Apologies for the heavy dialogue from the show at the beginning, it's just important to make it clear those scenes have happened here.
This chapter is a long one.
INT - THE ASH'S COMPOUND - MORNING
Bo and Lauren approached the doors of The Ash's compound, the air heavy with tension as Lauren attempted to prepare Bo to meet with The Ash.
"Thank you for arranging this," Bo said gratefully. "I know he's not a fan."
"Just try to be respectful and brief," Lauren advised, her voice tinged with concern. "And don't mention I'm helping you with your treatments. That's just between us."
Bo, unable to resist a touch of sarcasm, retorted, "Should I also curtsy?"
Lauren sighed.
"Would you relax?" Bo reassured Lauren, attempting to lighten the mood.
As the colossal doors swung open, Lauren positioned herself by the entrance, her stance reflecting a mix of caution and worry. Meanwhile, Bo confidently strided forward, reaching the base of the staircase that led to The Ash, who looms at the top, an imposing figure casting a commanding presence over the room.
"You've been rethinking your allegiance, perhaps," The Ash stated, his tone revealing a mixture of curiosity and scepticism.
"It has come to my attention that a Fae is about to be executed for a crime she didn't commit," Bo boldly declared, determined to make her case.
"I know of whom you speak. It's a matter for the Dark Fae," The Ash dismissed the issue, his voice tinged with disinterest.
"The ones that betrayed her," Bo retorted, her frustration palpable.
"She is not of my clan nor under my protection. To interfere would be madness. Lesser things have started wars," The Ash asserted, his words carrying a sense of calculated caution.
"You would let her rot in jail for something she didn't do because you're scared to start trouble?" Bo challenged, her voice laced with a mix of anger and disappointment. "It would be easy to fix this. You have power in the human-"
"Perhaps you should have thought of that before declining to join us," The Ash interrupted, his voice carrying a hint of condescension. "Child, you mean well, but you toy with elements you don't understand."
"So do you," Bo replies, frustrated. "Thanks for the advice. I'll let myself out," she declared, her words dripping with a sense of defiance.
"My, still so charming," The Ash remarked.
"Go." The Ash demanded Lauren to follow after her.
"What were you thinking?" Lauren asked, her voice a mix of worry and frustration.
"What was I thinking? You're the human," Bo retorted, a tinge of anger colouring her words. "How can you work for that jackhole? He's as bad as the Dark Fae."
"The fact you're saying that proves you have no idea what you're dealing with," Lauren cautioned, her tone tinged with a mix of exasperation and concern.
Lauren reached out and grabbed Bo's arm, causing her to stop walking. Bo turned to face her.
"This is dangerous. I have no influence with the Dark. I can't help if you get in trouble," Lauren explained.
"I am not asking you to," Bo replied, her voice filled with determination.
Lauren desperately attempted to convey her concerns to Bo with her eyes. Bo held her gaze, her frustration easing slightly as she recognised the care in Lauren's eyes.
Seeing the slight change in Bo's demeanour, Lauren attempted to reach out for her, but Bo took a few steps away.
Bo still didn't understand why Lauren would want to work for someone who is fine with letting an innocent woman be executed.
"I appreciate you trying to help me Lauren, but you can tell your boss he's not the only connection I have," Bo said, turning to leave.
"Bo," Lauren called after her. "Please come by my lab later, I need to run some tests to see how the new treatment is affecting you."
Lauren sighed, walking back into the compound, she had been worried this would happen.
"Our little Succubus is very persistent," The Ash stated, his voice carrying a mix of annoyance and intrigue. "I know you've been helping her without my permission."
"I-I-Um," Lauren's heart raced as she tried to gather her thoughts, her mind racing to find the right words.
"You've been getting close to her for the good of the Light Fae, yes?" The Ash probed, his tone indicating a desire for confirmation.
"Yes, of course I have," Lauren responded, hoping to sound convincing.
"Good. And now we can use that relationship," he declared, a glimmer of strategy in his eyes.
Lauren sighed. The last thing she wanted was for someone to take advantage of their relationship.
"The man Bo seeks is called Vex," The Ash revealed, his voice low and deliberate. "A favourite of the Dark Fae. If Bo kills Vex, the Dark will kill Bo. I'm not ready for that until I know more."
Lauren was at least relieved to hear The Ash didn't want Bo dead, "Good. How can I help?" she offered. If she was the one in the know, she could try and help Bo.
"I'll negotiate with the Morrigan to have Vex sent away," The Ash voiced confidently. "You keep Bo on a leash until he's gone," he instructed.
Lauren's brow furrows with concern. "How? I've tried to reason with her," she admitted, her frustration evident.
The Ash leaned forward slightly, his gaze fixed upon Lauren. "She's a Succubus," he stated matter-of-factly, a touch of amusement in his voice. "I'm sure you can think of some way to distract her." The corners of his mouth hinted at a knowing smile, leaving Lauren to ponder the possibilities and implications of the task at hand.
INT - LAUREN'S LAB - AFTERNOON
"Hey," Bo greeted Lauren as she entered her lab, her heart pounded with a mix of anticipation and unease as she took a seat on the examination table.
Lauren returned the greeting, her reassuring smile radiating warmth and care. "I was worried I wouldn't see you," she confessed, her eyes expressing a deep sense of concern.
"I'm sorry about earlier. I felt so let down, I was counting on The Ash for help," Bo admitted, her voice tinged with vulnerability.
Lauren moved gracefully, retrieving a stethoscope from her desk. As she draped the chest piece over her shoulders, she walked over to Bo and positioned herself between her legs, her proximity offering a sense of comfort and reassurance.
With a sympathetic smile, Lauren acknowledged Bo's emotions. "It's okay, Bo. I understand how upset you were," she reassured, her voice filled with genuine empathy.
Securing the earpieces of the stethoscope in her ears, Lauren leaned forward. "Take a few deep breaths for me," she requested, placing the cold metal disc against Bo's chest. Her focus shifted solely to the rhythm of Bo's heartbeat, listening intently as it echoed through the instrument.
Amidst the tension, Bo's gaze wandered to the delicate necklace adorning Lauren's neck. Her fingers instinctively reached for the chain, drawn to its allure nestled between her cleavage. "I like your necklace," Bo murmured, her voice carrying a mixture of admiration and desire.
Lauren's smile brightened. "Thank you," she responded.
As the examination continued, Lauren meticulously checked Bo's eyes, searching for any signs of abnormality or dilation.
"Do you ever miss working on normal people?" she inquired playfully.
Lauren chuckled. "No offence to my own kind, but humans can be a little pedestrian now."
"Once you go Fae, you never go back," Bo retorted, a playful glint dancing in her gaze.
Lauren's eyes sparkled, unable to stop her smile. "Mhmm."
"Speaking of humans, have you been involved with any since we changed the formula?" Lauren inquired.
A mischievous smirk spread across Bo's face as she replied, "No humans since you, Dr Lewis."
Lauren chuckled. "Devil's advocate, a Succubus requires a healthy sex life to maintain stability. And, of course, when injured, you still need to have sex to heal," she explained, her tone striking a balance between professionalism and understanding.
"Yeah, well, I had that covered with Dyson. I trust him, and he's Fae so I didn't worry about draining him," Bo replied.
"And now?" Lauren asked, wanting to know the current situation.
Bo couldn't help but feel an awkwardness.
Noticing her unease, Lauren quickly reassured her. "Bo, it's alright. I fully understand your needs, and I'm not asking for personal reasons."
"Honestly, I've fed a couple of times on Fae since you changed the formula. It's more of a 'take what I can get' situation," Bo answered truthfully.
"Dyson?" Lauren inquired, already anticipating the response.
Bo nodded.
"Okay, well I would be more comfortable with you choosing someone slightly less well-traveled but it's your choice."
Bo reached out for Lauren's hand, feeling her hint of jealousy. The last thing she wanted to do was hurt Lauren's feelings.
"Bo, it's alright," Lauren reassured her.
However, Lauren wasn't entirely sure if she truly felt alright. Since her intimate encounter with Bo, they had only met once for the new treatment, and it had been a brief visit due to Bo's case, Lauren's busy schedule and The Ash's constant demands. After their previous conversation, Lauren had assumed that Bo and Dyson's relationship was no longer sexual, but she understood the complexities involved. If Bo needed to heal, she needed to heal.
"Did you have any luck with your case?" Lauren inquired as she wrapped up her tests feeling satisfied that Bo was responding well to the new treatment.
"Not yet. I plan to visit another one of my Dark Fae contacts later, so hopefully, I'll gather more information then," Bo responded.
Lauren's earlier conversation with The Ash replayed in her mind. She knew he wanted her to keep Bo distracted, but her primary concern was Bo's safety. If Vex was the Fae Bo was searching for, Lauren knew he posed a significant threat, and she didn't want Bo in harm's way. Bo's stubborn nature often led her to act without considering the consequences.
"That's a shame," Lauren said, leaning against her desk opposite Bo. "I was hoping we could spend some time together tonight."
Bo raised an eyebrow, torn between her desire for intimate moments with Lauren and her desperate need for answers.
"I really need to meet up with Mayer, but I'd love to see you afterwards," Bo suggested.
"Bo, I'm worried you'll end up getting hurt. The Ash mentioned something that could be relevant to me earlier, and I'm looking into it. If I promise to keep searching, can you please stop? Just for tonight, Bo. Please?" Lauren asked
"What did he mention?" Bo inquired.
"Bo, please," she pleaded.
After a moment's contemplation, Bo hopped off the table and walked over to Lauren. She positioned herself between Lauren's legs and wrapped her arms around her shoulders.
"Lauren, I truly appreciate everything you're doing to help me. It means the world to me," Bo expressed sincerely.
Feeling Lauren's arms encircling her waist, Bo cherished the closeness they shared.
"Does that mean you'll let me be your distraction tonight, then?" Lauren flirted.
"Only if you forgive me for being such an idiot earlier," Bo requested as she leaned in closer to Lauren, trailing kisses along her neck.
Lauren's breath hitched, her body tingling with anticipation as Bo's lips danced across her skin.
Her hands instinctively found their way under Lauren's shirt, tracing delicate patterns along her back, sending shivers down her spine.
"Well? Do you forgive me? Or am I going to have to make it up to you?" Bo whispered sensually, her warm breath caressing Lauren's earlobe, causing her to gasp.
"Bo somebody could walk in," Lauren moaned gently.
"I need to hear you say you forgive me Lauren," Bo muttered between kisses.
"I do, Bo, I do," Lauren moaned gently.
Bo's lips trailed upward, leaving a trail of fiery sensations on Lauren's neck. She sucked gently, eliciting a throaty moan from Lauren, her body arching with pleasure.
"You do what, Dr. Lewis?" Bo purred, her tongue teasingly tracing circles on the sensitive skin, making Lauren's head spin.
"I forgive you, Bo. I forgive you," Lauren managed to pant out, her nails lightly grazing Bo's skin as her fingers tangled in her hair.
Bo pulled back slightly, locking eyes with Lauren, their gazes filled with raw desire. "That's a shame. I was hoping to make it up to you."
Without hesitation, Lauren closed the remaining gap between them, capturing Bo's lips in hers.
INT - THE CLUBHOUSE - EVENING
"Bo, Bo, we're going out tonight! I want to get my drink on," Kenzi exclaimed as Bo walked through the front door.
"Ugh, Kenz, not tonight. I've had the longest day, and Lauren's on her way over," Bo replied, tossing her jacket over the back of the couch. She made her way to the kitchen, longing for a moment of relaxation, and poured herself a glass of wine.
Kenzi huffed with disappointment, her shoulders slumping. "You're seriously ditching me for the doc?"
Bo couldn't help but laugh. "Kenzie, I'm not ditching you because we never made plans."
Collapsing onto the sofa, Kenzi pouted, her frustration evident. "Dyson came by earlier looking for you."
"Wine?" Bo offered, gesturing towards the bottle on the counter.
Kenzi grumbled a half-hearted refusal.
Taking a seat beside Kenzi, Bo put her feet up on the coffee table. "What did he want?"
"I don't know. He just said he wanted to talk to you," Kenzi replied, a hint of uncertainty in her voice.
Sipping her wine, Bo let out a sigh. "What's on your mind, Kenz?"
Kenzi's gaze met Bo's, her expression a mix of concern and curiosity. "What's going on with you and Blondie?"
A brief pause hung in the air as Bo considered her response. "I don't know. We're getting close."
Kenzi leaned back, her eyebrows raised in disbelief. "Well, yeah, I know that. I practically felt like I was in a threesome with you both the other day. I mean, one minute you're saying you can't sleep with her, then she's supposed to be helping you with your succubusness, and now she's coming over for date night?"
"What's the issue, Kenz? I like Lauren," Bo asked confused.
Kenzi's voice lowered, her concern seeping through. "Dyson doesn't trust her."
Bo's frustration surfaced, her tone tinged with irritation. "So, you're giving me a hard time about Lauren because Dyson told you he doesn't trust her? And why doesn't he trust her?"
Kenzi held up her hands defensively. "Hey, look, don't kill the messenger. I'm just trying to look out for you."
Bo's voice softened, tinged with genuine emotion. "I really like her, Kenzie. And I trust her. She genuinely cares about me and has been helping me a lot with my hunger-"
"Oh yeah, I've seen," Kenzie interrupted in annoyance.
"What's your problem, Kenz?" Bo snapped.
Kenzi sprang up from the sofa, snatching her jacket from the kitchen counter. "I'm heading to the Dal. Have fun with Dr. Doom," she retorted brattily before storming out, slamming the door behind her.
"Great, just great. So much for a relaxing evening," Bo muttered to herself, her voice tinged with confusion and frustration as she sat alone in the room, bewildered by her best friend's sudden outburst.
As she savoured a sip of her wine, Bo's thoughts swirled, contemplating whether or not to call Dyson. The audacity of him feeding Kenzi doubts about Lauren's trustworthiness infuriated her, but she decided against it, she wasn't in the mood for further confrontation.
Lauren had become a source of solace and happiness for Bo, a bright spot in her life. Their time together had been scarce lately, making Bo's confusion deepen as to why Kenzi had given her such a hard time about seeing Lauren tonight. It irked her that her best friend's interference had dampened her mood. All Bo had wanted was to come home, unwind, and enjoy a blissful evening with Lauren.
Bo suddenly became acutely aware of her empty stomach, having barely eaten all day, the leftover pizza called to her. Just as she was about to indulge, a knock at the door interrupted her plans. Setting down her glass, she moved swiftly to answer it.
"Hey," Lauren greeted with a radiant smile as Bo swung the door open.
An immediate sense of relief washed over Bo, all the tension that had burdened Bo melted away as she laid eyes on Lauren. Without hesitation, she pulled her in for a kiss, desperate to feel her close.
"Mmm, I missed you," Bo mumbled between breathless kisses, her voice filled with longing.
Lauren smiled into the kiss, savouring the sensations that Bo evoked within her.
"You taste so good," Lauren murmured.
They broke apart, their eyes gleaming with shared affection.
"I could definitely get used to that," Lauren confessed, gently closing the door behind her.
"If only I could always have you by my side, kisses whenever I need them. Maybe I could just keep you in my pocket?" Bo playfully remarked.
Lauren chuckled, captivated by the charm of the woman standing before her.
"Wine?" Bo offered, a glimmer in her eyes.
"Please," Lauren replied.
"So, I'm thinking," Bo began as she carefully poured a glass of wine for Lauren. "I run us a hot, steamy bath, followed by a nice, long massage, before we continue what we started at the lab," she suggested alluringly, passing the wine to Lauren.
Lauren's face lit up with delight. "That sounds like absolute perfection," she responded.
"I thought you might think so," Bo said, a satisfied smile playing on her lips. Taking Lauren's hand in hers, she gently pulled her upstairs, the excitement growing between them.
"Thank you for convincing me to unwind tonight," Bo expressed, squeezing the bottle of bubble bath, watching as the water began to foam.
"No, thank you. I know how stubborn you can be, so I truly appreciate you allowing me to shoulder your stress, even if just for a little while," Lauren replied, perching herself on the edge of the bed, her voice filled with genuine affection.
Bo placed a few candles throughout the bathroom, creating an ambience of warmth and intimacy.
Leaving the water running, Bo joined Lauren in the bedroom, her gaze fixed upon her lover. "You're amazing, and so incredibly sexy," Bo remarked, a playful twinkle in her eyes.
Lauren blushed, her heart fluttering in response to Bo's words. In Bo's presence, she felt a mix of nerves and comfort, a unique combination that made their connection all the more special. Bo leaned against the doorframe, taking a sip of her wine, her gaze unwavering on Lauren.
"Why are you standing all the way over there?" Lauren inquired, a knowing look in her eye.
Bo traced her finger along the rim of her glass, her eyes locked with Lauren's, an air of restraint lingering between them. "Because I don't entirely trust myself," she confessed.
"Trust yourself to...?" Lauren prompted.
"To keep my hands to myself," Bo admitted, her eyes lingering.
"Bo, we're about to share a bath together. I think it's inevitable that there will be some touching involved," Lauren teased, her playful nature shining through.
Bo let out a soft chuckle. "Well, I'll be patient and wait then, because adding a flooded bathroom to my list of problems is something I'd rather avoid."
Lauren laughed, a melodious sound that warmed Bo's heart. "I see your point."
Curiosity getting the better of her, Lauren asked, "Did something happen before I arrived? You seemed a bit, off."
Bo raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by Lauren's perceptiveness. "Had a fight with Kenzi," she revealed, the tension from the argument still lingering in her mind.
"Do you want to talk about it? It seems we have a few minutes," Lauren offered, her tone light and open.
Bo appreciated Lauren's willingness to communicate without pressure, finding it refreshing. "There's not much to say, really. I came home, and she got upset because she wanted to go out, but I had plans with you."
"Mhm," Lauren acknowledged, taking a sip of her wine, her eyes never leaving Bo's face.
"And after a long day, I just didn't have the patience for it, you know?" Bo explained, the weariness evident in her voice.
"Understandable. Is that all?" Lauren inquired, her curiosity gentle yet persistent.
"Pretty much," Bo replied, casting a glance towards the bath and discovering that the bubbles had risen above the bathtub's edge. A delighted grin spread across her face. "It's ready!" she exclaimed.
Lauren smiled in response, her anticipation evident. Swiftly, she retrieved her bag and extracted her phone and charger, plugging them in next to the bed.
"Are you coming?" Bo's voice rang out from the bathroom, her playful tone laced with sexiness.
Lauren entered the bathroom, greeted by the sight of Bo already settled in the tub, bubbles engulfing her up to her shoulders. A contented grin played on Bo's face as she uttered, "The water feels amazing."
"Close your eyes," Lauren instructed, her fingers moving to unbutton her shirt.
Bo's eyes twinkled with mischief as she retorted, "Definitely not. I want to see every inch of you."
A playful smirk tugged at Lauren's lips. "I didn't see you, so you don't get to see me," she countered.
Bo's eyebrow raised, her hands lifting to settle on the sides of the tub. "I've prepared this beautiful bath for us, and I think it's only fair that you-"
Bo's sentence trailed off as she watched Lauren continue to unbutton her shirt, each deliberate movement captivating Bo's gaze. With each undone button, Bo's heart quickened its pace, her anticipation growing. The unveiling of Lauren's skin, bit by bit, ignited a rush of desire within Bo. As the final button yielded, Lauren gracefully slipped her shirt from her shoulders, allowing it to fall gracefully to the floor. Bo's mouth watered at the sight of Lauren standing before her, her breasts encased perfectly in white, her arms exquisitely toned. Not wasting a moment, Lauren proceeded to unbutton her pants, sensually sliding them down her legs and stepping out of them.
Bo couldn't tear her eyes away, completely captivated by Lauren's irresistible allure. Every inch of her was exquisitely perfect. Bo's hunger for her intensified as Lauren reached around to unhook her bra. Bo practically found herself panting with anticipation. As the bra gracefully cascaded to the floor, Bo couldn't help but whisper, "Wow." A breathtakingly sexy smile spread across Lauren's lips, igniting a surge of desire within Bo. Lauren's fingers then hooked into her underwear, causing Bo's breath to hitch involuntarily.
"Please," Bo whispered, her voice filled with yearning. "Please, let me."
Lauren's fingers paused momentarily, taken aback by Bo's request but more than willing to comply. She approached the edge of the tub, noticing the intense, almost black gaze in Bo's eyes and the glistening allure of her lips. Bo's hands reached out eagerly, causing a shiver to run down Lauren's spine. Bo's arm slipped around Lauren's lower back, drawing her closer. Rising slightly from the water, Bo's lips pressed a passionate kiss just above the line of Lauren's underwear. Lauren's hand found its way into Bo's hair, establishing a steady grip for support.
As Bo gently pulled down Lauren's underwear, she left a trail of tender kisses along each newly exposed patch of skin. Lauren's breath grew heavy with anticipation as she watched Bo kiss her way along her naked body. When the final piece of clothing gracefully slipped off and joined the others on the floor, Lauren took a step back, just out of reach. Looking up at Lauren with a mixture of awe and desire, Bo's chest beat with anticipation.
Lauren moved to the opposite side of the tub, Bo remained completely transfixed, her eyes never leaving Lauren's figure as she slowly immersed herself in the water, the bubbles quickly concealing her body as her legs nestled perfectly alongside Bo's.
"Lauren, you are an absolute goddess," Bo declared, her voice filled with admiration.
A rosy blush graced Lauren's cheeks, the compliment sending a wave of warmth through her. "No, Bo, that's all you," she replied, her voice filled with genuine appreciation.
Bo's hand found one of Lauren's feet beneath the water, her fingers expertly massaging and caressing.
"Mmm," Lauren moaned in delight, tilting her head back to rest against the rim of the tub.
They enjoyed a moment of silence together, the room was adorned with soft candlelight, casting a warm glow over their surroundings and the air was infused with the enchanting aroma of sweet cherries.
"This world, it's still so new to me," Bo spoke softly, her voice carrying a gentle warmth, her eyes savouring the sight of Lauren's relaxed expression.
"Growing up, being different, I never felt like I would escape that feeling, of being alone. Crazy that I ended up here, in this old, weird, could-fall-down-at-any-minute building that feels more like home than anything else ever has."
Lauren's smile radiated with affection as she lifted her head to meet Bo's gaze.
"I consider myself incredibly lucky. Meeting Kenzi, Dyson. You. Even Hale," Bo continued, her words filled with a touch of wonder. "Each of you is like a missing puzzle piece that fits into the empty spaces I've carried for as long as I can remember."
Lauren's eyes glistened, deeply moved by Bo's vulnerability.
"I never, ever anticipated finding someone like you. Someone who makes me feel safe, wanted, and truly heard," Bo confessed, her voice tinged with a mixture of awe and gratitude. "Someone who makes me feel deserving of love, desired in a way I never thought possible."
As Bo spoke, her fingers sought out Lauren's other foot, continuing the soothing massage. "You are incredibly special, Lauren," Bo expressed, her voice brimming with sincerity. "Don't tell Kenzi, but you are my favourite person I've ever met."
Lauren chuckled, her eyes shimmering with tears, her heart swelling with affection.
"I care about you deeply, Bo," Lauren responded, her own hands submerged in the water as she reached out to find Bo.
Gripping Bo's legs, she gently pulled herself forward, drawing Bo closer. Together, they glided through the sea of bubbles until their bodies entwined in the centre of the tub. Embracing one another, Lauren's fingers tenderly ran through Bo's hair, their touches imbued with love and tenderness.
They eventually eased their hold on each other, just enough to meet each other's gaze, basking in the profound connection they shared.
"This case, it feels like it's personal to you," Lauren broke the silence, her voice gentle and caring. Her fingers continued their soothing motion, gliding up and down Bo's back, her eyes filled with warmth and understanding.
Bo offered a soft smile, once again amazed by Lauren's ability to perceive her emotions.
"Yes, it is," Bo admitted, her hand lifting to brush a finger across Lauren's lips. "Lou Ann, the woman on trial. One of my Dark Fae contacts mentioned she might have some information about my birth mother."
Lauren tilted her head, surprised by Bo's revelation.
"When Kenzi and I visited her, I asked if she knew anything. She denied it, but there was a flicker in her eyes when I mentioned being raised by humans. I sensed she knows something, Lauren."
Lauren contemplated the situation, her tender caresses never ceasing.
"When I went back to see Siegfried, the contact who had information about Lou Ann, he had been murdered. Controlled. I believe it was the same person who manipulated Lou Ann into killing her own children."
Understanding flickered in Lauren's eyes as she nodded.
"So, if you find the person responsible for framing her, you might uncover the truth about your birth mother."
Bo nodded, peppering gentle kisses along Lauren's shoulder as she continued speaking.
"Unfortunately, you've stumbled into a web of Fae politics. It's a complicated situation. I don't believe there is much that you can do for Lou Ann. The wheels have been set in motion for a long time Bo," Lauren's tone was soft, an apologetic look in her eyes.
"Your search for your birth mother, I had no idea you were looking," Lauren confessed.
Bo nodded, feeling vulnerable. Lauren tenderly kissed her cheek.
"Let me help you," Lauren murmured. "I have access to resources and contacts of my own."
Bo's eyes brightened, deeply touched by Lauren's willingness to assist.
"But please, Bo, promise me you'll stay away from Lou Ann and the complicated Fae politics. I know it's unfair, I've had to come to terms with it myself. But trust me, I know this world."
Bo nodded, realising she lacked the necessary understanding of the Fae to delve into such a complex situation. It pained her to accept that she couldn't save Lou Ann, that an innocent woman would lose her life. Her heart weighed heavy with the burden.
"I promise, Lauren."
Lauren kissed Bo's lips, her touch gentle as she caressed Bo's face.
"Now, how about you allow yourself to relax for the evening? We can resume the search for your mother together tomorrow. For now, let me ease your worries with a massage. Will you allow me that?"
Bo responded with a gentle hum, enjoying the sensation of Lauren's lips for a moment longer before rising from the tub. As the soapy water unveiled Bo's naked form, Lauren's breath caught in her throat. She watched as Bo stepped out of the tub, wrapping herself in her favourite red kimono, a striking sight that left Lauren captivated.
"You coming?" Bo called out, a sexy smile playing on her lips.
"I'll join you in a moment," Lauren answered, lifting herself out of the foamy water as Bo made her way toward the bed.
She reached for one of Bo's kimonos, wrapping it snugly around her body. Draining the tub before carefully extinguishing the candles, a touch of caution ever present in her actions.
With the body oil in hand, Lauren made her way into the bedroom, her eyes admiring the sight of Bo's naked form. The kimono draped over Bo's lower half, Lauren's gaze traced the curves of Bo's back.
Bo's eyes locked onto Lauren, relishing in the intensity of her gaze. As Lauren gracefully moved around the bed, she knelt on top, straddling Bo and settling into a comfortable position.
A pleasurable moan escaped Bo's lips as she felt the weight of Lauren's body pressing against her own. She fought the urge to rush, reminding herself to enjoy the moment, to revel in the sensuality they were about to share. Bo tended to rush through this part, sex being the focus, but now, she craved the slow, deliberate exploration, cherishing the journey with Lauren.
Lauren let the oil drip onto Bo's back, emitting a small gasp from her mouth as the oil made contact with her warm body. Lauren started to work the oil into her shoulders, her hands strong but soft against Bo's skin. Bo moaned gently as Lauren's hands expertly massaged away her tension.
"Feel good?" Lauren whispered.
Bo's response came in a breathless affirmation, her voice laced with satisfaction. "It feels amazing."
A gentle smile played on Lauren's lips as she gradually moved her hands from Bo's neck down to her shoulders, kneading the muscles with skilful precision. She leaned closer, her breath caressing Bo's ear as she whispered, "Your body is so addictive."
Bo hummed with delight, lost in the sensation of Lauren's touch. The rhythm of the massage intensified as Lauren's thumbs pressed firmly into the crevices of Bo's shoulder blades, eliciting a louder moan of pleasure.
As Lauren leaned down to place a tender kiss on the back of Bo's neck, Bo felt the coldness of Lauren's necklace against her back.
"Your necklace," Bo muttered. "What does it mean?"
Lauren paused for a brief moment, surprised by the inquiry, before resuming her massage.
"It's The Ash's emblem," Lauren replied, her voice tinged with a hint of something Bo couldn't quite decipher "It signifies my affiliation with the Light Fae and grants me unrestricted access to their territories."Hmm. So it tells people that you work for The Ash?" Bo replied.
"Exactly," Lauren spoke softly.
Bo turned over beneath Lauren, sensing the slight change in her tone. She gazed up at her with intense eyes, mentally adding the sight of Lauren's body straddling hers to the list of sexiest things she'd ever seen.
Lauren's gaze started to wander, admiring the alluring curves of Bo's breasts, the enticing contours of her waist, and her beautifully toned stomach.
With the shift in position, the kimono had slipped off Bo's body, causing Lauren's bare skin to connect with Bo's.
Bo's hands began to explore Lauren's body, gliding along her sides with an eager touch. She tugged at the tie securing the kimono, with a gentle persistence, Bo unravelled the kimono, revealing the sight of Lauren's naked body. Her fingertips traced a path between her breasts and down her stomach, relishing in the shiver that ran through Lauren's body in response. Lauren adjusted herself, pressing herself down into Bo, allowing her to feel her arousal.
A moan escaped Bo's lips, she couldn't hold back any longer. With a sense of urgency, she reached up, her hands finding their way into Lauren's hair, pulling her down to meet her in a passionate collision of their lips.
The intensity of their desire fuelled the kiss, full of longing and hunger. Their lips moved with a delicate balance of softness and urgency, their breaths mingling between heated exchanges. Each kiss deepened the connection between them, building a craving that seemed insatiable.
As their bodies pressed together, the friction between them intensified. Lauren responded by grinding her body against Bo's, their combined pleasure echoing through the room. The sensation caused Bo to moan into the kiss, her desire spiking with every movement.
Driven by a desperate need to feel the entirety of Lauren's bare skin against her own, Bo swiftly discarded the kimono, exposing the captivating canvas before her. With an unquenchable hunger, she ran her hands along every inch of Lauren's now exposed body, savouring the electric touch that sent shivers down both their spines.
Lauren hungrily kissed down her neck, with each kiss Lauren planted, Bo's desire intensified. Their bodies moved in a sensuous rhythm, responding to the current passing between them. Bo's intoxicating moans reverberated through the room, fuelling Lauren's hunger.
Eager to explore every inch of Bo's exquisite form, Lauren skillfully glided her lips down her body. She paid devoted attention to Bo's breasts, savouring the taste of her delicate skin. Her tongue traced teasing circles around Bo's nipples, a gentle bite drawing forth another ecstatic moan from deep within Bo's throat.
Continuing her descent, Lauren pressed kisses along Bo's quivering stomach, her body arching in anticipation. With deliberate intention, Lauren positioned herself between Bo's spread legs, taking in the view before her.
A soft whisper escaped Lauren's lips, tinged with longing and desire. "Finally," she breathed, revelling in the intimacy that lay before her. Without delay, she immersed herself in Bo's essence, her tongue gliding through the slick folds, eliciting a cry of pleasure from Bo's lips.
Lauren's mouth enveloped Bo's sensitive bud, her tongue flicking and teasing with expert precision. Her hands slid beneath Bo's supple curves, gripping her firmly, drawing her closer. Lauren's tongue continued to flutter against her, a continuous symphony of pleasure.
Bo's voice crescendoed, an ecstatic scream escaping her as waves of pleasure coursed through her body. Lauren's devotion was relentless, her lips and tongue a conduit of ecstasy, driving Bo to the brink of sweet release. Lost in the depths of their intimacy, Bo's body writhed beneath Lauren's touch.
Every sensation consumed her, her mind completely consumed by the intoxicating presence of Lauren. In this moment of undeniable connection, Bo was completely hers.
"Lauren," Bo's voice quivered with urgency, her moans cascading into the air. "Lauren, I'm... I'm..." Her words dissolved into incoherent gasps as the relentless waves of pleasure crashed over her, sending her spiralling into the depths of an intense orgasm.
Bo's body trembled in ecstatic release, her senses consumed by the rapture that coursed through her veins. Lauren, undeterred by Bo's climax, continued exploring between her legs. Her tongue danced skilfully, riding the ebb and flow of Bo's pleasure.
Bo's desperate grip tightened around Lauren's head, pulling her in closer, desperate for more connection. Lauren was addicted to the taste and scent of Bo, intoxicated by her essence. Her lips and tongue explored every delicate contour, relishing the wetness that coated her lips and chin, her desire insatiable as she allowed her to ride out her orgasm.
Bo let out a gentle giggle, her voice still quivering with the remnants of her orgasm, her body feeling utterly and completely satisfied. Lauren planted a final kiss between her legs, eliciting a shiver of pleasure, before gracefully ascending back up Bo's body.
Unable to resist, Bo pulled Lauren's lips to hers, slipping her tongue between them, desperate to taste herself on her lover's tongue. As they broke apart, both of them panting, radiant smiles graced their faces.
"Dr Lewis," Bo purred, her voice filled with satisfaction, "You are something else."
Lauren kissed her again, their lips melding together in a tender embrace.
"I can't help but notice that we've had sex twice now, and you haven't taken my chi," Lauren remarked.
Bo reciprocated the kiss with equal intensity, her desire evident in her eyes.
"Mmm, I'm kinda nervous to try the whole 'meal deal.' I still don't feel completely confident that I could maintain control."
"Bo, the restraint you've shown by not taking it is a testament to the control you possess," Lauren reassured her.
"Hmmm, maybe..," Bo whispered seductively, her tone laced with anticipation, "But right now, I'm hungry for something else."
With that, she swiftly flipped them over, her intentions clear as she embarked on a journey down Lauren's body, eager to reciprocate.
