Chapter 562 - Trinity- What Happens Now (VOLUME 3)

~~

Trinity

~~

After Reece and I got ready for the day, it was time for us to head down for breakfast. I was hungry and needed to eat, but I also didn't want to wait to discuss what was important right now.

"Dietrich, Shawn, Shane, David, Vincent, can all of you please join me for breakfast in my room?" I asked them before turning to Roisin. "Can you please bring everything upstairs for us."

"Of course, my lady. I will be there soon." She bowed her head slightly and started to prepare the food to go upstairs.

The five men that I asked to join me had curious eyes but none of them looked like they were going to say no. Not that they would ever do that anyway. They all knew that I wouldn't ask this of them unless there was a reason.

All of us started up the stairs to mine and Reece's room. Our room was by far the largest in the residence and was more than big enough for what it was that we needed, but I got to thinking about something else. 'There isn't a table big enough for us to eat in there.'

Well, I guess I would need to take care of that. I was a goddess now, not to mention I was already proficient at magic before I became a goddess. I could take care of this issue with no problem at all.

All I did was imagine what it was that I wanted to be in the room before we got there. I was picturing a table where the seven of us could sit comfortably and easily. I wanted it to be good for breakfast as well as our discussions.

The moment that Reece got to the room, he opened the door for me. I stepped into the room before him and saw that the table that I had envisioned was actually there. It was a beautifully designed table with a black wrought iron frame and topped with a blue tinted glass. It was beautiful and worthy of being in a Queen's room, but it was also simple.

There were chairs that matched the table as well. Their frames were wrought iron as well, but they were covered in soft, luxurious fabric cushions. I knew without even sitting in them that they were going to be very comfortable.

"Queen Trinity." Vincent, who walked into the room behind me, hurried over to the chair that was at the head of the table and pulled it out for me.

"Thank you, Vincent. But please be your usual self, at least right now. I don't want to put on a persona right now."

"If that is what you want, Trinity, then I have no problem with it either." He smiled at me as I sat down, and he pushed the chair in for me. After that, Reece sat to my left where there was another seat ready for him. The others sat on either side of the table. Vincent was the closest to me on the right as the head of the guards.

"Trinity, to what do we owe the pleasure of a private breakfast with you this morning?" Dietrich was smiling at me from his place next to Shawn.

"I think you all know what it is that I want to talk about." I looked at each one of them in turn as I spoke.

"Yeah, I think we do." David was nodding. "You're not just Queen Trinity anymore. Now you are a Goddess, and that will most likely change a few things."

"Not to mention, we are all immortal now, or extremely long lived." Shane added. "I know that some of us were already, technically, immortal." He looked over at his twin brother and brother in-law. "But now the rest of us can enjoy that benefit as well."

"Yes, it is a benefit for all of the mixed race couples that had vastly different life spans prior to the immortality sharing. However, I don't know if everyone in our collective groups of people will want that immortality so they might come to resent me for that."

That made them all stop to think about that. They might all be happy and excited about the immortality thing, but not everyone wants to live forever. Some people get tired of life after centuries of living. I had talked about this with Dietrich once a long time ago. After he had turned Shawn into a hybrid. We had talked about his long life and what it was like to be immortal. He admitted that there were times that he wished that he had never become a vampire and that he had a human lifespan. But he also said there was much that one could do when you didn't have the time constraints of a mortal life.

"Are you worried that your people are going to revolt against you for having given them eternal life?" Dietrich was the one who asked this since he was the one among us who knew the most about the long lives of immortals.

"I think that is part of it." I said as there was a knock on the door. It seemed that Roisin was here with the food.

We put our discussion on hold while she served us our meal. I trusted Roisin, and she was a valued member of my family and inner circle, but I was just talking to the guards for right now. I still hadn't brought Gabriel in here to talk to him. I thought I would do that after the original group had their chance to speak about all of this. These men sitting before me have been there with me since the beginning. Even Dietrich felt like he had been there all along, even though I met him not long before my wedding. He was still a vital and important player in all of this.

As soon as Roisin was done and I thanked her, she left the room and the conversation continued from where it left off.

"I really don't think that your people will revolt over that, Trinity." Vincent was giving me a soft look. They will know that you truly didn't have a choice in the matter. From what you said yesterday, the Gods may have offered you the role, but I don't really think you could have refused them. That means that you didn't have any other options. And you did this to protect all of your people, not just me." It was like he was trying to say that I never should have done something so major just for him. Did he not know how important he was to me, to all of us?

"No, I most likely didn't have a choice. However, maybe there was a benefit to accepting it rather than having it forced onto me. I can't say just yet because I need to learn about it all myself as well and that will take time."

"I think that we should just keep things the way they are right now and see what needs to change as it comes up. We need to adopt a 'one day at a time' mindset for right now." Reece was looking at me with worried eyes, I know he was still wondering if I was going to stay with him. I actually think he might expect me to go live in the celestial realm.

"Reece." I took his hand and spoke softly. "I became a Goddess because the Gods were tired of living in the celestial realm. They are not going to expect me to live there. The other gods want to come here. They want to return to earth." Finally, his eyes relaxed a little, that had truly been what was bothering him.

"I think Reece is right." Vincent's voice was firm and steady. "I believe that everything should stay the same for right now. We've already got our kingdom established. Queen Gloriana can remain in charge of the Fae, and you rule your people. We can modify things over time, but for now this is what works for us."

"Yeah, I think you're right."

We discussed a few more things about everyday culture for when we got back home. I thought that would be the end of the conversation, but that was when Shane spoke up.

"Oh, yeah, Trinity, did you change our marks?" His words caught me off guard and I didn't know what to say to that.

"Huh?"

"Our marks. You know, the Goddess Guard marks. They're different. The coloring is all different."

As Shane spoke, he pulled down the collar of his shirt to show me that the mark for the Guards was indeed different. It was still shaped the same, but now it was all gray. I am guessing that it was the same color as the mark on my back. But just like Reece said there was in mine, there were thin little colored lines of blue, purple, and gold.

"I think they changed when she ascended. The coloring matches her mark." That was all that Reece said to explain it to them. After that, the conversation, and breakfast, came to an end.

I hoped that everything went as smoothly as they were thinking that it would. I didn't know what was truly going to be different about me until I made it back home, and at that point, it would be too late to strategize like this. I was nervous, scared, and excited.. I guess I truly was the kind of person that took on too much and lived an exciting life even if I didn't mean to.
