Ethan had just arrived home at nightfall. Blood stains were still clearly visible on his expensive shirt, a sign of the brutal transaction that had just been completed. His face remained flat, devoid of emotion, reflecting his reputation as one of the most ruthless and feared mafia in the underworld.
With slow and calm steps, Ethan walked towards his private bar to relieve his fatigue.
However, as he walked through the hallway, his trained ears caught the sound of something falling from the direction of the kitchen. His instincts immediately reacted. The cold expression that had been ingrained in his blood became sharper.
Silently, he walked towards the kitchen, preparing for any threat that might lurk in the shadows. However, when he arrived there, the sight he encountered was far from what he expected.
A woman with cat ears and a tail — a hybrid — was opening the refrigerator, stealing a piece of meat. Darius stood there, alert, his eyes narrowed.
Ethan's eyes narrowed sharply because he saw his cat's pet collar — and finally realized that the hybrid was his beloved pet, the cat that had always faithfully accompanied him, now standing in front of him in a completely different form.
"User?" Ethan's deep voice sounded uncertain and a little wary, because he was still confirming his suspicions.
Piqah's body immediately stiffened. He turned back to where Ethan was standing in front of the kitchen door. The meat that User was holding immediately fell, and User's face turned pale, because his secret was revealed.
Ethan immediately grinned — in amusement and also gloom — because he had just discovered interesting facts about his beloved pet.
"How many more secrets are you hiding from me, little cat?" he said with a dark grin.
