Chapter 25

Lauren felt like throwing up again, it was early morning and the house was silent, as usually she woke up first, Ethan and Charlie were sleeping by her side. She and the kids were living at Kenzis and Daniels comfortable but small house, in a rural area. Lauren loved the place and the fact everything was so informal with Kenzi and Daniel. She loved her goddaughter who got the name of Anastasia, Kenzi wanted a Russian name for her daughter, and Lauren was loving the time she was spending with her. Their life was pretty normal and quiet up until a week ago, when Lauren started getting flushed and she was getting nauseous almost every morning.

She tried to ignore it but after the first 3 days Kenzi and Daniel picked up on it, and she was embarrassed. She didn't want to think about it. Not again. She was trying to tell herself she had a cold or a stomach bug. The kids were doing great, growing up very fast and Lauren was so happy to have Ellen around, although she too was all aware of what might have happened, she had time for herself to study the new laws. She made changes but in general she was very happy to see Bo was giving equal power rights to fae and humans and she made strict laws about the fae who would abuse their power over humans.

Bo. They didn't speak until that day Lauren announced to her that she wanted to live with Kenzi. She looked like a lost puppy. She had spend that day with the kids, trying to prove she could be with them without harming them, especially Ethan, and Lauren watched her every struggle and her try to be calm and collected. She could see how much Bo loved the kids but also she could see the possessiveness she felt over them and the will to rule over them. The succubus traits were so strong. Then when it was time to leave, she hugged Lauren desperately and left. Lauren smiled at the thought, again she was never going to stop being surprised at the way Bo the succubus was so bonded with her. Since then they hadn't talked at all, but Lauren could feel her.

She could feel the fact Bo was refusing to feed totally and would only have small sessions to renew her power. She could feel the succubus taking over slowly and her animals thoughts about her. It was like telepathy. Lauren could feel Bos fears and power, she could feel her upset and her dark thoughts, she could feel when she was getting impatient with those around her and she could feel how much she was missing her and the kids. She could also feel her anger at Laurens decision to get the kids and leave. Her selfish animal was taking that as a snub, as a rejection towards her, and that was Laurens main goal.

She wanted to teach her succubus a lesson. She wanted to try and see if she could instill some discipline in that animal. If she could teach her that certain actions have certain consequences. The last time the succubus felt Lauren was denying her, the result was both of them getting out of control and Lauren getting hurt. She didn't want that to happen again. She wanted slowly and steadily to see if she could test the succubus limits and how far she could go. Again her stomach, damn I have to get myself tested. She couldn't deny it anymore, after what she and Bo did those 3 days locked up in their bedroom, she could have easily get pregnant again. She smiled, she loved kids, and she loved to have Bos kids, it was crazy, so crazy and beautiful, and an epic story as Kenzi was keep telling her.

She wont stop bugging me, Lauren thought. Kenzi had managed to stay silent on the issue and only look at her with a daring look, but Lauren was expecting her to start making comments about pregnacies and new babies. She slowly got up from bed and walked inside the small bath. Damn you succubus, you got me pregnant again.

"Are you sure about that mam?"

"This is the second time you ask me, and you must think really hard before asking me again"

Bruce noticed the Princess eyes on a constant blue. The last 3 weeks its been like that. The Princess was stronger than ever and when she arrived back at the compound where the negotiations were taking place, she announced she had one last decision before the final laws would be submitted. She informed the Elders about her decision making it completely clear, that she decided was going to happen whether they liked it or not. Bruce had informed her about the myths and the legends about her and Lauren and how they had become a mythical couple which was much loved but also had many enemies. Also the Elders weren't so willing to agree to a human bearing the heirs to the fae. And now with the Princess latest decision, there was big uproar, it was one thing to give equal rights laws to humans and fae and another to make a human the Queen of fae.

Because that was the Princess decision, and she announced it with a glowing pride among the Elders, that her mate in life was going to be their Queen, while she was going to be the number two, behind her. It was something that caused some of the Elders to yell that the Succubus had gone mad. That the human was holding her in an magical unexplained way. That the human doctor was a witch of that she had used medicine and poisons to make the Succubus obey her every word. But Bo and everybody around her were pretty aware the decision was her own, and that Lauren wasn't even aware of what Bo was planning for her.

"You want anything else mam? Its getting late, do you need anything? Should I call Jane? She can stay with you for awhile"

Bo turned and looked at Bruce, she could imagine how she looked, she was hungry, hungry for sex, hungry for food, hungry for power, and all that ended up in one name, Lauren. She wanted to say yes, Jane was more than willing to be hers, she and Bruce were willing to take part to her semi feeds, and Jane had made it clear she wanted to share Bos bed frequently. Bo smiled, she had managed to feed early from a nice male fae professor who happened to be a fan of Lauren, as he informed Bo he was working with her at the compound for some months before everything happened, and the guy couldn't stop talking about her, Bo could clearly feel the guy, he had that admiration and lust for the doctor, that Bo had in the beginning, when she first met her.

"No, I am ok Bruce thank you" She watched as he walked outside the room, Bo was using Laurens former apartment, as her base in the compound. She felt closer to her.

She picked up the phone and press the numbers.

"Hey succubitch"

"Hey Kenz" Bos voice sounded more intimidating that she wanted to.

"Wow, whats up Bo?"

"Nothing" Bo cleared her voice.

"You cant fool me Bo"

"How are things?"

"Good, we cant wait for the first snow actually"

"Kenz!"

"ok, ok, everything is fine, me, Daniel and Stasa are doing great, oh and hotpants and the succukids too, everything is fine, Bo don't worry"

"How is Lo?"

"Bo? Hello! I just told you she is fine"

"I mean, is she ok? Ehh, I mean her face, she has any bruises left?"

"Didn't you ask me the same thing last night? Like its only a day before Bo, I told you, Lauren is fine, the bruises left, she is feeding your kids, and she is back to ordering us around"

Bo smiled, she could imagine Lauren in her doctor mode, giving orders and directions.

"So no talk about when she is coming back?"

"Bo you asked me yesterday, come on girl, you are the head succubitch, if you want to see her why don't you come over? I am sure we can find a corner for you to sleep in the basement"

"You know I still have the power to get your ass whipped"

"Sureee, your all talk, seriously why don't you call her Bo?"

"Why should i? Not sure if she wants to talk to me, and she left me Kenz"

"She didn't leave you, and if I remember well, you almost killed her"

"Just let me know if anything happens ok? You guys are my family and there are so many who would want to hurt you just to get to me"

"I know that Bo, beside your got so many people all around the village and checking on us, that I am sure you would be the first one to know, if anything happens"

"Ok, well goodnight"

"Talk to you tomorrow Bobo"

Kenzi shut the phone, she smiled, oh Bobo, why you never use protection girl? It was the main thing I reminded you all those years you fucked around, use protection. You got your lady pregnant again, while you are in the shithouse again, while trying to win peace for humans and fae. Kenzi smiled, she couldn't help but think about Bos reaction if Lauren was indeed pregnant as everybody in the house was suspecting. Lauren didn't talk about the issue, but Kenzi couldn't hold on anymore. She was going to ask Lauren for confirmation, no matter what, Bo was still her best friend, and she missed most of Laurens previous pregnancy, and Bo was under huge pressure right now and she needed to know her family loved her, she had to tell her if she was pregnant.

"Finally we can get some peace around here"

Kenzi just noticed Lauren was in the living room, I wonder for how long.

"Hey Lo"

"Hey, you seem in deep thought"

"Yeah, I kinda am"

Lauren didn't ask why, she sat on the couch and checked the channels.

"You wont ask me why?"

"I am sure you are going to tell me"

"Bo called"

"She did?"

"Yes"

"Like yesterday and the day before and the day before"

"She was asking if everything is ok? If anything happened?"

"And? The information she is getting from the dogs she has following our every move, isn't enough for her?"

"You know Bo, she has to hear it for me"

"So did you confirm to her that everything is just fine?"

"Yes"

"Good, so can we change the subject now? I am very tired, and I want to stop thinking for an hour"

"Lo?"

"What Kenzi?"

"Whats happening?"

Lauren raised her eyes to meet with Kenzis. She knew what Kenzi was asking but she didn't want to reveal it yet. She had the confirmation this afternoon, but she didn't want to share it yet. It was soon, so soon, and her relationship with Bo was still troubled, and she was pregnant again, she felt happy and angry, she wanted to share it with Bo, because the first time, they missed that time, they missed the chance to be happy with the news and just live that period as a couple and she wanted to yell at Bo because of the way it happened again. Because she wanted them to settle, be a family and many years after to talk about wanting more kids, but nothing happened like that to them, everything happened in the opposite way.

"Your pregnant" Kenzi said. Hearing Kenzis words, Lauren started sobbing.

"Ohhhh, don't cry Lauren, please, what do you want? You want me to go drag her here? Break her head? I can do that you know, she doesn't expect me to hit her, so I can surprise her..." Lauren started laughing at Kenzis words. Kenzi hugged her.

"You two, you are crazier than I am. I mean, when are you going to calm down? You two? Crazy kids"

"Just don't tell her Kenzi, cause if you do she is going to come here and I am not ready yet ok?"

"Ok, I wont, I don't want her to hear it from me, I don't want her to feel that I knew before she did again but….."

"But what?"

"I know what she did, and I know that maybe you don't want to be with her, that's your decision and I don't want to influence you in any way, but Lauren, she missed being with you the last time, she was jailed…."

"I know that Kenzi, you think I don't remember?"

"Oh ok doc, I just say"

"You say what?"

"Nothing"

"You say I should tell her"

Kenzi said nothing, she decided to leave Lauren alone, it was her decision after all, and she wasn't going to tell Bo.

"Its time I go to sleep, my man and daughter are already sleeping"

Lauren smiled, Kenzi the most rebellious of their gang, had settle and was a family woman. Lauren moved and hugged Kenzi strong.

"Thank you so much Kenzi. For everything, you are so important to me, to us, I never get to tell you but you kept us alive"

"shhhhhhh don't go crying on me again doc and please go get some rest, the succukids are keeping you up all day"

Lauren sat there for a couple of hours, alone. She could feel Bo doing the same. Alone, in a room with no peace of mind, no rest. She got up and slowly walked towards Ellen small room. She opened the door and approached her loyal friend.

"Ellen, Ellen," she whispered.

"Mam? Whats wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong, I just need you to take care of the children for a couple of days, you know I have bottles of my milk in the fridge and their feeding hours"

"Mam, why? Where are you going? No, mam, the Princess is going to kill me if you leave"

"She wont do anything believe me"

"No mam, she is, i cant let you go please"

"Ellen, calm down, and tell me where exactly Bo is stationed, I am sure you know since you report back to her about our every move"

Ellen was stunned. She didn't know what to answer to that.

"I am sorry mam…"

"Its ok, I understand, i understand your loyalty to her besides I would do the same, I would want to be sure my family is safe and cared for. Now tell me"

"She is staying at your place mam"

"My place?"

"Yes, your former apartment at the fae compound"

"Oh, ok"

"Mam are you going to her? Let me call a guard…."

"No, I would go by myself ok? I know that place very well and I am sure I can find my way around the compound, just don't tell her I am going ok?"

"I wont but please, don't lie to me, she really needs you, people around her say she is in a bad shape, don't leave her"

"How can i? Even if I wanted to, how can I disappear with two kids and a soon very obvious pregnancy? And the whole fae army behind me?"

Ellen smiled and hugged Lauren.

"Take care of the kids please, I am going to be back, or we going to be back in a few days ok? Me and Bo, we just need to be alone, sort some things out"

"Ok mam, don't worry, please be careful"

"Dont worry"

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Kenzi got up to find Daniel and their daughter eating breakfast while Ellen had the twins on their small kid bags, playing with their small toys. Lauren wasn't with them, that's strange, she is usually the first one to get up.

Kenzi grabbed her daughter and placed her on her lap while she kissed Daniel and sat on her daughters place.

"Goodmorning, where is hotpants? Having stomach bugs again?" Kenzi smiled and everybody smiled back,.

"Ok whats up?" Kenzi looked at the people around her.

"Omg with these two, I cant, I just cant"!
