{Trinity}

"You're joking right? Please tell me you're joking!" I said.

Tyler shook his head. "No I'm not joking. I think in order for you to get those spirits inside of you is to bring them back one by one and send them back to the afterlife from where they came."

It was a good thing I was sitting down because I probably would've fallen over in shock at what Tyler just suggested. "What you're suggesting that I do is very dangerous! Bring them all back…"

He nodded. "Yes I understand but I think it's good that at least try to get them out. It's not good for you. You'll slowly go insane and they'll take over again. You don't want that do you?"

I shook my head and sighed, "No I don't want that to happen. I'd rather keep my sanity. But, I don't know…"

"Look I understand you're hesitating but you will have help you'll have me and the Elders standing by to help you in case things get out of hand," Tyler said.

I thought about it and I nodded. "Okay I'll do it. If I can-"

I didn't get a chance to finish my sentence when my bracelet that Grandma Sorceress gave me started to glow. Before I knew it I was teleported to Grandma Sorceress's realm.

***

The next time I opened my eyes I was in Grandma Sorceress's realm and much to my surprise I heard Tyler groaning in pain beside me. What the hell? I thought that the bracelet only teleported me, not anyone else!

"Yeah but I can use the power of the bracelet to teleport whoever I think needs to be brought with you child," I heard Grandma Sorceress's voice. When I saw her she helped me get to my feet and helped Tyler up next.

"I don't want to travel that way ever again!" Tyler groaned.

Grandma Sorceress snorted. "You'll get used to it in due time. Anyway, I called both of you here because I wanted to talk to you two about Trinity's Dad." She motioned to a couple of nearby chairs and had us take out seats.

"Why do you want to talk about my Dad?" I asked, "He left mom right after I was born!"

Grandma Sorceress shook her head. "You don't know the real story! You only know the story that was spun to make him look like a coward! I know your father wanted to wait until you came to him but I received an order from the High Council to speed things up a bit. And before you ask, I have no idea why I would receive such an order."

I blinked. The High Council told her to do this? What the hell? Who is the High Council?

"I know there's still a lot you have to learn about dealing with your powers and dealing with those spirits inside of you and he can also help you guys out with the hunters!" Grandma Sorceress said, "Actually there's been a record of him helping you with the hunters before."

My jaw dropped and I gave Grandma Sorceress a look of disbelief. "Seriously? How?"

"He'll tell you about himself," Grandma Sorceress responded.

I paused. "Huh?"

"Yup," said Grandma Sorceress, "You two will be transported to the Celestial Kingdom in three… Two… One…"

I was going to ask what the hell is the Celestial Kingdom but I never got a chance to when Grandma Sorceress snapped her fingers and Tyler and I were transported to the Celestial Kingdom.

The next time I opened my eyes I looked around and saw that I was in what looked like a hallway? It was dark, damp and poorly lit. I chuckled when I heard Tyler groaning in pain again. "I hate teleporting!"

"Yeah, yeah stop acting like a baby and let's figure out where we are," I said.

Who are you? I heard someone growl through the mindlink. I turned around and my eyes went wide when I saw a pure white wolf, the very same wolf that I saw in my dreams!

I would say the same thing to you! Who are you? I stood my ground as the wolf was clearly sizing me up based on his stance.

The wolf growled a menacing growl and I guess his growl was supposed to scare the shit out of you but I wasn't scared because I've dealt with worse.

"You might want to answer that question Trinity," said Tyler. "Because he looks like he wants to kill you right now!"

Yeah you two came into my territory invited! The least you can do is tell me your names! The wolf snapped.

"Fine," I said. "My name is Trinity Amoria and I am the Luna of the Steel Armor Pack."

Tyler nodded. "And my name is Alpha Tyler Amoria. I am the Alpha of the Steel Armor Pack."

The Wolf's eyes went wide. Trinity Amoria? Didn't your name used to be Mary Ava Dawn, hybrid witch from the IronClad Coven?

I nodded. Yes and I'm still a hybrid! Becoming a Luna for a pack doesn't erase who I am! Dumbass!

Excuse me? The wolf retorted. Alright, fine! Since you're half witch what are the three rules of combat?

"Are you really going to go there?" I snarled out loud.

Oh yes, I'm going there, what are the three rules of combat? The Wolf replied.

I bit my tongue and Tyler put his hand on my shoulder and nodded. "Go ahead, tell him and then kick his ass into next week!"

Excuse me? The Wolf snapped.

"You heard him," I said. "Okay fine, the first rule of combat: Stay grounded because your body is your weapon. Second rule: Never give your enemy an opening. Third rule: Keep fighting until your enemy is disabled or you are disabled."

The Wolf nodded. Alright let's put those rules to good use.

As soon as the Wolf said that, he pulled out a sword from his back. Yes that's right, I shit you not he pulled out a sword out of his back! He threw his sword at me and I barely managed to dodge.

He kept throwing his sword at me and I kept dodging the best I could. I also kept waiting for an opening but this wolf was keeping me on my toes.

Okay this is annoying! I thought as I kept dodging the wolf's sword.

That makes two of us! Danger thought. I could feel her wanting to take over and shift but I had to wait for the perfect moment for it. I could also feel Tyler's anxiety watching me fight the wolf and I don't blame him. This wolf seemed to be my match at least for the moment.

Halfway into the fight I remembered a spell that I had been working on while training with Justin lately. I call this spell the Weapon Return spell. It's helped me out when I'm in a bind and I'm trying to slow the enemy down so I could finally get a hit on them. What the spell does is it basically takes someone else's weapon and turns it against them.

So I took a moment to stop fighting just as the wolf threw his sword at me. I smiled. "Weapon Return!"

I caught the wolf's sword in my magic and I laughed as the wolf tried so hard to budge his sword against my magic but it wouldn't move. I held the weapon in my magic for a short while and the spell turned the wolf's weapon against him. His sword boomeranged towards him and he managed to dodge it and caught it in his magic.

He looked over at Tyler and I had a feeling of what he was going to do next. As soon as he threw his sword at Tyler I jumped in front of him and the sword landed into my right side.

"Noooo!" I heard Tyler scream. The last thing I saw before the world went black was Tyler snarling at the wolf pissed off that he hurt his mate.

{Alpha Tyler}

As soon as I saw the wolf thrust his sword into Trinity my immediate reaction was to shift into my wolf.

How dare this asshole hurt our mate! Jacob snarled.

Yeah I'm going to kill this guy! I thought.

Before I could attack the wolf turned to me and rolled their eyes. Don't worry she's not dead and she's not going to die. I didn't push my sword into her that much and I have the power to heal her regardless.

Doesn't matter because you hurt my mate! I growled.

Okay I'm going to give you a choice, do you want to challenge me knowing full well you won't win and die or do you want to live and come with me so we can heal Trinity? The Wolf thought.

That seemed to calm my anger down a little bit. As much as I wanted to kill the guy I wanted to see that Trinity was okay. I'll go with you. But I'm warning you if she dies-

Yeah, yeah I got it. You'll have my head for it and I don't blame you. I would do the same thing if it were my mate. The Wolf thought. He went over to Trinity, picked her body up in his magic and placed her gently on his back. The way he did it kind of reminded me of how my dad would pick me up to carry me up the stairs when I was too tired to go up them when I was a kid. The Wolf turned around and stared at me. Are you coming?

If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.

I nodded and then it clicked. The way the Wolf picked Trinity up, this wolf might be Trinity's father.

***

I couldn't stop pacing back and forth in Trinity's hospital room waiting for her to wake up. Thankfully that stupid wolf's sword didn't penetrate Trinity's side too much or she'd be dead. That told me that the wolf wasn't planning on killing her but still it pissed me off that he hurt her. If Trinity lived I would hold back on killing him. If Trinity died I was for sure going to rip his throat out! I usually don't grant my enemies any mercy but because I thought this wolf might be Trinity's dad I was going to grant him mercy.

As I kept pacing back and forth the wolf just there on his haunches watching me with an amused look on his face.

"I don't see what's funny about this you stupid wolf!" I growled.

The Wolf tilted his head. Did I laugh? I'm sorry if I did. I don't find this funny. I'm just rather amused by your overprotectiveness of your mate. I remember being like that once upon a time with my mate.

What happened to her? I thought.

She rejected me and betrayed me! It's a long story and one that we don't have time for at the moment. Don't worry Trinity will be completely healed and once she wakes up she'll be out of this hospital by the end of the day! The Wolf declared.

The Wolf looked like he wanted to say something else when I heard someone shout, "Prince Andrew Scott! You change yourself back into your human form right now mister! And what the hell did you do to my granddaughter?"

The Wolf flinched and when I saw who it was standing in the doorway my jaw dropped. The person standing in the doorway was none other than Queen Sabrina the Queen of the Celestial Kingdom!

***

{Andrew}

I wanted to laugh at Alpha Tyler's stunned look. Of course when he got over his shock he quickly bowed to mother and me. However, I knew when Mom said my full name along with my title I was in trouble. I sighed and shifted to my human form like Mom commanded me to and Mom handed me a pair of shorts to put on. I put the shorts on and turned back to Alpha Tyler. "You can stop bowing now, you're family and yes I'll explain everything to you as soon as-"

I didn't get to finish my sentence, Mom ran over to Alpha Tyler and gave him her signature really tight bear bug. I couldn't help but laugh at that. "Uh, Mom, I think you need to let go of him. He doesn't look like he can breathe right now."

Mom let go and gave him an apologetic smile. "Sorry about that dear, it's just I've been waiting for so long to meet my grandchildren."

I looked over at Trinity when I heard her groan as she was coming to. When she opened her eyes she didn't even bother to look around and see where she was and to say she was pissed off was understatement judging by the angry look on her face. "Where's that stupid wolf? I swear when I get my hands on him I'll kill him!"

Mom snorted. "Good job Prince Andrew Scott! Yeah pissed her off, did yeah have to try and kill her?"

When Trinity heard my name she went from being angry to shock. Her eyes went wide as saucers as she stammered. "Oh Your Highness, it's such an honor to meet you!"

I smiled. "Don't call me Your Highness, we're family!"

Trinity paused and her jaw dropped. "Huh? We're family? Huh?"

My smile turned into a grin. "Just call me Daddy!"

***

Trinity there staring at me in shock once again then her shock turned into anger as she gave me a death glare. If looks could kill I would've been dead on the spot.

"You! You're a coward! You leave me to grow up with that stupid bitch I have for a mother and now you have audacity to show up!" Trinity seethed.

"Uh, Trinity please calm down-" Alpha Tyler started.

"No! Don't tell me to fucking calm down!" Trinity roared.

Normally I would've interrupted and calmed her down by asking a nurse to give her some medicine to get her to calm down. But seeing that she had so much anger built up over the years I let her get it out because she needed to.

"You left me and I went through hell growing up! I even tried to run away from home because of her constant abuse and she sent the fucking hunters after me! Now she's going to send them after me again! And this time it means a war could break out any moment now!" Trinity ranted.

When Mom heard that the hunters were being sent after Trinity again she gasped, "The hunters have been sent after you? And are going to be sent after you again!" She sent me a death glare. "Why the hell didn't you tell me about this?"

I sighed, "Look it's complicated, it has a lot to do about the issues concerning me and Trinity's mother."

"What was so complicated that you had to turn tail and leave me?" Trinity said. She was still trembling because she was still angry.

Alpha Tyler grabbed Trinity and pulled her into his arms trying his best to console her.

"Well first of all," I said, "I'll let you get some rest and you need to check that wound to see if it's healed already. And second, once you're discharged from the hospital I'll send a couple of guards to escort you and your mate to the castle and I'll explain everything to you there."

As I turned around and left the room I could feel Trinity glaring at me and I don't blame her. I did leave her to live without me while she was growing up.

***

I waited until the next day to sit down and talk to Trinity and Alpha Tyler. That was mostly because by the time Trinity was released from the hospital it was nighttime and I needed Trinity to calm down. I told her I was going to explain everything I intended to do just that.

Once Trinity and Alpha Tyler were escorted to the living room in the castle we sat down and made ourselves comfortable.

"So Alpha Tyler, Trinity-" I started.

"You don't have to call me Alpha Tyler since we're family and all," Alpha Tyler said. "Just call me Tyler please."

I nodded. "Alright Tyler since we're formalities just call me Dad and the same thing goes for you Trinity just call me Dad."

"And since you're a Prince I'm going to guess that I'm a Princess right?" Trinity said.

I nodded. "Yes."

"Then what about my sister?" Trinity asked, "Is she a Princess too?"

I blinked. "Huh? You have a sister?"

Trinity nodded. "Yes, I have a younger sister named Ariel but she was born shortly after mom married the High Priest of the Coven at the time."

"Well if Ariel is someone else's child then no, she's not a Princess," I said.

"So what is the real story behind your disappearance? And does Mom know you're a Prince?" Trinity questioned.

I shook my head. "Your Mom doesn't know that I'm a Prince because I never told her. I was going to tell her after you were born but unfortunately shortly after you were born your Mom had an affair. She rejected me as her mate and convinced the High Priest to banish me from ever setting foot in the Coven ever again."

Trinity shook her head in dismay. "Tsk, tsk that sounds a lot like something Mom would do. That woman is the definition of the word 'evil!' But why didn't you try to come get me at least? I mean you're a person of Royalty for crying out loud!"

I sighed, "Look just because I'm Royalty doesn't mean I can just barge in on someone else's territory and demand that they do something! That's not the way it works. Even I have rules I have to follow. It would've been years for me to try to get you under my custody."

"Oh," She said. "So you're the Prince and your Dad's the King so does that mean you'll start ruling over the Kingdom soon?"

I nodded. "Yes but yet again it's complicated. Let's just say it involves me needing to marry someone before I can take the throne. If I can't find someone soon I'll have to go into an arranged marriage in order to take the throne."

Trinity scrunched her nose up. "Well that sucks, I mean why should you be forced to marry someone just to rule over a Kingdom?"

"I know it does suck, but every King needs a Queen," I stated.

Tyler nodded. "Just like an Alpha needs a Luna even though Alpha's can manage their packs alone, it's a lot better managing it with someone else."

"Oh," Trinity said.

"So you said you had a sister?" I asked.

She nodded. "A younger sister named Ariel."

"Well she's not my child I know that for sure, because your Mom was pregnant with one child and that was you I know because I saw you being delivered," I said. "How much younger than you is she?"

"She's two years younger than me," Trinity answered.

"Yup she's totally not my child!" I said, "So she probably is a full blooded witch and not a hybrid like you."

"I see…" Trinity said, "I have a question, well I have a lot of questions, but Grandma Sorceress said that you can help me deal with my powers and since you pulled a sword out of your back I'm going to assume that you're a Knighted Wolf?"

I nodded. "Yes I am! And Knighted Wolfs along with Double Knighted Wolves are quite common in the Celestial Kingdom."

"But if they're not rare then why don't you make that known?" Trinity asked.

"Because we don't want people coming into our kingdom because they covet our powers," I said. "And yes, Gate Wielders are common too. You get abilities from my side of the family and I'm very proud that you're a Gate Wielder and a Doubled Knighted Wolf! True Gate Wielder and Knighted Wolves are common but it is rare to be a Gate Wielder and Double Knighted Wolf at the same time!"

Trinity opened her mouth and shut it again. She seemed kind of overwhelmed with the information that she just received. I think I would feel the same way about finally meeting my Dad after having to grow up without him and thinking he's a coward this whole entire time. I would feel some sort of way if I thought I was a full blooded witch and not hybrid this whole entire time growing up, yeah I heard about that story and it pissed me off when i heard about it. That's mostly because that's just plain cruel that magic her mom put her under.

"Look I know all of this information is overwhelming and you probably need some time-" I started.

"No," Trinity cut me off. "I need to start training and the sooner the better! I need to help my pack!"

"Huh," I said, "Alrighty then we start training tomorrow!" I turned to Tyler. "I'm going to assume that you want to train too?"

He shrugged. "Sure. Why not? I'm not as powerful as Trinity is but I'd like to do my part."

I snorted. "Oh please Tyler you're the Alpha of the Steel Armor Pack! The second strongest pack next to the Royal Family of course! You're not weak, Alpha training only makes you stronger of course, but with some training from me or any other Celestial for that matter you'll be unstoppable! You'll make the Royal Family look like weaklings!"

I heard someone clear their throat to get our attention. I rolled my eyes when I saw Mom and Dad standing in the doorway. "But before we even begin to start training, your grandparents have been dying to meet you!"

As soon as I said that Mom ran up to Trinity and gave her her signature bear hug. After she let go of Trinity she did the same thing to Tyler.

"Oh finally! I get to meet my grandbabies!" Mom exclaimed.

Much to my surprise Dad went over to Trinity and Tyler and did the same thing Mom did! I was surprised because Dad doesn't really like hugging anyone. I looked at Dad with my jaw dropped. He looked at me with a raised eyebrow. "What? They're my grandchildren and like your mother I've been wanting to meet them."

"It's just that I've never seen you excited to hug someone before," I said.

Dad nodded. "Yeah I know."

"Yay family bonding!" Mom cheered. "And we're going on a family outing, not to mention we're going to have to deal with the press on this issue."

My eyes went wide and I groaned, "Great! I totally forgot about that. Is there any way we can keep things under wraps?"

Dad shook his head. "Nope, that's not possible. Somehow, people are already aware that there's a new visitor in the castle and the reporters are going to want answers hen they see Trinity and Tyler training with you."

I groaned again, "Great, perfect just perfect! Well I guess we'd better face the music-"

"That's it!" Trinity said.

I looked at her. "What's it?"

"Well I was thinking we could go ahead and do a press conference explaining who Tyler and I are," Trinity explained. "Because knowing mom she'll send the hunters after me a lot sooner than expected. She knows I'm not going to return to the Coven anytime soon, especially since I'm the Steel Armor packs Luna now."

"Yeah but there's also still a big chance that the hunters will be sent after the pack." Tyler said.

"I knew you would worry about your pack even though you're here on business," I said. "So I already sent twenty of my best soldiers to help protect the pack while you guys are gone. I already knew you two were coming."

Trinity nodded.

"Alright then let's talk about something else," Dad said.

"Like what?" Tyler asked.

Dad suggested that we talk about how Tyler knew Trinity was his mate. Tyler knew Trinity was his when he saw her in the woods after she first shifted into her wolf. Trinity knew Tyler was her mate when she saw him at a party and her wolf screamed the word 'mate' in her head.

We talked about other things and I was happy that I was finally getting to know my daughter and no longer watching her grow up from the sidelines.
