Chapter 560: Reece – Holding Onto My Little Bunny Part 2 (VOLUME 3)

Reece

"They're gone, Reece. They're all gone." She was still crying, pressing her face against my chest.

"You're still you, even without the marks." I didn't know what else to say.

"That's not the point." She shook her head and finally lifted her head again. "The marks being gone mean that Nehalennia, Thoth, and Danu are really gone."

"But you already knew that they were gone." I was confused.

"I know. I know that I knew it because I was there when their power became mine, but that didn't mean that I didn't hold out hope that there would still be some sort of evidence of them still with me. I hoped that their marks would still be there, on my body, to prove that they were always with me."

I think I am starting to get it now. She was afraid that they would never be there for her again.

"They are part of you now, Little Bunny, they will always be there to help you when you need it because they are you."

"I know, Reece, I know." She was still crying. There was just no stopping it right now.

Not knowing what else to do, I took off the rest of her clothes as well as my own. Once we were both naked, I held her against my body and carried her over to the tub. It was ready for us now, so I stepped into it and shut the water off.

I sat in the water and cradled my Little Bunny against me again. I didn't want to let her go. I didn't want to stop touching her. I needed this closeness with her. I needed to know that she was with me always and forever.

Neither of us moved for a while, and neither of us talked for even longer. Without breaking the silence in the room, I had eventually started to clean her up a little bit, but I was more worried with just keeping her comfortable than anything else.

After a long time had passed, I decided that I needed to be the one to speak first. I could tell that my Little Bunny just wasn't going to be the first one to say anything, not this time anyway.

"Trinity?"

"Yes, Reece?" Her voice was so quiet that I barely heard it, at least she answered, though.

"Are you alright?" Above all else, even above wanting to make sure that we were going to be always together, that's what I needed to know first.

"I don't know." That wasn't very comforting.

"Will you talk to me? Please? Just tell me what is bothering you." I didn't want her to know that I was worrying so much, I just wanted her to think that I cared about her and that was all.

"I don't think I really know who I am anymore, Reece. I don't know what to do now." That was sad to hear. I didn't like hearing how heartbroken she was.

"You're Trinity Gray. You're my wife. You're my mate. You're the Queen of the shifters and the magic users. That is who you are."

"Except, now I am the Goddess of the Fae, the shifters, and the magic users. So, what does that really make me?"

"You will still be the same person, Trinity. Nothing will change that."

"Won't you get sick and tired of all the things that have been happening to me? Won't you want to leave me because you can't take all the changes that have been happening?"

"Trinity?" I spun her around on my lap so fast that her head lolled around oddly. I didn't care though, I needed to see her face, to see her eyes, so I could try to figure out what was going on in that head of hers. "What the hell makes you think that I will EVER leave you?"

"I am such an anomaly. I have caused nothing but stress and heartache for you." She was crying. Openly crying with tears coming down her cheeks and her lip tremble, all of it.

"I won't leave you, Trinity. I have been sitting here trying to figure out a way to keep you from leaving me. Ever since we were in the clearing, I felt like you were going to disappear on me. I didn't want to let you go because I thought that I would never find you again."

"Reece?" I could see that she hadn't expected my response to her words.

"Trinity, you need to know that I will follow you wherever you go. If you become a flying purple alien, a Goddess, a normal person, an intergalactic superhero, whatever and wherever, I will be there with you. The kids and I can't live without you. I won't let you leave me so easily. I will fight to stay right here with you where I belong. I don't ever want to spend a day knowing that you and I aren't together in this life. I need you, Trinity. Please, don't leave me."

"Reece?" She was still crying but with a smile on her face now, and I was happy to see that her lip had stopped trembling.

"I love you, Little Bunny, I love you so much." 

"I love you too, Fido." She threw her arms around my neck and hugged me tightly. I was warring with myself about whether I wanted this hug or to press my lips to hers. Being this close to her was a good thing as well, and I didn't want to ruin the moment that we were having.

"Come on, let's go to sleep. I can tell that you're tired."

I stood then, still holding her against my body, she even clung to me to make it easier for me to partially dry us off before we got into the bed. I didn't let her leave me at all, even after we laid down. I kept her in my arms and pressed my lips to her forehead.

I held her like that all night. I didn't so much as move a muscle all through the night. And when she fell asleep, long before me, I just laid there and watched her while I listened to the soft, steady rhythm of her breathing. This was what I needed. This closeness, this proof that she was here with me. I needed to reaffirm that she was with me forever and ever, and I needed to relearn what her body felt like in my arms.

I was glad that she wasn't going to leave me. I was glad that I didn't have to chase her across the world to make her know that I wasn't going to let her leave me. However, I couldn't believe that after all this time and everything that we've been through, she actually thought that I was going to leave her just because she became a Goddess. She was still my wife, still my mate, and that was never, ever going to change.

When I did finally drift off to sleep, all I dreamt about was my Little Bunny. All the things that we have been through so far, the good and the bad. The fighting and hating each other in the beginning, the time Edmond kidnapped her and she got her wolf, our wedding, the time we saved the missing kids and then the time in France, when she killed Edmond and brought us back his head, she did like bring us back heads, huh. Then there was everything that happened after that, everything that got the Fae involved in our lives and changed our destinies forever. I didn't leave her through any of that, I wouldn't leave her now.. Not now, not ever.
