Epilogue
Later that evening Alec was sitting on the couch, watching a sitcom on TV. Magnus was laying with his head in Alec's lap as Alec gently carded his fingers through the others hair. Magnus had his eyes closed and was just concentrating on the feel of Alec's hand through his hair and the feel of the leather collar against his skin.
Alec had noticed that Magnus had not removed it. That was unusual for his Warlock. Usually once the scene was done, he'd remove the collar and hand it back to Alec until the next time. Alec didn't say anything. For one thing, he thought the warlock was asleep and for second he thought it best to let Magnus tell him what he wanted or needed in regards to that.
Magnus knew that Alec had noticed. He also knew that there was a burning question in the back of his mind. He wanted to ask it but he was afraid of rejection. So for the time being he was content to let it be. He would be happy with what he had.
