Magnus slit down the tiles in his shower, crying. He didn't understand this pain he was feeling. He knew it rationally to be the love lost, the heartache he had never really felt.
Magnus had been around for a long time, lost a lot of people in is long life. The one he lost was more than often to death. Whether it was old age or murder, it had always been death in the end. Never had he been rejected the way Alec had done to him. He had been betrayed and cheated upon by Camille, but never met anyone quite like Alexander.
Magnus had met a lot of impotent and interesting people and never had the warlock been denied the lust he felt or stirred in others. For Magnus was a son of Asmodus, one of the seven great daemons, the daemon of sinful lust. Alec's rejection made him feel vulnerable and more exposed than ever felt before. It was simple really, Alec made him human. He both feared it and somehow got all too addicted to the feeling.
Magnus had as a child, wanted to be only human. He had been a normal kid before his mark showed, but when it did nothing had never been the same again. Magnus had been raised on a farm with his mother and her husband, both of whom raised him lovingly. Taught him to be compassioned, to love and respect others. However, when Magnus's warlock mark developed and they realized that he was the son of a demon, they both feared him.
They, his parents went against their own beliefs of fairness and treated him like he was a demon sent from hell to torment them. Magnus despised himself for being what he was, and his mother soon hung herself in their barn. When he was ten, his stepfather attempted to drown him but was instead burned when Magnus lashed out with his powers at him.
After that, Magnus had in his young days hated the mortal human world for being so narrow minded and judgmental.
Especially growing up with the Silent Brothers he had leant to hate humans and hate the human part of himself.
The hate had made him follow an even darker path. He for once started to follow the path of the demon blood in his veins. It wasn't that he hadn't tried to follow his human linage, and live peacefully but the hatred for his kind had been to big for the young warlock.
He had been betrayed by his own mother and worse was he had only been a small child that only wanted a place to belong. It had taken many years to get over guild that had followed him around since he was the fault of his mother's suicide.
It was no longer love, but hate that kept him alive. It was first at the age of 20 he had accepted himself as he was, found balance with both his human and demon side. Therefore, he had at the age of 21 set out to find the path of demons and magic.
After Magnus had accepted and started appreciating his inheritance of downworlder blood, he had stopped ageing and become immortal.
On this long journey, he learnt much about magic, angels, daemons, religion, the difference between myth and true stories. Magnus had always collected things from his journey. Rare books, artifacts and religious text.
On his travels he learned to sell his Magic for a price, as a warlock he provided a great job for the right price, at first he been blinded by money. He figured out that other things had been just at good in payment, knowledge and jewels was his favorite form of payment.
Magnus had also been taught by his journey who to stay away from, who not to cross.
Shadowhunters was on the top of that list. It was ironic something had avoided the most of his life was now what he sought.
He hated the feeling of being human yet again, what did he do last he felt this way? He closed that part of him away. To lay dormant for a century or two. How bad could it be? In 60 to 80 years his problem would be dead and no longer a concern to the warlock. Magnus found hid inner turn of switch ad pulled it. That meant his eyes, his true eyes couldn't be hold back. He was becoming more daemon than human with that came certain urges. Especially the son of a sex demon.

Izzy tried to call Magnus, a few days after the tantrum Alec had. The warlock didn't pick up. At first Izzy had accepted that Magnus was elsewhere occupied. However after calling him the 15th time in 48 hours she knew if she wanted answers she needed to go to his apartment.
She figured that even if she pressured her brother to talk he would only tell a part of the story, and not necessarily the part Isabelle needed to fix things for his brother. He was stupid man, but only the Angel knew how much she loved him. The way to hell is paid with good intention, that was all to too true in Alecs case.
Storming Magnus' apartment she had considered kicking in the door to make a dramatic entrée. Izzy knew better if she didn't want to lose her life to the powerful warlock, everyone knew that startling a more powerful source than one self in the shadow world was lightly to get you killed, so the intelligent girl approach the apartment building with trickery on her mind.
She needed to get bussed in the front door, but she could always just use her stele and draw the unlock rune. It didn't seam like a good idea with Magnus probably having a lot of magic protection to warn him of her magic use and letting the warlock get time to escape before even getting in to his apartment. She had to use her good actor skills to conn her beyond the outer door.
Okay focus, Izzy. You can do this!
She tried two buttons before going through and getting an answer.
"Hallo?" sounded an old lady's voice.
"Hey, I'm terribly sorry to interrupt you but I seem to have locked myself out of my apartment."
"You don't live here. Get out of here before I call the cops." One wronged move and this sweet old woman would call the cops. Not that it would her Isabelle, but her plan might not go so smoothly.
"I'm sorry, you a right. I just wanted …" Izzy started sopping. "I just really wanted to give my boyfriend a nice surprise. I'm sorry, I lost my key to his place on my way here and hoped someone else would let me in."
"Oh darling don't cry, but I can't let you in without knowing, who are your boyfriend dear?"
"Magnus, Magnus Bane ma'am." She dried her eyes as she was buzzed though the front door, thank the angel for naive good-hearted people.
To be fair it was childs-play.
Izzy considered a lot of different things she could use her new found talent for. She would make a good actress or maybe an excellent thief.
Then she only had to get into Magnus' door and everything would be fine again. Oh boy, where she wrong.

Magnus was somewhat occupied when he heard knocking on his door, at first ignored the banging. The idiot on the other side kept banging, it was a headstrong idiot, Magnus agreed with himself. He was balls deep in the boy with the blue eyes, when he finely had enough of the interruptions by the door, he finished off quick before rising from his bed to go open the door stark naked.
"Do you always answer your door naked?" it was Isabelle standing in his door. The anger came back full force. What did she dare do here?
"I don't care what you want, because you can go fuck yourself!" and slammed the door in her face. Oh, where were he? Yes the beautiful prostitute in the other room waiting to finish and Magnus could go for another round.
lillya Asked: So are we gonna have any Clary and Alec romance and action in this story? I loved the concept but I was hoping for some feels between them. and didnt in one chapter Alec say their marriage rune wouldnt be cemented unless they consumated their marriage?
Answer: The bond is binding, but Alec being a sucker for rules and tradition wants tradition in his marriage. I my self is not really a Clalec fan, because I want to be true to Alecs sexuality. But I don't know if I'm gonna make some fluff between them. I had an idea that whey where getting tired of both being lonely together pinning for someone out if reach and tried making their marriage work (could se the fun in mundane counseling), going on dates and actually ending up loving one another platonically and having a domestic relationship with children. However Alec is gay, and extremely into guys, but can't get himself to break his sacred vows, because braking them means he is gonna let go on the world as he knows it and Alec is afraid to lose more then he already has. And I dont know if I can wright it
But let me hear your opinions in the matter. I would like to get your point of view to on it, it always make my mind expand and gives me a bigger inside to what the story could become.
