"You know, you don't have to do this" She knows he had made up his mind. There was no going back.
"You worry too much, Isabelle" He smirked. He knew what he was doing. They already warned him, but he wanted to prove them wrong. This is what he needed. He needed to prove himself to everyone that he was the best. The Best of the Best, That's what he thought.
"We are all just worried" She said "you don't have to do this to prove it to him"
"Oh, but I do" He said and closed the zipper of his bag. Everything he needed was to be transported to his 'Apartment' in New York. All he needed to carry was his bag filled with clothes and gadgets. He was about to walk out of the room when she grabbed his arm. He turned to her and saw her face, her eyes were soft it wasn't normal to see an Isabelle this sad, he thought.
"Just," she said to him "Don't get killed" and hugged him. She knew it was going to be hard without him. Their group of three wasn't going to like it was before. She had to be strong especially now that he wasn't their to piss her or Alec.
"Me, get killed? Who would be in their right mind to kill this gorgeous face?" And there it was again. His ego was probably bigger than his head by now, Isabelle thought.
"I'm serious" She narrowed her eyes at him.
"I was just kidding! Geez, can't you take a joke?" He said and smiled at her. At least he didn't comment again, She thought. His phone started to ring in his pocket, He took it out from his pocket and answered.
"Agent Herondale speaking" A few second passed "I'll be down there in five" He said and ended the call and placed his phone back in his pocket.
"I have to go," Jace said "They are waiting for me".
"Okay" Isabelle said and watched him leave. This was the last time she might even see her brother. She hoped that he would succeed in his mission and bring him back safe.
"There you are" Her father said "I have been looking everywhere for you".
"I was packing, Father" She said as she placed her clothes inside a luggage.
"I hope you don't abandon this mission, Clarissa" He said "This mission means everything to me".
She scoffed "Do I even have choice?" she mumbled not expecting her father to hear her, but he did. He lifted her chin up to see his black eyes that were hungry for power.
"What did you say?" He said in an almost like a whisper. She knew that if she made one wrong move she just might unleash hell.
"Nothing" She said and he dropped her chin.
"You might as well listen, Clarissa" He said "You are the last line of the Morgenstern blood, I have raised and taught you everything you needed to learn to survive this world and I will not accept you disrespecting me. I raised you to be more than that. Do you understand me?".
"Yes, Father," She replied "But why does it have to be me? Why can't Jonathon inherit the company? Why me?".
"Because your brother was a failure!" He yelled, "Your own brother was a humiliation to the Morgenstern Family. He is an embarrassment to the public. He failed to accomplish his mission and looked what it leads to. Clarissa, you are the last chance I have to save all of this, to save our name. Do not fail me" She shuddered at his last words. She didn't exactly know what happened between her father and brother, but now she knows.
"Yes, Father" She said. She heard someone knocking when her father went to fetch it.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Morgenstern" The man in a black suit said "The jet had just arrived" with that his Father smiled and thanked him for the information.
"It's here" He said, "Get your luggage" she did and was about to step outside the hotel room when her father stopped her.
"Your gadgets?" He asked.
"With me" She said and stepped outside. Finally, she was getting away from her somewhat sociopath father. Without him always breathing down hard on her neck, always watching her every move she felt free, but it won't last long. She didn't forget her mission, the whole reason why she is even going to New York in the first place. She was assigned by her father to infiltrate the enemy and her crazy father thought she was the right person. Right now, she just had to wait for instructions.
