The Innocent Life of a Shadowhunter

Chapter 15

RE-CAP:

Come to think of it, she was acting really strangely. I thought it might have just been something to do with Thomas being back. After about 15 minutes, my mother calmed down and sat on one of the sofas to read a book. Me and Jace were talking to Isabelle and Alec, when someone came through the portal.

I turned around and looked to see who had walked through the portal. At first, I thought it was some people from the clave, but it turned out to be.................
