Chapter 129 - Trinity-Who Will Walk Down The Aisle? (VOLU 2)
~~
Trinity
~~
I knew that I had to make a decision and have so important conversations. So, the next day I decided to go visit my grandfather and uncle, with Reece in tow. The benefit to having Reece there was that I didn't need to have a bodyguard with . I had called Uncle Wesley and asked him to et us at Grandfather's house then I left with Reece to et them.
Grandfather was a bit confused when he saw the two of us coming into the house together. I hadn't been to Grandfather's place in a long ti, it was a little surreal to be there again. I had so many unpleasant mories, but I also knew that what I thought before and what I knew now just didn't match up. I was still just confused about so things in general.
The four of us gathered in Grandfather's parlor, or that's what he called it, it was more of a small living room that he just kept as a sitting room. Reece and I sat on the loveseat together while Grandfather and Uncle Wesley each sat in the matching arm chairs opposite us. I was suddenly nervous and unsure of myself with the two of them looking at . I steadied myself with a deep breath.
"What's the matter?" Uncle Wesley asked.
"Is sothing wrong?" Grandfather added, the two of them looked at with worry and concern on their faces.
"Nothing is wrong. I just wanted to talk to the two of you." I smiled sheepishly, trying to ease the tension.
"About what?" They asked at nearly the sa ti. They were so much alike that it was kind of funny to see, I nearly laughed just looking at them.
"We have so good news." Reece took over for . "I've asked Trinity if she would marry in a human ceremony, and she said yes. She's made the happiest man ever." Reece smiled at them. "I would like to ask for your blessings, as the father figures in her life." I didn't expect Reece to ask them that last part.
They looked shocked at Reece's choice of words, almost as if they couldn't believe their ears. Then, for so reason, they both smiled and Uncle Wesley began laughing.
"Reece, how could we possibly say no? You're already mated. I an I appreciate the thought and all, but it's much too late for that." Grandfather started to laugh as well while Uncle Wesley spoke.
"He's right boy, I'm sure there's nothing left to get our permission for. Seeing the two of you together leaves no room for the imagination. We all know what's on both your minds." That was totally embarrassing to hear and made blush crimson. I noticed Reece's flushed cheeks and red ears that indicated he was just as embarrassed as I was. Why did this beco so mortifying all of a sudden?
After the two of them had a good laugh at our expense, we continued with what was most significant. I needed to talk to them about sothing really important to , that was why I was here after all.
"Alright, moving on please. There was sothing I wanted to ask the two of you."
"Ok, I promise, we're done." Uncle Wesley wiped a tear from his eyes while Grandfather nodded.
"I wanted to ask you sothing important."
"What?"
"Well, I was hoping that you and Grandfather would both walk down the aisle, together." I told him.
"Together?" Uncle Wesley asked.
"How?" Grandfather seed confused.
"One of you on either side of . I would like the both of you to escort . Uncle Wesley, you've been the only dad I've ever had, and the best one I could have asked for. And Grandfather, I know now that you did everything out of love for and my mother. Plus, you never got to walk your daughter down the aisle either. I love you both, and I would love it if you both would stand by my side."
I saw nearly identical looks of surprise and happiness on their faces. I could tell that they were both happy that I wanted them to walk with . They loved , maybe they had different ways of showing it when I was growing up but that didn't diminish the love they both had for .
"I'd be honored." Uncle Wesley smiled proudly.
"Are you sure that you want to? I haven't been the easiest person for you to get along with." Grandfather looked uncertain for a mont, despite his obvious happiness.
"I'm sure, I love you both just like you both love ." I smiled at him trying to reassure him.
It was a very heartfelt conversation and a day full of expressing my love for my family. Everything that had happened to lately had made understand all the small things that I never noticed or understood before. I knew how much my family loved and cared about now. I would never let that slip my mind again.
With that visit done, I only had one more person I needed to tell right away. I didn't know when Carter would be ho, so I decided I would video call him the sa way I did Emmalee. Reece decided that he wanted to be part of that call as well. So we were together when I called him.
Carter answered the call right away. He looked like he was in a hotel based on the background. I never knew where Carter went on his missions, most of them had to be kept a secret, even from . Maybe now that things had progressed for Reece and , I might be given access to that kind of information.
"Hey Trinity, what's up." Carter greeted , he always seed so cheerful when I talked to him.
"How've you been Carter? Are you taking care of yourself?"
"Hmph." He seed to scoff at . "I can always take care of myself, it's you I've got to worry about."
"Rude." I sarcastically snapped at him.
"So what's up? You never call when I'm out like this."
"Well, I wanted to tell you sothing." I smiled at him. "There's going to be a wedding next month."
"No shit. Really?" He seed skeptical for a mont. "I'm happy for you cuz, I know that you must be super excited." He seed to be happy for , but I could see a hint of sadness in his eyes. He was still upset about missing out on his mate. I really hoped I could fix that for him so day.
"I want you to be there. Will you be ho?" I was trying to show him how much I care for him, but I knew he was suffering still.
"Yeah, I will be there. Nothing could keep away." I smiled at his words.
"Hey, Carter, I got sothing else to ask you." Reece butted in.
"Hey Alpha. what do you need?" Carter spoke in a more professional tone of voice when he addressed Reece, as if he were discussing business.
"No reason to be so formal man, I wanted to ask you sothing personal." Reece was smiling. Carter looked confused. "I want you to be one of my groomsn." Reece got right to the point.
"Seriously?"Carter laughed as he spoke. "If you're asking dude, you must not have many friends." Carter joked which made Reece growl slightly. "I'm ssing with you man. Of course I will, it's Trinity's big day after all, I wouldn't miss the opportunity to be part of it."
"Good to hear." Reece smiled but still looked a little unhappy. I was just glad that all of my family seed happy for , it really made it easier for to be so happy.
Reece pushed the lid of my computer shut and slid it away. He then wrapped his arms around and kissed my neck. The days worth of growth on his face scratching at mixed with his breath near my ear made shiver in his arms.
"Hmmm, I love it when you squirm against like that." He purred into my ear which caused to shiver again. "I think it's about ti we celebrate our engagent." His suggestive words lit a fire inside .
"Didn't we already do that?" I asked him in a weak voice.
"You can never celebrate this kind of thing too much." He trailed a line of kisses up my neck, across my jaw, and to my lips as he spoke.
When his mouth settled onto mine it was like returning ho after a long ti away. It felt so right and so very intense. His tongue was exploring the inside of my mouth like undiscovered land, like he hadn't mapped the entire territory already. I felt my body getting hotter and my desire for him growing. There's no denying where this was heading.
That is, until there was a loud banging on the door leading to my room. I was so focused on Reece, I hadn't even noticed Noah's scent coming down the hallway.
"Go away." Reece growled at him, barely pulling his mouth away from mine before speaking.
"Reece, we have a problem." Noah called through the door.
"This had better be worth my ti." Reece snarled as he got up and stomped toward the door. "I'll be back soon, why don't you take a nice relaxing bath." He turned back toward , smiling wickedly before he walked out the door and out of the room. That was disappointing.
