A/N: Hello my lovelies. This is the last chapter of my Dark Alec fic. I’m going to spend my time on a 25 days of Wolfstar/Marauders series after this. Taglist (on tumblr) is open so let me know. For now, please enjoy. My AO3: malecplusotherthings.
Magnus had managed to get a location out of that demon. He immediately created a portal to Iris, leading him to an old warehouse. There was a fury inside him he had never felt before. Two of Iris’ puppets immediately tried to grab a hold of him, but he managed to escape. Suddenly, he felt something restrain his arms.
“Not so powerful now, are you?” Magnus turned around to see Iris. His eyes narrowed and his rage grew.
“You want a fight? Make it a fair one, you coward bitch.” That must have wounded her pride because she immediately let Magnus go. Their fight lasted a while, and at times Magnus wasn’t sure where it would go. He felt a powerful surge of Iris’ magic hit him square in the chest, causing him to lose balance.
“You know, Magnus, you are making this way too easy for me. I guess that isn’t particularly surprising. Your dear Alexander didn’t put up much of a fight either.”
“Don’t call him Alexander.” With a renewed source of energy, he hit Iris with magic so powerful, it rendered her unconscious. He conjured another portal and sent her to the Clave in Idris. Magnus immediately scrawled to his feet and began searching for his husband. A few minutes later, he heard something.
“MAGNUS!” That was Alec’s voice. Following the sound led him to a secluded room where he found his Alexander. Alec, despite being scratched up, smiled up at Magnus. With a flick of his wrist, he freed his husband from Iris’ handcuffs. Magnus felt Alec’s weight against his shoulder. With a dramatic flourish, Magnus cured as many of Alec’s injuries as his magic would allow.
“You’re okay. You’re home.” Magnus whispered, hugging Alexander tightly. Using his magic, he replenished Alec’s strength. The young shadowhunter looked up at him slowly.
“Did-did you just give me your strength?”
“You are my strength.” Magnus said, as he quickly kissed his husband. “Besides, I was just returning an old favour.”
With that, he quickly portalled the two of them away from this hellhole.
Alec had been in Iris’ captivity for a few days now. Despite his best efforts, Alec could feel his energy draining from his body. Iris had kept him locked away in a room with her magic handcuffs restraining him. Alec had no way of fighting her back. However, the hope of Magnus being okay, of Magnus coming for him was more than enough to keep him going. He pressed his hand to his chest as he often did when he was stressed or nervous. Feeling the cold metal of his wedding ring against his rapidly beating heart always helped him calm down.
Alec broke out of his daydream when he heard voices outside. It was Iris, but Alec knew the second voice too. It was the voice he had been waiting to hear all this while. Magnus. The voices were soon replaced by sounds of crashing and falling, until there was complete silence. Alec could suddenly feel his heart pounding in his throat.
“MAGNUS!” He yelled, fearing his husband may have been hurt. The lack of a response made Alec more anxious than he had ever been. After everything they had been through regarding Magnus’ immortality, the thought of losing Magnus this way...Thankfully, his fears were short lived. Magnus burst through the door and released Alec from Iris’ hold. Alec slumped against his husband’s shoulders, days of fatigue finally catching up with him. He could feel Magnus’ magic through his body, curing his injuries.
“You’re okay. You’re home.” Magnus whispered. Alec felt his husband’s arms go around him. Soon, he felt a new vigor in his system, his fatigue was gone.
“Did-did you just give me your strength?”
“You are my strength.” Magnus placed a gentle kiss on Alec’s mouth. “Besides, I was just returning an old favor.”
