Chapter 46 - Trinity- Seeing Double And What I Think Of Reece
~~
Trinity
~~
Noah visited that night. The look in his eyes told he knew what happened over the weekend, but he had no idea of anything else. He had David and another man I'd never t with him.
Noah ignored the formalities he usually tried to show at the estate, he ca right over to and wrapped his arms around tightly.
"Trin, I'm so sorry you were hurt, but I am so happy you're ok." He squeezed tight like he was trying to make sure I was real, that I was still here.
"I'm fine Noah." I soothed, hugging him back as tight as I could. At that mont I was just happy to have a mber of my family there with .
"Mom has been beside herself. Dad has been pacing nonstop. And Carter is livid. They will co here themselves if I don't let them know you're safe." He squeezed tighter still. "Nikki and I were both worried about you as well, so expect her to bombard you soti soon."
"I love you, all of you guys." I felt like crying again, but I couldn't, not with the strange man here that I didn't know.
I gently pulled away from Noah, breaking the hug that I wanted to continue.
"Who is this, Noah?" I asked him.
"Oh, yes, let introduce you." He composed himself while gesturing the n forward. "Obviously you know David already. This man here is Shane, he will be joining David and Vincent as your guards."
"Nice to et you." I greeted him. I hoped he would be better than the last ones. Jeremy didn't make feel weird like Leslie, but he seed to hate . And Leslie, well, he was nice at first but ended up creeping out.
"It's a pleasure." Shane smiled, bowing his head slightly. He looked to be about my age, and he had a kind smile on his face. He was just over six feet tall and looked like he worked out quite often. He wasn't overly handso, about average but he had so very interesting features. He had gray eyes and hair that looked to be a gray, almost silver, color. His wolf was bound to be interesting. Just then there was a knock on the door.
"Ahh, there is the other guard that will be joining you as well." Noah declared walking to the door. I watched as he went to the door and pulled it open. The man standing at the door was identical to the man standing in front of .
"Either I'm seeing double or you're twins." I said with a sarcastic tone and a grin on my face. "That or soone slipped so double mint." I cracked the bad joke and got no laughter. "Tough crowd." I mumbled, that however did get a laugh from David, Shane, and his as of yet unnad brother.
"Stick to your day job Trinity." Noah joked, laughing at .
"I don't have a day job. I'm a student, rember." I laughed. "That and I'm the Luna."
"Yeah, well, learn all you can cause you suck as a codian." Noah laughed.
"Oh, hardy-har-har, so funny. That's coming from the man with almost a negative sense of humor." My retort earned laughter from the other three n, and we all got a glare from Noah.
"That's almost too true, Trinity." David said between his fits of laughter.
"My job requires to be serious, it's not my fault." Noah snapped. I laughed at him.
"Is it always like this?" The newcor asked.
"Don't look at I just got here." Shane shook his head.
"Nope, this is a first for , but it's quite the show isn't." David answered them.
"Enough!" Noah growled. "Let us move on. Trinity, this is indeed Shane's twin brother, Shawn."
So, normal nas for this set of twins, got it. I noted to myself. Juniper had told she thought her mom was a bit of a hippie wannabe and therefore gave her and her brother hippie like nas in her opinion. I didn't think it was hippie like, just fitting for the na trends in our current world.
"Nice to et you Shawn, and I will apologize in advance if I mix you up. I'm sure you act different as you are completely different people, but until I know you well enough, I will probably mix you up a few tis." I knew it was inevitable, so I thought it best to just apologize for it now.
"No worries Luna, it happens all the ti." Shane laughed, I only know this because he was here first and was the one wearing a blue shirt. Shawn ca in wearing a red shirt.
I didn't see or talk to Reece again all week. Not until it was ti for us to go to the next set of pack introductions. I was called to his office early Saturday morning before we left. I went in, alone, and saw that he was alone as well. I was nervous, but I refused to let it show. We were still at ho, so I didn't have to pretend anything right now.
"Are you prepared to leave?" He asked as soon as the door shut, without even looking at .
"Yes." I said curtly.
"I expect you to be as convincing as you were last ti. Can you manage that?" He asked, still looking at his desk.
"I don't know, I guess that depends on you, doesn't it?"
"What's that supposed to an?" He looked confused as he finally looked up, questioning my aning.
"I'm saying it depends on if you can manage to not be an ass the entire ti. If you don't talk the way you are now. If you can behave yourself Fido, then so can I." He growled loudly as I slipped back to his favorite pet na with a grin on my face.
"Are you trying to piss off Little Bunny?" He asked, sneering at with the na he knew I hated.
"No more than you're trying to piss off, sweetheart." I countered batting my eyes and giving him an evil smile. He looked visibly more upset than he was before.
"You better get this out of your system now, because this attitude will not be allowed while we are in other territories."
"I can get it out until my heart's content, got a baseball bat?" I gave him an angelic smile.
"You really are an Evil Bunny, aren't you?"
"Only where you're concerned?" I snapped at him.
"As long as no one else in the pack, or any other pack sees this attitude I don't care. Got it, nobody outside you and I are to know how things really are between us. Is that clear?"
"Crystal. As long as you know that anyti I'm alone with you I'm going to make what I think of you be known."
"What you think of . And what exactly do you think of ?" Oh, I couldn't believe he was asking that.
"You're an egotistical, self-centered, high-handed brute with an ice-cold heart and the emotional maturity of a mayfly."
"Ouch. Don't hold back on my account, keep going." He pretended to be hurt.
"I think you believe you're more special than you are just because you're the alpha. I think you expect to fall at your feet and worship you or fawn all over you like all the pack bimbos, but that's never going to happen, and deep down that pisses you off. And you didn't get to have things go your way so now you're basically having an eternal tantrum and taking your frustrations out on . Well fine. If you get to take it out on , I'm going to take my frustrations at your attitude out on you. Just fair warning, be prepared because I am just getting ward up and things will only get worse from here on out." I ranted at him until I was out of breath. I was taking slow deep breaths to calm myself while glaring at him. He was looking at like he was bored, he didn't even have the decency to be annoyed by my rant.
"Finished yet?" He asked .
"Yeah."
"Good. We will be leaving in twenty minutes. Please do your best to convince them, the sa as last ti, I will play the part the sa as before." He seed so unfazed, what an annoying JERK!
Vincent was joining us on the trip this ti. He was trying to appear as unfazed as possible, but I know he was worried about Heather. I just hoped nothing happened during the trip, he could make it back if sothing happened to her, but then that would leave alone with Reece again.
We took an SUV, one that I had not seen when in the garage before. It was large and afforded us lots of personal space. Reece was driving again. I think he liked driving, it must be a control thing. Vincent was in the front with him, and I was in the back reading a book, glad that I didn't have to try to keep up a conversation.
