Alex Mcknight is the first born son of Emelia and Elliot Mcknight and heir to the throne of Sephonia.

## Early Life

During book three, Descent, Mia becomes extremely ill, unknowingly due to her first pregnancy. After a few weeks, the sickness doesn't let up at all and she tries to play it off as stress due to what's going on around her. But, she eventually comes to the conclusion that she's indeed pregnant and is excited yet scared. She tells Elliot and together, they plan a celebration to announce the pregnancy.

Mia waits several weeks to tell Mak, due to her severely low mental health at the time. Mak sees the bump that Mia has been hiding under her clothes and gets upset that she never told her. Mia explains why after they stop fighting and everything becomes peaceful again.

A few more months go by. Mia is sitting in the bath tub when she gets a searing pain from the bottom of her stomach that spreads down to her legs. She tries to ignore it for several minutes but it continues getting stronger each time. She yells for Elliot to help her and so he does. They come to the conclusion that their baby is on the way and now it's just a matter of time. Mia lays down on the bed, in severe pain, and begs for him to just come out already but he's stubborn and takes hours.

Exhausted and In pain, Mia starts to needing to push the baby out and then Alexander Julien is born on February 20th, 1867 at 6 AM, weighing 8 pounds exactly.

Nearly Two weeks after his birth, his Aunt tries to commit suicide and it leaves the family shattered, specifically Mia but Alex, just a tiny baby, somehow helps his mother through it.

## Personality

During the main series, Alex is a shy, timid child who prefers to observe those around him. He's incredibly smart for his age and has an impressive vocabulary, even though he doesn't talk much. He's very affectionate and emotional but his parents think thats a gift, not a weakness.

Alexander loves to read books, old fairytales just like his mother and loves to read stories to his siblings, even though they're too young to understand.

## Appearance

When he appears towards the end of Descent, he's often seen being carried around, wrapped in a white, knitted blanket with a small tuft of dark brown hair and a blue pacifier.

During Irenic, Alex appears to be a lot older and has light brown curly hair and big blue eyes. He is small in width but tall for his age at the same time. Most of the time, he is wearing suspenders with a white button up shirt underneath and brown pants, looking dapper as always.

## Relationships

### Mia Mcknight

"Mummy...do you fink you can open dis thing?" Alex to Mia about a chocolate bar he found.

Since Alex is the first child of four, him and his mother have a special bond. Wherever she is, he's there too admiring her and being her tiny shadow. When the family is placed in the cellar, Alex confides in his mother and leans on her for comfort, falling asleep with his head in her lap peacefully. He knows that as long as she's there with him, he's safe and nothing can touch him.

Alex tends to mimic Mia's emotions; When she's scared, he is scared too and when she's happy so is he.. He's a true mama's boy in and out and nothing can change that side of him (no matter how hard Elliot tries)

### Elliot Mcknight

Alex loves to play wrestle with his father and sit beside him for bed times stories. He truly hopes to be like him one day and admires him greatly. He sees him as the greatest man to ever walk the earth.

Whenever Alex needs help with school, he goes to his father because he knows he'll have the answer. He relies on him for support and love at all times.

### Makayla Rosser-Edwards

"You're the coolest aunt eva...but you wont buy me a toy so you aren't cool right now. Maybe if you buy me a toy, you can be cool again- Alex to his aunt.

When Alex is born, Makayla absolutely falls in love with him. But, in her twisted mind, she fears that she'll harm him and it makes her nervous. After a week, she begins refusing to hold him because of this, no matter how badly she wants to.

When he is seven in the fourth book, he adores his aunt Mak and they are best buddies. She's frequently seen carrying him on her back and calling him her spider monkey.
