Iris POV.
I don’t like the new guy, I don’t like him at all, he’s taking the attention of all of the guys, especially the twinsies, they are mine not his, I tried to get Nicky’s attention most of the night, but that didn’t work well enough. Until I decided to throw my peas, one by one at him, to get his full attention, he turned to me with a glare, but he didn’t scare me at all.
“What’s that for kitten?” Nicholas asks me, but I just shrug at him, I just want his attention.
“Eat your greens, don’t throw them,” Nathaniel says, now they’re paying me attention, not the type of attention I wanted, which only made me whine even more.
“I done,” I say trying to get off the chair, taking my Mathew with me, he’s better than the big Mathew anyway.
I went to hide under the sofa, my favourite hiding place, I heard the rest fuss over the new guy, over Seth, he had so much fun, he did this, he did that, but no one asked me what my life in hell used to be, how it used to be, and what it’s like now. I was just hiding the whole time, until I started to get sleepy, yawning, it’s all papa’s fault, he used to have me in bed early every night, he did that to be able to run his kingdom while I sleep, they have a tone of parties while I’m asleep. But when I’m awake I get to play around, and I do wake up real early, I had a morning nanny to catch me the second I run out of papa’s room and run toward hell ready to cause chaos.
“Iris,” Nathaniel or maybe Nicholas calls me, but I don’t answer, I’m mad at them for selling me off for the new stranger.
“She’s hiding,” the other twin answer him, of course, I’m hiding, I’m not wanted around here, why are they even keeping me around, they could just send me back to hell where I belong.
“I’ll take care of her,” Zane says going down on his knees to get me, he’s the one who usually put me to bed.
“Ahh sweetie, since the day we had you, we’ve had to up our cleaning game,” he says with a chuckle pulling me up in his arms.
“She’s not a real cat, why does she act like it?” Seth the new guy asks why does he care?
“She is a kitten, she’s half cat, which means she acts just like one,” Zane explains kissing the top of my head as I growled at him, just like Mathew taught me.
“Come on little lion, let’s go get you your bottle,” he says taking me toward the kitchen and getting a bottle ready for me as I laid my head against his shoulder, I’m tired, but tomorrow I’m going to get to the bottom of this new guy’s situation.
He took me to my bed now, he got me changed, ready, cuddled, fed and finally put to bed to sleep along with my new stuffies, half of them were in my bed right now.
“Mathew, Mathew,” I called to him when the sun came up, and the loud scary birdy is starting to scream, I was worried he’d come near me, and I was too scared to get out of my bed alone until Mathew came and picked me up.
“What’s wrong?” he asks me.
“You like me?” I ask him, does he like me? Does he just like the other guy now?
“Like you? I think I might love you little thing,” he says pulling us toward his bed now, putting me under his blanket, where it’s much warmer here.
“And the other guy? Seth, Blahhh,” I say sticking my tongue out with disgust.
“Seth is my nephew, I do love him as well, but you’re my little one,” he says, but I don’t like this either.
“We go play?” I ask him, I wasn’t sleepy anymore, I want to get up, to go out, I like out now, I love playing there and causing havoc.
“Yes, we’ll go, let me change you first and get my coffee,” he groans making me giggle, while he was so lazy getting up from his bed, dressing me in my clothes and changing me to clean diapee and finally getting ready himself.
“Nu, nu, Mathew,” I say dropping my grumpy octopus.
“Here you go kitten, what do you say?” he asks me.
“Thank you,” I say.
“Good kitten!” he says holding me with both hands as I started to mumble on his hand and shirt.
“You’re hungry? Aren’t you?” he says with a chuckle taking me toward the kitchen where Seth was there, I growled at him right away, I don’t like him.
