As Nyx closed her eyes, she seemed to have heard a kitten’s meow, which was so subtle that she rubbed her ears, thinking she was hearing voices, and then went back to sleep. 

Yet, the meow continued. Finally, she sat up, walked to the window, opened it, and looked out–Cotton Candy was sitting on the windowsill, looking at her eagerly. 

He meowed again, and Nyx’s expression changed drastically: She was so glad that she wasn’t asleep and came to take a look because she was worried, or the silly little kitten would have been left out all night. 

It wasn’t winter, and the weather was warm enough. Still, leaving Cotton Candy here alone all right would break her heart. She reached out and took him inside at once. 

He snuggled up to her, not struggling at all. He was too docile to be a stray cat, and she figured he was probably once a pet cat, which was why he was so clingy. 

Given how smart he was, he didn’t run away from his home; instead, he was abandoned. Feeling sorry for him, she stroked the clump of dark hair on his forehead and asked him again, “Wanna stay with me?” 

She really wanted to keep him as her pet. In fact, she had always wanted to raise a pet, but under her family’s control since childhood, she couldn’t even manage to live on her own, let alone have a pet. 

Those were memories to forget; no matter what, her life was perfect now, and she could finally have a pet. She’d treat him very well. 

Cotton Candy seemed to sense her mixed emotions. He looked up at her sad face and sensibly rubbed her profile, meowing to comfort her. 

Soon, she was in a better mood and smiled while tapping his nose, “You can’t talk; I’ll take your response as a yes then. From now on, you’ll be mine. How about a bath? Then I’ll fix you something to eat.” 

She happily went to the bathroom at a brisk pace with him in her arms, thinking that she should later check whether she needed to vaccinate and apply for a pet license on this planet. 

It was common knowledge that cats hated water, and every cat owner had an uphill battle bathing their cat. Bracing herself, she carefully put him into the basin with warm water, prepared to get wet in the next second. 

However, he was so well–behaved and even raised his face so that she could rub and clean him more easily. When she rinsed him, he didn’t struggle and faced the water fearlessly instead. 

Cats were afraid of water, but not tigers. As the strongest type of big cats, tigers even liked water and were great swimmers; they loved soaking in water to cool down in the hot season. 

And of course, the Crown Prince–the White Tiger, the Divine Beast wasn’t fear of water. Besides, even if he was out of control and had no human reason, he was far more composed than other beasts. 

When he was out on his own, he was just as stable as he was before he lost control, very much the king of beasts. He’d only turn into a meek, delicate kitten when he was with the one he adored. 

Nyx didn’t get it. How could anyone give up such a cute, sweet kitten? Not to mention that after the bath, he was now completely clean. She dried his white hair, which was fluffy and soft, making him look now bigger. 

He sat upright, looking all serious. Coupled with the clump of dark hair on his forehead, Nyx felt her heart would melt at

any second; he looked like such a bluffing little tiger cub.

She sighed sadly as she recalled the giant white tiger in her dream, thinking, ‘If only Candy could turn into that big tiger. I’ve never seen a tiger in real life; the tiger is so big, and I bet it feels great to pet him! 

Suddenly, Cotton Candy meowed, which brought her back to reality. Looking into his innocent eyes, she couldn’t help but smile, thinking, ‘Forget it. Candy is cute enough already. Who cares if he can be a tiger or not?‘ 

Holding the sweet, fluffy Cotton Candy in her arms, she decided to take him to the kitchen for food. Suddenly, the Intelligent Brain beeped; Theon sent her a request for a video chat. 

She accepted the request and raised Cotton Candy’s paws for him to see. “Look, Theon. I’ve got a cat! Isn’t he adorable?” 

Theon had been busy since arriving at the base, and this was his first video call with Nyx, so he was very nervous. He sat upright and cleared his throat, about to greet Nyx when the call came through. 

Yet, he was caught off guard by the fluffy kitten on the screen; all the words he had prepared to say to her were down the drain, and he didn’t know how to respond for a moment. 

The chief culprit, however, had no idea the predicament she had left him and poked her head out, whispering, “Can I raise him at your place?” 

Of course, Theon nodded at once. Seeing this, she was relieved and asked him about how he had been doing these days. while continuing to walk to the kitchen with Cotton Candy in her arms. 

Theon had never felt so clumsy. Looking at her, his beloved Young Female, he wanted to bring up some interesting topics, but nothing came out. In addition to the silent Males in the barracks were mechanical weapons and a variety of boring paperwork reports. 

“Where did you buy the cat?” after a moment of silence, he asked. It looked like an expensive cat, and given that Nyx held it so carefully, she must have liked it a lot. He figured any topic related to it would pique her interest. 

Sure enough, she smiled brightly. Beaming, she shook her head. “I didn’t buy him.” She couldn’t help but tell him everything beginning from the encounter on the swing to the surprise on the windowsill earlier. 

Soon, Zayne noticed the commotion in the kitchen and came inside. After nodding casually at Theon, he looked at Cotton Candy in Nyx’s arms. His gaze met Cotton Candy’s, both hostile, almost turning the kitchen into a battlefield. 

Nyx pinched Cotton Candy’s face playfully and stood between them, blocking their gazes. “Enough. We’re all family; no more fighting from now on.” 

Cotton Candy reluctantly meowed and then curled up in her arms without showing any intention of attacking, determined to be good in front of her. But… he wouldn’t promise that he’d still be this civil when with annoying people when she wasn’t looking. 

Meanwhile, Zayne was pondering whether he should come up with some excuse to get rid of Cotton Candy. He sneered and said to Theon, “Don’t you think it’s time to strengthen your places security system?” 

Refusing to take the blame, Theon frowned, “The villa, including the courtyard, comes with S–level security; it’s already the highest level available to individuals except the royal family and high authorities. The fact that the cat got in here means it’s just an ordinary animal.” 

Beastmer’s beast form was different from ordinary animals; there were significant differences in the values of their physical functions, which could be detected with a scan of the security system.
