Chapter 8
Izzy's Pov
Izzy's eyes widened as she put together the pieces. "Magnus did this?" Alec shook his head. "Well, no! Uh, sorta. He didn't mean it. You can't tell anyone. Please, Izzy." Izzy looks doubtful. "Can he fix it?" Izzy asks. "I-I don't know Izzy." Alec walks over to the chair and buries his head.
"If he can fix his mistake, we won't have a problem. Just trust Magnus. I think he can do it." Alec shakes his head frowning. "There's more to this. That demon is his father." He says spitting out the word "Father". Izzy's face falls. "Oh god. It's fine Alec. We'll figure something out." Alec nods as he heads out.
*Back at Magnus's loft*
"Darshan Sereph Desole!" Magnus screams as he tries to use a spell to lure his father back. Magnus knew that his energy was low, so he slumps down. "Magnus Bane. You're a complete idiot." He mutters to himself. He tries once more, putting everything he had into it. Alec walks in but stops as he sees Magnus.
"What are you doing? Haven't you exerted yourself enough?" Alec runs over before Magnus could finish the spell. "This is my fault. I'm just fixing it." Magnus says bitterly. "You can fix it tomorrow. Stop doing this to yourself." Alec grabs Magnus as his knees buckle. When Magnus woke up, he was tucked neatly in bed. He gets up and snaps his fingers to dress himself up.
Alec walks into the room. "Any news on Asmodeus?" He asks. Alec's eyes narrow. "You really wanna know?" Magnus nods, bracing himself. "4 mysterious deaths. 3 Shadowhunters and 1 downworlder." Magnus inhales sharply. He runs into the library and pulls out a book. He opens it up and tells Alec to move out of the way.
"Ok then." Alec says, offended by the hostility. He sits down and watched Magnus. Magnus starts the spell, and he repeats it again and again before he cried out in frustration. "Fucking hell!" He curses as he shatters the antique vases.
Alec stands up and walks over to Magnus. "Magnus, don't get worked up for nothing! You have to stop." Magnus glares at him. "PEOPLE ARE DYING BECAUSE OF WHAT I DID ALEXANDER!" Alec steps back, his eyes closed as tears fall out slowly. "Alec." He starts as his voice starts to crack.
