Holding Tight, Letting Go
Note – This story is a little sad in some parts so you may need a tissue. It takes place the next morning after Dyson, Tamsin and Bo found Kenzi. Dyson is still under the doubt but its wearing off and Tamsin is a little OOC along with Kenzi. Bo is just worried about Kenzi at the moment and doesn't want to think about Trick told her. Also it will be from First person POV and 3rd Pov. Just to let ya know...
Chapter 3: Another Visitor
(3rd Person Pov – Couple Hours Later – At the Dal)
It was around 5:00 pm and the Dal was closed. Hale had told the other leaders that he would need a few days to sort out some business with his old partner. Dyson, however, was quiet which was odd because he was usually the one who was all for finding her. Tamsin hadn't said anything about seeing the girl because she didn't know what good it would do. Bo was still crying in Lauren's arms. Anyone that walked into the Dal would have thought someone died.
Trick was standing there going over what Kenzi had written in both notes. It mentioned that someone was after her but she hadn't mentioned who. She also told them that she would try to keep in touch but they knew the little thief would most likely not be able to. Everyone was in their own world when someone came in. The 'girl' looked around the age of 20, maybe a little older. She scanned the area and sniffed the air. She could smell her sisters scent on more than one at various levels. Looking around she found the two she needed to speak to. The Blood King and the New Ash.
"Ash, Blood King." Terra bowed as she walked over in front of each then she moved back. "It has been a while since Drake has come to the ash or the blood king for help." Her eyes were scanning the others in the room stopping on Lauren which caused Bo to flash her eyes. "Do not worry succubus I do not wish to feed, yet." Terra's eyes flashed red.
Dyson growled as he noticed the hint of the scent that was in Kenzi's. Jumping up he pinned the newcomer to the wall. Trick looked shocked. Hale rushed over and grabbed Dyson's arm.
"Yo, D, let go of the Vampiress." Hale knew if he didn't the vamp would most likely make him.
"She smells like Kenzi does now!" Dyson snarled his hand closing around Terra's neck.
Terra locked eyes with Dyson and narrowed, he then fell to the ground shaking. Hale stood back with his arms crossed shaking his head. Trick rushed over to Dyson and looked up pleading with Terra.
"Please, he doesn't know who you are." Trick tried to save his friend. "He is just worried about a friend of ours." Terra snarled but brought her eyes away from Dyson, breaking the mental link she connected to serve him pain.
"Who the hell are you!?" Bo snapped as she rose in front of Lauren. "You look like Fae but I can tell from here that you're not."
Trick's eyes went to Lauren, who was staring at Bo with wide eyes. Terra on the other hand smirked and looked down at the blood kind. "Make sure they know who I am." She looked back at Dyson causing him to growl. "And Mackenzi is not what you think." With that Terra walked out the bar and into the back room.
"That bitch is getting on my last nerve." Bo's eyes flashed dangerously as she looked at Trick. "What do you know?" Lauren was trying to calm her but everyone knew that you don't mess with Kenzi or you mess with the succubus.
Trick held his hands up. "I don't know but I will find out." He looked over at Hale. "Why don't we go speak to our guest?" He tilted his head to the backroom.
Hale looked at Dyson and placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'll find out what is going on." He turned and nodded to Trick. "Me and Trick will see to whatever is going on."
Dyson just sat there growling as he watched his two friends walk into the back room and lock the door. Bo tried to follow but there was some kind of magical barrier that kept her from entering. Screaming she slammed her fist again the barrier as the door shut. Lauren was at her side in an instant. Dyson however was trying to keep his calm. He then remembered that Tamsin was at his loft rather early this morning. Turning he found that the Valkyrie was trying her hardest to not look suspicious.
"What do you know?" Dyson stalked towards the Valkyrie. "Did you see Kenzi leaving my loft?"
Tamsin looked from Dyson to Bo and Lauren. "Yes ok I saw the human." She leaned against the pool table and crossed her arms. "But she didn't look like she was in any trouble." She shrugged. "I asked her what she was doing and she told me that she had to drive Dyson home. I didn't ask for details because whatever did happen left her with a glow about her." Tamsin grinned as her eyes turned to Dyson.
Bo, however, was trying to keep cool about the whole thing. "You did WHAT!" She yelled as she walked up to Dyson her eyes were no longer flashing but were bright blue. "Kenzi is suppose to be protected, Dyson! I thought you could handle yourself around her!?"
(Hale's Pov – In the Back Room with Trick & Terra)
No Way! I shook my head as I looked at Terra. No way that Kenzi, OUR KENZI, is Dracula's daughter, aka Drake.
"You have got to be shittin' me." I couldn't believe this shit. I stood and started to walk. "And you knew?" I stopped and looked at Trick. His eyes said it all.
"I had to keep it a secret." Trick tried to reason with me but I couldn't help but be pissed. What will Dyson do?
"No!" I yelled losing my cool which caused the others to come barging in. "You should have told us that Kenzi was involved with Vampires." I snapped.
I heard a growl and knew that Dyson was in the room. "What is going on?" His voice was low and deadly. When I turned I noticed that his eyes were golden. His wolf was out.
"That's what I would like to know." Bo stood there with her eyes blazing blue. I knew that mine were turned but Dyson was the one that really freaked me out. Tamsin on the other hand kept her mouth shut.
Smart girl. I smirked. She knew about Kenzi all along. She is a Valkyrie.
"It seems to me that the others may be needed after all." I turned my attention to Terra, the one who spoke. "Drake will not be happy with the fact the wolf has mated his daughter." Terra smirked as I watched everyone's eyes widen.
"Kenzi's Fae?" Bo said automaticly.
Lauren was the only one who understood. "No, I would have detected something if she was part Fae." She had a look on her face as though she was thinking. "Dyson, you said that Terra smelled a little like Kenzi. What exactly did you smell?" She eyed him.
Dyson frowned as he recalled. His eyes came to mine and I just raised a brow. "She's his daughter because her mother was human." His eyes went to Terra. "Is her mother still alive?"
Terra nodded as she hissed. "The bitch is still alive though no one knows how much longer." She looked at her nails. She reminded me of Tamsin the first time I met her.
"Explain." Trick ordered in his Kingly tone. I would hate to get on his bad side.
Terra clicked her tongue on her teeth. "Kenzi's mother was a druggie." She smirked. "Drake slept with her only to take her blood yet she lived and had a kid." She shrugged looking back at her nails as if they were interesting. "Drake wanted Kenzi to stay around but he didn't get to after she turned 16. She ran and never looked back."
I noticed that Tamsin was watching Dyson with a frown. I wondered if she knew something and wasn't letting onto what she knew. I would have to take her aside after this.
(Dyson's Pov)
Standing there listening to them speak about Kenzi like she was any different didn't make since. If she had the tangy of blood in her scent it could only mean that she was given vampire blood. I knew about drake because I was with the others when we took him out and told him that he could not keep killing the humans. Which was the reason for the hatred between the wolves and vampires. Any kind of canine animal hates vampires.
"Why did Kenzi run?" I snarled as I move closer to the vampire. "Did Drake do something?"
Terra narrowed her eyes. "Down boy," She snapped her front teeth together. "There were only speculations. No one had any evidence. Thus the reason no one ran after Kenzi." I knew that there was something else.
I could smell the scent of lies all over her natural sweet tangy scent. I didn't waste any time as I slammed the cold bitch into the floor. I kept my other hand over her eyes. I knew about these vampires with their special powers. Terra must have been rather new since she didn't call me by my name. They use to call me the Blood Wolf because of the color of my coat after a battle with the vampires. I was one of the best along with my brothers.
May the great Mother keep them warm and with her always. I thought as I turned my attention back to what was in front of me.
"Tell me whut yer hidin'!" I could feel the wolf close to the surface. "I can smell ye lies." I hissed close to her ear.
"Drake knows that Kenzi is close to becoming part of your world and he doesn't want that to happen." Terra choked out from me holding her. "Kenzi has the power of fire and came kill any vampire she comes in contact to. She killed her Uncle Vlad."
"Vlad was a bastard." Trick popped up. "He came in here the night of the couple party and was looking for her but she had already left. I didn't think that Kenzi would run instead of coming to either myself or you, Dyson."
"So Kenzi knew about Fae before she met me?" Bo asked as she finally popped up at my side. She nudged me out of the way and I could tell the succubus was out in full force. "Either you tell me or I get to feed on vampire chi." Bo's eyes flashed as she looked carelessly into her eyes.
"M-My powers don't w-work on you!" Terra gasped as she tried to fight. I knew this bitch was just a show off but nothing but a phoney.
"Of course they wouldn't." Trick answered. "Bo is half Fae half Vampire after all. She just feed differently and doesn't need to feed on blood."
I looked at Bo who just stared into Terra's eyes as she processed what she heard. What everyone heard. Did we hear right? Kenzi and Bo were both half vampire? Does that mean that Bo's mother was Tricks daughter and her father was a vampire? I shook my head trying to come to terms with what I had just heard. This was the weirdest day of my entire life. Suddenly I felt my stomach drop as if I was missing something from this whole thing. I tried to come to think of what I could have been missing.
We need to go home. My wolf told me. You are indeed missing something. Take the vamp. We might need her.
I narrowed my eyes as I saw Bo throw Terra across the room. Terra landed on the couch and that was my cue to move forward and grab Bo. I nodded for Lauren to come over to talk her down. It seemed to be the best thing. I locked eyes with Hale then cut my eyes to Terra. He moved over in front of her and nodded.
"Trick I need you, Bo and Lauren to head back to the warehouse. I need something of Kenzi's before the night of the party." I told them letting go of Bo. They nodded as they ushered Bo out before she killed Terra. I turned and found that Hale was helping Terra up.
"Now we need to head back to my apartment. I have a feeling that I'm missing something." I told both Terra and Hale, turning and heading into the bar. I could only pray that I would find out what I was missing.
Kenzi, just come back to me... I silently prayed and hoped that where ever Kenzi was she could hear that one thought.
(~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~)
Author Note – Here is the next chapter. I also explained a few things. We all knew that Trick's daughter was Bo's mother well we didn't know her father but I placed that in there. However I have a feeling that in the TV series, Bo's father is dark Fae! Any Who, I would like to know what you think? Also check out my other stories of Kenzi and Dyson. I will be going over them a little later but I will be moving shortly so it will be after the move. Til next time keep reading and reviewing...
