It seemed strange that he could mean so much to her. She had barely known him before she'd saved him. Technically, Magnus still knew little about him. But for some reason she had thought he was special and deserved to be saved. He was grateful for that but it still surprised him that he could be so important to someone that wasn't a member of his family.
But even before she had rescued him, he would have helped her escape if she had wanted to be free of Sebastian. He would have helped anyone who wanted to get away from the madman, but there was also something special about Magnus. She might not see that but he believed that she wasn't truly evil and she deserved a chance with people who wouldn't abuse her. "And it's a wonderful thing that you're alive too. You deserve to be free of him."
For a moment, he wondered what that strange noise was, then slowly realized that her catlike eyes weren't the only part of her that reminded him of felines. Magnus could purr. The sound caused him to smile as he brushed his fingers through her hair, starting to untangle it like she had for him. As he worked at some of the tangles, he considered the jewelry she had taken off and the idea of selling it. "It'd be better if we buried it. No matter what we do to it, he'll still be able to track it."
Sebastian still might be able to. The thought caused his stomach to drop and a chill to slide down his spine. "Does he have spells on any of it that would allow him to find us?" If it did, then they had to get away even if they were both tired.
But they'd have each other... something that Alec hadn't expected. The idea of someone who wasn't family wanting to protect him was strange, but it was something that gave him hope he needed after what Sebastian had done to him.
As the purr intensified, he snuggled her more, amazed at how much she sounded like a cat. "And I'm glad it's you that saved me. I'll help you find somewhere safe."
