Chapter 850: Chapter 35- Trinity – Where To Now (VOLUME 5)

~~

Trinity

~~

“I need to go now. I have to talk to Trinity and figure things out.” Those were the words that I heard when Reece was done with his call. I had figured that it was about the case, more murders to be exact, based on his side of the conversation that I had heard. There was talk about villages and cities and where to go next.

At first, I was a little pissed off that they had called Reece instead of me. Wasn’t I the queen? Wasn’t I the one that was in charge here? So, why then, was I not the one to be told about these things first?

I was only upset for a little bit. That was, until I looked at my phone and saw that I had never taken my phone off of silent. And I had several missed calls. There was one from Rawlynne, whom I am guessing was the person that called Reece just now. However, there were also calls from Reagan and Rika. They seemed to want to talk to me pretty bad. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had six missed calls from Rika and seven from Reagan. Oops, I guess I was the one in the wrong here. Sorry Rawlynne, I was being grumpy for no reason.

“Little Bunny, we need to talk.” Reece came over to me and whispered.

…..

“Reece, please don’t call me that while we are in other countries. I don’t need the whole world knowing what your nickname for me is.” I sighed and rolled my eyes in an overly dramatic way. Part of it was to get the frustration out, the other part was to break the tension that was around us.

I knew that the conversation that was about to follow was not going to be pleasant, but being overly tense was not going to help me at all.

“I promise not to call you that as long as you promise not to call me by any dog names.” He grinned, giving me a counteroffer.”

“Fine.” I held my hand out to him to strike the deal.”

“Good.”

Reece shook my hand to seal the deal. After that, he pulled me along behind him as he left the room that we were in. He marched me along until we got to Bevin’s office. The Alpha was, rightfully so, in his office. He was working on something but that didn’t seem to bother Reece at all.

“Bevin, I need to borrow your office. We need to talk in private and I do not know the layout of your home.” Reece just barged right into the room like he owned it. He didn’t knock or anything. He was acting like he was in charge. Well, he was, next to me that is.

“O..oh, yes. Yes, of course. I understand. Please, use the room to your convenience. I will step out and take care of some business. I uhm, I had some other things that I needed to be doing anyway.” He was being very subservient to Reece right now. I understood that Reece was the Alpha King, that meant that all of the other Alphas were to report to him and that they couldn’t disobey him at all but seeing this in action was a completely different thing altogether. It was weird seeing an Alpha take a lesser role. Even after all these years, it was something that I had never gotten used to.

Once Bevin left the office, Reece pulled me over toward the couch that was in the corner of the room. He put his hands on my shoulders and guided me to sit down, all while he was looking right into my eyes.

“I got a call from Rawlynne.” He said as soon as we were sitting.

“I gathered as much. How many were killed this time?” I didn’t act shocked. I didn’t act like I expected there to be no more deaths. I didn’t pretend like it wasn’t happening. I wasn’t na?ve or stupid. I knew what was going on in my world. I knew what was happening to my people. And I wasn’t about to expect that it was all going to end overnight. It was going to end, and hopefully soon. But it would only end when we caught the people that were responsible for this.

“There were four killed last night. Or this morning. I am not sure about the times of death.”

“Hahh.” I sighed as I thought about how many deaths there were now. With the deaths five days ago and these ones, we were up to forty-seven. And that was assuming that there were no unaccounted deaths. No vampires that just hadn’t been discovered yet.

Forty-seven lost souls. Forty-seven people that had been brutally murdered for no reason other than the fact that they were not human. So much death. So much senseless loss of life. It was sad and heartbreaking, so very heart breaking.

“Where were they, Reece? Where were they all killed?” I asked in as calm of a tone as I could manage.

“There were three from small villages in Scotland, Ireland and England. And one from the outskirts of Sydney, Australia. I spoke briefly with Rawlynne about the fact that they usually target small villages, but this is not the first time that they have hit larger cities. London and Paris were on the list as well, only that was usually when the vampires had been killed. Most likely because vampires tend to stick to large crowds so that they can blend in as much as possible.” Reece explained to me what it was that he and Rawlynne spoke about, telling me what I needed to know in the process.

I understood why Reece had been so surprised by the attack that was in the city. Outskirts or not, that one was closer to other people, and that means that it was possible that there might be more witnesses. That would most likely be the best place for us to investigate first.

“It’s late afternoon here. That means that it will be the middle of the night in Australia. I think we should pick one of the closer locations to go to right now, and then head over to Australia later tonight. It will be morning there then.” I was mentally calculating the time change between Wales and Australia. I needed to make sure that I had the difference correct. “We should leave the United Kingdom by no later than ten or eleven in the evening. We will then arrive in Sydney around seven or eight in the morning.”

“Well, that is definitely efficient. I know that we are taking a door over there. And that means that the plane still isn’t going to be used. I don’t even know why we brought it along.” Reece chuckled a little as he thought about it. “If we hurry from here, we will have a little more daylight at one of the scenes.” He was checking his watch and doing the same time calculations that I was.

“Agreed.” I stood and looked down at Reece. The only time that I was taller than him was when he was sitting down. “We need to gather the others and we need to make sure that Talia stays away from the scenes from now on. She can free the souls, but that is it.”

“Trinity” I heard what sounded like sorrow in Reece’s voice when he heard what I had to say. “You need to let Talia be part of this.”

Without pausing at all, Reece went on to explain to me that Talia needed to experience these things while we were around to comfort her. She was going to be facing it on her own soon enough, and we wouldn’t be there to hug her and make her feel better.

I knew that he was right. I knew that it was the way that things should be done. It’s just that, well, I didn’t relish the idea of exposing my daughter to this sort of thing. I didn’t want any of my kids to know what was going on around the world. I wanted them to be safe. Not just physically, but mentally as well. They needed that from me, didn’t they?

Perhaps they didn’t. Perhaps Reece was right. I should let them know what was happening and let them experience it somewhat. Not all of them though. Just Talia, Reagan and Rika. Zachary, Zander, Zayden and Zaley were all too young to know what was going on. I didn’t want to give them nightmares or anything like that. They were just babies.

“Alright, Reece. I hear you. I will let Talia be a part of it. As long as Alexio and Rudy are with her, that is. She needs them to watch over her. They will be the ones that she relies on in the underworld, they need to get used to it all now.”

“Agreed.” He stood then and smiled at me. “Now, let’s get going. Where are we going anyway?”

“Hmm. Do you fancy a trip to England?” I tried to laugh, but I couldn’t force it out. This was not a vacation. This was not fun at all. We had work to do, and I was getting serious about it.

Reece ended up calling Rawlynne and having her contact the Alpha in England for us. He sent us a picture of his office and said that he was waiting for us. I gathered everyone together and we prepared to leave, the whole large group of us. I even promised Bevin that if we needed to, we would be back to investigate more.

With that, we were off for the village of Wolfhamm in England.
