Summary:

Catarina falls back onto the couch, her legs seemingly giving out at Alec’s story. About Lorenzo summoning Asmodeus, the threats and the attacks, about Magnus being taken by his father. She just stares off into the distance for what feels like hours, and Alec can barely look at her, waiting, because she has every right to send him away, and he wouldn’t blame her if she did.

“Why did you call?” she asks instead, her voice barely held together, even though her expression is trained into a neutral mask, something Alec recognizes very well.

“I found a spell book that might help, but I can’t read all of it, and I obviously can’t perform any of it,” Alec says, handing Catarina the book. “I was hoping you could help me.”

“Do what exactly?”

“Get to Edom.”

Summary:

The docks aren’t quiet — Magnus can hear dockworkers shouting to each other in the distance and the commotion of moving heavy freight around the area — but in their immediate vicinity, just behind a container, it’s almost silent.

He hears the scrape of metal as Clary unsheathes her seraph sword up ahead and the low rumble of a werewolf’s growl. Eyes flash green in the darkness.

His heartbeat is thick in his ears, thudding with anticipation. He’s ready to fight and ready to win — who are these people, coming into his city and killing his friends?

Magnus measures his breathing.

In. Out.

Sick Magnus

Summary:

It was over. They’d won. Valentine was dead and the Downworld was safe once again.

It was supposed to be over… so how did he end up there – barely able to keep himself conscious and upright even in the position he was in, groveling pathetically on his knees.

It was supposed to be over, but instead Alexander was going to die. He was going to be ripped apart by the demon barreling towards him and Magnus could do nothing but watch helplessly as another person he loved died before his very eyes.

Summary:

“You’re pushing a lot of people away.” Alec comments.
“What else is new,” Magnus mutters in response.
“Don’t worry. You still have me.” Alec smiles softly at him, and Magnus can feel a physical clench around his heart, but doesn’t show it.
“Well that’s a relief,” Magnus says dryly.
Alec laughs. The sound echoes in Magnus’s ears.

Summary:

“I won’t tell,” Max is saying, and Alec is already halfway out of the bed when the child’s voice answers with a small: “Okay.”

There are a few moments of silence, interrupted by the raffling of sheets, and then: “I like the room.”

More silence, and: “It’s just too quiet.”

Alec glances at Magnus, worrying his lower lip between his teeth.

Max says: “You can stay with me,” sleep dragging his words a bit, “Dad and Papa say I’m never quiet.”

Magnus and Alec both snort.
