It's been six years since the war with Clary's brother. It's also been six years since Magnus saw Alec. Magnus was absent for most of the war. He did help in the end, however. It was only for Alec, of course. Magnus only saw fleeting glances of him. Alec was too busy. Magnus assumed that was good. If he saw Alec, Magnus would have taken him back. The High Warlock of Brooklyn did not go crawling back to his ex. No matter how tempting.
It was late one afternoon. Magnus was lounging around his loft when he received a call.
"This is fabulousness you are speaking to. Who is this?" Magnus asked, bored. He examined his nails while he waited for the response.
"Magnus," the voice said. Magnus froze.
"Isabelle? Why are you calling?" He asked stiffly. Talking to you ex's sister is not good.
"You need to help us," Isabelle said frantically. Magnus frowned.
"Why on Earth would I help you?" Magnus demanded.
"Because something is wrong with Alec. Come quick, please. The children are upset," Isabelle explained. Magnus immediately hung up and went out the door without a second thought. It may have been several years, but Magnus's feelings for Alec were still there.
As Magnus ran to the Institute, he thought of what Isabelle said. 'The children are upset.' Of course. Simon and Isabelle have a three year old boy named Connor. Clary and Jace have a three year old girl named Jennifer. Clary is also eight months pregnant. As for Alec, he has twins.
When Magnus found out, he laughed. Alec was gay. He wouldn't have children. It turned it he did. Three months after we broke up, Alec meet a mundane woman named Melanie. After the war, she was able to Ascend. They have twins. It was said five year olds Aurora and Nicholas were adorable. Magnus never meet them. Magnus didn't to plan. However, that seemed impossible now.
Magnus was at the Institute now. Magnus stopped at the door. Magnus brought my hand up and fixed his hair. Magnus then knocked the door. After a few infuriating seconds, it opened. In front of him stood an older and very pregnant Clarissa Fray. She smiled and pulled him into a hug. Magnus tried not to bump into her belly.
"Magnus! How are you?" Clary squealed. Magnus scowled.
"I don't remember you being this excited," Magnus commented. Clary laughed.
"It's just a pregnant thing. Come in" Clary said. Magnus stepped inside. They stepped in the elevator. They stood in comfortable silence until it came to a stop. They stepped outside.
"Where's Alec?" Magnus asked. Clary started waddling to the infirmary. Magnus refained from saying anything. Just as they rounded the corner, a splash of red appeared. The toddler was obviously Jennifer. She looked curiously at him.
"I assume this is Jennifer," Magnus said. Clary nodded proudly.
"Why do you have cat eyes?" Jennifer asked. Yep. This is definitely her child. Magnus examined her closely. Jennifer had straight red hair with gold eyes. He felt slight disdain.
"Because I do. Now, if you please, I have someone to take care of?" Magnus asked impatiently. Magnus left Clary behind, and hurried to where the infirmary was. When he entered, Jace was hovering worriedly over Alec. And for a good reason too. Alec was pale. He was sweating and seemed to be shivering. His lips were blue. Alec;s breathing was ragged and unsteady. Black inchor was oozing from a wound on his side. Magnus hurried over to him.
"What happened?" Magnus asked, his eyes on Alec.
"We were demon hunting. I didn't see the demon coming at me. Alec intercepted and took the hit," Jace explained. Of course Alec would do that.
"Leave," Magnus said. Blue sparks came out of my fingertips. Magnus felt my heart contract at the sight of him. Jace left without question, which surprised me. Magnus didn't think of it and got to work.
