Mathew POV. 'Alpha,' I woke up to Nicholas's voice, I groaned and turned to the other side ready to get some more sleep. 'Alpha, alphaaaa, alphhaaa!' Nathaniel adds, I groaned, their whining sounds just like they are right here in the room with me, while they are whining via the bond. 'Get back to sleep,' I say through the bond. 'The kitten got something to ask you,' Nathaniel says that got me to sit up in my bed looking around for the kitten, but she's not in my room, but I still sat up looking for her, I'm acting like a pathetic child instead of an alpha. 'What does she want?' I ask them, I tried to sound grumpy and tired, but instead, I wanted to know what she wanted from me. Is she ready to get in her room next to me, is she ready to stop being a brat? Would she ever allow me to hold her like Zane and the twins does, she did decorate my pizza yesterday with a smiley face, except she made it upside down, she clearly wanted to tell me that I'm grumpy. 'She, we...Zane! Wake up!
Iris POV. The hoodie they got over me was very comfortable, hiding most of me and keeping me warm, I didn't tell them, but I'm cold most days, it's really cold around here, I'm only warm when I curl up on myself and nap in my hiding places. "You can pick all the stuffies you want," Zane says, letting me go and buy everything I want, I missed having so many stuffies like back at home, although all of mine were put away in another room, papa didn't allow me to put them in bed with us."You want this one? It looks like Mathew when angry," Nathaniel says holding up an angry octopus, making me giggle, it did look like grumpy Mathew. "He grumpy," I say making them all laugh, I added my new octopus whose name is Mathew starting now, to the cart. Next, I picked some more toys, dragons, animals, and stories for me, I don't know who would read them to me, but I got them right now, I'll think about it later, for now, I'm just happy to be able to pick things I like, not just receiving them, I
Iris POV. After our shopping for me and my yummy food, we were back home, and I want to play with all of my toys, the bags were all filled with things just for me, ones that I picked. I sat on the floor in the living room and started to open my bags checking everything we got for me. "The toys need to go into your room," Mathew says as I keep on picking them out. "Nu," I answer him with a pout, I want to keep my toys here and play with them. "Let her keep them here alpha, we need to finish getting her room ready," Nathaniel says, leaving me to have my toys for now. "Look," I tell the meanie alpha holding the angry octopus up, now that I had his attention. "Yeah?" he says. "This is Mathew, the gwumpy octopus," I inform him. "I'm honoured," he says shaking his head at me, I just shrug, he's not fun anymore when he doesn't get really mad at me and calls me a brat. I kept taking my toys out playing with them, I didn't know how much I missed my toys until I got them back, I kept on
Mathew POV. She's sleeping in her own real bed for three nights now, but tonight wasn't her best, tonight the little kitten was off, something was off with her, I left my bed and went to hers, I found her turning around, she had thrown all of her toys down on the ground, quiet cries can be heard from under her blanket, maybe she's cold, maybe Zane forgot to feed her the bottle before bed, or maybe she needs a change. "Iris?" I say turning the light on, and walking into the room, she froze when she heard my voice, I expected some hissing from her side, when I lifted the blanket up and was met with her red teary eyes, her nose was stuffed and she didn't look like a happy kitten at all. "Hey, what's wrong?" I ask her, sitting down next to her, instead of pushing me off and demanding the boys to be over, instead, she allowed me to sit next to her. "My tummy huwt," she says pointing to her stomach, it hurt? I didn't know what to do, I pulled her into my lap then, petting her back as sh
Iris POV. "He's a meanie," I tell Mathew did he train that rooster or something? He's really evil, he tried to eat me. "He is, but you are a strong kitten, aren't you, can you show me your scary face?" he asks me, I nod and try my best. "Grr," I say copying how he growls. "More baby, show your teeth," he says showing me how he does his growl, I copied him until I could do it, I'm a scary kitten. "That's my girl," he says making me smile, I used to be afraid of Mathew and now he's the one keeping me safe and letting me sleep in his bed where it was warm. "Where's Zane?" I ask him my tail moving lazily now, we've been playing outside for hours now, I helped him feed most of the animals, and although he got people to do it, he still helped and introduced me to all of them, saying to allow me to help whenever I'm out here. "Zane went to get someone really special," he says, did he went to get Cici? Or maybe papa! "He getting papa?" I ask him my head tilting. "Papa?" he asks confu
Zane POV. "Hey little man," I say hugging our last family member Seth, he might be an adult in human age, but in wolf words, he's just a puppy, people like us who live close to forever, we take our sweet and long time before we mature or become adults. "Uncle Zane, I'm not little anymore," he says with a big pout, he's been away through the whole summer, he's spending time with his human mother, and his human family, but it's time to get back home, even with him having human genes in him, he's still a wolf who needs to spend time with the pack and bond with us. "Sure, sure, get in the car," I say getting in the car, I had to drive all the way toward the town to bring his bum back home, although he thinks he's big now and can drive, we don't allow him to, we prefer to keep him under our supervision as much as possible. "Did you have fun," I ask him, he's been away for the whole summer, away at the time that the accident happened, he didn't know about hearts being broken, but now we
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 n
Iris POV. "Breakfast," Nathaniel says offering me a princess plate filled with eggs and bacon, along with my small new fork, I started to eat right away, I was hungry. After my food was done, along with my juice, glares were sent toward Seth's way, and now I'm ready to run off and start playing, I waited for Mathew to clean me up when he was done, I was ready to run out. "Nicky, help," I came back to the living room, my boots in my hand with a big pout on my face, but he wasn't there, I need help with my boots, I can't put them on alone, they are hard. "Uncle Nicholas, isn't here," Seth guy says looking at me up from his phone, I only hissed at him and kept walking, going toward the bedrooms to get one of the guys to help me. "No shoes is allowed inside," the Seth guy says, but I only hiss at him starting the walk there, he got off the sofa, and walked toward me. "Hey, idiot! It's the house's rule, no shoes are allowed inside," he yells at me, snapping the shoes out of my hands.
A COUPLE OF YEARS LATER. Seth POV. "Uncle, I'm big boy, I promise," I assure my uncle Mathew, he was always my father figure, always there for me, but sometimes I just want to be big and get away from them. "I'm not sure," uncle Mathew says. "Pleaaaaaassseeee!" I beg with him, I can't believe I'm begging him for this, but I'm, I'm begging to be allowed to go to high school. A wolf pup means I take forever to grow up, and that means I take a long time to be allowed to go off to high school, and after so many years of being homeschooled and trained, I finally got the chance to get to a real school. "Fine, you can go, but..." he says, the but is if I don't feel good if I get overwhelmed I have to call them right away to come and get me, I can't stay the whole day, and if I feel like wolfing someone's head off, I can't do it. "Okay, okay! Promise!" I assure him, knowing all the rules already, he just nods his head yes, I finally get to go to a real school. Uncle Nathaniel helped m
Iris POV. "The lord wants to see you, his brat, been away for so long and you're still his favourite," a demon says coming in to call me, I hissed at him, I hate the demons, the evil ones, where are my old nannies? "And don't you forget it," I say with sass before leaving the room, dragging Seth with me, I don't trust anyone with my friend, I'm under Lucifer's protection, but Seth, he's open game for all the bored demons. "Iris," Seth says walking after me, he's scared, but he can't be scared, I kept my hold on his hand. "Don't worry, daddy is getting us," I whisper to him. "How?" he asks me, he's sounding very hopeful. "Don't worry," I assure him, I have no idea how or where, but they'll get us, I know that much. "Iris," papa starts then look at my friend with disgust, he doesn't like him much, but I don't mind, I just shrug, I'm mad at him. "Meanie papa," I answer him. "I'm not meanie, I missed you, and you were gone with the wolves," he says, but I just shrug, he could hav
Mathew POV. She was just here in front of us, and next she disappeared from our house, from our living room, she was under the protection of the kings of the wolves species and still, she disappeared. To say I have lost it would be a small word, I went crazy, I yelled I screamed, and my wolf form came on its own to provide comfort, and protection, for me. I roared, I smashed most of the room, I almost broke it down, but then my brothers had to calm me down, they had to pull me back to reality, this isn't the witch incident all over again, this was Iris, our kitten, she wouldn't betray us, she's just playing. "Just calm down alpha, I promise Iris is fine, we'll get her back," Zane says, he's my beta, I trust him, I do calm down, I forced my wolf side to step to the side, letting the human part of me take over, I can take care of this one. "How did she just disappear?" I ask them now, looking at them, we were all there, looking at her play with Seth, and then nothing, she disappeare
Iris POV. "PAPA!" I yell and run to hug him, he scooped me up in his arms, it felt so familiar, being in his arms, sitting in his lap in the throne room, the demons standing in his throne room. Everything was just like I left it, except for a guy standing there, with his brown hair and green eyes, he wasn't a demon, not even close to being one, instead standing there was Seth, what is he doing here? "Seth," I say my eyes going wild, looking at him. "Iris, what are we doing here? Where are we?" he asks me, he's never been to hell, doesn't he recognize his kind. "We're...in my old home," I say wanting him to guess where we are on his own. "Iris, your home is with my uncles, with alpha king Mathew," he says, he's right, that's my home, but this still is mine as well. "Your king stole my heart, but he clearly didn't know how to deal with her or keep her safe, she belonsg to me, always have and always would," papa says, I'm his heart, he told me that before he sent me to the sad wolv
Iris POV. Seth wasn't that good of a babysitter, he was really bad at it, but I didn't say anything, and my daddies are taking too long to come back, and I'm super worried about them, what if they aren't safe, what if Liam hurt them, I need to get back up. "Seth," I say, to my lousy babysitter. "Yes?" he says his eyes locked on the window, I could slip out of the room without him noticing at all. "Me need the bathroom," I lied, I don't use the bathroom, but he doesn't know that. "Okay," he says nodding, I took off the room, and ran toward the office where he told me the phone that could call hell is, papa would know what to do about this, how to save my daddies. I started to search through the desk, I know this room very well, I spend a lot of time in this office, over my shelf, but I know there where things are. I soon found the tablet, it's similar to the one we had in hell, the one papa used, and I stole it a couple of times to play with it, no matter how many times papa sco
Iris POV. "Oh my god alpha, can I borrow her," the woman who's been playing peekaboo with me for the last fifteen minutes, after she gave me gummies says, I didn't mind spending time with the woman either, she's nice. "She's mine Casy," daddy answers her, trying to steal one of my gummies, but I slapped his hand away, the gummies were all mine. "Share alpha, have some mercy," Casy whines, making me giggle, even more, it's fun around here, especially when I get to tease daddy. "All mine!" daddy says hugging me tighter, I never got to be in a position like this, so close to him warm, and happy! "Let's go kitten," he says seeing that Casy isn't letting me go, we left the house only to be stopped by a giant man, who was shirtless, I'm freezing cold, and he's shirtless, the wolves are some crazy people. "Let's welcome our guests," daddy says, while all I wanted to do was get away from them and hide, but I'm stuck until he lets me go. "Liam," daddy Mathew says in a cold voice seeing
Mathew POV. "I nu like winter," the baby kitten whines, it's not even winter anymore, most of the hard storms have passed, with her hidden either in my arms or under the bed, or above the fridge, the one thing I never expected to ban or say out loud, you're not allowed to get on top of the fridge. "The winter is almost over, you can go outside to play," I encourage her, first I was trying my best to get her inside the house, but now I'm trying to get her out of the house. "I stay in with daddy," she says hugging me tight, she had one of us at the house the whole winter, even her and Seth are finally getting along for once, maybe it's the movies they share, and the popcorn. "But daddy needs to get out," I tell her, I didn't really need to, but I wanted to get her out of the house, even for a little bit. "Me stay," she says but her hands were still hugging me tight, she doesn't want to let me go. "No one is staying in the house," I say out loud as at the same time I was connecting
Iris POV. "It's cold," I whined to Seth who was too happy to run around the white thingy, but he told me to come closer, that it's fun to play in the snow. I touched the freezing cold ice and then throw it back down on the ground, it was too cold, and it hurt, but Seth was busy laughing and playing with it, he was too happy, that's the first time I saw him this happy."Seth it's cold," I whine with a big pout, I want daddy to come over here and hold me, any one of them, just to hold me and make me feel warm again, instead I'm freezing here. "It's supposed to be cold, do this," he says getting some cold ice off the ground, making it into a ball and throwing it off next to me, I hissed at him right away. "I didn't hit you," he yells, but I hiss again, getting some snow off the ground and throwing it at him, hitting him in the chest now I giggled, it was fun. "Careful not to fall you, idiot, let's make a snowman," he says, I'm not an idiot, I glared at him. "Me no idiot, you idiot,
Iris POV. "Can I go out?" I ask daddy Mathew, the door was strangely locked, and I already have my shoes on and was ready to go. "No," he says making me frown. "Why not?" I ask him angrily, I started to pull on his sleeve until he gave me his full attention. "Me go out," I say again pointing to the window, I want to go there. "I heard you princess and I said no," he says again the same wrong word. "Nu-uh, me go out," I say in a firm voice. "You stay in with me," he says hugging me tighter toward his chest. "Nu-nu, go check on Summer," I say he loves his horse that would be a good excuse for me to leave the house and play outside. "Summer is okay and warm, and I should keep you as warm," he says pulling my hoodie up, Zane has been dressing me in layers even inside the house, keeping me warm at all times. "Me is warm," I assure him, we could leave the house, I'm fully dressed, even got my shoes. "You'll be freezing outside," he tells me but I shook my head no, I won't."Nu-nu
