When we hear the door downstairs burst open before hearing kids rush into the house.
"Everyone alive?" I hear Aria, Ryker's mother sing out from downstairs. Ryker looks to the bedroom before looking at me.
"Kids are here, how's your headache?"
"Gone now,” I tell him hopping off his lap. I race to the bathroom and have the quickest shower, brushing my teeth before getting changed. When I came back to the room, Ryker was gone and the bedroom door was left open. I walk downstairs and can hear talking and laughing and a lot of mumbles.
Arial was face done on the table and looked like shit, Lana was sipping on a blood bag while making breakfast with Aria and Ryker I couldn't see.
"He is with the kids out back, on the swings,” Aria says nodding toward the glass sliding door.
Hearing a noise behind me, I see Tyson walk out, sniffing the air before gagging and rushing out the back and hanging his head over the railing and puking.
"That's what you get you little shit, for stealing the other bottle,” Arial calls after him lifting her head from the table.
"You look fine,” she says before sniffing the air, "you fed on Ryker,” she says wiggling her eyebrows at me.
"Leave her alone,” Aria scolds her daughter.
"What? I was just saying,” Arial says.
"Kids are out back if you want to see them" Lana says and I nod.
"Did they find the other facility yet?" I ask Aria.
"No, but they know we are looking for it. Drake sent scouts out last night but we are thinking they might be underground. We have checked everywhere else that's big enough to hold that many kids and go unnoticed but can't even pick up a scent anywhere,” she says.
"We will find them Reika, these things just take time" Lana adds. I nod, not liking that I have to wait, but what other choice did we have?
Walking out the back, I see Ryker pushing the two girls on the swing. So I am assuming one must be Arial's daughter Macey.
Titus, Lana's son was on the slippery dip calling out for Ryker to watch him go down the slide.
"Wait buddy" I hear Ryker call out to him but he doesn't listen instead jumping and plonking on his butt. Ryker managed to grab him before he slid straight off the end alarmingly fast.
"The little one only,” Ryker tells him, chucking the boy over his shoulder and going back to the swings. Titus climbs on his shoulder and holds his hair as he walks back to the girls.
"He will be a good father one day,” Aria says walking out behind me. I nod at her words and she hands me a cup.
I sniff it to find it is coffee. Tyson was laying on the ground on his back looking very green next to the stairs leading down to the grass.
Chapter 67
"Gohelpyourbrotherwrangle them kids,” Aria tells him. Nudging him with her foot.
"Mum!,” Tyson groans.
"No, go get some sun on that head, you shouldn't have stole your sisters bottle last night"
" I didn't it was Ace"
"Didn't stop you from drinking it, did it?" She says, and he rolls on his side. His hair was starting to grow back but very slowly.
"Fine, oh and Ace spewed all through the bathroom,” he says.
"Well, when you're done out here you can both go clean it,” she says.
"I didn't do it,” he says. She raises an eyebrow at him and Tyson huffs before nodding his head and sulking.
