Sweet Savage Congo

Mission: Bo travels back in time to meet up with Dr. Lewis in the Congo rainforest with the intention of trapping a hungry Garuda and stopping a Fae War…

Chapter 9

Bo came to her senses gradually…the sound of Lauren's frantic voice finally bringing her around. Opening her eyes she was comforted to see Lauren's lovely face hovering above her own.

"What happened?" Bo groaned grabbing her head and attempting to rise. "Oh…wow! What a rush!" Bo grinned giddy with the power buzz.

Stopping Bo with a hand to her arm, Lauren spoke with authority. "Be still…let me check you."

Lauren pulled a small flashlight from her pocket and flashed the light into Bo's eyes. "Your eyes are dilating normally and the blue tint has faded," she spoke softly…her gaze thoughtful. "Other than the head rush; how do you feel? Do you not remember anything?"

Bo shook her head and noticed the ogre mere feet away, obviously very dead. Bo spied the box near Lauren. "I really hope the Garuda is in there, because I really don't feel like chasing a phantom fire demon right now."

Lauren smiled somewhat relieved by Bo's attempt at humor. "Yes, he's in there so you can rest easy. I suppose we can head back to camp."

Once again the doctor manipulated the aircraft's controls for the smoothest ride ever. Lauren spoke into her headset, "GPS is a wonderful thing when you have to fly at night…just punch in the coordinates and you're wherever you want to be!"

Hiding a silly grin…Bo thought she'd like to program her own GPS to a location inside the doctor's pants.

Attempting to refocus her mind to a calmer subject she asked casually, "So, where did you learn to fight like that?"

Lauren answered modestly, "Ahhh, I had a few self defense classes in college. My sensei taught me well. She probably saved me from rape or worst because believe it or not, I had a stalker back then."

Bo wasn't surprised the beautiful doctor had dealt with some obsessive types in her past.

Lauren continued making light of the serious incident. "He didn't understand the words not interested, so I pretty much had to show him."

Bo grunted. "Sometimes actions speak louder than words."

Bo presented another question. "So, how did you know to use the box?"

Lauren grinned. "Well I can't really pat myself too much on the back there. Luckily, you informed me that you had a tool to trap the Garuda. The box was the only item in your pack so…it was kind of obvious. I'm just happy there wasn't a hidden mechanism or magic word to open it. The end result might have been very different otherwise."

Lauren redirected the conversation curiosity overcoming her. "So, do you have these blackouts often?"

Bo cautiously replied remembering the Lich incident. "I've had one other occurrence. I don't recall it either."

"Bo, you said some strange things and your power surrounded you like a protective field. The Garuda didn't have a chance. Psychologically speaking… this could be an alternate personality exerting itself. I've read a little about this condition in the human world…but not the fae."

"Like a split personality?" Bo seemed frightened but intrigued by the possibility.

Lauren continued thoughtfully, "Yes…but this personality knew how to utilize power that might be hidden to you in your present state. I felt the power emanate from you. You may have untapped potential that you're not aware of and stressful situations release the part of you that is repressed. It's just a thought."

"What else did I say?" Curious, Bo prodded the doctor for more information.

Lauren blushed and seemed a little reluctant to answer, but finally gave in to Bo's gentle insistence. "You seemed angry that the ogre had manhandled your consort."

Bo hid a smile. No surprise there she thought. Looks like she and her split personality had something in common…an all consuming desire for the same sexy doctor.

Bo looked out at the beautiful Congo landscape immersed in moonlight and felt a momentary pang as she realized the future she was heading back to would be different. She had already decided to forgo Trick's warning and have a conversation with the Morrigan and the Ash before leaving this time.

She couldn't leave without the reassurance that Lauren would be protected. If she had to, she would hold Nadia's blood thrall over Evony and blackmail her into backing away from Lauren.

As for the Ash…she would use her familial ties to intimidate him if necessary. She was after all…the Blood King's granddaughter.

Looking back at Lauren's delicate profile…her stubborn chin and cute slightly upturned nose…Bo felt her emotions rise to the surface.

The full moon shone through the glass of the helicopter illuminating the interior with a ghostly glow. Bo thought Lauren looked like a fairy princess as the moon bathed her in silver light.

She wanted this woman so badly!

Her body seemed to be in a constant state of arousal when Lauren was around. It was a small wonder she was able to accomplish her mission and if it hadn't been for Lauren…she knew without a doubt she would have failed.

As a succubus she had tasted so many people…so many different flavors. Sometimes it was hard to distinguish between them.

Some people were bland…some spicy…some sweet…some incredibly bitter, but Lauren was unique.

She was like red wine and dark chocolate savored together. Her flavor was complicated…not easily discernible, but damn if you didn't want to indulge until inebriated.

Studying the doctor intently, Bo smirked when she realized Lauren's sexual aura rated about a 10.

Elated, Bo was content that she wasn't the only one… love drunk at the moment.
