Destiny's p.o.v

In my hand was pure white amadas from the Iron Sisters "Where did you get that?" Magnus says looking amazed.

You see amadas is used to forge Shadowhunter weapons, its very hard to come by unless you're an iron sister "That's for me to know and for you to find out," I say to Magnus who still looked shocked.

"So will you help us find the mortal cup?" Jace says with a look of hope, Clary seemed to be staring at him with a dreamy look in her eyes. Simon, however, looked distraught as he glared at Jace. Poor Simon.

"Yes, I will help you Shadowhunters," Magnus says, he gets a few things for tracking the cup then comes back. He closes his eyes and concentrates, I place my head on Alec's shoulder while we waited.

After a few minutes Magnus opened his eyes "Its hidden in some kind of card, Jocelyn must've had the power to put it in the card," he says looking confused.

"Do you know of any cards your mom owned," I ask Clary who nods

"Yeah mom had these tarot cards she painted years ago," she says "I think Luke has them" she continued while standing up.

"Great, you can go get them with Jace then meet us back at the Institute," Alec says.

We all thank Magnus for his help, then proceeded back to the Institute while Clary and Jace went to get the cup, much to Simons disliking of the idea he didn't say anything.

After a few minutes we arrive back at the Institute and play the waiting game, Alec and I were in our room cuddling while watching a movie.

"That Magnus Bane almost hit a nerve today," I say looking over at Alec who laughs.

"I could see, your face was getting so red babe," he says with a chuckle.

"Yeah, well I almost put him six feet down," I state actually picturing it in my head.

"Oh come on Des. It wasn't that bad," he informs giving me a playful shove.

He does the same thing when guys try to flirt with me. In fact I remember when I first met the Blackthorns and Alec got super made because Mark said I was pretty. He wasn't even flirting with me, you know it was just a compliment. But Alec blew it way out of proportion.

I still remember it as if it were yesterday.

*Flashback*

It was a bright sunny day in New York on the fine morning of July 5th 2013. It was a few months after Alec and I got married. We were still getting use to the consept of calling eachother husband and wife.

Today was a special day as we were portalling to the Los Angeles institute so Maryse, Robert and my father could consult with the head of the Institute over there.

I was really excited because it would be my first time visiting another Institute. It was something I'd always wanted to do.

"Are you ready to go my sweet girl?" Dad says walking into the room were our portal would be.

"Yeah I'm very excited dad," I exclaimed while sort of jumping up and down.

"The littlest things amuse you, my child," he says kissing my forehead.

Soon everyone else came into the room and waited for our portal to appear. Which didn't take long as it arrived right on time. So one by one, we all walked through and ended up in Los Angeles, California.

The Blackthorns were waiting for us on the other side. All lined up in a row. It was then I noticed that the two oldest Blackthorns, didnt resemble their younger siblings. These two had Blonde hair compared to thier black haired siblings.

However, I also noticed that they were just like me. Half Seelie. Which was shocking because I never thought there would be others like me.

I could hear the adults talking so I made it my que to go talk to the oldest Blackthorns. They smiled as I approched them.

"Hello, I'm Destiny Lightwood," I say holding out my hand to the girl. She was very pretty.

"Its nice to meet you. Im Helen and this is my brother Mark," she says shaking my hand. Then I shook her brothers.

"Nice to meet you," I say with a smile.

"I didnt know the Lightwoods had another daugter, and a pretty one at that," Mark says and I blushed.

However I was hoping that Alec didn't hear him because it could end badly for poor Mark. So I decided to set this straight before Alec came around.

For across the room I could see that his face was really red as he glared at the back of Marks head. Well this cant be good.

"Oh thats sweet, but Im not a Lightwood by birth. I was born a Stark (of Winterfell, lol sorry i had too,)
Im Alec's wife," I say nodding over in Alecs direction.

"Oh I'm so sorry. Arent you a bit young to get married?" He says holding his hands up in surrender.

"It was arranged by our parents since we were babies. We actually got married a few months ago and still not use to ut yet. However Alec gets really jealous. Oh great, hes coming over here," I say as Alec stomps over.

"Are you done hitting on my wife," he says giving Mark a glare. The poor Blackthorn looked terrified.

"I just said she was pretty, thats all. Im sorry man, I thought she was your sister," he says his face kinda pale.

"Well dont do it again alright," Alec says and Mark nods before Alec storms off again.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry about him," I says giving him a apologetic look.

"No it's fine, it's not your fault," he says.

"Anyway, I was curious to meet you guys because I noticed you're half Seelie," I say with a smile.

"But why are you curious about our lineage?" Helen asks with a weird expression on her face.

I didn't know how to go about answering that question so I just put my long hair in a ponytail. My elf ears poking out.

"Wait you're like us," Mark says excitedly and I smile.

"Yeah, I didn't think there were others like me out there. As its kind of forbidden to interact with the down world. But I'm glad I'm not the only one of my kind out there," I say with a proud smile.

We talked for awhile longer before it was time to head back to New York. I was hopping that I could see them again one day because it's be great to hang out with them. Best if I didn't invite Alec though.

*End of flashback*

"We can't let anyone get their hands on the cup, its just too dangerous," I say placing my head on Alec's shoulder, he rubs my arm trying to sooth me

"We will find it, then give it back to the clave so they can protect it," he says kissing my forehead.

I don't know how well Clary will like that decision as its the only bargaining chip to get her mother back.

"I love you," he says making me smile.

"I love you too," I say, and with that being said we both fell asleep watching our movie.....
