Trinity

~~

The kids were not going to school today. In fact, as the people that own and technically run the school, Reece and I had told them that it should be cancelled today, so that the kids and their families would be safe no matter what happened. So, there was no school today.

Reagan and Rika had already finished the semester, so they weren’t skipping classes, which made today easier. Not that I wasn’t completely sure that they would have skipped classes to be here with Reece and I today. Still, it was best that they weren’t missing school either.

Talia, Zachary, Zander, Zayden and Zaley were all going to the Black Canyons with my parents, Reece’s mom, and my grandfather. They were going to protect the kids there while we were busy with the revelation to the world. This was going to be a tense morning, with a lot of possible outcomes. The less that we had to worry about the other kids, the better. And of course, Reagan and Rika were coming with us to the venue to be a part of the reveal.

As much as I had not wanted them to be a part of this entire situation, they were right when they made their arguments to us about it. They are adults, and we need to start learning to trust them and their choices. We have done our best to raise them into the people that they are, and now all we can do is hope that they are as amazing as we think that they are. That wasn’t a problem though, because I knew that they were far better than I even imagined them to be.

We ate breakfast together as a family, needing that family time as Reece had said last night. Our parents, all the guards, and everyone that was close to us had joined us as well. Everyone that was present was either family by blood or marriage, or someone that we considered family because we had been through so much together.

There was some tension during the meal, others were as stressed and worried today as Reece had been last night. The kids were able to sense this though, and they helped them through it. I don’t think that I have seen the quads give out so many hugs since they were four years old. And as the hugging started, the other kids, especially the younger ones, started to follow suit.

…..

The quads were far from the only kids that were that age in this giant gathered family of ours. There was also my little sister Olivia and Reece’s sister Ivy. The youngest two that Shawn and Dietrich had adopted, Bret and Ember. Riley and Katie’s second little boy and youngest child, Dillon. Juniper and Paul’s youngest, Willow. Cedar and Acacia’s last set of twins, Rosewood and Redwood. Noah and Nikki’s youngest and only girl, Nina. Carter and Emmalee’s only little girl, Leeah. Jackson and Melita’s son, Jason. And Gabriel and Roisin’s son Shamrock. They were all here with us, because their families were all part of our massive brood. I loved all of these kids so much, and I was glad that they were all there with our kids so that they wouldn’t be alone in these uncertain times to come.

After we all ate together, finishing the giant meal as a giant family, all those that weren’t going to be with us for the reveal took a door from the living room of our family tower to the canyons. I was counting on them all to protect our families and make sure that they would come back to us soon.

Preparations were already complete. We had done this in advance and were ready for the moment that we needed to head to the venue. And where were we holding this giant press meeting that would be revealing the truth to the world? Well, that would be in the large indoor stadium that was built about five years ago. This stadium was often used for large scale events and concerts when not used for sports. That made it perfect for us right about now. Not only that, but there was already room for the press to set up.

There were some people that were invited to witness all of this in person, some humans and some not. Actually, it was more nonhumans than humans. We wanted to make sure that there was not much of a reaction coming from the crowd. At least, not much of a negative one that is. We wanted to control this outcome. Yes, I know that this was not fair practice, but could anyone blame me? We had to help control the outcome here.

Reece, Reagan, Rika, Shawn, Dietrich, Shane, David, Rawlynne, Jake, Gabriel, Athair mòr, Aunt Glory, Trevor, and several others from our inner group were a part of the process that we were about to go through, they were there with us, as so were a lot of other people. Analise and Reef Rivers, Leelin, Crawford and Eldrige, Landon, Riley, and all the others from the other countries that were here to assist us, they were all here and preparing for where they needed to be when all of this started soon.

The press was arriving from all over the city and the country. There were international agencies here as well. We had insisted that all the leaders of those nations send some of their own people here to get the scoop for their news outlets. And, thankfully, they had complied. There was more media than anything else in this stadium at the moment, but that was how we wanted it. We needed all mediums to be covered here. We needed to make sure that the world knew the truth. All of the truth.

As I stood there with Reece, talking about the process that we were going to do this all in, I noticed a woman that was looking at me. She was the same reporter from the end of the Jaegan case. The one that had all those questions about how things didn’t add up. Of course, she would want to be here. This was orchestrated by Reece and I, so there was no chance in hell that she would miss out on all of this. Not when she would get the chance to prove herself right.

When the reporter noticed that I saw her, she smiled and started to saunter over toward me. She had a look on her face that was like she was about to nail me to a wall. She thought that she was going to get some scoop on me that the others weren’t about to get. I knew that she was also going to be one of the ones that tried to spin this in a negative way, and that was bound to happen no matter what. Still, we needed to have a lot of media coverage, put the truth out there, and keep reiterating that truth regularly.

“Hello Mrs. Gray, and you as well Mr. Gray.” The reporter smirked at us knowingly. “I just had to make sure that I was sent here for this big scoop of yours. You are planning something big today, aren’t you?”

“Yes, we are.” I gave her a smile and a nod. “I am sorry, but I do not remember your name.”

“My name is Lara Timmons, we spoke before after that hearing a few months ago.”

“Yes, I remembered the circumstances, just not your name. It is nice to meet you, Lara. I am happy that you are able to be here. Please make sure that you get all the information that you can, and share it as honestly as you can. I do so hate the reporters that twist words into something that isn’t true.”

“I would never do something like that, Mrs. Gray. I might be ruthless, but I will never print a lie. I only get to the heart of the truth, no matter what it is.”

“That is good to know. We will be speaking nothing but the truth here today, and I would like to make sure that the world knows what we have to say.”

“Then I guess that we are in agreement, aren’t we, Mrs. Gray? I look forward to whatever it is that you have to show us. I think that this might be an interesting press conference.”

“And why is that, Lara? I am just curious as to why you would think that it would be so riveting? Not that I am not going to try and make it as entertaining as possible, while still showing you all the truth and nothing but the truth.”

“Well, think about it Mrs. Gray. You and your husband have never once done something like this before. You are world famous billionaires, but you are closed off and reclusive. You only hold conferences for things that have to do with your business, but this isn’t one of those times, is it? I mean, I looked into this and there is no mention whatsoever of Alpha Corp. in the documents that have to do with this press conference. And that leads me to think that this entire thing is going to be personal. And what is it that could be so personal that you need to share it with us like this?” She turned to the side then, looking at the people that were gathered around me.

I knew that she could see all of my guards and friends, but she was also able to see Reagan and Rika. She was watching them for a moment, or it seemed like she was looking right at them before she turned back to face me.

“I see that you have your children here. Two of them anyway. You have seven children in all, correct? And yet you don’t look old enough to even have one. I wish I knew your secret.” She grinned knowingly at me. “I mean you two are both so eternal. It’s almost as if you don’t age at all.” A wink in her left eye, showing me that she was already listening to the rumors about us. Although, it was clear that she didn’t expect that she was already hinting really close to the topic of discussion for this meeting. I knew that if I didn’t say something to her soon, then this reporter, Lara, would continue to just drone on and on.

“Well Lara, you are right about one thing. We are not including the company in this matter today, because it has nothing to do with the business that Reece and I own and operate. However, it is not just a private matter. This is something that affects a lot of people, and we need to talk about it with the entire world. And thank you, by the way, that is some flattery that you are showing me. I know that you are well aware of how old I am, so to be told that I am still so young, that is an amazing feeling.”

“You didn’t address the children.” She motioned with her chin as she looked over at them behind us. She was gently reminding me of the one topic that she mentioned that I had intentionally avoided.

“Yes, you are right about that.” I nodded with a smile firmly in place. “But they are my children and therefore not a topic that I will discuss with just anyone. I hope that you will understand that.” I gave her a bit of a verbal push, keeping her away from topics that I didn’t want to get into at the moment. However, she just gave me a venomous smile and narrowed her eyes at me.

“I will learn what you are truly hiding later, Mrs. Gray. You can be certain of that.”

“I have no doubt that you will, Lara. However, it won’t be right now. If you’ll excuse me, I need to get back to work. We are starting soon.
