Magnus felt his heart beating though his chest. Cold drops covered his body. He moved from one side to the other. His eyes were closed shut but twitching. He kept mumbling words over and over again, stuck in an other world. A world much more sinister than reality itself. He shot up and felt his lungs releasing an endless supply of air. He looked around trying to reassure his safety. The sun was shining trough the curtains. Magnus looked the clock. 7:30. It was still early in the morning. He felt something grabbing his arm. He looked to the side and saw that Alec had waken up.

''Is everything okay? You feel sweaty.'' said Alec with his eyes barely open.

Magnus took a gasp of air. Seeing Alec made him feel safe again. ''Everything is fine Alexander.''

''Was it another bad dream?'' asked Alec still holding Magnus's arm.

''Yes, the same one but this time the demon killed you instead of me. I'm afraid I can't get rid of these terrible dreams.'' Magnus went back under the covers and pressed his body against that of Alec. ''Luckily it was just a dream.

Alec gave Magnus a kiss on the cheeks. ''It's going to be okay, I promise.''

Magnus smiled. ''I feel better already. But enough about the dream'' Magnus face changed while thinking about last night. He and Alec took the next step in their relationship. As soon as he thought of it a warm feeling took over his body and he couldn't control his cheeks. ''last night was, how should I put it...amazing!''

''It was great, I never felt anything like that before.''

''Oh Alexander, that was just the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more I can show you.'' said Magnus while giving Alec a cheeky look.

Alec laughed. ''I have to go the institute needs me I have to go.'' Alec jumped out of bed and put on his clothes. He reached for his shirt but it flew across the room and landed in the bed. He turned around and saw Magnus twirling his finger in the air.

''You can't go out without taking a shower first. Leaders need good hygiene Alexander.'' Alec walked up to Magnus but the warlock put his hand on the Shadowhunter's hairy chest. ''You have to set a good example.''

Alec took Magnus hand off of him. ''I am not the 'leader' and besides I don't have much time Magnus.''

''I'm sure one of these days you will be. I'm serious. I'll even make you breakfast if you stay a little longer.'' Alec knew Magnus would not let this go so he complied. A grin appeared on Magnus his face. ''If you need any help...''

''Take that grin off your face it's not going to happen. Can I have my shirt back?'' said Alec. He wanted to stay with Magnus but he knew he had to fulfill his duties.

''I like this look-'' but Alec grabbed his shirt and walked to the bathroom. Magnus got out of bed and put on a robe to prepare breakfast for his boyfriend. He didn't know what to make but knowing Alec it had to be simple and fast.

Alec walked into the living room as Magnus was setting up the table. The room smelled like freshly baked eggs and croissants. Alec sat down and waited impatiently for Magnus to sit down too.

''It smells really good Magnus.'' said Alec with his mouth half full.

''It's nothing really. Have I ever told you about the fine cuisine of the french.'' said Magnus proudly.

''No but you can show me next time.''

After they were done they cleaned everything up ready to start the day.

''Thanks for the breakfast Magnus.'' Alec was ready to go but before he could leave a hand grabbed him by his arm and pushed him to the kitchen counter.

''Aren't you forgetting something.'' said Magnus locking his eyes onto Alec. The Shadowhunter smiled and kissed the warlock on his lips. Magnus hands sliding down and slowly lifting up Alec's shirt.

''Stop, I have to go.'' said Alec trying to convince himself more than the guy standing in front of him.

''Come on. You can spare a couple of minutes.'' Alec gave in. He walked to the table and searched between his stuff.

''What are you doing darling.'' said Magnus confused. Alec grabbed his stele and activated his power and flexibility runes. He walked back and lifted Magnus up and out him on top of the kitchen counter. They both giggled and continue to make out when suddenly the door swung open. Jace walked up with a worried face. Magnus, who quickly closed his robe jumped of the counter and cleared his throat. Alec adjusted his shirt and put his hand behind his back and arched his back into a professional stance. However Jace didn't react. He still had that worried look on his face.

''Alec I need your help. Clary is missing!''

''What? When?'' asked Alec still caught off guard.

''Since yesterday evening. She called me and told me she had found a lead on Valentines followers.''

''They have not done much since the death of Rastor.''

''I know'' said Jace while pacing back and forth. ''Clary found something, she wanted to tell me but she had to hang up. I tried to call her this morning but she doesn't answer her phone. I think she is in trouble.'' His voice sounded scared.

''I'll come with you.'' said Alec

''And I will contact some of my people to see if they have heard something.'' said Magnus.

''Thanks Magnus I appreciate that.'' Jace sounded a bit more relieved.

Izzy was waiting for her brothers to arrive at the institute. She stood in front of the computer and put a map of New York on display.

''What did you find Izzy.'' Jace's tone changed to fierce. He had to find Clary.

''Look.'' Isabelle enlarged a part of the map. ''One of our guys found Clary's phone here. Also they found her stele a couple of hundred meter south of that location. She sounded worried. '' I think she stumbled on something major.''

''What can it be?'' asked Alec.

''I don't know but it has to be important enough to take her with them.'' she closed the map and walked towards Jace. ''I have already send search parties it's going to be okay.'' trying to comfort him.

''Thanks Izzy. Alec you go to the location of the phone and I will look around the area of her stele.'' said Jace. Alec nodded in agreement.

''I will text you guys the coordinates.'' Izzy turned around facing the computer again. Jace and Alec were ready to leave when one of the security guards stopped them.

''We have a problem!'' he said out of breath.

''What is it now?'' asked the trio.

''The body of Rastor is missing out of the morgue!''
