Chapter 506 - Trinity – Glory’s Private Office (VOLUME 3)

Trinity

Not sooner than I had magically dressed the naked members of my party did the door to the castle open again, the knights that I sent to put the animals away came rushing inside.
"Queen Trinity? What are you still doing here? I thought you would be much farther in." Nigel, the knight in the lead, asked me with shock in his voice.
"We had a bit of an obstacle. No worries, we took care of it all." I pointed to the guards that were falling all over themselves in the cage that I made, trying their best to get out and attack us even now.
"I am sorry that we were not here to assist you, my Queen." He bowed his head in shame as if this was the worst situation he could have imagined.
"It's fine, Nigel, we were all doing what it is that we needed to do. There is no need to apologize. Now, let us be off."
Together, our group started through the halls of the castle. I had, once again, tried to take the lead, but Reece put his foot down this time. We were in an active battle situation. There was, in his words, 'absolutely no fucking way in hell' that I was going to be in the front leading the party. And he simply wouldn't listen to me when I tried to protest.
Not wanting to turn anything into a demand and force the issue, I let the others take the lead over me. Trevor and Landon took the first position with me and Reece right behind them, which I did insist upon. I needed to be able to see some of what was happening in front of me so that I could make any important decisions regarding our attack.
The halls seemed to be quiet. Too quiet. It was eerie to walk through these halls and not see someone that was working or another resident that was just moving about. There were way too many people that lived in the castle for this to happen. What the hell had they done to everyone? I swear, if Hibiscus hurt them, she will be sorry.
Since there was nothing, and no one, in the way to stop me, I made it to Aunt Glory's private office quicker than I normally would have. Once again, the sight of the unguarded door made fear rise within me. Seeing that the normal guards that would be stationed out here were gone was making me fear the worst already.
"Aunt Glory, I am coming in." I shouted at the door.
"Gloriana, my love, I am coming in as well." Trevor yelled as he threw himself against the door. The door was, as expected, locked.
"You are not permitted entry." I heard Aunt Glory's voice coming from the other side. "Please leave. I do not wish to see any of you at the moment." There was something strange about her voice, something that was off.
"Aunt Glory, I know that isn't you talking. I am coming in there."
"Trinity, go away. I do not want to see you." That tone, the way that she spoke, it wasn't like her at all.
"Hibiscus, I know what you have done." I called through the door, speaking to the mastermind behind all of this instead of my aunt. I knew that she was in there and I knew that she was the one behind all of this.
"Bissy isn't even here, Trinity. Why must you always think the worst of her?" I heard the angry note in Aunt Glory's voice then, it was like she was pissed that I was accusing her friend of treason.
"Stand back away from the door, Aunt Glory, I don't want you getting hurt.
"No! I told you to go away!"
I didn't listen to her. I knew that we needed to get inside right away. I pushed past Trevor and Landon and threw off Reece's hand when he tried to stop me. There was no danger on this side of the door, they didn't have to worry. This was something that I could do with no threat to me.
When I was past the others and standing before Aunt Glory's ornately carved doors, I placed my hands on them. I knew that Aunt Glory would have the doors guarded and protected so I needed to overpower them as much as I could. I started to pour all of the magic that I had into the doors. I poured in everything that there was for me to give. I gave light magic, water magic, nature magic. After I gave my all to the Fae magic, I started on my witch magic and even the wolf magic. I was going to push so much into the door that there was no possible way that it would be able to withstand the sheer force of it all.
Sure enough, after I put everything that I had into the door, I heard it start to groan. The wood couldn't hold anymore magic. It had reached its limits and there was nothing left for me to do but to push it aside.
I used my magic to make the door fly off of its hinges, but I also kept it from flying across the room. I didn't want to hurt Aunt Glory when it shot across the room. I followed the door into the room, taking the lead despite Reece's attempted protests.
"Aunt Glory?" I called out to her when I saw her standing next to the fireplace. "Where is she?"
"Where is who?" She called out to me. "There is no one here aside from myself and you intruders." She was glaring at me. "I cannot believe the betrayal, Trinity. How could you do this to me? I thought we were family. I thought there was love between us. How could you betray me and do this to my people?" There was pure anger in Aunt Glory's eyes at the moment.. This wasn't what I expected when I came to save her.
