Our Owlets (Book 1)

21. Never Mess with Celeste

While Blitzø and his employees were out working, Stolas was busy catching up on royal duties that he'd miss. So he instructed a maid to handle Celeste since Cosmos was very clingy with him.

Celeste...is a whole different story.

"Princess Celeste, get down before you hurt yourself!" A maid held out her hands.

Celeste was calmly sitting in a tree, swinging her legs. "Do I look like I'm gonna hurt myself?"

The maid scratched her head. "I mean...you are an owl so I guess it wouldn't-"

"HALF owl. Can't forget my imp side!" Celeste hung upside down.

"Well your owl side is more accepted than the imp one."

Celeste paused from the swinging and climbed back on the branch. "What do you mean by that?"

"Well...your father's side is the lowest ranking in hell. Your mother's being very high."

"So because my daddy is an imp, my mommy can't love him? What type of earth logic is that?"

"I'm just saying! Your mother's ranking and your father's will never mingle!"

"Is that why me and my brother was born? Is that why my daddy protects us? Is that why he sacrificed himself for us? Is that why my mommy was so sad and hurt that daddy sacrificed himself? Is that why mommy agreed to marry him?" Celeste said with a blank face.

The maid scoffed. "I mean the prince didn't have a choice. He was pregnant!"

"Why is my parents relationship any problem to you?"

"Because a Goetia married an imp! You're a..."

"Owl and an imp. I'm a mixed species."

"And it's wrong!"

"How and why."

The maid looked at the ground and thought for a while.

Celeste stood up on the branch. "So mommy was right. You pompous snobby pricks are purely racist. I've seen your kind on earth. All you do is judge people based on appearances. So what if mommy married an imp? How is it affecting anyone's daily lives?"

"W-well-" The maid stuttered.

"Imps took my mommy in when they were on the run. Imps offered to be our grandparents regardless of what species we were. Imps were super nice to mommy regardless if he was a Goetia or not. But you snobby people are so far up your own butts, you don't see anything wrong with how you treat imps. We're people too." Celeste said.

The maid looked at the little princess in shock.

"Maybe if you'd treat imps better, they wouldn't have such a bad rep. My daddy loves my mommy."

"But he's a imp! The prince couldn't have married a noble? Stay married to Princess Estelle? Marry Prince Nebula?"

"Didn't that Nebula guy hurt mommy while that snobby uptight, sad excuse for a mother watched?" Celeste asked, immediately shutting the maid up. "Grow up. Mommy's happy with daddy. We're here, we're royal now, and we have a new baby brother or sister on the way!"

The maid huffed in protest. "Just come on, hybrid- OW!"

"Hybrid this diii!" Celeste started yeeting peaches at the maid.

"Stop it, you little brat! Come down here!"

Celeste flipped her off before leaping to another tree. She spotted someone coming over to the garden and grinned. Stolas, Cosmos and Blitzø were coming over to them.

If you knew anything about Celeste, you knew that she mastered the art of framing people.

"Come here, you little disgrace!" The maid grabbed her off the branch.

Showtime.

Celeste frowned and started crying. "You're a meanie!"

"Oh don't try it, you little hybrid! You're a little parasite that needs to be thrown in the trash!" The maid spat.

"What the fuck?" Blitzø raised an eyebrow.

"Mommy! Daddy! Bubba!" Celeste whined.

Stolas glared daggers into the maids soul. "Violet, let our daughter go right now."

Violet quickly obeyed, dropping Celeste on the ground with zero hesitation.

Celeste ran over and jumped into Blitzø's arms. "She was so mean to me! She called me a hybrid and that mommy didn't deserve you! She even said that my owl side was the only accepted one...why don't people like my imp side?"

"You told our daughter, that bullshit?" Blitzø rubbed the little ones back.

"W-what?! No! She's lying your highness, I've never said such a thing!" Violet said.

Celeste replayed the audio of what the maid said with a devious grin.

Stolas and Blitzø glared at the maid so hard, that she paled a little.

But she managed to glare at the little princess.

Fatal move.

Celeste had some bruises from wrestling her stuffed animals this morning and Blitzø happened to see them.

"Celeste, what happened to your arms?!" Blitzø asked.

Celeste looked at the bruises and began to smirk internally. She pointed to Violet. "She kept putting me in trees to fall!"

"WHAT?! You lying little shit! You're an owl! You can sit in trees!" Violet snapped.

Stolas took a few steps towards the maid. "First of all, she's half imp. Secondly, I'm pacifist. But I make an exception for my kids."

Violet gulped. "P-prince Stolas, I didn't do it! I swear!"

Cosmos quickly covered his eyes while Celeste recorded the scene of her mother eating the maid alive.

Stolas belched loudly. "Excuse me."

"Our baby is gonna be a cannibal.." Blitzø laughed.

"If I ate an owl, yes." Stolas walked by. "So I ate an imp."

"Wah??" Blitzø blinked several times.

Stolas chuckled. "I'm kidding Blitzy. She was a sinner that snuck here."

"Well that bitch deserves to be eaten alive." Blitzø followed his husband.
