Rolling his hips, he tried - and failed - to give his husband an innocent smile. "Are you sure? I know how much you love parties." Playing with Magnus' hair, Alec tried to act like he wasn't thinking of all the ways he could make his husband come. That could be a form of wedding planning. It would help them on their second honeymoon.
"If you want to try hot wax, we can, but I don't think it's on my list." He'd try it if it was something Magnus really liked, but it wasn't something that had ever interested Alec. There had to be other ways to get similar sensations even when a lover wasn't a warlock who liked to use magic in the bedroom or wherever they decided to have sex. Pulling Magnus close, he gave him a sweet kiss that was a silent 'thank you' for being open-minded to both his fantasies and what might make him uncomfortable.
When he pulled away he kissed along Magnus' jaw, hands sliding down his husband's back, tracing most of a love rune above his heart. "I know you don't. No matter what they say about Shadowhunters being masochistic, I'm not." And he'd never ask Magnus to cross that line. He loved the feel of Magnus' fangs against his skin and the sting of his nails when they both lost control, but he couldn't imagine either one of them wanting more pain than that while they were together.
It was almost disappointing that they had to focus on the strings instead of each other, but Alec had wanted Magnus to see that they truly were connected even if they could never share more than the Alliance rune. He just hadn't expected there to be more strings than one connecting him to Magnus and another connecting him to Jace.
Alec studied their hands again to make sure that he hadn't been mistaken. He wasn't. One string connected him to Magnus and the others led to the bedroom door. "It has to be but why wouldn't it be yours connecting to the one that ties me to him since he has part of my soul?" Two strings implied that Magnus' soul was somehow linked to Jace's as well.
Alec hadn't really thought of how having a parabatai would influence having a soul mate. They were bound through the ritual and their childhood together, but he'd never thought of it beyond that. Until he met Magnus, he'd never thought of having anyone in his life that might be a soul mate who was also his lover. "Does it bother you?" he asked softly, unsure of how Magnus might answer. It was one thing to know about parabatai in an abstract sense, but seeing a tangible link between the three of them when Magnus had been jealous of Jace before might anger Magnus.
