TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual assault scene ahead.Nothing extreme though.

I hate telling people what they're going to read in a chapter ahead of time, but, I know reading this kind of stuff, no matter how mild, can bring up unwanted memories and emotions. Especially when you're not expecting it.

Chapter 12

"According to my contacts she's formed some kind of alliance with Azazel and Abaddon."

"What?" Magnus gasped, eyes wide. "So my mate isn't the main reason for your impromptu visit after all?" It wasn't a question.

"I'm afraid not, though this will affect him as well." Asmodeus sighed.

"How so?" asked Magnus. Though he supposed he shouldn't be surprised at what he was hearing. He had longed suspected her to be plotting something, even before he had left Edom. But then again, when wasn't she plotting something.

After his father's highly unwelcomed interruption, Magnus had promptly created a portal, bringing Alexander home, and the two were now seated in his living room.

"Now that you've found your mate..." His father explained. "I'm sure she'll have him in her sights. He's not safe."

His father was right, Magnus thought as he got to his feet and began pacing the room, his fingers dancing anxiously at his sides. If Lillith was building an alliance to overthrow him and his father, then, she would use anyone and anything she could against them. He had no doubt that she would use Alec to get to him if she found out that the omega was his mate.

"So what do you want me to do?" Magnus asked, sighing as he combed his fingers through his hair. He already knew what the answer was going to be.

"I need you back in Edom as soon as possible. You're stronger there..." said Asmodeus. "And we're stronger together. I have no doubt that she will take your absence as an oppertunity to attack. Which one of us she'll go after first though, I'm not sure."

"And Alexander?" Magnus' brows raised in question. There was no way in hell he was going to leave Alec behind. Even if he does have an entire shadowhunter army to protect him.

"How long until you're able to complete the mating bond and rituals?" Asmodeus asked. He really hated having to be the bearer of such bad news, ruining what was a happy moment for his son. But what could he have done? The moment he got word from his informant about what was happening, he knew he had to warn him immediately.

"Not for another two months," said Magnus. "And even then, how can I ask him to leave his family and follow me to Edom... especially with the possibility of a war looming?" Magnus' heart wanted to break out of his chest, it was so restless. What was even happening? Less than an hour ago he was the happiest man in the world. He was riding high. Now...now his happiness and his family was being threatened. "Can he even survive in Edom?" he asked. "Mom couldn't."

"That's because your mother was a mundane, son," Asmodeus explained as he moved to his feet. "This Alexander, your mate, he's also part nephillim and an omega. Once you complete the mating bond he'll be able to share in your strength. That was always one of the beauties of omega's. When they mate, they're able to inherit, take on certain characteristics of their mates. They are truely able to become one with their mates."

Placing a comforting hand on his son's shoulder, "Don't worry son. Once you're able to claim Alexander, you'll never have to leave his side. He'll forever be yours."
