Only You | Shadowhunters [Alec Lightwood]

17

Sophia ran through the institute rushing to get to Alec's room after Magnus called her informing the brunette that through an attempt to track Jace, Alec had lost consciousness.

She put a strand of hair behind her ear holding Alec's hand tightly while Magnus used his magic trying to bring the shadowhunter back, "It's not working." Izzy remarked glancing at Magnus who sighed stopping his magic.

"I'm sorry, Isabelle. Parabatai bonds are like a tether that binds two souls. Jace and Alec share emotions, instincts, strength. It's an angelic bond. My magic can only do so much." He informed the black haired woman as Sophia muted the rest of conversation seeing as it turned to talk about Jace.

After a while someone was knocking on the door, Sophia was about to stand up to answer it but Magnus beat her to it answering the door himself.

He slammed the door after a few seconds of talking with whoever was on the other side of the door, "Was that Jocelyn?" Sophia wondered using a napkin to wipe the sweat off of Alec's forehead.

Magnus nodded approaching the brunette, "He's going to be okay, Snowpea." He assured Sophia putting his hand on her shoulder.

She nodded turning to look at Magnus, "Thank you."

"Best team. Best team." Alec called out still in his delirious state, Sophia only held his hand tighter whispering in his ear, "It's okay, Alec. You hear me? We're gonna get you out of here and bring you back." She assured him.

All of a sudden,Aldertree barged into the room in fury, "You put in a request to transfer your brother to Idris?" He questioned stating right ahead at Izzy who stood up facing him

"My parents put in the request." She answered calmly as Sophia stood up ready to back up her friend.

"Alec isn't leaving this institute. I'm sure his warlock friend can figure something out. Here." He demanded when Magnus shook his head at the head of the institute's request.

"This isn't waking Sleeping Beauty with a kiss. Runic power is deep. It requires magic that can't be accessed in the walls of this institute." Magnus explained with a scoff as he watched the man.

"I don't know what you're up to, and, ultimately, I don't care. But as far as I'm concerned, your brother is too weak to be Portaled." Aldertree informed them before his eyes settled on the brunette, "And you, Sophia. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave."

"What?" She questioned with furrowed eyebrows staring at the man in a questioning gaze, "You're not doing anything to help."

"And you are?" Sophia retorted with a scoff, "You're just using Alec as bait to arrest Jace."

"No, I'm working to capture the fugitive who put Alec in this position. I've allowed this warlock into the Institute for the sole purpose of treating your boyfriend." He explained to her.
