Chapter 398 - Trinity - Contacting The Fae Queen (VOLUME 3)

~~

Trinity

~~

The day after I read the letters, I felt rested and rejuvenated. I also realized that Reece had been the one to get up in the middle of the night to feed the babies with the stored milk. However, since I hadn't gotten up at all through the night, I had more milk than I needed for the morning so I asked Reece if he could feed Regan and Rika again and let me pump out the excess to store for later.

He agreed with no complaint, and it was getting easier now that the babies were older. They could hold the bottles on their own, and Reece just needed to keep an eye on them. The whole time that I was pumping for the morning I thought about what I needed to do.

In truth, I needed to call the Fae Queen and let her know what had happened. She might even be able to help us figure out who my Fae ancestors are. If they were still alive that is. I already knew that my great great grandfather had died, but aside from that I didn't know who was family and who wasn't. This was going to be difficult.

After Reece left and went to work for the day, I asked Lila to watch the babies while I worked on contacting the Fae Queen. I didn't know how to do it since I didn't know if she had a phone.

"Hey Trinity, how is it going?" Acacia answered the phone almost immediately. Her babies were almost six months old now and she sounded like she was tired.

"Hey, Casey. You sound tired."

"Oh, that I am, the boys are so exhausting, they are into everything. I look away for one second, and they've crawled two rooms away already. It's crazy how fast they are." I was laughing at it as she spoke, but I knew the feeling. Mine were the same way.

"Yeah, I can imagine. Two is hard, I can't even imagine three."

"I love it though. I love being a mommy."

"Me too. Hey, listen, I need to talk to Queen Gloriana."

"Aunt Glory? Why? Is something wrong?"

"Not wrong, not really anyway. But I need to talk to her about something really important."

"OK, I will tell you how to do it. She might be busy since she was joining the nobles on the hunt, and that can last for a long time. If she doesn't answer, just leave a message, she will get back to you when she can."

After that Casey told me how to send a message to the Queen. She said since I had magic already I should be able to do it no problem. Apparently, I needed to stand before a mirror and place my hand on its surface. After that I just needed to concentrate on who I was contacting, pour magic into the mirror, and speak a few precise words.

I went to my room and pulled a chair over in front of the full length mirror in the corner. I placed a hand on the surface, pulled the magic to the surface, thought of the Queen the way she was when we visited her, and then spoke the words that Casey told me to say.

"Mirror to mirror, person to person, connect us now, a message I must send."

I literally thought that I would get some sort of ringing sound that came next. It didn't, that would be too convenient.  However, the entire mirror did fog over, and I couldn't see my reflection in the mirror anymore at all.

The fog swirled around in different patterns and I was having fun trying to see what the shapes were before they disappeared. I guess I was easily amused at the moment.

"Oh look, a pretty flower. And that one there is a moose. Now some trees." I called them all out like an idiot. Cats, dogs, fish, people, food, even words. This was some pretty talented fog if you ask me.

When the mirror lit up, and someone was standing on the other side, it was not the Queen as I had expected.

"What do you want?" Curtis, Queen Gloriana's consort was the one who answered the mirror, the call? I don't know how to put it.

"Hello Curtis." I smiled at him and nodded my head. "I need to speak with Queen Gloriana."

"She's busy. What? Do you think she has the time to talk to just anyone?" His tone was much more aggressive than I had thought it would be. OK, what the hell crawled up his butt and died?

"Perhaps you do not remember me, Curtis. I am Queen Trinity, the Queen of the Shifter wolves and the magic folk."

Apparently he had forgotten who I was, and the paling in his face and eyes was enough to tell me that he hadn't expected what he had just heard. I could also see a couple bright spots blooming on his cheeks like he was very embarrassed by the fact that I had needed to remind him of whom he was talking to.

"Now, Curtis, I have something important to talk to the Queen about. Could you please ask her if she is available or let me know when a better time to call her would be?"

"I do apologize, Queen Trinity, but she just left on a trip that will take her a very long time. I can take a message and have her get back to you." He smirked like it was not something that he was sorry about at all.

"CURTIS!?" I heard a sharp voice behind him, and I saw that he flinched. He really wasn't having a good day. If he kept getting scared like that, I have a feeling he would have a heart attack. Still, this was a good, though interesting, development. I recognized that voice and I knew exactly who it was that had come in and yelled at the consort.
