The Eternal Family

Chapter 7 Suprise

Somewhat impatient, yet not hating what she was seeing, Emma asked "So tell us the secret already, I'm curious, What made you so happy?"

With a bit of reluctance, Ace gently let go of his sister and she moved out of his embrace; they once again sat in a circle on the bed, crawling on the bed as they moved.

Sitting comfortably, Lilly stopped and turned to look at Harry, her eyes a picture of expectations, he should come and sit beside her…right?

Despite that, Harry just offered a wink and continued crawling. And shortly, He stopped behind his mother, hugged her from behind, and then rested his chin on her shoulders.

Emma was slightly taken aback and thought, 'His mood really is good today…'

Looking at Lilly and seeing his sister give him a wronged expression, he said, "Mom is precious, too, you know?" He then stopped speaking as though it answered everything.

Mom patted his head with one of her hands and urged him, "Dear, You can hug me as long as you want, Mom is only eager to do so, but tell me the secret first."

She was too curious about what had made her son so happy...

Harry nodded with an eager smile on his handsome face. "Mom, sis, you guys are up for a real surprise…do you know what?" with a little pause to make it dramatic, he continued with a question: "How do you think I survived the poison?"

Then answered himself as he saw the anticipation in their eyes, "I unlocked my gift yesterday, No, Actually I had it all along, but it was a… very sneaky gift, So you could say I only found it yesterday."

Lilly and Emma blinked, confused for a second and then flabbergasted...What? They simply couldn't comprehend his words.

Allowing them to have their time, he kissed his mother on the cheek from the side, and she did not object.

It was a rare opportunity for him to express his affection for her, so why would she refuse?

And, encouraged by her quiet acceptance, he moved his lips boldly, kissing her jawline a little — Emma was startled a bit but did nothing to stop his shenanigans and allowed him to continue — he moved to her ears and bit it ever so gently...

Emma could feel her heart rate rising.

Emboldened, he slowly moved his hands towards her boobs, moving slowly up from her waist, but stopped it midway and decided not to rush it and took his hands back.

She was his lovely mother, he didn't want to make her mad…

Instead, he gently kissed her neck from the back, and this time, it surely did surprise her as an electric shock went through her back, his hug tightened in attempt to hold her still, but she was too strong even physically as she pushed his face away gently with her jade hands and said, reproachfully: "little rascal, you shouldn't kiss there, that's your mom's weak spot, you know?" Her cheeks flushed briefly but rapidly faded.

Hearing her mother's words, Lilly snapped out of her trance and asked, "What happened? What is your weak point?"

But still, her focus was on the awakening an ability part, so that question was just half-hearted mumbles, she was just too stunned at the moment.

Her brother had a Gift!

Yet, not giving them any more time to think, Harry asked with a smug smile, "So, now that you guys have digested what you heard, what do you think of my surprise?" and once again took back his well-deserved place, behind his Mom, and put his chin back on her shoulders again.

Both out of their trance, Mom and Lilly asked in unison, their voice barely not a yell, "What is your innate Gift?"

They never considered the fact that he might be lying, he had no need to, and he was never that cruel to himself to make such a dumb lie.

But, if so, then…What was his Gift?

Harry laughed as he left his mom out of his hug and jumped out of the bed, then said mysteriously, "I will tell that to you personally some other time, I bet it will be another surprise, A bigger one!" he sounded rather eager to do just that.

And without waiting for them to make him cough up the answer, he ran out of the room, So, before the two could understand he was running away, he was already gone.

Lilly grumbled with a pout, "Brother is so mean today."

Mom ruffled her daughter's hair and supported her statement, "Yes he sure is different today."
