Lauren couldn't help but grin at this extremely feisty human. "You want to know my abilities now when you almost died."
Kenzi forced the best smile she was able to muster through the pain. "You owe me doc you kinda of made me a cannibal without giving me the heads up."
The fae doctor gave up she knew the goth was persistent and would get her way. "It is similar to Bo's. She is the fae of seduction and I am the fae of desire."
Kenzi scrunched her face, "Eww barf you heal on sexual chi too?"
"You don't let anyone finish," the pothien pointed back and forth from Bo to Kenzi, "you are the same like that. I don't heal on sexual chi I just heal faster than a human. If I broke my arm and I wrapped it by the next day all healed. Not as fast as Bo but still effective."
The petite goth was staring at the blonde fae open mouthed, "Your Buffy the Vampire Slayer?"
No one knew as many shows or movies as this human. The pothien couldn't stop herself from laughing, "Actually it's a notable comparison."
"You have slayer powers that is your ability," Kenzi pressed on she wasn't going to let it go till she had the answer.
Lauren shook her finger, "I didn't say that I said my ability to heal was like that. Do you really want to see what I can do because it is similar to Bo?" When Kenzi nodded the doctor continued, "Any volunteers?" Both Bo and Dyson said they would. She found this fun since the wolf knew her fae powers. "I will pick Dyson for this." The pothien gazed over at the shifter when he looked into her eyes her pupils dilated as she spoke to him, "Dyson I want you to serenade Kenzi." While she was talking to him the wolf appeared to be in a trance his whole body was limp as his eyes were locked onto hers.
Her pupils returned to normal and Dyson seemed to be himself. He faced Kenzi and started singing, "All of my life, Where have you been, I wonder if I'll ever see you again, And if that day comes, I know we could win, I wonder if I'll ever see you again…"
The fae doctor caught the shifter's eye, "Enough." Dyson stopped singing cleared his throat and sat up straight. Kenzi and Bo were hysterical.
"Dude that's what vamps can do I seen it on True Blood," Kenzi loved that power.
"That's what vampires on TV can do not fae that are Vampire like. They just drink blood, can float and don't need to breathe." Lauren corrected.
"What was that," this time is was the succubus who was intrigued.
"I can compel you to do what I want." The doctor had a playful grin on.
"You can compel anyone?" Bo was impressed that Lauren didn't even need to get close to someone to use her ability.
"No one is immune to it." Lauren normally wasn't so open about her abilities but since Kenzi was in pretty shitty shape she decided to just answer all the questions now. One less thing she would be keeping from the succubus.
Bo's hand started to glow red as she touched Lauren's arm, "And what do you think of me doctor?"
"Your ability doesn't work on everyone," the fae doctor chuckled at the brunette's failed attempt. She caught Bo's eye as her pupils dilated, "Pull me into the hottest most passionate kiss that you have ever done." When the doctor's eyes returned to normal the succubus pushed her down onto a chair straddling her as she grabbed the pothien's shirt pulling her into the kiss that the blonde just requested. Only when Kenzi started to make gagging sounds did the doctor pull away breaking the compulsion.
Bo got up with a smirk on, "For the record you never need to compel me to do that."
Lauren returned the smirk before putting on a more serious face when she turned to her patient. "Kenzi it is safe for you to go home but take it easy for the rest of the night. And we are even now." The succubus asked her if she was going to come by that night but the fae doctor told her she had work to catch up on. The wolf picked up the human carrying her to the car. When all three left the blonde fae went over to the Blood King. "I'm right I know she is your granddaughter."
Trick covered his eyes making sure that he she wasn't going to use her compulsion on him. "I am. How did you know?"
"There is something about her that I can't explain she is different from any fae I have ever met and she is strong. Too strong to be a regular succubus but the granddaughter of the Blood King that makes more sense. Stop covering your eyes I wouldn't compel you."
"Her mother was my daughter Aifie. For now that is all you need to know. Her mother is dangerous and I fear that she will return here looking for Bo. You must not tell her Lauren," Trick was not asking this of her and she knew it.
She was never disrespectful to elder fae but in this particular circumstance it was different. "For now," was all the doctor could say before she headed out the door.
NEXT DAY – LIGHT FAE MEDICAL COMPOUND
Bo came storming into the medical center grabbing the pothien's arm. "Something is wrong. I can feel it. I am irritated and I can't think clearly. Everything is getting under my skin and annoying the shit out of me." The brunette rambled on as she was talking to the doctor.
Lauren raised an eyebrow at her while she watched her pace at a hyper speed. She took Bo's hand bringing her over to an examination table. Just as she was about to start looking her over Kenzi came marching in going on about some of the same things. The fae doctor went over to her checking her first since the succubus seemed to be a little calmer. The brunette stared at the two watching as it seemed they were starting to flirt with each other. Bo squinted her eyes because it appeared that the two were kissing and all over each other right in front of her. Just when she was going to say something her eyes focused and she watched as Lauren finished giving Kenzi an exam. Before the blonde fae was able to check the succubus out she hopped off the table leaving the medical facility with Kenzi.
The pothien rubbed her head knowing that something had to be up after all it was these two. She picked up the phone dialing the shifter, "What did she do now because Bo was in here all hyper and paranoid same as Kenzi."
"I saw them earlier. I was with Hale checking out a string of murders when our two favorite people happened to be right across the street at a house where one of the murders took place. I told her to keep an eye out that was the last I spoke with them," the shifter was slightly nervous now. The tiny human was barely healed from what happened the other day and now she was yet again in danger. He was starting to accept this was going to be ritual.
Lauren closed her eyes as she sighed. It was definitely trouble. "Tell me what you know and I will start to look into it." Dyson explained everything he could about the cases. He told Hale to go check on the duo while he went back over things to make sure nothing was left out. The blonde fae hung up the phone glanced at her notes and started to flip through books. It was when she was on the page that described a Djieiene that she knew she hit bull's eye. She held the paper up of the notes she took against what the book said she turned to call Dyson and slammed into the Ash.
"You found a Djieiene?" He was giving her a stern look.
The pothien glanced down knowing the Ash preferred her not looking him dead in the eye considering her ability. "It is possible."
"I assume it has to do with why the unaligned succubus stopped here before with her human friend. Is it with her," he really wasn't asking he knew that the pothien was taking an interest in her. By Lauren doing this much research told him all he needed to know. Her silence confirmed it. "Call a quarantine in my name. If you want the succubus to live I suggest you work fast." With that he left.
The fae doctor cursed him out a little under her breathe as she called the head of security letting them know a quarantine needed to be carried out at the location. She then stepped outside of the facility calling Dyson, "We have a problem, please tell me Hale found something?"
The shifter was just leaving one of the houses, "It's a Djieiene all the houses are covered in spider webs. It also goes with the signs Bo and Kenzi are showing. And I sent Hale there."
"Well it gets worse the Ash had me call a quarantine on Bo's house anyone who is in it is stuck there and we have little to no time to find it and kill it."
"I suggest we work quickly doctor," the shifter was pissed at the pothien's carelessness now the Ash caught her and time was working against them even more so then before. He had to worry about all three of the people in the house or the Ash would have them killed. "Meet me at the Dal." He knew if there was one person that could know more it would be the Blood King.
DAL
The two light fae just finished telling Trick all they knew about the Djieiene. He listened silently while they talked knowing only his granddaughter could get wrapped up in this. She certainly was a magnet for problems. When they were done giving him all the details he answered, "I know someone who likes to collect rare and dangerous species." He gave them the name of the only person that came to mind. Dyson left to get the guy while Lauren stayed with Trick.
"How are things with Bo," he was wondering how his young fae granddaughter was getting into the heart of the pothien.
"Well they aren't boring," the blonde fae gave a mild laugh. "We aren't actually together but she is different."
The Blood King watched his long time friend as she seemed to be having an inner struggle with her answer. He knew the fae doctor never really dated and was extremely cautious with who she trusted. He liked her for Bo it was just what she needed someone smart and level headed like the doctor. The only problem was he needed to make sure that the pothien was going to be sticking around. "I think you are the one person that she would listen to. That is a good thing Lauren. She could use guidance."
The fae doctor cocked her head slightly while she addressed the Blood King trying not to come off as too aggressive, "And what will she think of me when she finds out I knew her mother's name and her grandfather while she thinks she has no family?"
Trick knew Lauren was never one to curb her tongue so her brassiness really wasn't shocking. "We will tell her Lauren but now isn't the time." He wanted to say secrets shouldn't be an issue for her since no one knew too much about the blonde fae but he didn't want to push it. Lauren was getting close to Bo if pushed she most likely would tell her everything and Trick wasn't ready for that.
Dyson came back in with guy who was talking about how much he loved his spider. The fae doctor was wrapped up in reading about the Djieiene to try and see if there was anything she missed while the shifter was questioning the man. Lauren jumped up from the bar stool. "The heart has to be destroyed in order to kill it and it's venom to wear off." She was pulling out her cell phone about to call Bo when another paragraph caught her eye. She dropped her hand that was holding the phone as she glanced over at the guy Dyson was speaking to. "The Djieiene hides its heart where it feels it would be protected." The Blood King and the shifter now looked at the man as well all of them knew without saying it where the heart would be.
Lauren had her stethoscope in her ears as she was listening till she found the extra heart beat. Trick knocked the guy out while the pothien cut him open pulling the heart out before stabbing it killing the poisonous spider. Immediately after she grabbed her phone calling the Ash's head of security letting them know to call of the cleansing in his name. She glanced over at the shifter next to her.
"Next time try being more careful with your research so you don't put Kenzi's life in danger. Her being around fae all the time does that just fine without your help," he didn't care if the edge in his voice was harsh he wanted it to be.
Lauren wasn't fazed by his words or there tone. "Try being honest and telling her how you feel or are you too good for the truth?"
Dyson narrowed his eyes at his long time friend, "Are you?" Everyone knew there was more to the pothien then they could find out but learned to appreciate the mystery that was her. Since she was now attacking him over the truth he didn't care if he went back at her for the same thing. It was the pot calling the kettle black.
NEXT DAY – LAUREN'S PLACE
The doctor's cell phone was ringing as she was coming out of the shower trying to answer it seeing that it was the succubus calling. "What did you do now?"
"Where do you live?" The brunette's voice was shaky and labored.
Lauren gave her directions and right after the succubus said she would be there shortly. The pothien glanced in the mirror knowing there probably wasn't a point in getting dressed judging by the sound of the brunette. She wrapped the towel around her and waited till she heard the buzzer. She hit it so the elevator would take Bo up to her Loft. When the elevator doors opened the pothien wasn't prepared to see the succubus like that. Bo was literally dripping with blood. It was just pouring down the sides of her. The fae doctor didn't say anything as she let the towel drop before pulling the brunette inside to her. The succubus responded immediately as they both got Bo out of her bloody clothes.
HOURS LATER – LIGHT FAE COMPOUND
The fae doctor was sitting at her desk looking over some research she was working on when Bo came barging in. The corners of Lauren's mouth twitched as she tried to fight the smile that was struggling to come out. She didn't want to encourage her behavior but she was getting used to it. "When I left this morning I thought today was going to be a quiet day." They had a morning filled with hot steamy erotic kind of sex. Neither one getting enough of the other as they continued their sexcapades till Lauren saw the time knowing she had to be in work shortly. The sex in the shower was so passionate she was sure the brunette couldn't possibly have one more orgasm. Thankful she was right as Bo seemed ready to pass out and that's why the fae doctor was sure today was going to be nice and quiet with no unaligned succubus filled problems yet here they were, again.
The succubus gave a sarcastic smile at the doctor she was falling in love with, "Ha ha, I need you to get me in with the Ash I have to talk to him."
Now the pothien wasn't smiling as she fell back into her chair gazing at the brunette with the most serious expression she ever had when talking to her. "Why," it was the only word the blonde fae could get out.
Bo stood in front of Lauren propping herself against her desk. "I talked to this guy Seigfreid, he said that this fae on death row would know about my mother. I went there to talk to her and Lou Ann was framed."
The blonde fae dropped forward on her desk letting her head hit it lightly. She softly tapped her head on her desk as she thought how this could be happening to her. Always so careful and calculated on top of her game and then came Bo. This suddenly became her life. She finally lifted her head back up to talk to Bo, "I thought I screwed you senseless this morning. Don't you sleep?"
The brunette gave a seductive smirk at the doctor's reference. She leaned into the pothien pressing her lips roughly against hers asking permission to enter her mouth as her tongue slid in. The blonde fae was happy to oblige but only for a moment knowing in her place of work. Lauren put her hand on Bo's shoulder pushing her back. The succubus sighed, "You did screw me senseless which is probably why I want to speak to your boss."
Lauren picked up the phone as she dialed the Ash. She told him that Bo wanted to speak with him thinking he would dismiss it shocked that he said to bring her there. The pothien got up grabbing the brunette's hand, "Be careful speaking with him. Try to be respectful."
The succubus did the exact opposite of what the fae doctor asked of her. Letting the Ash know he was an ass for not doing anything to help out an innocent fae even if she was Dark. Lauren was shaking her head in the corner Bo being so young and unaligned she wasn't understanding the politics. When the brunette stormed out the Ash nodded to the pothien that it was okay she follow after her. It didn't take her long to catch up to her, "Are you insane? Lou Ann is Dark Fae we cannot get involved Bo for so many reasons. It is stepping on the Dark's toes and their decisions."
"I think I might be the only sane one. You will all stand by while an innocent fae dies for a crime she didn't do and you will not lift a finger because she isn't Light Fae. Would you let me die since I am not Light?" Bo couldn't understand the logic behind it. She didn't care Light or Dark innocent was innocent there was nothing more to it.
"That isn't a fair comparison and you know it," the pothien's tone softened.
"Do I," Bo was still pissed that they weren't going to help this fae. She stormed away not wanting to waste more time. She needed to find who killed this fae's kids so Bo could bring the real murderer to justice.
The blonde fae was standing there when the Ash came up beside her, "I know you have been spending time with her Lauren. I am assuming it is to try and persuade her to align with the Light Fae. The fae that was involved was Vex a Mesmer. He is a favorite of the Morrigan make sure she stays away from him if she attacks him it could cause Evony to want the succubus dead. I don't think either of us are ready for that."
The doctor was pissed it seemed like everyone was using the succubus in some way. Trick and Dyson knew that Aifie was her mother and Trick was her grandfather. Thanks to her pursuing this she knew it as well. She had her own secrets she had to keep from the brunette and now this. She didn't face the Ash when she talked to him since she had an overwhelming desire to punch him in his face. "She doesn't listen to reason."
"She is a succubus use your other talents to distract her," he walked away after he hinted for Lauren to continue to sleep with the brunette. That really angered her but he was right if Bo went after Vex it could have deadly consequences for her. The pothien went into her office sat down and got to work. When she was finished mixing chemicals she grabbed her stuff before leaving going over to the succubus's house hoping she would be there but first she had one stop to make.
She pulled into the Dal's parking lot. The pothien went in trying to locate Trick. When she didn't spot him in the pub itself she went by the door to his chambers knocking on it. The Blood King answered it surprised to see the blonde fae there. "Lauren what's wrong?"
The doctor handed him a few vials. "You have connections. Make sure this is switched with the lethal injection they are going to give Lou Ann. This will make it appear that she is dead but she won't be. Someone needs to be in the morgue when she wakes up to sneak her out. I can't think of anyone better then you. You want me to lie to your granddaughter then I need you to pull this off."
Trick never saw Lauren so demanding. "I will take care of it. Thank you Lauren you are one of my greatest friends." As he saw her leaving he pressed on, "Where are you going now?"
"To continue to save your granddaughter seems like one of us should be," and she was out of ear shot before the Blood King could respond. He knew he would have to talk to her and smooth things over but not today. He would see how she was doing tomorrow. For now he had a task of his own as he glanced down at the vials in his hand.
CRACK SHACK
When the fae doctor pulled up in front of the the brunette's house she was happy to see her car there. She was mentally cursing herself out for doing this. The pothien was trying to reason with herself. It wasn't like this was something new she has been sleeping with the brunette for awhile now. They both immensely enjoyed it and after this morning how much more could Bo really handle. Lauren was older and a more powerful fae of sexual desire. If anyone could wear down a succubus it should be the fae doctor. She got out of her car as she strolled over to Bo's door knocking on it.
As soon as she answered the door Lauren stepped inside going over to the succubus. She put her hands on the side of Bo's face staring deeply into her eyes as she dragged the brunette into a fiery kiss. Letting her hands glide down the succubus's body stopping at the waist band of her pants. She quickly unbuttoned and unzipped them as she slipped her hand in never breaking the kiss. Bo was the one to pull away to let out a heavy moan as she felt the doctor enter her. The brunette let her hands drop to her waist as she pushed her pants further down not wanting the pothien to slow down the pace she was moving at. The succubus thrust her hips with the same rhythm the blonde fae was using. Lauren was using her one free hand to slip under Bo's shirt letting her fingers tease her erect nipples as the doctor was licking her neck.
Hours later they were in the brunette's bed sound asleep. The pothien woke with a start as she gazed over at the succubus. She was in a deep sleep. I guess after almost a full morning of sex followed by late afternoon throughout the night was bound to do that. The blonde fae actually lost count on how many orgasms both of them had. She even felt too good to move but it wasn't an option for her. She discreetly got dressed before leaving the bedroom. The pothien saw her human best friend passed out on the couch. Lauren was barely breathing till she got outside. She wanted to just scream at everything that was happening. Her car purred to life and for once she was happy she spent the money on the expensive vehicle. The engine was quiet there was no way it woke anyone sleeping inside. The clock in her car read 3am. She pulled away from Bo's house heading towards Carpe Noctem.
CARPE NOCTEM
The doctor pulled into the parking lot slamming her car door shut as she went into the club. The place was empty but she knew he would be there, "VEX."
"Looky looky lou it is the light fae doctor out in a dark fae club. Someone is being naughty," The Mesmer came out from the shadows.
Lauren spun around to face him and Vex quickly closed his eyes. "Bo is going to find out you killed Lou Ann's kids and she is going to come here to kick your ass. Which you completely deserve," she got close to the dark fae, "Don't think of hurting her."
"That's just plain rude she doesn't even know my reasons. I was just following orders doctor," he still had his eyes shut which also meant he couldn't use his ability on the doctor.
The pothien didn't move away from him, "She has ways that she finds things out so when she learns it was you try and disappear." The fae doctor turned around ready to leave there. Till she heard Vex talking from behind her, "And what about you love? What happens when the succubus finds out who you really are?"
