Ok another short one. This one and the next one should be the last short ones though. If everything goes well I'm going back to longer chapters after that. But for now…Here you go. Hope you like it.
I stumbled through the front door, barely standing upright and probably making more noise then I intended. But it's not like I could hear anything other than the pulsing of my heartbeat that seems to have gotten louder by the second.
I leaned onto the wall, probably staining it with blood as I did, and blinked a few times at the spots that danced in front of my eyes as I pressed even harder at the big bloody wound at my side.
Dragon demons are extinct my ass. I thought feeling angry at this and at Jace for dragging me to the subway tunnels in the first place. They are so not extinct.
I tried to stop the blood from flowing from the really big gash I got from its claw but it just kept dripping through my fingers.
I'm losing blood and I'm losing it fast. I thought as I tried to walk towards the bathroom to get a something to stop the bleeding but didn't even managed to do one step before I almost fell, only kept upright by the wall.
My breath was coming in pants and I started to feel light headed.
I can't believe I managed to lose my stele. I thought shutting my eyes completely as everything started spinning around me.
"Magnus…" I managed to call out right before everything went black and I felt myself falling to the floor.
I was just hoping that I managed to wake him up.
…
I blinked a few times as I started to wake up, feeling drowsy and sore.
I heard someone next to me let out a relived sigh.
"Good you're awake." I heard Magnus's voice, making me relax again.
I turned my head to look at him. He looked a bit drained and sleep deprived. With his hair left down and not even a trace of make up on his face, but he still gave me a big breath taking and relived smile when our eyes met.
He reached towards me and cherished my cheek with such a light touch like he was afraid to break me before he ducked down and left a soft kiss on my lips.
After the kiss he didn't pull back but rested his forehead on mine.
"Don't you even dare scare me like that again." He whispered. His eyes serious with a flash of fright in them. "You almost died on me Alexander."
"I'm sorry." I spoke for the first time searching for his hand and taking it in mine. "Thank you for heeling me. Again." I added with a small smile making him smile in return.
I noticed that he was sitting on a chair by the bed and felt a slight sense of déjà vu reminding me of the time he healed me from the greater demon.
I shifted to the side slightly, making room for him to get onto the bed. The movement made me aware of the pain but it wasn't bad. It's nothing compared to earlier.
Even without looking I knew that the wound was now completely healed and the leftover pain is the only thing that is left. Which will also be gone in a few hours.
Magnus smiled wider and complied, immediately putting his hands around me and pulling me flush against him as I rested my head on his chest comfortably. Sighing as his warmth enveloped me.
"What happened?" Magnus asked after a minute of comfortable silence, one of his hands moving up and down my arm soothingly.
"A dragon demon. A supposed to be extinct dragon demon." I mumbled in annoyance.
He chuckled but tightened his hold on me, probably absentmindedly. "Doesn't seem extinct to me."
"Me either. But it's my fault I got hurt." I admitted not looking at him.
"How so?" Magnus asked in reply.
"I wasn't fast enough and haven't had much of the proper training recently. Plus I was really caught by surprise when I saw that it really is a dragon demon. There was a whole nest of them in the subway tunnels."
"There seem to be a lot of the demons nestling in those tunnels." He mused and I nodded my head still on his chest. "But it's not your fault. That parabatai of yours was supposed to watch your back. Speaking I noticed that you didn't even have an iratzi drawn on. Wasn't he supposed to do that too when he saw you're hurt."
"One of the demons escaped and Jace went after it…" I stopped for a second before continuing. "After I told him that I'm fine and can draw it myself. The only problem was that I forgot that one of the demons ate my stele during the fight so I couldn't do that. But by the time I noticed he was already gone and I couldn't wait for him so I came back here. Hoping that you can heal me."
My cheeks were red from embarrassment as I told him what happened.
He was silent for a few moments before bringing his hand to my chin and tilting my head up so I have to look at him.
I opened my mouth to say something but is lips descended on mine enabling me to do so. Not that I was complaining.
I shifted slightly to get in a little more comfortable position as I kissed him back.
"I'm happy you thought to come back so I can heal you but please next time make sure you can get an iratzi drawn at any cost because I don't want to find you bleeding to death in my hallway ever again. You almost gave me a heart attack. And that is hard to do." He tried joking to lighten the suddenly serious mood. "I just don't want to lose you ok:"
"I promise I will." I pecked his lips one more time before snuggling to him with my head on his chest again. "Now please sleep with me for a few more hours I feel exhausted."
He chuckled but didn't argue with it.
And a few minutes later I was lulled back to sleep as he combed his fingers through my hair whispering sweet nothings as he did.
