A 'Mortal Instruments' Fanfiction - Clary has always lived and been brought up by her father, Valentine Morgenstern. He trained her to be the best and she was but that didn't mean he was a good father. Clary had always had a tough upbringing but in ways respected her father for making her strong and without weakness. She was the perfect solider in every way. The Morgenstern name had been respected amongst the Shadowhunters and even feared for his methods. Valentine had always had big plans for Clary but on the day of her 13th birthday, he was killed in a demon attack. Ever since, Clary had lived on her own, moving from country to country and city to city, whilst still keeping up her training and studies. Read to see what happens when Clary goes to New York and meets the Shadowhunters of the local Institute. In this story, Valentine never made the circle and was actually a respected Shadowhunter. Clace story. Malec and Sizzy also. All rights go to Cassandra Clare for the characters in the story.

(Mortal Instruments/Shadowhunters FanFiction.) "In your personal opinion, why is love so hard to find?" I ask him and he chuckles "Because people are looking for it." Best friends Jace and Clary have always been close, but not always this close. After they both break it off with recent partners they decide they are done with trying to find love and decide to live a little instead, sex is so much more fun and much easier to get anyway right? With sex there is no hassle, no fall outs, no broken hearts, jealousy, tears or serious expectations, especially when you'll never be anything more than friends. Or is there? The couple will soon realise that sex doesn't stay just sex for long and that sometimes love can be found just across the hallway. (AU FANFIC)

Valentine died in the mortal war and Clary has always known about the shadow world, but they didn't know about her... This fanfic in an alternative beginning to the mortal Instruments series. I used some aspects from the original books and mashed it with my own story. I don't own any of the characters or any other aspects of this story, it's purely fan fiction. The rights of that go to Cassandra Clare. Art on my story cover is by - Loweana
