Chapter 171: Chapter 171 Beauty contest
Damon flew close to Kyra, his silver eyes filled with an intense admiration as he watched her running through the snow.
Kyra continued to dash through the snow, her paws leaving delicate imprints on the icy ground. Lost in her exploration, she didn’t notice that she was circling back to where she started until Damon’s playful chuckle broke the silence.
"Little thing, have you realized you’ve been running in circles?" Damon teased, landing gracefully and shifting into his human form.
Kyra stopped abruptly, tilting her head as she looked at Damon and let out a bark, her eyes bright and angry.
"What are you trying to say, little one?" Damon asked with a smile, approaching her.
He couldn’t resist reaching out to gently stroke her furry head, but Kyra backed away and barked again, this time more insistently, pointing her paw in a specific direction.
"Oh, you want something more?" Damon chuckled, amused by her playful antics. He continued to rub her head affectionately, his fingers sinking into her thick fur.
Kyra shook her head, and Damon raised an eyebrow, pretending to misunderstand her. "You want even more pats?" he teased, his laughter echoing across the snowy landscape.
Unable to resist her charm, Damon gave in and continued to stroke her head, his heart warming at the sight of her adorable Angry expressions. "You’re such a cute little thing," he murmured.
"You, you—I’m saying I don’t know the directions!" Kyra said, shifting into her human form, her voice tinged with frustration.
But when she didn’t get an immediate response, she looked up to see Damon staring at her blankly.
Suddenly, realization hit her like a bolt of lightning. She glanced down and felt her cheeks burn with embarrassment. "Damn, I’m naked!" she exclaimed, quickly trying to cover herself with her arms.
Damon’s eyes widened slightly before he turned away, a faint blush creeping onto his cheeks.
Kyra shifted back into her beast form and walked towards Damon, nudging his strong legs with her nose.
He looked down at her and nodded, "Follow me, little thing," he said.
He then took to the sky, flying slowly while frequently glancing back to ensure she was running smoothly and not encountering any danger.
The two-legged monsters had become a serious threat, multiplying like cockroaches. They had caused the deaths of many Beastmen, and now, groups of beasts above level five had banded together to hunt them down.
Damon was determined to keep Kyra safe from these creatures.
Kyra ran swiftly through the snow, her red fur contrasting sharply against the white landscape.
As they continued their journey, Damon remained vigilant, scanning the area for any signs of danger. He wouldn’t let anything happen to her, not on his watch. The bond between them was growing stronger, and he found himself more protective of her with each passing moment.
Soon, they arrived at their home. Damon handed Kyra some clothes. She took them in her mouth and quickly ran to the bathroom. He watched her disappear behind the door, his mind replaying the image of her naked form.
His silver eyes flashed with obsessiveness, and only he knew how much he struggled to control his hormones after seeing her like that. The desire to hold her, to feel her against him, was almost overwhelming.
As Kyra dressed in the bathroom, Damon paced back and forth, trying to clear his thoughts. He needed to stay focused and not let his emotions get the better of him.
Kyra rolled her eyes as she realized the bathroom had no water again. "Of course, why would there be water?" she muttered to herself, frustrated. "Just digging a pipeline in the ground doesn’t magically make water come out."
She sighed and decided to use the basin filled with cold water Damon had collected before. After quickly freshening up, she got dressed and stepped out of the bathroom.
When Kyra came out of the bathroom, her eyes locked with Damon’s intense silver gaze. Her cheeks flushed a deep red as the memory of being nearly naked in front of him flooded back.
Damon noticed her reddening cheeks and couldn’t help but feel a surge of desire. He knew he was in trouble if he didn’t control his growing urges caused by this certain little thing.
Kyra’s eyes suddenly fell on the prominent bulge in Damon’s robe, and her cheeks turned an even deeper shade of crimson. Despite her experiences with Lucas and Vincent, she still felt shy seeing someone else’s private parts.
Damon, catching her glance, smirked slightly. "Like what you see, little thing?"
Kyra quickly averted her eyes, feeling even more embarrassed. "Damon, stop teasing," she mumbled, trying to hide her blush.
He chuckled softly and moved closer to her, his hand gently lifting her chin to meet his gaze. "I’m not teasing, little thing. You’re beautiful."
The sincerity in his voice made her heart skip a beat. She felt a mix of shyness and excitement as he leaned in closer. "Damon..."
"Shh," he whispered, brushing a strand of hair from her face. "I can’t help it. You’re driving me crazy, you know that?"
Kyra’s breath hitched as he leaned in, his lips just inches from hers. The air between them was charged with anticipation. She closed her eyes, waiting for the his move.
"Damon! Damon!" The sudden shout broke their moment, and they both jumped apart.
Damon closed his eyes in frustration, muttering a curse under his breath as he walked downstairs to answer the door. When he opened it, he found a random male standing there.
"What?" Damon asked rudely, clearly annoyed at the interruption.
"Sorry to disturb you, Damon! But I have news to tell everyone. If you have a female in your house, be ready because a beauty contest is about to start. It’s going to be held next week in the town center. That’s all I wanted to say. I’m leaving now, thank you for hearing my banter," the male said very quickly, then darted away with a wave and a sweet smile.
