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...

Also – Bo's Father is Vampire/Shadow...

!Attention! - Thanks for your support and the prayers. Now here is the next chapter. I hope you have enjoyed how I intertwined everything so far. Also Rainer is NOT Bo's father is this story, Gabe was. Rainer is some one completely different. XD!

Note:

Dyson's thoughts/Kenzi's thoughts

Dyson's wolf thoughts/ Nezi's thoughts.

Previously:

"The Una Mens." Dyson growled as he hugged Kenzi to him as tight as he could. "They want to speak with you, me and the pups." He pulled back and looked in her eyes. "I don't trust 'em Kenzi. Not as long as our pups are in danger."

Kenzi narrowed her eyes as she looked at Bo. "I think these Una Mens are pissing everyone off." She tilted her head to the side. "They also tried to take me to 'their leader' but I kicked the guys ass before I ran away." She growled deeply as her eyes flashed to black. "No one touches my pups and get's away with it!"

Chapter 24: Trouble's Uprising

(Kenzi's Pov – Dark Manor – The Next Day – 8:00 AM)

Dyson was still in bed even at 8 but I didn't have the heart to wake him up. He looked rather worried, if the dark circles under his eyes were any indication. Bo also told me that it wasn't until the Una Mens demanded his presence that he asked Bo and Lauren to take care of them. Although I was shocked to find out I was now part of the Dark Fae world, I couldn't help but feel pissed that I wasn't given a choice. Although there is something that is bugging the shit out of me, why did Bo and I both have a hand print on our right chest/shoulder? Mikael was sleeping but Ali was wide awake as I held her in my arms. She was the rather quiet compared to her brother when he was awake. I swear Mikael craves attention as soon as his eyes pop open and its usually from me or Dyson. Although I lean more towards Dyson. He seems to take after his father more then me.

I could also smell the worry in the air coming from Dyson. He was worried about something but I didn't have a clue. Unless it was because the Una Mens wish to see the children. If that's the case then they can kiss my ass. Placing Mikael back in the bed with his sister, I hurried to get dressed. If Dyson was so worried about meeting them then I would go alone. I don't care if they wanted to see us at the same time or not. Neither of us would step foot into the room together if I had anything to do about it. When I noticed that Dyson was coming around, I pushed as mush sleepiness towards him as I could that way he could be sleeping soundly as I made my way towards the Dal and where the Una Mens were located at this point in time. As soon as I was completely sure that Dyson wouldn't wake, I hurried out the door and found Bo standing outside her door waiting on me.

"What's cha doin', Bobala?" I said in a rather hushed tone.

Bo stood straighter as her eyes met mine. "Don't Bobala me Kenzi." I could see that she knew what I was up to. "I am going with you since for some reason they wished to see me along with you and Dyson. Speaking of Dyson..."

"He's sleeping." I told her as I grabbed her arm, rushing down the door. "And its going to stay that way."

"You know he's going to be pissed when he wakes up to find you gone." Bo told me as we left the manor and headed towards the Dal in one of the many cars the Morrigan had lying around.

Lucky Bitch...

"How are you and Lauren doing?" I asked breaking the silence in the car.

Bo smiled as she drove towards the Dal. "We're doing good." I noticed her eyes got hazy. "I'm really sorry that I forgot you. When everyone forgot about you there were only three people that knew you were alive."

"Don't worry about it BoBo." I smirked hitting her arm playfully. "What I do know is that I am going to go ape shit on the Una Mens for having something attack my pups and myself. That was completely uncalled for." I growled my eyes flashing.

They will pay for hurting my pups. Nezi vowed as she paced in her mental cage. No one hurts our pups and gets away with it. NO ONE!

Calm down girly. I ordered her as I noticed we were pulling into the Dal's parking lot. We'll show them they shouldn't mess with a vampiress and her family.

I waited til Bo shut off the engine as I threw the door open and got out. Trick was standing outside with a short dude in a monk robe. I could see the fear in his eyes as he looked at me. I didn't understand why he was so scared but it had to end. Where were the loving people that I considered family? These Una Mens needed to hit the road and never return. I stopped and waited for Bo as she locked the doors. Trick stiffened when he noticed that it was only Bo and I. His eyes met mine and I could see that he was really worried for me. I raised a brow to see if he had anything to add before we met the Una Mens but he kept his mouth shut. If that was the case then so be it. Since these people came to town, my whole world has been flipped upside down and that was about to stop.

"You will enter one at a time." The monk dude spoke quietly.

I could hear Bo about to say something. "I don't think so buddy." I hissed pushing him to the side. "I don't care who they think they are, no one -and I mean NO ONE- is going to order me around. Let's go BoBo."

I pushed pass Trick since he didn't say anything in our defense. I heard Bo trailing behind me snickering because she hadn't see this side of me. Nezi was proving to be a big help with fueling my anger with her own. It seemed when I was pissed or frightened enough, I could control my fire ability. Although I don't remember where I got the information from, I was glad for it. Bo and I entered a darkened room with what looked like cages. I flashed my eyes red to allow myself to see. There were monks scattered through our the room while a female with two males were standing in the center with a trunk like thing in front of them.

"We said we would speak to each of you in private." The female spoke as the lights grew brighter. "Isabo may wait outside." She turned her eyes to Bo.

"I don't think so lady." Bo told her as she planted herself beside me, her arms folded and eyes flashing from brown to blue. "If Kenzi's staying and so am I."

The female frowned as she tilted her head. "So be it." She turned her attention back to me. "Remind your friend to stay quiet as we speak with you."

"You tell 'er." I smirked seeing that the monks in the room stiffened. "Bo's her own person just as I am."

This time the female did grin. "You may be your own persons but your heart has picked your sides." She pulled out a couple of scrolls. "Our gargoyles have tested your blood and came to the conclusion that you are both Dark. Ali, your daughter is light yet your son Mikael is dark. In four days you have to hand Ali over to her father since she will be staying at the Light Manor with her father. You shall be staying in the Dark manor with Bo, Mikael, Zombie and Lucia. The intermingling of light and dark are forbidden."

"Fuck you." I hissed my fist clenching at my side. "I don't give a shit what you say, I'll do what I fuckin' please. If I wish to stay with my mate then so be it. No one is going to tell me what do do."

"The same goes for me." Bo spoke up as she stepped up beside me. "If you think we are going to stay away from our family because of the fact the differences in Light or Dark then you have another thing coming. Neither Kenzi or I go by your rules. Her retrieving Dyson's love back from the Norns was proof enough."

"That was an unfortunate incident." The female said slowly as she placed the scrolls back, before straightening. "Yet since you will not follow the rules placed by the Una Mens, you will stay here until your mates show. We well then figure out what to do with both of you."

In a flash I was taken by the arms and legs by cuffs. I growled as I tried to let my powers out but for some reason they were locked inside of me. The fuckers had figured out my powers since the bitch was grinning like a mad woman. Bo was also trying to use her succubus powers but with the cuffs on, neither of our powers were working. I snarled and snapped at each of the monks who had me but they stayed out of reach. Smart fuckers. Nezi was throwing a bitch fit because she hated being chained up. Our father did enough of that since I was never good enough, or should I say evil enough, for him. I could hear Bo giving them just as hard of time as I was. I wouldn't give them a moments peace as I thrashed and sent panic through my mating bond with Dyson. I knew he would figure out where I went and come crashing through the doors. I would love to see the look on the bitches face when he came charging into the room demanding her let me go.

If he didn't, him and I would have to have a long 'talk'.

(3rd Person Pov – Dark Manor, Dyson & Kenzi's Room – 11:00 AM)

Dyson was sleeping soundly after his mate left yet when he was hit with a wave of panic through their mating bond, he instantly knew what Kenzi had done early that morning when he went to get up with her. Snarling, he ripped the covers away and hurried to dress. The pups weren't in their bed yet he could hear Zombie, Lucia and Lauren with them. Following their scents into Bo and Lauren's room, Dyson stood there for a moment before clearing his throat.

"What's going on?" Zombie was on his feet in a flash.

"Kenzi took off to the Una Mens without me." Dyson snarled as his hands clenched at his side. "Where's Bo?"

Lauren shook her head as she bounced Ali. "Bo went out early this morning, too." She frowned looking at Dyson. "You don't think she went with Kenzi to keep her out of trouble, do you?"

"Bo was requested." Lucia spoke up as she had Mikael in her arms. "Zombie and I were the ones that brought the message. Trick said we needed to get it to her as soon as we saw her."

Dyson growled deeply in his throat. For some reason his oldest friend was hiding something and it was time it came out in the open. Shaking his head to calm his wolf, Dyson spun on his heels and stormed out of the room, down the hall and into the Morrigan's office. Thankfully there wasn't anyone in the room other then herself. She raised a brow at Dyson as she tilted her head to the side with a sly smirk on her face.

"Is something the matter Dyson?" She asked innocently blinking her eyes a couple extra times.

"I need to use one of your cars." His eyes kept flashing from red to his normal storm blue.

The Morrigan could see that the wolf shifter was close to losing all control thus nodded as she tossed him the keys to her personal car. Dyson didn't say anything as he nodded once then left. He marched down the hall towards the parking lot when he found Lauren standing by the entrance. Dyson knew what she wanted but there was no way he could allow her to go in there being human.

"I know what you're going to ask," Dyson said as he passed her opening the car door and getting in. "and the answer is no."

Lauren narrowed her eyes as she ran around, pulled the passenger door open before he could relocked the doors and hopped in, shutting it behind her as she looked at him with a fierceness in her eyes he had never seen before. He noticed that her jacket had something lining the front pockets.

"I don't care what you say Dyson." Lauren said in her sternest voice she had. "If Bo is in trouble then I will go with you to help. Bo is mine and I will not let her die if I can help it. If Kenzi could do it then so can I."

Dyson sighed as he shook his head. "But Kenzi isn't fully human Lauren," He turned his stormy blue eyes to hers. "You are."

"You are not changing my mind Mr. Wolfe." Lauren pulled one of Kenzi's many nicknames out of her memory to call Dyson to make him think again. "Kenzi is also my friend and even if she isn't fully Fae or Vampire, she is still one of us. Not to mention I have my own weapons." She smirked pulling her jacket open slightly, revealing a little arsenal of syringes filled with only god knew.

Dyson chuckled, shaking his head as he put the keys in the ignition and turned the engine over. As soon as the car was in gear, his foot hit the gas pedal and they were off like a rocket. He was glad that his reflexes were still pretty good as did Lauren. It didn't take them long to get to the Dal and parked next to one of the Morrigan's other cars. Dyson knew that Kenzi either boosted the keys or hot wired it. If Bo didn't succubus the keys from the keeper. Shaking his head, he hurried after Lauren because she had already made her way to the door of the Dal. His heart dropped when he spotted Trick and a monk at the front door stopping Lauren from entering. Dyson prayed it was only because of the fact she was human.

I'm coming Kenzi. Dyson thought as he walked up to Trick. "I need to see Kenzi, Trick." Dyson's eyes were hard as if daring Trick to tell him no.
