Chapter 759: Chapter 176- Trinity – Spending Time With Friends And Family Part 5 (VOLUME 4)
~~
Trinity
~~
Sure enough, not even five minutes after Vincent and the others left the room, I could hear more footsteps coming up the stairs. This was a smaller group than the last one but not the smallest group of them all. That would be impossible, considering that Juniper came up here alone. You can’t get a group with less than one person in it. Not unless you had fractions of a person, and I didn’t want to kill the people that I loved.
Anyway, the third group came into the room in a rush. Four people this time. Aunt Glory, Athair mòr, Trevor and Daciana. The four of them were all sights for sore eyes. Yes, I had seen Trevor last night when I woke up, but I hadn’t gotten to talk to him all that much. And of course, I had seen Athair mòr as well. He was with Reece, Trevor and Noah in the room when I woke up.
You know, now that I thought about it, I hadn’t seen Rudy and Alexio yet today. Nor Angel, the little dragixie. I wonder where they all were. And I hoped that they were all settling in well enough. Being in this world, needing food, sleep, and other basic needs to be met, it must all be very different to them. I know that it could be very disconcerting to shift from one world to the next. And I didn’t want them to feel overwhelmed.
I wasn’t able to think about them for long though. It was hard to think of anything other than Aunt Glory as she hugged me tightly with her tiny arms around my neck. And I have to say that this had to have been the most awkward hug that I had ever had. Aunt Glory was pregnant with twins while I was pregnant with triplets. We were both very big already and it was hard to get a comfortable way for us to fit together for a hug. It was kind of funny, if you think about it. And with the way that Athair mòr and Trevor were laughing at us, I could imagine it wasn’t just me that thought it was funny looking.
.....
“Trinity! Don’t you ever do that again! When Reece called to tell me what happened I thought that I was going to die! My heart was pounding so hard. You have no idea how scared that I was for you. And then I couldn’t find a way to help you. I was so upset.”
“Shh. Calm down, my love, she is awake now. And we still managed to get her some help. It’s fine.” Trevor was doing his best to calm Aunt Glory down.
“I was useless in helping her. What good is being so old if I don’t even know how I can help someone. You were the one that helped her, Trevor. You and those amazing twins from your pack.”
“It was just luck, Glory, don’t worry. You need to calm down and sit down. At this rate, you and Trinity are either going to crush each other with your bellies or go into labor. Just calm down.” Trevor managed to get her to sit down, but she was still very close to me.
“Here, Trinity, I brought you these.” Daciana handed me one of the bottles of water that was still partially frozen and set the other fully frozen one on the nightstand.
“How did you freeze them so well?” I asked her with awe.
“I might have helped a little.” Athair mòr leaned in and kissed my temple. “I wanted to make sure you had just what you asked for.”
“Thank you so much.” I smiled at him. “But, uhm, did any of you happen to bring me a-.”
“A straw?” Athair mòr smiled at me and pulled one from the inside pocket of his jacket. “I have it right here. I figured that you were going to need it.” He dropped the straw into the water and set the bottle on the tray in front of me. “Still having trouble moving?” He asked me with concern in his voice.
“Yes, but it’s getting better all the time. Griffin is helping me with his magic and physical therapy. And every time that I eat it seems to help me as well. It’s like my body is still starving, even though I had a feeding tube. Then again, that isn’t eating, that is just getting nutrients. As a shifter, that isn’t enough is it.”
“Not by a long shot.” Trevor spoke vehemently. I guess he didn’t like the idea of a feeding tube. I can’t say I blamed him though. It really was weird waking up with one in me.
“So, Trevor, how did you know that those twins would be able to help me?” I needed to get the conversation moving onto something else.
“Well, to be honest, I didn’t know for certain that they would be able to help you. I hoped that they would, which was why I came to Reece with the idea. But, you see, the twins that I brought here have always been able to see the dead. They were known for seeing ghosts. And I explained to Reece that ghosts are just the souls of people that have died. So, in truth, they were just seeing souls. You were lost in the underworld without your soul. We knew that your soul was missing from your body because of Dietrich. That had been a big help for us to know where to look. And when I heard about what those twins were capable of doing, I didn’t hesitate to offer their help to Reece.”
“I am glad that you did. And it looks like they were able to help quite a bit.” I smiled at them all. “If it wasn’t for everyone keeping the faith and doing what they could, I might not have been able to get out of that place.”
“Nah, Trinity, that was your little girl, Talia. She is quite amazing. You have to see what she is capable of. And you know something, she blessed those twins. They used to be stuck in a permanent half bear-half human state. But Talia used this little pink light and suddenly, they were fully human. They can now become human, bear or that halfway point. And it was all thanks to that daughter of yours.”
I knew about all of this already. Reece had told me. Still, hearing about it all again was making me feel both proud and scared. There was so much that I needed to think about, so much that I needed to process. Not to mention, I needed to talk to Talia one on one. I needed to hear from her what she was able to do. I needed to know what she was able to understand and comprehend about it all.
I think that tonight, after the kids get home from school, I am going to meet with them all, one on one. They need some time alone with their mommy, as well and me talking with Talia. There was just so much that I needed to figure out.
“I can see you have a lot to think about, Trinity. We will head out for now.” Athair mòr leaned in for another kiss on my temple. “Rest up and get better. You need to come see the kids, and it won’t be long before you, Glory and Daciana’s deliver. You need to see our little boy as well as Glory’s twins. Oh, and spoiler alert, we all get to see what Trevor is like with a daughter, or should I say two of them.” Athair mòr laughed then and laughed at his brother in-law. “I am really happy that you are back, Trinity. We all missed you so much.”
“I know, Athair mòr. And I love you, all of you.”
They left me then, giving me time to think. Only I didn’t get that time. I thought for sure I would end up being alone for a little bit while I drank my water. However, two eager visitors came to see me then. These weren’t just ‘visitors’ though. They had another reason to be here for me.
“Queen Trinity!” The two of them called together as they rushed to the bed.
“I am so happy to see you awake, my Queen.” Gabriel bowed to me, and I could hear the relief in his voice.
“My Queen, I have been so worried about you.” Roisin matched him. “I have been waiting for the day that I would be able to care for you once again.”
“Well, I am awake now. And I see that the two of you are ready to get back to work.” I smiled at them. “And please get up. You know that I dislike the bowing.” I laughed at their enthusiasm. This was something that the two of them have always had in common.
“Yes, Queen Trinity.” Gabriel answered as they rose.
“I hope the two of you used this time off lately to spend it with your little one.” I was happy to see these two. They were a sight for sore eyes, they really were.
“Actually, we did.” I watched Gabriel look at Roisin as he said that. “W..we’re having another baby. We’re due in March.”
“That is wonderful news. I am so happy for you. Congratulations.” It truly was wonderful. And it made me think about something. When one person gets pregnant around here, it tends to be contagious. That was kind of funny to think about. And what was more important was that there were going to be a lot more beautiful babies around very soon. I was so happy.
