Chapter 119
“Damon. I’m your sister. Noelle” she said with a playful grin.
Damon wasn’t having it. His faced
darkened, and he shot her a sharp look. Don’t play dumb. You know exactly what I’m asking”
There were too many things about Norße that didn’t make sense. She wasn’t just skilled, she was too skilled.
Most people her age wouldn’t even come close to what she could do. It was almost like the had cheated her way through life.
And now, she had taken a bullet, hadn’t seen a doctor, and yet, somehow, she seas already healing. Way too fast
Damon’s mind raced. The only logical explanation was that she had been part some top–secret organization, trained for God knows what. That would explain the insane abilities, the unnatural recovery
Noelle saw the way he was looking at her, like he wasn’t going to let this go. Her gaze flickered, her usual carefree expression dimming just a little. The shift was subtle, but the air around her felt different
ity kills the cat. Her
te was light, but there
sull, she smiled, Soft, calm, almost lazy. “I get that you’re curious, but you know what they say curiosity was something sharp underneath. “I really don’t want you dying just yet. So how about stop asking?”
Because if she told him the truth, she would have to kill him to keep him quiet.
People al
e always thought Noelle was all fun and games, nothing but smiles and jokes. But when she got serious, she had a way of making the air go
Damon felt it. A quiet warning
He stared at her, his usual confidence shaken just a little. “Noelle…
For a second he wasn’t sure how to respond. Then, almost like he was switching topics out of nowhere, he asked. “By the way where are the
Noelle blinked at him, caught off guard by the question. “Hmm” Assassins?”
She tilted her head, her expression all wide–eyed innocence, like she had no clue what he meant. Then, after a beat, she smiled and asked, “Damon, are you sure you want to know what happened to them?”
Noelie didn’t really mind selling him, but she figured it might freak Damon out
Damon suddenly felt a chill run down his spire. His throat felt dry, but he finally managed to ask, “Umh, are they gonna be a problem for us
They won’t” Noelle grinned. “Chill. There’s no way this comes back to us, I swear.”
Ikamon just stared at her, completely at a loss for words
After everything that happened today. Damon saw Noelle in a whole new light. All the things she had said before, the ones he brushed off, were Marting to seem a lot more real
He remembered that night after the competition, during the celebration party.
Two guys from the team had ined to pull something on Noelle, and she had beaten them so badly they were barely breathing. At the time, she had looked at him, dead serious, and asked if she should just finish the jobs and get rid of the evidence.
He thought she was joking, but now… he wasn’t so sure.
If he hadat stopped her back then, she would have actually done it. That thought alone made his blood run cold.
For the first tam
tame, Damon felt something close to fear when it came to Noelle. And worse, he started worrying about the Anderson family as a whole. This girl is dangerous. What if someone in the family crossed her one day? What if she got pissed off and-
Ne Damon denteven want to fish that thought. The car fell into an eerie silence.
Nyelle, meanwhile, was watching him, her head tilting slightly as she took in his expression. His face kept shifting, going pale, then dark, like he was
dast in sotar horrible thought.
She blinked. What the hell is he thinking”
After a moment, she tried to put herself in his shors, just like Nick hard taught her. Then, it clicked
Her eyes brightened, and she let out a small laugh before flashing Damon a reasuring umile.

Chapter 119
“Damon, are you seriously worried that I’d hurt you?” she asked, amused. “Come on. You’re my family. You’re not like the others. And if anyone ever Toner 1 after you. I’ll be the one protecting you.”
As if to prove her point, she reached over and gave his head a light pat, like she was comforting a scared puppy.
It was almost funny, considering she was about to kill him earlier.
But in Noelle’s mind, none of this contradicted itself. If it weren’t for the lab’s orders, she would never lay a hand on her family. In fact, she would do the opposite; she’d protect them.
After all, she liked them. There was no reason to kill them.
Damon stared at Noelle, unsure what to say.
