Reece
~~
Now that I had made all of my calls to ask for help, there was something else that I needed to do. I needed to tell everyone, specifically my Little Bunny's family, about what had happened. The only one that knew about it so far was Noah, and I knew that he was keeping that a secret until we could figure something out.
I knew that I didn't have answers for them right now, but I needed to tell them. It had been two days so far and they would start to worry and wonder soon. If they didn't hear from her or see her soon, they were going to get suspicious about what was happening.
Not to mention, I couldn't keep them in the dark about it. I wouldn't feel right doing that. I would feel like I was doing something wrong and deceitful. That was not the image I wanted to have when it came to dealing with my in-laws.
So, for better or for worse, I invited everyone to come have dinner at the house. It was going to be for the day after the phone calls that I made, since Carter and Emmalee would need to drive a couple of hours to get here from their pack, which by the way was flourishing under Carter's reign.
Everyone other than Carter and Emmalee lived in the area around the castle, or even in the castle. It would be a lot easier for them to come to dinner and therefore I didn't need to wait for them.
I wasn't going to forget anyone at all when I counted those that my Little Bunny called her family. Juniper, Paul, Cedar, and Acacia were coming to the dinner as well. Their children were coming, but they would be spending time with Reagan, Rika, and Talia while I spoke to the adults alone.
I had called down to speak with Abigail and ask her to prepare the meal. That was when she asked me about Trinity.
"She has not had a meal since breakfast two days ago. What is wrong with her, Reece?" I could see the heartache that was filling her eyes. She was such a kind and loving person and she adored my Little Bunny.

"We don't know what is wrong with her, Abigail." I sighed and looked down at the floor to hide the pain in my eyes. "We're trying to figure it out but, at the moment, we are stumped. She is asleep, almost like she is in a coma, but there is nothing physically wrong with her."
"Huh?!" She gasped in shock when she heard my words. "Reece, my boy, I am so sorry." She came closer to me and hugged me then. I remember how she had taken care of me after my mother went into a similar condition. She had been there for me to be the family that I needed at the time. I guess, for her, she was always going to be that family for me. I was happy to see that.
After that, Abigail started to prepare for the dinner and left the room. I hadn't told those that would be the most upset about it yet and it was already almost too much for me. I needed to do better next time. I needed to try harder next time.
Finally, the time for dinner rolled around. I waited in the hall for the children who were getting ready for the meal on their own. Their attendants were given time off for this current situation. We needed to keep the information protected at the moment. We knew them, and we trusted them, but that didn't mean that they wouldn't gossip. Of course they probably wouldn't do it maliciously or anything like that, but it was still a possibility that they would tell someone and I couldn't risk that happening. No, this was safer right now.
Now that the children and I were all ready, we went down to the dining room where we were due to greet our guests. They were all waiting for us already. I wanted to have everyone here and greet them all at once. That would be the easiest on the kids. They were going through enough right now, I didn't need to add more to it.
"Daddy, why do we have to have a party right now?" Reagan asked me while we walked to the dining room.
"This isn't a party, son. This is just dinner with our family so that we can tell them what happened to Mommy. We don't want to repeat it several times, do we? It would just be much easier and makes more sense to have them all here at once to tell them." I tried my best to explain it to them.
"Then, why do we have to play with the other kids? I don't feel like playing right now." Talia sounded so sad, and heartbroken at the moment.
"Well, Talia baby, it wouldn't be nice to make the other kids feel bad by hearing about Mommy, right? I know you're all sad but you don't want them to hurt as well, do you? So you will all be playing with the other kids so they don't hear us grown ups talking. And I would like for you all to not talk about Mommy at all during the dinner. It would be best for them not to know at all."
"Alright."
"OK, Dad."
"We won't tell them anything at all." All three of them agreed to what I said so readily. They really were good kids. How did I get so lucky to have such good kids? I hoped that the triplets made it with Trinity in the state that she is in right now. I didn't want anything to happen to them or my Little Bunny. I wanted all of them to survive. And I couldn't wait to see what kind of people the triplets grew up to be.. If they were anything like the other kids, they would be perfect.
