Chapter 1: Distance Makes The Heart Grow Fonder
Yale University (Lauren & Ciara's House)
The last year had been a whirlwind for Bo and Lauren. Now that they had put the horrible end of their senior year behind them. Although it wasn't all bad. They had an amazing Prom night, forgoing what happened the next morning. But now that Bo's grandfather was gone for good, they were finally getting back to their normal lives.
Or at least what was normal for them. The young couple had come a long way since they had graduated from Mandrake High.
Bo had graduated with the grades that she wanted, they weren't as good as Lauren's but they were just what she wanted. And it was all thanks to her amazing girlfriend. In the weeks before their final exams, Lauren had been quizzing Bo non-stop. Making sure that she knew everything that she needed to know and that she would be prepared for whatever the tests threw at her.
Lauren herself graduated with honours, no surprise there.
Their graduation party was off of the hook, they drank, laughed, danced and had a ton of fun with their friends. Tamsin even graduated this time too, she had kept her head down all year and studied hard. The oldest Lewis decided that she wanted to study abroad, so without telling anyone she applied for Oxford University.
And to her surprise, they accepted her. She wanted the change of scenery, plus she thought that it would be nice to get away from the crazy world that they lived in.
With Tamsin off in the UK, it was now Lauren's turn to fly the coop. She and Bo had worked out a schedule so that they could see each other. Yale and Columbia were only over an hour away from each other, so it wasn't so bad.
But they still craved each other like crazy. In an entire year, that one thing hadn't changed. In fact it had only gotten stronger as the weeks went on. They spent the entire summer together, knowing that they weren't going to see each other every morning.
Ciara was also attending Yale, but she took her sweet time in telling her best friend that. Madison was proving to be a pain in Bo's ass, the Angel was attending Yale to study Neuro Surgery. And she wanted nothing more than to share a house with Lauren. Her crush couldn't be more obvious.
The succubus knew that she had nothing to worry about, she would never put odds against what she and Lauren shared.
But Madison was persistent, and very annoying. Lauren held off on giving her fellow Matriarch and answer due to how Bo felt about her. The blonde knew that her girlfriend wouldn't be happy.
So when Ciara informed them both that she would be coming to Yale, the blonde was ecstatic. She then told Madison that she had already promised to share a house with Ciara. Madison was disappointed but she quickly got over it.
Now here they were. Months later and settled into their respected schools. Ciara was out for the night with some new friends she had met in her Law class. Which meant that Lauren was all alone, she wondered how her girlfriend was doing at this precise moment.
Bo hadn't called all day, which was weird for them. The succubus hadn't even used the necklace that Lauren had given her. Lauren didn't want to be all clingy and bombard the brunette with messages, Bo was probably busy and that was why she hadn't gotten in touch.
Lauren decided to take a shower, she had a long day today. Medical school was no picnic. Thanks to her father's legendary status in the university. Lauren and Ciara shared a small house that was just next to the campus. Which meant no communal showers, and that was a blessing in itself.
Just as she was about to grab a towel she heard a knock at the front door. She wasn't expecting anyone, but Madison loved to surprise her with a visit. Lauren felt like ignoring it, if it was Madison then she wasn't in the mood. But she had this uncontrollable need to please people.
Lauren made her way to the front door, unlocking it and turning the handle. What she saw shocked her.
"Hey Beautiful" Bo gave a wide smile.
The blonde was beyond happy, she jumped into her girlfriend's arms. Wrapping her arms around the brunette's neck as Bo lifted her up by her waist. Lauren kissed her hard. It had been a week since they had been in each other's presence. She didn't expect this at all, in fact she didn't even sense her girlfriend's energy. She wondered why that was.
Bo walked them inside, kicking the door closed behind her. Once she was in, she placed Lauren on her feet and quickly shook off her black leather jacket. "What are you doing here?" the blonde asked, it wasn't that she wasn't happy to see her. But she didn't think that Bo would have had the time to just drive down to visit..
"My teacher is out sick for today, so my classes are cancelled. I thought that I would drive down for the weekend and surprise you. Are you surprised?" the brunette smirked as she snaked her arms back around her girlfriend's waist.
"Very. Is that why you haven't called today?" the blonde asked.
Bo nodded, "Yeah, I wanted to be spontaneous so I didn't call or use the necklace. Just good old fashioned, planning…" she laughed. "… Where's Ciara?" the succubus looked around the house. Not hearing the usual arguing coming from the fairy's room.
She and Dyson had been having some relationship problems in the last few months. Dyson was on a football scholarship in UCLA, and the distance was eating away at them.
"She's out with friends, told me not to wait up" Lauren gave her girlfriend a seductive smile.
Bo didn't need to be told twice, the brunette squeezed her girlfriend's hips as she leaned in for another kiss. One week was too long for them. They pulled apart to remove their clothes, smiling at each other as they were completely naked.
"God I missed you…" the succubus let out taking in her girlfriend's fine physique. She lunged at the blonde, letting her fingers touch the Angel's warm skin.
Lauren turned her head with a moan as the succubus kissed down her neck. In the last year they had gotten very good at the whole 'having sex' thing. When your girlfriend was a Succubus you pick up a thing or two.
Bo took a few steps forward, stopping when she heard the loud noise of Lauren's back crashing into an end table. Knocking over a lamp. Both of them pulled away, looking to the bits of glass on the floor. "Please tell me that was yours and not Ciara's?" Bo asked, knowing how touchy the fairy would get when her stuff was messed with.
"Actually, it was a gift from Madison" Lauren couldn't hold in her laugh.
"Oh… Okay" the succubus laughed kissing her again. She was glad that it wasn't important or valuable. And since it was Madison's then she couldn't give a rat's ass how much it cost. The brunette led them into her girlfriend's room. Bo noticed a towel on her girlfriend's bed, she must have interrupted her shower time. That gave the succubus an idea.
"You know, I feel really filthy after my drive… What do you say we take a shower together? Preserve water and all?" the brunette smirked.
"What a coincidence, I was about to take one before you showed up. Preserving water sounds great to me" the blonde whispered as she placed a spine shivering kiss under the succubus' ear. Earning a low moan from her. Lauren pulled away and dragged the brunette into her bathroom, starting the shower and watching as the glass walls steamed up quickly.
Once they were in, they kissed feverishly as they were caught under the hot water. Droplets rolling down their naked bodies. Lauren bent her right leg a little, and Bo wasted no time in settling her throbbing centre on her skin. The brunette's right leg doing the same, Lauren gasped as she felt her girlfriend's thigh come in contact with the spot she wanted it to most.
The blonde hiked her left leg up, wrapping it around the succubus' waist. Bo grabbed her girlfriend's hips again, pulling them closer so that they could find the rhythm they were looking for. And boy did they find it. "Oh god…" the brunette let out, breathing heavily into her girlfriend's neck as she continued to rock her hips into the Angel's.
Lauren felt like she was high right now. For normal people, being a part for a week wouldn't be such a bad thing. But for them, it was torture. So now that they were together, they were going to savour the moment. Bo was so glad that her teacher was sick, otherwise she would have had to have waited longer to see her girlfriend.
They moved faster, at this point the blonde was holding onto Bo. Her toes were curling from the build-up of pleasure that she was feeling. Bo thought that now was the time to take some chi from her girlfriend, she hadn't fed in almost a week.
She didn't ever want to feed off of anyone except for Lauren. She was going to be monogamous, even if she had to die trying. Although, she didn't think that it would ever come to that.
Lauren's chi was very powerful, Bo would only ever need a little bit from her. The succubus leaned in for a kiss, but made sure not to stop her movements. Bo pulled a strong flow of chi from her girlfriend, while rocking her hips faster. That was all it took to push them both over the edge, the brunette stopped the feed as they both cried out. Their groans muffled by the sputtering of the shower.
"You know, sometimes I think that I can't handle this whole long distance thing…" Bo started as she caught her breath. "… But then this happens and it's so worth it" she chuckled.
Lauren joined in on her laughter, placing her feet firmly on the shower floor. Her legs were like jelly. But she loved it. "Couldn't agree with you more. Let's finish up in here and then order some dinner" the blonde grabbed the soap. She still needed a shower.
Ten minutes later, the couple had exited the shower. Bo quickly changed into some presentable clothes before heading out to her car and grabbing her small duffle bag that she had packed for the weekend.
Once she got back into the house, she changed into some pyjamas. Nothing revealing, just a tank top and some shorts. Lauren did the same and then called out for some Chinese food. The two girls were sat on the couch, watching a movie as they waited for their food to be delivered.
"So, how is your Photography class going?" Lauren asked.
Bo was majoring in Art & Design. Which covered a wide array of subjects, including Photography. Which is what she had her mind set on before applying. "It's great! My teacher is pretty cool, and the classes are fun. And so are the assignments…." the brunette smiled. "… What about you? How was your day?"
"It was long… But hopefully it's going to pay off. Seriously though…" the blonde scooted closer to her girlfriend, leaning in to capture her lips into a soft kiss. "… I am really glad that you're here" she smiled. The brunette hummed in agreement, she was really glad that she was here too. Being without Lauren was torture for her.
Bo laid back on the couch, bringing Lauren with her who just snuggled up into her girlfriend's side and rested her head on Bo's chest. "So, tell me… Is Madison still creeping around you?" the succubus asked with a chuckle.
"She's not creeping, she just has a little crush. It's flattering" Lauren smiled. She knew that Madison had a huge crush on her, it didn't take a genius to figure it out.
"Yeah, uh… No, crushes are creepy. Especially when the crushee has a girlfriend who hates the crusher" Bo let out in a huff.
Lauren lifted her head up onto her hand as she looked down to her girlfriend. Who she could see was not amused. "This really bothers you doesn't it? Why? You know that I would never go there with her" the blonde could never love anyone but Bo.
"I know. And it's not you that I'm worried about, it's Madison. I hate that she gets to be here with you while I'm over an hour away. She's just waiting for this whole long distance thing to break us up so that she has her chance with you" the brunette didn't want to feel insecure about this, but she couldn't help it.
She did.
"Okay, first of all… I don't think that it counts as long distance if you are only an hour away. What Dyson and Ciara have, that is long distance. Second of all, Madison will be waiting a long time because I am never going to be done with you. We promised that we are forever, and that's what we're gonna be. Got it?" the Angel was serious. She didn't care about how Madison felt, she loved Bo and only Bo.
The succubus smiled, reaching up to touch her girlfriend's angelic face with her hand. "Got it" she nodded leaning in for a tender kiss. Suddenly, they heard the jingle of someone's keys come from the front door.
"Hey Lauren? I ran into the delivery guy on the way in so i paid for it for you, seems like you have a lot here for just yourself…" Ciara entered the house to see her favourite couple on the couch. "… BO!" the fairy squealed dropping the bag on the kitchen table and running over to the couch.
Luckily, Lauren moved before her best friend flattened her. Ciara jumped on Bo and hugged her, in the last couple of months Ciara had been very homesick. So whenever Bo would come to visit, the succubus always got a massive hug.
The Angel went to the kitchen and started to unpack the food, she loved Ciara to death but she was kind of hoping for it to be just her and Bo tonight.
Once Ciara was done suffocating Bo, they both got up and took a seat at the table. "So what happened to me not waiting up for you?" Lauren asked passing her girlfriend three plates to share out.
"Oh yeah, sorry. I was going to stay out later, but Dyson called and we got into this huge fight. So I just felt like coming home and drowning my sorrows in a tub of Cookie dough ice cream" the fairy sighed sadly.
Lauren kind of felt bad for wanting her gone now, she could feel Ciara's heartbreak. And it was very strong, which could only mean that the fight that she had with Dyson was bigger than she was letting on.
"You broke up, didn't you?" the Angel asked, knowing what the answer was.
"Yup…" Ciara smiled, she was trying to keep her tears from coming out but it wasn't working.
Lauren moved quickly and gathered her friend in her arms, she hated seeing someone that she loved upset. Her empathy power was on overdrive right now, it was as if it was happening to her herself.
Bo leaned over and touched Ciara's arm gently. She was pissed at Dyson right now. "You want me to kick his ass?" the succubus offered. He probably deserved it.
Ciara laughed as she pulled away from Lauren. Bo didn't know what was so funny, because she was dead serious at the moment. "No, thanks though. I guess it just wasn't meant to be" the fairy wiped away her tears.
"Long distance isn't for everyone" Lauren gave her friend a sympathetic smile.
Ciara laughed. "Works for you guys"
Bo and Lauren looked at each other, not everyone had the bond that they did. And as Lauren had said before, theirs wasn't really a long distance relationship. It was just like living an hour away from each other.
"Tell you what? Let's just forget about this, and we'll eat our greasy food. And then we'll watch a movie, your pick. How does that sound?" the succubus asked, looking to the fairy. Ciara nodded, that sounded amazing to her right now. She just wanted to be with friends.
Later
Once they were done with dinner, the girls moved over to the couch to watch a movie. Since it was Ciara's choice, the fairy chose a horror. They were half way through My Bloody Valentine, when the fairy fell asleep with her head resting in Lauren's lap.
She was devastated and exhausted, they knew that she wouldn't have lasted long. Bo and Lauren quietly left her to sleep, placing a blanket over her and tucking her in.
It was now past 1.a.m. and Bo and Lauren were nice and warm under the covers of the blonde's bed. "I can't believe that they broke up…" the blonde muttered quietly. Bo was laying behind her girlfriend, with a possessive arm over the blonde's hip. "… You don't think that he cheated on her do you?" the angel asked.
She couldn't stop thinking of reasons why Dyson wanted to end it. From what Ciara had told them, the young wolf was the one who initiated the break-up.
"Dyson might be an asshole from time to time, but he wouldn't do that to her. At least I hope that he wouldn't. I guess we will never know. But it does make me appreciate the fact that our schools are so close. I couldn't imagine being on the other side of the country" the brunette admitted. It made her really glad that she didn't apply anywhere else.
"Me neither" Lauren placed her hands over her girlfriend's.
"Let's get some sleep. This weekend is all we will have for a while, so let's make sure that we don't waste it" the succubus whispered in her ear. The bed shifted as Lauren turned around in her girlfriend's arms, without saying anything she captured Bo's lips in a soft kiss.
"Promise me that we won't let the whole, different schools thing get the better of us. I can't imagine losing you" the blonde pleaded, she didn't want to end up like Dyson and Ciara.
Bo smiled and cupped the blonde's cheek. "I promise. We're not them babe, we have been doing just fine since we got here and we will continue to do fine. Okay? I love you" she kissed her on the forehead.
"I love you too" Lauren whispered, closing her eyes and settling herself in her girlfriend's arms. Both of them fell asleep rather quickly. Bo's drive was long, and so was Lauren's day of studying. They were happy to be in each other's arms.
New Orleans
The room was quiet, so quiet that all that was heard was the cackling of the roaring fire inside of the stone fireplace. The grandfather clock sounded as it struck twelve. It was midnight, and Mason had yet to retire to his bed.
He walked to his balcony, hearing the smooth jazz coming from the streets below him. In two thousand years this was the only city on earth that he liked to call his home. To passing tourists, New Orleans was the city of the dead. Witches, ghosts, and many other supernatural creatures also called it home.
In all of his life, this was the only time that he felt at peace. Everyone in the French Quarter answered to him, he was to be feared and no one ever challenged him. Those that did, wouldn't live to see the next day.
He was a King of sorts, he liked being in charge. He liked being a ruler. But being King was lonely, Mason had no one. Only the people that he had dominion over. He had no friends, no family and his parents were long dead. He also had no siblings.
Although, he did have one child. A child that he didn't know, and who didn't know him. He didn't foresee himself having one, and it was only a couple of months ago that he knew of her existence.
A daughter, he never would have thought that his first heir would be a girl. He remembered her Mother fondly, Princess Aife McCorrigan. Daughter of the Blood King. Mason thought back to when he first laid eyes on the gorgeous succubus…
The French Quarter (1995)
February in New Orleans was one of the best times to visit. Everyone would take to the streets to celebrate Mardi Gras. Parades were made, Masquerade Balls were thrown. This was Mason's favourite thing about this city, the fact that nearly every month was cause for celebration.
For tourists it was all about having fun and partying hard, all the while exploring the beautiful and yet mysterious city that it was.
But for the other living creatures, it was all about the hunt, the feed, and the kill. And none loved it more than Mason. He enjoyed the chase, the pleasure he got when making his kill was indescribable.
Although, he didn't necessarily feed. That wasn't what his kind did. Mason wasn't Light or Dark, but he liked to think that he was a bit of both.
When he made a kill, he felt like it curbed a rather vicious beast that lived inside of him. One that he was cursed to live with for eternity. Mason used to be an Angel, in fact he still was. But he didn't feel that he could really call himself that anymore.
Over two thousand years ago, he fell from grace and was banished to remain on earth forever. Not many angels fell from grace, so when it did happen it was always because of something bad.
He didn't know much about Earth when he first descended from the heavens. Just that he loathed it. However, as the times changed. The cultures evolved and modernised, he had grown to love it. Especially the home that he had built in New Orleans. It was the only place that felt remotely close to home.
It was well past into the early morning, and the party was still going. Mason held a masquerade ball at his house every year. He had to keep up appearances, he would invite the city's finest The mayor, police commissioner, everyone that mattered.
How Aife managed to get into such a luxury event was beyond him, it only proved how persuasive her succubus charms were. Mason was making his sweep, mingling with his guests, none of them aware of the company that they were keeping. Then he saw her, dressed in an elegant white satin gown. He felt compelled to approach her.
"Forgive me, I don't believe that I've had the pleasure…" he smiled offering his hand to her.
Aife smiled back, taking his offered hand and watched him bring it to his lips. Kissing the top her hand like a gentleman. Since it was a masquerade ball, everyone had masks on.
Mason was dressed in a fitted black suit, with a black mask. "… My apologies for staring, but you are very beautiful" he had to get that out.
"Are all of the men in this city so flattering?" Aife asked with a laugh.
"There is at least one…" Mason smiled, he liked to think that he had his own unique charms. "… What brings you to The Big Easy?" he asked, the fallen angel had gotten into the habit of using pop culture references throughout the years. He was still getting used to it.
"Just passing through. I thought that I would explore one last city before I head home" she replied.
"And where is home?" he asked. Aife eyed him wearily, he was asking a lot of questions. Mason caught onto her look, he was prying. "Where are my manners? My name is Mason Erikson, and you would be?"
"Aife McCorrigan" she introduced herself.
"As in the daughter of the Blood King?" he asked.
"I see that my Father's reach is longer than I thought. To be honest I didn't think that I would get recognised here" the succubus admitted, she didn't like living in her Father's shadow. But unfortunately it was something that she was stuck with.
"I have been around a long time, and have heard of your father, and the things that he has done. And of you, although not much is said about the beautiful Princess Aife" he chuckled.
Aife raised her hand, "Please, I am just like everyone else. I would prefer to leave my title at home, with my Father. I never have liked labels" It wasn't horrible being a Princess, but when you had a Father like Trick it was hard to love it.
"Of course, can I offer you a drink perhaps?" Mason gestured to the bar on his far left.
"Yes you can" Aife laughed following him over to the bar.
Four glasses of champagne later and they were laughing about all sorts of things. Mason confessed that he was more or less the King of this city. At least in the territory that he had claimed. Aife didn't believe him at first, but once he demonstrated his authority all she could do was take his word.
Aife had intended to leave the next day, but something about this man was telling her to stay put for now. They ended up meeting again, Mason invited Aife to dinner at his compound. He wined and dined her, and treated her like a woman should always be treated.
Before she knew it, two months had passed. She rarely ever left his side, and when she did she could never stay away for long. The allure that Mason had was out of this world, Aife didn't know what kind of Fae that he was. She assumed that he would tell her in time.
The Succubus was prepared the say that she loved him, that was until she had seen him do something unspeakable. One night, as they laid in bed together after a night of passion. There was a knock on the door to Mason's bedroom.
Mason told Aife to remain inside of the room while he dealt with the problem. Normally Aife listened, but this time she wanted to know what was going on. It was after all, almost three in the morning. What could possibly be so important at this hour?
She tied a robe around her body and set off to find him, then she heard grumbling voices. She turned a corner, coming to a stop as she looked down into the courtyard inside of the compound.
"What is the meaning of this intrusion?" Mason asked his right hand man, Kal.
"We did not mean to disturb you, but we thought that this took importance" Kal said.
Mason huffed. "Well don't just stand there! What is it?" he asked, he didn't have time for this. And he hated being woken up in the middle of the night.
Kal clapped his hands, "Bring him in!" he called out.
Mason watched as two of his men entered the compound with another man who had his hands tied. He had also been badly beaten. "What is the meaning of this?" The Angel asked.
"I am afraid that this fine gentleman, has been plotting against you my friend…" Kal kicked the back of the captive's legs, causing him to fall to his knees. "… Show some respect!" he ordered.
"Would you care to elaborate?" Mason didn't understand any of this. He hadn't really done much in the last two months, being with Aife and being in love had changed him. He wasn't the ruthless monster that he used to be.
"He has been blackmailing a coven of Witches that reside in the Quarter, so that they would create a weapon powerful enough to kill you" Kal explained.
Mason raised an eyebrow, this was different. Over the course of his reign here, many threats had been thrown at him. But none were ever carried out. No one knew how to kill him, which was one of the things that made him most feared.
"How did you hear of this?" he asked.
"One of the witches, Annie Laveau. She came to me, and informed me of what this filth was planning" Kal looked down at the restrained man.
Mason took the man's tied hands, lifting him up to stand. "Have I done something to anger you my friend?" he wanted to know why this man was plotting against him.
"I'm not your friend!" the man spat.
"Very well, then tell me. What is it that I have done, to inspire such hatefulness?" Mason asked.
The man looked at him in disgust, he didn't like him one bit. "You had my family killed, all for the greater good of your plan to take this city for you own" he said.
"I see, so you seek revenge?" the Angel wondered.
"Damn right! Although, it doesn't look like that's something that I am going to get now. All I ask for now, is a quick death" the man held his head high. He wasn't ashamed of what he had done, he just wanted justice for his family.
"As you wish…" Mason snapped his fingers, and watched the man turn to dust before him. All that was left of the traitor was a pile of ash.
Aife brought her hand up to her mouth, she couldn't believe what she had just witnessed. She knew that Mason had a temper, but she had never seen him kill someone so easily and without hesitation.
"… Have this cleaned up immediately. I do not want Aife seeing it" he said.
"You got it" Kal set off to find the cleaners.
Aife ran back to the bedroom, shaking off her robe and climbing back into bed. She couldn't let on that she saw anything. Mason made his way back into the room, seeing that his beloved was still fast asleep with her back turned to him. He got into bed and settled behind her, holding her from behind.
Aife's eyes were wide open, how could she sleep after what she just witnessed? She realised in that moment, that she couldn't stay here anymore.
Present
After than night, Aife took off without a word to Mason. He was very angry at first, he tried his hardest to locate her. But he had no luck, he wondered if she was dead. Maybe that was why he couldn't find her. He could find anyone, anywhere. But not her.
Losing Aife was hard on him, and it also affected the way he ran his city. He pardoned no one, made no exceptions for anyone. And he enforced his rules more than before.
It wasn't until a couple of months ago, that he found out where Aife was. He had her home town of Mandrake Falls searched, but no one found her. Until now, one of his men was passing through the town when he spotted the succubus coming out of a coffee shop with a young girl.
The man told Mason that it looked like the girl was her daughter. When he saw the photographs he couldn't believe his eyes.
Aife's so called daughter, looked the spitting image of his own Mother in her youth. He had his men find out everything that they could on that girl. Mason learned that her name was Ysabeau McCorrigan, but she liked to be called Bo. And she was born in the month of February 1996. That was ten months after Aife had left him.
He knew in his bones that she was his blood, he could see it. He was happy to know that he had a daughter, but also very furious that Aife had kept her from him for eighteen years.
Did he not have the right to know that he was a Father? What was it that he did to make her do such a horrible thing? He wanted to know this girl, he had missed most of her life already. He didn't want to miss anymore, she was his only heir. Bo would stand to inherit his territory when he passed.
He would rather it go to family, than to Kal. He valued the shifter's loyalty, he had know him so long that he was like a Brother to him. But he wanted it to be kept in the family. Mason looked up into the night's sky, wondering what his daughter was doing right now. The fallen angel held the picture of his daughter up, smiling at her features.
"We will meet soon my daughter… Very soon" he whispered to himself.
