Damien's POV:
My eyes burned with a strange mixture of red and gold, like molten fire. I had unleashed the darkness inside me, let it tear through Jaden's army like they were nothing. The moment it took over, I felt unstoppable—a force of raw, destructive power. But now that the fight was over, I stood there, breathing heavily, trying to reel it back in.
Dark smoke swirled around me, seeping out of my eyes, nostrils, and mouth. It was as if the darkness had taken on a physical form, a manifestation of everything vile and monstrous inside me. I glanced down at my paws—Midnight's paws, covered in thick black fur, streaked with blood. The ground around me was littered with the torn and mangled bodies of Jaden's army. I had killed them all.
