Staring at the door, Alec felt his heart sink. First Magnus, now Adam. Next time Izzy told him to make a move when he was attracted to someone, he was going to ignore her. It wasn't worth the frustration.

Or the hurt.

Which Alec was going to very carefully ignore.

Muttering under his breath, he grabbed his gear, knowing that sparring or practicing archery on the roof wasn't going to help him deal with what was going on. Texting Jace, he told him to meet him in the armory. His parabatai probably needed a good fight to deal with his own heartbreak.

After a few hours of patrolling and cleaning out a small den of demons, they returned. Not bothering to heal the bruises and scrapes he'd acquired, he showered and headed for bed. It'd probably be another early morning but a stamina rune would keep him alert through even the classes he didn't understand.
