Chapter 928: Chapter 113- Trinity – What Is The Truth (VOLUME 5)

~~

Trinity

~~

I had just watched Rika and Alyssa run out of Reece’s office in tears. They had found out the truth about the men that they had thought were meant to be their forever loves. They had been betrayed in the most hurtful of ways. These men had broken their hearts, shattered them into a million pieces that would never be quite the same ever again.

I was seeing red. That was how angry I was at the moment. And I knew for a fact that I wasn’t the only one in this room that was seeing that bloodshot rage boiling in front of their vision. Reece, Dietrich, Shawn, Lucas and Westin were all feeling it as well.

Only one person ran after Rika and Alyssa when they left the office. Westin, Rika’s guard, left the room after just a moment’s hesitation. He was hot on their heels, but I didn’t know what it was that he intended to do. Unless the girls left the castle, which I doubted that they would, he wouldn’t be able to do much but listen to the two girls crying as they settled themselves down. I had never known Westin to be the emotional type. No, he wasn’t going to be able to make them feel better, but he would let them know that they weren’t alone in their vulnerable time of need.

“Clovio?” I growled his name through my teeth. “How dare you toy with my daughter’s heart like that? That was a despicable thing to do.” I felt like he was nothing more than the trash under my shoe. Or the gun found under the bleachers. He was a disgusting creature that warranted no niceties from me.

…..

“I swear, Queen Trinity, I was not toying with her. I meant to meet her, yes. Her and your son Reagan. They were both on the list of people to meet when we got here, but that was all. I was supposed to keep tabs on them. To report their movements back to the administration. I was supposed to be a spy, but I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t bring myself to do what they wanted me to.”

“Oh yeah, and why not?” Reece snapped at him, his voice filled with righteous fury.

“Because she was not like they told us she would be. She was not a monster. None of you are. Even Reagan, who never liked me, even from day one, he wasn’t a monster. Levi, Luka, Alexa, Lyssa, Rika, Ilana, Rowan, Elias. None of them were how we had been told that they would be. And there were others at the university too. Other nonhumans that were just as nice, friendly, and caring. I couldn’t bring myself to follow my orders.”

“STOP LYING TO ME!” Reece snarled and roared at the boy that was spouting his nonsense. I was still stuck on the fact that he knew who all of the kids were. Everyone that we had sent to the university this year. He was in on it all.

“I am not lying to you.” Clovio had flinched at Reece’s roaring tone of voice, but he was holding firm to his story. “When I got to know Rika, I knew that she was a sweet and caring person. She told me that she learned to be that way because of her parents. That you are generous and loving people that will help anyone. She didn’t outright say it, but she was implying that you didn’t care if those people were human or not. You care for them all.”

“Yeah, but that kindness doesn’t extend to your family,” I snapped at him angrily. “I draw the line at people who kill my people.”

“I haven’t killed anyone. I am not that type of person. Please, believe me. I like Rika. I still do. I know that she will never trust me again, but I was not lying to her. She is special. To me and to the world. And I swear to you, I never once reported back to the administration. I never once told them anything. The others haven’t either. The communications were supposed to come from me and me alone. They know nothing of what has happened since I met Rika. I have pretended that communication is difficult at the moment, but I knew that wasn’t going to last.”

There was a new kind of fear in Clovio’s eyes when he said those words. What was it that he meant? What had happened? Was any of what he was saying true? Could I trust a single word that he was saying? This was not something that I was willing to put up to chance.

‘Vincent. Gabriel. I need you in Reece’s office right now.’ I called out to them mentally. They were the only ones that would be about to tell me if what they were saying was true or not. They were the only ones that I would trust at the moment. They would see the truth unerringly.

It wasn’t even ten seconds later when the two of them came running across the hall and into Reece’s office. They had been listening to what was happening from my office, and they were most likely happy to be part of the scene now. I didn’t blame them. They had probably heard the shouting and could guess what was happening. Or at least part of it.

“Wh..who are these men?” Clovio looked at Vincent and Gabriel with utter fear. He seemed to be afraid of most of the men that were here with them. Probably me too, but he was at least able to talk to me calmly.

“These are two more of my personal entourage.” I didn’t take my eyes off of Clovio as I started to introduce the newcomers. “Vincent and Gabriel are able to find the truth in anything. They are blessed by the gods and can see to the heart of anything. They will tell me if you are telling the truth right now or not. And it is up to them if we trust anything that you say to us.”

“Good. Have them verify it all. I have nothing at all to hide from you. I will tell you everything.” There was a resigned and pleading sort of look in Clovio’s eyes. I saw the same one in Warrick’s eyes as well. What was it that they were thinking right now?

“Tell them what you told me. All of it, as close as verbatim as you possibly can. I don’t want to see you trying to leave anything out or slipping something else in there. Tell them what you said to me.”

“Yes, Queen Trinity.” Clovio bowed his head and closed his eyes. “I will tell them what I told you.”

I have to hand it to the boy. He was almost perfect with his recall of what he said. Yeah, yeah, there might be a changed word here or there, but the meaning stayed the same. So far, the boy was able to do what he was told to do. Now, let’s see if anything that he said was true.

I watched Gabriel and Vincent as they listened to the man speak. They were trying to verify it all in full detail. They weren’t going to let him slide with anything. And when Clovio’s recount of the conversation was over, I called the two of them over to me.

“So, what is the verdict?” I was looking into their eyes, trying my best to guess what it was that they were going to tell me. I saw that they turned to look at each other, nodded their heads, sighed, and looked back at me. “I take it that he is lying through his teeth.” I grinned at the fact that they had all but confirmed that to me with those little gestures.

“No, Trinity, that is not it at all.” Vincent was shaking his head. “He is telling the truth. Every word that he said rang with truth. He wasn’t lying at all.”

“Fuck!” I shook my head. “That complicated things.” I was looking at Clovio’s confident face. He was a bit of an arrogant asshole, but he at least knew how to tell the truth. However, we needed to see just how far that truthfulness of his was going to go. Was he going to keep it up, or was this it?

“Trinity?” Vincent was speaking to me but looking at Clovio. “If they continue to be cooperative, they might be the biggest break that we have in this case. I think that we need to listen to them. Let them tell us what it is that they know.” He didn’t exactly sound happy about this, but he and I both knew that he was right. We needed to see if he was willing to help us, or if the words that he was saying were the end of his cooperation.

“I will advise that these men are not let out of our sight.” Gabriel was looking at the two members of the Jaegan family.

“I know, Gabriel.” I nodded at him. “We will do what we can to learn as much as possible. However, I refuse to let anyone be the monsters that his family thinks that we are. I will not allow them to be harmed in any way.” I knew that Clovio and Warrick were able to hear me. They knew they were safe, but they also knew that they were trapped. For now at least. I didn’t know how long that was going to last. I guess that all just depends on the two of them.
