Bo

Bo had an uneasy feeling as she was stuck at a red light. She turned her eyes blue, as if they were going to change it to green. Sighing, the lights did change. She dodged in and out of traffic. She slammed on her breaks, as she parked. Pulling her keys from the ignition, she rushed into the house.

She didn't need to look around or call out to Lauren, because she heard her. Loud and clear. "What the hell is going on here!? She screamed walking into the living room.

"Kenzi's under this fantastic impression that I owe her something for, per her words, taking you away! Lauren said making quotation gestures with her fingers.

"Is that true Kenzi?! Bo screamed.

"Bo I..". Kenzi spoke.

"Is that true?! Bo screamed. She pulled her jacket off, and threw it down on the couch.

"Well it is a little true". Kenzi shrugged.

Bo sighed, and closed her eyes for a second. "Lauren, go take your shower. I'll handle this.'' She said softly.

"No Bo. I will handle this. Since she came to see me". Lauren snapped.

Bo raised her hands, and gestured for her to do so.

"I don't owe you anything. I didn't take anything from you that wasn't given to me. You're just hurt because Bo is with me and not Dyson. None of that is my doing. But Bo is mine. All of her. If she wants nothing to do with you, take my compact mirror and see why. You're a taker Kenzi, just like what you were doing when she found you in that bar. As far as your physical wounds go, there's a hospital not too far from here. I'm off the clock, and my clinic is closed". Lauren spat and then excused herself to shower.

"What the hell was that? She can just talk to me any kind of way now? Kenzi spat.

"First of all, you came here without calling. Secondly, you invaded my home and our time together. Lauren is my mate Kenzi. I love her. I don't care if you accept it, or not. I don't know why you're really here, but looking at you, I can only imagine that you're hungry. Fine. Take this but never darken our doorstep again. Especially with this bullshit.'' Bo said throwing money at Kenzi.

Kenzi scoffed. "So this is us now?

"Kenzi! You came to my home trying to start shit with my wife. You have no room to judge here! Bo screamed.

"She's not your wife! Kenzi spat.

"She's never going to leave me. So yes. I'd say that makes her my wife. She was probably right saying you favored Dyson. The same Dyson that was going to attack Nadia. No. Get out of my house, and stay out. Use the hospital down the street if you need to." Bo said walking away. It was getting later, and later.

"Evony threatened me Bo!? Kenzi screamed across the room.

"I'll deal with her! Bo screamed. This is why she wanted dinner with Lauren alone. To give the doctor some sense of normalcy after work. The Fae never gave her that. Here was Kenzi, a human, trying to interfere with that too. Once Bo was sure she had left, she checked on dinner. Curtis told her it would be a little while longer, so she showered in one of the spare bathrooms.

Aife and Sasha

"I know it's late, and I'm sorry." Sasha said softly. It was nearly midnight when she finally finished her search, and contacted Aife.

"It's fine, Sasha. Let's see what you have." Aife said waving off her apologies. Some she would demand apologies from, or she'd simply kill them. Sasha's one of her best people. She knows not to bring Aife trash or misinformation.

The Succubus looked at the pictures. Sasha had obviously found a few. He was nice looking but if this really is her grandfather, she needed to stay focused on that.

"What about the DNA? Aife asked.

"Right here." Sasha said handing Aife a plastic bag with a hairbrush inside.

"We have people looking for him right? Aife asked.

"Yes ma'am, we do." Sasha nodded.

"Good. Then I will take this to Dr. Lewis in the morning. Keep looking for him, I want him found by then." Aife said placing everything Sasha gave her into a bag.

"Yes ma'am." Sasha said as she left the Succubus.

Bo and Lauren

Bo frowned when Lauren had tossed in the bed. "What's wrong?

"I don't know. Kenzi I guess. People thinking just because I'm a doctor that I'm weak, or a pushover." Lauren said as she rolled back over to look at Bo.

"Forget her Lauren. Forget all of them. Those days of everyone treating you like that are over. There's nothing you need to do. Nowhere you need to be, except for work later today. That's if you still want to go in. It's pretty late." Bo said staring at the clock. It was almost four in the morning.

"I do." Lauren smiled softly. She moved into Bo's arms. The Succubus was so warm, and soft.

"Get some sleep." Bo said kissing the top of the blonde's head. The Succubus laid still. She didn't want her movements to keep Lauren up any further. Freaking Fae treated this woman terribly. She seethed thinking about how the Ash probably popped in on her whenever he wanted. The bastard deserved to be dead. She smiled when a light snore came from Lauren. Finally closing her eyes, she waited for sleep.

Later that morning

Bo opened her eyes, and noticed she was alone in bed. She heard the shower and stretched her arms out. Normally she'd want to shower with her, but didn't want Lauren to be late. Curtis was obviously downstairs, and Bo was ready for real food. She hadn't fed her Succubus in awhile, but felt like she really didn't need to.

"Good morning Bo! Lauren smiled as she blotted her hair with a towel.

"Good morning Lauren! Bo stood and hugged the doctor. "Mmmm you smell good".

"Thank you". Lauren said quietly.

Reluctantly pulling back, Bo went to shower while Lauren finished dressing. The doctor smiled at the bed. Bo had been on Lauren's side because it wasn't as messy when she went to shower. She made the bed, and looked out the window. It is going to be another beautiful day. Her phone ringing pulled her out of her thoughts.

"Good morning Dr. Lewis. I know it's early but I have someone and something for you to run tests on." Aife said softly.

"Okay. Why don't we meet at eleven? That way I can see where my staff is, and how many patients we have waiting to be seen by then." Lauren said making a note in a small notebook.

"Excellent. We'll see you then". Aife smiled as they hung up their phones.

"Lauren? Who was that? Bo frowned after emerging from her shower.

"Aife. She's coming by the lab today. She has some tests she needs me to run". Lauren answered as she put her phone away.

"Okay. Just tell me If she ever gets too pushy. We should set a no calls or internet before breakfast rule". Bo said as she grabbed her own phone.

"Okay. But emergencies are an exception. '' Lauren smiled.

"Then it's done. No calls, texts, or internet before breakfast, unless it's an emergency". Bo nodded.

"Thank you." Lauren smiled grabbing Bo from behind.

"For what babe? Bo asked.

"For thinking of me. I know you're trying to keep my pre shift and after hours drama free." Lauren said squeezing the Succubus.

"You don't need to thank me for that Lauren. People need to respect our privacy. Like last night with Kenzi. Just showing up thinking she could pick an obvious fight with you. Like you or I can't think for ourselves. Make our own choices. You are my choice, she needs to accept that, or not." Bo said turning into the doctor's arms.

"Let's go eat. So I can get to work, and make sure that I'm ready for Aife. At least she called ahead." Lauren said pulling Bo along.

"I meant to ask you about that, but I'll go see her and make sure that she understands that she's not to try and use your clinic as her personal lab." Bo said as they walked downstairs.

"I don't mind really. You know I love science". Lauren replied.

"Well I love you, and I do mind. I know the Light and Dark Fae labs have been shut down, but you don't have to compensate for that". Bo said as they rounded the corner.

"I love you too." Lauren said squeezing the brunette's hand.

"Good morning Curtis! Sorry we're a tad late this morning! Bo smiled.

"No problem ma'am. Breakfast is served." Curtis said as he bowed at the table.

Bo helped Lauren sit, and took her own seat. The spread was nice but light. Bo smiled at how much Lauren was eating. This was part of the normal life she longed for all of her life. She never thought she would find Lauren, but she did. She slept with so many people before but never thought of any of them as the type to settle down with. To mate with. In all honesty she thought it could be Dyson. But her Succubus didn't click with him, like she does with Lauren. Imagine only half of you being in love with someone. That other half would be miserable. But not now. Not Bo. Lauren's other half loves science. So Bo was never going to deny her a chance to mate with her second love.

Once breakfast was over, they said their goodbyes and parted ways. Bo made a beeline for Aife. She wasn't going to be nasty with her mother. She just wants to remind her of Lauren's priorities and how they are going to respect that.

She pulled up to one of Aife's properties and went inside. She nearly lost her shit when she found the Succubus talking to a man.

"Hello Isabeau. There's someone I want you to meet! Aife smiled.

"Who's this guy? A new thrall? Bo asked looking at the man.

"We think he's your grandfather, Keldon". Aife smiled.

"My what? Trick's dead . Bo said. She was a little annoyed that the Succubus was going to waste Lauren's time with this. Then she remembered their talk about him the previous night.

"We think he's my great grandfather. Sasha found him late last night and I've been questioning him. I used my pulse on him. He told me that he married the first Aife a long time ago, then fled when she died." Aife explained.

Bo walked around the man. He didn't look the part and quite young. She never asked her own mother how old she actually is, but then again the Fae's ages were mostly always in the hundreds, or thousands. Her Succubus wasn't getting a reading on him either. "We have a couple of hours. So that gives me time to ask my own questions."

Keldon nodded and took a seat, Aife had offered him.

Hale and Dyson.

The Siren was going a bit crazy. Dyson was still acting like a rookie and a little boy. He had to take over their cases because Dyson was busy flirting with every woman suspect in the precinct. He almost wanted to ask his Captain to give him another partner, but if Dyson got a Fae partner, that could be a disaster too.

To be completely honest Dyson was never that good of a cop. He was just physically stronger than human cops. Yes Bo had given Hale his biggest case yet, deciding on what to do about Dyson. With the sides taken away, he could try to pawn him off on Evony, but she'd kill Dyson within the first hour. There was just nothing to do with the guy.

"Where's the human? Evony snapped.

"Evony. Not here. You know the rules.'' Hale whispered.

"I don't give a rats ass about the Succubus rules. That little human of yours has disappeared. She had an arrangement with me and broke it". Evony snapped again.

"I'm assuming you're talking about Kenzi. I don't know where she is. But even if I did, you can't kill her or Bo would kill you". Hale said ushering her away from Dyson.

"Fine I'll leave the little shit be. Tell me how the Succubus can drain people with one breath, or I'll tell the wolf all about us." Evony threatened.

"You can't do that, and I don't know how Bo does that. But if you want to know that badly, ask Bo yourself". Hale replied.

"Very nice! Who was she? Dyson smiled watching Evony walking away from Hale.

"No. Dyson. Get back to work! Hale said slamming some police files down in front of his partner.

Evony seethed as she left. Kenzi had dodged her. Of course she could ask Bo, but it's the principle of the whole thing. The former Morrigan had threatened someone and they apparently lived to see another day. Once the Morrigan, always the Morrigan, so she needs to know her foes. Bo wouldn't be a foe had she chosen the Dark in the first place and the Fae wouldn't be like it is now. But she didn't, so it is.

Lauren's Clinic

Bo had asked Keldon every question that she could think of. Aife confirmed that she had asked the same questions. They pulled up to Lauren's lab and Bo kept them outside for a minute.

"This is Lauren's clinic. Whatever she asks, you will grant her request. We could pulse you all day and you would likely give the same answers. This is just for scientific proof and nothing else. Do not make this a habit of calling on anyone in this clinic, especially Dr. Lewis". Bo said and then pushed the panel that opens the doors.

Bo, Aife, Sasha, Keldon and two of Aife's thralls all filed into the lobby.

"We're here to see Dr. Lewis." Bo smiled.

"Of course. She's expecting you. Please follow me.'' A nurse smiled.

The group walked down a long hall with Bo leading her group behind the woman. They rounded a corner and she opened a large door. Walking in they immediately saw Lauren with her back to them.

Bo smiled as she walked over and whispered something in the doctor's ear. Lauren looked at her, removed her gloves, and turned around. She froze at the group standing before her.

"Dr. Lewis, this is….." Bo started.

"Keldon! Lauren smiled as she walked over to the man.

"You...you know him Lauren? Bo asked.

"I was just about to ask that too! Aife said with her eyes widening.

"He's an old patient of mine." Lauren smiled again. He looked so much better than the last time she treated him. So the doctor in her was thrilled.

"You can tell them what I am, Dr. Lewis. It might help them understand." Keldon smiled softly.

"He's an Incubus I treated." Lauren replied.

"Wait. The Incubus you mentioned when you gave me that one injection to help with my hunger? Bo asked.

"That's the one". Lauren said finally releasing Keldon's hand.

"Okay. Everyone out that's not the five of us". Bo said pointing to herself, Lauren, Aife, Sasha, and Keldon.

Aife dismissed the ogres and nodded for Bo to continue.

"Take what you need to run your tests Lauren. While we're waiting for the results, Keldon can explain this." Bo said and watched Lauren draw blood from Aife and Keldon. She already had Bo's blood on file. Bo handed Lauren the brush, and the doctor started her tests.

"The blood should be faster." Lauren said.

Bo nodded and never took her eyes off of the man. Sasha was standing on his left, Aife was standing on his right.

"Okay. Lauren's back, talk.'' Bo said taking a seat next to the doctor.

"I didn't want to be King after my wife died. So there was nothing keeping me here, so I left. I stayed to myself until I heard about a Succubus that had surfaced in the colony. Having recently fought someone, I needed medical attention. To check around I went to the Light Fae compound. Lauren graciously treated me, but after sensing that she wasn't one to spill Fae secrets, I left. I thought this Succubus was Aife, but everything that I was learning on the streets told me that Aife had vanished into thin air. Nobody in my particular circle had seen her. So I went looking for her. I didn't know she was back until Sasha found me last night. I didn't know about Bo until today. It's hard keeping a low profile. The Fae can be treacherous and would likely want me dead to keep from taking my throne back. But as I said, I don't want it without Queen Aife by my side. She was was beautiful by the way". Keldon explained.

"I don't know. You sound almost as bad as Trick". Bo said shaking her head.

"I'm nothing like that coward. I wasn't hiding from my throne. I just didn't and don't want it". Keldon said defensively.

"Isabeau is in control of the Fae. Although we did uncover grandmother's crown, robes and other jewels". Aife explained.

"That's wonderful! Keldon smiled.

"Okay. But why did you choose Lauren though? Bo asked less defensively.

"I can tell when someone's seen a succubus. When I spotted her, I told a Harpy that I wanted the doctor ordering her around to treat me. The look in the eyes of someone that has seen a Succubus, lasts a while. It's the same aura that she has right now looking at you. She has this pull about her too. Anyway I could also sense how sad she was there. I didn't want to put her in danger, so I left the compound". Albert replied as he looked back and forth between all of them.

Bo was really curious now. This man had found Lauren without really looking for her. He found her mate before she even knew what a mate was. He'd sensed that she'd seen Bo and Bo wasn't in the building at the time, but showed up later to ask for an injection. The same injection this man sitting before her got. Lauren took calls and questions when her phone rang, but other than that, they talked to Keldon for the rest of the afternoon until Lauren learned that his results were in. The tests that would tell Bo for sure if Lauren met another one of her grandfather's before she did.

"It's alright. Just tell us Lauren." Bo said softly.

Lauren looked at an anxious Bo and Aife. "It's a match. He's your grandfather, and your great-grandfather! She smiled.

Aife and Bo rushed into his arms. He was taller than the both of them. Dark haired and built. Lauren stood next to Sasha crying. Bo has more family, and so does she.
