Alec Lightwood, heir to the throne of Idris, has been taught his entire life to stay clear of Brocelind Woods. But he's convinced that magic is nothing but the stuff of old legends, and he's reluctant to give up his relationship with Magnus Bane -who is as enigmatic as he is beautiful- to adhere to such warnings.
Magnus Bane grew up under the tutelage of his estranged but powerful father. Magnus knows how Idris feels about the magic that runs through his veins, and when Asmodeus disappears without a trace and leaves Magnus to Idris' mercy in his place, the very last thing Magnus needs is to be faced with answering to their Prince, his lover, who has now become his greatest enemy.
Magnus knows that his father will not stop until he gets Magnus by his side and Magnus has more than enough reasons to go to him, but is he willing to pay the price his father demands?
And is the throne Alec has spent his life coveting, and the respect of his family and his kingdom, enough for him to sacrifice Magnus, who, despite his betrayal, Alec still feels an inexplicable draw towards?

A Hidden Past
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. The photos I use in here are not mine so credit to the people responsible. Also, I don't own Shadowhunters cause if I did, the show would've never been cancelled. Hope y'all enjoy! #3 in Malec as of April 4th, 2020 The sequel to this story, An Uncertain Present, is out now! So when you finish this totally check it out!Complete
An Uncertain Present
Alec Lightwood-Bane thought after becoming the archangel Remiel that life would settle back into normalcy. For a few months, he was not wrong. Magnus, his family (both old and new) and himself were able to continue on with their daily lives, taking the time to have fun together in a moment of peace. Unfortunately, that moment was only meant to last for so long. The Dark Order, thought to be long gone has risen once more. They are sure to bring death and destruction, all in search for a power that was believed to be long gone before but has recently returned. Alec has had experience with this group in the past, as have Daniel, Pippa and Harry respectively. The siblings tell him the truth: that he wasn't awakened just because of them, and that a dark evil will rise that he will be called to fight. Alec must now struggle to prepare for a battle he never asked for, all the while finding out the hidden truths unbeknownst to him. His world lays in uncertainty. Things are not as they seem. With new enemies come familiar faces, the traumas of the past come to life. Will Alec and his family be able to withstand the storm they bring? Or will they be lost in the waves of ruin sure to hit. And just who is Sara Herondale? What role does she play in all this mess?

Love, Trust, And Magic Dust
I'm new to this whole Shadowhunter's TV show but I already have the most perfect pairing! Basically, this story's about a 23(I'm guessing) year old Alec Lightwood and a 800 year old Magnus Bane. In this story Alec a prince has grown up thinking everyone from Werewolves all the way to Warlocks need to be treated equal. His parents Highly disagree. And on top of that, their arranging his marriage!! Such bull! But wait....just when he feels he'll never fall in love... He meets Magnus Bane... Read more to find out! Trust me the story is way better than the description! ~MComplete

Born Confused: Malec AU
*Completed* Alec Lightwood was your average guy. Straight A student, athletic, but had an attitude at times. Although he'd rather stay quiet than be social, like people said he was. He was a listener, but somehow he was a true leader. Magnus Bane, a very feminine bisexual. Very confident, outgoing, fashionable. He did well in school, not the brightest but not the dumbest. Just what he liked. He was very chatty and said whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted. That's when Alec and Magnus first talked, senior year when Alec was tired of trying to see if he really like Jace and he was tired of being scared of being gay. They both hope this is a real relationship, and not a test.Complete
wrong love story (Malec)
It has been two years since everything happened (with Lilith and valentine and stuff) everything is back to normal Alec is living his life so as everyone else there is only one thing Alec is carrying a secret and the only person he talks to is Magnus... But what happens when you open up your feelings in front of the person that you like or maybe even love... (Btw Magnus and Alec are not together in this story...not yet) these characters do not belong to me but to Cassandra ClareComplete
Love Lessons
Magnus is an English teacher, working in a school. He's worried about someone, this someone called Alec Lightwood. He has been worried about him for a while now and it's not until Alec doesn't show up at school that he doesn't act up on his suspicions, about what's truly going on in Alec's life. This fanfic implies abuse and bullying but it isn't explicit. The bullying is only referenced but the abuse is something they'll talk about a lot. This fanfic also implies a teacher-student relationship, so if this is something you don't like, don't read this story. The relationship is consensual, Alec is almost 18 and Magnus is 23. **Used to be My Hot Teacher**Complete
