(Loosely based on Captain America: The Winter Soldier.)

Summary:


A pacifist raised in a warrior culture, Aleksander has been the subject of his father’s ire since he was old enough to spurn the sword. But after years of scorn and abuse, Alek finally gathers the courage to do what he’s always wanted: leave. Equipped with information that could mean the salvation of an entire culture, Alek sets out to find the dreki – a race of magic-weilding shifters – and warn them of his father’s quest to eradicate their kind.

Magnus Bane, celebrated leader of the dreki, has given up everything in order to help his people. When he accepted the mantle of Drakkson, he did so knowing that life’s ordinary pleasures were forbidden to him. Magnus was happy to make the sacrifice and has never regretted that choice – until he meets Alek. Beautiful, brave, and shockingly innocent, he’s everything that Magnus didn’t know he wanted and the one thing that he can’t have.

Thrown together out of necessity, Magnus and Alek quickly move from open hostility to begrudging respect. But with war looming on the horizon and the dreki council breathing down their necks, forging a way forward together is impossible – unless both men are willing to turn their backs on everything they believe in.

After decades of war, when it becomes clear that it is only a matter of time before Edom emerges victorious, King Asmodeus agrees to bury the hatchet with Idris – for a price.

Alec, once heir to the throne of Idris, comes to Edom knowing that he’s no better than a prisoner-of-war. Magnus, who wants nothing to do with his father’s power plays and politics, is furious that his father has saddled him with an arranged political marriage.

But the peace they have bought for both kingdoms is a fragile one, and with luck, maybe this arrangement will only be temporary.

And that’s a good thing – right?

Unintended by alittlebriton*

Themes: 3×01, Alec POV, Angst, Cat-Eyed Magnus, Established Relationship, Fluff, Head of the Institute Alec, Hurt & Comfort, Shadow World Politics

Summary:

“I was flattered,” he admitted. “Not enough to seriously consider it though.” He shrugged, watching Magnus carefully, and picked up his own glass again.

Magnus looked up at him then with a sharpened gaze. “Why not?”

“Many things, to be honest. I’d miss too many people. There’s a lot of work to do here still. Part of me wondered if they were offering it to me to get me away from New York.”

“From me.” Magnus’ voice was flat with no inflection and Alec winced. He moved to sit next to Magnus and put his glass down on the table so he could take one of Magnus’ hands, his thumb rubbing at one of his rings.
