Rise of the Malactric Heir

The next morning when Adora woke up, she wiped her eyes and noticed a dark shadow of a guy lurking beside her, and her eyes widened as it smirked at her.

"Eh? "What on earth is this?" she exclaimed.

"Be quiet, Adora." "I am just trying out some new things, I am in the seal, but that doesn't mean I can't scare people and show my presence once the seal is open," the one within her explained, and she sighed in relief.

"You are going to give me a heart attack," she said, then remembered Alix saying the same thing to her and laughed.

"Huh? Are you laughing? "Are you all right?" It questioned, and she scoffed.

"Yeah, I am fine, just feeling a little off," she said, getting out of bed and looking at the shadow.

"I would like to see your true face again," she said, and the shadow smiled.

"For the time being, concentrate on what's more important; you will see me again someday, I promise," it replied, and she smiled.

"I hope so, because I owe you my life as well," she said.

"I owe you more for keeping me alive all these years, allowing me to gain more than my full power, I promise I will be of more use to you in the future, bye for now, be careful throughout the day," it said before she closed the seal and the shadow vanished when she did.

"I am hungry," Adora mumbled before she went to take her bath.

After Adora finished, she got dressed and left the room, hoping to find the others who she assumed were in the living room, but as she walked into the living room, she bumped into someone and her eyes glowed.

"Don't tell me-" she muttered as she looked at the person she had run into and he smirked.

"Adora," he said, and she smiled a bit.

"Adora," Kyris exclaimed as Alix entered the living room at the same time.

"Good morning, Adora," Alix said and she smiled brightly.

"Good morning, Alix, how did you sleep well?" she questioned.

"How could I not?" "You basically forced me to go to bed last night, mean," he replied and she patted him on the shoulder.

"Even so," she said, "I am glad you slept well."

"Show a little more remorse for forcing me," he grinned, and she scoffed.

"I am not going to show remorse if I am not sorry; that would be fake," she explained.

"You are always this way, I am getting used to it," he said as they sat down.

"Adora," a girl called out as she rushed into the room with a bright smile on her face.

"Where are you going with that speed?" the guy she bumped into asked and Adora sighed.

"How are you doing, Niya?" Adora asked as she stood up, and the girl hugged her tightly with tears in her eyes.

"I am fine, I missed you so much, you haven't visited in years, not even when your father came, I am sorry," Niya replied, and Adora patted her on the back before she raised up.

"Don't worry, I'm sorry, I had things to do, it's good to see you again Niya," Adora said and the girl smiled.

Niya was a tall fifteen-year-old with short black hair, blue eyes, a round face, and a slim body.

"Aren't you going to even say hi to Adora bro?" Niya asked while looking at the guy and he sighed.

"I have no interest in someone who has none in me," he said as he was about to leave, but Adora clenched her fists and reluctantly grabbed his arm, and his eyes widened as he turned to look at her.

"Zavis, don't be mean," Niya said, and he gave her a stern look.

"Let go," he said, swatting Adora's hand away and Alix raised his right brow in irritation.

"Your highness," Alix said coldly, and Adora looked at Zavis.

Zavis was tall, muscular, and fair with brown hair and bright blue eyes.

"I have things to do and don't have time to waste," Zavis stated.

"He is getting on my nerves," Alix grumbled, and Kyris gave a nervous smile.

"It's her family, I think it's best if we stay out of it, Alix," Kyris explained.

"We are her team, it doesn't seem like she's going to say anything, that's the first, I don't like this scenery right now, it's making me more on edge," Alix responded, and Kyris sighed.

"Your highness, don't waste your time on certain people; I am hungry; shall we proceed to breakfast?" Alix asked while the others stared at him, not knowing what to say.

"Alix," Eliza said.

"You are right, let's go have breakfast, and it's good to see you again, Zavis," Adora said as she walked out of the living room, and the king and queen sighed as they sat there watching the entire time.

"We have to do something about this because we are a family and their relationship is breaking down even more than before," the queen said as they followed the others to the dining hall.

"I am sorry I spoke out of term," Alix apologized as they entered the dining hall, and Adora stroked the side of his arm.

"Don't worry, it's fine, I am glad you intervened, that probably wouldn't have turned out well at all, our relationship is all messed up though I am not keen on fixing anything with my family," she replied, Alix's eyes narrowing.

"Do you really mean that?" he asked, sitting next to her as the maids exited the dining hall.

"Yeah, I do, it's not on my interest list right now," she replied, as Zavis passed behind her and sat next to Alix for breakfast.

"Don't say anything, just eat, I will be using my phone, I will probably eat later on when no one is around or so," she said, and Alix sighed before taking his food and they all began having their breakfast.
