Love in the Shadows •Jace and Clary•

                         Clary's POV

I sigh as I set my cup if coffee on the small table in front of me. I look up and spot Jace walking towards me. I stand up and he embraces me in a warm hug. "I really needed that" I say as I sat down again sighing. I need answers. My mother, the woman who was supposed to protect me lied to me my entire life. I don't see the world as people and cities, I see it as angels and demons. I need to know why my mother lied to me for so long and the only person other than her that can give me answers is Magnus Bane. But I can't seem to find him. Me and Jade have been searching for weeks. He is the most powerful warlock. I have to find him. And I have hope that when I do he will wake my mother up.

These past few weeks I haven't drank anything decaf. I stay awake night and day trying to find anything that can help my mother.  I don't have much time left. Valentine is coming for me and my mother. I know Jace would risk  his life to save mine and that's what scares me. Jace could possibly be the greatest shadowhunter. He can't die because of me.

                        Jace's POV

I look across the small table in the coffee shop at Clary. She was so focused. She put her hand on the table and I laid mine on top of hers. "Everything's going to be okay" i assured her. She smiled her amazing yet fake smile and went back into deep thought. She looks like she hasn't slept in weeks and I really don't think she has. Magnus Bane definitely has some spell that forbids us from finding him but Clary won't stop looking. I love her. Valentine says we are siblings but I can't and will not believe him. Me and Clary were meant for each other. There is no question about it. Valentine is coming back. I'm not afraid. I am Jace Morgenstern. And I will fight for what's right even if it costs my life.
