Chapter 370 - Reece - Labor Part 3 (VOLUME 3)

~~

Reece

~~

I couldn't believe that Trinity had broken the bed rest rule. Well, I guess if she was ever going to break it, today was the day. We were getting ready to go to the hospital after all. And I could understand that she would want to get cleaned up. I would have done the same thing if I was in her position. I barely had the wetness touch me but I couldn't think of anything else but taking care of my wife. She was way more level headed than I was most of the time. Still, maybe I should send someone to get some clean clothes for me soon.

We made it to the hospital with no incident. I didn't have to rush so much this time since it wasn't an emergency like it was when Trinity had her hypertensive crisis before. She was in labor right now, but she was alert, and everything seemed to be just fine for the time being. I wasn't going to panic unless something else happened. Well, I hoped I wouldn't panic.

When we got to the hospital I pulled up right out front. I walked around the side of the car and lifted Trinity into my arms and carried her inside while mom carried the two bags that we had, one for Trinity and one for the babies. The valet took the keys and parked the car. That was a very useful thing that a lot of hospitals had, and I made certain to take advantage of that right now.

I knew we didn't have to go through the emergency department. We needed to go through registration; that was what Griffin had told me. It would be quicker that way. I was going to follow all of his instructions to make sure that I got this all done properly. I went to the desks that were just beyond the welcome station and carried Trinity to the first one that was open. There was no one waiting to check in at the moment so I just sat down.

"Sir, you need to put your name on that clipboard over there and wait to be called." The woman behind the desk scolded me. I raised my eyebrows at the empty lobby and then glared at her.

"There is no one out there, and as you can see, my hands are a bit full at the moment." My voice held a biting edge. "Mom, will you please write Trinity's name on the board over there and hand it to this woman for me?"

"Of course sweetheart." I could hear that my mom was trying not to laugh at my childish attitude. I didn't consider this childish, I considered it taking charge.

"Oh, fine." The woman held out her hand for the clipboard and waited so that she could check us in. "What is your name Sir, and what is the patient's name."

"The patient is my wife, Trinity, and my name is Reece Gray." I saw the moment that the recognition flashed across her face. Yes, my name was definitely a famous one. The problem was, most people didn't imagine someone that was only in his mid twenties. That made it awkward when they met me for the first time.

"R..R..Reece Gray?" She stuttered over my name for a moment. "THE Reece Gray, the m..m..m..millionaire?"

"No, Madam." I grinned at her. "Reece Gray, the billionaire." The blush that spread across her cheeks then made it clear that she had vastly underestimated me.

"I..I'm so sorry, Mr Gray. I didn't mean to be so rude. W..w..what brings you and your wife here this evening?"

"Isn't it obvious? My wife is in labor?" As I looked at Trinity's face, I could see the pain clearly written on her face as another contraction gripped her. "I would like to get her upstairs and into a comfortable position sooner rather than later if you do not mind."

"Y..y..yes, Sir. I'm so sorry. Just let me get you checked in. I need your ID and insurance information. Once I have that I will check you in as quickly as I can."

Once I handed her over the proper paperwork, she did just as she had said. She worked fast and had us ready to head upstairs to the labor and delivery floor in no time at all. She had even called someone to push Trinity in a wheelchair, but I refused.

"If you don't mind, I would prefer to carry her. I am a tad bit possessive." I warned off the man who had been looking at Trinity and ogling her beauty even though she was clearly in the arms of her husband. He scampered away as fast as he could and all, but yelped in fear as he ran.

"You shouldn't scare the hospital employees." My Little Bunny scolded me, but she was laughing as well so I knew that she had found it just as funny as I did when the man ran away.

"Mr. Gray, aren't your arms getting sore? You've been holding your heavily pregnant wife since before you got to my desk. She must be getting hard to carry by now." The woman at the registration desk didn't seem to want to let us go just yet either.

"Madam, I could carry my wife from now until the end of time and my arms would never tire. She is my Queen, there is nothing I wouldn't do for her."

I nearly laughed at the shocked look on the woman's face. She thought I was just being romantic, which I was, but there was more to it than that. Trinity truly was my Queen, twice over in fact. I would never let her go if I didn't have to. I would carry her and our children in my arms at the same time.

I walked away, nearly chuckling from the way that the people were watching us. They were obviously impressed by my physical strength, but they were also impressed by the intensity of my love for my wife. Any man could be capable of a love like this if he just gave himself to his lover fully. That was all it took. To stop denying the way you feel and to love that person with every fiber of your being. That's what it took for me anyway.

I got onto the elevator with Mom and Trinity and heard the awed whispers that followed us.

"Honestly Reece, you need to tone it down a little." Trinity scolded me again as she hissed through pain.

"I think it was sweet. He is showing everyone that he is unavailable because he is so in love with you." Mom was supporting me over Trinity for once, that made me happy.

"See, Mom gets it. I am just trying to stop all the people out there from thinking that they have a chance with me. I didn't exactly hide our relationship, but we didn't announce it to the world. I am a big name in the world of business, and I am a celebrity because of my wealth. Women all over fantasize about me, whether they are supernatural or not." I heard a growl come from my Little Bunny's throat then when she realized that so many people desired me. "See, now you know how I feel when men stare at you and make their lust so blatantly obvious. I don't like it any more than you do."

"Fair enough. But let's not threaten hospital staff. I don't want to ruin Griffin's job." Trinity laughed then as we got off the elevator at the proper floor.

"If that were to happen I would just buy the hospital and make him the director so that he didn't have to worry." She laughed for a moment, but then she seemed to catch the look on my face.

"You're serious?" She was shocked but the pain took her again so I didn't bother to continue the conversation. We had made it to the floor we had needed anyway, and Griffin was standing there waiting for us.

"It's about damn time." He growled at us. "Lila, the rest of the family is waiting down the hall, you can join them. Reece, you need to change into scrubs while we get Trinity settled in." Griffin started to give orders as he guided me down the hallway. He seemed to be under the impression that I was going to be leaving Trinity's side. That was not going to happen.

"I am not leaving her." I glared at the room full of people I barely knew. Yes, they were the same doctors that helped out last time, but that didn't matter to me.

"You can change in the bathroom of her room. You just need to change your clothes. Make it quick, Reece, and you won't miss a single thing." Griffin was grinning at me as if he thought that I was being difficult. "Don't worry, I won't leave her alone while you get dressed."
