Rise of the Malactric Heir

As Adora held onto her chest, the shadow smiled.

"There's no need to thank me; I'm just doing what I want, and it makes me feel better," she replied, and the shadow sighed.

"Then I'm glad I was sealed within you, I got to see and learn a lot from you, I hope I can repay you someday," it said as she looked up at the sky and her eyes glowed briefly before returning to normal.

"Is that normal for your eyes?" it inquired.

"It just means my body is changing more, that's all, I'm fine," she replied.

"Are you sure?" it asked.

"Yeah, I am," she replied.

"Hmm, that is screaming hell no I am not fine, ugh," it said.

"Calm down, old man," she replied.

"Do not refer to me as an old man!" It yelled, and she chuckled.

"Okay, I will be sealing you know, that okay?" she asked.

"That's fine, don't call me an old man princess," it replied, and she smiled.

"Got it, old man," she said.

"You-" it said, but she sealed it before it could continue.

"Sorry," she mumbled, then went back into her room, switched on the TV to watch a movie and sat down on the bed.

Adora spent the entire afternoon doing nothing and becoming bored.

Later that day just after dinner, Adora went up to her room to freshen up, then looked at the time which was 8:30 pm.

"That's it I am going for a little walk," she muttered, then went to freshen up and after she finished, Adora got changed, grabbed her purse and phone, and was about to leave but instead she went to Alix's room while he was putting on his shirt and jumped when he saw her in his room.

"You could have knocked, room invader," he said.

"Didn't feel like it, also I want you to come with me," she replied and he sighed.

"Are you going somewhere?" he asked.

"Yeah, I want to go out to have dinner, that's why I didn't eat, I just sat with you guys besides you didn't eat much either," she responded as he stared at her and smiled.

"All right, fine," he said.

"Really? Are you trying to pull a stunt on me, Alix?" she asked and he approached her, grabbed his phone from the table then placed it in his pocket.

"Let's go," he said as he walked away, and she smiled before following him.

While walking down the hallway to leave the castle, they saw the others in the living room and Adora looked at Alix.

"Guys," she said, and they turned to face her.

"Are you guys going somewhere?" Eliza inquired.

"Yeah, do any of you want to come along?" Adora inquired, and Nina smiled before anyone could respond.

"No, we'll stay here, you guys go ahead and relax a little, and Adora, can we all plan on going out as a team later on in our stay here?" Nina asked, and Adora smiled.

"Sure, I don't see why not, all you guys have to do is pick a date," she replied, and they smiled as Nina gripped Yan's hand.

"Got it, both of you, be careful," Nina said.

"You both better be back in one piece, Alix," Kyris said, and Alix grinned.

"Of course," he replied.

"Let's go," Adora said then grabbed one of the car keys from the small cabinet on the wall and went to the king's garage.

"We can take any of the cars, I got permission earlier," she said as she tossed the key to Alix, who looked at it.

"I can drive it, I've done a lot of jobs before," he said, "but are you sure?"

"Yeah," she replied as they went into one of the king's most comfortable and luxurious cars, as well as one of the fastest in his garage then Alix started it and smiled.

"Let's go," she said and he drove off with speed as she looked out the window and Yan looked at Nina while smiling.

"What are you doing?" he asked quietly, and she coughed.

"What exactly do you mean? I have no idea what you're talking about; please leave it at that," she said and he chuckled.

"Alright, I know what you're doing, and I think it's cute," he replied, and her cheeks flushed as she pouted before he kissed her on the cheek and continued to talk with the others and watch a movie since they had nothing else to do.

When Alix and Adora arrived in the city, Alix slowed down a bit and Adora's hair blew up due to the wind.

"I'm sorry," she said as he gently held onto her hair.

"It's fine," he replied, then released her hair, which she tied up in a bun.

"Where do you want to go?" she asked and he looked at her when he sniffed something and she smiled.

"That smells good," he said as he observed a man selling food to a large crowd on the side of the road, and everyone appeared to enjoy it.

"Would you like to go try it out?" she inquired.

"Is it appropriate for a princess to visit places like this?" he asked as she looked at him.

"I don't see a problem; he's a chef selling from a food van on the side of the road; it's a nice small restaurant; look at the nice light he's hanging and the tables and chairs, it's all cute," she said.

"It doesn't matter to me," she said as he parked the car and both of them got out, then went over to the small restaurant as Adora called it, there was a chef who had set up a van, cooking and selling food to people and had tables along with chairs for customers to sit and eat at the side of the van and flowers to give the area a fresh and minty scent.

"Ah, well this smells good, too good, you have got an excellent nose, Alix," she remarked and he scoffed.
