Rise of the Malactric Heir

Alix looked at Adora as well as the others and Ifrit smiled at them, then he stood up and looked at Adora before patting Alix on his shoulder.

"I doubt this will be easy going forward, I don't look forward to what's going to happen next, if he wins, more than one faith will be sealed, that includes her for some reason, good night guys," Ifrit said before leaving and Alix exhaled deeply.

"Take her to her room, she needs to relax and then get some rest as well, Alix, good night," Nina said and Alix smiled as she left with Yan.

Alix left and took, Adora to her room where he gently placed her down on the bed and she grabbed onto his hand after he covered her with the blanket.

Alix glanced at Adora and she opened her eyes, then he smiled at her.

"I am sorry, Alix, I am sorry...." she mumbled and he sighed before passing his hand on her head.

"Why are you sorry, Adora?" he asked.

"Your life is hell because of it all, isn't it?" she asked as he sat down beside her.

"My life is not hell Adora, I know my past was difficult, but because of you guys... It's different," he responded and her eyes narrowed.

"Your past? Did you get another dream?" she asked and he looked at her.

"We will talk about that later, for now, you need to sleep," he responded and she scoffed.

"Alix, do you want to be free?" she asked and he smiled at her.

"You want to be free from all of this, don't you?" he asked.

"Yes, I want to be able to live a normal life, even if it's just for a day because I don't know what I will do after the truth is out," she responded.

"Maybe I can grant that wish for you, do you want to spend a normal day with me?" he asked and she smiled at him before sitting up.

"Are you serious?" she asked before leaning in closer to him and he chuckled then nodded.

"Yeah, I am serious, I can give you a day before the final parts of all of this get started," he responded, she sighed in relief before hugging him and he wrapped his arm around her waist.

"You know you are going to have to give me a proper reward," he said and she chuckled before rising up and looking him in the eyes.

"Then what do you want from me other than the truth?" she asked and a smirk appeared on his face, then he patted her on her head and her cheeks flushed.

Adora had never felt at ease with anyone else as she felt with Alix, after a very long time, she had felt that way with someone.

"Tomorrow when the funeral is over, we will have a lot of work to do, starting then, are you ready to move into the most important chapter in your life?" she asked and he nodded then she smiled.

"Can you sleep with me in here tonight?" she asked.

"You are not afraid that I might try something with you?" he asked.

"I trust you, even if you did, I am not sure I would complain," she responded and he turned away from her due to which she laughed.

"All right, I get it, go to sleep, I will stay," he said and she shoved him against the bed, then placed her head on his chest and he glanced at her before sighing.

"Good night, Alix," she said before falling asleep.

"Good night," he replied, then passed his fingers through her hair.

'She really is unfair, my feelings for her have changed, she is being too careless with me, I am a guy, no matter what those thoughts will always come to our minds, this is bad...' Alix thought before falling asleep with her.

The next morning when Alix woke up, he looked at Adora and smiled at her before moving her head off of him and placing her on her pillow.

Alix got out of bed and stretched off, then exhaled deeply, realizing how well he slept, that too without getting any sort of bad dreams concerning his past.

"Where are you going?" She asked and he looked at her.

"Good morning," he said.

"Good morning, did you sleep uncomfortable?" she asked and he chuckled.

"No, I will go freshen up then we will talk more about what we should and shouldn't do, see ya," he responded before leaving, Adora stretched off, thinking about Vellon's death and a smirk appeared on her face before she got out of bed and went to freshen up.

When they both finished doing their normal morning routines, they went to the living room.

Adora looked at Alix and smiled before approaching him, then Scott approached Adora and she looked at him.

"Good morning guys," Adora said.

"Good morning," they replied.

"Adora, I am still going in the direction you wanted me to, we will be coming close to another nation in about an hour or so," Scott said.

"That's good, that place is called, Yoning, it's nice for a vacation and so on, you will make a stop there, we will only stay a day, have fun, who knows when you will have another chance, you guys want that?" she asked.

'Yeah!" they responded and Alix chuckled.

"Well, just before you land there, I want you to stop a few miles away, in the water, we will be doing Vellon's funeral," she said.

"As you wish, I will keep track of our coordination," Scott replied and Adora smiled at him as Ifrit came to her and she looked at him.

"Can we talk for a few minutes?" he asked.

"I don't like the look in your eyes Ifrit, but sure, let's talk," she responded and he scoffed.

"After our day to relax, I will tell you guys where our final location is, got it?" she asked and they nodded, then she sighed and walked away with Ifrit and Alix glanced at them before sitting down with the others.

Adora knew Ifrit wanted to talk to her concerning the past and a few other decisions since it was what he wanted for a while and she knew that he had the same intention as most who were in his position.
