Should Have Let Me Die

Chapter 197: Not To Eat Good Ammo!



Chapter 197: Not To Eat Good Ammo!

Trem took us back to the beach where the women and children were. All the women cheered when they saw that we were back, but then they all stopped when they saw Wendy and me.

"Was there an attack in the bakery?" Dalmia asked, coming up to me.

She ran her finger down my cheek, whipping some chalk off. Then Dalmia popped the finger in her mouth before I could stop her. The group and I all started to laugh as Dalmia started licking her palm to get the chalk off.

"What happened to you after you went for your tour?" Alex asked, looking me up and down and the rest of the women started to gather around with the kids.

"Let us get clean, and then bring some towels and the kids. We can play in the sand and talk about it!" I said as I scooped up Wendy and started to run to the water and she laughed in my arms.

I didn't have to look back, I could feel their eyes rolling as they went to gather things up. It was a good idea, but eye-rolling is just a natural expression my wives take on whenever I get an idea. 

The two of us splashed into the water, I turned and fell back into the water. I let Wendy go as we plunged into the warm water, fleeing some of the chalk coming off me. I stood up in chest height water and then pulled my shirt off to exposed my solid chest and tattooed arms. 

I tossed it to the beach and then started to scrub off the remaining bit that was glued to me. Wendy was having her own fun time getting the little clumps out of her hair, and I smiled, thinking about my bald head. Then I reached up and my smile cracked, as I felt stubble and felt a twinge of the loss of the fire magic to just torch it off quickly.

I would just have to get Kadence to do it for me. As the women said, I was going to have to rely on them more now. I didn't like the idea, but I sure they must not like sitting on the sidelines all the time. 

Once the two of us were finished cleaning up, we headed back to the beach. Everyone was setting up blankets and umbrellas, small tables with bowls of fruit, and pitchers of different colored drinks. I had already changed into shorts before leaving so I was standing in a pair of knee-length black shorts, watching my family bustle around. 

Then I spotted the place where the kids were being dropped off with Xelios and Arrentia both with varying degrees of baby bumps. I walked over and dropped down on a blanket with the girls and kids. Flenli was wiggling her little arms and legs around as she lay on her stomach, with Kenos, Lydia, and Kyla playing in the sand. 

I had to scoop Kenos up as he started to cry; Kyla and got Kenos to lay in the sand and then she started to bury him. The problem was she was backward on her knees, pushing her head into the sand, and using her little arms like windmills to send sand everywhere around here. I looked down and Kyla, who was now sitting and looking up at me while picking her nose, and eating it.

"Stop that you like bugger! Hyde Stop her if you see her with her finger up her...what are you doing?!" Kyra asked after she pulled Kyla's finger out of her mouth and whipped it off on the sheer dress bottom she wore over a forest green bikini, making it a bit less sheer.

I was picking my nose, and Kyra was glaring swords, knives, daggers, and other sharp objects at me, but I ignored her. Kyla was watching me with widening eyes as I pulled out a good one. I pointed at Cable, with my booger-covered finger and wiggled my eyebrows at Kyla, making her squeal, mom's eyes roll, and my finger flicking the snot projectile onto Cable's shoulder.

"Awe, yeah nasty! What is wrong with you?" Cable complained flicking the booger off his shoulder.

Kyla was laughing so hard that she tipped over and then got the hiccups. That just made her laugh even harder, like a miniature hyena. Kyra spiked up our giggling and hiccuping little girl, giving me a dirty look, but I just stuck my nose up at her.

"What are you teaching our little girl?!" 

"Not to eat good ammo! You don't want her to eat them, but she is a little gold digger, so I gave her a...new direction for her bad habit!" I said in a mocking haughty tone.

Krya had to pull Kyla's finger out of her nose and pin her hands as she hauled the little monster away. I looked down at Kenos, who was fast asleep in my arms, and I looked over to see their Wendy was back over with Alex, and the two of them were feeding the girls. Xelios scooted over to my right side, where my arm was free. 

I lifted it up and Xelios tucked herself up under it, turning up to give me a kiss.

"Thank you for ending my mother, I know it's a weird thing to say, but you saved a lot of people's lives. Now others can get back to their families and start living normal lives where they aren't forced to do things to hurt others. My mother was a bad woman, so I hope you do mind if some of my family comes for supper tonight," Xelios asked me.

"Pops is coming over? Brother and sisters? I'm there babe and they are more than welcome to come and join us! Bring the whole crew!" I said with a smile.

"Sure! I bring my brothers and sisters! I had fourteen siblings, so it will go to get things over with!"

"Fourteen?" 

That was a lotta extra plates.
