When she touched his cheek, Alec tried to smile but his worry still darkened his thoughts. "I know. I'm afraid of losing you and our kitten too. I'm going to be careful. I promise."
But how careful could any of them be with Sebastian out there? He'd almost killed Max and he'd kidnapped Jace, what would he do to someone like Magna or the kittens?
"I'm not choosing between them and you." Or he'd try not to think of it that way. "I'm protecting you and our kitten." Meeting her eyes, he told himself that Izzy would forgive him. Clary probably wouldn't but Jace would understand. He'd do the same for Clary if they were going to have a child. "They'd understand eventually."
He didn't like the idea but if that was what they needed to do... "We will, but consider it at least? I don't want Sebastian to have a chance to hurt you."
