Chapter 812: EPILOGUE 8 (VOLUME 4)
Reece – Two Months Later
The babies are two and a half months old now. Man, time flies. They are already getting so big too. I remember that they were all only about three to four pounds when they were born. And now the boys, the little piggies that they were, already weighed a little over ten pounds. They were still a little smaller than the average babies their age, but they were catching up fast. Zaley, the sweet little angel that she was, weights just shy of ten pounds, that was proof that she was growing up to be big and strong too. Before long, they were going to be massive giants, just like the others were. Well, Zachary, Zander and Zayden would be if they were anything like Reagan. Zaley might take after Rika and Talia and be a little on the smaller side. They got that from their mommy.
I loved seeing how their little personalities were coming through. Zachary was definitely the dominant one out of the three. He always wanted to have the attention focused on him. Also, whenever Zander, Zayden or Zaley cried, Zachary always turned his head. I just know that if he could, he would get up and go over to them. He was going to be a protector and defender type of person, just like his daddy is.
Zander was super chill and laid back. He didn’t cry very much, but he would get jealous when his mommy paid too much attention to the others. I guess he was sort of in the middle when it came to his personality. He was definitely going to try and copy Zachary when he got older, that was just the feeling that I got from him.
Out of the three boys, Zayden was the most clingy to his mommy. He loved to snuggle his daddy as well, but he preferred his mommy. He didn’t cry a lot. Hardly ever really. But he was always happiest when he was in his mommy’s arms.
Zaley cried the least. Only when she was really hungry or wanted to be changed really fast. And even then, she made more sounds of displeasure rather than crying. She was the quietest of the four of them. She was mostly just watching everything that was going on around her whenever she was awake. She would be the least fussy during tummy time, and as a result she was the one that was progressing the quickest. She was already starting to roll over and that was not normal for babies that were just a little over two months old.
All in all, I would say that it has been quite a blessing having them with us. Reagan and Rika have seemed to mature a lot. They wanted so desperately to help take care of the babies that they were always doing their best to prove they were capable. I don’t know what had gotten into them, but it was nice to see, all things considered.
.....
Talia was as sweet as ever, even with the weekly lessons she was getting from the different gods of the underworld. I still didn’t like the idea that my sweet little four year old daughter was chosen to be their replacement. Did they give any thought to it at all? Did they think about her and her feelings at all? She is only a little girl, for crying out loud!
Yeah, well, she is able to hear and communicate with dead people. So what, big deal. She wasn’t the only one that could do that. Find someone else.
OK, she was crazy powerful and the daughter of a goddess. Does that automatically make her the best choice for the position? Isn’t there anyone else that could do it?
Yeah, there was, her mom. And I didn’t want her to do it either. Because I knew that if it wasn’t Talia doing this job, it would be Trinity. She would take it upon herself to do it like she does everything else.
So, my only options here were to let my daughter go and become the goddess of the underworld later in life or to let my wife become the goddess of the underworld now. I didn’t like either option. And that was why I was pretty much just ignoring the whole situation and pretending that it didn’t exist.
Oh, and on the off chance that Talia was really going to be going to the underworld, I had Rudy and Alexio training to be Talia’s guards. They were going to be with her from now until the end of her reign as the goddess of the underworld.
While doing my best not to think about all of this stuff, I was trying to prepare a little bit of an anniversary surprise for my Little Bunny. This was our ninth wedding anniversary. We have been together for so long now, but at times it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long at all.
I often catch myself thinking something along the lines of ‘oh it’s only been like two or three years since we met’. Then after I think that, I realize that Reagan and Rika are eight years old now. And we were together for a year before they were born. That is just insanely hard for me to process at times.
For our anniversary date this year, I wanted to recreate our first date, but with a better ending result this time. I was going to take her to Gina’s boutique, but it was now located in Trinity Falls rather than in Colorado Springs. And it was doing so much more business than it used to. They were able to expand and hire more staff.
I had called ahead to Gina’s and told them that we were going to be coming up there. They knew Trinity’s size already and had an array of dresses that had been made just for her. Apparently, they always made something for Trinity no matter what. That way they could give it to her when she needed it. I, of course, paid for all of the dresses they made for her and was going to have them delivered while we were gone. She could use them at her leisure, and whenever the situation called for it. We are immortal after all, so we will definitely have a lot of time for her to wear them.
I also called up to Kaleidoscope. That was the restaurant I took her to for our first date. It hadn’t moved locations or anything, so it would be super nice to see how it looked now and how the menu might have changed.
And on our first date, Trinity and I were still not on good terms. So, that means when I kissed her that night, things didn’t go very well at all. This time though, I was a completely devoted husband that was head over heels in love with his wife. I knew that when I kissed her good night this time, there wouldn’t be any issues at all.
Well, I hoped that there wouldn’t be. She did have the babies just a couple of months ago and that meant that she would likely be denying me even that. That was why, instead of expecting anything at all, I got us a hotel suite that came with a massage package. They would bring dessert to the room and then they would give my tired, exhausted, sexy little bunny a full body massage that would melt away all of her tension and stress. She wouldn’t be able to resist it and I would end up getting lots of snuggle time after that.
I figured we could end the night with a soak in the hot tub that our room came with and maybe some movies. The main thing was that we were going to be alone and relaxed. Just me, my Little Bunny, and the peace and quiet of our room.

The kids would be looked after just fine. That wouldn’t be an issue at all. My mom and Eve were going to be watching them all. And probably Wesley and Samuel, still can’t bring myself to call him Dad, would be there too. They would be ‘helping’ the ladies to take care of the babies since both Mom and Eve were pregnant, but we all know what was going to happen there. In truth, Mom was due with my new baby sister next month.
The fact that these two ladies were pregnant was why I also made sure that there was other help around. May was going to be at the castle with Rudy and she would be helping out as well. Also, Rawlynne and David would be there since she needed to brush up on her baby skills. She and David were expecting again, and it had been a while since they had had a little baby in their house. So, I guess my place was where people went to brush up on their baby handling skills.
I couldn’t blame them though. I mean, I have four newborn babies at home. That was way more than most people could say that they have at once. It wasn’t impossible, not by a long shot, but it was still not common at all.
Well, now that I had all these things planned, I guess I just needed to let my Little Bunny know that we were going to be going out for our anniversary. That there would most likely be the hardest part of the entire process. She probably wouldn’t want to leave the kids, but she would see reason and come with me willingly. Even if that reason was my glorious backside as I threw her over my shoulder and carried her out to the car. She was going with me one way or another and whether she likes it or not.
Yes, she might be mad at first. But I promise that she will thank me for it all later. Maybe.
