Matthew Daddario imagines

I never wanted to hurt you

 You stared up at the bright lights as they changed color in the otherwise dim room.

Alec's large hand was placed on your lower back, guiding you through the crowd. You stopped at the bar, and Alec ordered you both a drink. He handed you a small shot glass with containing an amber liquid. You downed it, feeling the bitter taste dance on your tongue and smooth down your throat. Alec did the same, before setting his glass down on the bar. His face twisted into a sour expression, causing you to giggle.

Suddenly Alec's phone began to ring, barely noticeable over the music. "It's Jace, I'm gonna go outside and answer, you be good now" he said leaning down and pecking your lips gently. You smiled and rubbed his shoulder blade as he walked away, disappearing into the crowd of dancing people.

"What's a pretty girl like you doing alone in a place like this?" You heard a voice say as you felt hot, unfamiliar breath behind your ear. "I'm not alone" you said bluntly, not wanting to speak to anyone besides who you came here with. You just wanted to let loose and dance your week off. "I don't see anyone else here?" The voice said before coming to stand in front of you. It was a wolf, judging by the large build, glowing eyes, and light scruff. He leant on the bar in front of you, leaning in close.

"Well they went to take a phone call" you replied standing up. "You're a feisty one, I like it" he said with a smug smirk on his face. You rolled your eyes as you began to walk away, not wanting to hear the cocky guy speak anymore. He quickly put a stop to that, grabbing your wrist in one hand and your waist in the other. He pulled you into him so that your back was pressed to his chest. He held one of your hands to your chest, and entangled his fingers with the other by your side. "Not so fast little one" he whispered into your ear, pressing kisses to your neck. "Will you just-" you began before being cut off "What the fuck?" You heard a familiar voice yell. Alec. Shit. He probably thinks something else was going on.

"Get off of her dude!" Your tall boyfriend yelled, ripping you guy off of you before shoving him into the bar. "She loved every second of it" he spat with yet another smug smirk. "You keep away from her, or I'll beat you into the ground" Alec said, grabbing the wolf's collar and yanking on it. "Whatever you say man" the guy said, throwing his hand up in defeat. "Damn shadowhunter guys, always so possessive" he muttered as he walked away.

Alec grabbed your hand and dragged you out of the club. You were pretty sure if it wasn't dark his face would be bright red. "What the fuck was that! I leave for two minutes and your already grinding on some other guy!" He shouted, throwing his hand in the direction of the club. "I wasn't grinding on him, I was trying to get away and he grabbed me, that's all that happened!" You snapped defending yourself. "Maybe if you could go without jumping on some random guy for 5 minutes this wouldn't have happened" he sneered rolling his eyes. "Excuse me? You know what i don't have time for your bullshit Alec, I'll be in the car" you barked. He wasn't the only one who could yell.

Your heels clicked on the sidewalk as you quickly walked to the car, Alec shuffling a few feet behind you. You quickly reached the car, Alec way behind you. You stood there for several seconds, shivering in the nippy air. "Unlock the car" you eventually grumbled. He looked at you before looking back at the car. Any other time, no matter how angry he was with you, Alec would've unlocked the car. He hates seeing you shiver. But tonight was different.

"Are you actually mad?" You scoffed as he finally reached the drivers door and unlocked the doors. You slid in and shut your door, pulling a hoodie from the back seat and laying it over you. "Try fucking furious" he fumed, slamming his door and starting the car.

The rest of the ride was silent. Both of you refusing to look at each other. Once he stopped the car in front of the institute, you jumped out and sped up to the door, opening it and shutting it quickly. You walked up to your shared room and sat on your bed, popping your heels off your feet with your toe.
