Chapter 14 – Epilogue

5 Months Later

After the initial shock of finding out she was pregnant in November and the subsequent period of denial, Bo attacked the Christmas spirit with a fervour. In the first couple of months of her pregnancy Bo was channelling Martha Stewart. The house was decorated to the nines with none of the kitsch that Kenzi and Bo were so famous for. After the first couple of months Bo began to channel one of those crazy helicopter parents. The Valkyries put the bikes away in deference to the harsh winter. When Tamsin had suggested taking them out again in March, a heavily pregnant Bo had given her the biggest guilt trip about being on her last life and having to think about others and not just herself. The other Valkyries had laughed until Bo gave them the same speech.

The bikes were still collecting dust in the garage.

Unlike Kenzi who only really started showing in the last part of her pregnancy, Bo was enormous. Tamsin made the mistake of joking that her belly entered the room a day before Bo did. A week sleeping on the hard bunk at her barracks in Valhalla stopped any more jokes that Tamsin had saved up.

Bo was now seven months pregnant and according to Lauren could drop anytime between last month and next month. Whilst Tamsin thought that Bo looked more beautiful everyday, it didn't change the fact that she looked like she was about to give birth to a water buffalo while her personality swung insanely between Mother Theresa and Elizabeth Bathory.

Aoife had gone to stay in Switzerland. Evony arranged for her to stay in a private Fae clinic to help her come to terms with centuries of abuse. Freya had arranged to have a portal stone kept at the hospital so Bo could visit any time she wanted. The two women also kept in touch over the phone and Aoife would tell Bo all she remembered from being pregnant. Tamsin also kept in touch with Aoife over the phone when Bo wasn't around so she could get some help in dealing with a pregnant sex demon that seemed to throw all logic and reason out of the window.

The Valkyries took it in turns to help out the Morrigan when Tamsin wasn't available but today a heavily pregnant and seriously pissed of Succubus had told Tamsin that she needed to get out from under her feet so Tamsin, sleep depraved and thoroughly confused at what she had done wrong this time, found herself in Evony's office.

She stood at attention by the back door listening as the Morrigan berated the man in her office. She tuned out most of what was said as she took stock of her depleted energy levels. The last few months since Bo found out she was pregnant had been the longest of her life. The two AM cravings for unpronounceable and unobtainable food, the wildly swinging emotions, the crazy ideas that had her visiting schools that their child might attend in five years along with Lamaze classes, pregnancy health and juicing courses and baby health and safety seminars. The last item had upset Bo so much Tamsin had to hire someone to baby proof the entire house to the point she couldn't open most of the cupboards in her own home. Even Kenzi was getting ready to kill her. This baby couldn't turn up fast enough as far as either of them were concerned.

Tamsin hadn't slept through the night in weeks. She leaned against the wall behind her and figured it wouldn't hurt to just close her eyes for a minute.

Evony faced off over her desk with the antagonistic Fae. "Let me be clear Claremont, we will have peace between the Fae, if that means light and dark forge closer alliances then so be it. If I hear of one more instance of you trying to sabotage that, the next time you hear from my office, Tamsin will be delivering the message on my behalf."

Claremont fumed as The Morrigan threatened him. He looked to the side at the woman she had threatened him with. Tamsin was using the wall to hold herself up as she slept, a thin line of drool ran out of the corner of her mouth and her luscious blonde hair looked like she hadn't brushed it in weeks.

"You'll forgive me if I don't find that as alarming as you would like." He sneered at her.

Evony looked at Tamsin and rolled her eyes. She dropped a large book from her desk onto the floor, the thump reverberating around the room.

In a flash Tamsin opened her eyes and flung a blade, that Claremont had no idea she was carrying, into his thigh.

"Fuck! What the hell? What is wrong with you?" He cried out.

"Shit, sorry." Tamsin staggered over. She looked up at Evony. "Did you want me to stab him?"

Evony shrugged. "Well it's done now, so let's just assume I did."

"Here let me get that for you." Tamsin tried to help him remove the dagger.

"Jesus, get her away from me."

"I mean it Claremont, it stops. Now." Evony pointed to the door, trying hard not to laugh as he backed out, trying to stop the bleeding.

When the door closed, Tamsin dropped down on the couch.

"How's the pregnancy going?" Evony asked innocently laughing at Tamsin's look of exhaustion.

"I just had sex for 3 days straight. I swear to God I cant keep up. She's feeding for two apparently. Feels like she is feeding for two hundred."

Evony winced. "Cant you get some help?"

Tamsin lay down on the couch and snuggled into the leather. "No cause, and I'm quoting here, I don't want the baby fed by strangers."

"What about your sisters?"

Tamsin pulled a blanket over herself. "Nope, they're scared of her. They think I am a sexual legend cause I haven't died yet. How's Lauren doing?"

Evony smiled and turned to look at the photo of Lauren on her desk. "Couple of weird cravings, but mostly she is calm and happy. She is angelic and glowing. Did Bo stop throwing things at you?" Evony looked over at the couch, smirking as Tamsin began snoring.

*/*/*/

After she had slept a couple of hours through all of Evony's meetings, Evony woke her up and Tamsin made her way home. It was dark in the house so she let herself in quietly surprised to find Bo sitting on the floor by the couch crying softly, Toby sat patiently with his head in her lap.

"Hey. What's going on? What happened?" She asked gently as she approached the Succubus warily in case she turned again.

"Where have you been? I told you to go out for five minutes and let me calm down and you left me!" Bo cried.

Tamsin took her into her arms and rocked her. "Actually, you told me that I should go away and come back after the baby was born when I might be some use."

Bo started crying again. "I'm so sorry, you must hate me, I'm like momzilla and you've been nothing but sweet and kind and caring. I couldn't ask for a more supportive partner. I'm sorry my moods are so crazy." She sniffed.

Tamsin kissed the top of her head, making soothing noises in her hair.

"I didn't mean it, I was just sore and I hadn't slept well, that Gyros with the extra chilies you made me eat yesterday gave me indigestion."

Tamsin made the mistake of laughing.

"What's so funny about that?" Bo frowned.

Tamsin froze. "Nothing." She mumbled.

"Well it must be something, why are you laughing?"

Tamsin shifted, hoping to dislodge Bo long enough to make a run for it if needed. "It's just that you said I made you eat it."

"And?" Bo glared at her.

"Well, it's just that was kinda funny, cause you sent me out at 4am to find it even after I suggested you try to sleep through it cause it would make you sick, like the other 5 times you did it."

"Right, so you're saying I'm stupid and that's funny to you is it?" Bo snapped as she jumped up.

Tamsin was impressed that Bo was able to do anything that quick anymore and took it as a stark reminder that she must never become complacent.

"Well, I'm sorry if my hormones are such a burden to you Tamsin." She started crying again. "It's no wonder you don't find me attractive any more. I'm hideous. Is this why you don't have sex with me now?"

"We have sex all the time."

"Yes but you don't want to!" Bo yelled.

Tamsin stood up, not moving a muscle until she could figure a way out of this. Bo watched her, frozen to the spot and her mood swung in the opposite direction again.

"I'm horrible! I'm like the worst person in the world and I don't know you why stay with me." She wailed, flinging herself into Tamsin's arms, her legs wrapping around the blonde. Tamsin used every trick in the book not to stagger back under the surprise weight.

"You're not horrible, you are beautiful and I love you and I can not wait to meet our baby." Tamsin smiled, pleased that she didn't add anything to that sentence, like for the love of God will you please give birth.

"Promise me you'll never leave me Tamsin." Bo sobbed into Tamsin's neck and the Valkyrie fell in love all over again.

"I promise, I will never you leave you. You wanna go to bed? Have a snack, get some sleep?" She kissed Bo, teasing her lips open.

Bo nodded. "I wish you could still carry me up the stairs."

Tamsin smirked. "Well what kind of all powerful war maiden would I be if I couldn't carry a tiny Succubus and a baby, hmm?" She walked them toward the stairs, congratulating herself again on not wincing as her joints protested.

Bo started giggling. "My big strong warrior." She went to kiss Tamsin's neck when she cried out in pain.

"What's wrong?" Tamsin pulled back to look at her.

Bo winced. "Nothing, it's just a cramp from that damn gyros, its been doing that all day."

Tamsin frowned at her. "All day? Like, at intervals?"

"Yeah, lately it's been like every ten minutes, been driving me nuts I cant get comfortable and Toby keeps shoving his nose in my belly every time it happens."

Tamsin felt the blood drain from her face. "Ten minutes? For how long?"

Bo frowned. "I don't know, it's not like I was timing it or anything, jeez."

"Not timing it? You utter loon! That's exactly what you are supposed to be doing! Dear God Bo, you're in labour!" Tamsin yelled.

Toby started howling.

"Please, I think I would know if I was in labour." Bo winced again and looked down in surprise at the wet stain that started spreading across Tamsin's stomach. "Oh." She whispered.

Tamsin looked down as well and realized that all the blood, gore and bodily fluids that she had ever been covered in during every battle she had ever fought in, could not prepare her for the level of nausea she currently felt. She looked up at Bo and it struck her like a thunderbolt. She breathed once, twice and opened her mouth. "Baby! Baby! Baby coming! You have a baby coming! Oh fuck, there's a baby coming. What do we do? Where are the notes? I wrote notes! Fuck, where did I put the notes." She was turning around at the speed of light, Bo still in her arms. "OK! OK! The main thing is you don't panic!" Tamsin started to hyperventilate as Toby howled even louder.

Bo climbed down and stood on the floor, she watched the flailing blonde and the neurotic dog before shaking her head and walking calmly to the phone. When Lauren answered Bo told her that her waters had broken and could she open a portal to come get her and make sure she brought some knock out drops.

"OK, I'm leaving now, are you in pain?" She asked, looking at the phone in confusion as another plaintive howl came through it.

"No, the drugs are for Tamsin."

*/*/*/

Bo was getting settled on the bed, her feet in the stirrups, practising her breathing. Everyone had been summoned and the waiting room was again packed while they waited for news.

"Stop staring!" Tamsin snapped at one of the medical techs. "Hey! What the hell are you doing?" Tamsin grabbed him as he stood between Bo's thighs.

"Um, I'm shaving her in case we need to stitch her afterwards."

Tamsin shoved him away. "Does she look like she needs shaving genius? Fuck, did you even deliver a baby before? Wait, stitches? What, down there?" Tamsin felt her eyes water. "Oh God that's gross."

Bo glared at her again.

Lauren snapped on a pair of surgical gloves and moved the confused tech gently out of the way. "I'm going to check to see how dilated you are OK?" she smiled at Bo who nodded. Lauren entered her gently before pulling out to make some notes.

Bo looked at Tamsin who had a barely contained smirk on her face. "Seriously? Are you seriously telling me you are turned on right now?"

Tamsin didn't have time to check herself. "What? I cant say I didn't wonder how you looked with her." As soon as the words left her mouth, Tamsin knew she had signed her own death warrant. "What I mean is..."

Bo screamed as another contraction tore through her. "What you mean is that I am going to kill you as soon as I have finished giving birth! Oh fuck that hurts!" She grabbed onto Tamsin's arm.

Of all the horrifying things that had been done to Tamsin's body over the years, she couldn't remember anything being as painful as Bo's current grip on her flesh.

"Oh God Tamsin!" Bo screamed.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow." Tamsin screamed back.

"Quit being such a baby, you think you know what pain is? Try inserting a bowling ball inside you for 6 months and then passing it back out! Pull yourself together."

Tamsin looked at Bo wide eyed.

"Are you crying?" Bo sneered.

"No." Tamsin wiped her sleeve over her face quickly.

Bo changed into an angel. "Oh God, you are. I made you cry. I don't know why you stay, you should run away as fast as you can!" Bo flopped down onto the bed dramatically.

Tamsin stood there in utter confusion before she felt Lauren take her gently by the arm. "Perhaps you should wait outside for a little while, I'm sure everyone would like to know how she's doing." She smiled at the forlorn Valkyrie.

Tamsin nodded mutely and walked into the waiting room as Bo let out another blood curdling scream.

Kenzi saw her first. She jumped up with Hailey in her arms. "How's she doing?" She asked excitedly.

Tamsin stared at them. Dyson, Val, Evony, Kenzi and her squad. "She's a fucking demon!" She dropped down to the plastic chair and prepared to wait.

Everyone winced in sympathy each time Bo's screams echoed around the waiting room. Kenzi had handed Hailey to Tamsin to keep her distracted, the baby seemed to find the whole thing amusing.

Finally Lauren came out smiling and they all stood to greet her. "C'mon in, there's someone you want to meet in here."

They walked in, one after the other, each of them smiling at an exhausted Bo and the sleeping baby in her arms.

Bo looked at Tamsin and smiled. "Come and say hi to your daughter."

Tamsin stared at Bo and the tiny child. She opened her mouth to speak, closed it, opened it again when all of a sudden her eyes rolled backwards and she collapsed to the floor.

Before anyone could move, the Valkyries all grabbed for their phones and started taking photos, laughing uproariously.

Kenzi looked to the unconscious Tamsin and back to the grinning blondes. "Why are you taking photos of her?

Sigjold smiled. "This tiny creature has done what no one has managed to do in millennia. She knocked Tamsin out without lifting a finger."

Arun laughed. "Plus let's be honest, it's fucking hilarious!"
