Chapter 12: Be safe than sorry

Alec

"Alexander, if you keep furrowing your forehead you are going to get wrinkles at a very young age"

I looked up from my hand looking at Magus who was handing the waiter cash looked at him for a second "no change" he said and turned his attention back at me. I watched the waiter walk back to the register standing by it, looking at my Magnus in awe. I mean why wouldn't he, Magnus is beautiful. Inside and out. I keep staring at the waiter and when he finally notice me he blushed in embarrassment and turned away.

"It's cute when your jealous. Although, you have no need to be. My eyes are only for you."

"Even if your eyes are on me, I don't like other people's eyes on you." I stood up, reached my hand out and Magus took it and we talked out the restaurant. It was weird when we walked outside I felt a pull, a connection, from across the street. I looked around scanning the area, but my eyes landed on an empty table. I felt like there's someone there, but how can I feel someone when there isn't anyone there to feel, or see? I heard something from a distance, muffling, like someone talking under water. I realized it was Magnus trying to talk to me

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry."

"Don't worry, but remember I brought you here to relax, even if it's just for a couple hours, but if you want we can go back now to the institution"

"Thank you" with a kiss on his cheek, we walked down the road hand in hand…

Sebastian

Everything is too perfect. Jace hasn't try to escape, or attack me, and hardly disobeyed me. Is it the demon blood? Or the fact that he's under my control again, so it's harder for him to disobey? I have to make sure, leaving the queens room I headed straight back to the apartment to look through his things.

I walked into my brother's room and went through everything, his closet, dresser, behind the dresser, the last thing is a duffle bad under his bed. Nothing more than clothes and weapons, that I allowed him to have, but something I didn't expect is a necklace. My bother isn't the type of person to wear a necklace, reaching in and taking it out it didn't do anything. No magic. It's a normal necklace, well even if it is, I rather be safe than sorry. Taking the neck lace back to my room and just leaving it inside the draw neck to my bed. Well, now I'm off, on my way to find Clarissa and our brother.

I found them both sitting by a table drinking coffee. Although, it was a beautiful day, nothing was more beautiful than my love, Clarissa, drinking coffee, smiling under the sun.
