Summary
She wasn’t even in the room. Through a door, he heard the faintest sounds of Maryse Lightwood’s voice and any semblance of hope in his chest died in an instant.
It’s an immediate reaction. One he didn’t even have to think about- it just is. The smile dropped. Alec’s shoulders tensed, bracing up against the inevitable, back going ramrod straight as his brow furrows into that awful scowl Magnus would tut over if he saw. He prepared himself to squint, to force to meet her gaze (“Alec, look at me”) when it burned. His arms had folded neatly behind his back as he drew himself up to face her. A soldier preparing for battle. He heard Maryse’s voice and it was like he was a scared kid again and he forgot how to breathe.
He heard her and in an awful moment it was as though he was reminded of everything he was not allowed. Alec wasn’t allowed to smile or look pretty. Alec was not allowed to be happy. He never had been- that’s not what he was for, it’s not his job or his purpose.
Alexander Lightwood wasn’t meant to be happy. He never had been.
