　　Alec links his arm through mine, and we leave the room. As we reach the large set of stairs, he lifts me, and with a flash, we appear at the bottom of the staircase.

　　'Figured it would save us an hour walking down those steps.' He shrugs. I laugh as he lowers me onto my feet.

　　We enter the hall, holding hands. Everyone is already in here, including Magnus, who stands by the fire holding two goblets of wine. He passes one to me and places a kiss on my cheek.

　　'You look like a goddess,' Magnus smiles.

　　'Thank you,' I reply and sip the wine.

　　Reaper perches himself on the chandelier above King Damon and Queen Maia, who sit in their chairs at the smaller table. Maia catches my attention and waves us over.

　　'You must sit at the table here with us,' Maia says. She looks Alec and Magnus up and down, 'My, my, do your men scrub up nicely,' she giggles.
