"By the Angels, (y/n)! What do you think you're doing?!" Alec yelled through the room the second he entered. He was angry. Something that he hadn't done ever before but also something you still had expected. He could be grumpy, yes, but he always had his emotions under control.

But apparently not when it came down to his family...

"I did the right think by agreeing to the marriage", you gave back as calmly as possible.
"I was the one our parents wanted to engage with somebody (y/n), not you."

"This is about the family name but also about the institute, Alec", you explained. "Maybe I am not a Lightwood but your parents took me in when I didn't had anyone left. By marrying this guy, the institute will be in our hands and safe."

"You don't even know him!"
"You wouldn't have know the girl either!", you remembered Alec. "And other than for you, there is a change that this guy and I ... maybe we can fall in love. We both know that you and the girl will never."

"So you did it for me?", Alec asked and the way he looked at you almost broke your heart.
"For you, for your family. I am thankful for everything you did for me. You gave me a home and I'll protected that, if you want me to or not. I want you to be happy, Alec."
