'How did it come to this?'

That's what you asked yourself every morning as you awake in a household of screaming owl royalties. You sighed, sitting up in the hard, cold bed all servants sleep in. You swung your feet over the edge of the bed, your head throbbing, though you weren't sure why, and the screaming coming from the kitchen wasn't helping any

"You cheating fuck!" Stolas' 'wife' shouted, her voice soon followed by the sound of plates and platters shattering. You weren't in a rush to get up, knowing, that it was going to be you who had to pick up the mess they left. You rubbed your eyes, yawning before you heard a bell ringing. You looked to your right, seeing a small, golden bell hanging from a hole in the ceiling. Stolas installed it so he could summon you without harming his vocal cords.

You stood up, stripping off your sleeping clothes and quickly putting on a uniform, fixing your bed before impetuously going up the stairs, pushing open the door and rushing into the kitchen, bowing to Stolas and his wife

"Who the hell is this?!" she shrieked, pointing at you accusingly. "Are you cheating on me with this imp?!"

Stolas sighed before responding "This," he motioned to you, speaking in a calm voice "is the household servant, which you agreed to buy." He glanced down at you with red eyes that reflected the anger that made his heart pound inside his feathery chest

"What are they doing here?!" she shrieked. You grew tired of her voice immediately.

"Cleaning up this mess," Stolas said, motioning to the mess of splattered food and coffee on the walls, floor, and even ceiling, and piles upon piles of shattered plates and cups. As you began to clean, Octavia - Stolas' teenage daughter - came into the room, earbuds in, and phone glowing. She stepped on your foot as you were cleaning, and you winced, You paused as she stared down at you with red eyes before leaving you with arguing Stolas and his very annoying wife.
