"Actually there is no pleasure behind our visit unfortunately

"Actually there is no pleasure behind our visit unfortunately. I'm sure you've heard what the Queen of Edom has been up to" I say. "The Queen of Edom here in New York? What a terrifying prospect" He frowns. "It is indeed, my institute is hunting her as we speak but she's proven rather elusive" I share our concerns. 

He shifted his position. Knowing we were about to put in a request. 

"Lilith has taken a lieutenant, using some form of mind control. A Shadowhunter. Our goal is to break him free so he can tell us about her plans, her location, her weaknesses. However, this will require a great deal of magic" Aria says. "And you want my warlocks to confront this  lieutenant?" He ask. "No. Only one. Magnus Bane" She says stepping in.

Lorenzo sighs hearing his name. 

"He found a spell that allows him to channel the magic of other warlocks. He'll be the only one in danger. Of course, we would never move forward without your blessing" I stress to him. "As Shadowhunters you have a duty to fight demons, us warlock do not" He sets down his mug. "Helping you, only means we risk making enemies with the queen of hell. Besides she isn't even a threat to us." He says uncaringly. 

Aria's face changed

Aria's face changed. She was going to play bad cop. And I am going to let her.

Aria's POV 

I won't lie, he has a point but I have had enough. "As a matter of fact she is" I raise my voice. "She corrupted the ley lines, endangering warlock all over the city" I stand up. 

"That issue was resolved" he smiled. I chuckle. 

"Yes. And while you gladly took the credit, you and I both know who really purified the lines. Maybe your people deserve to know the truth too. We risked our institute to help your people. So if you have any honor, you will return the favour. Besides, you know what I am and what I can do." I look him dead in the eye. 

"Is that a threat?" he says raising an eye

"Is that a threat?" he says raising an eye. "No. Lilith's intentions are clear. We know what she wants. She will do anything and everything to destroy us. I suggest you think what would happened if Lilith gets me, a weapon the clave can't control.  You know very well she will destroy your entire realm to satisfy hers" I warned. 

"Fine. I shall speak to my people about this at once" He says shaking Alec's  hand. 

But I knew something was wrong. I could see it in his eyes. 

Once we were out the door, walking toward the street. "Alec I have a bad feeling" I worriedly look at him. "Me too, but we'll figure it out. Together" He says kissing my forehead. 

"Together" I say, kissing  him.

[A/N: Hey guys, Sorry for the delays again! I'm so sorry I didn't keep my promise. I fell ill and still haven't fully recovered. I tried completing the editing for the upcoming chapters but my head would hurt if I spent longer than 10/15 minutes on my laptop. To top it off my university scrapped the course I paid for, so that was so stressful and my mum cracked a bone in a spine. So everything just went south this past month. I'm trying me very best to put more chapters as I promised. Forgive me if they do take a while. 

Anyways I hope you like this! So please look forward to more & Thank you so much for your patience! x M]
