Trinity

~~

Following the marathon we had just had I was in no shape to walk, let alone move. I was actually surprised that Reece could still move. Yet he could as he picked me up and carried me to the bathroom. He apparently wanted to take a bath, since he was drawing the hot water into the tub.

Reece was always sweet like this. He took care of me in so many ways that I don't know what I would do without him. Once the tub was filled and the water was ready Reece climbed into the tub with me still in his arms.

Just like always Reece settled into the tub with me on his lap. It was a relaxing and comforting time. He washed me while I just laid back against him and relaxed.

Once we were both cleaned we just stayed there, lounging in the hot water. There was nothing else we needed to do and no one to interrupt us. It was pure bliss.

The days that followed were nothing short of perfection. We woke up when we wanted to, not needing to go anywhere or to see anyone. We made breakfast together, usually Reece only allowed me to wear an ap.r.o.n while we cooked. Other than that we were both naked the whole time.

I did wear clothes throughout the day though. I wore my sundresses outside while we were walking the beach. The whole island was only about ten acres in total size so it wasn't that hard for us to explore the whole place.

There wasn't much to it besides the beauty. There was a clumping of trees on either side of the house and a beach that went all the way around the island. The living area consisted of a large white house with a beautiful deck around back. There was a jacuzzi built into the deck that we had been using frequently. A storage building that held all the equipment that the grounds keeper used when he maintained the island. And a boat house near the water where we kept everything we needed for water sports and luxury boating. Reece had even rented a private yacht just in case I wanted to go for a day trip.

It was all just amazing.

Swimming in the ocean was something else entirely. The clear water and the colorful fish that were all around. It was just amazing.

Tonight we were having a picnic on the beach so we could watch the sunset. I wanted a quiet night where we were outside and could talk. There was a lot that we needed to talk about at some point, so why not right now?

We made a light dinner that consisted of a chicken salad, meat and vegetable kabobs, and breadsticks. We took a couple of bottles of chilled wine for Reece, some juice for me, a thin blanket, and the food. I was wearing a bikini to stay cool and because we might want to swim after the meal. Reece, likewise, was wearing a pair of swim trunks.

While we sat and slowly ate the food, watching the ocean as well as each other, we talked. I know it was bad talking about the future and serious things during our honeymoon, but right now we could do it without weighing in the opinions of others. These would be our discussions and no one else's. Sometimes having so many people around us all the time made for more burdens than anything else.

"So, Reece." I broached a topic hesitantly. "When should we go and visit the Fae Queen personally? You know she's invited us, and after helping the Hidden Paw last month I think she might be a little more interested in us."

"Yeah, I think you're right about that." Reece agreed as he took a bite of meat from his skewer. "I think we should do it before you get too far along with the babies. I don't want you traveling when you're close to the end. You know that twins can be tricky."

Reece was right about that. And after losing our first baby we were both going to be more careful this time. I was already almost two months pregnant and that was equivalent to three and a half months for a human pregnancy. I was already starting to show a little too.

"Next month then?" I asked the question while I nibbled on the end of a breadstick.

"Sounds good. I don't want you leaving the house much once you hit four months." I rolled my eyes at his words. That was going a little overboard.

"Worry not, Barksley, I won't break that easily. As long as I stick close to home everything will be fine." Reece gave me a weak glare at that. Was it because of the dog name I called him or me disagreeing with his decree? Hmm, probably a little bit of both.

"You know how dangerous it can be. I don't want you leaving the estate. You and the babies will be at risk."

"Don't worry too much, Danger Dog. I will take my entourage with me so that I am protected. You don't have to act like I am made of gla.s.s or something. I will be just fine and so will our babies."

"Speaking of the babies, where are we going to put them when they're born? I kind of want them in the room across the hall from ours."

"Hmm. I think that would be fine when they're sleeping through the night. Until then though we can put them in our room so that we can get to them easier. Or that might not be good, since you need to work. I can sleep in the nursery with them most nights."

"Like h.e.l.l you will, I want all three of you close to me. They will be sleeping in our room like you said. When they sleep through the night we can move them across the hall." Reece was cute when he was protective. I loved seeing this side of him.

"That sounds good to me. And when they're a few years old we can move them to rooms down the hall so that they can grow and become their own individual selves. I can't wait to see what they look like and who they become." I could feel the happy smile on my face. It was a smile I knew would be there a lot from now on.

"Yeah. And thanks to Dietrich we know that one is a boy and one is a girl. That means we can start planning names and picking out things like toys and-."

"Slow down, Fido. We still have plenty of time. There is no need to rush anything." I had interrupted him since he seemed to be going a mile a minute.

"I know, I know. It's just that I am excited. I wanted nothing more than to settle down and have a family with you. That dream of mine is coming true."

G.o.ddess, just to hear Reece saying this now was so different from the Reece I first met. Back then I never thought that days like this one would be possible. Back when I first met Reece things were much more difficult and I thought I would hate him forever. I am so glad that we got past all that because this life with him was the best thing I could ever hope for.

"Can we talk about names at least? Please?" He looked so cute when he begged me like that. And he wondered why I still called him dog names. It was because he looked like an adorable little puppy when he acted like this.

"Yeah, we can talk about them. I guess it's not right to call them jelly bean and gummy bear huh." I laughed as I thought about the nicknames we called the babies at the ultrasound last month.

"Good, because I have been thinking about this a lot. I have been researching and looking up baby names trying to find the best ones possible and I think I have the perfect ones."

"Alright, Benji, hit me with your best shot." I just hoped I didn't have to laugh at him choices.

"OK." I saw him grin excitedly as he got to his knees and faced me full on. "For the girl I am thinking of Rika. The name means things like peaceful ruler, honorable ruler, eternal queen. Those names would be so fitting for a daughter that inherits your t.i.tle of Luna Queen someday, don't you think."

I was honestly floored by his idea. He had put so much thought into the name that I couldn't believe it. The name was beautiful and so fitting. I loved it already. But I didn't want to agree just yet, not until I heard his other choice.

"Ok. What were you thinking for the boy?" I asked without giving him my thoughts just yet.

"For our boy I was thinking of Reagan. It means little king. I know the position of leader of the s.h.i.+fters will probably go to our daughter, but Reagan will take my position as the leader of the pack. He won't be a king technically but he will be an Alpha and a prince."

Reece had put so much thought into the names and they were perfect. How did I get so lucky? What did I do to deserve him?

"Reece." I smiled at him as I threw myself into his arms. "Those names are perfect. I love them. I think you single handedly chose our babies' names. I love you so much. Thank you for putting so much thought and effort into them."

"So you like them?" He still seemed a little weary. The adorable little fool.

"Yes, I love them. They're perfect."
