Summary:


“Alec Lightwood? That boy puts family and duty before anything else. But he’s smart, Magnus. Very smart. And your succession is not as yet secure. You could do with someone very smart on your side. And someone whose brother is in the Palace Guard.”

“I can’t help but feel they’d be more on our side if we hadn’t just ordered them into servitude,” he retorted and turned back to the Lightwoods only to find Alec standing not two feet away.

“My lord,” he said and bowed.
 
Two years ago, Magus returned to his father’s kingdom to find his old friend – well, possibly more than a friend – Alec Lightwood pressed into service in his household. In those two years, Magnus has fallen deeper and deeper for him, but can’t break through Alec’s walls of propriety.

Now, in the run up to the Seelie Queen’s visit, more and more is happening within the court that could push Alec out of his grasp forever, from potential arranged marriages to his own father wanting to steal Alec to his own bed. And Alec still has no idea what a simple touch from him can do to Magnus – but is about to find out.

Summary:


He had been in love with Magnus for a long time, but lately it was as though the tension between them had been rising, just waiting to snap, and there was something so indescribably terrifying about jumping into that unknown that it had consumed his thoughts. Before, any relationship with Magnus other than friendship had always been seen through a lens of impossibility, but all of the idle touches and long gazes that had been occurring in recent months had Alec on edge constantly, waiting for something, anything, to happen.

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.
