Chapter 163: Chapter 163 Benjamin true face
"Hmm... wake up, little female." Damon murmured, propping his head up with his hands as he gazed at Kyra sleeping.
She stirred and slowly opened her eyes, blinking in the morning light filtering through the curtains. "Stop looking at me like a creep." she mumbled, her voice still groggy from sleep.
Damon chuckled softly. "I am," he admitted with a playful smirk.
Kyra furrowed her brows, not entirely awake yet. "What?"
"Nothing," Damon replied, his smile widening. He enjoyed these moments, teasing her gently, even if she often found it annoying. There was something about her disheveled morning appearance that made her even more endearing to him.
Rubbing her eyes, Kyra finally sat up, stretching her arms above her head. "What time is it?"
Damon looked room clock. "Early enough. I made breakfast downstairs if you’re hungry," he offered, already knowing she’d likely decline.
Kyra nodded, appreciating his gesture. "Thanks, Damon." She swung her legs off the bed and stood up.
After breakfast, Damon stood before Kyra, his eyes focused and serious. "I’m leaving," he announced, his gaze locking with hers. 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
Kyra felt a tremor of uncertainty under his intense stare. "Take care," she replied softly. Then, gathering her courage, she added, "Please find my mates safely, Damon. Their names are Vincent and Lucas."
Upon hearing their names, Damon’s heart tightened in his chest, though he managed a strained smile. "Of course," he assured her. "But remember what you have to do," he added, his eyes searching hers for understanding.
Kyra nodded solemnly.
"I will," she affirmed, her voice steady.
"Don’t worry. I’ll send Benjamin here to look after you." Damon promised, breaking their gaze reluctantly. With one last look at Kyra, he turned and left the house.
Kyra watched him go, a mix of emotions swirling inside her.
She sighed, then walked over to the window, staring out at the snowy landscape beyond. The quiet of the morning enveloped her, broken only by the crackling of the fire in the fireplace.

Knock knock
Hearing a knock, Kyra opened the door and saw Benjamin standing there. "Hello, female," he said, smiling politely.
"Hi," Kyra replied. "Please sit, don’t stand, Benjamin."
As Benjamin sat on the sofa, he looked at her, trying to hide his awkwardness. However, when he noticed what Kyra was wearing, his eyes darkened. His gentle expression shifted into something darker and more intense.
"Haha! Finally, Damon left," Benjamin laughed, his eyes gleaming with a new intensity as he looked at her.
"What do you mean?" Kyra shifted uncomfortably in her seat, sensing the shift in his aura. He no longer looked as gentle as when she first saw him.
"Hmm! He thinks after what happened, I would still care about him or take care of his female." Benjamin laughed evilly as he walked closer to her, his expression turning furious.
Seeing him approaching, Kyra’s expression darkened. Benjamin stepped even closer, his face filled with hatred.
The mask of gentleness he wore had fallen away, revealing the ugly emotions beneath.
"What are you talking about?" Kyra demanded, trying to keep her voice steady. She backed away, but Benjamin continued to advance.
"You have no idea, do you?" he sneered. "Damon thinks he can just waltz back into my life and ruin everything. He thinks I don’t know what he’s up to."
Kyra’s heart pounded as she looked for an escape route. "I don’t understand. Why are you doing this?"
Benjamin’s eyes glinted with malice as he reached out to grab her neck. "If I kill you, everything will get better. I can take my revenge on him. He really thinks I’m still the good beast I used to be."
At that moment, the door burst open. Damon, in his human form, filled the doorway, his eyes blazing with fury. He had sensed something was wrong and returned just in time.
"Step away from her, Benjamin." Damon growled, his voice echoing with the power.
Benjamin froze, his face contorting with rage and fear. "You... you think you can just come back and ruin everything?"
Damon moved swiftly, placing himself between Kyra and Benjamin. "Leave now, or you’ll regret it." Suddenly, he punched Benjamin in the face, causing his lip to bleed. Benjamin looked at both of them with hatred.
However, Damon quickly pulled Benjamin back and kicked him. Benjamin didn’t hesitate to punch him back.
Soon both of them shifted into their beast forms, their fight breaking the table and spilling outside, where the battle intensified. They clawed and bit at each other, their roars echoing through the surrounding area as they fought with all their might. Snow flew in all directions as their powerful forms clashed, each determined to come out on top.
Soon, both were bloodied, and Kyra was trying to separate them by shouting.
"Damon, stop!" she yelled, her voice desperate and strained. However, he didn’t listen. For three years, he had a fire burning in his heart against Sandra and Benjamin. Once he started fighting, he couldn’t stop himself from pummeling Benjamin like a rag doll.
"Damon, please!" Kyra screamed, her voice breaking as she watched the brutal fight. The snow around them was stained with blood, their roars and growls filling the air.
But Damon was lost in his rage, every punch and claw swipe a release of the anger he’d held for so long. Benjamin, equally furious, fought back with all his might, but he was no match for Damon.
Finally, in a moment of clarity, Damon heard Kyra’s pleading voice cut through the haze of his rage. He paused, panting heavily, his body trembling with the effort to hold back.
His eyes were red with anger as he looked at the weak, bloodied Benjamin on the ground. With a swift, furious motion, he kicked him again.
"I’m letting you go now," Damon said, crouching down, his face dark and menacing. "But soon, Benji, you will pay for what you did to me back then." He delivered another vicious kick, then stood up coldly, his expression filled with loathing.
