Shadowhunters: All The Legends Are True || Alec Lightwood

Chapter 9: It Was Shiny And Cool Looking.

(Rosie's Pov)

"Looking for him?" Raphael threatens.

"SIMON!" Clary yelled as I held her back.

"Be careful." I warn as I stare at the knife Raphael holds to Simon's neck.

"Don't hurt him." Clary begs.

"Really? Cause I think I've had enough of this- MUNDANE." He spits towards Simon. "Lower your weapons." Raphael demands.

We all slowly and hesitantly lower our weapons.

"Now!" Raphael says. "Follow me."

We all do as he says and we follow him down in a basement.

"Look. We don't want to hurt you." Clary tell Raphael. "We just want Simon."

"Well, we wanted you and Rosie." He added.

"Here I am." "Let's go then." Clary and I grit through our teeth.

"I said 'wanted', not my idea, but we still want Rosie."

"What the hell do you want with her?" Alec spit out of spite.

"It seems that she's more valuable to Valentine, than you would think." He said with a grim smirk.

"GO! Open that door!" Raphael commands.

"Open it." Jace says to Clary.

"But Simon will die if I do." Clary puts out.

"DO IT!" Simon cuts in.

She pushes the exit open and we all splay out. Along with Simon.

"SIMON!" Me and Clary exclaims.

I give him a big ol' bear hug. "Thank gosh your okay." I aspirate. I let go and give him a kiss on a cheek and I wink at him as I see Clary come next.

I walk up the steps to join Alec, Jace, and Isabelle.

"So what did he mean when he said you're valuable to Valentine?" Izzy questioned.

"It's a long story, but I can sum it up for you." I say as I create a lavender sphere of magic in the palm of my hand.

"Cool." Isabelle says with amazed eyes.

"Yeah. Half-shadowhunter. Half-warlock. Livin' The Dream." I sigh as I just found out that Valentine now also wants me.

"Just Stop." I overheard Jace, but I know that tone of voice. The only time I've heard him use that voice was when I lost his first blade, when we were 8. I immediately turn around.

"Jace I'm older than you. I'm NOT in your shadows."

"If you really felt that way about her, why did you help us tonight?" Jace asked Alec.

Alec quickly glances towards me, but ends up walking away.

I look back at Jace to see him staring at Clary.

I'm just so confused right now? I'm so confused that I'm not even sure what punctuation mark to end this with?

I instinctively splinter my eyes open, while I hear my bedroom door open.

I reach under my pillow to grab my emergency blade and I throw it at the intruder.
