Vincent – Finding The Queen

~~ 

Vincent

~~

I was coming back from my lunch break, expecting to wake up Trinity, when Roisin came running down the stairs that led to the top floor of the castle. The stairs that led to Trinity and Reece's bedroom.

"Vincent!" She called out to me with nothing but panic in her voice.

"What is it, Roisin?" Her fear and panic were so strong that I instantly started to feel on edge as the emotions started to take over my own body.

"She's not in her room."

"What do you mean? She has to be in there. Could she just be in the bathroom?" I didn't like what this was doing to my heart rate right now.

"No. When she didn't answer at all, I decided to check the bathroom as well. She isn't there. She isn't in her room, any of the closets, or the bathroom. She is gone." Tears were streaming down Roisin's face as she said those words to me. I tried not to panic. She might have just gone back to the office. That was all it was. She woke up early and went to her office.

"Calm down, Roisin. I will check her office, you check the rest of the royal tower, alright?" The woman nodded in response to my words and started to race around the tower while I turned around and headed back toward the office that was at the bottom of this tower. The room that was right above the throne room.

"Well, that was a bust." I growled to the empty office when I opened the door. She wasn't in there either. "I should call Roisin and ask her if she has found anything.

I pulled the phone from my pocket, pressed her number and had it to my ear all in the span of a second. Roisin had already answered the call.

"Did you find her? Is she there?" That told me that she hadn't located Trinity somewhere in the tower.

"No, I didn't. I am going to start searching the castle for her. I'm going to call the others in as well, that way we can check multiple areas at once."

"O..O..OK." I could tell that Roisin was scared and just didn't know what to do.

"Wait for her to come back, Roisin. And prepare for the children to come home. They will be here in a couple of hours, but that time will pass before we know it.

"Y..yes, Sir." She was very agreeable and hung up almost immediately. 

OK, I needed to do this right. I needed to be thorough. That was why I sent in a mental call to the rest of the team, the top elite ones as well as those that were still being trained. I was just descending the stairs to the tower as I gave them their orders. They were to start their searches at several different locations and rotate around the castle until someone found the Queen.

"Those are your orders. Do what you need to do to find Queen Trinity-." I came to an abrupt halt. Right there in front of me, lying on the floor, was Trinity. "Never mind, I just found her." I told them, calling off the search.

"Is Queen Trinity alright?" Someone asked, it was a voice that I didn't recognize at all, but that wasn't news to me at all. There were a lot of new recruits that I hadn't met yet.

"She seems to be." I didn't want to give too much information to them over the link. I didn't want anything to leak.

From what I could see, Trinity had just been walking through the hallway when she fell asleep. She was exhausted so I didn't think that much of it at the moment. I just went to her side and picked her up in my arms. She felt both heavier and lighter to me somehow. What was that all about? It's probably because she had lost weight so she was lighter but she was heavier because she was limp and a limp body was harder to carry.

It didn't matter to me. I was able to carry her with no problems at all, so I just lifted her and held her close while I carried her back to her room.

"Seriously, Trinity, why did you have to go and exhaust yourself like this?" I almost wanted to laugh at her, if she wasn't so obviously suffering lately.

I got a call at about eight in the evening. Vincent was worried about Trinity because she wasn't waking up. It was not a surprise to me that Trinity was exhausted. Reece had come to me not that long ago and talked about it. He had said that he was getting increasingly worried about her and the scent of exhaustion that was coming off of her.

"I'm on my way." I told him, even though I was certain that it was just a simple case of overexertion, and that she was just sleeping off all the long nights that Reece had been bemoaning. I got ready to go though and didn't complain. Trinity was not just my Queen and my Luna, she was my friend and I would do almost anything to help her. I mean, without her I would have no happiness at all.

By the time that I had gotten dressed and made my way over to the royal tower, where Trinity was presumably just sleeping, it was almost nine. It had taken me a while to get my youngest, Rei, to let go of me. She was such a daddy's girl and at just three she could be very clingy.

Vincent was glaring at me when I made my way up the stairs and to Trinity's door.

"You're late." He snapped at me the moment that I came into his view.

"I'm sorry, it was a family related issue. As a father I am sure that you could understand that." I tried my best to make sure that he knew I didn't intentionally take longer than I needed.

"Yes, I know. I'm just worried. Come on, hurry up. Utilize every skill that you have. I want to know what happened to Trinity as soon as possible."

"She's probably just sleeping soundly, Vincent. I wouldn't worry too much if I were you." I brushed it off and followed him into the room.

"She's not just sleeping. Something is wrong with her, I know it. And you are the first person aside from Roisin and myself that knows about this." He was being way more serious than I thought he should be.

I walked into the room and made my way to Trinity's side. I saw that she was laying there completely still and breathing evenly. That was a good sign already. Her breathing wasn't indicating that something was wrong.

The moment that I made my way to Trinity's side though, I could tell that something was up. Her body temperature was a little lower than usual, and just like Reece had said, she reeked of exhaustion.

"She just looks tired, Vincent." I rolled my eyes at the worrywart. I was probably going to get an earful from Trinity when she woke up mid exam.

"Just examine her, I will take the blame. I have the authority given to me by Reece so don't question me. I am also her Beta and it is my job to lead in her stead."

"Yeah, yeah." I just rolled my eyes at him and examined Trinity.

Her heart sounded normal, there was nothing to be heard in her lungs, her pulse was steady and even just like her breathing. Everything was pointing toward her just being asleep. Aside from the fact that she was faintly cold even though she was covered up with what looked like three blankets.

"Since when does Trinity get cold?" I didn't really mean to get an answer to that question, I was just talking to myself.

"She doesn't." Vincent answered me anyway. "That is just one more suspicious thing about this."

"Oh yeah, what else is there?"

Vincent went on to describe that he had tried to wake Trinity several times. He had called for her, shaken her shoulder, lightly tapped her face, he even poked her foot with a needle to see if she would respond, and all of it was to no avail.

"Wait, seriously? Even the needle?" He nodded in response. "Well, I was going to take a blood sample, but I didn't want to hurt her."

"Do it!" He snapped at me. "Do it and tell me what is wrong with her."

"Fine." I sighed and took out the tourniquet, needle, vial, and sterile alcohol pad.

True to Vincent's word, Trinity didn't even flinch when I poked the needle into her arm. That was odd if I was being honest. What the hell was the matter with her.

"I will run this and see what comes up." I told him as I took a couple extra vials of blood, just to be safe.

"Be quick about it."

I repacked the bag and started toward the clinic instead of my residence. I needed to make sure that I ran this blood tonight. Vincent would not wait until the morning. And honestly, I didn't know if I could either. This really was weird. Based on what I had been told, Trinity had been asleep since this morning and she hadn't so much as moved since Vincent found her just laying in the hallway of the castle.

"What the hell is going on here?" I asked myself as I shut the door to my lab.
