Shadowhunters *WTS*

Chapter Forty-Two

I had Raphael drop me at my apartment, before he went home. I watched as he drove off, before I entered. I didn't see Magnus. I grabbed my drink and after a long day was left with my thoughts.

"Stella, I love you, mi corazon." Alexnader whispered in my ear.

"I love you too, my angel." I told him.

He gave me that beautiful smile, before spinning me around. I remember being twirled in his arms. It was a day when Magnus was busy with being High Warlock.

I cried, missing my angel. I refilled my drink, continuing every memory I have of him.

"Stella, do you think I will make a good Institute Head?" He asked.

"I do. You are such a protective and loyal person, Alexander, that I know you will have the best interest for your people and the downworlders." I told him.

I want to scream. Yell. Do something. But I can't. So, I just slowly released all my anger in a simple breath.

"Stella!" I heard Magnus yell.

"In here." I told him.

He walked into the living room to see me with my drink.

"My love, I have some news." He said.

"What is it?" I asked him.

"I have my magic." He told me, showing me his magic.

"Magnus, that's amazing, but how?" I couldn't help but ask.

"My father returned them. Also, he is on land, now." He said.

"Asmodeus is here!" Magnus and I yelled.

"What!?" I shouted.

"It's okay. I'll deal with it." he told me.

"Alright. I'm so happy for you my kitty cat." I told him.

"Thank you, my star." He whispered.

"For what?" I asked.

"Always being by my side." He told me.

"Always, my love." I told him.

"Now, I must deal with my father, I shall call you soon." He told me.

"Okay. Promise me you'll be safe." I told him.

"I will." He said, portaling away.

I couldn't help but smile, but it soon disappeared.

Why did Asmodeus give Magnus his magic back? I thought.

"I have a point. He wouldn't have taken it from you, just to give it back without reason." I told Magnus.

I kept thinking of reasons why, when I remember a certain scene. 

I continued wondering. Magnus. Asmodeus. Magic. What happened during this time.

Alexander! I thought.

Oh no. It makes sense.

Alexander must have made a deal with Asmodeus. Break up with Magnus, he gets his magic back. It all makes sense. My stupid Shadowhunter, always being selfless.

"Alexander, you idiot!" I yelled at him. "How could you just go and make a deal like that!" I yelled furious, marching to him. "You made us suffer." I told him.

"I'm sorry, Stella. But even I know, I would do anything for you and Magnus to be happy." He told me, pulling me into a hug.

Before I could think any further, I heard a knock.
