MAGNUS'S POV

Last night at the party, Jo had just started shaking and she had passed out. I couldn't help but think that it was all my fault. Maybe I had something she was allergic to... I don't know. I wish that I could take last night back.

Alec came walking in the room. "We need to find out what exactly happened last night. Valentine warned her about her 14th birthday, or someone did. They knew that something was going to happen last night." He frowned and crossed his arms.

I stood up and held him close. "I think that it was me. What if she doesn't wake up Alexander? That will be my fault."

"No, it won't." I started to protest but he put a finger up to my lips and continued. "We were all warned. We just thought that it was something to scare us. Somebody out there knows something. We just need to find them." He kissed my forehead and continued holding me.

Isabelle came running out of Josephine's room. "Magnus! You need to come quickly!" She bolted back to where she came from.

The door opened for a split second and I heard screaming. I ran into the room. I saw Jo writhing in pain and screaming with her eyes shut. "What's happening to her?" Izzy was frantic.

I looked at everyone's faces. My head fell. "I don't know." Let me try something. I felt the familiar rush of magic to my hands as I ran them over her. I felt nothing wrong with her. "Everything feels normal. Whatever it is, has got to be internal."

She suddenly stopped thrashing and took a deep shuddering breath. Her head snapped back and her eyes flew open. I saw cat eyes just like mine, but a deep beautiful blue.

She sat up quickly and the eyes faded just as quickly as they had come

She sat up quickly and the eyes faded just as quickly as they had come. "Magnus!" She looked around panicked until she saw me. I sat down and grabbed her hand. "Magnus, I don't know what's happening to me. You have to help me."

I could see how worked up she was getting. Wind started blowing through the room. The more panicked she was getting the more things were flying about the room. Her cat eyes were back.

"Josephine, you need to calm down. You're only going to make things worse." I grabbed her hands.

She ripped her hands from mine. "No! It's already worse."

Alec motioned for me to move. "Josephine, I know that this is scary, we can help you. Only if you can calm down. Look around you, look at them. Do you want to hurt them?"

The wind stopped immediately. She looked at Alec. "What is happening to me?"

The dread in my stomach grew heavier. "I know exactly what happened."

Everyone turned to look at me. "She was injected with warlock blood. The stasis wasn't making you slowly age. It was the warlock blood."

Jace looked confused. "So, whose blood was it?"

I looked down at the ground. "Mine."

Everyone in the room turned to look at me. "How do you know?" Jace stepped closer to me.

"I am the only warlock with cat eyes. Mine are the color they are because of my personality, I would take it as hers being that as well. I, I'm sorry." I turned and walked out of the room.

Alec came walking out behind me. He grabbed my shirt and shoved me up against a wall. He kissed me seductively. "You know it's not your fault Magnus." He whispered into my ear in a husky voice. He kissed me again, slowly and gently. I kissed him back. His kisses grew more urgent. Mine did too. I pushed my hands up under his shirt. He pushed himself off of me. I felt my face fall.

He held up one finger. "Hold that thought. Bedroom." He ran into Jo's room to tell them we'd be back later.

I walked, trying to be dignified. I just couldn't. With the thought of Alexander, I flat out sprinted to my apartment to wait for him. I got so many weird looks from people wondering why I was jumping over cars and everything.

I opened the door to my apartment and saw Alexander waiting for me on the silk sheets of our bed. "How did you beat me?" I was genuinely confused. Unless...

"Clary." He smirked. "Her runes do come in handy. Mine do too... He pulled out his stele and ran it over his stamina, strength, and flexibility runes."

I sat down next to him. "I'm all sweaty. Let me take a shower first."

He pouted. "You're going to get all sweaty anyways..." He smirked at that.

I wasn't used to Alexander being the seductive one. I usually did that. My want to shower faded and well... you know the rest...
