    Summary

    “Yes,” Magnus said, gentle but immovable. “You do. You need someone to take the weight. Someone to give you rules. Structure. Safety.”

    “I’m not a child.”

    “No, but you’re exhausted. Worn out from being strong for everyone else. You don’t want power. You want permission.”

    That was… too close.

    Alec shook his head, trying to laugh. “You’re talking about, what, like kink stuff? Whips and collars? That’s not—”

    Summary

    Alec was a professional man, never spoke more than necessary, of very few, expressive words that were always capable of getting the crux of the matter across. When Magnus had spoken to him, Alec had avoided looking at him for too long, avoided speaking to him for too long, always managed to pick up the tatters of his composure and leave Magnus longing to talk more, to get to know him, to learn what Alexander Gideon Lightwood had hidden under all the layers of sobriety.

    Summary

    “You’ll regret it,” Alec says before he can catch the words. He still can’t look at Magnus.

    Magnus is quiet. “How can you think I’ll regret choosing you?”

    Alec doesn’t answer. Didn’t you regret it last time?, he thinks.

    “Please try to be happy for me,” Magnus says softly. “For us.”

    And the thing is, Alec wants to be. He wants to bask in this, but he was selfish once before, blinded by it even, and he’s promised himself he’d never do that again.

    (OR:

    Magnus becomes mortal.)
