Rise of the Malactric Heir

Later that night, while Alix was sleeping, he kept hearing the same woman's voice, which irritated and disturbed him.

"I hate this," he muttered as he opened his eyes and wiped them while Adora woke up and began playing music on low volume, but he could hear it because Alix's room was next to hers.

"Is she still awake?" he asked and he opened his room door, went to hers and knocked.

"Who is it at this time?" she asked while covering her face with the mask then opened the door and saw it was Alix.

"Alix, is everything all right?" She asked as he entered her room, and she peeked at him before closing the door.

"Why are you not sleeping?" he inquired.

"Perhaps I should ask you that," she said as she gripped her arm and sighed.

"I tried, but the voice is really bothering me, how about you?" he said as she started closing her eyes.

"Wait, if you're tired, sleep," he said, and she smiled as she approached him, braced him against the wall, and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Alix, why don't you stay?" she asked as she braced her breast against him and he turned his face away from her.

"I- I don't have to stay," he said.

"Please," she said, and he abruptly lifted her up in his arm, then took her to the bed where he placed her gently and then switched the lights off.

"I am going to stay now and try to get some sleep," he said, and she chuckled.

"What?" he asked.

"You are odd, did I catch you off guard again?" she inquired, and he sighed.

"Shut it and sleep," he said as he sat down on the couch, placed a pillow under his head, and closed his eyes as she peeked at him.

'This is bad, I actually want to bother him a little,' Adora thought as she stretched off and Alix closed his eyes, attempting to sleep.

After a little while of trying, Alix finally managed to fall asleep but Adora didn't.

"He looks peaceful when he sleeps," she said while opening the seal.

"What's the matter with you sulking? "It's also very dark in here," it said.

"I am sorry about that; could you keep watch tonight?" she inquired.

"Are you having sleeping problems again?" I will keep an eye on you whenever you want, try to sleep," he replied, and she closed her eyes as the shadow formed beside her, looking at Alix.

"I wonder what problem you two will face in the future, you're both building a strong connection with each other even if you don't realize it yet, a connection that won't be easily broken, it scares me," it mumbled.

"Adora, are you sleeping?" It inquired, but she did not respond because she had fallen asleep and the time was 5 a.m.

"If you want to talk I will listen, at least see me this once without going at each other's throat," someone said and the shadow smirked as Adora opened her eyes and got off of the bed then fixed her mask.

"Are you sure you are going out there?" it inquired.

"Yes, I am sealing you back, he can't hurt me," she replied, closing the seal, then opening the balcony door and jumped off the balcony, heading towards the hill but little did she know someone was up at the time and saw her.

When Adora arrived at the hill and saw a guy standing there, she said, "Boy, I summon you," and the tiger appeared beside her.

"Good morning, Adora," he said.

"Vellon," she replied as he turned to look at her and smiled.

"If you came here to warn me, threaten me, or tell me a bunch of nonsense, it won't work," she said, and he scoffed before looking up at the rising sun.

"I am not here to tell you anything like that; I just wanted to see you," he said, and she clenched her fists while lowering her head, filled with rage.

"If you stay here any longer, I might actually hurt you," she replied.

"I see your trust in me has been completely broken," he said, and her eyes shook as they began to glow purple and the tiger began to growl.

"What brings you here? "I will fucking destroy you if you think you are going to be able to hurt the people I care about," she yelled, her body turning bright red and his hands trembled.

"You need to get rid of the spy, if you don't do it soon, you will lose a lot, do not underestimate us, when he comes for you, he won't stop until you are dead, his forces are not weak Adora, get rid of those who betray you, if you don't, you will pay the price, even if it means killing the ones you once cared deeply for," he said, and she laughed.

"I don't care who I have to kill, I will do it, and I know who the spy is, don't worry, she will die, but I suggest you watch your step, I am just waiting for you to make the wrong move and I will pull every string until you die a painful death," she replied, and he lowered his head as he walked towards her, and she grabbed him by the neck, choking him as he stared into her eyes.

"Are you upset? "Do you intend to harm me?" She shouted while he struggled for breath, and when she realized he had no intention of attacking her, she threw him to the ground, and he began laughing as he stood up.

"I now know you are serious about killing me, Adora," he said as he approached her, and she was about to move when he placed his hand on her cheek.

"I really can't get over the fact that I care for you, no matter what happens or who I become, the fact is I loved you then and I will always love you, forever and always, protect the ones you love, that's all," he said, and her eyes widened as she stared at his smiling face before he vanished and she closed her eyes and gnashed her teeth.
