Rise of the Malactric Heir

As they laughed, someone came to Adora's room door and it was none other than her father, he was about to knock on her door but at the same time, the queen came and grabbed onto his hand, causing him to flinch and he glanced at her.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"I want to talk to her," he responded and the queen left staring at her then she exhaled deeply. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"How oblivious can you really be? Can't you hear?" she asked and his eyes narrowed then he heard the laughter from within the room and his eyes lit up.

"Adora..." he mumbled and the queen smiled then patted him on his shoulder.

"She is growing, they are all adults now, you can talk to her tomorrow, I am sure these guys will be just fine and you would be as well," she said and he lowered his gaze, then a gentle smile appeared on her face as she looked at him.

"You right, maybe she will have everything come her way, no, not maybe, I want these kids to be able to choose and when they get older, possibly, make the right decisions," he replied and the queen chuckled.

"All right, I get how you are feeling, but, let's not disturb them and go back to our room, you need to rest as well, you guys have done enough for one day, get some rest, come on, there is only so much one can do in one day, talk to her another day," the queen said as she held onto his hand and he glanced at her.

"You are right, we have done enough for one day, but the thing is, they are young, have a bright future ahead of them, I hope, so many was hurt before, I don't want anything like that to happen again, not to these kids or anyone ese," he replied.

"I understand the way you feel all too well and I wish the same, I don't want what happened back then to repeat itself, I don't want to see bloodshed either, that's why I hope that you guys don't fail either," she said and he looked at her then smiled before patting her on her head.

"Thank you, I am glad you are here, let's go, let her be happy, she deserves happiness, but it's stilla little weird, that much I might have a herd time with," he replied and she chuckled then patted him on his shoulder.

"Come on, let's go," the king said as he walked away and his wife followed him with a happy smile on her face, without saying a word, for she didn't want him to stress himself anymore either.

After they all left, Adora glanced at Alix as he sat up on the bed and her eyes shimmered as he smiled at her, then she lowered her head as well as clenched her fist and he noticed that.

"Adora, unhappy?" he asked and she flinched then looked at him and he smiled at her.

"No, that's not it, I am not sad or anything, things have just gotten a little bad now, hasn't it?" Adora asked and Alix glanced at her.

"Yes, I won't deny it, it has gotten a little more than it was before, back then, especially on the inside, the event was slightly larger back then and not as dangerous as it is today, but still was, a lot died as well, so I heard of course," He responded as he glanced at her and she exhaled deeply.

"Adora, I get you are worried about everything that may happen, after all this is your kingdom as well, not just your father's and the queen, but don't beat yourself up about it so much, it is not your fault, that I can assure you," he added and she looked at him.

Alix placed his hand on her cheek and she rubbed her face against him then looked up at him and a smirk appeared on his face and her eyes shimmered and cheeks flushed.

"Wh- What?" she asked and he got closer to her.

"Do I have the permission, Adora?" he asked and her cheeks got red and warm.

"P- Permission?" she asked and he chuckled then looked at her.

"You are so cute, I like to see you like this as well, where you just let yourself go, even if it's just for a little bit," he responded and she lowered her head then he kissed her hand and she flinched.

"I am sorry I am like this all the time, Alix," she said and he looked at her.

'I was right, she is hiding a lot more things but, right now, she is being a little vulnerable with me again, I will not spoil it, we can talk about that tomorrow,' he thought.

"There is no need to apologize Adora, you are fine the way you are," he replied.

Shee kissed him and his eyes narrowed as he wrapped his arms around her waist, then kissed her by her neck and as he passed his cold hand on her body as she laid back, against the bed.

She flinched and his eyes narrowed as he looked at her.

"Cold..." she mumbled and a smirk appeared on his face as he took her clothes off and leaning over her.

Alix kissed Adora, locking their lips together and her cheeks flushed, both of them allowed themselves to get carried away with each other, not caring about anything else.

That night, Adora didn't think about what was going to come next, nor did Alix, despite the current problems they were facing, they only enjoyed themselves with each other, letting loose once again.

Later that night, Adora fell asleep in Alix's arm and he looked at her then moved her hair from in front of her face, placing it behind her ears.

"You finally look a little peaceful, we have to talk Adora, I hope you will tell me what I want to know, I don't plan on letting this go and tomorrow is going to be the day I ask, good night," he said as he kissed her on her forehead.

After a little while, Alix fell asleep as well, with both of them hugging each other.
