Trident Kings

Chapter 22

I am sorry it is taking me so long to update the stories, my fibromyalgia has been horrible and I also started a new class for my Master's degree as well as start my four kids on a new home school routine. I apologize for the delays and will try to get better at updating more frequently, please be patient with me.

Diana opened her eyes and smiled softly when she realized she was laying on top of John with Jason and Gabriel were on either side of her. She laid her head back down on John's chest and closed her eyes. She slowly reached out and put one hand on Jason's chest and the other on Gabriel's chest. She felt them breathing and slowly drifted back to sleep.

John felt her relax even more and cautiously opened his eyes. He raises his head and smirked when he realized she had drifted back to sleep. He glanced to the side and saw Jason smiling wide awake and then he looked to the other side and saw Gabriel was the same way. They gently put their hands over hers and John wrapped his arms around her. She smiled in her sleep.

"Let's just go in late," Gabriel whispered and John nodded.

"Let's just enjoy this," Jason whispered as he grabbed his phone with his free hand and passed it over to John. John snapped a picture of all four of them then handed it back to Jason who put it on the nightstand.

About ten minutes later her alarm goes off and she pouts as she wakes up. "Good morning Sweetheart," John said as he rubbed her back.

"Morning," She whispers as she battles internally if she should enjoy this or not. Moments like this were really confusing her.

"Morning Mi Amor," Gabriel said as he yawned and sat up.

"Morning," She whispered softly.

"Morning Luv," Jason said as he reached over and kissed the top of her head. "I'll get started on breakfast for everyone."

"Morning," She said as she sat up and looked down at the three of them.

"Careful Sweetheart," John warned as she shifted to get more comfortable. She stopped moving and bit her lip. "Sweetheart," he groaned and she looked at him confused. "Quit biting your lip."

She released her lip and grabbed the bottom of her shirt. "I'm just going to go get dressed," She whispered as she climbed off his lap.

"Okay," Jason nodded and they watched her dash out of the room. "At least she isn't panicking when she wakes up with us anymore."

"So fucking tempting," Gabriel mumbled as he got out of bed and headed to the bathroom.

"Let's just get ready for work," John groaned as he tried to calm himself down.

Just as they stepped off the elevator Gabriel groaned. Standing in front of Diana's desk was Scarlett Smith and she was livid.

"Gabriel Darling, why are you walking in with the help?" She asked trying to act sweet but everyone could see her teeth were clenched tight.

"What are you doing here Miss Smith?" Diana asked calmly. "I thought it was made clear that you are no longer welcome on this property after I fired you."

"And I thought I made it clear that you are nothing but the help so what you say has no concern to me," She scoffed as she walked over to the men.

"Go away Scarlett," Gabriel said removing her hand from his chest. "I made it very clear months ago that we are done. It was cemented when Diana fired you and Henry escorted you off the property. How did you even get back up here and what the fuck do you want?"

"We can work things out," She said batting her eyes at me. "You know you want me back."

"Obivously not if he's moaning someone else's name while he's fucking you," Diana muttered as she walked past them to her desk. "Let me guess another man has kicked you to the curb once they realized you are just after their money and status."

"You're just jealous because Gabriel doesn't see anything in you besides filing his paperwork," Scarlett seethed while flipping her hair over her shoulder.

"Who is it again that spends every single day with him?" Diana rolled her eyes as she dropped her stuff on her desk. "Oh yeah that's me not you. Now he has made it very clear that he wants nothing to do with you so I will give you the privilege to walk out of here still looking like the desparate slut you are or I will call the cops and have you arrested for trespassing. Five seconds to decide. Five....four....three...."

"You can't do that, you are just the help," Scarlett scoffed and rolled her eyes.

Diana just picked up the phone, pressed a button then said, "Yes I would like to report someone trespassing on Anderson, Martinez, and Williams Agency, yes thank you."

"You fucking bitch!" Scarlett screeched as she raised her hand and slapped Diana across the face.

"I would also like to press charges for assault," Diana seethed as Gabriel grabbed Scarlett's wrist and twisted it making her scream in pain. "Yes see you then, thank you" Diana hung up the phone and glared at Scarlett, "You should have just left you stupid pathetic excuse of a woman. Get it through your thick skull, he doesn't want you anymore, get over it."

"And he will never want you," Scarlett seethed as Henry held her back, "None of them will. You will be alone all your life."

"That is fine with me," Diana shrugged. The elevator dinged and a couple of police officers stepped onto the floor. "Oh officers this way. This is the woman that assaulted me and is trespassing."

They watched the officers leave with a screeching Scarlett then came over to Diana's desk. She was typing away and didn't look up at them.

"Don't listen to her Sweetheart," John said, "she is just crazy."

Diana shrugged, "It doesn't matter, all three of you have a meeting in ten minutes you need to get ready for. Here are your files," She stood and handed each of them a binder then pointed to the door. They sighed and headed to the elevator while she sat back down and resumed her typing.
