Chapter 14
"He's working on it. I'll pick it up and give it to you tomorrow." Izzy's smile widens as she kissed Alec on the cheek. "Thank you, big bro." She sauntered away. Alec had only been in the institute for 30 minutes and he was already done with everyone and everything.
He grumbled slowly as he walked back into his room. His eyes panned to a red paper on top of his desk. It wasn't there before. He opened it up. Inside was a note. "Thank you for accepting my invitation to dinner. I promise you that you and your boyfriend will be well accommodated. Charles."
Alec sighed. It was hard to hate Charles when he was so kind to him. But something was fishy about the guy. "Alec? Where the hell is Magnus?" Jace screams as he runs into the office. Alec sat down at his chair as he glared at Jace. "Jace. There's something called knocking. Please remember it for next time."
Jace crossed his arms. "I need Magnus. Is he here?" Jace asked as he searched the room. "Why the hell do you need Magnus?" Alec was furious now. Jace looked sheepishly at the ground. "I accidentally gave the wrong potion to Simon and now all he can speak in French." Jace looked innocently at Alec, like a 5-year-old who had drawn over the wall with a marker.
Alec groans. "And what would you do if Magnus didn't exist? Hm? Who would fix this then?" Alec asked. Jace rolled his eyes. "Listen, I couldn't care less that Simon can't say a word of English. I'm just doing this for Clary." Simon was at the doorway. "Bonjour Alec!" Simon said nervously.
Alec looked amused. "Yeah. Bonjour kid." Simon walked in. "Je déteste Jace. il m'a transformé en un peu-" Simon spluttered. Alec interrupted him. "Oh jeez just stop talking. I'll see what Magnus can do." Simon nods and sits down. "Is Magnus like the new celebrity or something?"
Alec asked Jace. Jace shrugged. "The shadowhunter girls are all over him. You know, ever since he walked into the institute with that red hair and blue jacket. I really can't wait for him to teach me his ways." Alec fondly smiled at the thought of Magnus's red-streaked hair.
