pining | Malec Fic Library

AU in which the Clave accepts gay marriage and Alec is out and proud and completely comfortable with who he is. He’s 18 now and the head of the Institute of NYC, a job that requires all of his time and attention. Just because he’s out and happy with who he is doesn’t mean he has time for love. But sometimes love sneaks up on you when you least expect it.

Summary:

Alec slowly sinks down onto his mattress in the room at the Institute he calls his own. He folds his legs up under him, curls his arms around his waist, thinks better of the position and readjusts so his feet are propped on the down comforter and he can rest his head on his knees. His arms wrap around his legs and he tries so hard not to cry. It would be easy – he knows it would be easy – to just let everything out but he keeps it in because that’s just who he is. He’s used to this, he thinks, wanting something (someone) he can never have. It’s his own fault, he thinks, a product of being too weak. Maybe his mother should have pushed him harder when he was growing up because he has too many damn feelings.

He pushes his face into his knees and tries valiantly not to cry. He is largely unsuccessful.

Alec and Magnus are close friends but Alec wants to be more than that. Finally, he gets his chance. Or, the pining, getting-together fic that’s been haunting me for days.

Summary:

Magnus gets tangled up in a spell that has everything he touches, living or not, turn to gold. Thankfully, the key to breaking any fairy curse is true love’s kiss. Alec would be the simple solution to this dilemma – except that despite his best efforts he and Magnus are still not together, an uncrossable line drawn on the sand between them.
–

“Is anything different for you now?” Alec asks quietly. “If I tell you again that I’m sorry, if I ask you again to give us a shot, that I really think we can make it work – will that make a difference?”

Summary:

“Hello, I’m the owner of Pandemonium—the bakery right next door.” he gave Alec a deliberate once over, leering in that coquettish way that tells Alec that Bane likes what he sees—And he might be just a tad bit smug that the visceral attraction is mutual. “sorry if we end up running you out of business cheekbones, you understand ’s just the rules of the jungle. Nothing personal on my end.”

–

And that was it. Their fate was sealed.

IF Alec was anything, it was competitive. So now it was his fucking duty to not only thrive, but turn the tables and make it so Pandemonium was the one hanging for dear life, and it was Alec offering up his condolences to the dying business.

Summary:

Alec Lightwood wasn’t used to doing things for himself. He had grown up looking after his siblings and learning how to be the perfect Shadowhunter: never had he considered even the idea of falling in love.

For over a century, Magnus Bane had closed himself off to feeling anything for man or woman. After a particularly nasty break up, he worried that opening his heart up again would result in nothing but another heartbreak.

When the two of them meet at a mundane coffee shop, it’s a rush of feelings that Alec has never felt before, and that Magnus had thought he would never feel again. The only problem? Both think the other is a mundane, and for centuries, Downworlders and Shadowhunters have been forbidden from falling in love.

Alexander Lightwood is the Crown Prince of Idris, eldest son to King Robert and Queen Maryse. As the heir to the crown, he is betrothed to Lady Lydia Branwell, daughter of a high-born Baron. Their match is one smiled upon by all throughout the kingdom, for what is not to adore about a young couple, calm and gentle and undoubtedly prepared to rule the lands fairly when the time comes.

There are, however, two people who do not smile upon this union. Two people whose hearts are entwined in a forbidden love, doomed to be apart despite how desperately they yearn for each other.
