HIS DESTINED ALPHA

SHADOWS OF OLD FLAMES

CH -19

The night is dark and content with various kinds of mysterious things, some are known by the people while some are still hiding beside a wall that never wants to break .

But today Alec Lightwood made a decision, the decision is neither soft nor easy to take , the decision is complicated as his life. He may be the emperor of famous idris but life and fate is not with him .

He can not have both , Elliott can be his first love and now remains in the shadows of his heart but Magnus is his present, his happiness who is eagerly waiting for him to accept this relationship. That omega has done everything which he has to do , to care for him , respect him and love him , Alec is not blind that he can't see the love that omega holds for him.

But his hands are tied , tied in a responsibility of another omega , and that omega is not normal . That omega used to be his whole world, Elliott ,until someone killed him in front of his eyes and Alec couldn't do anything in order to save his love.

It was about years ago and Alec promised him that he won't love anyone except him and he remained stable in his decision until another omega came into his life and lit up his heart which used to remain dark and silent.

Magnus's behavior, his appearance, his way to love his touch, his everything made him fall in love with him . Alec understands that he has fallen in love with his omega for this reason he wants to move on from Elliott and embrace magnus.

Because Alec knows that if he will continue in this thing then he and Magnus both will suffer and Elliott never wanted that yes he loved him but Elliott always wanted him to be happy and his happiness is with Magnus.

Alec proceeds towards Elliott's grave only he knows about Elliott, as Elliott was a normal omega and used to live in Atlantis. So no one can accept their relationship and after Elliott's death Alec accepts him as his only secret .

He looks at the moon ,it feels like the moon goddess is also with him , encouraging him to choose his path. He takes a few steps and sits in front of his grave .

Meanwhile magnus is busy to notice alec he also understands that alec is downcast,and sitting in front of a grave , the question rises up in his mind of whose grave is that. Magnus doesn't know anyone who has died in his family but it can be someone's also so he doesn't mind anything.

Magnus is about to go but freezes when he hears a few words from the alpha .

" Elliott I can't do this I can't play with his feelings I know he loves me like you did and I'm happy with him but I failed in keeping my promise please forgive me " alec sobs so hard that it reaches Magnus's ear , so he is sitting in front of Elliott's grave , that Elliott whom he wants to know.

And Alec loved him so it means that Elliott is Alec's mate but how he died okay that's the another question,but who is the other person.

" Elliott I know you wanted me to be happy and I'm happy with Magnus. I love him too but I can't jeopardize you. I hope you understand my feelings for him. Elliott you will always be my first love and I'll love you as my best companion " Alec starts to cry after his statements.

Magnus doesn't know whether he is happy or sad for alec who lost his close person magnus wants to console him but he wants to hear more,

" Elliott, thanks for whatever you have done for me to love me and care for me for giving me everything. Thank you very much Elliott I miss you so much "Magnus stands quietly, giving Alec the space he needs.

But now Magnus needs to console him; he wants to be his shoulder. He knows that it's very hard for his alpha.

As Magnus approaches Alec, his comforting gesture meets an unexpected reaction. Alec's eyes, initially filled with sorrow, now flash with anger. The rawness of his emotions, combined with the vulnerability he just shared, makes him feel exposed and frustrated.
