Chapter 10

A.N. TA-DA new chapter. Just warning there is a chapter before this that you may or may not have read due to me deleting the A.N chapter and replacing it with the chapters I posted after that one.. yeah I messed up with that.. so please just double check that you read that one if I remember correctly it has some juicy plotness.. okay I lied but it is mostly Magnus POV and even a little bit of Ragnor's POV for whoever it was who suggested the ship of Ragnor and Raphael with I strongly support and was glad someone suggested. Also there is also the review replies for the previous chapter (THE ICKY ONE WITH THE SEBALEC MOMENT)

Disclaimer: Not mine.

Now on with the chapter.

Jonathans POV

I can't believe it worked, wait scratch that of course it worked with me playing the lead. Alec was putty in my hands, he couldn't even think straight; all because of that weird little seed she gave me, I mused. As I continued with my thought process, my mind jumped from Alec and the plan, towards her.

She is gorgeous. With her scarlet coloured hair that flows around her head like a mane of fire, with icy blue eyes, this juxtaposition makes her unique beauty truly captivating. She's perfect and she's all mine just as I'm all hers. Even if she is a Downworlder.

I've always know I was bi and I've only every loved one person in that way, that person being Alec, but now I know although that was love and was great while it had lasted, nothing compares to her. Her lips, her hair, even the way she speaks and the way she moves so gracefully while also being completely intimidating and superior. She is the one I am doing this for, the reason I accepted her challenge to seduce Alec Lightwood.

Izzy's POV

My mission to find and interrogate Alec failed. I've looked everywhere, his room, Jace's room, Max's room. I even asked Sebastian, Aline and Helen if they'd seen him. He wasn't in the Shadowhunter clearing/hideout either or in the clearing outside the Accords hall. Damn where could my brother be. He's probably by the lake reading one of those terribly boring books about Shadowhunter history or whatever it is he reads from those dusty old books/tablet/things. UGH! I can't do this anymore! I need to calm down before anyone realises I'm freaking out. I stopped walking abruptly at the thought.

Looking around suspiciously I analysed the people who were around. Two girls of about 12 sat about 5 meters away sharpening some blades with a stone, they weren't paying any attention to me all they did was sit across from each other not saying a word but looking up every now and then at the quietest of sounds. When I was satisfied with my analysis I carried on walking.

Knowing every inch of my surroundings having been committed to memory I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. As I did so soft brown eyes surrounded by broken glassed appeared behind my eye lids. I gasped and opened my eyes. No I can't think of him, not of my idiot of a Downworlder. They can't know about us, but by the Angel I will save you, even if it's the last thing I do.

I have only visited him once since his capture excluding his trial. I hated saying those things about Downworlders when he could hear me say them when he could watch my mouth form those words that I promised him I would never say unless absolutely necessary, although it was wasn't it.

I frowned opening my eyes. Alec didn't say those things though, he found no need to he just spoke the truth of the attack while getting it over and done with as quickly as possible, he used as little time as he possibly could. Now I think about it he looked upset and more nervous than usual he kept looking at someone in the crowd, who? I don't know but he always seemed more anxious and upset every time he glance their way. Maybe he isn't a law abiding little Shadowhunter after all, maybe, just maybe he has dark secrets of his own. Ones that could ruin him and I am determined to find out what to help him with his problems just like he's always help me with mine.

Alec's POV

I like walking it clears the head but walking most of the day up a steep mountain face and then having to battle through to my destination and then make my way back down the mountain without being eaten by one of the strange beasts that dwell on the mountains and/or falling to my death all of this with the sun trying to roast you and your mind distracting you I can tell you now it's not fun and I hope I never have to do that again. I rambled in my head.

I can't and won't think of what I just did around anyone, only when I'm alone I have a tendency to voice my thoughts aloud and that would be bad, really bad.

I sighed.

I can't believe I did what I just did; I can't believe I went to all that effort for him, a Downworlder. I hope he's worth it, no I pray, I beg of the Angel for him to be worth it, because otherwise I've given up a lot for him. For us.

I woke up this morning with a raging headache and I felt nauseous after a drink of water though it went and just like that my mind had cleared like there had been a fog clouding my mind and distorting my judgement and making me susceptible to suggestions, I know this because the lady who lives a few doors down, who I hate usually I never say hate but she deserves it for what I can't remember but I know she is just plain evil anyway, she came over and asked me to help train her two kids tonight.. and I agreed I actually agreed who in their right mind agrees to that? Hm.. no one my thought exactly. I knew something was wrong from that moment on but after the water I was back to my normal logical self or as Jace says boring mopey self, which is just rude but it's Jace if he wasn't at least slightly sarcastic, rude or narcissistic then we all know that something is wrong.

"Alec babe." I froze. Jonathan. I have no idea what possessed me to get back with him I really don't but I can't just dump him I have to let him down gently and that is going to take time.

"Hey babe I was just thinking about you. Where'd you been?" Jon said as he got closer and closer. He came to stop just before me. He kissed me on the lips and I melted against him all thoughts of being anything but his boyfriend vanishing into thin air.

"N-Nowhere important. Just for a walk." I said smiling widely at him.

"I'm wounded Alec that you didn't ask me to accompany you on your walk." Jon said mock hurt and a tiny bit of annoyance across his features.

Magnus would have called me Alexander.

Wait.. what. Where did that come from. Magnus.. Magnus.. Oh Magnus Bane the stunningly beautiful Downworlder with cat like eyes, who has haunted my dreams since the moment I met him 12 years ago. My thoughts were cut off by Jonathan as he spoke yet again this time cupping my face with his hands that seemed unnaturally cold for such a hot day.

"Alec did you not hear a single word I just said? You're acting strange today what's wrong?" The way those words were said made his questions seem genuine but when I looked up into his coal black eyes there was only a sliver of concern that was quickly swamped with annoyance and slight confusion as my answer was delayed further.

"I'm sorry Jon." I wasn't. "But I promised I would meet Izzy she really wanted to speak to me about something." I took a deep breath and continued. "I'll talk to you later okay?" Not giving him time to answer I moved from his grasp and quickly walked away.

The fog that had invaded my mind when Jonathan had kissed me was gone from my mind and I knew who to thank for that.

Magnus.

A.N. Thanks for reading please review! I need help and motivation badly! Because lets face it the ending to that was just meh..
