Trinity

Now that everyone seemed more comfortable, we moved on to actually discussing what I expected of my people and how I wanted everyone to work together.

I started by giving them a rundown of the new laws and expectations that were listed in the doc.u.ments that were handed to them by Gabriel. They all followed along in the blue leather bound folders that they were given while I explained line after line.

* Each member of a pack, clan or coven shall be respectful toward each other no matter their rank. No one can be persecuted or ridiculed just because they are a lower rank.

I explained to them this was because of the Hidden Moon pack in California. I explained to them briefly how all the Omega boys had been beaten and abused, many of them dying as a result, just because they were supposedly Omegas. Everyone in attendance agreed that was something that should be against the law in our new kingdom, and that the punishment for those crimes should be harsh.

"Hurting a child like that is wrong." Daciana said, as she spoke for the entire group.

* Every High n.o.ble in a given territory will help to govern the packs, clans, or covens that inhabit the lands that are near or overlap that territory. They will pa.s.s along information from the capitol, which is Trinity Falls, Colorado. The word of the Queen or King will be relayed to them, and they will be expected to follow those decrees. If a High n.o.ble is ever found to be pa.s.sing along false information to better suit their own needs, then they too will face harsh punishment.

This was also something they could all agree on. After having seen for themselves the size of the castle and the vastness of our people, they knew that every n.o.ble could not be called upon at the same time. Therefore, I needed to rely on those who would be called for the quarterly meetings. I could pa.s.s along the messages telepathically; however, I needed to delegate those types of things to my people. I needed to let them handle the work they have on their own.

* There is to be the formation of a Royal Army. The soldiers of which are to keep peace throughout the entire Kingdom. They will be trained at the castle and stationed at different locations. They will not be at the command of the n.o.bles in that territory, but the King and the Commander of the Guards. Aside from those two, they would also answer to me if the need ever arose.

Everyone agreed with this as well. They didn't think that it was right that anyone aside from the royals or the commander would direct the army. If a dispute were to arise between two groups, the guards or army would mediate it. They would guard the lands that they were sent to protect from outside threats, but they were to not take sides between two groups of supernaturals. Also, anyone from the supernatural world, even Fae and vampires, could enlist in the Royal Army.

These were the major things that I wanted them all to know and agree with. The Other things were small, and I thought they would go over easily.

- No executions without royal permission.

- No attempting to usurp another pack's territory.

- No revealing things to the humans.

- All crimes should be reported to the capitol.

There were laws that we would be able to think of and add later. For now though, this was a good place to start. And I was glad that all the members of the council seemed to be in agreement and approved of these items.

"Is there anything else that we need to discuss at this time?" I asked them as the meeting seemed to be coming to a close.

"Who is it that will be commanding and leading the Army?" Trevor asked. "Who will be responsible for training them and maintaining the order of their ranks?"

"And where will the army stay when they are here? Will they be in the castle or a separate barracks?" Landon added to the initial question.

"Hmm." I thought about this for a moment. "I would not be opposed to having Paul take on the role of the Commander, as well as the lead trainer. He has been training our new recruits for almost two years now, and we have had the best new guards and enforcers under his tutelage. He is good at strategizing even though he doesn't seem like it to most people. However, I think he will need some a.s.sistance with that as well."

I could see the look in the eyes of the two men that had brought this up. They were both strong and capable men who led their own packs; though their packs shared territory with our lands so they were close enough to us as well.

"What do you two say about being generals in the Royal Army?"

"Could we call them the knights?" Trevor grinned at me, gave me a wink, and I saw the excitement in his eyes.

"Ooh, that sounds awesome. Yes, the knights of the Royal Guard, and we will be the Generals."

"Then let it be so." I nodded at them and they high fived in victory.

"With this session of the Peace Council completed, we thank you for your a.s.sistance and time." Gabriel nodded at them all. "My Queen."

Gabriel pulled my chair back for me and then pulled Reece's back for him. After Reece took my hand, he led me from the room and guided me to the elevator so that we could go up to our home and spend time with our children. I was doing so much work lately that I found myself missing the days when we were together a lot more. I missed my hugs and kisses from my little babies. But I did like the bright smiles they gave me when I came back home after these long days.. There is nothing like the joy on a baby's face."
