secrets that you keep

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.
