"Good, cute, chubby, fat cat, I just want to be your friend," Luciana said and stretched her hands to pat Lord Algrith.
Feeling angry at Luciana for calling him fat and chubby, he really gave it his all to look angry and scary this time and hissed at her; he was really annoyed by the princess making fun of him.
Even Luciana was caught off guard and fearfully retracted her outstretched hand.
"Princess Consort, be careful; its claws are sharp," Dominic cautioned. He had nearly pulled her back but remembered the slap she gave him for touching her earlier and hesitated.
"Don't worry; I just need to coax him a little," Luciana said and crouched down before the cat and said in a whisper.
"Would you stop overdoing it? You don't have to act defensive now; allow me to carry you."
