~~ Trinity ~~ I honestly had to say that everything was going just about perfectly since the issue with the Fae had been taken care of. We had a new baby girl that was getting big by the time that Reagan and Rika turned three years old. Reece was the most loving and doting dad there was in the entire world. And my people seemed to be mostly at peace. I think that it was all going according to plan. What was making me truly sad was just the passage of time. Talia was almost five months old already and Reagan and Rika were showing just how smart they were while they started a sort of at home preschool with Mom and Lyla. Reagan and Rika could already recognize every single letter of the alphabet and they were working on their pen control, or rather, crayon control as they colored and drew different pictures every day. They knew all their colors and loved to sing songs that were perfect for preschool aged children. Honestly, I didn't even think they would need a preschool class if they kept this up with their grandmothers. It was cute though, both Mom and Lyla were so devoted. They were also teaching Elias. And I know that Mom took trips to visit CJ and work with him and Bree. All of these kids had overly devoted grandmothers that worked hard for them. I think they all missed their callings as preschool teachers to be honest. When Talia's first Christmas came around, she was four months old and could actually play with small toys on her tummy. Because of that, Reece went a little overboard with gifts for her. She was basically given the makings of a baby mouse maze. Reece planned to have her learn to crawl at an early age and hoped she would crawl and scoot around in a controlled environment. He just didn't want her to get hurt, but I just couldn't believe him sometimes. He was so over the top. Juniper had finished her degree in child psychology just a month before she found out she was pregnant with a little boy. He had been born three days after her twins turned three. Ella was pregnant with another baby as well. She was due to have her little boy in March of the following year. It looked like we were all expanding our families some more. Even Carter and Noah, both announced to the family on Christmas that their wives were expecting again. Both Nikki and Emmalee were due the same day and the thought of them having their babies at the same time made me smile, but also hoped that they weren't the same so that the new little cousins would feel ripped off for sharing a birthday. Yeah, all in all life was amazing. And I was happy that we were all getting to spend Christmas at home this year. It was the first time since the year that Reagan and Rika were born. Two years in a row we had gone to the Yule celebration, only for it to be cancelled the second time. Still, as fun and amazing as the Fae compound was during the holidays, I was glad that we had been home for it this year. Things with Alpha Corp, the company that was now legally co-owned by me and Reece, were also doing amazingly well. We were branching out and expanding the number of companies that we owned and operated. There were now more than twice as many people working for us in one way or another, most of which as security detail that were spread out all over the world. It seemed that hiring someone from Alpha Corp had become the next big thing, and celebrities, politicians, and dignitaries couldn't get enough of us. They also wanted to use the highly efficient and expertly trained construction crews, analysts, and everyone else that was employed by Alpha Corp or one of its subsidiaries. I had never believed that an explosion in our popularity was ever possible. It made me wonder how they would all feel if we reveal ourselves to the world. Would they still want to work with us so much? I hoped so, but that wasn't something that was in the cards right now. Another new year came and there was still nothing but calm and peace in the world of shifters and magic users, and apparently in the world of the Fae. We continued to have our quarterly meetings where the high Nobles and Grand Nobles came to tell us what had been happening in their provinces. Crimes were reported and major issues were settled. I am proud to say that there were less issues than the first year that I had implemented this policy, and I was hoping to have things keep continuing on this trend. There may never be world peace, but I can get a calmer and more serene world than what there had been before. I could hope and dream for a world like that at least. I knew that it would take a long time and a lot of effort from everyone involved, but I hoped that one day it could be possible. Reece told me that it was a pipedream and that it would never happen and, to be honest, I knew that he was right and I was being too na?ve due to my age and overall experience in the world. However, I think that part of me wanted that eventual outcome because of my experience with the world. I had more death than I care to admit. I had faced the horrors of what someone was capable of doing to their own children. I had seen that jealousy for your fellow people could sour into murderous rage. I had seen how envy, lust, power, and so much more had corrupted the souls of my people and others. I didn't want that sort of thing continuing to happen. I wanted to help everyone, protect everyone. Though, I knew that was impossible.. Still, I could hope.
