Should Have Let Me Die - Chapter 239

“If you think it’s weird we can just go in your room,” Kyra said, wrapping herself around my arm.

“No, It’s fine, we can shag in my parent’s bed,” I said looking forward.

“You don’t want me to go in there! Hyde Kline, what skeletons do you have hiding in your closet?” Kyra asked, poking me in the side, making me jump.

“They are mostly hanging on my walls, umm, I collected new paper articles as a kid…” I let myself trail off as we got into the house.

Inside the Bones and one of the females was in the kitchen, the other three were in the sunken living room that dropped down half a meter. It was one of my favorite parts of the room because I could just step over and dropdown. The three on the couch were watching the television, and I focused on the TV, but they were watching an underwater program from the discovery channel.

“So, what are the clippings of? What are you a collector of Mr. Kline?” Kyra asked pulling on my arm as I pulled us each out a barstool to sit at the island in the kitchen, the gas stove was there and there was a stacker wall oven.

My parents had done very well for themselves about ten years before this point. They had bought some land a long time for that for next to nothing since it was all barren land, but ten years ago that changed.

Someone found oil on our land, and where there is smoke there is fire. Long story short, they made seven thousand times the original purchase price, so we had it pretty good growing up.

“They had this little section where they would post the sunshine girl of the day, and I would keep them. I posted them up on the walls. They are like memorabilia; some people collected baseball cards or anime girls like my brother! Ha! Wanna see a pervert? Let me show you his room!” I said trying to divert the conversation.

“We aren’t talking about your brother right now, are we? I knew you would be another pervert boy!” Kyra jokingly scolded me.

“Ha! What did you expect? I was a boy babe, and I bet you weren’t much better!” I teased.

“Again, we are talking about you!” But I started to tickle her and that’s the end of it for now.

I turned to our boney chef to check on the progress of food, but it was already over on the table and The girl that was helping him was setting out the plates.

I looked at the two girls and noticed that one had a moon-looking mark on both sides of her temples. The other girl had a patch of stars in the same spot. The boys had sun and the other shooting star. Time to get original!

“Okay all my freshly changed Kraken, since your names are all hisses and spits, I was going to give you all names if you’re okay with that?” I asked as everyone gathered around the table.

“That would be good, we have been trying to think up names, but have not been having any luck. We all look very similar, so even with a name it might be hard.” Sun said.

“I got you covered, Sun, you have a mark on both of your temples that looks like a sun, so I think it is fitting and it will be easy to remember,” I told him, and he nodded with appreciation.

“Okay, so, you with the moon will be Luna, and another girl, with the stars, your Jupiter, okay? And last but not least, Comet! I think these will be easy to remember.”

The group tried out their names as we sat down to eat. I was pretty surprised to find a bone-in roast ham with pineapple rings on the table with baked potatoes, a broccoli and cheese salad, and Iced Tea.

I felt like I had died and went to heaven.

“Where did you get all this? I asked Mr. Bones with incredulity.

“The fridge and freezer, and I think there is a cold room downstairs with some canning as well, but I didn’t really look that much. I was just snooping around looking for ingredients, and let me tell you, this place is loaded! We could live here for a month or two!” Mr. Bones exclaimed.

He no longer had that whistle voice which was a funny voice, but I was glad it was gone. I still couldn’t believe the house even had food, but once I started to tear into the food, I didn’t care.

It was one of the quietest meals that I had been at in a long time. Everyone was so involved with their food, there was no room for talking.

By the time we were done, so was all the food. At this point, everything had been cleaned off to the point where Kyra was still gnawing on the bone of the ham.

I had tried to take it away from her, but I got growled at, so I turned to Mr. Bones.

“Thank you very much for the meal, you live up to your word, and I’m glad to have you aboard, or in the house, whatever it is. I am just glad to have a good cook, but now I am tired and I need to go put my wolf to bed. Have a good sleep.”

I stood up and then turned to my wife who was still gnawing on the bone. I put my arms out and then she put her arms out, but the bone was still in her mouth.

“You are not bringing that into bed!” I told Kyra.

“Fine, but there is still some of the good salty stuff on there!” Kyra complained as I scooped her up.

“There will be more bones to gnaw on in the future, hehe!” I said with a devilish grin.

“Oh? You want me to gnaw on it?”
