"I can't believe you'd do this to me. Blackmail." Raphael said before sighing.

"Save it. You're getting off easy." Simon said. Raphael went over to the keypad, he looked over his shoulder to look at us, signaling we should look away.

"What's his blood type?" He asked.

"Go for type O. Universal donor." Simon said and Clary nodded her head.

"Nerd." I muttered.

"Kylie Jenner wannabe." He fires back.

"Thank you, let's go." I said, but Raphael stopped us.

"I like the way you handled yourself in this negotiation. Stick around. You're advisor to the interim chapter president." He said and Simon sighed, feeling uneasy. "My new advisor has to stay here."

We were back at Jade Wolf, I was sitting down on the table. Clary then decided to sit next to me.

"Hey," She said and I looked up. "That was crazy." She said. "The other dimension, I mean."

"Yeah, it was." I said with a chuckle at the end.

"What did he give you?" Clary asked and I raised my brows. "The others were talking about it so much, that Mad Hatter party night was um, your anniversary. Yours and Alec." She explained and I pursed my lips.

"He um, he gave me this small diamond necklace," I said and I put my hands around the necklace, only to found out that I wasn't wearing it. "Oh right. It's from the other dimension." I said and Clary gave me an apologetic smile.

"He really loves you, in that dimension. Izzy told me all about it." She said. "And I'm sure, in this dimension, it's not any less."

"Yeah, um." I managed to say. "Thanks Clary." I said and she gave me a hug.

"Hey, can I talk to you girls?" We heard a voice say. We turned around and it was Michael Wayland.

He sat down across us. "Jocelyn and Angela told me that you girls were going to be hidden from Valentine." He said and I looked away. "Especially you, Valerie. You're an heir to him." He looked at me and I pursed my lips together.

"I knew she was carrying you when she fled from Valentine.
But I never told him no matter how much he tormented me. And as for you Valerie, as the time goes by, he wanted to take you in with him. Valentine gets whatever he wants."

"Valentine thought my mother was dead." Clary continued and that caught my attention. "Why would he ask about my mom and Angela?" Clary asked.

"Because he never gave up hope.
Would it help if you knew how much he loved her? And he would have loved you girls too.
He's fierce in his love."

"Because he was so twisted. He's a mass murderer." I said.

"And now he has her somewhere."

"And not to mention that my mom is missing without a track. Valentine has her, I'm sure of it." I crossed my arms together.
