"You are a Lightwood, and you always will be. I never gave up hope that you would come back, that we would see you again. You would not imagine the lengths I went through to try and find you, how many times we tried to track you." He smiled at me as he held my hand tightly in his.
"That's just it." I shook my head as I pulled my hand away from his grasp, standing up from my bed. "I didn't want to be found."

Sweet Little Serena (Rewrite)
The greatest Shadowhunter of his generation is what they say about the legendary Jace Wayland. But, what you don't know, is that they also say the same of his twin sister, Serena. For Serena is many things. She is the Clave Envoy to Downworlders. She is the parabatai to Isabelle Lightwood. And Serena herself, is a Lightwood, because she's married to none other than Alec Lightwood. Having grown up together, the four of them made a promise that whenever they go on a mission, four go in and four come out. Join them as they fight to keep that promise when their world is turned upside down by the introduction of Clary Fairchild, the fiery daughter of the biggest threat to the Shadow World, Valentine Morgenstern. Will they stay together? And above all, will they stay alive? (Seasons 1-3) (A/N: This is the rewritten version of the original story already published. It is also available on AO3. Would like to note that I have nothing against Alec being gay or Malec, I love them, this was just an idea that popped into my head, so please don't hate. Please don't plagiarise any of it.)

the fallen queen | shadowhunters x teen wolf
"Why aren't you more shocked?" "I live in a world with werewolves, banshee's, twins who can form basically into Megatron, scaly lizard teenagers and washed up has-beens who burn up and come back to life. Hate to break it to you, but none of this surprises me." Sadie's life was anything but normal - from werewolves to banshee's to every other supernatural creature known to man. But one thing that always made sense to her was her family and the life she lived. She grew up as an Argent. She lived under their customs. Abided by her father's code. Trained with her sister to fight against all evil. But the life she lived for eighteen years was one forced upon her. After years of fighting off bad guys, she finally made it to prom. But that was the night when everything changed for her. She was taken by a stranger under the orders of a madman, held hostage for months, suffering a sufficient amount of mental, emotional and physical pain. After five months, she was saved. But, not by the people she had hoped, but rather by a group of stunning people covered with magical tattoos who call themselves "Shadowhunters." Which led to the reveal of the life that was once a secret to her. As it goes... the rise of a king and the fall of a queen... disclaimer; i don't own any of shadowhunters or teen wolf, only my oc and the original characters i create. don't tell my story !!

Secretly Broken *ON HOLD*
Hi! I took over this story from the user @traaassshhh because they will soon be deleting the original story. The story may change a bit because I only have the original eight chapters in a doc. Anyways, here's the description. When Stiles' dad is killed by the most recent supernatural being to terrorize Beacon Hills, he decides to visit his dad's adopted sister (his auntie), Jocelyn Fray, and her daughter (his cousin), Clary Fray. To get away from his pack... his problems. But when he arrives at a burnt-down apartment and his auntie and cousin nowhere in sight, he is thrust into the opposite side of the supernatural spectrum. Deciding to help Clary find her mother and the cup, he is faced with the task of keeping his problems and his father's death on the down low, for the sake of Clary, which is proving more and more difficult, considering he's truly broken. Clary and the others are buying his facade of sarcasm and lies... Except from one sexy shadowhunter...Complete
The Unknown Truth. (Completed TMI/Shadowhunters)
"Jace, last time he tried to get between us, I ended up with a stab wound. What if this time it's not me he hurts. What if it's you, Iz, Alec, Maryse, Simon, Magnus or even Max? I couldn't live with myself if anything happened to any of you. I love you" ➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿ I do not own the mortal instruments or its characters. Clary Fray has a dark past that threatens to harm those she cares most for, she has already lost her mother, how will she cope knowing she could be the cause of others death. When Clary witness her mother's murder she must live with the Lightwoods temporarily which includes the famous Jace Wayland. Jace Wayland is the sarcastic jerk but he soon changes his ways as he lays eyes on Clary Fray, the shy and extremely beautiful teen. Her emerald eyes enticed him in the moment they made eye contact. Some people would call it love at first sight whereas he believes it's their fate to be together and he won't let anything come between them, not even Clary's mother's murderer. Don't worry it gets more cheerful as chapters pass. Warning: This story contains strong language, violence, and grammar and spelling errors. Read at your own risk. This is my first story on wattpad so I hope you enjoy reading just as much as I enjoy writing 'The Unknown Truth.' Started- 25th January 2016 Completed- 1oth May 2016Complete
