Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 332 What One Lacks

"How exhausted are you?" Zack asked, and Adora gave him a sidelong glance.

"Is it such a bad thing that I'm as tired as one can get, which means the only thing I can think about right now is sleeping?" they laughed when she asked.

"I don't think that's a bad thing for someone who doesn't get enough sleep," Alix responded.

"Exactly, you definitely lack that," Zack said and Adora sighed.

"Whatever, you are right, I do lack those," she replied as Nina sat near her and laid back with her.

"It's fine, just ignore them and sleep as much as you want because you deserve it," Nina said.

"Hmm, well look at you, aren't you being petty," Yan replied and Nina chuckled then looked at him before sitting up.

"Yes, with Adora I can be, got a problem?" Nina asked with a smirk and Adora tapped her behind her head.

"Ouch," she said, looking at Adora, who sighed.

Nina pouted as Adora replied, "Don't torment him."

"I'll deal with you later," Nina said and Yan smirked.

"You're going to fail; I recommend you relax," Yan replied, and Nina sighed.

"I'm not going to win against you," Nina said, and Yan grinned. Adora smiled and patted Nina on the shoulder.

"It's fine, you don't always have to win against the one you adore," Adora replied and Nina smiled.

"You are right, I don't always have to," Nina said as Yan sat down with them and Nina smiled at him, then he patted her on the head and she hugged him.

"You two have a wonderful relationship; I am jealous," Sarah said, and they laughed.

"There's no reason to be jealous; anyone can have such a relationship if you truly value each other, am I right, Nina?" Yan asked, and she glanced at him.

"He's right, Sarah; no need to be jealous; I'm sure you, Adora, and Alix will get your lucky ones," Nina replied, and both Adora and Alix looked at her.

"How did I end up getting involved in this?" Adora inquired, and Alix looked at her.

"Don't you want to find that someone as well, Adora?" Sarah asked and Adora lowered her head.

"Let's just say right now, I have no interest in a relationship with anyone, Sarah," Adora responded.

"Does it have anything to do with what's going on right now, Adora?" Zavis asked, and she sighed as she looked at him.

"You could say that's one of many reasons, Zavis," she responded and he sighed.

"I guess I sort of understand your point of view, it's fine," Zavis replied and she smiled at him.

"What are your reasons, Alix?" Don't you want that special someone, too?" Aerav asked, Alix looked at him and sighed.

"Not sure I am interested as yet Aerav, I am in no place to be in any relationship right about now, I would rather focus on our goal, the situation at hand, once this is over then maybe I will think about it," Alix responded and Aerav sighed.

"At this point, most of us would want to have a happy life, not because we don't, but because we have certain things that we lack and want," Ayden said, and they smiled.

"I agree with Ayden, most of us want things that are out of our reach at the time," Aerav replied, and Adora smiled at them.

"You guys are all great; if we survive this, you can go after whatever you want; I want you guys to always remember you have a choice," Adora said, and they all smiled.

"We know that," Alix replied and she looked at him as he grinned.

"Alix has a mischievous grin," Kyris observed, and Alix turned to face him.

"I'm not sure about that, Kyris, you should see yours," Alix replied and Kyris smirked.

"I don't want to hear this from you two; you're both mischievous anyway," Adora said, and they both smiled.

"I disagree," both Alix and Kyris said as she stared at them and scoffed.

"We'll see about that; it's almost 3 p.m.; we'll be leaving soon," Adora said as she stood up and went into the kitchen, where she poured herself a glass of juice and drank it.

"Well, we've got everything ready, so there's nothing else for us to do, and our next stop will be at home, which won't take long to get to since I checked and noticed it's not far from here," Alix replied, and Adora looked at him.

"We'll be home by tomorrow midday, we're close, we didn't make the base that far away for emergency purposes," Adora said.

"Well, that's good, you won't have to travel that far if anything happens, and teleportation will be simple as well," Alix replied and she before finishing her juice and checked the time.

"Well guys, I think it's time that we get on the ship, it's time and we have to leave or the longer we take to arrive home, besides once we are there, we won't be staying too long, so you guys can go visit your loved ones if you want," Adora said as they got up.

"I think I'll go see my parents," Sarah decided.

"I think I'll go to mine as well, it's been a while," Aerav replied, and Adora smiled as he looked at Ayden.

"I'm not going to visit them, Adora, no matter what," Ayden said as she sighed.

"Not even your mother?" she asked as she approached him, and he lowered his head.

"I understand if you don't want to," she said, and he looked at her before smiling and patting him on the head.

"You really are open-minded, that's for sure, thank you very much, Adora, let's go before it gets late and it's always good to be on time," Ayden replied, and Adora smiled before they all got up and made sure everything around the mansion was locked up and clean.

Adora locked all of the doors after they finished checking everything, then they left the mansion and she checked the security system before getting onto the ship, and after she did, Scott locked the ship up and they took off.
