Summary:

Blood dripped from Jace’s hair in rivulets, ones that were rapidly turning into rivers before their very eyes. Every drop that hit the ground seemed to sound a chord inside the silence of the gathered crowds.

Well, the brat always has been mesmerizing Magnus reflected ruefully. He looked around at the faces surrounding Jace, shadowhunters, warlocks, seelies, werewolves, vampires, even some mundanes. Magnus closed his mouth in a firm line, readied his magic just in case, and hoped Jace Herondale was mesmerizing enough to stop a war.

Summary:

“I don’t know. I can’t do this. I just… I think you were right. I’m stopping you from-”

Magnus shushed the stubborn boy gently, scrubbing fiercely at his wet eyes, “You’re not stopping me from doing anything, Alec. I’m so sorry that I made you doubt yourself. I was hurt but that doesn’t excuse my actions.”

“But you were hurt because of me. I deserved every single thing you did afterwards… You were justified.”

The warlock smiled sardonically, “We both came from a place of hurt… Of love and self preservation. Maybe neither of us were fully justified but that just means that neither of us were wholly to blame… Alec, if I have to I will tell you that every single day.”

Summary:

Magnus Bane has spent his life being watched over by a strange man, who claims he’s a Shadowhunter, acts like an angel, and, logically, can only possibly be a demon. The voice in his head whispers that he can trust him. Magnus isn’t so sure.

Or: In which Alec is Magnus’ (sort-of) guardian angel, Ragnor Fell is a good friend even in death, and Ragnor and Alec prove to Magnus that he is loved.

Alec understands perfectly now. Intimacy isn’t going to break him, or be his undoing. It’s going to save him, make him stronger. It dissolves his fears, or makes him brave enough to face them, to stand up and deal with the world.

Summary:

When a new same-sex dancing rule gets people talking, Magnus Bane decides to take the jump from Latin to Ballroom in order to prove that change is a good thing. Looking for a new challenge, he’s determined to win the Ballroom Championships and be crowned victorious in the first same-sex partnership. Now all he needs are the right shoes, the right music, and the right partner.

Alec is well on his way to securing another victory for his parents’ prestigious dance school, yet a new face, and surprising feelings, might change that. When Magnus turns up, he sweeps more than dancing traditions off their feet. As the competition rounds heat up, and dreams hang in the balance, can the pair prove themselves to a worldwide audience of fellow dreamers, critics and cynics?
