MALEC WEEK - THE RED SCROLLS OF MAGIC
After what felt like an eternity, they were both sprawled on Magnusâs bed. Alecâs head was resting on his chest, his hand caressing Magnusâ thigh.
Magnus ignored the tingle on his skin and cleared his throat.
âWell, what?â Alec asked.
He sounded like he had no intention to move his head â or his hands for that matter.
âHow was it?â Magnus asked this time.
Alec chuckled and the sound went right through his ribs and into his heart.
âAre you asking for a performance report?â Alec questioned.Â
âNot so much a report, no,â Magnus replied. âBut I do appreciate constructive criticism.â
âYou once threatened to portal Jace to hell when he said your shoes didnât match your coat,â Alec countered.
âIt wasnât a threat. I appreciated his feedback. Jace would most definitely enjoy a trip to hell,â Magnus argued. âBesides, Iâm not talking to Jace right now. Iâm talking to you.â
Alec only hummed, continuing his ministrations with his fingers. Magnus was aware Alec was tracing something on his thigh. But he couldnât quite figure out what. It was difficult to concentrate when neither of them were clothed. Â
âSo,â Magnus prompted again. âDid you like it?â
âWhy do you want to know?â Alec asked, his voice curious. âAre you doubting your skills?â
âThis isnât about me,â Magnus simply said. âThis was your first time ever. I want to know if youâre okay.â
Alec lifted his head then. There was a smile on his lips. Magnus also wanted to know if it was one of those smiles that were reserved only for him.
âIâm okay,â Alec replied and kissed Magnus on the lips. âIâm better than okay.â
âWas it anything like how you imagined it would be?â Magnus questioned.
He didnât know why he kept asking Alec all these questions. It wasnât like he doubted his skills in bed of course.
But with Alec, everything was different.
The way he spoke. The way he fought. Even his magic, it felt different when he was with Alec.
And the sexâŚWell, he had never met anyone like Alec before.
So, it had been different as well.
Magnus just wanted to know if Alec felt the same.
âI donât think I could have imagined this,â Alec chuckled. âAnd trust me, I imagined plenty.â
Magnus laughed and kissed Alec again. There was no one to interrupt them now. Not anymore.
âWhat did it feel like?â Magnus asked after a while.Â
âMy magic is connected to my body and how I feel,â Magnus explained. âSo sex for warlocks can be a littleâŚwild.â
âI was wondering if shadowhunters felt something similar,â Magnus pointed out.Â
âIâm not sure,â Alec replied. âWe donât have magic. Just runes.â
Magnus hummed. He had expected as much.
âBut the runes are helpful though,â Alec said now.
âYes, I noticed,â Magnus giggled.
âStop it!â Alec blushed.
âSo, I guess it was just like sex for mundanes,â Magnus pointed out.
âI donât think so,â Alec replied. âIt was definitely different.â
It wasnât like Alec had any experience to compare it to. But he sounded confident.
âBecause of the runes?â Magnus inquired.
âBecause of you,â Alec smiled.
