Chapter 773: Chapter 190- Trinity – Baby Shower (VOLUME 4)
~~
Trinity
~~
By the time that the middle of November came around, it was time for the baby shower. To be specific, it was Sunday November the eighteenth. Griffin and the others thought that I could literally go into labor at any time. So, that meant that they wanted to get this baby shower done as soon as possible.
This time, however, they had told me in advance. There was no ma.s.sive surprise like when I was pregnant with the twins. I was pretty sure that no one wanted to have a repeat of what happened that night. That had been the night that I ended up in the hospital and nearly gave Reece a heart attack. I was already on bed rest right now as it was, so I didn’t think that there was much that Griffin could do about my situation. Unless he put me in the hospital or something. Not that I wanted to be there. I would rather be home with the kids. However, Griffin had mentioned to me that when he felt like I was getting close to delivering, he might just admit me and keep me there until I delivered the babies. So, I knew that it was a possibility that I would spend some time there.
I wasn’t going to think about that today though. I was going to enjoy my time and have fun with my friends and family today. I was going to greet members of the pack and the two kingdoms that I hadn’t seen in a long time. I was going to enjoy myself today. I was going to have fun. And I wasn’t going to let anything stop me from doing what I wanted to do.
I was still in the wheelchair though. That was a given. I couldn’t stay off my feet if I didn’t have that. Still, I was dressed as nicely as I could be, in a circus tent. I mean, in a dress. It was a beautiful shade of baby blue, because of the baby boys that we were having. The dress was a baby doll type with elastic just below my pregnancy swollen b.r.e.a.s.t.s. Then it flared out to accommodate the very large baby belly that was housing my boys.
.....
In truth, I was happy to have the wheelchair. I wouldn’t admit that to Reece and Griffin, but it was the truth. The belly that I was carrying around was so big that I even had a hard time s.h.i.+fting in my seat. I could barely move.
It wasn’t that the belly was too heavy for me to lift. No, it was just that it was awkward to maneuver. It was protruding so much from my tiny body that I wouldn’t be surprised if it toppled me over the moment that I tried to stand up.

Well, moving on from my ma.s.sive size, I still liked the way that I looked, big belly and all. I didn’t mind it because it wasn’t just a belly, it was the place where my babies were. And with how my hair and makeup looked, and the pretty dress that I had on, I felt like a star.
Reece was escorting me down from our room with the kids walking around us. Reagan and Rika were on my right side and Talia was on my left. We were all together as a family. All eight of us. The three babies in my belly, the three babies that I already had, Reece and myself. This was the best family that I could have ever imagined. We were going to be a big family, but Reece and I had a lot of love to give, so that was fine.
Finally, the five of us reached the ballroom on the main floor of the castle. This was where the ma.s.sive party was being held. We were, of course, coming in through the back entrance so that we would be up on the stage when everyone finally saw us. I needed to say something to my people. All of them have been so worried about me and I needed to let them all know that I was OK.
The light in the ballroom was bright and there was music playing softly. It was all quite the event. I could smell the delicious foods that were offered to our guests. There was a mountain of gifts for us to sort through later. And there were so many people talking happily.
Despite all of that though, the moment that Reece pushed my wheelchair up onto the stage everyone started to clap and cheer. They were happy to see me and my family all together for the first time in months.
“It’s Queen Trinity! She’s here!”
“Queen Trinity!?”
“The G.o.ddess Queen?”
“Oh my G.o.ddess, she’s here!”
“This is wonderful, I have missed her so much.”
“And look at that, the babies are getting so big. I can’t wait for the new princes to be here.”
“This is so exciting. There are more precious royal babies coming.”
There were words coming from all over the place. They were just so excited and full of life at the very sight of me. I sometimes didn’t like the attention that I got just by being who I was. But right now, seeing how happy these people were just because I was here, that made me happy as well. It brought peace to my heart and made me feel like my life really was special.
Soon, everyone in the entire hall was looking at me. My friends, my family, and those that were not as close to me but just as special to me such as the pack members and people from my joint kingdoms. They seemed to want me to say something, and it didn’t take long for them all to start chanting at me.
“Come on, Queen Trinity! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!”
“Say something, Queen Trinity! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!”
“Give us something, Queen Trinity. We missed you! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!”
It seemed to me like they really wanted me to say something. I knew they would, but I didn’t have anything prepared in advance. I didn’t know what to tell them because it was all going to be a lie.
“Go on, Trinity. They need to hear from you.” Reece whispered in my ear as he leaned forward.
“It’s OK, Momma. We will be here with you.” Reagan offered me his support.
“Go ahead, Mom. Your people need you.”
“I know you will be just fine, Mommy. And if they get mad, just tell them that they’re lucky to have you. I know that I am.” Talia was just being so sweet.
“Alright, I will say something. But I am guessing that I need to do it while sitting down still.” I laughed and looked up at Reece in a joking manner.
“Well, I could hold you.” He winked at me.
“I’m good. Just let me move forward a little bit.” I laughed and shook my head at him and his absurd idea. Then again, I knew that he was going to say something like that anyway.
I was pushed to the front of the stage and my family stood behind me. I enhanced my voice with my magic to make sure that everyone in the ballroom would be able to hear me. Once I was ready, I knew that everyone in the room was staring at me. And I do mean everyone.
“h.e.l.lo everyone. I am so delighted that you could be here today with me and my family. I know that I have not been around much lately. I do apologize for that.” I was slowly looking over them all. I was seeing the expressions in their eyes. I could see the heartache that they had experienced over the last few months. I could sense the fear that they felt at thinking that their queen was dead. I could feel it all. And it wasn’t exactly a good feeling.
Suddenly, I didn’t want to lie to any of them. Suddenly, what felt right to me was telling them all the truth. That truth would then spread through the rest of my people by word of mouth and then soon everyone would know. I knew that it was risky telling them all what had happened, but I felt that it was the right thing to do. I felt that, even with the positive nature of this event, they needed to hear this. So, that’s what I did. I told them everything.
“I know that you all were told that I was resting because I was pregnant. And as you can clearly see, I am very pregnant. Reece, Reagan, Rika, Talia and I will soon be adding three little boys to our family. However, when I went missing from the public eye, I didn’t know about the babies. Reece found out about them soon after while I was busy traveling with them. You see, my body was here, in my home, but my soul, and the souls of my boys were not here. We had left and gone to the underworld. I was taken there to help the evil G.o.ddess, Hekate, escape from her prison cell. Only I refused to help her. Instead, I stopped her. I put an end to her reign of terror once and for all. She died. And that was what allowed me to come home. My job was done. The threat was gone. And now we can live on in peace.”
