsin and Tamsin now leaned on her. Bo then challenged whispering into Tamsin's ear, "But first, YOU seem hell bent on wanting to blackmail me my Valkyrie. Would you really go through with it?"
"NEVER," Tamsin answered immediately growled.
"Even if I fuck up? Like when I kissed Lauren?" Tamsin mentioned stroking Tamsin's arm then pulling a throw over both of them.
"NEVER. I love you too damn much. I will NEVER betray you my goddess. I am your Valkyrie and bonded partner," Tamsin replied solemnly looking back at Bo.
"So why the perverse interest in collecting all my most intimate moments with an idle threat of sharing them?" Bo asked kissing Tamsin's neck surreptitiously stroking the side of Tamsin's breast under the sheet.
Tamsin wanted to resist and she was holding out, but the thrall and Bo's army of fingers was making it hard. She was just about to blurt it out then Bo clapped her hand over her mouth, hooked her legs around Tamsin's thighs and used her other hand to pull Tamsin in flush to her forcefully.
Tamsin was trapped in Bo's hold and it was solid, even if she tried to escape, Bo's powers and her wiles would easily over power her and then she felt Bo growl aggressively back into her ear, "Don't fucking answer that because your body will tell me if I am right. You still have an evil streak and you want to have dominion over ME. You can't help but to want to topple over Bo, the all-powerful unaligned succubus."
Bo felt Tamsin try to look away and avoid the topic, but Bo kept going as she felt Tamsin tremble a little. "Don't deny it, I see a spike in your aura now. Do you like when I just whored and deflowering myself at the precinct for you? Does it turn you on to no end with knowledge that I just stripped down on your command Valkyrie? You desire even more to topple the goddess of the new order knowing full well that you can hold me hostage to your addictive chi and your fucking smoking warrior body. Ohhhh Tammy, you're a bad one. Making a hot mess already?"
Tamsin before she knew it was putting her hands all over herself.
"God you're fucking evil Tammy. NO ONE is allowed to tell me what to do. But I'll…. FUCK….. I would do it all again for you. You just want to treat me like your own personal Barbie doll don't you? You also can't resist me in uniform," Bo said in a husky voice biting and pulling on Tamsin's lobe.
Just the image to knocking down Bo, a goddess, growing legend amongst the Fae, and a cop drove her mad. All she could do was satisfy herself and her hands were now on auto pilot as they squeezed her tips and teased her folds. Tamsin couldn't resist Bo and she was still in Bo' hold unable to disengage.
Bo purred once more and then whispered into her awaiting ear, "Like a doll, you just want to strip me and ravage me. Cuff me and make me submit to your deliciously evil whims. Then you'll beat me at my own game as you just take me, aggressively wrestling me into sweet submission when I crest over and over at your every command."
Tamsin was close as her body jerked begging for release. She had already breached her core attempting to get release but with 4 already behind her she couldn't do it easily but Bo's words were so compelling, that she was getting closer and closer to the precipice.
"Ohhhh Tammy," Bo growled into her ear, "you know what a bad Valkyrie you are when you make your goddess of the new order whore herself anytime and anywhere. I try so hard to not say your name when I crest but you own me my Valkyrie as my hand unwilling did your FUCKING bidding."
Bo finally stopped covering Tamsin mouth and slowly began to pull the throw covering Tamsin down and away.
"Gods PLEASE. I can't take it anymore!" Tamsin yelled out contorting her body with her hand desperately feeling herself try to get release but couldn't. It wasn't that Bo told her not to, it was more along the lines where calming down would leave her unfulfilled, and cresting was just out of reach.
The sheet finally fell to the floor and Bo loved what she saw. Her Valkyrie in her full naked glory in her most vulnerable state.
"Shit Tamsin," Bo grunted holding Tamsin down more aggressively, "I think I hit the jack pot. Try all you want, but I THINK you need me to take you the rest of the way. What do you need my Valkyrie?"
"FUCK, you know what I need Bo!" Tamsin grunted out and said tightly trying to haplessly achieve release on her own to no avail.
Bo smirked evilly and asked innocently, "Annnnd what might that be?"
"Don't PLAY with me SUCCUBUS!" Tamsin grunted out loudly in painful pleasure.
"OK, so let you go and leave you in the hot sweaty mess you are now?" Bo said playfully releasing her hold slightly.
Tamsin was just so mind wiped she yelled out, "Take me Bo! Make me come! PLEASE PLEASE Pleaseeeeeeeee!"
Bo's hand stared to roam Tamsin's very sensitive body and bought her closer without using her powers and then bit her other ear lobe causing her to yelp in pleasure, "Sure thing Tamtam, but not until we get a couple ground rules out of the way now that we are bonded."
"Fuuuuuuuck! What," Tamsin gurgled in painful pleasure being held at her peak.
Bo smiled and then said, "One: I have a reputation to maintain. You promise to have my back at all times and not expose me or our escapades outside of the people directly involved?"
"Yeeees I promise," Tamsin responded immediately.
"That means that for our threesome, or course Arin can know about how you sent her to both feed and dominate me," Bo cooed.
"Ugggggggggg Yes!" Tamsin replied.
"Good Valkyrie," Bo reassured her turning her around to face her and Bo just kissed her deeply stroking her body in all the right places bringing her a step closer.
"Two: You can do ANYTHING else your heart desires to me BECAUSE only you know what I like and what it takes to keep a succubus but more importantly me healthy and happy. You're dark, and I like you just the way you are," whispered seductively.
"Heck yeeeeees! I LOVE to just beat you at your own game," the competitive Valkyrie agreed with delight.
"Finally, since we have each other's back but more so, since we are bonded, do you swear to be my EQUAL. No fealty, no allegiances. I am just Bo and you are just Tamsin, titles just get in the way," Bo stated between kisses now straddling Tamsin.
"I'd love that Bo, b.…." Tamsin huffed out in her frenzy as Bo kissed her passionately and deeply.
Bo wanted her Valkyrie now and was in total bliss and she helped Tamsin reach her peak as Bo's talented touches took her to the gates of paradise.
Tamsin right as she went over the point of no return, little to her own conscious mind and partly due to the effect to mixing blood, Tamsin yelled, "But I'm your thrall! Gods I love youuuuuuu!"
Bo heard this loud and clear and was about to stop but knew how cruel that would be. Bo continued her ministrations and helped her Valkyrie back down to earth but decided to not engage Tamsin on this. She needed time to think.
Bo did her best to smile and jeered, "And I thought you were tapped out at 4 times too."
"I…. I…. hate you succubus," Tamsin just lazily pointed her finger at Bo as she hugged her and stroked the back of her succubus.
Tamsin felt really connected to Bo now but something inside her felt something weighted heavy on Bo and she didn't know why.
For Bo, this made sense. Tamsin's aura was off a little, her pained look on certain questions Bo asked her and the reason why Tamsin switched tactics on her after she would say no. It all pointed to the fact that Tamsin was indeed her thrall now and Bo had no idea why.
Bo wanted so much to ask Tamsin but now with this new bit of information, Bo knew that any question she gave a thrall would be answered will or not, truthfully. Bo was not that kind of person to force people to do her bidding most of all Tamsin. That also brought up another point. They were now bonded and was that due to the enthrallment? How long was Tamsin her thrall? It could not have been that long since she noted the aura change at about that time Kara pledged her fealty to her.
It however was long enough to make Bo question, 'Was our bonding based on a lie?'
"Hey Bo?" Tamsin asked breaking the hug looking into Bo loving eyes.
"Yea Tamsin," Bo said snapping her thoughts.
"Why are you sad?" Tamsin asked with concern.
"It's nothing. I was thinking about Kendra and team. I kind of stole you from her and it looks like something big is going down," Bo said sheepishly.
"Ahhh," Tamsin replied scrunching her face, "She's a big girl, and her team stands by her."
"Yea, but she's family and she may need our help. Care to come with?" Bo asked.
"You bet," Tamsin said with a click.
Bo lied to Tamsin but she needed Kendra to break the thrall. Any human could break the spell but Kendra was Tamsin's only remaining sister. Kendra also may be able to clear up some of the confusion.
Bo needed to know if Tamsin did this on purpose or was it accidental. If it was accidental, then the solution would be simple, just go through the ritual and fix it. However, if Tamsin did this on purpose, she needed to know why but not badger Tamsin about it since she was not the type of person to force answers out of her.
In this case, Bo would have do the detective work and then make a judgment on how to approach Tamsin on this topic if at all.
Not only that, but Bo didn't do a lot of research on people being her thrall since she was against it. She might have to talk to her mom or read up on it.
Tamsin was worried. She got dressed in her full uniform again with her body armor but she felt Bo. Bo was no longer happy but a little disturbed. Tamsin just hugged Bo and rocked her gently.
Bo was still deep in thought when Tamsin just took her in for a hug. Bo felt better but also could blatantly see Tamsin trying to cheer her up. Also, Bo felt her emotional state which was normally a guessing game to an extent, but not now.
For once they exchanged no words. Bo wasn't ready to talk and Tamsin higher order thinking wasn't working as quickly so therefore her powers of deduction were impaired.
The drive to the precinct 69 was somewhat quiet as they engaged in occasional small talk. Bo tried her best to be cheery and Tamsin did her best to just to stay near and be with her succubus and bonded partner.
By the time Tamsin and Bo got there, everyone on the swat team was staring to load up their trucks and would probably leave in an hour.
As they roamed the halls Chica grabbed Tamsin.
"Hey, hurry up, we leave in an hour. Get your weapons package and let's go. Rapido, rapido!" She ushered Tamsin along.
Tamsin didn't feel any urgency or connection to Chica, although she knew she should. It was the effect of the thrall but Tamsin couldn't override it.
Bo saw her Valkyrie being greeted by her extended family but her reaction was rather muted. It only painfully confirmed that Tamsin was her thrall. She needed to find Kendra before she just blatantly interrogated Tamsin. Bo realized that was why Tamsin showed no rush to leave her this morning.
Before things got out of hand, Bo grabbed Tamsin and pulled her aside, "Hey Tamsin? The 69th is your family just like the rest of the gang. It's ok to work with them and be there for them just like the bond you shared amongst your sisterhood. OK?"
Tamsin processed that Bo just said and felt a little better just then Gilligan high fived her and Tamsin found that she was able to now somewhat relate to the team now.
"Hey Gilligan," Tamsin said as he passed, "Gotta let up on the Drakkar cologne. The suspects may be able to smell you a MILE away."
"It's Axe! And it's for the *LADIES* and I see it's working!" he grinned as he briskly continued to walk away.
Bo saw the change, but she knew that Tamsin was no longer really able to operate autonomously as well. Just then she noticed Kendra come into view in full gear and walked toward them cautiously with a poker face.
Kendra just finished putting away the books Kara got her. She was able to skim most of the pertinent material, but needed more time. From what she deduced, a thrall was meant to serve and maybe protect their succubus. They did so out of the pleasure or the rush they received by obeying them. Also pain was involved when they disobeyed. The biggest thing problem was that thralls had limited ability to think on their own without real direction from their master. A thrall's wants and needs were tuned to what their master desired.
From Kendra's point it view, Tamsin would now alienate or ignore everyone else to a large degree but that wasn't the real problem since Tamsin was tactically sharp as it pertained to the her duties and ability to find, track and arrest criminals. Being a thrall meant that, from what Kendra read, that Tamsin would still be able to fight as she did before, but no longer will she be able to plan or strategize. It would be a severe handicap if Tamsin were to come back. If that were the case, then Kendra had to face the real possibility of putting her in a more remedial support role.
Also, how long could they keep it a secret from Bo, Kendra mused? In Kendra's short experience with Bo, it wouldn't be long.
So many question and so few answers as Kendra loaded her AR and proceeded out to see how the team was doing as they were to deploy in about an hour and from what she knew, they were still missing some key items like anti-tank rounds.
She was walking through the hall to the main area when she was somewhat surprised to see Bo and Tamsin. Tamsin still seemed to be herself since she heard the verb jab she just gave Gilligan.
Kendra approached nodded to Tamsin and Tamsin just mentioned, "Captain."
Bo immediately was the first to speak up, "Hey Kendra, can I talk to you for a minute. In private?"
Kendra needed to have a conversation first with Tamsin so she replied, "I need to brief Tamsin on the op. We can talk after ok?"
Bo ignored Kendra's comment and then turn to Tamsin and rubbed her arm and nicely asked, "Tamsin, can you join Kendra and I after you get all your gear ready?"
Kendra knew she was on the losing end of this one as Tamsin nodded to them both but at the last moment acknowledged Kendra with a nod and left for the locker room.
"It's urgent Kendra," Bo emphasized. "Can we take this in your office?"
"Bo now isn't a good time," Kendra pushed back.
"I wouldn't be asking otherwise," Bo said never giving up her ground.
Kendra didn't appreciate that Bo was calling the shots on her turf. Her duty was to her team and Tamsin. Bo was close, but the matter of stopping the bank robbers from mowing down everyone did take higher priority.
Kendra backed up and began to turn away but said forcefully, "Bo you are about 1 second from…"
Bo interrupted and shouted over her, "She's my thrall and I have no idea HOW or WHY, but you as her SISTER and my friend, I need to find a way out of this for all our sakes."
'Wow that was fast. I guess Bo figured it out in record time,' Kendra mused but rather than explain everything to Bo, Kendra reached into her cargo pants pocket and pull out a sealed letter with Bo's name on the front.
"Bo, Tamsin asked that I give this to you in the event you knew about her… um condition. The reason being is that this letter was written by Tamsin before she went through with it." Kendra stated formally giving the sealed letter to Bo.
Bo looked at the envelope and started to open it since it was Tamsin's writing on the front.
Kendra walked away and then paused and stated with her back turned to Bo, "I don't think we need Tamsin on this one. It looks pretty straight forward." She then briskly walked into the open workspace to get a sitrep from the team.
Bo just stood there and was about to pull the letter out and read it when across the hall she heard, to her surprise, Kenzi call out to her.
"Hey Bo-Bear!" Kenzi called out and skipped over to her, "Where ya been?! More BONDING time I assume? Hey you missed my AWESOME CSI skills. You'd be proud to know it was the Kenzi-Machine that cracked this case wide open." Kendra then pointed to thumbs at herself with glee.
Kenzi was really happy to see Bo. At least Bo didn't look like her heart was broken but something was a little off.
"Come here you," Bo hugged Kenzi even with the letter in her hand, "hey how ya been and what are you doing here?"
"I'm DHS. Got a call from the Doc Hottie and she told me to do what it takes to get team Val off the ground. But it still doesn't prevent me from being totally awesome and showing off my cyberpunk SKILLZ! Other than that my succu-queen, I'm …. Meh. I need my Bo-Ba-Licious back 'cus I need more clients. Although I am totally good flying solo, it not the same ya know?" Kenzi clarified as they broke from the embrace.
"Sooooo," Kenzi stated, "how are you and the detective doin'?"
Bo had no idea how to answer that as she slipped the letter in the jacket pocket to read later but no sooner, Tamsin strode out of the locker room with her AR and full gear. Bo had to admit, Tamsin was looking really tasty but shook that thought off until Tamsin just grabbed her by the open V in her jacket and crashed her lips onto Bo's without warning.
Tamsin kissed Bo. She loved her and just couldn't get enough of her, and now that she was bonded, it was even more so. She could feel that Bo was still a little unsettled but assumed it was just post bonding jitters.
As such Tamsin just whispered quickly into Bo's ear as they parted, "Care to help me out of my gear later and after that, who KNOWS what might happen."
Bo was in heaven and with the promise and image of getting to know Tamsin better gave her a high but was it due to the thrall? She needed time think and read the letter but too much was going on right now.
"Emmmmm, guys I think the Captain is getting a status on everything so Lieutenant Detective Slaminson and Special Agent Bo-Bo, we need to go. Ummmmmmmm you can stop sucking face now," Kenzi looked away trying to not get scarred for life.
They entered and Kendra was still talking to Hump Day but stopped when she saw Bo and Tamsin stand next to Jane and Maura. Jane was now dressed in full body armor still adjusting the straps on her armor but also had an AR. Maura was helping her out. Kenzi went back to her work station.
"God I hate this. It makes me look like a guy," Jane whined adjusting her pony tail and pulling at the vest neck line.
"At least functionally this vest and Kevlar undercoating should work Jane, but it may not stop a round from a high powered rifle like they may be using head on," Maura said nicely to try to assure her.
"Been there remember Maura, maybe this will help out with my iron deficiency," Jane retorted sarcastically.
"Highly unlikely as live ammunition not only eviscerates tissue and organs it comes in contract with efficiently killing its subjectes first, the ballistic properties of the projectile alloy composes of…. You're being sarcastic aren't you?" Maura queried stopping herself from elaborating more.
Jane just grinned innocently moving her attention to Bo briefly until Kendra spoke up.
Kendra thought that it was probably best for the whole team to know who Bo was since they all haven't met, but in addition, she needed something more plausible for why another person just popped up late in the game.
"OK everyone," Kendra announced. "Special Agent Bo Dennis from the 39th," Kendra gestured to her. "She is riding with our team as an observer today, however, it doesn't preclude her participation if the need arises."
"Reports from the teams posted undercover outside both banks show an all clear. No signs of our suspects or unsubs thus far. We just got a report that the armored car company doing the pickups that today moving forward, the banks scheduled their pick up 30 minutes later. I believe that our suspects know this but will show up at the old time and just claim a mess up in scheduling," Kendra stated to the team formally.
Jane then interjected, "That's a perfect cover. Everyone at the banks are use to seeing them at that former time, so their guard would naturally be down."
"That means they have feelers or someone on the inside at the armored car company ," Bo interjected.
"Si, we kind of figured," Chica stated, "so we only engaged the owner at Crinks Security and no one else."
Bo was next to Jane and looked at her and Maura.
Just then Maura turned to Bo and out stretched her hand past Jane to shake Bo's.
Jane whispered, "I'm Maura Isles, chief medical examiner from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts."
Bo shook her hand and noted she wore no rings and was well dressed but she seems quite intelligent judging by what she said to Jane's sarcastic remark.
"Jane Rizzoli, Detective, Boston Homicide," Jane said formally shaking Bo's hand firmly but still paying attention to Kendra.
Kendra continued, "Thanks of the owner of Crinks, he loaned us 2 of his armored trucks which just finished maintenance and are scheduled to be back into rotation tomorrow. That will allow us at least the ability to block them in when they make a move. We also have our chopper already at precinct 71 on standby with Anjali Patel, one of the sharpshooters from the 75st in case we need air support. Our APC unbeknownst to me is down for repairs so your upgraded suburbans will have to do. Our Anti-Tank rocket launchers are still in bound…. Carrort Top, what is the status and ETA of….."
A voice with a light British accent from the back of the room spoke up and it came from a muscular dirty blonde man in his mid to late thirties. He had the ranking of a Colonel dressed in standard BDUs. Jones was his last name apparent on his uniform.
"I hope I'm not too late to the party. I'm Colonel Casey Jones. I was in the area Captain, and brought to you, 2 hummers with light tank armorments and a 50 cal turret on each used for taking down heavily fortified enemy positions. Also I have Anti-Tank rocket launchers as well. My team of 6 is at your disposal ma'am," he reported succinctly. He stood at attention but cracked a wide smile at Jane who looked like she was about to melt into a pile of goo any moment.
Kendra just looked at him confused on where the heck he came from but realized that this was the Casey Jane was taking about. From the looks of Jane's giddy eyed, lovely dovey expression she conveyed, Casey and Jane were intimately involved. Favors from friends always helped as she just stated, "Thank you Colonel, I really appreciate it."
Bo was still thinking about Tamsin especially since Tamsin was now holding her hand, but the fact that multiple auras spiked in the area caught her attention. 3 to be exact.
Jane's and Casey's spiked since they were a couple Bo deduced just by the sheer intensity, but something was odd about Maura's. It spiked too to a small degree but it shifted more to jealousy.
Bo, thought about it for a second and remembered that Jane's and Maura's auras were both pretty intense when they met. That made them friends but REALLY REALLY good ones. It bordered something more and the slight jealous streak kind of confirmed what Maura stance was.
Bo was in no position to judge and just let it be. She already was having more than enough issues keeping her own house straight in the relationship department.
Casey ripped his eyes away from Jane then replied in a serous manner, "We never forget our own courageous men and women here or abroad that safeguard us. Mr. Morales and his gang need to go away for good."
"Jeeez, this will be like 30 against maybe 5. It's like bringing a Gatling gun to a knife fight," Kenzi blurted out incredulously.
"We need to ensure that we all get home alive to our families. The last time this happened, it wasn't really about a robbery. It was a slaughter that happened to also be a robbery as a bonus in their sick twisted minds," Kendra clarified to all present. "That memory of what happened to the innocent bystanders, mothers, fathers, children and to the Boston PD NEVER faded. It is time to put this demon down permanently which still haunts many of us relentlessly. We will do this today without a single loss of life on our side if we band together as one."
The remainder of the time, Kendra went over logistics with her team, DHS, BPD, the marines under Casey, and the 39th which was really only Bo. Kenzi was right. In no other time did Kendra see this surge of support occur. Jane from the way she acted and talked didn't really want revenge which was refreshing, but she wanted justice. Somehow Jane had managed to keep her emotions in check on this op even after seeing several of her friends and acquaintances at the BPD go away. She must have had a strong support system.
Drake, Alex, and Talan did finally introduce themselves to Bo.
When it was time to depart, Tamsin went with Kendra as Bo knew that they needed time together and Bo went with Kenzi in her sports car. This was essentially sister bonding time.
Drake did intercept Bo in the parking lot at the last minute and give her the case with the Dragonov and pointed out the jewelry in one of the pockets. Kenzi made sure to salaivate over the deadly work of art before they put it away in the trunk.
"DAMMIT Tamsin! You're my fucking SISTER too and you just had to pull this stupid SHIT on me!" Kendra yelled throwing her hands up in the air briefly still driving to the bank site.
Tamsin had no idea why Kendra was upset but just let her express herself. She was about to respond with a sarcastic comeback, but knew it was wise not to.
Kendra continued getting more irate by the moment, "Did you even think that your action of thralling yourself to Bo is the most SELFISH fucking thing you did?! Bo wants YOU Tamsin, NOT your fucking compliance and NOT a slave you idiot. If she wanted that, then she can just thrall everyone. Laruen, Dyson, the person down the street you fucking name it. And worst of all, you forgot that YOUR callous action affects your family. Bo, Me, and it will ripple to everyone else. And Bo. She FUCKING KNOWS already and I gave her your note. You don't give her enough damn credit. She fucked up. We are all human. That is what we do. Eff up!"
"Bo is Fae," Tamsin jabbed back.
Kendra just snapped back to her monologue, "Bo is HUMAN. She was raised by HUMANS and she thinks like one. Also it seems that being Fae doesn't make you perfect either!" Kendra mentioned exasperated. "As a matter of fact, being Fae only seems to make you people even more fracked up in the head as you bumble through your pathetic lives. When I first found out about the Fae, I wanted to be like Kenzi but now after reading up and seeing all this SHIT, I don't know if I want that now!"
Kendra paused and glared at Tamsin.
"Are you even fucking in there? The Valkyrie warrior and sister I once knew!"
"Wow, what got your panties in a bunch? Get over it. It was my decision to love Bo and give everything I had to the relationship. I bet you can't even tell Dyson you love him and you dare call me a chicken shit and cop out? Please, spare me your feeble attempts at wisdom," Tamsin spat back somewhat angrily as she huffed and looked out the window.
Kendra knew by the sheer fact that Tamsin responded in such a scathing manner became aware that the Tamsin she knew was still in there somewhere and that she wasn't talking to a brick wall. Tamsin was right but Kendra still continued her fierce tirade.
"Arin is dead and IT WAS A FREAKING ACCIDENT. Bo was valiantly defending you and Arin from serving an evil all powerful god for Christ's sake! She went against the bond of family. HER blood-related FATHER. All for YOU. And Arin will be reborn anyway, so her death was not in vain."
"I… I just can't take that I won't see my own blood sister again in my last life," Tamsin stammered out trying to justify it over the effects of the thrall.
Kendra exhaled sharply to show her disbelief, "AND Lauren? She gave up her stake and any claim to Bo willingly FOR YOU. Yes, although she never told me and Lauren freaking sent Talan, Drake, Kenzi, and Alex to make sure you two got back together and to SAFE GUARD *YOU* from harm. Shit, if I were Laruen, I'd be stabbing you in the back several times by now maybe even taking out a hit on you. Do you have ANY IDEA how hard it must be for Lauren to swallow her pride and give up her girlfriend to someone she probably HATES without a fight! Dyson told me that Lauren literally balled her eyes out for an hour in his arms after we left the church all because she gave away Bo to the last person she thought she would. Do you have ANY IDEA what your family is doing for you. For Bo. FOR YOUR MARRIAGE! Ummm UNION… partnership… whatever."
Tamsin was trying hard to keep up. The thrall was suppressing her deeper thoughts, feelings and emotions but Kendra WAS her sister so she rallied hard against its effects.
Marriage?
Tamsin never thought of the bond that way. It was in a way so human but oddly normal. She thought of her relationship with Bo a phenomenon to say the least. They were polar opposites after all in terms of Fae species.
Tamsin also realized that Kendra actually had Lauren's side and never considered how hard it was to just not move in on her turf. Tamsin did kind of leave Bo at the church all vulnerable which in that case, Lauren could have easily moved in. Instead she gave Bo away to Tamsin. It was unexpected Tamsin realized and that must have hurt Lauren. The know-it-all doctor being trumped and humbled by a dark evil doing Valkyrie. Also, if someone tried to steal Bo from her, she wouldn't do the same. Tamsin would murder them and their family.
Valkyries were dangerously possessive especially when the bond came into play.
Tamsin then remembered that it was that very reason why she thralled herself. Bo was hers and hers alone and no one had the right to move her heart like the doc did.
TRAITOR.
But that extreme emotion flitted away easily.
Tamsin finally responded slowly, "If Bo breaks the thrall too soon, Lauren and everyone she cares about, heck even Bo will end up dead at my hands. Do you understand me?"
Kendra just erupted, "You are not the Valkyrie Rota! Rota wasn't nearly even a quarter of the Valkyrie YOU are. She was inexperienced and had an innocent view of the world but not you. You are Tamsin. The Valkyrie that is both NOBLE and kind but had also done the worst of the worst. You have a jaded, cynical and morose, even morbid view of this freaking world. So you are copping out on me… on us."
Kendra paused and looked over to Tamsin briefly to see a slight expression of pain and exertion on her face and continued, "You told me to forgive Dyson, which I am. As hard as it is to forgive Dyson for being a shifter, you told me to suck it up and move forward. I sleep with the enemy and it is I that has to swallow my pride and I know I can do it. I just need a little more….."
"TIME," Tamsin interjected. "That is ALSO the reason why I did this Kendra, don't you see?"
Kendra continued annoyed, "And you think by doing some sort of magic spell to not feel, you think that the emotions all just solve themselves? No. It just means that YOU are a coward. I hate to say this Tamsin. Fucking grow some bitch. You can control these feelings. You did it before, these are no different, they are just a little stronger. And if you can't handle it, your family and I are here to help. It's amazing how you just wrote us all off and I think that is the lone Valkyrie in you."
Kendra finally calmed down and solemnly stated, "We don't run away from our emotions, to succeed we need to be brave and face them. You know they say that over 50% of marriages fail because there are always outside forces trying to tear it apart all the time. Marriage doesn't mean happily ever after, it just says that you both promise to work on it without fail even in the worst of times. Tamsin, you just checked out of your marriage in a way and Bo now has to … WILL carry you. THAT is egregiously unfair to her. You may be giving everything to her, but it was the entirety of your personality she wanted and just not the good stuff. Bo is probably out there reading your letter now and crying her eyes out because she will blame herself for this. I hope you or Bo can fix this."
Tamsin was in shock and still processing this but responded, "I'm sorry sister. I just can't handle my life coming to an end on Bo's terms. I must be by her side now and deny myself. I also miss Arin so damn much and most of all I am afraid of hurting Bo … and her frien… family. I'm afraid of awakening my demons inside."
A single tear rolled off Tamsin's cheek. From that alone Kendra knew that Tamsin, her sister, finally heard her. For being a thrall, Tamsin still had enough fight in her after all. Thralls that gave up fighting became mindless beings. Kendra just hoped that Tamsin kept up the good fight.
"We all have our demons Tamsin. I have mine but I am still working on overcoming them and you can take them head on if you choose. Avoiding or running away from them has the effect to them still being there later down the line. Your time you spent not dealing with them may make the situation you are avoiding worse actually," Kendra replied and patted Tamsin's back.
Another tear drop fell from Tamsin's cheek.
Kendra quickly changed topics before Tamsin either shut down or melted down.
"I skimmed Arin's diary toward the end sections earlier today. She said that your powers granted by Bo were small, but they were amplified due to the depths of your emotions."
"You have Arin's diary? How'd you get a hold of that?" Tamsin asked wiping her face.
"Kara gave it to me and it unlocked for me," Kendra said with a slight smile.
"Oh, and only I thought I had access to it," Tamsin smirked but knew that Arin's diary would unlock for people whose intentions were good and pure and apparently, Kendra, a human, was.
"Tamsin, I read being a thrall meant that you feel only certain emotions and to a degree. You will never feel to extremes. That means that your powers which made you stronger than any Valkyrie out there was in large result from your emotions. So be careful, you may not be able to use your powers. Not that you can use them here in this human only region, but just in case," Kendra clarified.
'SHIT,' Tamsin thought.
Kenzi followed leisurely in the back of the convoy headed to the bank site.
It was quiet in the car, too quiet as Bo was reading a letter in the passenger seat.
Kenzi noticed how pained Bo face looked as she read the letter from Tamsin.
The silence was finally broken when Bo dropped the letter on her lap with a loud slap and began to wipe away tears.
"Bo-Bo? Are you ok?" Kenzi asked with caution knowing that Bo was on the verge of an emotional breakdown.
"Noooo," Bo exhaled as calmly as she could, looking up to the car's low canopy. Several more tears streaked rapidly down her face.
Bo didn't even look at Kenzi and just kept staring off, talking to the car's top, "How can I love someone so much but still manage to fuck everything up. I need to fix this like Tamsin said, but how?" Bo just closed eyes and shook her head slowly at this turn of fate.
"You're my super awesome Bo-bin-ator and if there is one thing I know, you ALWAYS come out on top… errrr speaking metaphorically. Tamsin is a tough cookie and will still be there for you, I know it," Kenzi mentioned in a soothing manner reaching out to hold Bo's hand.
Bo pulled back her hand and just erupted in anger and emotional distress, "Of course! She WILLINGLY made herself my thrall, that's why!"
"What?!" Kenzi didn't expect that at all. Tamsin VOLUNTEERED to be Bo's thrall? Why? It was the last thing the resolutely independent Tamsin would ever do.
Bo just YELLED slapping the dash board to vent, "'Cus I keep screwing up! First I kissed Lauren in such a way that, due to the bond, hurt Tamsin. Then I chose Tamsin who is now insanely jealous of the Lauren now after that kiss and only magnified it by several times once she got all her memories back. Finally, I killed Arin in Valhalla when I got into a fight with my father."
Bo threw her hands in the air in a frenzied stated but now her voice was cracking as she concluded, "Tamsin can't handle the fact that her life is ending without anyone else like Arin to take care of me. Tamsin also wants to kill Lauren the first chance she gets, her security team and maybe wants to slap the live crap out of me! She became my thrall knowing FULL WELL… That .. that… she might turn on me, the one person she … L… LOVES…"
Bo finally leaned over and just gave up and cried putting her hands to cover her face, though her hitched breathing, she wailed, "Tamsin, my Valkyrie, finally ran out of forgiveness for me Kenz. She needs time to forgive me and give me time to make amends to our relationship. B.. But I don't kn… know when to break the thrall and I… I don't know how fix thissssssssssssss."
Kenzi was driving but felt Bo's pain and even felt for her dilemma. All she could do was to reach over rub her back in sympathy.
Bo just continued, tears flowing freely in her distraught state, "When sh.. she didn't bring me to Odin, she GAVE me her life. When she saluted me …. Sh … she g… gave me her heart. NOW with the thralling she… she loves me so damn m… much that she gave me the LAST vestige of herself to me. Her soullllllllllllll! THERE'S NOTHING LEFT FOR HER TO GIVE Meeeeeeeeeee."
Bo squeaked out, "GOD is this the pr… price of love she has to pay to be with a succubus?! What my father had to offer her … is by far better!"
Kenzi knew this was a really tough break for Bo and looked over to the now broken sister, friend and succubus next to her. Kenzi softly comforted her and assured her the best she could.
"Tamsin didn't think about it that way Bo. She spent the latter half of her lives surrounded by evil people, thoughts and deeds, and she is now back to being righteous and just. You alone restored her and asked for nothing in return. Bo, you FORGAVE her debts when she had no right to be even in your presence. Your absolution and love you showered her with was worth FAR more to her than what she could ever give to you. What she gave you Bo was a cup of water when you had given her the whole ocean."
Bo was at a loss for words. She was broken, but now she had to be strong to carry them both.
Kenzi observed that Bo was a total mess to say the least and empathized with her. No one ever affected her the way Tamsin did. She also never took Tamsin to love Bo that much, but Tamsin had to deal and this was probably the only way she knew how. As for her Bo, this was going to be a long bumpy ride and it will take a village to fix it.
Somehow.
