Chapter 14 When you bring a Gun to a Knife fight
The warm spring sun tickled the girls faces spreading a nice warmth over their bodies. Happy laughing of the playing children echoed over the playground.
Lauren smiled when Bo pulled her closer peppering kisses along her neck earning looks full of disdain from the mothers on the other benches.
"I just... I can't get enough of you" Bo whispered nibbling at Laurens ear while her hand slowly slipped a little under the blondes shirt. Ever they had kissed for the first time something inside of Bo had awaken. A desire, a hunger to be near Lauren, to feel her, touch her. She craved for more and it was difficult to keep control.
"Bo.. we... we can't" The blonde breathed and caught the wrist that was dangerously close to her bra by now. Their hearts were beating rapidly and Lauren blushed deeply. Bo looked disappointed when she slowly pulled out her hand from the shirt.
Lauren saw that look and felt a little bad for the brunette. She kissed Bo's knuckles lovingly and got up. "Wait a sec, kay?" She said and made her way to the undercover cop sitting on the bench. He looked surprised to be discovered and shushed Lauren. But the blonde insisted. Smiled. The cop shook his head. Lauren tried again and pointed at Bo. A knowing smile spread on the cops face. He grinned, said something and winked when Lauren came back.
Lauren pulled Bo up entwining their hands. "Let's look for a place more quiet..." Lauren winked. In the back of her head she heard Dysons voice, telling her to be careful to never leave their guards. He talked about dangers and threats she doubted were actually lurking around the next corner. Her father was in prison, a dungeon Rena said. There was no way he could escape that or could he?
Her mind was clouded by her hormones when she dragged Bo further along in the park. They eventually hid behind a group of trees. Bo didn't hesitate and pressed Lauren against one of the trees attacking her lips with feverish kisses.
Lauren wasn't against Bo's ministrations but her sudden increase of... libido was a little frightening. Like something had opened up in Bo.
The brunettes hands immediately found their way back under the blondes shirt, touching feeling, caressing the flesh. Wherever Bo touched a tingling warmth was spreading in Laurens body. Her knees felt like goo her vision got a little blurry. An unknown arousal was streaming through her. How did things escalate that quickly?
A deep moan escaped Laurens lips when Bo's eager hand cupped a bra clad breast kneading the soft mound with determination while Lauren just held Bo tight. Arms resting on the small of Bo's back unsure what to do. Fingers were tugging at her bra trying to free her breast and a first wave of panic was building up. Pictures of her father were flashing in front of her eyes. His hands on her breast, his breath at her ear. She tried to shake it of and it worked but only for a short time.
Bo was really forward, very demanding. She was going a little to fast and Lauren already felt out of her comfort zone. Two fronts were fighting in her. One wanted to surrender to the incredibly wonderful touches but the other panicked. Wasn't ready, was afraid. Memories were pushing.
She had to admit that it felt so good but Bo's behavior was a little frightening and strange. It was different from the way she used to know her.
"Bo..." Lauren breathed half moaning. "Slow... slow down" But the brunette didn't seem to hear her and kept going. Her left hand circling the already hard nipple with fascination. She was in another world while she nipped and sucked on the blondes neck.
"Bo..." Lauren tried again. Her voice wavered when she tried to gently push the girl away to no avail. Bo was mesmerized. Lauren started to panic. Way to fresh images were flashing through her brain. She had no control... She never wanted to be in such a situation again.
Bo pressed her tighter against the tree trunk. Hands reaching down popping open the button of Laurens pants and slowly pulling down the zipper. Tears were forming in Laurens eyes. "Please not again..." She pushed again but the brunette seemed unusually strong. Collecting all her strength she pushed again. Bo fell to the floor landing with a loud thud on her butt staring at her confused.
Lauren could swear she saw a flicker of blue in the brunettes eyes. No that can't be. I must be hallucinating
"Lauren? Fuck..." Bo swore getting on her feet. She looked at the tear stained cheek of the blonde, the disheveled clothes the open pants. A knot was tightening in her stomach. What had she done? "God I'm so sorry Lauren. Please.. I just got carried away... I don't know I... please look at me" Tears were forming in Bo's eyes. She hated herself in this moment. She tried to pull up Laurens chin to look at her but she flinched and escaped her touch.
"Don't... Don't touch me..." Lauren was hugging herself looking completely lost.
"Lauren..." Bo knew she had fucked up. What the hell was going through her?
"My my what do we have here?" A male voice snarled. Bo immediately turned around placing herself protective in front of the still traumatized Lauren.
"Who are you?" She barked.
"The youth doesn't have manners anymore... "
"Tell me!" Bo held her arms wide keeping the stranger from Lauren. She would never let anybody hurt the blonde. Something inside her screamed to protect the woman no matter what. She took a look at the bold man standing in front of her. His skin was dark swallowing every light hitting him. His white dress shirt was a contrast to the black leather west and black slacks. A cocky smile plastered on his face he was slowly closing in.
"Who I am is not important. My only concern is to escort your partner. The Morrigan likes to have a... chat with her."
Morrigan? Lauren swallowed. The man must be Fae. What does the leader of the dark Fae want from her? She was just a plain human. The man looked dangerous. She saw his muscles flexing ready to take a move if needed. A small dagger was strapped to his thigh and Lauren regretted that she had ignored Dysons warnings. She only hoped Bo wouldn't be hit in the crossfire.
"Morrigan? Dude what are you talking about? I won't let her go with a nut job like you" Bo growled.
The man laughed. "Oh and you really think you have a word in this? Pathetic." He was now standing directly in front of her staring her down. Bo didn't back down but looked him directly in the eyes. "I really don't want to hurt you girls... Yet... Just come with me"
"Hell no" Bo yelled. Her eyes glowing in a dangerous blue neither she or Lauren saw. The man arched his eyebrows. "How... cute" He grinned and without a warning punched the brunette directly in her stomach making her hunch over. Before Lauren even reached Bo the man kicked her and Bo fell to the ground. The sickening sound of broken bones rang through the bushes. The brunette moaned in agony, breath rattling because of the ribs puncturing her lungs. Blood trickled out of her mouth when she lied motionless on the floor.
"Bo!" Lauren screamed terrified. Please don't let her be dead. Anger was flaring up in her, adrenalin pumping through her veins when she picked up a stick and stormed at their attacker. Her swings were sloppy full of blind anger and were easily dodged.
Her lungs burned and her breath was heavy from the constant swinging. He seemed amused at her trying to attack him. "Well.. enough fooling around. The Morrigan wants you alive but she didn't say in what kind of state"
The first blow came so fast that she didn't even realized the pain until she felt blood trickling down her temple. Her vision was blurry when hit after hit connected with her body. His strength was inhuman just confirming Laurens suspicion that he was Fae. She tried to dodge, to block but he was too fast. One hit took the wind out of her. She fell to her knees. He didn't waste time pulling up her arm in an angel that wasn't natural. White hot pain was pulsing through her body when shoulder made a loud plop sound. She screamed in agony.
He bound her hands together moving her dislocated shoulder further. Lauren felt sick and was almost throwing up.
"She said you'd be a tough one.. But I hate to hear you scream so SHUT UP!" He yelled and slapped her hard. The coppery taste of blood was forming in her mouth. Another scream of pain escaped her lips.
His smile was nasty when he looked at her squirming. Lauren looked at the lifeless form of Bo. She hoped she was still alive.
"Oh don't worry. Your girlfriend is still alive... at least at the moment" he chuckled. "It's such a waste for a pretty thing like you to be a dyke. Don't you agree?" She felt his breath on her face. She wouldn't give in so easily and spat him in his face. Saliva and blood mingled on his face and Lauren grinned.
"You little bitch" he screamed and kicked her. She felt her ribs crack under the pressure and it became hard to breath.
Enraged he pulled her up. Hand enclosing around her throat he was suffocating her. What he didn't know that touching her skin would work against him. He felt some of his power leaving his body. Laurens eyes were glowing a bright gold. She felt some of her strength returning. It was becoming easier to breath. The feeling of her shoulder popping back in place was unnerving.
What was happening to her?
The second her attacker realized what was happening he let go and drew his knife. He panted heavily. The blonde must have taken a lot from him.
Maybe she was partly healed but she was still bound. She didn't want to run, not wanting to leave Bo lying there. But the second she hesitated to move was a second to long when she felt something sharp entering her lower abdomen.
Fuck.. why did they all have to stab her? Pictures of her father were playing in her mind. She just wanted to curl in to a ball and cry, but she couldn't. She had to be strong. Strong for Ivy, for Bo and herself.
Unfortunately she had no idea how to get out of this situation. She wasn't as strong or skilled as her attacker. She was injured and her mind was wrecked.
Bo was stirring on the ground. Lauren was grateful that she was still alive.
When she'd get out of this alive she needed answers because of her being a plain human was something Lauren doubted. But finding out about her healing abilities, she wasn't actually believing she had those, wasn't a priority now.
"Come on... tough guy.. hit...hit me.. Choke me..." she panted.
"Oh no I won't be touching you again. I'm not stupid... And now that I know your secret.. I guess I don't have to hold back anymore..." He grinned playing with his dagger.
"Oh I don't think so" A female voice sounded from behind the trees. The man turned around but before he could spot the talker a shot rang through the park. A bullet drilling in his skull. His dead eyes turning in to his head when his lifeless body slumped to the floor.
"Always have silver bullets with you. You never know when you'd need them..." The female whispered holstering her weapon.
