Chapter 798: Chapter 215- Trinity – Visits Part 2 (VOLUME 4)
~~
Trinity
~~
Reece and I were eating lunch when we heard a knock on the door. Zaley was sound asleep while the boys were with the doctor getting an examination done. Reece and I knew that more people would be coming soon, but I had hoped that we would have had time to eat first.
“Come in.” I called out to them all. I could already tell who was here, I could smell them outside of the room.
A moment or two after I called out to them, Shawn, Shane, Dietrich, David, Vincent, Rudy, and Alexio came into the room. The latter two of the group had been hanging out with the rest of my guards since they had come to live in this realm. They were guards in the underworld, so they just naturally got along with my guards. I could only hope, though, that they weren’t learning how to live in this world from Shane.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
Don’t get me wrong, I love Shane. He is an amazing guard and a wonderful friend. He was like family to me and had been with me for almost ten years now. However, none of that negated the fact that he was pretty much the most obnoxious person that was in our inner circle. He was a good man though, that wasn’t the issue. He was just not the type of person that you wanted teaching someone else how to be normal.
.....
“Hey, Trinity!” Vincent, the first through the door, came rushing over to me. He was the one that I had been the closest to out of them all. He had always acted like I was his little sister that he needed to protect, and I knew that wasn’t likely to change. They were all like my brothers. Well, maybe not Rudy and Alexio. They were too new to the group, but as time went on, who knew how things were going to go.
“Hi, Vincent.” I smiled as he leaned in and hugged me. Thankfully, Reece never really got jealous over this anymore. It happened all the time, so he and I were both more than used to it.
“I am so happy for you. And surprised as well. Who would have guessed that there was a hidden baby girl in there?” He was laughing when he pulled away. That was when I saw Dietrich was standing right behind him, ready for his hug next.
“Who would have thought about it, he asks. Who? I think my Geliebte and I both said as much to you when you came back from the Underworld.” Dietrich was leaning in and wrapping his arms tightly around my shoulders. He, too, was a good friend and I was happy that he was here in my life.
“Yes, I believe that you did. However, everyone had thought that there were only three babies, and Hekate’s soul did go into the triplets. So, I didn’t think that it was possible. I guess I should have listened to you, Dietrich. You were right.” I made sure that I squeezed him back as he hugged me.
“It’s fine, Trinity. Dietrich and I just accepted your words as fact and stopped thinking that there was a possible fourth baby.” Shawn leaned in and hugged me next. “Though I will let you know that he did a victory dance when we got the message this morning. He was dancing all over the place saying ‘I knew it, I knew it’, it was quite funny really.”
“Shawn!” Dietrich grinned with slight embarrassment as he called out to his husband. “You give away my secrets.”
“That was no secret, my love. It was just me showing how funny you can be.” The two of them walked away and David walked over next.
“Congratulations, Trinity. I am so happy for you. All of the babies looked beautiful. And I am glad that they are all doing well.” After he hugged me as well, he went to stand near the bassinet and looked at Zaley as she slept.
“My turn.” Shane grinned as he came in for the hug. “I am happy for you, Trinity. I really am. Though I feel bad for Reece.” He was grinning when he pulled back.
“Why?” Reece looked at him with suspicion in his eyes.
“Because, you can guess that she won’t want you to come within five feet of her for like fifty years after that. She won’t want to risk having five, six, eight, or even ten babies next. You and your litters.” Shane was laughing at his joke.
“Hey, the boys were identical. That means it has nothing to do with me.” Reece got defensive when he heard Shane’s joking.
“Well, Reece, it could have been you. I don’t know whose side of the family caused the identical triplets. The two eggs though, that is my fault.” I threw him a line and let him know that I was taking the blame here. “So, I guess it’s me that wants the litters.” I laughed for a moment and then went on. “Though, Shane is partially right. I don’t want more kids right now. I want to just enjoy the seven that we have. They need our attention right now.” I wouldn’t lie about it or deny it. It was the way that I felt right now. I wasn’t going to hide the truth at all.
“I know, Little Bunny. I know.” Reece smiled at me and understood what it was that I wanted. It was time for us to focus on our family, to be here with them more than we had ever been before.
“Queen Trinity, I was so happy to hear that your babies were born healthy. I missed the little boys from the Underworld. And I was surprised to hear that there was another baby. She was not with you then, so that was quite the unique situation.” Rudy, ever evolving into a better man, came up to me then. He didn’t hug me, but he let me know that he was there for me just the same.
“Congratulations to you, Queen Trinity.” Alexio bowed his head and did the same as Rudy had done. He had started to address me by my title after coming to live here in our world. I had gotten used to these men being around and acclimating themselves into my life. They weren’t here for me, though. It had been decided that they were to be trained to be Talia’s guards. Since she would one day live in the underworld, it would be best if some of her guards and retainers had once lived there as well. They would aid her a lot in her transition into the world.
“Thank you, Alexio, and thank you Rudy. Thank you for coming to visit me.” They were both still getting used to things and were therefore still awkward.
“I wouldn’t miss it for anything. Plus, the others were coming already, so Alexio and I decided to join them.”
“Yeah, they follow us everywhere. It’s like they’re lost little puppies or something.” Shane laughed goodnaturedly.
“We are simply trying to acclimate ourselves to a world that is completely new to us, Shane. That does not make us puppies. And it in no way means that I like you at all.” Alexio, clearly flustered by the comment made by Shane, snapped at him in his anger.
“Oh, calm down demon boy. You just need to find yourself a girl and get laid.”
“I have told you time and again, Shane, I do not believe that my species and your species are at all compatible in that way. I..I would not feel right making a woman go through that. If she were to develop feelings for someone like me, then she might forever be disappointed.” I saw what looked like sadness in Alexio’s eyes. Was that what this was about? He was lonely and just wanted to find someone of his own. Well, I guess he and Rudy had been working in the underworld for a long time. They deserved to find love.
“Worry not, Alexio, I am sure that you will find love soon enough. You and Rudy both.” That made the both of them look at me. Alexio with eyes that said he was distrustful of it, and Rudy with eyes that were filled with excitement. “It might not happen right away, but I don’t see anything that would keep the two of you from finding love with someone. Just wait, your mate is out there somewhere.”
“Yeah, don’t worry about it you two. If there is one thing that Trinity knows, it’s that everyone has a mate somewhere.” Vincent was trying to help me reassure them as I told them that they had nothing to worry about.
“Yeah, everyone finds love around Trinity. There is never a need to worry about whether or not you will find your perfect someone. Just stay close to her and you will get your happiness.” Reece was also jumping on the make the demons feel better bandwagon. Well, I was glad that he seemed to care about them as well. It would make things a lot easier in the future if we all got along.
“I will take your word for that, Queen Trinity.” Alexio nodded his head in agreement. I had a feeling that was all that I was going to get from him. Sometime really soon, I was going to need to get him to relax and open up to us. He was friendly enough, but he was also so closed off. He would do so much better if he was more friendly with at least one person.
