Pain and I

Chapter 5- Pain and I

Clary POV

I am jolted back into reality when I hear the dreaded voice behind me.

"Why did you run away Clarissa? Are you not happy to see me?" He places a hand over his heart faking pain- if only I could show him what true pain felt like.

"No. I'm not glad to see you, Sebastian, who is ever glad to see you?" I say, turning around to face him, forcing as much venom into my voice as I could. He smirks, his eyes shining with victory over me.

"Now, now, Clarissa. That is no way to speak to your brother," he laughs, subtly putting his arms on the wall behind me, creating a cage. "We've not had one of our little catch-ups in a while, have we Clarissa?" he whispers, brushing my ear with his lips.

I try to push him off me, but before I can do anything he pushes me against the wall, crashing his lips into mine.

Throughout the kiss, I am constantly trying to push him off me, but deep down I know that my strength is no match for his. I can feel his grip, painfully digging into my arm, and I know that there will be bruises there tomorrow, but I also know, that if I scream for help, I'll be dead tomorrow. So I just carry on hopelessly trying to push him off me.

Suddenly, his lips leave mine and he begins to leave a trail of kisses along my jaw and down my throat. A silent tear escapes my eye and creates a path down my face. I know that I shouldn't cry in front of my demonic brother, it will only show him how weak and frail I really am. His hands leave my arms and trail their way down my body until they reach my hips, and they begin to dig in so painfully, that I cannot hold in the gasp of pain.

Sebastian looks up at me, horror filling his face, surprised at the emotion showing. "What have I said about crying Clarissa?" He whispers into my ear, sucking on my jaw before pulling away.

When I don't answer, he sighs and pushes me up against the wall, his hand squeezing my throat. "I told you Clarissa. I told you that very first day I met you, that I was here to protect you," he snarls, his face millimetres from mine. "How am I supposed to do that if you're not listening to what I say?" he turns and throws me onto the floor, banging my head in the process.

"How are you protecting me, if all you ever do it hurt me?" I manage to croak out, tears spilling down my cheeks.

Well done Clary, I think. You've really done it now.

He flips me over, so that I am lying on my back, and sits on top of me, straddling me and holding my hands either side of my head.

"You stupid, stupid girl, Clarissa," he grits his teeth, and I know what is going to happen next, and I'm not strong enough to prevent it. "You just never know when to keep your mouth shut do you?"

He releases my hands, knowing that I won't try and hurt him, and rakes his talon-like nails across my face. Gritting my teeth from the pain, I hopelessly try to pull my face out of his reach, turning it to the side before each fist collides with my jaw and cheek.

I scream in protest as he roughly lifts my head to meet his, capturing my lips with his, and I inwardly sigh as I hear feet thundering towards me.
