Jace POV
It made sense. That Sebastian would be able to send a message directed from the Faire folk. They had worked for him in the past, been loyal to that bastard. They didn't care for the cold peace.
Clary prepared her throat, proceeding to read it out.
"Clarissa." Clary's face contorted in disgust but continued.
"I said I would come for you, i will always fight for you. And when you are by my side, we shall and we will fight together. It doesn't matter to me what occurs to others, as long as I have you. I have right to it and I will. Unfortunately I did not interfere with your Parabatai Ceremony sooner therefore I will have to kill him myself. But that isn't my first priority, that will come when I have you. Your my first priority and always will. I shall not share you, and I shouldn't have to. You have me, your brother, your blood who you shall turn to, not some ex downworlder now shadowhunter. Even though my alliances are with them, they are beneath me and I will not have my sister involved with unauthorised beings. Due to you not volunteering to be by my side I shall enforce it. If you do not come with me I shall burn down every inch of The High Warlock of Brooklyn's, Not so secret; Bane's Shaded. I shall burn the name along with those in the safe haven.
A decision should be made from the 3rd day reading this. Brother,"
Clary looked as white as a ghost. I looked up to Alec and Magnus who somehow looked even lighter.
After Max Lightwood-Bane being left on the front step of the Institute, Alec and Magnus had been the ones to take him in. Magnus soon after opened a safe haven for any downworlder child who had been left abandoned or misguided to be provided his safe haven. Alec and Magnus didn't intend for these to be their children as well, but felt obligated to help those who were like their Max. Catarina Loss (Magnus old friend) a Warlock who now spends some of days helping mundanes in hospitals. She also is a big provider for this to work. Catarina usually finds the warlocks and brings them to Magnus' service. Yet Catarina is the one who spends everyday with those children so no one suspects Magnus.
"I have to call Catarina." Magnus said grabbing his phone. He cared for the children there at the haven but that's where Max usually was as well.
My attention was on my Parabatai. I knew what he was feeling, his face said it all.
"Alec. It's going to be okay. Max won't be harmed -" I say.
"AND WHAT? WE ARE GOING TO SEND CLARY WITH SEBASTIAN ARE WE? Because that's the only reason for this to turn out okay for our son." Alec and Magnus were still new parents and had only been doing this for 2 months. And in that time Alec never usually referred to Max as his son.
"And if that did happen that still wouldn't be okay. Because then I would have lost a bestfriend." Alec blurt out his face expressed that he only had just recognised what he had said.
Clary POV
Alec had referred to me as a bestfriend. A loved one. I loved him too. We are all family. And at the end of the day, this was my fault. I wasn't going to let my burdens lay on my family's shoulders.
"Everyone please leave. Except Alec."
"No -" Jace had intervened
"Please." I could hear my own voice trembling. He knew what I was going to do, what I was going to say. He knew me now as equally as Simon did, and he knew me since I was a child. Because he knows me. They all retreated and headed for the door. Jace last, being the one to close it.
"I can't do this right now." Alec said heading for the door
"Please. Alec" Clary said. He walked to a lounge without his tall stride. At that he fell against the lounges.
"So talk, I need to get to Magnus."
Alec said. I knelt in front of him on the lounge.
I intwined my hands with his sitting on his lap. They were shaking. I could see sweat forming in his eyebrows.
"Your my family too. Okay? And I swear on the Angel, I will not let him harm Max. Or any of those children. I would rather die than let that happen." I've never really had an emotional conversation with Alec. So when I felt the tears coming I got up and walked out. I heard him call my name but that didn't matter. I was too far gone to turn around and it would have just waisted time.
A/N - I want you guys to be involved in this as well. Do you think the chapters need to be longer?? Let me know what your thoughts on this are
