"I won't risk my family! Not for this. Not for anything."
----------------------------------------------------------
Six months after the events of 'Not By Blood' war has been waged on the Clave with Azazel and the Lightwood-Bane household leading the charge. In the midst of the carnage, Jem Carstairs and his wife call Jem's Parabatai, Alexander Lightwood-Bane to Buenos Aires to help take over the Institute there. Alec may end up coming back home with more than he bargained for. 
Back home, Wesley Thomas discovers that there have been some random killings back in Europe that are seemingly calling him out and there is only one person that he can think of that would do such a thing; the same person that Alec Lightwood-Bane had not been able to track down.  And with a surprise for Clary in the works, how will a ghost from the past spoil his plans.

He arrives at her home with those blue eyes and she's instantly curious. What's the story behind his careful guards? But she's half demon and he's not. She's immortal and he's not. He's brave and a fighter and she's not. Her Queen- the closest thing she has to a mother- wants to kill him, and all Shadowhunters. There's nothing she can do. All it comes down to, in the end, is her demon side and his human one. They're both part angel, but only one is part demon. "Let the devil know that I was brave enough to die." *Alec Lightwood story. In this fanfic he's bi, not gay. If you have a problem just don't read it.* HIGHEST RANKING: #339 in fanfiction!

A Hidden Past by pokemonshadowhunter
32 parts Complete
For most of Alec's life, he had thought he had to hide who he was. He had feared being open and honest with himself, his parents telling him he'd never be good enough not helping the situation at all. Now, however, everything had changed. That change that had made him the happiest he has ever been, all started with Magnus. Against all odds, Alec and Magnus have found love and are now happily married. Now Alec has never been happier: he's married to the man he loves and is the Inquisitor. Everything seems right in his world, except not really. Turns out, there's a secret inside of him that even he didn't know about. A secret that threatens to tear everything he loves and cares for apart. Join Alec, Magnus, and the rest of the Shadow World as they take on a new danger that none of them saw coming. There'll be love, laughter, tears, bonding and so much more. Oh, and who are those people with wings? Why do they say Alec is so important? What's this about immortality? A/N: This story takes place after the Shadowhunters TV finale. It is NOT related to the books (and believe me I'd know since I've read them). However, I may include the occasional reference or three.
