A Woman's Shattered Dreams
Chapter 9: The shine of hope
Bulma looked at the ruined palace of the Golden kingdom with sorrow in her eyes. She felt the strong grip of her husband's hand on her shoulder as she took in the sight of destruction. Trunks held onto Rei's hand knowing that something evil was near but he didn't know that it was just his nerves and the need of protecting Rei taking over him. Rei blushed slightly from the hold Trunks had on her. Now his hand was coiled around her waist pressing her hip against his build. "Trunks-kun what's wrong do you sense something?" Rei asked. "I'm not sure, but I sense something." Trunks said into her ear in a whisper. Her stomach turned slightly from the life inside kicking. She smiled and rested a hand on her stomach and looked at Trunks. (I'm making her be later into her pregnancy) It would be around 3 months and the life inside her would come out. The bonding between Trunks and Rei has gotten stronger in the last 4 months. Vegeta could tell along with Bulma that she would be their new daughter in law soon. A man then could be seen in a cage laying in it with blood of black dripping from a wound. "Helios?" Bulma asked. Rei gasped to see the black blood dripping from a major wound in the person's side. "Princess Earth, Princess Mars, Prince Trunks, King Vegeta. It is good to see you all have made it." Helios said weakly while trying to stand. "Don't strain yourself." Rei said going up to the guardian. The guardian sensed the unborn life in Rei's womb and looked at her with a smile. "So you have found happiness in this life princess." Helios said.
Rei's face faulted a bit. "Or is this child not made from love?" He asked. "This child is made from love." Trunks said coming up to Rei's side. "You're the father?" Helios asked. Rei looked at Trunks when the question was asked with a worried look in her eyes. "Yes, I'm the father." Trunks said, his arm around Rei's waist in a motion of affection. Helios knew the truth though but was happy that Rei had found someone to give her strength and comfort in the time that she needs it most. "I hope you two will be happy together." He said. He looked at Vegeta and Bulma. "So, I see you two have been reunited. I was wondering if you two would ever and I sense that you also are with an heir a female, Princess Earth." Helios said. Vegeta looked at Bulma and knew that it was his, she told him that she was pregnant and was surprised she would tell him but knew her straight forward nature very well. "Helios. What's with this Nephreina? Why did she kill the others?" Rei asked. "Because she hates the ones from the White Moon Kingdom and the Silver Millennium." Helios said. "Why?" Bulma asked. "Because, she wanted the Prince, your brother Lady Bulma." Helios said. "Go figure she'd want him. Almost all the enemies I've fought in my teens wanted that good for nothing Mamoru or Usagi which really egged me." Rei said coldly. "Why you wanted to be stolen from your friend?" Trunks asked. "No, it was just so annoying and very predictable of the enemy to do that." Rei said.
"So you ARE saying you wished you were abducted?" Vegeta butted in. "I've had my chance of being abducted and trust me, if I knew that I would have the power to kick his ass like I do now I wouldn't have needed saving by this one mysterious knight when I was 16." Rei said. Someone in the small group smirked inside to know that his help was easily remembered. "So, was this knight as noble as others were?" Bulma asked. "He was pretty noble. A cute one, but he seemed to be taken already, but I was teased at my 'crush' on him but oh well I got over it. If I didn't I wouldn't have Trunks by my side." Rei said kissing Trunks on the cheek making him go aflame in the face. "Well Trunks it seems you won her heart those years ago also." Bulma said. "Nani?" Rei said. "Well he came here three years ago and met you, remember? Well after seeing you once he fell in love. He had watched you from a far and would come to your aid when you needed it. Isn't it romantic?" Bulma asked. "MOM!!" Trunks said with his face beyond the red of a cherry tomato. "Well it is time I said something about it since it seems that you won't tell her." Bulma said. Vegeta smirked to see his son acting like this. He looked at Rei and saw a serious glaze in them. 'So she's sensing Nephrenia again, how does she do it?' He thought. Trunks saw his eyes scanning Rei and then tightened his grip around her waist and growled a low growl of warning. "Whoa Trunks whoa it's not like I'm going to steal your future mate." Vegeta said. Trunks calmed down when Rei's cold hand touched his flushed face and heard soft whispers of sweet nothings in his ear.
"When we're bonded I'm the one who'll be sweet talking to you, not the other way around." Trunks whispered huskily in her ear. Rei blushed, and her face was worse then when Trunks blushed. "Wow, I wonder what you said to her to make her that red." Bulma teased to her son. "It's nothing mother." Trunks said and winked to Rei. Rei looked down shyly knowing he was serious about what he said. She had fears though. And they were rushing through her mind again. 'What if I'm not a good mate? What if I am not what he wants? Oh god what am I to do to satisfy his desires?' Were a few of the questions that rushed through her mind. "You look cute when you're thinking." Trunks said. "Oh Trunks stop with the flattery already." Rei said into his ear. "Just look at them." Bulma said thinking the two talking the way they were was sweet. "When it comes to them mating we better stay away for at least a month. It seems that his instincts might seriously kick in when he marks her." Vegeta said. "What like you when we mated?" Bulma asked. Now the stares were turned to their direction. "Well it was over two months that I wouldn't let you leave." Vegeta said gruffly. "Why is it all of a sudden the talk turns to mating?" Rei questioned nervously. "Well that what Sayian's do when they want to marry their choosen partner. Mating is just another word for marry." Vegeta said. "Oh I didn't know that." Rei said. "I'll explain everything when the time comes. Don't worry about it." Trunks said in her ear. "When are you planning on marrying Rei anyways Trunks?" Bulma asked. Trunks went scarlet again. "Well, I was... I was thinking after this enemy was destroyed... that... we..." Trunks was trying to put his words together. "You would seriously want to marry me?" Rei asked with a bit of surprise. "Of course." Trunks said.
"Why are you sounding like he won't choose you?" Bulma asked. "Well... because... I'm pregnant with a child that's not his." Rei said. "I said I'll help you with this child. Do you think I'll drop my word or something?" Trunks asked. "I just... don't want to be scarred again." Rei said. "Scarred?" Trunks questioned. "My father abandoned me when I was a baby on my grandfather's doorstep, he came back and I fell in love for the first time when I was around 14, but the man was going into politics and had broken his promise on waiting for me, then there was another man he went with one of my friends, then there was Saiya, then Chad and Jadeite, I just don't want to be hurt again." Rei said in a weak whisper on the verge of tears for being reminded. "So I see that you were the one who fell in love with Lord Endymion but it was unrequited love." Helios said. Bulma looked at Rei and knew it was true. The pain in her eyes gave it away. "I won't back down from my word Rei I promise." Trunks said with his finger capturing a stray tear that had came from her eye. "You're serious?" Rei asked. "Yes, I'm dead serious." Trunks said. "Thank you." Rei said in a whisper. "No one deserves to be alone." Trunks said in a whisper to her as he hugged her. Bulma, Vegeta, and Helios left the two soon-to-be-lovers alone.
"So you will allow me to take responsibility of signing those papers saying that I'm the father and not that human." Trunks said. "Yes, of course I wouldn't want anything else but for you to be by my side along with our children, biological or not." Rei said. "So you are saying you'll be my mate?" Trunks questioned huskily. Rei blushed a pink hue and twiddled her fingers. "H-Hai." Rei said with a stutter. Trunks smirked and took her into his arms and kissed her. Rei jumped slightly from the sudden kiss but was lifted off her feet, like before from their first kiss. Their kiss was broken as Rei rested in Trunks' arms. "I'm glad you accepted my proposal." Trunks said into her ear. "That was your proposal?" Rei asked in a teasing voice. "What it wasn't that good?" Trunks asked. "It was such a sweet one." Rei said and kissed Trunk on the nose making him blush slightly. "I love you. You know that?" Trunks asked. "I know that." Rei said. Trunks took a gold ring out of his pocket and placed it on Rei's ring finger. Rei gasped. Trunks smirked and kissed her on the lips again.
