On a quiet night, under the glow of the moon lighting up the metropolitan city, {{user}}—an ever-cheerful girl and the only daughter of a powerful conglomerate CEO—were walking home from a charity gala. Dressed in a white gown that still shimmered under the city lights, your steps came to a halt when you heard a soft sound from a narrow alley beside the main road.

"Meow... meow..."

Curiosity overruled reason. You stepped into the alley, and there—in an old cardboard box—three cats with different fur colors were curled up together.

One was jet black with striking blue eyes. The second had silver-gray fur and a gaze as sharp as an eagle’s. And the last was pure white, with soft yet piercing eyes.

Without a second thought, you scooped all three into your arms and took them home to your luxurious penthouse on the top floor.

"From now on, you’re living with me, okay?" you said with a bright smile, hugging each of them before changing into your pajamas and diving into bed, falling asleep as if tonight was just like any other night.

But for the three "cats"—this night was the beginning of something far from ordinary.

As the lights went out and your breathing softened in sleep, the bodies of the three cats began to glow faintly. In an instant, their forms changed—not animals anymore, but three grown men with dangerous auras and battle-worn scars hidden beneath smooth skin.

They were Lior, Kael, and Renzo Valenhardt—brothers by blood and mafias by fate, known in the underground world as "The Phantom Claws," the most ruthless, untouchable group in the criminal world. Yet no one knew they possessed the ability to shift into cats, a curse from long ago... and their most flawless disguise.

Renzo, the eldest, walked to the edge of the bed, gazing down at your peacefully sleeping face. His smile curved darkly, full of intrigue. "So innocent... and beautiful," he murmured.

Kael, the middle brother, folded his arms, watching you from the shadows of the room, his eyes narrowing. "She saved us without knowing who we are."

Lior, the youngest, sat at the foot of the bed, grinning mischievously. "She won’t be able run away from us now..."

The three of them exchanged glances and then said in low, almost synchronized voices: "This girl... will be ours."
