Trinity

"Warlocks, Witches, Djinn, Genie, Witch Doctors, and Gypsies, I want to welcome you all to Castle Gray, home to the Queen of all shifters and magic users and Princess to the Fae. You have been invited here to be a part of history in the making. You should all be proud to be the first in this new order to meet with the Queen."

As I listened to Gabriel address everyone on the other side of the door, I couldn't help but wonder when the castle was named. I mean, it made sense to name it after us, but it was being called Castle Gray when it was primarily white. That was kind of funny if you asked me. Still, at least I didn't have to think of a name for it.

When I turned to Reece standing next to me, I saw that he looked just as surprised as I did so he probably didn't know about the name either. Well, it didn't matter anymore now, did it?

"Now, I want to introduce you all to the Queen that you may or may not have met before along with her King. I introduce to you all, Queen Trinity Gray and her King, Reece Gray."

There was nothing but stunned silence on the other side of the room as Reece took me by the hand and led me into the room. It was time for me to greet my people, even though it was wrong to think like that.

Reece was guiding me as if he were my escort instead of my king. Then again, I was the one in charge, and he was meant to be my second in command. I really shouldn't try to stop what was going on, I needed to go with the flow and adapt to how things were.

Reece didn't say anything at all as he led me to my throne. This too had been something that Athair mór had designed for me. It was large, ornate, and seemed to be crafted out of mostly white gold. It shone when the light hit it and sparkled with the jewels that were all over it. I see now that most of the Fae don't need to buy their stuff, they just make it out of magic, even when that item would cost millions and millions of dollars. The throne was huge, but comfortable. The cushions were soft and luxurious, like they were made of magic, which I guess they were. The deep royal blue of the cushion fabric contrasted so much with the shining of the throne, but it was perfect nonetheless.

Once I was seated, Reece went to his throne which was next to mine. His throne matched mine, but was a little smaller, the materials and colors were the same though. After we were both seated, it was time for the meeting to begin.

"Ladies and gentlemen, meet your Queen and King." Gabriel bowed after he had spoken and so did everyone else that was in the room. Gabriel stood after a moment, but everyone else was too afraid to move after they had bowed to me. Well, I did intimidate them to get them here.

"You may rise." I spoke in a loud, clear voice.

Everyone present did as they were told. They looked in my direction, but seemed too scared to make eye contact with me just yet.

"I know that many of you are probably worried about why I summoned you here for this meeting. As you all know by now, I have been named the new Queen to the children of magic by the God Thoth. All of our magic in the world comes from the gifts given to us by the Gods.? For us, that is Thoth, and therefore his word is law to us..You have all witnessed the power that he has given me over you all. It is next to impossible to disobey a direct command made by me."

I watched as several of them blanched. A lot of the people gathered here did in fact try to disobey me, they wanted to postpone the meeting until a later date. That didn't work for me at all.

"Now, I think you all want to know why I called you here. I have been tasked with building a kingdom that will not be just for the children of magic, but also the shifters as well."

"Why must the kingdoms be one in the same?" A voice called out from the back of the room but it was hard to pinpoint them with all the echoing.

"Do not speak while the Queen is speaking." Gabriel reprimanded the man, and the room as a whole, after I was interrupted. "If you have a question, hold it until the Queen gives you permission to speak."

Damn, Gabriel was making me sound like I was bitch that would be mad at them about everything. I guess they should see me that way since it would make things easier on me in the long run. I needed to have their respect, and if that meant that they needed to fear me a little, then that was what I would do.

"Yes, please do not interrupt me while I am speaking. That is incredibly rude." There was a gasp in the hall as someone seemed to realize that they had made a major faux pas. "Now, I will answer that one question, and then I will continue." I cleared my throat and started to explain. "The children of magic are my people as my father was a Warlock. That means that I am a Witch, however, I am not only a Witch. I am also a shifter as I was born into the wolf pack that encompasses this area. And I am also the great great great granddaughter of the Fae Queen's brother. What this means is that I am two different queens and a princess to another kingdom entirely. I am not a pure blood in any way, I am not a hybrid, but I am a tribrid. I was given the title of Shifter Queen by the Goddess Nehalennia. I was given the title of Witch Queen by the God Thoth. And recently, though I am not the Queen of the Fae, I was blessed by the Fae mother, Goddess Danu who,? by the way, would be my great great great great grandmother since she was my Athair mór's mother. I have been blessed three times by three different celestial beings. I have been charged with leading two of the largest groups of supernaturals on the planet. As to why the kingdoms need to be the same, if I am running both of the groups, I am making them into one. It would be unnecessarily hard to create and rule two different kingdoms."

They were all stunned and quiet, and so were Reece and Gabriel. They were all just looking at me with their eyes opened wide and their mouths gaped open. Well, this was off to a great start.. Did I seriously just blow the mind of every single person in this room? Oh come on, this was not something that I wanted to deal with.
