Chapter one
Clary opened her eyes, the siren would ring anytime. It was 5oclock in the morning, she could hear the waves… they always pacified her. Amatis, her mother's assistant, and clary's personal tutor, would be here any minute. Just as she thought so there was a knock on the door. "Come in" she called.
A lady stepped in, , she was a brunette with sparkling blue eyes.
"Miss, please get up and get ready your mother is waiting for you" "Amatis how many times have I told you to call me clary when its just two of us? And yes I am getting up "she said yawning.
Clary got ready in exact half an hour. She had been trained to do so since she was 11. After getting ready she headed towards the main dining hall. There stood a similar looking lady like her, red curls and emerald green eyes. As soon as she saw her daughter arrive she smiled a little and said a good morning in a stern voice. " good morning " clary replied " I hope you know todays schedule " Jocelyn asked "Yes mother Amatis told me" "good, don't miss behave"
Clary sighed inwardly and muttered a yes. She couldn't argue with her mother, she was supposed to be a good and well- mannered girl.
She had to obey whatever her mother said, it was like this since she was 7. Till 7 she lives at one of her aunts house were her mother came to visit her once every year. She missed her mother that time but know she wished her mother would go away again. Her mother was a big ship merchant and in partnership in one more bigly ship merchant Luke Garroway so Clary had to travel with her mother and Luke where ever they went. And worst of all he mother decided what happened with her. She had all of Clary's life planned out-
Getting ready; having breakfast; studying; training; lunch; then studying a different subject again; belle ; and then dinner. Thank the gods that after dinner she could do whatever she liked. This was the case since she was 7, she was 18 now, an adult she still couldn't plan her life. On the ship there where many families but none of them had children her age. She had accepted her fate long back which was unlikely to change any sooner…
