   Summary

   Alec loves Magnus enough to do the unthinkable - to break his heart. His own heart never mattered in the equation, only Magnus'.

   Demoralized, alone, and abandoned, the last person Magnus expects to show up after Alec summarily dumped him was his father, and a stubborn Max Lightwood.

   -

   With a mountain of pain, and even more unsaid between them - Magnus and Alec have to find a way forward without each other, only to realize that is not what either of them want. But after everything - is it truly worth trying again?
