Malec Tales Series 1- The Nephilim and the Warlock- Beauty and the Beast AU

Chapter 4: No Prince Charming

Magnus Pov- I didn't sleep all night long. After escorting Alec to his bedroom I was shocked by him invitation to join him for breakfast.

If you want to call what he did an invitation. The way he asked, it was like he didn't really want to have breakfast with me. if that's the case, why even ask?

Still, he did invite me so I need to be on my best behavior. Can not show any resentment or give him reason to withdraw from me.

Groaning, I turned onto my stomach and plopped my face in my pillow. Why would I stress myself so much over a Shadowhunters approval?

Sure, he is our one last chance to keep our souls, but is there even a chance I could fall in love with him?

I know I can phisically. He has the black hair and blue eyes that I just adore more than anything else.

He is phisically appealing but so far his personallity isn't something to fall for. He is very defensive and crabby.

That just might be his way of protecting himself though. God knows my additute toward him and his kind is my way of protecting myself.

Something tells me this isn't what he's actually like. If I can break through his defensive wall, maybe I will find someone worth loving behind it.

Groaning, I hid my face deeper into my pillow.

Just because I could possibly fall in love with him doesn't mean he will fall in love with me. There's no possible way.

A knock on the door disturbed my thoughts making me sigh and lift my head.

"What is it?"

Raphael's voice came through the door saying, "Breakfast is ready Magnus. Simon is waking Alec now as well."

"I'll be right down" I called, tossing my blankets back and hopping out of bed. I made my way to my wardrobe, wondering how I should dress.

I don't want to look like I'm trying too hard but at the same time, I also don't want to be a slob.

I have all the latest styles of clothing. Just because I've been locked away in a castle for hundreds of years doesn't mean I'm not with all the trends.

My magic still works outside these walls. I only use it to get clothes and food for my friends and I.

I really shouldn't have listened to Simon when he begged me to get him shirts with superheros and mundane cartoons on them. It's all he ever wears.

Raphael's taste in clothing is more refined but it was also expensive. It would cost me a arm and a leg if I actually paid for the clothes.

Everyone else in the house had simple clothes. Tessa loved wearing her old victorian clothing most of the time and Ragnor wore jeans and button up shirts. As for catarina, she wore scrubs because she likes how comfortable they were.

My fashion sense varied depending on the centery. Right now I was into skinny jeans and loose fitting shirts.

Also glitter... well, everywhere.

Deciding that I wanted to actually make an effort to look good for Alec, I chose to wear my black skinny jeans with glitter inbedded on them, a light blue tangtop that matched his eyes, and I spiked up my hair slightly.

Maybe if Alec see's I dressed up for him, he will be impressed. I wonder what thought he put into dressing for me? His wardorbe is full with nice options for him to choose.

Feeling surprisingly giddy, I quickly left my bedroom and made my way to the dining room. I hopped down the stairs with a slight pep in my step. That felt strange but nice.
