Well here we are everyone. The final two chapters. Thank you all for supporting this story :)

Magnus Pov- I watched Alexander sleep feeling horrible for putting a sleeping spell on him. I had no choice though he needed more rest and he wouldn't do that feeling horrible about himself. Maybe I should have done something during that trial. I should have frozen time and took Isabelle out of there or I should have forced Alexander to come with me instead of giving him a choice.

Still I know Alec never would have accepted leaving his family. But now that both his brother, sister, and Jace are gone and with his father stabbing him in the back over and over again maybe he will leave with me. There was a knock on my door before Luke came in "you have a visitor at the door."

I blinked confused, never getting visitors besides Alec and I stood up going downstairs with Luke. I went outside and frowned when I saw Jonathan there waiting for me. "what do you want? Haven't you caused enough trouble today?"

Jonathan just rolled his eyes and started walking to the barn "follow me I want to talk in private." I hesitated before following him into the barn. He laid his coat down on a stack of hay before sitting on it and looking at me "I'm about to throw an offer out to you and I hope you accept it." I glared at him "there is no way I would ever make a deal with you."

He glanced up at me "even if it assured Alexander's safety?" I frowned "what's your game Jonathan?" he shrugged "it's very simple really I want you to leave Alexander and mind your own business." I clenched my fists outraged "there is no way in hell that I am doing that!"

He shook his head "you were never meant to be involved with this town Magnus Bane. You came here to find information on your mother and that is what you should be focusing on. Alexander is just holding you back. The way I see it is you can stay with Alexander, continue to have this sinful love affair, and be killed together. Or you can leave Alexander now, focus on finding your mother, and both of you can live long healthy lives."

"like I believe any of that crap. You killed Max and burned Isabelle, you are continuing your fathers work to make angels." Jonathan pulled some hay out of the stack and started breaking it up. "you misunderstand Magnus. The reason Isabelle and Maxwell Lightwood are dead is because of you."

I glared at him "how so?" "you killed my father; the most important person in my life. I needed to pay you back somehow but simply killing Alexander was way too easy. So I killed his siblings so you will have to live your life knowing Alexander's siblings are dead because of you."

I frowned clenching my fists "you're a monster." Jonathan glared at me intensely "you are the one who is a monster. You are a warlock who has corrupted Alexander's mind with sinful thoughts and actions and on top of that you killed my father." I clenched my fists tighter and yelled "your father tried to kill me!"

He stood up "my point is Magnus that I'm tired of the violence. If you stop talking to Alexander I will leave him alone and he will live out the rest of his days in peace. But if you refuse me you will both die. Even if you run away I will find you and kill you both."

He picked up his jacket and brushed off the hay before looking at me "I will give you two days to decide." He walked passed me leaving and I just stood there not knowing what to think. Is there a possibility that he is telling the truth? If I leave Alexander, Jonathan will leave him alone and let him live.

He is right that I'm the reason Alexander's siblings were dead. If Alec knew that would he regret our time together? Will he wish that we have never even met? I can't imagine a world without Alexander in it but if it was going to keep him safe maybe I should consider it.

I shook the thought of leaving Alexander out of my head. The whole idea of leaving him was impossible but Jonathan was right about one thing. I need to get back to looking for my mother. If I can find her, or find any information on her then maybe I can find a way to save Alexander. That's when I remembered Alexander telling me about how Max always read magic books and books about warlocks.

Maybe if I search his room I can find some information on my mother. I walked out of the shed and looked up at my bedroom window where my lover was sleeping in my bed. "I will make the world a safe place for you Alexander."

I made it to Alexander's house and snuck into Max's room with no trouble at all. It seemed nobody was even home but it was best to be as quiet as possible just in case. I moved over to the book shelf and pulled out multiple books but none were what I needed. There were books about healing spells, possession, and even some powerful spell books but nothing had any content that linked to my mother.

The only thing I even know about her is that she lived here in Salem and she wrote some powerful spell books. One of them being The Book of White one of the most powerful spell books in the world. Almost every warlock had their eye on that and even some mundanes. I'm sure Jonathan has his eye on it as well.

I reached up to the top of the book shelf and felt a box was there gathering dust. "what's this" I asked pulling it down and opening it. There were a bunch of letters written in the same hand writing as the letter my mom left with me when she left me on kana's doorstep and there was a little brown book. I sat on the floor and pulled out the little brown book before opening it. There were more letters inside with times and dates like a diary. I turned to a random page and started reading.

Today I got separated from my beloved with only a month left till I have Magnus. I hope to find him before Valentine and the others get to him. Father valentine has learned about the existence of warlocks and has also learned of the angel summoning. If he were to use the angels' magic the world would be filled with chaos.

I frowned finishing that passage before skimming through some more pages. Finally, I stopped on the last entry.

My beloved is forever gone and I fear I will be next. I have no choice but to take my son somewhere safe before Valentine sees that I gave birth. An angry mob of mundanes are going to come for me soon and I know that my time is up. But I refuse to let my sons' life end before it can begin. I will take him to the next town and hopefully find him a great home before I go. I wish this wasn't the case but Magnus and The Book of White must never get in Valentines' grasp.

I frowned and put down the book looking through the letters now. I wonder if Max ever read any of these. If so I'm shocked, he didn't give them to Jonathan. I stopped on a letter that was labeled 'to Magnus' and I picked it up frowning. It was addressed to me and has never been opened. I took a deep breath before opening the letter and starting to read.

Dear Magnus, if you are reading this it means I am dead and you have found my letters. Magnus I never wanted to get rid of you but I had to do it to assure your safety. My dear a great evil is here in Salem and sometimes you have to let the ones you love go in order to protect them. I don't know what Salem is like now that I am gone but I do know it can't be good as long as Valentine has the powers of angels on his side.

I have hidden The Book of White in an old cottage that is on the edge of Salem. If you don't know it's there it's easy to miss but I know you will have no trouble finding it my boy. I need you to find the cottage, find The Book of White, and then use it's spells to defeat valentine or whoever is in charge. I know it is a big responsibility and burden but baby it is for the good of the world. I love you very much and I hope you have lived a life full of love and kindness.

I closed my eyes letting all the words sink in and it took everything I had not to start crying. Certain words kept replaying in my head over and over again. 'Sometimes you have to let the one you love go in order to protect them.' was this really the answer? Was giving up Alexander the only option I had if I wanted him to stay alive?

I could get The Book of White and defeat Jonathan but what if he hurt Alexander before I had the chance? Maybe my best option is to keep Alexander at a distance until I get the book. That's not fair to Alexander but what choice do I have?
I stood up and gathered the box and letters before sneaking out of the House and going back to my own.

Alexander Pov- I opened my eyes feeling groggy and Magnus walked into the room holding an old looking box close. "what's that" I asked him tiredly and he put it in a trunk before looking at me and smiling slightly. There was something sad about his smile. "you should head home Alexander."

I frowned and sat up "do I have to? I wanted to stay here with you for a little while." He shook his head no "I have work to do and you need to go be there for your mother." I frowned thinking about how my mom must have felt watching Isabelle be burned days after Max was Buried.

"You're right" I said standing up. Magnus walked up to me and hugged me tightly "I love you Alexander" he said softly. I frowned and hugged him tightly "Why do you sound so sad? This is starting to sound like a real goodbye."

He held me tighter "No it's not..." I frowned at his long pause and I hugged him back tightly "I love you too Magnus" After he let me go I let him go and left going home.

A Week Later~

I walked out of my home and looked up at the gray sky thinking that it was going to rain. It had been doing nothing but raining here in Salem but then again why shouldn't it. All my friends have died, both my younger siblings killed. With all this death and pain what right does that sun have to shine?

Max's funeral and Isabelle's burning was only a few days ago yet it felt like it has been forever since I've seen their faces. Magnus is the only person keeping me going but he has been distant toward me for the past week. Maybe he's afraid of the burning. Why do we even burn witches and warlocks? They aren't hurting anyone; if they were all good people like Magnus couldn't we learn to live together?

I shook my head and started walking down the dirt road leading to Luke's barn. Magnus has talked with me about running away from Salem and starting over fresh in a new place that doesn't have burnings. My excuse for not going was my siblings but now that their gone… what should I do? If we run away will people come after us? Accuse us of being warlocks and burn us in front of our loved ones? Will it all be for nothing?

I stopped walking and looked up at the sky again as it started to sprinkle rain. "Max…. Isabelle… what should I do?" There was a sound of footsteps coming up behind me and I turned around thinking it was Magnus but it was Jonathan. "Did I startle you Alexander" He asked smiling at me; sending chills down my spine.

"Oh no it's just… I assumed you were Magnus." He walked up and put his hand on my head running his fingers down my hair and on to my neck "You and Magnus have gotten very close haven't you? He is a very mysterious man." I nodded "Yes but he is harmless… was there something I could help you with Jonathan?"

He nodded removing his hand from my neck "Yes; would you mind accompanying me to the church? Your father wishes to speak with you." I frowned and looked back in the direction of the barn "Well… I suppose so." He smiled more and linked his arm with mine "Great lets' go."

He pulled me in the direction I came and led me to the church. The church was even spookier when the sky was gray and it was raining. I looked at Jonathan "so… what does my father want from me?" He shrugged "Didn't say for cretin."

He opened the big wooden doors and I stepped into the church looking around. "Stay here and I will get your father." He walked away and I walked up to the podium waiting. "This place is so creepy" I mumbled picking up the bible off of the podium.

When I did it sank into the ground and stairs appeared going down. "What in the world?" I looked around making sure no one was coming before making my way down the stairs now curious of what was down there. When I got off the stairs there were many hallways to take but only one had torches leading down it so I chose to go that way.

"Why on earth would there be something like this in the basement of the church?" I made my way to the end of the hall but stopped when I heard voices coming from behind the door. I opened the door a peek and I could see my father and Jonathan standing with… wait; Camille Belcourt? She was burned, I watched her be burned so why was she here?"

"Did you bring Alexander" Camille asked looking and Jonathan and he nodded. "Soon we will have all the pieces in place and we will be able to resurrect my father." When Magnus wanted to run away he wanted to do it because he accidentally killed Father Valentine. He said he didn't mean to do it.

"Why did we have to use my son? We have used all of my other children why take my first born and only one left from me" My father yelled. His words made my body freeze. What did he mean by that? Was he the reason Max and Isabelle were gone?

"The Lightwoods have strong blood and they are the perfect vesicles for resurrection. Stephen is using Max to bring his beloved girlfriend back to life and Alexander will be my father's vessel." I leaned in closer trying to hear but I lost my balance and fell into the room making every one's eyes go on me. I looked up at Jonathan who gave me the evilest of glares "How much did you hear Alexander?"

I sent him a glare of my own and I stood up "I heard everything and I will not let you get away with what you're doing. You are killing innocent people." I looked at my dad and frowned "How could you? How could you all sacrifice your children and siblings for this?"

There was no answer from mine or Jace's father but Camille stepped up "What would you know about it Alexander? You are nothing but a pawn just like everyone else and we have brought you here to die." I glared at her "Only if you can catch me." I turned and ran out of the room and down the hall as fast as I could.

I could hear Jonathan yell to go after me and by time I was at the stairs my father and Stephen ran out of the room to catch me. I got out of the tunnel and I ran out of the church doors making my way into town. I couldn't trust anyone but Magnus, I can't scream for anyone's help unless it's Magnus. I turned a corner and seen Magnus going into an alleyway.

I screamed for him going after him. I screamed his name to the top of my lungs not caring who else heard and I was crying begging that Magnus would hear me. It was raining hard now and the dirt road was becoming a muddy one making me trip and fall on my face. My father walked up with Stephen and they each grabbed one of my arms pulling me back to the church.

I closed my eyes screaming "Magnus; Magnus!" But no matter how much I screamed my lover did not come to save me. My father and Stephan pulled me back to the church and took me to a room where there was a huge cross shaped table sitting in the middle of the room covered in blood. "What is this" I asked breathless and Jonathan came into the room with Camille, both now wearing black cloaks.

I've seen those cloaks before in my dreams but I have also seen this table. It wasn't bloody in my dreams but it always leads to me becoming an angel. This was it... I was going to become an angel like I feared. "Let's get started shall we" Jonathan said grabbing a thick old book.

I looked at the book before looking at him "Are you going to blame my death on Magnus?" Jonathan was silent for a moment before asking me a question "Has Magnus been avoiding you this past week Alexander?" I frowned thinking about how every time I tried to talk to Magnus this week he always said he was too busy. The day Isabelle was killed Magnus hugged me like he would never hold me again.

"You see Alexander I am the one who made Magnus avoid you." I looked at him and glared "Why?" "Because he was in my way, with his powerful magic he could have protected you from me. I told him that if he left you alone I would let you both live out your lives in peace. He was a fool believing me but I guess that works to my advantage."

He snapped his fingers and both my father and Stephen grabbed me and slammed me on my stomach, onto the cross table. They shackled my arms and legs to the table and I looked up at Jonathan glaring "What are you going to do to Magnus?" Jonathan got to my level smiling slightly "I'm going to accuse him of your murder and have him burn of course." I shook my head no "Magnus won't just go along with that. He will get away or fight you!"

Jonathan stood up shaking his head "He left you all alone and chose to trust me. He will blame himself and come willingly." I shook my head no and Jonathan walked over to Camille and the others who were now wearing cloaks too. "Let's begin."

They all got in a circle around me and pulled up their hoods before holding up their hands and starting to chant something in some kind of language I didn't understand. I closed my eyes tightly starting to feel stinging pain go through my body and focus into my back. Whatever they were chanting it was stinging me with unbearable pain. I opened my eyes and gasped when I seen flames surrounding us.

Black ink like marks appeared all over my arms and the flames rose into the air swirling around everyone. I looked around desperately before stopping my gaze on Magnus. I don't know if I was imagining it or not because the Magnus I seen was see through like a ghost and his appearance was completely different from mine.

His hair was colorful like a rainbow and his clothes were so strange but those golden green were unmistakable. The other people didn't seem to notice this Magnus, was he even there at all? The Magnus I seen looked at the cloaked figures and yelled at them to stop hurting me but once again they either didn't hear him or see him. "P... please..." I choked out reached my hand as far as I could out to him. "Please Magnus... help me."

He opened his mouth as if to say something to me but the chant got louder making the fire wall go up higher. The Magnus I saw vanished and I screamed to the top of my lungs as the fire attacked my back. The flames sank in before black angel wings busted out of my back.

Remember the dream Magnus had at the very beginning of In The Arms of An Angel? Well that's the Magnus Alec saw in the flames in case it wasn't made clear. Alec got a glimps of the future ;P
