Magnus is a good friend and the absolute best roommate in the world, so of course when Jace begs him to pretend to be his boyfriend for his family's 4th of July barbecue, he says yes. Enters Alec, Jace's gorgeous brother. Aaaand Magnus is screwed.
5 times Alec goes on a date that doesn't end well + 1 time he gets a date that means everything.
They were shopping for Madzie's Christmas gifts when it hit Alec. The thought came like an epiphany, a revelation, but it lacked the shock and the surprise he would have expected to follow suit.
He wanted a family with Magnus.
Alec knew it had been a bad idea to even go to Clary's birthday party in the first place but now Simon wanted to play Never have I ever? Fantastic, really. Because he could already see where this was headed: dirty, sexual questions that would leave him feeling awkward and...Well. He was going to regret this.
Being new at school, Magnus had absolutely no idea of who was who. It quickly became worse when he received a note asking him out and got confused between the Lightwood brothers (but really, it was all Raphael's fault!)
As a police officer, Alec thought he'd seen it all... Enters Magnus, who crushes hard on Alec and finds more and more inventive ways to get himself arrested.
Arresting Valentine Morgenstern was the culmination of Magnus' career, after months of hard work and games of hide-and-seek. He didn't expect to find a young escort in the man's hotel room though... And he certainly didn't expect his heart to act up in front of these deep hazel eyes.
Magnus and Alexander had always known that they could never have what they wanted: each other. In Rome, patricians didn't fall for slaves. Still, Magnus hoped that maybe... But hopes, in Rome, could die fast.
Magnus was seven years old when he arrived in Colorado to start his new life - with new parents, a new language, a new everything. Making friends would have helped him, except that his first encounter with the neighbours' kids didn't go too well, and Magnus vowed to hate the Lightwoods forever.
Forever. No matter what.
