Chapter 345: Chapter 345 Tribe tour
The next morning, Kyra woke up feeling the soreness in her legs and body, a reminder of the night before. She noticed that she was already clean, but Damon was nowhere to be seen. Just as she started to wonder, the door creaked open, and in walked Damon, a teasing smile on his face as he carried a breakfast tray toward her.
"Hmm... how’s my little thing? How did you sleep last night?" he asked, his tone shameless and playful.
Kyra’s face flushed red instantly. "Damon, you’re such a bad dragon," she muttered, flustered by his teasing, but he only chuckled in response.
"Hmm... did you enjoy yourself?" he asked again, clearly amused by her embarrassment.
Kyra buried her face under the blanket, trying to hide from him. "Don’t talk to me, shameless dragon," she mumbled, her voice muffled by the covers.
Damon laughed softly. "Alright, alright, I’m sorry. Come on, have breakfast—you must be hungry." He placed the tray in front of her gently.
Kyra peeked out from under the blanket and sat up, giving him a playful glare. "You should be sorry," she muttered, but her attention soon shifted to the delicious breakfast in front of her, her stomach growling in response.
Damon smiled warmly, watching her, clearly pleased with himself. "I’ll make it up to you, little thing."
When Kyra finally gathered the courage to go downstairs, her face turned a deep shade of red. The moment she stepped into the room, she could feel all their eyes on her—intense, heated, and far too knowing for her comfort.
Silas, in particular, was staring at her in such a strange, almost creepy way, his eyes lingering far too long. She shifted awkwardly under his gaze, but he didn’t seem to notice or care.
And then there was Lucas, his wide eyes fixed on her, his expression one of curiosity mixed with... something else. Vincent, too, seemed to be watching her with an intensity that made her feel even more flustered.
But it was Oceanus who truly made her feel exposed. His lips curved into a playful, teasing smile as he met her eyes, like he knew exactly what had happened the night before.
Kyra’s cheeks flamed even more as she hurried to take a seat, silently cursing Damon. Was I really that loud last night? she thought, her mind racing. Oh no, blame Damon!
She glanced around the room, avoiding their eyes as much as possible, completely mortified.
"Little Toma," Kyra called softly, grateful for the distraction. Her heart melted when she saw the small boy with his sleepy eyes toddling toward her. As soon as he heard her voice, Toma ran straight to her and hugged her tightly. Kyra smiled, hugging him back, thankful for the moment to escape all the heated stares in the room.
But her relief didn’t last long.
Lucas, ever the curious one, piped up suddenly, "By the way, Ky Ky, Damon’s mark is near your thighs and below your knees. That means it’s a life journey together, Wow!"
Kyra’s smile faltered, and she couldn’t help but glance at Damon, whose intense eyes were already fixed on her. The way his gaze darkened as their eyes met, combined with the way he licked his lips slowly, sent a shiver down her spine. Her face flushed deep red.
She quickly averted her eyes, her heart racing. Damon seemed to be enjoying the effect he had on her far too much, while she was doing her best to keep calm, especially with little Toma still clinging to her side.
Kyra buried her face in Toma’s soft hair, trying to calm her racing heart as she muttered silently to herself, Why does he have to look at me like that in front of everyone?
After the awkward moment passed, Kyra decided it was time to give Oceanus, Silas, and Damon a proper tour of the tribe. The idea seemed to excite everyone, and Kyra was happy to show them around, hoping it would distract her from the lingering embarrassment.
She introduced them to the tribe people, and when curious eyes asked where she had been and what happened, she gave them a brief summary of her journey without going into too much detail. The tribe was genuinely relieved and happy to have her back.
As they continued their tour, Kyra proudly showed Oceanus the tribe’s hospital. His eyes lit up with excitement, and his sly, seductive smile returned, making it clear he was already planning ways to make himself useful.
Next, Kyra led them to the school, which hadn’t yet opened. She explained that her disappearance had delayed the school’s progress, but she was determined to get it running soon. Oceanus and Silas nodded in approval, while Damon quietly listened, his focus always lingering on Kyra more than the surroundings.
They passed through the market and the area where the female tribe members lived. Many females asked Kyra what had happened while she was gone, and, like before, she kept her story brief. Some of the females noticed her small baby bump and quickly congratulated her. Word spread like wildfire that Kyra had returned, and her mates were the mysterious foreign beasts that had accompanied her.
Lucas, not one to miss an opportunity, proudly showed them his restaurant, his eyes shining with pride as he asked Damon if he’d be interested in working there. Damon, unsurprisingly, ruthlessly rejected the offer, much to Lucas’s disappointment.
Finally, as they strolled back, Kyra explained to everyone what had happened in Celestia and how she met Damon. The story made Silas and Oceanus chuckle at a few points, but Damon simply smirked, clearly satisfied with how things had turned out between them.
As the sun began to set, the tribe was buzzing with the news of Kyra’s return, and Kyra felt more at home than ever, especially with her mates by her side.
They also had brought groceries, so Damon and Silas went to prepare dinner.
Kyra sat on the sofa with Toma, while Vincent was muttering something in her ear.
