BXBX NOVEL Chapter 225 Grown
"Are you going to sleep?" she inquired while gazing up at the sky and Alix glanced at her with his eyes narrowing.
"I\'ll go, but will you be able to sleep?" he asked to which she smiled.
"I\'ll be fine; there\'s no need for you to be concerned," she replied, and he sighed.
"If you say so, your highness," he said, and she sighed before placing her hand on his chest and he looked at her.
"What are you up to?" he inquired.
"Checking," she replied.
"It\'s grown, bigger, I can feel it, but it\'s less painful," he said, and she smiled.
"That\'s not bad; it just shows how much you\'ve grown and how much control you have over your current amount of power," she replied.
"I see," he said, "well, good night."
"Good night, Alix, sleep well," she replied as he walked away and waved.
"You, too," he said the left and she sighed.
"I guess I\'ll go sleep too," she muttered while closing the balcony door and adjusted the curtains, then opened the seal and the shadow formed beside her.
"We have a party here tomorrow night, and I have to go shopping," she explained, and it chuckled.
"That\'s really good, let me see you in a dress too, can I before you go?" it asked as she got into bed.
"Good night, you\'ll be the first," she replied.
"I am glad, good night, princess," it said, and the princess soon fell asleep, trying hard not to have any nightmares.
"Finally, you\'re opening up a bit more, Adora, I just hope this all works out without you losing anyone you care about, Adora, I\'m not going to watch anyone hurt you, if they do, they\'ll see the evil demon they all think of me as," the shadow said with a grin.
When Adora woke up the next morning, she stretched and looked at the shadow.
"Good morning," it said.
"Good morning, and thank you," she replied.
"You are welcome, you worked really hard to avoid nightmares while sleeping, don\'t push yourself too hard, it\'s not healthy," it said as she sighed as she got out of bed.
"I know," she replied.
"Good, now seal me and go about preparing for the party, I want you to enjoy it at the very least," it said, and she smiled before sealing it and going about her normal morning routine while the others awoke and went about theirs.
When Adora finished her routine, she got dressed and left her room, heading to the living room.
"Adora," Sarah exclaimed, grabbing the girl\'s arm and pulling her into the living room.
"Good morning to you as well, you seem energetic," she said and the girl smirked.
"Good morning, it\'s already 9 a.m.; I say let\'s eat breakfast and then go," Sarah said.
"Good morning guys, give her some room to breathe, it\'s early," Alix said as he walked into the living room.
"Good morning," Adora replied.
"Hey, it\'s easy for guys to find things to wear, not so easy for us Alix, unless you want to come and help us select, your dressing sense is good you know," Sarah said, and he scoffed.
"Thank you," he replied, "but I don\'t think I\'ll have the patience to help you guys choose." Adora smiled and sat beside him.
"Did you sleep well?" he inquired.
"Yes, why?" she asked.
"Just checking, I know you\'re a night owl, so I had to ask," he said and she sighed.
"Come on guys, let\'s go have breakfast then go shopping or else we might take all day," Adora suggested.
"That\'s a good idea," the king said as he entered the living room with Vince who went to Adora and she smiled.
Both the king and the young boy said, "Good morning."
"Good morning," they replied.
"Well, let\'s go have breakfast; I don\'t feel like doing anything today," the king said, and Adora smiled.
"Need help? I can handle royal matters, it won\'t take me long to get my things to wear," Adora replied and the king smiled.
"Are you sure?" he inquired.
"Yeah, you focus on the party and other matters; give me the ones that will take you time to deal with," she replied.
"Thank you very much, Adora," he said.
"You are welcome, guys, let\'s go have breakfast, then we will head out," Adora said.
"Got it," Nina replied as they all got up and went to the dining hall to have breakfast.
As they arrived at the dining hall, they sat down and took their breakfast then began eating.
While Adora was eating, she noticed the star marking appeared in her eyes through the glass mug and she closed them for a minute then the markings disappeared.
\'Why the hell is it showing so often?\' Adora wondered when she saw the same mark appearing on Alix\'s wrist and she sighed, then it disappeared and Alix looked at her when he saw her staring at him.
"What is it?" he asked.
"Nothing," she replied before continuing to eat.
After everyone finished eating, Adora finished off her coffee, sighed, then got up along with the others girls.
"Are you ready?" Eliza inquired.
"Yeah, let\'s go, you guys be careful too," Adora said as she looked at Kyris then Alix and they smiled.
"Don\'t worry, we\'ll be fine; make sure you guys stay safe as well; call us if anything happens," Kyris replied.
"All right, let\'s go girls," Adora said, leaving with the others in one of the king\'s cars.
"Well, guys, let\'s get going too," Kyris said as he stood up and they left to go shopping as well.
"Do you think the others will be okay, Adora?" Nina inquired as they drove to the mall, and Adora smiled.
"Don\'t worry Nina, they\'ll be fine, they\'re strong," she replied and the girl sighed.
"Adora, one more thing, do you want long sleeves or short sleeves?" "Nothing strapless?" Nina inquired.
"No strapless, I don\'t have any intention of having too much exposure right now," she replied and Nina chuckled while looking out the window.
