"Alright...."(he left a sharp breath while looking himself into mirror)

"What do you think church?" He is posing in the mirror standing sideways. Dear church meowed in cheer he liked Magnus's ankle length dress plain purple with light golden shimmer over it, Magnus looked stunning he had a little kohl line over his eye's water line which made his eyes more beautiful and prominent. He had wore tiny buds over his ear helix and just a usual mulberry tint on his lips which uplifted his beauty and made him look more attractive.

"Very well then, raph might be here soon....you both are fed properly so do not spoil my kitchen counter and chairman...(he moved his head towards the kitten who was trying to grab church's tail) do not bother him...leave him alone....(he slightly patted chairman's paw....church hissed at chairman)....both of you be a good boy and don't mess around much I will be back till evening..." church and chairman started to rub their heads against Magnus's palm telling him both of them will miss him.

An hour passed but Raphael didn't appear he looked himself in the mirror several times only to check if anything about his appearance is not right. He rearranged his hairs, his dress and his cloak he wore and wore off his silk gloves 5-6 times as his hands were sweating he was nervous, 'what if his majesty cancels sessions with me?' Thoughts started crowding his mind.

He heard footsteps, he abruptly stood up and went at the door saw Raphael coming towards him "why are you so late??... I am waiting for you since long time...what took you so long?? He changed his mind doesn't he?....at least he could have told me this to my face rather than......" oh my god!!!! And Magnus was rambling, Raphael was very well aware of this is Magnus's tell when he is too anxious and nervous. Raphael laughed and stopped Magnus from talking further.

"Stop....! How much you talk...Raziel!!...(Magnus looked adorable with this grumpy face) stop this marathon inside your head...I am late..."

"Yes...why are you late???tell me now..." Magnus chided.

"Let me talk...(he chuckled in amusement...still watching at grumpy Magnus) his majesty...and I were having a small meeting and never realised it was getting late..."

"Why....a meeting...? With you? Raph is everything alright? Did he say that he doesn't want to see me?...."

"Stop interrupting me....(Raphael wasn't angry at all but he needed to act like he was that was the only way to make Magnus stop talking..when Raphael's gaze smoothen he opened his mouth to talk again but Raphael again glared at him) sh...... now you are gonna listen to me closing this chatter box?( he imitate with his fingers opening and closing the mouth)....we were having conversation about you of course...but...the good one...nothing to worry about" then he smiled.

Magnus sighed and "goodness...! I thought...Raziel!!! Why didn't you tell me this sooner" indeed Magnus has a personality and right now all pissed off, grumpy Magnus is a part of it.

"You never let me talk...I wonder how his majesty survives with you..." raph teased his friend who gave a sarcastic laugh.

"He survive just fine...now take me there...take me to him...." Suddenly Magnus felt the same nervousness hitting him again which of course Raphael sensed.

"Alright...but I need to tell you something... just to be aware...his majesty knows that you were the boy I saved three years ago in south-north of Valentina and lord herondale and carstairs were involved in your rescue...and also about Leela (Magnus's eyes widened hearing this...how can the king could know about his mother) not everything but...I told him that you and her are blessed by Raziel himself when you were in her womb and you are an empath a fairy just like her your blood is scented and very one of a kind just like her.....(Magnus couldn't understand why all this information is relevant with his visit to the palace, after seeing Magnus's confused face Raphael continued) he confronted me... about all the events happened in the past how I suddenly disappeared and the craven's attack on Valentina...he figured it out himself..but I didn't tell him the real truth about you...and dear! It's your choice to tell him or not to tell him...even Ruelle will also agree whatever you decide." Raphael's expressions were sympathetic.
