Tonight, Lord Bane looks pensive and Alec can feel in his bones, in his heart, that this marriage proposition might end up in an actual deal instead of failing, like they all have before. His heart and hands clench painfully. The pommel of his sword leaves a deep indent in his palm.

Summary:

At his feet, Chairman Meow cries piteously to be fed, and Magnus shoos him off. Plenty of time for that later – he’s at a delicate juncture of the potion, the slightest movement could spell disaster. The good Chairman will understand. They’ve done this plenty of times before.

He does not, in fact, expect the cat to jump onto his table, upsetting the bottle of dragon’s teeth perched precariously on the edge, flipping one small piece into the bowl. The potion turns a sickly green, it bubbles and smokes. Magnus has one split-second to think, Oh shit.

—

Side effect: telepathy. It’s not as much fun as Magnus thought it would be.
