Hi friends! Sorry it took long to post another chapter on this story. Hope you guys are still with me. Let's read the next chapter. Sorry for mistakes.

Enjoy :-)))

Magnus paced impatiently around the loft. His nerves were on haywire and he wanted nothing but to scream to the whole world that Alec was his. The whole situation sounded some kind of cheesey movie from 40's with the hero forgetting his memories and starting a new life with another family. It hurt him a lot at first but now Magnus felt anger...anger and frustration like he had never felt before

Magnus was furious on the Mortan family. How dare they claim Alec was theirs and that Broadway guy was just being an possessive jerk. He would clearly see how uncomfortable Alec was around him. Was it possible that Alec was pressurized or threatened with something. He had to know. He could...

"Magnus! I forgot to show you this" Jace came running in the loft with Izzy following behind. He held out his hand and showed the red gem he had picked up from where they found Alec "I found this near Alec. There were many of them" /p

Magnus took the gem in his hand and gazed into the piece. "Do you know what it is?" asked Izzy and got a nod from the warlock "I've seen this before" Magnus walked towards his shelf and pulled out a book. He turned the pages until he stopped at the one page which had the same picture of the gem he was holding "By the Lilith. Why didn't I see this before?"

Jace's eyes lit up "What did you find Magnus?" The older man showed the book to the siblings "It's known as Filangee Al Cruso. It consists of seven red gems which holds the power to block..."

Jace frowned "Block what? Memories?" Magnus shook his head "It can block a parabatai rune" Jace's eyes widened while Izzy gasped "I knew it!" yelled Jace his hand touching the rune "Wait wait...this means Alec was made to use these red gems form the minute he was taken so our rune would disappear"

Magnus nodded reading "The rune will still be on your skin but you won't be able to see it or feel each other"

"Their rune is back so it stopped working?" Izzy asked facing Magnus who read the page again "It says the seven gems are to be hold together in a special thread. If you break the thread, rune block will be lifted"

There was a silence for a while before Jace spoke "The lady said Alec was kidnapped by Carlos. Is it possible he might have accidentally broken the thread while he tortured Alec?" Magnus had a deep scowl on his face "Yes but that also means someone is out there who knows about us more than he should"

"What do you mean Magnus?"

Magnus closed the book "Let's go through this once again. Alexander gets taken and at the same moment your parabatai rune is blocked. So we cannot trace him. He goes missing for six months and during this period Alexander has a new life. A mother, brother and ofcourse I wouldn't forget that pesky possessive jerk Broadway"

"I hate him too" Izzy crossed her arms "He is gotta go for good" Magnus grinned at her words "There's still a problem dear"

"What problem?"

Magnus played with his necklaces "When the thread was broken it only undid the blocked spell on the rune. It didn't bring his memories back. I'm sure there is a stronger spell, even unknown to me that has been casted on Alexander which made him forget us"

Jace and Izzy shared a look "We've to know about that spell" said Jace. Magnus nodded "For that I need to get close to Alexander and use Elbatro spell on him"

"What does that spell do?" asked Izzy and saw Magnus rubbing his forehead "It's an old spell in which you can detect if any other spell has been used on you" Izzy's eyes widened with hope "Why didn't you use it on Alec when he was with us!"

Magnus rolled his eyes "I'm sorry Isabelle, I didn't know on waking up Alexander was going to forget us" he said feeling hurt by the accusing tone of Alec's sister. Izzy had a guilty look on her face and she apologised to Magnus "It's okay. Our main focus is to meet Alexander again and use Elbatro spell on him"

"How are we going to do that?" asked Jace and all three adults looked at each other, inwardky hoping that someone would come up with a plan

AT ALEC'S HOUSE

Alec was having dinner with his family and Ethan. He felt relaxed after coming back to his house again. The shadowhunter thought he would never be able to see his family again when he was taken by Carlos,. He still felt like he was in that cold room and any moment the door would open. His eyes became dazed with the spoon in the mid air when he felt a hand on his knees "Sweetheart why aren't you eating?" asked Ethan who was gulping down one bite after another

Nora squeezed Alec's hand "You're back with us son. This is your home. You do remember it don't you" Alec nodded smiling at his mother "It's just...I..this is all so confusing"

"Give some time Alec. You've gone through so much last week. Take few days off from your work and enjoy your time with Ethan"

Alec tensed for a moment but quickly covered his features and smiled half heartedly forcing a bite to his mouth. What was he doing? He is a shadowhunter. He is much stronger than this and has endured many injuries like this before. I should forget about it now that I've been save by...Magnus. Alec was yet again lost in thoughts of the three people who claimed to be his family. Was any of it true? Was he actually in love with a warlock? No! This is insane. This cannot be true. And to top it all he was still feeling the blonde boy's anger and frustration through the rune.

After dinner Ethan kissed Alec who didn't respond as enthusiastically as him but still he kept going until Alec pulled away "Hey don't worry about the rune. We'll find a way to remove it. 'll see you tomorrow babe. I love you"

Alec nodded and gave a small smile. Ethan frowned when he didn't get a reply so he said again "I love you Alec"

"I..I love..you Ethan"

Ethan grinned and said his goodbyes. Nora went to rest in her room while Garrett was intently watching Alec from his seat. Poor boy. He has to pay for someone else's thirst for revenge. For few seconds the older man regretted his decision but quickly shook himself out of his thoughts. He had to be strong. This had to be done. There was no other choice

Alec Lightwood will not leave them
