(Clary's Pov)
There was that flash of white and then everything got golden except for a bunch of runes around. The runes kept spinning around me, and then all of a sudden, all the runes went missing except one. I squinted my eyes, staring at the rune that I had never seen before. Then I hear a man speaking.
"Clarissa Morgenstern," The voice spoke. Initially, I was very surprised, but once I looked up, I saw this male. He had beautiful eyes, a gentle smile and enormous white wings.
"Are you some kind of angel?" I say in a trembling voice. He takes flight softly and is soon in front of me.
"Yes, I am Ithuriel, I have been sent from the angels to give you a message." The man spoke. I realized I wasn't breathing at all. I take some deep breaths.
"W - What was the message?" I ask as I try to focus on my breath to calm down.
"Clarissa Morgenstern, you are one of the best shadow hunters and the only one capable of killing Valentine Morgenstern. We angels would like to give you the ability to create new runes. You are special and you know we trust you to use your power for the sake of good." Ithuriel spoke firmly.
"Oh, dear God, thank you. I'm never going to be like my father, I'm only going to use it for good." I speak with enthusiasm. Then he raised his eyes to heaven and opened his wings. He looked at me and smiled at me and flew off. The next thing I knew was that big white flash and I immediately awoke.
The sun was shining on my face and I was unable to breathe. I take some large breaths to slow my breathing. As I began to calm down, I looked around. I was alone in the infirmary, removed my blanket and came out of bed unaware of the pain in my body. When I opened the door, I looked both ways to see if anybody was there, and then I began to hear grunts. I follow the sound of Alec and Magnus fighting
(Alec's Pov)
As Magnus and I were sparring I couldn't help but feel like we had this chemical bond between the two of us. It just pulls me closer to him, it is like someone is in control of my heart. I know he feels it too, and if I can convince him to take a chance on us. I know he is afraid of being hurt, but I know we are meant to be together. As I'm not paying attention Magnus takes his staff and knocks me over with it. He then stands over me and just smirks, this made me laugh. I grab my stuff and knock him over causing him to fall on top of me. We stayed a bit with our faces super close together, I glanced down at his lips and he did the same. I slowly lean forward waiting for him to push away. With our faces so close to each other that I can almost feel his lips on mine. He pauses for a second like he's thinking about it. After he passes, he leans in even closer and presses our lips together. The kiss didn't last very long. When we pulled away, he got up pulling me up. When I get up, I take both of our staff and put them back.
"Magnus, I like you and I want to be with you," I say while I put my hand on his cheek.
"I like you too," Magnus speaks. I then feel my heart skip a beat, making it beat even faster. Magnus holds out his hand, waiting for me to come back.
The room is a dark blue with a king size red bed. There were many archery targets in the room along with a really big desk with a computer chair and my desktop. The rest of the room is covered in clothes and paintings. To the right there is a door that leads into my personal bathroom. When I reach him, we go to my room and talk. I close the door and go to sit down on the bed.
"Hey, can I ask you something?" I ask when I fiddle with my dagger.
"Yeah, sure," he spoke with a concerned tone.
"Why were you so hesitant about being with me?" I ask curiously. He pauses for a second and takes a moment to think about it. Once he knew his answer, he started to speak.
"Well, you know that I have been hurt very badly because of love. Before I met you I locked up my heart, I couldn't take any more pain. As soon as I met you my heart skipped a beat and I tried to push it down. " Magnus speaks as he comes over to me and sits down next to me.
"Trust me, I won't hurt you, to be honest, I have never liked anyone as much as I like you," I said as I reached out my hands to hold him. As I grabbed his hand, his mouth slowly turned into a grin. Just by looking at him, I broke out into a big smile and I then leaned in and gave him a peck on the cheek.
"You know I have always loved how selfless you are and how you would sacrifice everything for the people you love." He says sincerely. As he says that I can't help but feel my face reddened. My face slowly faded its grin as I recognized the sudden intimacy of the situation. Magnus then let's go of my hands and puts them on my waist.
"My attraction toward you was immediate and explosive. You are not like anyone I have ever met. I have chased you since I saw you, I love your braveness, and strength. "I speak enthusiastically. He looked so happy when I said that he pulled me closer by the waist and pressed our lips together. I took my hand and held his cheek, deepening the kiss. He finally pulls away to take a deep breath.
"It's late, let's lay down." Mags speak while he nudges his head pointing to the bed. He lets go of my hand and goes to the other side of the bed. I take off my shoes and shirt, then I meet him on the bed. As soon as I lay down, he rested his head on my chest, the next thing I knew we both passed out
