1018 Chapter 3- Reece – Time for the Party Part 2 (VOLUME 6)

Reece

~~

After convening at the bottom of the stairs, Trinity and I saw Reagan and Rika off for their first ever Hunter’s Moon hunt. They were going to roam through the mountains and forests on our land until they took down a kill of their own. It wouldn’t be their first, but it would be the first time that they did it while under the full moon’s magic. There was a certain amount of power in the moon that brought out the beast inside of us. We were still able to think and rationalize, but on nights like this, when we were in our wolf forms, it affected us differently. It was hard to explain it to them, but I knew that Reagan and Rika would be OK. They just needed to experience this for themselves.

My Little Bunny and I were going to be leading the party for the kids that were left behind, and for the other kids that weren’t werewolves. They weren’t excluded just because their parents weren’t going on the hunt. They were welcome to be here with us no matter what.

When we walked into the foyer that was outside of the three ballrooms, I saw that there were already guests showing up, and one that I wished had stayed the ** away. And it was made even worse by the fact that Talia ran right up to him and hugged him. She didn’t even care that I was standing right here. She just hugged that smug little asshat right in front of me.

The boy in question was none other than Arthur. The son of the Alpha from Wolfhamm in the south of London. He had stayed here to get an education in exchange for his father taking Warrick and training him to be a better man. I didn’t have high hopes though, since he was the one that raised that asshole who was currently holding my sweet little Talia against himself. GAH! This really pissed me off. But I couldn’t say anything.

No. I couldn’t object to this at all. And why? Well, that was simple, my wife already gave her approval. She has even let that scummy little twit take my little Talia out on dates. Who knows what the hell he has done to her while they were out and about. Who knows what they have gotten up to. This was just ridiculous. I couldn’t stand it, but I had to. And that was what made it so infuriating.

I tried to put the boy out of my mind when I saw a group of other people approaching Talia. There was Ada, a friend of hers that she had had for a long time. She was a Mermaid whose family moved here a while back. The other three kids with her though, I didn’t know them. Not off the top of my head. They must be new here. They must have settled in after the battle. There were a few groups that had changed this to their primary location when the battle was over. Let’s see, there was the Mariposa family, they were Fae, pixies to be exact. Then there was the hawk family with the name of Dover. And then there was the.. Oh yeah, that’s who they were. They were the Waters Triplets. Their grandparents, Analise and Reef, were on the council. And their dads had started to work for me as soon as they graduated college years ago. They were a couple that was a lot like Shawn and Dietrich. One of the dads had gotten pregnant and delivered two of their three babies. The other came from someone else, but they were still considered triplets somehow. I wasn’t sure what was going on there, but they were good kids. At least from what I had heard about them.

…..

There were two boys and a girl in that group of siblings. The boys weren’t identical, but they had been the twins that their dad carried. One had dark hair with red highlights while the other had blue highlights. The one with blue highlights had slightly darker hair. They were tall, athletic, and decent looking. Considering that I wasn’t a guy, I didn’t have an opinion about them like that.

The girl was unique. She was super pretty. She looked like what she was, a Siren. She was gorgeous and looked like she could get any of the teenage boys here that she wanted, but she also looked like she was strong, independent, and a little bit of a rebel. She had cut her hair pixie short and dyed it blue. I knew that it wasn’t her natural color though, since I had been told that she dyed it just before they moved here. She was supposedly rebelling against what she is. And that just made her sound like a moody teenager.

Hmm. If these people ended up being some of Talia’s friends, it would just strengthen the connection between us and the council members. Not that we didn’t have a good relationship with them already. They were good people and always tried to do their best for us.

I looked away from Talia and the new group of friends that she was making, well potentially new friends. As I looked around the foyer, I saw Zaley. She was standing with a girl that was dressed all in pink. That was Breanna, her new best friend. And probably her only friend. She kept a close circle and it was hard to make it into that tight space. I knew that Breanna was a Fae, one that dealt with flowers or something. She was a good kid.

When I found Zachary, Zander and Zayden I saw that they were all standing together, but there was no one with them. I knew that they had friends, but I also knew that they were almost, if not more, exclusive than Zaley. They hung out with kids at school, they had a lot of fun, but they didn’t bring it home. At home, and at school, they took care of their family. And right now, while they were worrying about Zaley and Talia, they were watching over them like hawks. I actually thought that was adorable, but also really great. My boys were growing up to be men that understood what their family meant to them. And they wouldn’t let anyone hurt that family.

The party was about to start now, with the hall filling up with guests. My Little Bunny was greeting the guests as they showed up, and I heard her, more than once, explain who she was. She told them that she was me, and if they laughed, she didn’t elaborate on anything else. However, if they said they didn’t get it, she always said the same thing.

“Oh, hold on, I need the last part.” She would tell them as she scowled and tried to look like an angry version of me. That was when the others would laugh and get that she was supposed to be me. I guess I scowled a lot then. I didn’t know that I did that, but who could blame me? I mean, come on, I was a powerful man with a large family and king to way, way, way more than that. I had a busy and stressful life. And scowls were just a part of that life.

Man, if I scowled that much though, then I was glad for the magic that surrounded us all. I didn’t have a single **ing wrinkle on my face right now. There was no proof in the lines or anything that I scowled like an angry old man. Thank the Goddess for that.

“Thank you all for coming!” Trinity raised her voice to be heard above the chattering crowd. “This year’s annual Halloween bash has officially started. The three ballrooms are ready, and there is food, drinks, candy, and fun waiting for you all inside. This is the twentieth celebration that we have had for this full moon night, and I want to tell you all that I couldn’t be more proud of what is happening here. Thank you all so much for coming out tonight, and I hope that everyone enjoys themselves very much.”

There was a round of applause and some cheering for my Little Bunny after her opening speech. Following that, the doors to all three ballrooms opened at the same time and the faint sound of music could be heard from inside of them. There were spells that blocked the music from being too loud in the hall or from clashing with the parties in the other rooms. We didn’t want to ruin the night for any of our guests.

“Come on, Reece, are you ready to get the party started?” She asked me as a song from our childhoods started to flash through my mind. I hadn’t thought of that song in so long that it was honestly kind of funny.

“You bet, Fido. I am always ready to party.” I put on a high pitched voice, trying to sound like her. That was when she lowered the tone of her voice, made it rougher, and tried to sound like me.

“Well then, come on Little Bunny. The party isn’t going to happen without us.”

We both ended up laughing at that, and I kissed her again.

“Come on. Let’s go.” We walked into the party hand in hand and enjoyed the night together. It was way better than I had ever thought that it would be. Probably because I had my little bunny with me.
