Our Desire (Alec Lightwood)

Our Hearts Are Different

Skip to Magnus's Lair:

Kiana Pov

We moved on from the downworlds club and eventually found where Magnus had his hideout, it was oddly easy to find which really shock me considering the level of power Magnus has

We entered the massive warehouse we all had our weapons drawn obviously they picked up on how easy it was to get here. It was weird having Clary now next to me in our little group formation I knew that she was gonna be a liability at some point tonight I can feel it in my gut, I'm just praying she doesn't get one of us killed, I glance up at Alec to see him very focused maybe it won't be him that Clary gets hurt. I moved my eyes over to Jace. He seemed very distracted. I looked to the floor and then back up to him, his eyes now looking at Clary.

Maybe it'll be him getting hurt.

"Magnus' Lair is right behind the fence, '' Jace said to us pointing out the obvious. Her really was such a narrative kind of character. Hope Clary likes that sort of thing.

"Magnus lives in a warehouse?" Clary looked over to me of all people and questioned "not exactly" I replied back to her with a false smile "Warlock Glamour" Jace said taking over the conversation after realising I had no intentions of explaining to Clary she raised her eyebrows slightly at Jace while he explained she looked a little confused sometime you have to feel a bit sorry for her.

"Somethings wrong" Izzy pointed out "It's far too easy to get this close" "His protective wards must be down" Jace said he observed his surroundings carefully looking back at Izzy.

"You" Alec began to say "Don't get in the way" he finished earning a scowl from Jace. I moved to his side seeing his body tense as I was close to him. "Relax" I whispered to him as we all began to walk towards the fences.

Grunting was heard from in front of us as we saw a circle member killing a warlock. Clary slightly squealed a little "Oh god! Valentine found Magnus!" Clary shouted but before she had finished her sentence we all had already sprung into action.

The other had run off somewhere and I presumed I was the only one with Clary in my sight. Suddenly a little girl came running out of nowhere shouting "Daddy, Daddy" at the dead warlock on the floor.

I saw Clary watching the girl. She obviously noticed I was watching her and everything around her including seeing the circle member move from behind the fence approaching the young girl. "Watch out!" Clary screamed. I presume the girl kicked the traitor shadowhunter out of the way with quite a powerful kick she even had me a little shook. She pulled the girl behind her holding her in place so she wouldn't get hurt "Clary Fairchild" the Circle member said catching her off guard "shit" I whispered to myself I didn't like the girl but I was smart enough to know she was important.

"Valentine would be so pleased to meet you" the man smirked and advanced towards her I jumped into action finally making my presents known to them both I leapt up to his shoulder wrapping my legs round him and swinging him to the floor I rolled on to him and stabbed him straight threw the chest I stood up and looked of at a shocked Clary "Thanks for that" she said a small scared smile grew on her lips Jace appeared on the the ledge above us and told us to hurry Clary looked back at me and I just gave her a little wink of my eye and walked away smirking.

I left Clary next to Izzy and walked towards a room I just had this feeling that I had to go in there "your cats eyes would be a nice addition to my collection"I heard from behind the door I walked and immediately threw my knife towards the man's leg before he made a strike for Magnus.

Magnus swung his hands around gracefully, throwing the circle member to the floor, killing him before his body connected with the ground.

"Well done" Alec said walking in behind us "More like medium rare" Magnus replied back now looking between us both his yellow cat eyes fading away. He walked over to me smirking "I'm Magnus I don't think we've been formally introduced" he smiled back at him "Kiana" I said in coy I heard a huff come from behind me gaining Magnus attention to "This is Alec" I said noticing the tense atmosphere Alec faked smiled at him before walking around me to look around the room Magnus just stood there and continued to stare at me "erm we should men probably get-" "Right, we should join the part" he said cutting me off I looked past him a Alec's screwed up face "come on miserable" I said to Alec causing a chuckle out of Magnus.

We all walked into the room where the others where Jace was sitting tending to a girl's pretty bad head cut and Izzy was helping some guy with his bleeding leg. Suddenly Clary walked into with the little girl from earlier the girl ran straight into Magnus's arms clutching him tight "Go join the others, my dear. This is no place for a little girl" he said to her hurrying her along. She looked up at me as she was walking past and smiled "you're awesome" she said walking over to some other warlocks.

"I heard what you did for Zoe" Magnus began talking to Clary "you risked your life without hesitation to save a young warlock child" "she was just a girl *pause* and she was in trouble, I had no choice" she insisted I turned back into the conversation with Alec not really paying much attention to their conversation anymore.

"You always have a choice" Magnus said back to Clary " your not like the others neither you or Kiana, most shadowhunters protect downworlders out of sense of duty but you saved young zoe because of whats inside your heart your more like your mother than you will ever know.

"Hold tight everyone, we're about to move '' Magnus said now regaining everyone's attention as he waved his hands around again.

The floor started to rumble and things began to wobble before we knew it was in a new location and the lairs wards had now been restored.

We can get down to the real work now.
