Chapter 136 – The Only Favorites
Selene's eyes widened. "A talent… that lets you gain everything from the women who love you?"
She was stunned.
What kind of absurd talent was this?
"And what do you even mean by everything?" she asked, barely able to process.
"Everything means just that… everything," Noah replied calmly. "I can inherit their talents, affinities, skills… even their bloodlines."
BADUM—!
Selene's heart skipped a beat. Her beautiful purple eyes trembled.
Now it all made sense.
Why Noah had been gathering women the way a young girl collects precious jewels.
"It's because of this…?" she whispered.
Noah nodded, a soft smile on his face. "Yes, Mother. This talent is my greatest secret. It made me who I am. That's why I've never told anyone. But with you… I felt like it was okay to tell you."
His smile carried the weight of deep trust—of vulnerability he rarely allowed.
