Now that we had successfully finished our first ever Peace Council meeting, we could focus on other things. I am not going to say that our work was done, but the business of it all would lessen. The main reason that things were so busy for this past month was because we had needed to appoint noble titles, select council members, and hold meeting after meeting.

There was a lot that had to be done, and we had worked nonstop throughout the entire month since the day that the castle had been constructed. It had taken us over three weeks to do it all with near constant work every single one of those days. It was worth it though. To have it all done and out of the way, that was the best possible thing that we could do.

There were other minor things that we needed to take care of. Building and staffing the barracks. Calling in recruits from all over the world that would train here. Staffing the daycare center and getting that up and running. Finalizing the school and other infrastructure in the city that we had built. There was a lot, but we would get to all of it now that the first portion of business was done and over with.

Now though, we had to focus on other things. Tomorrow was my Little Bunny's twenty-first birthday. She didn't want a party, but that wasn't really an option when you're a Queen. Your people want to celebrate you, and that is just a simple fact of our new life.

One plus side of all of this was that her birthday was on a Saturday so we could host it and not have to worry about it. The actual 'party' was a banquet dinner and ball. The High Nobles were invited as were several of the Central and Ancillary Nobles. Not everyone was coming, of course, since we couldn't house them all. The Grand Nobles were already here for the meeting so they didn't need to travel to make it. The others were on their way and would be arriving throughout the day.

Tonight though, the day before the whole party, I wanted to celebrate with my wife, just the two of us. We were taking the day off from working at all. There were to be no interruptions for us until tomorrow afternoon.

During the entire morning and afternoon today we were going to spend time with Reagan and Rika. They were the most important things in our lives, aside from each other, and I just knew that Trinity wanted to be with them. Not to mention, she didn't know about my plans for tonight.

Our family and all those close to us were going to be here with us for part of the day to celebrate Little Bunny's birthday: Mom, Eve, Wesley, Noah, Nikki, Elias, Carter, Emmalee, CJ, Samuel, Valerian, Juniper, Paul, Rowan, Ilana, Shawn, Dietrich, Alexandria, Alyssa, Levi, and Luka, Shane, Falena, Kaiden, David, Rawlynne, Kaede, Vincent, Heather, Conner, Renea, Faith, Tyler, Charlotte, Gabriel, Roisin, Bryce, Bree, Riley, Katie, Roan, and Alexia, Landon, and Trevor.

It was quite the guest list, a lot of people that we had collected over the years. A few of those people will be 'working' technically, but they will also be part of the party as well. They all loved and wanted to celebrate with us because of everything that we had been through together.

I had bought Trinity a new dress for today, not one of the Queen dresses as she called them, just a regular dress. It was a casual style with a v-neck and slightly longer sleeves since it was winter. The dress itself shifted colors from solid black at the top to having different stars and fading down until it was white on the bottom. It was pretty, at least I thought so. And Trinity was wearing it so it must be at least a little pretty.

When Trinity came down to the party in her new dress, Rika ran to her first. As soon as Reagan saw her, he also ran to her.

"Mama pree, Mama pree dress." Rika was telling her mommy that she was pretty in her dress, and I saw my Little Bunny's face light up.

"Thank you, sweetheart." She kissed Rika's cheek.

"Mama." Reagan screamed when he got to her side. "Mama hug."

"Of course, Reagan. Mommy will always have hugs for you."

I watched then as my beautiful wife picked up both of our babies in her arms. They loved it when they were held together because they would hold hands when they were like that, still hugging the person back, but holding hands with each other nonetheless. They were such loving babies.

When everyone had arrived, and the party officially started up in the Royal Tower, it was just like how things used to be. We talked and joked about normal things that people do. We had fun watching all the kids playing together, even the youngest among them were seven months old and were active and curious about everything.

There was good food, excellent conversation, and music playing. Today had been the first time that I had seen my Little Bunny this relaxed since before we went to the Fae compound. Not that she had been stressed or upset, nothing like that. It was just that my Little Bunny had been so busy being the Queen and hadn't been spending any time just being herself. I knew first hand how hard that could be, but it was on a smaller scale. Not that I was a Queen, nope nothing like that. For me it was being the Alpha and needing to stay in character during certain times. Still, at least we had times like these.

The party lasted until late in the afternoon. No one truly wanted to leave, most of all Trinity. However, I had other plans for her, and it was time to get going.

"Bye my babies. Mommy loves you.." My Little Bunny hugged and kissed Reagan and Rika before we left together.
