A series of one-shots following the same background story.

Alec Lightwood was just a kid when his father, Robert, started abusing him. His mother, Maryse, had left them. After 18 years of Robert's abuse, Alec meets someone, Caleb Wright. A young man, just like him, a bit older, who shows him that he can be loved, until he changes.

Years later, Magnus Bane finds Alec in the streets, homeless.

This is a very explicit series! There's abuse, domestic violence, self-harm, gaslighting, rape, panic attacks, explicit flashbacks... most of them are implicit, but still, read at your own risk!

Most of the one-shots are named after songs, so you may recognize some of them!

I do not own these characters, only Caleb is made up! They belong to Cassandra Clare, The Mortal Instruments series!

Alec Lightwood had a successful life. He worked damn hard for it. But at the same time he was lonely. Experienced yet inexperienced. He craved love and knew he would never have it. He craved real feelings, to be loved for who he was, to be loved in a way that would satisfy him, but he knew that was an unreachable dream for him. So he buried his true self deep inside himself. So deeply that he slowly began to believe that his own false reality was real. And it worked for 28 years. Until he saw Magnus Bane in a red light window on the streets of Amsterdam. ➡️ NOTES: I was in Amsterdam a week ago. I went to the red light district. The place has such an aura that of course my Malec writing brain cells almost exploded. I started writing this the same day, during my vacation. I was going to write a oneshot...but by the end (as usual) I couldn't stop. It will be 3-5 chapters, but this time they will be shorter than usual - about 1K word / chapters. ⚠️ Warning 🔞 The story is ONLY for ages 18 +. This is adult content. I can't deny it, the atmosphere of the place turned me on...and it turned Alec on... also Magnus, of course... **** English is not my first language. Please don't compare the characters with the characters in Cassandra Claire's books. In my story you will only find references to the TV series. (I don't own any of the characters. All belong to Cassandra Claire. The story is my own. You'll find a few references to the TV series. I only use the names to make it easier to relate to the story)
