At that sound, his arms tighten around her, trying to protect her, but not knowing what might be scaring her. It made him wonder what the 'good thing' might be that she was focusing on. "What's that, Magnus?"
It was silly, but having his clothes looking mostly like they had when he'd been captured was reassuring in some way. It helped make their situation seem normal. Giving her a soft smile, he shifted so they both could be comfortable. "We'll have to find you clothes tomorrow. Something warm and not so conspicuous."
She'd still be noticeable but not so much as she would be in her silk and jewelry. "And some food." Right now he wasn't hungry, but Alec knew that in the morning, he'd be starving after being healed so quickly. Magnus would probably feel the same way after using that much energy.
Her words reminded him of Jace and he had the feeling that if she did stay with him, then they would eventually be bound together even if there was no rune to connect them. "That's what I'm good at. I watch and protect those who are important to me." His family and now Magnus.
Looking into her eyes, Alec wondered what she saw in him. She'd given up everything she knew and broken an oath for him. "I don't know why I'm the one that would be different but I'm glad that you don't regret what you did."
