Reece

I spent the night with my Little Bunny at the observatory that I had had made for last night. That date had been long overdue and very much needed. I think that my adorably sweet little mate will feel a little better now that we"ve taken care of some of the stress and tension. I have been so worried about her lately. I just wanted her to be happy, healthy, and safe.


All this work that she"s been doing wasn"t very good for her. That was why I wanted to get her out and away for a night. And I just used my birthday as an excuse for it. I just wanted my Little Bunny to be able to calm down a little.


Things seemed to have worked out the way that I wanted them to. Little Bunny seemed to be smiling more and looked a little less stressed than she used to. That alone made me smile when I saw her.


A few days after our date, well closer to a week really, it was Talia"s birthday. She was turning four now and I was so excited for her. OK, maybe it was because I loved parties and I got to go overboard for my kids without having to worry about s.p.a.ce or weather restrictions.


Talia loved all things to do with princesses, so that was the theme that we went with. I don"t know if that was funny or not since she was indeed a real life princess. Maybe it was just ironic or something. I don"t know, but I still thought it was cute.


So, what better thing could the princess loving real princess have for her birthday than a real life king there to escort her. I decided to wear my crown and dress a little more "regal" than I usually did. I went to my little girl"s door and offered to escort her down to breakfast for her big day. When she opened the door I saw that she was dressed perfectly, thanks to the help of her attendant who put her in the princess dress and did her hair for her.


"No, Daddy, that"s OK." She was shaking her little head at me. "I am a princess, I am supposed to have a prince to escort me."


"Oh, so is Reagan taking you to breakfast?" I smiled at her, a little hurt but not letting it show.


"No, I am having Levi and Luka take me." She giggled and at almost that exact moment, I heard the sound of two sets of small feet coming toward me.


"h.e.l.lo, Uncle Reece." Luka said with a smile. "How are you today?"


"Hi, Uncle Reece. We"re here to be the princes for Talia today." Levi beamed at me with a wide smile that made me have nightmares about the future. These boys were already stealing my little girl away from me.


"T..Talia, are you sure you don"t want Daddy to take you?" I couldn"t let my princess be taken from me already.


"No, I am fine Daddy. Like I said, I need a prince. But Uncle Dietrich and Uncle Shawn should be here with Lexi and Lyssa, you can go spend some time with them."


At that, Talia left her room and took Levi"s left hand and Luka"s right. I think I just felt my heart shatter into a thousand little pieces.


"Talia?" I called after her softly as she walked away.


"I"ll see you at breakfast, Daddy." She looked over her shoulder and smiled at me.


"Sweety?"


Well, I wasn"t needed as a king anymore, so I went back to my room and got dressed into my normal clothes. Not to mention, I put away my crown. I wasn"t needed. That hurt so much more than I thought it would. I wasn"t my little girl"s first choice.


I tried not to let it bother me as I went down for the rest of the party. I kept a smile on my face during breakfast. Shawn, Dietrich, and the girls were indeed there and joined us. And slowly throughout the day everyone else started to show up until there were over a hundred "close" friends and family at the party, that"s counting adults and kids though.


There was a tea party as part of the birthday celebration, even the boys were partic.i.p.ating. I mean, how could we all not partic.i.p.ate, it was requested by a princess after all.


There were a lot of different parts to the party, but it was all super girly and princess themed. The mini cakes were eaten after the little activities. There was a big cake as well, since Talia needed to blow out her candles.


Presents were opened after that. Talia had a lot from those that were gathered. She went straight to the things that Trinity and I had gotten her. There was a large princess castle playset that was going to go into her room. Lots of new princess dolls and toys came after that. There was even that princess carriage-ride on toy, an updated version since it had been so long. Rika never wanted one but Talia does.


After our gifts, which Talia absolutely loved, which made me so proud, she went to Shawn and Dietrich"s gifts. There were even small gifts from the kids that they picked out for her. I was still feeling really good until she opened the one that Levi and Luka got for her. There was an adorable little necklace, obviously made of gold and emblazoned with diamonds. The necklace had the word "princess" written on it in a fancy script.


"See, Talia. It says princess." Levi told her as he pointed to the letters.


"Since you"re a princess and all, it suits you."


"Thank you so much." She hugged the two of them. "It"s my favorite present so far.


That"s it, I was sinking. I was losing my fight for survival. I was no longer Talia"s favorite. She was being taken away from me. Time was a cruel enemy. Come on, though, she"s only four. Can"t I have a little more time before a boy comes along and steals her heart from me? Can"t she be daddy"s little girl for a little while longer?


Aside from the devastating gift giving, I think that it was all going pretty well. Or so I thought.


I happened to look over at my wife, quite a bit, throughout the day. When the party first started and we were greeting everyone, she was smiling and happy. But as the day went on, I saw that she was looking tired, stressed, and slightly afraid. What was going on with her?


I wanted to know what was happening. I wanted to know why she was so scared and stressed out lately. Even when she was with family. Even when she was at a birthday party. Why was this happening to her? What could I do to fix it? How could I make it all better?


I was at a loss. I didn"t know how to fix this. I didn"t know how to make things better for my mate.. I didn"t know how I could be a proper Alpha, mate, or husband. What kind of man was I if I couldn"t help my own wife?
