Saved By Our Love (Sequal to TBOL) Discontinued

Chapter 1

My father placed an angry scowl on me, then turned it to Magnus. My heart raced with fear. Not for myself, no. For Magnus. My father always said that people were put on this Earth to love the opposite gender. On top of that, he despised downworlders. I didnt see this going well at all. Robert had told my family he wouldnt be able to make it to this reunion. I saw now how wrong that was. Instead of backing down, Magnus returned the scowl and stepped hesitantly in front of me.

"Good evening, Mr. Lightwood." He said calmly, though the strain in his voice told it all. Robert eyed him with disapproval and then turned to me again.

"Alexander, what it this warlock doing here with you." He spat the word warlock like iit was poison on his tongue. My fists clenched at my sides and I looked to Magnus for a split second.

"Dad, meet Magnus Bane. Not as the High Warlock you already kknow him as. I want you to meet my boyfriend." I said coldly. He stared in astonishment at me, and before I could think he had grabbed Magnus by the front of the shirt. Even though my dad was much shorter then Magnus, he still looked intimidating.

" I dont know what you have done to turn my boy into your faggot kind, but stay away from him. I dont want you near him anymore. If I so much as see you looking at him I will be sure that the Clave comes and tears you limb from limb." Rabert spoke with a tone as hard as stone, but Magnus hardly looked phased.

"Please do forgive me, but I do believe that is Alexanders choice. And above that, I havent done anything wrong for the Clave to want to go after me." Magnus said, and he almost sounded bored with this conversation. I heard footsteps approaching. When I turned I saw Isabelle standing behind me, her face a mask of horror. She raced up toour father and pulled him away from Magnus.

"What do you think you are doing?" She asked in a superior voice. I saw confusion twist Roberts features, but that too turned to pure anger.

"Isabelle, go get your mother. This is certainly not any business of yours." He ordered, but my sister didnt budge. She just crossed her arms and eyed him.

"Dad, I have seen them together. It is clear to me that they are in love. If you cant handle that your son is in love, then I have to ask you to leave us all alone." She snapped back. I winced at my fathers red face of rage. By the Angel, he looked like he was about to rid someones head off.

"You have known about them, and you havent even bothered to speak to me about it? To inform me. I would be perfectly fine if Alec was in love with a girl. At the moment he is only being blind, dumb, and he isnt thinking about what he is doing. I can almost promise you that soom he himself will be disgusted with his actions." That was the last straw. I pushed past Magnus and stood eye to eye with my father. Within seconds I had him pinned to the wooden dock. The smell of salt water cleanly reached my nose. I pressed my fourarm against him throat before I began to speak.

"You know nothing about me. I love Magnus more then you will ever understand. Now, I expect you to get up, and walk away. Leave me and my boyfriend alone, or bad things will happen." My voice came out in more of a growl. It was low enough so I knew that only Robert had heard me. He let out a laugh, and then pushed me off of him. As he walked away he shoved Magnus out of his way, sending him into the water below.

I raced towards then edge of the dock, just in time to see Magnus' head appear above the surface. His makeup was running, and the glitter had come clean off. Not only that, but his colorful ararangement of clothes was soaked and sticking to his body. I raced towards the edge of the shore and helped pull him in. I expected him to be angry about what had just happened, and I readied to apologize. Instead, he was laughing.

"Well, the night was fun at first, darling. Dont let your father put you in such a down mood. We will be fine. I promise." He said, and placed a quick kiss on my fourhead. I looked back up at the dock to see Izzy smiling at us. Also, Jace was by her side. I helped Magnus up and raced to see him.

"Not exactly the best turn of events, but it was entertaining." He said, as Magnus slowly appeared behind me. I rolled my eyes.

"Anything that involves a fight is entertaining to you, Jace." I said. He just shook his head, and pointed at Magnus.

"No, thats funny. I am sorry, Alec. But its true." I shook my head, and then started walking back towards the taxi that was waiting for us. I knew Magnus was following, so that wasnt a problem. I had enough of tonight, and I just wanted to be back home. With Magnus.
