After we had made all of our greetings, we were taken to a door along the side of the castle. It was just like the doors that were in the Fae castle and apparently function the sa, according to Dad.
"I did not expect to see Fae magic here."
"Fae magic?" Mom asked him. "What makes you think that this is Fae magic?"
"These doors, they are not leading to actual rooms. Instead they will lead to a magical ho like the ones back at the Fae compound."
"That they will." Gabriel smiled at his response. "Just go on inside, and it will make itself into a ho that will suit you all whenever you are here. This is your personal residence for when you are here."
"We get our own residence here?" I was a little shocked to hear that.
"There will be other tis that you are called here for visits, and we would like for you to be comfortable when you are here."
"OK." I was confused by Gabriel's wording, but I opened the door and entered the ho we had been given.
As soon as I passed through the door, I felt the magic that was in the room. And the mont we went inside, I saw that we were in a house that was like a smaller version of our pack house back ho.
As we walked through the space, I saw that there was more than enough space for us all. We took a little tour of the space with Uncle Griffin and Gabriel with us. There were twenty bedrooms and a nursery that was set up for both Brayden and Joden. There was a kitchen where we could prepare food, but we were invited to eat in the dining hall with everyone else as well. All in all, this place was perfect, and we were told that it would grow with us as we needed it to.
We didn't get to see Trinity and Reece that first night because they were busy, and there was a eting with them right after breakfast the next day. Only Artem was allowed to go to that eting though, which was a little sad for . It would be fine though since Uncle Griffin was spending ti with Doc, Leelin, Mom, Dad, , and all of the kids.
We explored the castle and talked about different things while we waited for the eting to be over. It was winter ti here, and the kids had only ever seen snow that one ti when Dad made magical snow fall for us all at ho. They were enjoying it now though, running through the garden that was in the middle of the castle behind the throne room and towers. It was really nice, and we were all enjoying our ti there.
After the group eting that Artem attended, he ca to see us with a shocked look on his face. I could tell that sothing had happened during the eting that he hadn't expected.
"Artem, what's wrong?" I asked him with a worried tone to my voice.
"Trinity said that all Alphas are now nobles." He was shocked when he heard the words. "And she is part Fae as well."
"She is?" Dad was surprised to hear that. "No wonder there is Fae magic here." He was smiling. "I wonder who her lineage cos from?"
"I guess we will find that out later." I smiled. "This is just another thing that is connecting us."
Later that afternoon, actually it was almost evening ti, we were called for the 'private' eting with the Queen. She had been having these etings with all of the nobles, but we were being called up last so that we could spend more ti with her than the others. We were also supposed to be having dinner with them in the Royal Tower. That was going to be interesting as well.
As soon as we entered Trinity's office, I saw soone I didn't expect. Apparently so did Dad because we both said the sa thing at the sa ti.
"Uncle Valerian?"
"Welco." He smiled at us.
"What are you doing here?" Dad asked him with bewildernt.
"Can't I be here with my Gariníon?" [1]
"So Star, I see that you have t my Athair mòr." [2] Trinity smiled at .
"I t him when I went to the Fae compound. He is Aunt Glory's brother."
"Yes, indeed he is our aunt's brother." I was so confused by her words right now.
"Wait a minute." I looked at Trinity with wide eyes. "Aunt Glory is your aunt as well? Does that an that we're family?"
"Yes. Valerian here is my great great great grandfather." She looked at him and smiled after she spoke.
"I found out that my son fathered a child of his own before he passed away. A son that he didn't even know about. And now, I have a family of my own." Uncle Valerian was smiling so happily. I couldn't believe my eyes; when I had t him before he had seed so angry and sad.
"I'm so happy for you guys." I could feel the love bubbling up within .
"Uncle Valerian, this is amazing. It looks like we both found our long lost family." Dad was grinning as he went to his uncle and hugged him.
We now had sothing more to talk about with Trinity and Reece. We were related, we were cousins, and that ant that our children were family as well.
"I can't believe that I have family in your pack twice over." I laughed at the craziness of it all. "Oh, doesn't this an that Acacia is related to both of us as well?" I smiled at Trinity.
"It does. And that makes one of my best friends family to because of it."
"This is amazing. So much family, so much love to go around. We should visit Acacia while we're here. She needs to et my mom since she is here now."
"Yes, I saw that. Griffin must be so happy to learn that his sister is alive. It is wonderful to et you, Vivian. I would have considered you family just because of Griffin, but you are also the mother of my cousin so that makes you even more a part of my family."
"Oh, uhm, th..th..thank you Q..Qu..Qu..Queen Trinity." Mom's nervousness caused us all to laugh.
"It's OK Mom, Trinity is a friend as well as the Queen. You don't need to be so nervous." I tried to calm her.
"No, Star, you can't be too familiar." Her face was pale, but her cheeks were bright red with embarrassnt. It was like she was scared and embarrassed at the sa ti.
"She's right, Vivian. When we're here alone like this, it's OK to treat like a friend. There is no one else around to see how we treat each other."
"O..o..oh O..OK." Mom looked even more nervous now, if that were even possible.
While we were talking and discussing what was going on, Brayden began to show just how tired he was of this situation.
"Mama play." His words cut through all of the talking that was going on around him.
"I know honey; you're bored." I took him from Artem who had been carrying him.
"I see you have two now as well. Congrats on the new little boy." Trinity got to her feet and walked toward . "Would you like to et my twins now." She smiled at . "Do you want to play with your cousins?" She reached a hand toward Brayden who grabbed onto it with a smile.
"Play."
After that, we were taken to the Royal Tower, and the main living room and sitting room combination. Trinity's mom and mother-in-law brought the twins in, and I set Brayden down. Mom also set Sage down who was able to walk now as well. The four little ones looked at each other with smiles while the very large group of us watched on. Reagan and Rika, Trinity and Reece's twins, made the first move by walking toward the others.
I was happy to see that all of the little ones were getting along. We were able to enjoy a nice evening together and talk about everything that had happened over the past year and a half since we last saw each other. Uncle Valerian was even very excited to learn about all the new nephews he had. He enjoyed talking to all of my boys from the seventeen year old, Julian, down to eight year old, Dalton.
It was such an amazing visit that I wished it could have lasted longer; however, we would be back. Artem, even though our pack was small, had been made into a High Noble because of the dedication he had shown to his people. This ant we were responsible for governing all the other wolf packs in our area and coming back to the castle every three months to deliver information and get the new royal orders. This also ant we would have plenty of opportunities to see our family, and the kids would all get to know each other. That was such an amazing thing.
After just two nights in the castle, it was ti for us to go ho. We flew back on the private plane Reece had lent to us and were back in ti to throw Brayden's first birthday party. I admit, we might have gone overboard on the party just a little bit.. Oh well, it was hard to stop Artem sotis, and I was really excited as well.
