Tessa walked into the library, book in hand.
"Hello Alec, it's very nice to meet you, Magnus has told me so much about you"
"He has?" Alec looks at his boyfriend
"All good things I promise" Tessa told him
"So how come you've heard about me and I haven't heard about you? Especially since my Mother is the head of this institute and she failed to tell me we were getting a new tutor so soon"
"Alec! there's no need to be rude"
"No it's quite alright, I'm sure Maryse would've gotten around to it" Tessa told him, sitting down opposite Alec and Magnus, her book on her lap. Alec craned his neck to see the title, Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, that's a dark book for a young lady, Alec thought. Tessa noticed what Alec was looking at.
"Have you read Dorian Gray Alec?" Tessa asked him
"Yes, it's quite dark"
"I know, and I only keep this copy with me for sentimental purposes"
"It belonged to someone you loved?"
"Yes, and it also reminds me of him"
Magnus smiled knowingly, Alec caught it
"You know who that is don't you?" Alec asked him, and before Magnus could answer, Alec realised who the woman in front of them was.
"You're Tessa Gray, Will's lover"
"Alec! A bit of sensitivity"
"No its alright, yes I am" Tessa placed the book on the coffee table in front of her, "as soon as the others get here we'll begin our lesson"
