Chapter 108 Mark



"Adora," he said, and she smiled at him.

"You called me by my name for the first time," she replied and he sighed.

"What is that mark on your back?" he asked.

"Marks from my abilities and a few other things," she explained.

"Have you ever been in a life-or-death situation?" he questioned.

"Yes, I was, and it\'s also one of the reasons I\'m good at fighting, defending myself, and killing. You\'re probably wondering, \'How is that good?\' It\'s because it kept me alive as a child and kept those around me safe "She replied.

"I didn\'t think that, can I see your mark?" he asked.

"Certainly," she replied.

"Should I move your hair?" he asked, and she gave him a sidelong glance.

"Are you afraid of touching me?" she questioned.

"If I remember correctly, I am not supposed to touch you without your permission," he replied, and she chuckled.

"Go ahead, check for yourself," she advised.

"All right," he said, placing his hand on her long, silky hair and placed it in front of her, then smiled as he looked at the mark.

"How far does the mark extend?" he asked.

"Do you want to see where it ends?" she asked, and he smiled.

"Hmm, maybe someday, what kind of marking is it?" he questioned as she placed her hair back in a bun.

"It\'s shaped in fire lilies," she explained.

"Is that a thing?" he asked.

"Are you telling me you have never seen a fire lily?" she inquired.

"No, I did a lot of science classes and stuff, but I never heard of it," he replied.

"Well, there are fire lilies where we\'re going, I\'ll show you," she said as he sneezed and she smiled.

"Perhaps it\'s time you got some rest; I don\'t want you getting sick," she suggested, and he yawned.

"I think I will, in a few, look, I am just going to say it, I know you want people with potential, unlike the others when I started out, I was just a pebble near then, and yet you didn\'t give up on me, how much do you know about me that I don\'t?" he asked and she smirked.

"I see, so that\'s what\'s on your mind as well, well, I know more about you than you know about yourself, that\'s for sure, and you will get to know the same things I know about you when the time comes, think you can wait?" she asked then he smiled at her.

"Of course, I can wait, I have a lot more to focus on right now," he replied as he laid back on the bed and promptly fell asleep.

"Look at you, you didn\'t even take a minute, I think I am getting off track," Adora said as she stood up, and despite being asleep, Alix grabbed her by her hand.

"He has quick reflexes," she muttered as she drew her down onto the bed and hugged her tightly.

"Now this is the perfect example of invading someone\'s space," Adora said with a pout as his hand tightened around her waist and she looked at his face before removing her mask and smiling.

"You look peaceful," she said as she covered her face with his sheet. A little while later, the princess fell asleep with her back against him because she didn\'t want him to see her face even by accident.

The next morning when Alix woke up, he squeezed something very soft.

"Ouch," the princess mumbled, and when he opened his eyes, he smiled nervously upon seeing the princess sleeping beside him and his hand around her waist.

"She is going to kill me, she\'s not even wearing her mask," he muttered, peering at her but unable to see her face because her hair had fallen on her face, covering her up, and half of it was covered by the sheet.

"Good thing I can\'t see her, though I am tempted to move her hair and the sheet because I want to see her," he muttered, and Adora opened her eyes.

"I... I will kill you if you think about it," she said, and he grinned, then took his hand off her waist, looked around and saw her mask on the bed, gave it to her then turned away.

"Thank you," she said as she placed her mask on then sat up with her hair falling in front of her and she placed her chin on top of his shoulder, and he glanced at her.

"Want to see my face badly enough to look at it without my permission? you got guts," she said.

"Don\'t you think you are a little too close?" he asked as someone knocked on his door and her eyes widened as she moved away from him.

"Great, just great," he said, getting out of bed and looking at her.

"Please be careful how you open the door," she said, and he smirked as he opened it slightly and saw Sarah outside.

"Good morning, Alix," she said cheerfully.

\'Good morning, what\'s up?\' he inquired.

"Breakfast is ready, and it\'s nearly 10 a.m.; the others asked me to wake you; will you join us?" she asked and Adora smiled.

"What am I doing hiding here?" "This is truly pathetic," she muttered.

"Sure, just let me freshen up and so on, and I\'ll join you guys," he said.

"Good, I will go wake up the princess," she replied and Adora sighed.

\'I really want to mess with her this morning, but I won\'t because she is a princess, and messing with her this way might not be good,\' Alix thought.

"Sarah, the princess is awake," he said, and Adora\'s eyes widened as she stared at him, waiting to hear what he would say.

"How do you know that?" Sarah asked and Adora clenched her fists.

"I heard her on the phone not long ago, so I don\'t think you should bother her," he replied.

"Ah, I see, thanks for telling me Alix, see ya," she said as she walked away, and he smiled then pushed in the door, and the princess sighed with relief.
