His smile dimmed as Alec realized that Magnus wouldn't agree to stay behind during the fighting... if there was more fighting. The happiness he'd felt moments before turned to ice as he remembered the nightmares he'd had of what he'd assumed was his death a century ago.
He'd given his life to protect his children and now he was afraid he'd lose his new family because Magnus was afraid he might be killed. Brushing his fingers through her hair, he knew the promise was probably the best he could expect. "Magna, I..."
Even that kiss wasn't enough to ease the fear that was wrapping around his heart. "I love you too. Please be careful. I don't want to lose either one of you."
Sighing, he wondered if they could leave even if Izzy needed him and Jace was missing. Maybe if they were far enough away, Magnus would be safe. His family would be angry at first, but if he told them why he they couldn't be an active part of the search, they'd understand. "We could... leave for awhile. After the Clave's done interviewing me, they won't need me anymore."
