"So, have you accepted the position on the council?"
"Not yet. I told Aline I'd let her know tomorrow."
"I don't want you to move to Idris. I know it's selfish but it's the truth."

The night was still young when the couple decided to head back to Magnus' place. As they stepped through the door Magnus already conjured up martinis on the coffee table. Letting go of Alec's hand, Magnus spun around whimsically and his fancy outfit switched into Alec's worn out grey tee. Magnus happily dropped down onto the couch and picked up a glass off the table to take a sip. He looked up to meet with Alec's confused and amused stare.

Magnus placed the glass down and explained, matter-of-factly, "It may come as a shock but I very much prefer your bland attire from time to time. And to be fair you are the one who had never noticed your tees vanishing and reappearing in your wardrobe."

Alec smiled and sat down next to Magnus. "All this time I thought I was going crazy- I was starting to wonder why I would catch your scent wherever I was going even when you weren't around." He took a whiff of Magnus' hair and sighed in content.

Magnus playfully pushed him away and accused, "So I'm assuming you have a problem with me leaving my scent on your clothing? Maybe I shall do you the honor of burning all your tees and conjure a whole new wardrobe for you." He held up his hand as if to proceed. Alec quickly lowered Magnus' hand and pulled the warlock closer.

"I most definitely did not imply that. I am so infatuated by you- the simple idea of knowing that you wear my tees for comfort is making my heart explode with even more love for you." Alec placed his hands lovingly onto Magnus' shoulders and started massaging. The warlock moaned pleasingly and melted into Alec's hands. "I'm so glad to finally be able to enjoy some peaceful time with you. And I'm glad you were able to open up to me. I had a lot of fun."

"Speaking of which," Magnus pulled away from Alec and turned to face him, "Since you won the game this time, by luck, of course, I think you deserve a prize." Magnus stared at Alec with his bright glistening eyes.

A smirk crept onto Alec's face. "Oh, a prize you say." He slid his arm around Magnus' waist and pulled him closer; so close he could feel the warlock's breath. "And what might that be?"

Magnus leaned forward enough for their lips to brush but not enough to actually plant a kiss on the young Shadowhunter. Locking eyes with Alec he teased, "What is your deepest desire, Alexander? What is it that you truly want? I can give you anything you want-anything with just a snap of my fingers." He snapped his fingers, causing a hazy purple glow to surround the two.

Alec was simply taken aback by Magnus' beauty and captivated by his charisma; regardless of how long they've been together. With his breath taken away, Alec pinned Magnus down on the couch and whispered, "My deepest desire is you. I want you and nothing but you." He leaned down and pressed his body and lips passionately over Magnus'. Magnus closed his eyes and flicked his finger, turning off the lights.

The next morning, Magnus was awakened by the warmth of the sunlight through the window. He turned to the side and found himself alone on the bed. A note was in place of Alec. In a messy scribble the note read: I have to run back to the Institute. Magnus shot up as a sense of disappointment and fear washed over him. Without the position as the High Warlock of Brooklyn, Magnus felt empty and, strangely, uneasy.

Ring! Magnus picked up his phone from the nightstand. He received a text message from Catarina. It read: I'm sorry for blowing your cover with Alec. How are you feeling, my love? Also I was wondering if you will be showing up to Lorenzo Rey's party a week from now. Magnus grunted in disgust at the mere thought.

Magnus was resting on the armchair outside the balcony by the time Alec showed up. Alec smiled as he observed Magnus' face. He quietly kneel down beside Magnus and placed hand gently on the warlock's face. He whispered, "What did I do to deserve someone as beautiful as you?"

"I can ask the same." Magnus' eyes fluttered open. "Welcome back, Alec." Alec smiled as he planted a kiss on Magnus' forehead. He helped Magnus up and sat down next to him.

Alec brushed a lone strand of fringe off Magnus' forehead and asked, "What were you doing out here? I'm sorry I took longer than I expected."

Magnus shook his head while smiling at his cute little boyfriend. "Nonsense. I was feeling stuffy inside and decided some fresh air might help clear my head. When you've lived as long as I have there really isn't much to do to past time anymore."

Alec felt guilty. He grabbed onto Magnus' hands. "If only I wasn't so busy all the time. I promise, once everything settles down and there's finally some peace and quiet we can take a vacation. We can travel the world and-"

Magnus held up a finger over Alec's mouth to shush him. "Don't start making me any promises you can't keep, Alexander. I may have a whole lifetime to wait but that's just plain torture for me to look forward to something that may very well never happen." He lowered his hand and sighed.

"You can make it up to me, though." Magnus rest his chin on Alec's shoulder and said, "I have a proposition for you. It may not sound all that appealing but hear me out." Alec raised his eyebrow, signalling for Magnus to continue. "Next week I will have to attend a party in which I will be handing over the title of High Warlock over to Lorenzo Rey and as much as I detest the idea I unfortunately must show up. However, you as my loving and endearing boyfriend can lessen the sting if you accompanied alongside me."

Alec chuckled amusingly and asked, pulling away, "A party full of Downworlders? And what will I get out of doing this grand gesture for you?" He pinched the warlock's chin playfully.

Magnus waved his hand towards the loft and said, "Well I just conjured up your favorite dinner and we can have whatever you want every night leading up to the so-called party. And for dessert-" He was interrupted by Alec's lips pressing onto his. Alec nibbled onto Magnus' lower lip and breathed, "And having you for dessert."

Alec woke up with Magnus' face buried into his bare chest. He took a whiff of the dark black hair in front of him and pulled the warlock in even more. Magnus muttered, "Not yet. Give me a few more minutes..."

"Sleep for as long as you want. I don't have to go back to the Institute yet." Alec planted a kiss on Magnus' head. He ran his hand slowly up and down Magnus' soft bare back, his fingertips tingling. "If only we could lay like this forever and not have to worry about anyone or anything. How selfish would that be?"

Magnus opened his eyes unwillingly and bit Alec's chest. Alec let out a grunt but still kept his arms wrapped around the latter. Magnus pulled away, leaving a bite mark. "As selfish as it may sound, when you are with me, at least, I could only wish you would care about me and no one else. All these centuries, I've been only caring about others and how to protect others. For once, when I'm in your embrace I feel the safest."

"I'm sorry. I will try to make more time for us. I know you're devastated about giving up your position but maybe soon you'll find something else to kill time with," comforted Alec. Magnus nodded and settled back on Alec's chest. "We don't have to go to anywhere tonight. I know you don't want to go."

"It's tradition. Moreover, I already told Catarina and Madzie I would be showing up." Magnus pinched Alec's bare arm and ordered, "You better arrive on time to pick me up. And dress well. Make yourself look pretty."

Alec ignored the last part and exclaimed happily, "Madzie will be there too? I haven't seen her in so long. Don't you think kids are truly a blessing? Hey, Magnus, do you ever wonder about-" He was cut off by Magnus' light snore. His warlock boyfriend appeared to be extra tired for the past week.

"You sure bringing me here was a good idea?"
"Yeah-It's better than coming by myself. I'm joking. They'll love you."

Magnus and Alec's fingers intertwined as they walked towards the party, greeting other guests along the way.

"Just because you're the only Shadowhunter at a party full of warlocks doesn't mean you can't have fun."
"Well that's easy for you to say. You've known these people for centuries."
"You think that's a good thing? Trust me. I don't want to be here any longer than I have to. But-it's tradition for the outgoing High Warlock to pass the baton onto his...replacement."

"AAAlec!"
"Madzie! My favorite little sorceress!"
"I cannot believe you brought him just to piss Lorenzo off."
"No. I brought him because he's my boyfriend."
"Well he's good with kids, I'll give you that. Something wrong with your drink? Mine was weak as hell."

The house started to rumble and none of the warlocks could control their power as their glamour faded. Rufus tried to make a Portal to leave but ended up getting devoured by it. magnus quickly demolished it before it could hurt Alec and Madzie, revealing his demonic eyes.

"What's going on?"
"I have no idea."

Alec looked worryingly at Magnus trying to use his magic. Magnus tried to lift up a book off the coffee table but it glitched and caught on flame as it fell back down. Magnus grunted in frustration as Alec quickly put out the mini fire. "How's Catarina and Madzie?"

Magnus pinched the bridge of his nose and answered, tiredly, "They're fine. Madzie was still a bit shook but everyone got home in one piece, luckily. I mean, all except one." The warlock was having the worst headache and he couldn't get rid of his demon eyes.

"Come on. You've had a long night. Let's go to bed and we can find a solution tomorrow," Alec suggested. He helped Magnus up and they walked to the room.

Before Alec could strip off his shirt Magnus stopped him and said, carefully, "Maybe it would be best if you didn't stay over tonight. My magic is out of control and I'm scared I will end up hurting you."

Alec grabbed Magnus' hands and looked deeply into his eyes. "I have to stay to make sure nothing happens to you." Magnus turned his head away; shamed of his eyes. Alec gently pushed his head back and continued, "And you don't have to hide your eyes. I already told you. They're beautiful. You're beautiful. I love you." He tilted his head and pressed his lips onto Magnus'.
