Work Text:
That day, Magna did not expect anyone to visit her because she had moved all the meetings with customers to a different day. In the morning, she just put on her comfy clothes, which consisted of a hot pink shirt with a glittery star and loose yoga pants. Even her makeup was less grandiose than usual.
But surprisingly, just as she happily slumped down on her sofa after having breakfast and checking her text messages, someone decided to make her day worse after all. The annoying sound of her bell rang once and quickly stopped.
She stomped to the communicator and grumpily growled into the microphone. “WHO DARES TO DISTURB THE HIGH WARLOCK OF BROOKLYN?!”
There was a silence, and then she heard a weak voice.
“Uhh… It’s me, Alexandra Lightwood. I was sent here by the Clave. We need your assistance on an urgent matter.”
Of course they would. Magna sighed, but refusing the Clave meant trouble and refusing Lightwood was double the trouble.
“Come in,” Magna said resignedly and pressed the buzzer.
Just when she wanted to pity herself for the wasted time on Clave, the Shadowhunter finally arrived at her loft. She expected another green-eyed monster, but the girl who arrived was nothing like that.
She was a goddess incarnate. Her black hair was tied with a dark purple scrunchie, and even though she wore a plain, tight shirt that had long lost its colour, it still did her breasts justice. How could it not? They were perfect, and Magna suspected she wore a sports bra. But the most striking feature was her blue eyes, which were rare for Lightwoods.
Damn, stupid, sexy Shadowhunters. Magna thought.
But Magna could not notice the way the girl slightly blushed at the sight of her and avoided her gaze. Well, maybe this would not be a waste of time after all.
“So, what do you need from me?” Magna asked.
The girl looked at her bemusedly, almost as if she forgot what she wanted to say, but then she put herself together. It was so endearing.
“There’s this cursed artefact, and we need it… uncursed,” she said lamely.
Magna lost her breath for a second; it was almost as if everything the girl did was on purpose. A seductress without any clue of being one. But Magna had her own play.
“You’re very brave, walking into a warlock’s den just like that. What if something indecent happened?” Magna said.
It was meant to be a joke, but Alexandra frowned as if she took it seriously. Magna sighed. She knew those bigoted Shadowhunters; if this girl was a lesbian or bisexual, she learnt to hide it, and what’s more, she was obviously not used to such direct advances.
“Relax, now, sit down and tell me more,” Magna beckoned to her.
They both sat down on the couch, and Magna listened to Alexandra’s complaints about the artefact. She was further testing the girl's reactions when she, by accident, showed a part of her bra or, by another accident, brushed her hand against Alexandra’s. The girl never showed any traces of being uncomfortable with her actions.
When they were done, Magna promised to come into the institute and look at the artefact.
“Alright, I’ll do it, but I require a down payment,” Magna said just when they were getting up.
“Right,” Alexandra agreed and reached into her pocket, but Magna stopped her by gently touching her elbow, stilling her hand.
“No, from you I don’t want money,” Magna whispered. Suddenly, her heart rate rose, and she licked her lips as she stared at Alexandra’s.
“Is this some sort of game? Are you playing me?” Alexandra asked, but it was as if she already knew the answer. So, she was not so oblivious after all.
Magna shook her head and closed the distance between them.
“I… I’m not— what you—” Alexandra protested. Magna knew what she meant.
“Are you sure? I saw just a few minutes ago that you were very curious about what my bra looks like,” Magna said. The amusement in her voice could not be hidden.
The way Alexandra’s face flushed was not from anger. No, Magna caught her red-handed, and the girl was unable to elaborate.
“That’s okay. I wanted to show you. Now, all I require is a small kiss,” Magna said softly. She decided to be direct after all; then she slightly leaned in.
Now her mouth was just an inch from Alexandra’s. Magna slowly stroked her arms, and Alexandra let her. Then she finally sealed their lips, tasting that sweet mouth of hers. She tasted like chocolate and mint. If every hot Shadowhunter was willing to pay like this, Magna would be broke.
A sudden rush from holding the smaller girl in her arms made Magna embrace her even firmer, slowly moving her hands from her arms to the small of her back. Her body was soft and tender, hiding the firm muscles of a Shadowhunter.
The moment their tongues touched was the exact moment Magna felt a change in her behaviour. Instead of shyly standing, Alexandra’s hands started to explore Magna’s body too, and then Magna felt them under her shirt. Not that she complained.
Magna broke the kiss, trying to catch her breath, staring into Alexandra’s angelic blue eyes. She decided to move even further, licking Alexandra’s delicate neck. This was definitely more than a small kiss. Magna decided to bite on that tender flesh and suck it in.
When Alexandra cupped one of Magna’s breasts and was slowly melting under Magna’s ministrations, she decided to break it off completely. Going this far with a Shadowhunter was never a good thing, especially for a warlock.
“I’m quite satisfied with the payment,” Magna said, proudly eyeing the red mark she left on Alexandra’s neck.
“Ah… Are you gonna ask for more inside the institute?” Alexandra asked.
Magna chuckled, not expecting it. “Why? You want me to go kissing other Shadowhunters?”
“No! I… we could… you know, go on a date?”
Magna’s eyes sparkled. That was even more unexpected, but it was something she would enjoy. The girl was cute, sexy, and just the one kiss made a mess of Magna. Magna thought she would just tease the girl a little at first, but this was even better. She started to like her.
“That would be nice, Friday then? Now, I'll change my clothes and come to the institute to uncurse that cursed artefact of yours,” Magna said. She was mocking the words Alexandra used before, but not meant to be mean.
“Right, I’ll wait here,” Alexandra said, then she leaned in and quickly and messily kissed Magna once more.
Magna grinned, a little taken aback, but surprised in a good way. Oh, this girl brought trouble, and she had no idea. Magna would impatiently wait for Friday, but right now there was a job to do.
“Alright, let’s go,” Magna said once she was changed into something fancier. The hungry look on Alexandra’s face could not be overlooked, and Magna would enjoy every second of their way to the Institute.
