Chapter 573 - Trinity – Wedding Do Over

~~

Trinity

~~

Now that the war was over and the prisoners had been dealt with, it was time to move onto other things. Happier things. Namely, the wedding do over for Aunt Glory and Trevor.

I knew how much Aunt Glory had been looking forward to her wedding and how disappointed she had been when that whole incident had caused it to be interrupted. Now, though, it was time for us to try it once again.

I had even asked Daciana if she wanted to redo her wedding as well, since her day had been ruined by the appearance of Solanum as well.

"No, Trinity, I do not need to redo my wedding. I am married to my love already. I am just thankful that the commotion didn't interrupt both ceremonies. Now, as much as we were willing to share the date of our nuptials with Queen Gloriana and Trevor, I am happy that Valerian and I have the date to ourselves." I could tell she was just trying to stop us all from fussing over her again. She had been extremely nervous the first time around. Not to mention that redoing her wedding would mean calling all of her guests back to the city once again. I was quite certain that some of them were traumatized about the entire event.

"If you're sure, Daci, then we will leave it at that." I smiled at her, calling her by the nickname that I had given her to make her feel closer to both me and Reece.

"Thank you, Trinity. I am happy that you would think of me, but please focus on Queen Gloriana for now. She needs this more than I do right now."

So, I did as she had told me. I started to focus all of my attention, that wasn't on Reece, on Aunt Glory. I was getting Aunt Glory as ready as possible for her big day. The banquet was prepared, the dress was redone and Trevor was looking as cleaned up as a wild man such as himself could possibly look. It was all going according to plan.

When it came to the day of Aunt Glory's wedding part two, we were all very nervous and excited. I think I was the most nervous of all. Most likely because I was thinking to myself that I would destroy anyone who tried to ruin this day for my Aunt Glory. I wouldn't put up with her having waited so long to marry her mate only to have the wedding postponed time and time again. That was likely to make her think that she was never meant to be married. Aunt Glory deserved just as much happiness as everyone else.

With our makeup looking perfect and Aunt Glory's dress as beautiful and stunning as before, the two of us were waiting in the bridal room. I could see the tension and fear in Aunt Glory's eyes and knew that she was expecting the worst of today.

"Glory." I smiled at her, dropping the familial relation between us and talking to her as a friend, just woman to woman. "You don't need to worry. I promise that this will all go smoothly."

"I will worry, just the same. I won't be able to help it. I am scared and worried that someone else will show up or something will come up to stop the wedding. I am thousands of years old, Trinity, and I have yet to be married."

"I know that, Glory, I do. But that just means that your love was worth waiting for. What you and Trevor have will be so much more special than everyone else's. The two of you have so much love to give to each other, so much passion for each other. You're going to make everyone else jealous because of it." I saw her blush but she was also smiling when she heard my words.

"You truly think so?" I could hear the slight girlish giggle in her voice as she spoke. Sometimes, when she was showing how much she loved Trevor or how much she cared for her family, she looked just like a teenager, so young, so happy, so carefree.

"Yeah, I really do."

After I got her calmed down, Athair mòr came in with a smile. He was wearing his water themed suit that he had gotten married in. It suited him perfectly.

"My Glory, you are so beautiful." They were two parts of a whole. Two of the three that had been born many, many centuries ago. "I am happy for you, sister. So much happier than you will ever know." He took his sister's hand and kissed the back of it softly. "Let us go now, so that you might be married to the man that completes your soul." Sometimes, Athair mòr spoke like a cheesy poet, but he wasn't wrong.

I left the room first, going down the aisle as the maid of honor. I could see Reece and Trevor waiting for me at the altar. Reece was, once again, Trevor's Best man. Once I was in position, the music changed again, it was time for Aunt Glory to come out, escorted by her brother.

She walked slowly down the aisle. There was no flower girl this time since Reagan and Rika had been sent home, so instead, there were flower petals raining down from above. The soft, delicate little petals were in several soft pastel colors. There was pale pink, a soft yellow, green, blue, white, so many of them swirled around Aunt Glory and Athair mòr as they walked toward the altar.

"Welcome, friends and family, to the wedding of our Queen, Gloriana. We are gathered here again to join Trevor Jacoby and Gloriana Belpheobe as husband and wife. They have had a long and arduous journey just to get to this point. I hope you are all as happy as I am to see them here today, to celebrate with them their union." Ash was once again officiating the ceremony just as he had before. "Who gives this bride to be married today?"

"I do." Athair mòr smiled. "Her brother, born from the same womb on the same day, bound with her by flesh and blood but also love and family."

With that, Athair mòr turned to hug Aunt Glory with a smile before helping her onto the raised platform. Aunt Glory took the last few steps on her own so that she was standing next to her mate. She took his hand that he had held out waiting for her. The smile that was on his face matched the one that was on Aunt Glory's.

"I ask now, if there are any objections to this union?" Ash asked with an uneasy voice, and I noticed Aunt Glory tense up immediately. I believe that she and everyone in attendance were thinking the same thing. 'Please, let no one object this time.'

After a moment or two, with no one rising to speak or object to the union, I saw Ash, Aunt Glory, and Trevor all visibly relax. I even turned to see where Athair mòr had taken his seat in the front row and watched as the relief washed over him. Thank the Goddess that no one tried to ruin this day.

I watched on with a smile as Aunt Glory and Trevor followed the directions that were given to them by Ash. There was nothing but pure bliss in their eyes as they recited the usual vows. However, Trevor seemed to have a surprise in order for us all.

"If I may, I would like to add something. A special promise for my mate."

"Trevor? I thought we weren't writing our own vows, after what happened last time?" Aunt Glory looked shocked.

"I don't know if you will call this a vow. Not really. I just have something that I want to say to you, my love. That is all."

"Trevor."

After Aunt Glory gave him a sweet, loving smile, Trevor started to speak again.

"Gloriana, my love, you came into my life at a point when I needed you the most. At the time, I was just so happy to have a mate that I didn't know how much you needed me as well. I know that we need to be there for each other. That is something that I didn't know at first, and I admit that I was stupid. This whole ordeal, everything that has led up to this moment, it has shown me what I didn't understand. I just want to tell you, Gloriana, that I will never again underestimate something when it comes to our love. I will give it my all, one hundred percent of who I am, because that is how much of my heart that you hold. I had given it all to you and I couldn't be happier."

Tears streamed down Aunt Glory's face at his words, and I saw that Ash understood this promise, this vow of Trevor's was over. He could finish his job.

"I would like to take this moment to say one more thing: I now pronounce you husband and wife. Trevor, you may kiss your bride."

Applause rang out all over as Trevor pulled Aunt Glory toward him. He pressed his lips firmly against hers and kissed her passionately and deeply. I guess Trevor was always going to be Trevor, no matter the situation.

I was happy for the two of them. They were finally married. Aunt Glory finally had the wedding that she had been longing for all these years.. And I am so not crying right now, there is absolutely no reason for me to be so emotional right now.
