1076 Chapter 61- Trinity – Getting a Little Help Part 2 (VOLUME 6)

~~

Trinity

~~

Normally, I would enter the throne room from the back. I would not be entering it with the crowd that I was intending to speak to. I would do things by the book and play the role of the queen that I had held for a long time now.

This time though, there was no need to enter like that. They were literally following along after me and the others at the moment, so there was no need to have me walk all the way around to the other side of the throne room just to enter facing them. That would just delay this conversation unnecessarily. Not only that, but I was sure that these humans would feel a lot better if we were all to enter the space together.

There were literal oohs and ahhs from behind me as we entered the throne room. The guests to this place that had never seen it before were obviously impressed by what it was that they saw.

“This room is huge.” I heard Travis breathe the words out softly. He obviously didn’t think that I would be able to hear him.

“Yes, well, I need to have room for quite a few members of my kingdom. We have quite the extensive guestlist at times.”

“O..oh.” I saw him out of the corner of my eye, his face was turning a bright crimson red. He was embarrassed.

.....

“I know that we have a lot to discuss, and I think that this should be a little more intimate and special than most other discussions that I have. Shawn, Dietrich, do either of you object to these men and women sitting in the seats meant for our advisory council?” I was asking them because some of the seats were theirs, but also because I wanted to make sure that the humans knew they were being treated with respect.

“I think that would be best.” Dietrich nodded and gave them a smile. “This way please, if you will all follow me.”

The guards guided them to their seats at the lesser dais. Most of the guards moved to stand around Reece and I on the stage, but some of them stayed around the reporters. It wasn’t prudent to let them go completely unguarded in our home. Not at this point in time anyway.

“Alright.” I called out as I sat on my throne. “We can start discussing whatever it was that you had on your minds. Lara, I do believe that you were the one that was starting this earlier, would you like to begin?” I waved in a welcoming gesture to let her know that she had the floor.

“Thank you, Mrs. Gray.” She rose from her seat, obviously not wanting to talk while still seated. “The things that I wanted to discuss with you earlier, and still wish to talk about now, are where we all go from here. I think that I am in perfect agreement with those that are gathered here with me when I say that we are all stunned and amazed. I mean, there were rumors, like the ones about you and your guards, which talked a lot about you not being human. That permanently young face of yours has led to a lot of talk over the years.” She winked at me. “I know that we are not supposed to believe rumors, but there was a lot that we who strive for the truth just couldn’t overlook. Now that we have been given the truth by you though, I think that you need our help more than ever before.”

“Yes, I agree.” My answer came easily, but the words that came from Reece at almost the same time weren’t in sync with me at the moment.

“Why do we need you now more than ever?” He asked her.

“Well Mr. Gray, you have just told the world that these rumors are true. And as we all saw at the stadium, there are a lot of people that don’t like the idea of that. I don’t know how many people like that there are in this world, but I think that there are going to be a lot of them. And some people that might join them because they simply don’t know any better. Right now, you need us to get the truth out there. We need to tell the world what kind of people you really are. We need to show them the good that you have done over the years, and that you will continue to do over time.” Lara’s words were spot on in my opinion. I knew that she was going to be an asset to me.

“I agree with Lara.” Darius rose to his feet. “There are a lot of things that the world doesn’t know about monste… Erm, I mean, about super naturals. There are a lot of things that we need to learn from you so that we can tell the world that they have nothing to fear.” His face darkened in color, not really showing red but definitely a blush that showed how embarrassed that he was about almost calling us monsters. That was something that I knew was going to happen no matter what. There would be people that just didn’t know what to call us, and monster was going to be their go to word.

“Thank you, Darius.” I showed him that I held no ill will toward him for that slip of the word. “We really are going to be relying on all of you to help get the truth out. We will never lie to you, and I just ask that you show us the same courtesy by not lying about us to the rest of the world.”

“Mrs. Gray, I assure you that I will never lie. I will give the facts as I have them, and if people continue to hide the truth from me I can only speculate on what has been told or shown to the world, but once I have learned the truth, I will make sure that it is out there for the entire world to see.” Lara sounded more serious than I ever thought that she would be. She was definitely wanting to prove to me that she wasn’t going to make up stories about us.

“That is good to know. Are all of you in a similar frame of mind?” I looked over the other dozen of them and saw more or less that all of them were nodding in agreement. “Good. Now that we have that settled, I will begin to answer your questions.”

A sort of palpable excitement had just flowed through the room following my statement. They were excited to hear what it was that I was going to tell them. And I was equally excited. Only my eagerness about the reverse of theirs. I was excited to know what they were going to ask me. I mean, what was it that a human wanted to know about a supernatural such as me and the others that were part of my kingdom? Their questions had to be interesting, didn’t they?

“Well Mrs. Gray, may I begin?” Lara, who was still standing, asked with shining eyes and a huge smile.

“Be my guest, Lara.” I felt a flutter in my stomach at the prospect of telling her what she wanted to know.

“I have a lot of questions that I want to ask, but I think that we all want to know this one. How long have you been a queen?” There was a murmur of assent that went through the others, they did want to know this.

“I found out that I was the Goddess Incarnate on my wedding day. So, I have known since March seventeenth, Two thousand and twenty-one. I was nineteen at the time.”

“So, almost twenty years now?” Wade affirmed.

“Yes. This March will be twenty years since I have been the queen. However, it took me a little more than two years to get things in order for the kingdom. I had a lot of help to get things set up. The Fae kingdom that I visited first while I was pregnant with my twins.” I turned to look at the twins in question and then continued to explain to the reporters. “I had visited with the queen there and struck up a friendship. Shortly after that, when I was learning more about myself and my history, where my family came from and all that, I learned that I was part Fae. The connection to that kingdom was my great great great grandfather, Valerian. He is still alive, one of the original immortals in this world. He and my aunt, Queen Gloriana, helped to teach me what it meant to run a kingdom. I do not run my kingdom the same as theirs, because we are different people, but I have learned a lot from their guidance.”

“That is fair.” Lucas was nodding with a smile. “What I want to know, Mrs. Gray, is how many people are there in your kingdom. You said there were a lot, but how many exactly?”

“Well, I don’t have an exact number on me right now, Lucas, but as I said earlier, more than half of the people on this planet.” novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

“You were serious about that?” he looked shocked by this statement. “There are more people that aren’t human than there are people that actually are human? Is that what you are telling me?”

“Yes, that is what I am telling you, Lucas. There are more nonhumans in the world than there are humans. And all we want is to live in peace and harmony with you all like we have been. The only difference here is that you will all know of our existence now.”

“Wow.” Tabitha breathed in surprise. “So, we are more than outnumbered, but we aren’t going to be taken over.”

“No, you won’t be taken over. That is not what we are after.”

A wave of relief washed over several of the reporters. I think that they were still iffy and wary about this whole thing, but knowing that we weren’t going to try and take over the world was a major relief for them all. Why they even thought that we would, now of all times, was beyond me.

The questions continued. They wanted to know more about us and the different types of powers that we had. I didn’t go into details about anyone’s powers specifically, but I did mention that we had healing abilities that worked on the mind and the body. I told them that we had elemental and other magical abilities, as they had seen me use. I told them that the shifters and others among us had rapid healing, fast metabolisms, and heightened senses. They wanted to know what set us apart from them, and I did my best to explain it to them.

Of course, the standard questions about the myths came up as well. They wanted to know about full moons, garlic, silver, and all the other things that are supposed to harm our kind. They were shocked that almost none of the myths and legends had any of that correct, and that we were essentially just altered versions of humans. We were just stronger, faster, and lived longer. That was the main difference between us and them.

The more that I explained to these people, the more it seemed like they were accepting and understanding what it was that I had to tell them. The information was flowing freely, and hardly ever did I refuse to tell them something that they wanted to know. They learned pretty quickly not to ask about someone’s personal life, but other than that they were free to ask whatever it was that they wanted to.

This impromptu Q & A session lasted us a good portion of the day, but it was necessary in my opinion. The more that they knew and were comfortable with us, the more that they were to share in a positive light with the world. I wasn’t going to delude myself into thinking that all thirteen of these people were going to sing our complete praises and tell the world, but I was hoping that at least half of them would share the positivity about us all. The more allies that we had at this point in time, the easier it would be to transition into a world with no secrets.

Finally, when all the questions seemed to be over with, or at least all that they were able to think of at this time, it was time to call an end to this meeting. I knew that there was a little more that I wanted to talk about though, so I sent Gabriel to ask one of the reporters to stay while the others left.

And thankfully they agreed, because Lara only pretended to be leaving with the others before she turned back to face me with a grin. I had told Gabriel to take her upstairs to my office. That was where I would talk to her about one last thing that I had in mind. With my fingers crossed, I headed upstairs to wait for her. I, of course, was taking a magical door to get there before her. I mean, why else have magic if you couldn’t use it to your advantage from time to time. Not that I would ever say that to a human. Goddess no.
