destined angel (on hold)

those of demon blood -3

I wake up in pure agony, confused on what happened. my eyes flutter open and slowly search the room and find only Alec sitting there looking at me. "What happened?" I ask gently as I let out a groan. I can feel the tail I had being crushed and quickly make it disappear but keep the ears. 

"You were drugged." Alec explains as he holds my hand, gently running his fingers across it. "Fortunately Simon got to you before it was too late." He explains. 

"They tried to kill me." I try to sit up only to let out a small groan of pain and stop. 

"hey, take it easy." Alec says as he fluffs the pillows and makes sure I am comfortable. "They said you could be in a lot of pain for a few days." He explains and I shut my eyes in annoyance. 

I suddenly hear a voice I faintly recognize fill my head. "just revert to your angel form, it will heal you quicker." He says. 

"Michael?" I ask 

"The one and only" He responds and I can practically feel his smirk. 

"Well, thanks for the tip." I say before letting my wings out causing them to curl around me and I instantly feel the pain alleviate. 

"You are mostest of welcome." He says and I let out a small laugh as I sit up properly. 

"Where's Simon, is he okay?" I ask concerned for my mate. 

"He refused to leave the premises." Alec begins and I can already tell I'm not going to like what I hear. "Inquisitor Herondale had him taken down to the detention level." I feel annoyance swell in me.  

"She locked up Simon?" I ask through gritted teeth. I throw the quilt off of me ready to go and see Simon when I notice I am now in one of Alec's T-shirts and look at him questioningly. 

"Simon changed you." He explains and I'm not entirely sure how to feel about it before deciding to leave it. 

"I'm gonna shower and get dressed then I am going to see Simon." I say before walking into my ensuit. I keep my wings as I know they are the only reason I am not in pain at the moment and just work around them. When I get out I get dressed in a burgundy dress that was pulled down a bit in the middle with some fabric in a bow hanging down and had two thin straps with the same things on the shoulders. I throw on some burgundy heels and put my hair in a fresh braid crown. 

Once I am dressed I head to the detention level to see Simon. I walk with my wings folded behind me and stride with purpose ignoring everyone around me. I find Duncan guarding the door to the cells. "You can't be down here." He tells me and I feel annoyance flare in me. 

"I have clearance." I state annoyed at the man. 

"Not anymore, inquisitors orders." He responds. 

"So let me get this straight, you are telling me that I can't go and see my soulmate who wouldn't leave because I was hurt and don't expect me to retaliate?" I ask with annoyance and a hint of anger lacing my tone. 

"Is that a threat?" He asks and I smile before freezing his feet to the ground and walking right in. "Hey, stop, come back here." He calls after me but I freeze the door shut. 

"Simon." I call out as I run up to the glass. 

"Adelina, oh thank god you are okay." he says as he also rushes to the door. 

"I'm fine, but I can't stay long, I promise I will get you out of here." I say with a soft smile. 

"I trust that you will." He says and I hear footsteps in the hall and sigh. I make myself invisible and walk through the door. They all rush in looking for me confused when they don't spot me and I just walk straight to the elevator. 

I walk off the elevator and find Jace and am suddenly filled with anger towards him. "So Imogen says to lock up Simon and you just let it happen?" I ask with clear annoyance in my voice as I advance towards my blond shadowhunter mate that appears to be having an identity crisis. 

"Adelina, I tried to help Simon." He points out and goes to pull me in for a hug but I push him away. "You know I wouldn't have done any of this if he hadn't broken Clave rules." Jace continues keeping his distance this time. 

"Oh so suddenly you're into rules." I say and I can tell I am taking all of my anger out on him and I will hate myself later but I find myself unable to stop. "You know, Jace Herondale might have some kind of family name to live up to, but the Jace I know would break any rule for the people he cares about." 

"People are dying, people I've known my entire life, people I trained with. There are no easy choices right now. A team just found Lockheart dead." Jace explains quietly. 

"And we've just caught his killer." Imogen says as she walks over with a cuffed Maya. 

"Maya, what's going on?" I call out in surprise. 

"Lockheart was mauled by a wolf, Ms. Roberts was found a block away, minutes after the kill." Imogen explains. 

"I was walking home from work. what is that a crime now too?" Maya asks and I feel my annoyance steadily increase into anger. 

"Did anyone see you walking home from work?" Imogen asks. 

"It's New York City a lot of people were a block away." I state in annoyance. 

"An hour ago, this wolf viciously attacked Jace for carrying out a Clave mandate." I feel my annoyance freeze and turn to shock before turning into burning hot Fury at Maya's nest words. 

"To put tracking chip in my neck. You know I've been stopped by the cops for no other reason than being black, but I thought the Shadowhunter's were more evolved than that." She says and I freeze. 

"I'm sorry lets go back to the tracking chip thing, I am hearing that correctly right?" I ask and several people nod. "I see, I guess I hadn't realized all downworlder's have suddenly turned into mindless animals. I was under the impression that we all had human minds." I say with mocking confusion. "Is that why you are chipping them like animals, like pets?" I ask. 

"The Clave has always been able to track Shadowhunter's through their rune's, this is no different." Imogen explains and goes to walk away when I grab her arm and make claws come out digging into her skin causing her to cry out in shock and slight pain. 

"Did I say you could leave?" I practically growl out. "And there is a difference, we choose to give ourselves rune's and can turn it off, these chip's won't." I say through gritted teeth. I pause and take a deep breath and put a smile on my face as I release her arm. "You see I don't get angry often so people don't realize how truly terrified they should be when I am, And this, treating living breathing intellectual beings no different from yourselves like animals makes me very angry." I see her go to speak so I shut her down as I spread out my wings. 

"Cause unlike you prejudiced assholes that think you are better than someone else because of your blood I am not like that, despite being a pure fucking angel. I choose to stay here on earth instead of in heaven with the others because I want to help and I don't see a difference between myself and Maya. I mean she can turn into a wolf, so can I. I can do so much worse as well. So unless you want to face the full wrath of an extremally angry angel I suggest you start doing something right."
