Chapter 1 - Milkshake
Feat. Ezra and Jaxon
Scene 1: Felinophile
Ezra's POV
I couldn't believe my ears when my dad said yes to getting a cat. It was like a dream come true. I had mentioned how I actually owned a cat before I evolved which made my dad quick to offer me some money for a 'replacement'. Granted, we'd have to be wary about Uncle Klaus since he's part werewolf, but I'm sure the cat will warm up to him once they get used to each other.
My Uncle Kol had driven me to the local pet store and in his exuberance he almost ran over a pedestrian.
He told me he'd be more careful, but I just shrugged my shoulders and looked out the window. Being a vampire for so long has made me apathetic towards human life. Uncle Kol took notice of this as we pulled into a parking spot at Happy Paws. He didn't question me, however, as I opened the passenger side door and got out. Soon, my Uncle Kol and I were strolling through the front door, and I immediately went over to the cat section.
Kol's POV
When Ezra and I entered the quaint shop my niece instantly left my side heading over to her desired section of the store. I just chuckled, amusement shining in my eyes, as I watched her interact with the feline species. I made my way over to see if she had grown attached to any of them yet. It seemed she was still looking, so I casually glanced around taking a look at the cats myself. It wasn't even a second later that Ezra and I laid eyes on the newest member of our family.
Klaus' POV
If there was one downside to being a werewolf/vampire hybrid it'd have to be the instinct to hate cats. Fortunately, this was never a problem... Until now.
Ezra's POV
When Uncle Kol and I arrived back home I was absolutely jubilant. I had just adopted a feline friend that would now serve as the child I'm not able to have. To say Jaxon was excited would be an understatement. He once mentioned that he was allergic to cats before he evolved which sucked because he had always wanted one. So, now that there is a cat about to be welcomed into the family, well, Jaxon had a hard time wiping the grin off his face.
The only person who didn't seem too happy about Milkshake's arrival was Uncle Klaus.
A Couple Hours Later
Jaxon's POV
"Come here, Milkshake! Dinner time!" When I announced this the 2 year old Snowshoe cat that Ezra and I have grown to adore came skidding into the dining hall at full speed.
This caused Ezra and I to laugh as I set down the sleek, black bowl with Milkshake's name on it on the floor next to a matching bowl filled with water.
"Good girl, Milkshake." Ezra praised as she bent down to pet the cat's head.
3rd Person POV
A few minutes later everyone was settled down at the dinner table. Once it seemed everyone had their plates the Mikaelson family dug in and enjoyed their meal. Though, it wasn't until Milkshake decided to jump up on Klaus' lap and settle there that the family was actually deemed whole.
Kol couldn't help but tease his brother. "Look at that! Milkshake made friends with the dog!"
Everyone laughed at the statement, but what surprised them most was Klaus' little chuckle and endearing comment towards the cat. "Well, dogs don't know what they're missing out on."
