Chapter 660 – 77- Reece – What Is Wrong With Queen Trinity? (VOLUME 4)

~~

Reece

~~

I was still waiting, not so patiently, for Trevor to bring those twins that he had been talking about. I don't know what it was that has been taking him so long, but it was starting to piss me off. I just knew that I needed to see if they could help me with my Little Bunny.

And to make matters worse, the staff was starting to inquire about when they could come back to work. I was slowly adding some of them back as Vincent and Gabriel were making sure that they would not be a potential leak about the truth of my Little Bunny's current condition.

I couldn't risk the public knowing that their queen, their goddess, had fallen into a coma and that her soul had left her body. That was not something that we could let be known because it would open the door for several enemies to make their moves as well as bring fear and sorrow to the masses. No, that wasn't an option. We needed to make sure that this was kept quiet for now.

Right now, I had permitted only two maids, two butlers, and two chefs to return to the castle. That was on top of Peter, Abigail, and Roisin. So, aside from the guards, we had nine staff members that were running the entire castle.

I know that this was leaving them all a little overwhelmed and in over their heads, but they could manage it. They were amazing people, and it wasn't like I was expecting things to be perfect for right now.

I was on my way out of my office to go for a meeting in the city. That was something that I barely did anymore, especially with my Little Bunny in the state that she was currently in. Almost as soon as I was through the door, I ran into someone that had been waiting on the other side.

"I am sorry, my King." Thoma, one of my Little Bunny's guards, was standing there with an intense look on her face. Next to her were five other guards that were usually stationed in the castle. They had not been brought back on for duty.

"What do you need, Thoma? I am in a hurry." I let her know right away that I didn't have time and just wanted her to say whatever it was that she needed to.

"Yes, King Reece, I understand that, and I am truly sorry. But w..we just wanted to know If there is something wrong with Queen Trinity."

What the fucking hell was I hearing?! How the hell did they know about this? Who had talked? Who had told them about this? Whoever it was they were going to fucking die.

"What do you know, Thoma?" I glared at her and lowered my voice. I was speaking to her as menacing as I possibly could.

"N..nothing. Nothing at all my King. I swear. We are just worried. No one has seen her in several days and we are getting worried about her. We have all seen you and the children, but Queen Trinity has been gone for quite some time now."

I was furious. I was so pissed off at her at that moment that I felt like I was going to explode. And I would have exploded onto these half a dozen guards for their stupidity and impertinence. Didn't they fucking know how to just wait for their King and Queen to tell them what the hell was going on? Stupid morons.

"Thoma, I need to speak to you, to all of you." I glared at her and then the others, it was a move that made all of them flinch away from me in fear.

"Y..yes, Sir." Thoma nodded and spoke as calmly as she could.

"Get in my office, all of you." I turned around and stalked back into the room I had just left. While doing that I pulled out my phone and started to text the board members that were back at the office. I told them that an emergency came up and I would reschedule the meeting for another time.

I wonder if these idiots realize what they just did? I mean, I wasn't worried about my company going under or anything, but I still didn't want to get a bad reputation in the business world. Damn these morons.

I sat in my chair behind the desk, but I didn't offer them anywhere to sit. They needed to answer to me, not the other way around.

"Tell me what you know, Thoma. All of it." I demanded that she explain it all right away.

"I know nothing, Sir. Of that I swear. I am just worried about her. I have been guarding Queen Trinity for years and now we have all been kept away from the castle lately. We were all just wondering if something happened."

I could tell that Thoma was regretting asking me these questions. She was just having a hard time with what was happening, just like everyone else was.

"Listen, Thoma, all of you. I want you all to hear what I am about to tell you and you need to keep it a secret." The six of them raised their heads with curious and worried eyes. "There is nothing wrong with Queen Trinity. She has just recently found out that we are expecting again and the pregnancy is already quite difficult for her. You remember when she was pregnant with the twins, right. Well let's just say that this pregnancy is a little worse than that one. It's a little more intense."

I was trying to subtly tell them that she was carrying more than two babies. That would be a secret that would not be allowed to spread. Trinity and I would spread the news when she woke up and was ready, or I would spread it myself later. Until then, this would keep everyone calmer for the time being.

"We understand, Sir. Thank you for alleviating my fears."

At least that hadn't taken long. And I should thank them. Now I could skip my meeting with the board members. That was a win for me.

I got to go back to my office and relax for the rest of the evening. I would need to reschedule the meeting and take care of it at another time, but I didn't have to do it tonight.

Another upside to that was that I got to add more details to the presentation and to memorize the facts that the new CFO wanted to talk about. It really was only a positive that I was skipping out on it today. It was in no way me just trying to run away from my responsibilities.

And if I was running away, could anyone blame me? My family was feeling like they had been destroyed. The kids were a mess, I was barely keeping it together. I didn't know how I was supposed to do all of this without the one person that was our pillar. How was I supposed to manage without my other half?

"Please, Trinity, please wake up.. Please come back to me, to us."
