Should Have Let Me Die - Chapter 206

After we were done playing in the sand, all of us went to go get changed, and then I met them back on the third level. I wanted to go explore, but I told Kyra that I would take our little girl with me. This was fine, I hoped, but somehow I knew I was going to be on the receiving end of this little girl for the rest of my life.

The two of them came out in matching forest green dresses, and Kyla ran over and practically jumped into my arms. God Damn she could barely walk less than a week ago, and now she was almost jumping into my arms. I was going to have to keep five eyes on this little girl.

‘You two can hear my thoughts, right?’

‘Yes.’ -Eva.

‘It’s actually relaxing to hear your thoughts, but we both agreed not to interfere unless asked. There is more than enough in here to keep both of us entertained, hehe.’ -Trinity.

I rolled my eyes, and I thought it was weird to have Gripton in my head. This was going to be quite the trip.

I said goodbye to Krya, and she gave both of them a kiss before heading downstairs. I turned around with Kyla and headed back to the way we had come in. There was no one in the hall, but I turned right at the T-intersection that I had come from the left when entering the ship. We walked to the end of the hall and there was only a door on the left side, with a button like my room.

Pressing the button opened the door to another hall with two doors on the left, but the hallway opened up to what I assumed to be the control room. I walked past the other doors, they were both closed and I didn’t have a reason to go looking around, someone would give me a tour later.

“Your back with your partner in crime, hehe. What brings you to my cabin?” Captain black asked me.

She was in a pair of grey sweatpants that fit loose everywhere but the hips and ankles, and a White camisole that was leaving very little to my imagination.

“Oh, shit! Sorry! I didn’t mean to barge in on you like this! I thought this was the control room!” I said turning to give her some privacy.

“You are lucky your daughter is with you, or I might not have let you leave this room unscathed for giving me such a one over with your eyes! Most men would already be begging forgiveness from me, but I might make an exception for…”

“Dad kisses lots of girls, but not you!” Kyla growled from over my shoulder, the sass on this one!

“Oh? Then I might have to talk to the others about joining the clan, officially!” Jenna said from behind me.

I rolled my eyes, they were getting a real workout. It wasn’t that I wouldn’t want to hammer Jenna to the bed, but I just had more than was reasonable on my plate. Maybe the wives would play sensible, even they had to have some limits!

“You can talk to them all you want, but I think the registry is starting to get maximum capacity and there are still four more of my wives to find. What kind of a man would I be taking another wife when I haven’t even rescued the ones I already have?”

“Good at deflecting women’s advances too, you are a catch! I have a coat on, so let’s go and I will show you up top, and then I will take you down to the control room on the fourth floor, deal?” Jenna asked about rubbing Kyla’s head, but I could feel her start to tense in my arms now that she had settled back into my arms.

“Let’s give you two some space,” I said while turning to start leaving the room. “I will still take the tour, but making lewd jokes to me will get you in my daughter’s bad books, She knows who her mommies are and she might just try to bite you.”

“That’s fair, I will keep my comments to myself then. Come, I will show you around.”

The Captain led us out and back into the hall, then back to the massive central area. From there we followed the catwalk down the opposite side from the stairs and we reached a hall that led to the front of the ship, but I could see a set of stairs that led back in this direction and up to the top, I assumed.

“I am going to let you two go up there, come to the third level and follow the hall on the left side of the lounge. There will be a set of stairs that lead down like this one goes up, and just head to where all the voices of people complaining,” Jenna said, giving me a smile before turning to leave.

I turned back to the stairs after thanking her for the directions and headed up to the top. The door at the top had one of these bars you push into to open the door, so I turned and backed out onto the large grey-plated deck area. The sun was brilliant and warm, so I dropped the shade I had brought down, instantly making it easier to see.

“Hyde!”

That was Dalmia, but the voice came from the very front of the ship, but the stairwell blocked my view from seeing her completely. I kept my back to the back of the ship and striped around to find three of the girls tanning in the brilliant sun. Dalmia, Tamika, and Nika all sat up with their own sunglasses down.

“Getting some sun? It is really nice up here, but there is hardly any breeze,” I said letting Kyla down to run over to the women who all made a fuss, but it was Nika that pointed out in front of the ship’s railing.

I looked, and at first, I didn’t notice anything, but then I ran up to the railing and looked down. No fucking way.
