Chapter 27 Late
"I hope we win this stupid tournament, I am giving this my everything, I just want to get stronger and stronger, I have no interest in becoming someone's bloody hero, I just want to be able to always win and protect myself along with those I genuinely care about, the rest of the world can burn for all I care," Alix thought as a blue lining appeared in his eyes in the form of a snake then disappeared.
Upon arriving home Alix noticed Sally talking to a guy in a cloak.
'Sally," he called out as he got out of the car and both she along with the guy looked at Alix.
"Alix, you are home," she said.
'Yeah I am, good night, you okay?" he asked.
'Yeah I am fine, this is just a friend of mine, here," she said as she passed him a box of pastry and he collected it.
"Thanks, night Sally," he said as he walked away and she sighed.
"How long do you plan to keep it from him?" the guy asked and she scoffed.
"Go home, what I do what that kid is my business, not yours," she responded.
'Your actions will come back to bite you one day," he said then left and she sighed.
"She was acting weird," he said as he took his keys out, opened his door, and went into his apartment then locked it back and threw himself on the couch in the living room.
"Ugh... I have a bad feeling about tomorrow," he said as he stretched off, a little while after Alix fell asleep.
Later that night while the princess was fast asleep, she started hearing whispers.
"Your highness..." someone called out and she flung up from her sleep with her eyes glowing red.
"I swear to whoever is messing with me when I find you I will rip your head off, good night son of a bitch," she said then went back to sleep ignoring the voice completely.
The next morning when Adora woke up, she stretched off while thinking about what happened last night and went to freshen up for she had to train Alix.
When the princess finished her morning routine she left home heading to where Alix loved, little did she know Alix was fast asleep and one thing the princess did not like was latecomers.
Upon arriving before Alix's apartment building the girl got out of the car heading to his apartment.
"Alix," she called out as she rang the doorbell but he was in a deep slumber.
'What the hell? is he even awake?" she asked as she closed her eyes, disappeared then reappeared inside of his apartment and scoffed.
"He might be poor but this is a nice little place," she mumbled.
"Alix," she called out as she heard the alarm ringing and walked into the living room where she saw him sleeping on the couch.
"I see, the alarm is going off and yet you can't seem to wake up," she said as her eyes glowed red and she bent down.
"Alix," she whispered as she placed her lips by his ear, whispering softly and his eyes opened immediately.
The boy flung up from the couch in a flight and was about to punch the girl but she punched him in the stomach and into the wall which cracked as he fell to the floor looking like an airhead.
"What the hell?" he asked as he finally woke up properly, wiped his eyes, and saw the princess standing before him.
"You have a lot of guts trying to hit me so early in the morning Alix, are you looking forward to your death at an early age sweetheart?" she asked and he scoffed.
"Whatever, what are you doing in my home without my permission? i don't care you are the princess, you have no right to sneak into my home, so speak up, you better have a good explanation," he responded as he got up and she sighed.
"What task do I give you in the morning you imbecile?" she asked as he looked at her sternly.
"That look won't hurt me Alix, I will do what I want when you are concerned, after all, you are mine to command," she responded and he sat down.
"I am late?" he asked.
"Of course you are, you are such an idiot, hurry up and get ready, we are going to a certain site," she responded.
'Why did you even come into my life? make yourself at home, I will go freshen up, and good morning to you too," he said while walking away and she smiled then pulled her mask down a little as her hair fell before her face.
"I want to take the mask off but if he sees me, I wonder what will happen, even this hair color is fake," muttered Adora.
After Alix finished taking his bath, he came out wrapped in his towel while the princess stared at him.
"You have no manners do you?" she asked and he looked at her.
'You are in my home so why should I?" he asked while she stared at his ripped body.
"You kept yourself fit, you got abs even though you knew you are going to die," she said.
"Nothing's wrong with that, I made something called peace with death," he replied.
"You know girls love you, I have seen how some of them stare at you but they don't really care..." she said and he sighed as he dried his hair.
"I know that girls have a weakness for looks, it's pathetic," he replied.
"I can say the same thing about you guys, you talk about girls when even you guys can't resist at times, now have some manners and get the hell out of my face," she said.
"Just imagine how ruthless you are, seriously I am being ordered what to do in my home, how seemingly pointless is this?" he asked as he went to his room and got changed.
