If you do like, be sure to follow, favorite, or write a review, it always helps me get the next chapter out quicker. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy some merman!Alec.
All characters belong to Cassandra Clare.
Isabelle hurried down the river's edge, her whip curled around her arm and glinting softly in the light of sunlight.
"Izzy," She heard a voice and quickly turned around to see if it was who she hoped it was. She hurried down towards the river, cautiously picking her way through the rocks to make her way to the dark haired and blue eyed creature.
"Hey, Alec," She said softly, not wanting to catch the attention of someone who might happen to pass by. "I just came down to tell you that dad never came back last night. He said that the Clave had extended his time there, so he can't get back for a while," she explained quickly, a sadness twinkling lightly in her eyes.
"Oh," was all that Alec replied with, still partially hidden within
the water. Slight disappointment tinged his voice, but at the same time he was relieved. Robert may say he loves him, but it was hard to believe at times, most times that is. "Well, I bet he wants to come back, he probably misses you," Alec replied, trying his best to be the brotherly figure that she thought of him as and reassure her. She simply nodded, gazing off into the distance, watching the sun rise over the landscape of buildings.
"How's Max and Jace? I haven't seen them in a while," Alec started, interrupting the comfortable silence between them. She perked up slightly at the mention of Max, she had always loved him quite a bit.
" Max is doing good, he's been hanging out with Clary and Jace a lot. Clary has been taking him down to the manga store that she promised to take him to a while ago, and he seems to really be enjoying it. Jace has just been enjoying his time with Clary," Isabelle finished. Alec nodded. He had a feeling that Jace would be doing something that involved Clary. His parabatai seemed to be attached to that girl at the hip.
He sighed softly. "Well that's good," he said sincerely. Izzy checked the phone she had been cradling in her arms.
"I've got to get going before people know that I'm gone," she said quickly, starting to make her way back up the jagged rocks. "You really need to come back to the institute sometime soon," She started as she turned around to face him, her beautiful dark eyes meeting his bright blue ones. "I know that it makes you feel a little sick, but mom worries about you, whether you believe it or not, and she wants to see you again. Plus, demons have been absolutely everywhere lately, we could use your help,"
She turned around and continued up, not waiting for a response, and was soon hurrying down the sidewalk and back towards the institute, her whip shining in the early light of day. Alec leaned against the rocks, looking at the sunrise, now alone. His life was a mess right now. He looked down into the water, catching the glint of black scales hovering under the surface. He felt like he had been cursed, forsaken by the angel Raziel himself. He didn't have anything against merpeople, he just wasn't particularly fond of having the blood of a merperson somehow in him.
I hope you enjoyed the first chapter, and as I said before, please follow, favorite, or review, because it is always very encouraging to see that you enjoyed the story!
