Starting Over

You Have The Right To Remain Silent

Author's Note: Shout out to powergirlehp. Thank you for being such a great reader! Also, I know there's a sentence could sound like Jace is being arrogant, but I meant for it to sound like is that he'd never force Clary. You'll probably know the sentence when you see it. And.......mature content warning from the beginning to the end of ○.

Jace

I see Clary and a man. She doesn't seem to be comfortable. I run towards them.

"Jace," Clary yells. Then, when the guy isn't looking, she runs to me.

I immediately put myself in front of Clary in a protective stance. I don't know who this guy is, but Clary doesn't seem to feel safe around him. "You stay away from her you son of a," I take a deep breath. I don't want to scare Clary..... Clary puts her hand on my back. Her hand sends shivers up my spine. Focus Jace!

"She's the mother of my child," this guy says, pointing to her obvious bulge. Wait, this is him. I'm going to make him pay. I can't hurt him right now. That would leave Clary vulnerable to attack which seems like something he'd do.

"Please forgive me," Clary mumbles. What? Forgive her for what?

"The only child we've ever had, you beat to death before they could ever be born," Clary replies steadily. I can tell she's nervous, but she keeps her brave face on.

"That's my baby Clary and we both know it," asshole comments.

"No, it's not, it's Jace's baby. I've moved on and I'm happy. You don't have any power over me anymore," Clary lies. So that's why she said she's sorry....but if it keeps this waste of space away, then I'm game.

"We've been separated since September and you're already having sex with someone else. You're such a worthless slut," he comments.

"Don't talk about her left that," I manage though clenched teeth. He just called Clary a slut. Ugh! I just want to beat the shit out of this piece of garbage.....

"I'm sure you'll agree. Tell me, how much has our dear Clary told you," the asshole comments. I can use this. He won't get away with this. Carefully, I put my hand in my pocket and clasp my phone. Then, I go to the recording app, and start recording. "You might be her prince now, but what makes you so sure you'll still find her even remotely appealing after I tell you all of the things we did together, that I made her do." I hate this guy so much. I can feel Clary trembling behind me. Her hand shaking on my back.

"Sebastian please don't do this," Clary pleas. Sebastian, huh. At least now I know his name. Good job saying it officially, I'm sure it'll help convict him.

"This is just the beginning of your punishment. Running away and being some slut with someone else are very bad things. You've been a bad girl Clary," Sebastian coldly threatens. Then, he claps his hands together. "Shall we get started then."

"Jace, when he's done, I know you'll be....ashamed and disgusted, but please don't leave me with him alone. Please, just take me home, and I'll pack all of my stuff and leave," Clary whispers into my ear, fear lacing her voice. How could she think that? I would never make her leave. I.....

"Let's see. Did she tell you about when I would hold her head against the wall and make her give me head." I clench my fists. He's trying to get you to attack him, so Clary's vulnerable..... "She would be gagging and crying, but I'd laugh as I thrusted," Sebastian chuckles evily. "Or when I would beat her senseless for making disgusting meals even though they were delicious." Don't let him make you let your guard of Clary down! Focus! "How about when I'd tie her up and listen to her scream as I thrusted inside of her. I was best if I waited until she was asleep. So peaceful and vulnerable." I just want to hold her. Ugh! This guy! I just want to punch his face in until he's begging for mercy and then ask him if he gave Clary mercy. Then, I want to see the look on his face when he realizes. "She never knew what hit her, or should I say what went into her. I mean, you've seen her body. Obviously you couldn't keep your hands off of her either." Actually, I could because unlike you I'm not a fucking sick bastard! If I ever touch her, it'll be because she wants me to.

Sebastian turns to Clary. "Did she tell you about thanksgiving dinner?" Clary tenses. "No, well, she made dinner and it was late, so I beat her, I pissed on her, and then I made her drink it. She was such a pathetic lump, crying and begging me to let her take a shower afterwards." He is so disgusting. Ugh! I want to bash his face in! I can't believe anyone would do that to another human being. Who does that?! How does he think that it's okay? Something to be proud of. My eyes see red, but I have to focus. Clary can't be left unprotected. This bastard just wants me to slip up. But how nice it would be to just bash his face in and break all of of his cowardly ribs. Maybe even knee him a few times.....Focus! I'm so glad I'm getting all of this on recording.

"S...stop p...please Sebastian," Clary manages though sobs. Clary.....my oxie. Ugh! I just want to hold her....

"You know your pleas and tears only make this more fun for me," Sebastian snickers. What a sicko! "Hmmmm, how about why all of your other babies haven't made it. Yaah, I either fucked or beat them to death. You know how they say sex during pregnancy needs to be gentle, as to not break the sac, well, let's just say we learned how hard is too hard, didn't we Clary?" I want to turn around and hold her, but I have to make sure he doesn't try anything. I wish I could just squeeze her and let her cry on my chest and pet her hair and gently whisper to her that it's going to be okay.....

"What's going on Jace?" Mr. Smith asks, approaching us. Crap!

"We were just talking Mr. Smith," Sebastian puts on his business face. Such a slimy lizard. Going from evil to professional before we can even blink. He's so disgusting.

Mr. Smith stands next to Clary. He must see her distress..... "Clary, what's wrong honey?" Mr. Smith asks gently.

Clary's still crying so hard, I can feel her body shuddering. "Mr. Smith, this....this is my ex. P...please don't leave us," Clary whispers to him though sobs. Mr. Smith dials a number on his phone. Six guys wearing security uniforms surround Sebastian.

"Take him into a holding room while I call the police," Mr. Smith says through clenched teeth. I turn my recording on my phone off.

As soon as he's apprehended, I turn around and pull Clary into my embrace. Her legs give out, but I catch her in my arms. "Jace, take her home," Mr. Smith says. I nod.
