Things that go bump in the night

The short walk to the hospital gave Faith some time to think. She tried to think about what to say to the wolf but no matter what she said…it didn’t sound good enough. I mean how do you tell a woman who traveled across continents to get away from you that you loved them and were a complete fool? Okay well that was good but would she listen?



Stopping outside the hospital, she took in the immense structure before hurrying to follow Jordana. Walking through the doors she followed the smaller girl through the halls and corridors. Taking in the hospital as she walked.



Stopping at the ward that no doubt held her mate she continued to follow Jordana. Stopping outside a hospital room Jordana turned to give her a questioning look. Faith nodded and they continued inside.



The room was done in whites and yellows. Turning to the beds she noticed that Raya did not have her own room. Focusing on the tall wolf she saw her lying in a hospital bed, impossibly still.



Raya was dressed in a traditional hospital gown, Faith noticed a small patch of hair was shaved away and covered with a gauze patch. Going to her side of the bed she sat down and gently taking the hand that wasn’t injected with the IV. She held it between her own, just looking at the taller woman.



‘How could I have been so stupid? This woman loved me enough to travel across time, and I let fear consume me.’ Faith smiled sadly at her wolf. Praying she would awaken so she could voice these thoughts.

Raya was drifting. Everything felt like it was wrapped in a blanket. She was in Egypt again, in all her finery. Standing in her room overlooking the Nile, turning she saw her mother standing and looking at her softly.



“Mother?”



“Raya, you have come home.” Her mother walked to her, softly cupping her cheek before turning and looking out the balcony.



“What am I doing here? Priest said I could not return.” Raya was confused. The last thing she remembered was Marie’s face shrinking from her vision.



“You have not returned. You are as you have been…you cannot die Raya. Much depends on you.”



“What does mother?”



“Her life, her greatness…without you she would die from sadness. You are her happiness. For you are the protector of the ones that protect the world.”



“What do you want me to do mother?”



“Don’t die my child. There is still so much for you to do.”



Raya felt faint as she drifted away form her mother, away from Egypt. Wincing at the bright lights above her she looked away…Faith?



“Faith?” God her voice was raspy. What was her mate doing here…she was certain she was in Germany still.



“Hey baby, umm…I came to tell you…I love you Raya. I’m sorry I was such an ass. Please…please forgive me?”



“…Wilson?”



“He’s gone. He’s not a part of my life like that…I just want you…im sorry its taken me this long to…to tell you”



Raya felt sad and happy at the same time. Her entire body felt heavy, she wanted to kiss Faith and knew if she didn’t feel so weak she would have.



She had come for her. She had followed her here and told her…her mate had found her.



“I love you Faith.”



“I love you too Raya…now get out of here so we can go home and …talk”



Raya laughed, wincing when it hurt her ribs a little. Turning she saw Jordana standing next to the wall, watching them closely. ‘Protective little thing’

Asher turned and lay on the chest of his lover. Looking up at Andrew sleep peacefully he smiled. They had had the house to themselves the last few days while Horus surprised Dawn with a trip to Vermont.



Kissing Andrew chest he rolled out of bed and pulled on his boxers and walked out of his room. He had to check on Skye and make breakfast, it had been nearly a week since Faith left and Skye missed her terribly.



Looking down at the little girl in her footie pajamas while she watched Dora in the living room, it suddenly occurred to Asher that he wanted this. A family…with Andrew, he knew he was young but that didn’t mean he didn’t know what he wanted.

“Skye…what do you want to eat?”



“Pop tarts.” She said without turning.



“No, you had pop tarts yesterday…you can have eggs or cereal.”



“Cereal…I want the bunny cereal Ashther.” Asher smiled; she still said his name with a lisp.

~One Week Later~



Raya lay in her bed at the boarding house. She had been discharged after four days much to the doctor’s surprise, no one could figure out how she healed so fast but no one was going to complain.



Raya watched as her lover quietly moved around the room, they hadn’t really talked and definitely hadn’t had sex since Faiths appearance over a week ago.



Raya shifted, she wasn’t sore anymore. It was just that she was stiff and restless. Watching as Faith settled into a chair beside the bed, she looked over at the slayer.

Smiling she watched as Faith studied the room and then when her gaze shifted over and she met Raya’s eyes, Raya smiled.



For the first time in almost six years she felt at peace.



Faith stood and carefully lay down beside the wolf. Wrapping her arms around the woman she rested her head on Raya’s shoulder.



“I missed you so much Ray. More than you know”



“I know Faith, I missed you too.”



“Will you love me…forever?” Faiths breath mingled with Raya’s. Feeling somewhat lightheaded Raya only managed a nod.



Leaning up Faith lightly touched her lips, once, twice. Raya wound her hand in Faiths hair to keep her pressed close. Massaging there lips together until the need for breathe became too much Faith pulled back and studied the taller woman.



She knew, this is where she always belonged. Slipping her hand under the woman’s shirt she felt the tense abdomen. Kissing a path from her lips to the wolfs pointed ear, she bit and nipped Raya’s jaw, licked and bit her ear.



Growling Raya found Faiths lips again…moaning she rolled them over and ran her hands over the slayers body. Relishing in the woman’s responses…her moans and groans, the way her body gyrated softly against her.



“Faith, I love you.”



“MmmGOD…loveyou Ray” Faith slipped her hands into Raya’s pants, squeezing her ass she wrapped her legs around the wolfs hips. Thrusting up she smiled when Raya gasped and ground down harder. Attacking Raya’s lips she moved her hands around and pushed her pants off her hips, slipping her hand between the wolfs legs, she gasped and moaned at the feel of the heat and wetness, smiling when Raya froze and growled.



Sitting up she pulled her top off and helped Raya get her top off, mindful of the stitches in the woman’s head. Biting and sucking her neck, chest and going lower. Blowing softly she leaned down and bit the wolfs nipples, Raya threw her head back and pressed Faiths head tighter into her breast.



Moaning loudly Raya pushed Faith down and moved down her body. Biting and sucking her hard nipples she brushed her hand down the woman’s stomach, slipping one finger into Faiths moist, wet pussy and rubbed her clit between two fingers before going further down and thrusting three fingers deep into Faith.



Pausing, only when Faith gasped and stiffened, waiting for her to relax and slowly began to thrust her fingers in and out of the smaller woman. Growling when she smelled the wave of arousal that flooded the room.





Moving down between Faiths legs she lifted the slayers legs onto her shoulders and began thrusting in earnest, moving faster when Faiths hips began a faster more erratic pace. Leaning down she bit Faiths neck, dragging her fangs slowly over the sweaty flesh.



“MMmhhohgodRaya” Faith swept her hands over the wolfs back, scratching down the woman’s back and hissing when Raya's fingers brushed her G-spot. Moaning louder again as Raya’s fingers began pressing that spot repeatedly.



“OOHHGAWD!” Faith clawed frantically as her orgasm swept through her entire body. Breathing hard she shook as the last of her orgasm tickled through her.



Leaning her head against her lovers Raya slowly removed her fingers. Leaning on her elbow she slowly licked and sucked each finger, while meeting eyes with her smaller lover.



Unable to stop herself Faith pulled down Raya for a hot sweaty kiss. Flipping her onto her back she bit and licked the hard abdomen, tickling her tongue in the sensitive wolfs navel, she drag it down until she reached Raya’s hard, solid clit. Taking the small nub between her lips, she suckled it and gently flicked her tongue onto the pulsing nub.



Growling Raya tried to push as much of her clit and pussy into Faiths mouth, moaning when Faith slipped two fingers into her quivering wet pussy. Thrusting with all her strength into Raya she curled her fingers, intentionally rubbing her fingers over that sensitive spot.



Snarling and growling Raya forced Faiths fingers deeper and deeper into her. Tensing when she felt herself teeter on the edge, she winced when she felt the beginnings of the shattering orgasm. Growling louder and louder at each stroke of Faiths skilled fingers and arched and howled when the force of the orgasm forced her over the edge.

~Epilogue: Twelve Years Later~





“Skye get down here RIGHT NOW young lady.” Faith screamed. Watching as her teenage daughter descended the stairs. Hearing Raya come out of the kitchen looking between them curiously. “Did you take the care out last night, after your mother and I told you not too?”



“Yeah I did. It was just down the stree…”



“I don’t care where it was we told you do NOT take the car out. How many times are we going to have this talk with you? You know what, I don’t want to hear whatever you have cooked up…go to your room your grounded.”



“MOM…you suck” Turning Skye turned and stalked up to her room.



“She’s such a drama queen…I have to get out back. David’s still going through the change.” Raya turned and kissed her wife softly. “See you tomorrow love”



Turning Raya continued out to the backyard of there home. Rejoining her son at the small sauna she had built for his change.



Faith thought back on the last ten years. Shortly after they got back together in Germany they got pregnant almost immediately with there son David and six years ago with there twin sons Garret and Chaye. Faith lowered her hand to there last child, growing in her stomach. She had been determined once they were surprised with this little ‘blessing’…a girl who was due to be born in two months that there were going to be no more children.



Life was good. They still lived on the campus property in the same house, Dawn and Horus had three kids of there own one boy and two girls, Daniel, Joyce and Elisabeth. Andrew and Asher had twin daughters, Jessica and Rosie.



Giles was still headmaster and Willow was in line to take over when he retired next year. She and Kennedy hadn’t lasted, but Willow was with Vikki now who much to everyone’s surprise had been in love with her since before the ‘Great Battle’ and Willow seemed happier than any of them could ever remember them being.





Kennedy had taken a job as team leader in Kenya and was happy with slaying and working with the remote tribes in that area.



Even Xander had found happiness in Cordelia. They had been married three years and were expecting a little boy. All in all everyone was happy and healthy.



The only dark spot was that Buffy had been missing for the last six years. Faith felt a waive of guilt go through her. Whatever it was that they had found in Germany, well…Buffy had gone missing. And try as she might she couldn’t remember anything clearly.



They had been tracking a nest of demons through the Black Forrest when they had stumbled on an old stone circle. The second B had stepped in the center she was gone. That was it…Faith gently massaged her swollen stomach.



“Someday well find her baby girl. I promise.”
