Clary Pov

I'm currently having one of my good hours but I don't know how long it will last. The wall between me and Tenebris is crumbling and the only thing supporting it is me. Unlike before me and Tenebris are now separate, two being's in one mind. The voice in my head is my darker side begging to be in control.

It's been three and a half months since I left Jace, Tenebris has grown stronger. Now I am able to transform into any form and I can heal any wound almost instantly but that depends on my injury. I have broken my promise to Jace, I haven't returned to him. With myself being so unstable at the moment it is hard to control my actions and it would be easy to hurt someone. I also have left my group in England they are currently searching for a cure and write to me twice a week. I am staying with Magnus at his home; he has been helping me with my behaviour. Also covering for me with Jace and keeping them away from the house and more importantly me.

I will break through, I always find I way in. Just give up now and save yourself all the pain you'll go through.

The voice is like a siren drawing me in, it takes all my strength not to give into the temptation. There are currently three stages of my personality changes. Number one is my usual self; stage two is where I'm torn between the darkness and light. This is when my attitude becomes sarcastic like Jace and I become feisty. However I still consider my moves and how they affect the ones I care about. Lastly phase three is when I am a full on demon but unlike before I don't change into a giant cat whenever I break my nail. I stay in my natural form but I'm devious, malicious and damn right evil. Magnus has put an enchantment on me so he can tell which stage I'm in. I have a nasty habit of tricking him. Stage 1 my nails are a neutral colour, stage 2 red and stage 3 black.

Right now I'm sat in Magnus living room being sick in a bucket. Not that pleasant I know but as Tenebris grows stronger, I grow weaker and the more it fights the more ill I become.

It will only get worse, give up.

The voice begs in my head. Magnus stole's into the room, his sparkly jacket blinding me. He hands me a handkerchief. I wipe my mouth and while the sickness feeling has settled I attempt to speak. "How is he?" I ask. Magnus went to the Institute today; he and Alec had a lunch date. Magnus gives me a sympathetic look as he sits next to me.

"Jace is getting more anxious and worried. This isn't healthy for him; he needs something from you Clary."

"Magnus, you know-"I was stopped mid sentence as I vomited in the bucket. Magnus takes advantage and speaks.

"You haven't seen him Clary, he is a wreck." Guilt, sympathy, hurt fills me. The emotions overwhelm me and leave me venerable.

Goodbye Clary.

I looked down at my nails and examine them, I love the colour red. I put the bucket and stand up. I look at my body; I'm wearing pyjamas which are way too big. God what on earth am I wearing? I announce to Magnus that I'm going to get changed. I like Magnus he makes good company, he lets me wander around his house but he puts spells so I can't leave. I search through the wardrobe, do I own anything sexy. After digging through a pile of clothes that belongs in a charity shop, I find a Black, one sleeved tight fitting dress that goes to my mid thigh. As I admire my red eyes, I hear banging on the door. That's when I catch the scent, pretty boys here. I stand in the shadows of the living room out of sight as goldilocks enters with Magnus.

Golden boy is hot; my heart flutters when I look at him. I feel warmth and excitement spread through my body just by looking at him. Love is a deadly cage which it seems I am trapped in.

"Magnus, please use a tracking spell or something just find Clary?" How sweet, he's smiting too. Magnus makes up some excuses, obviously trying to get him out of the house. It's time to cause some mayhem! I step into the light. Jace freezes and stares at me.

"Clary?" He gasps; you would think he had seen a ghost. I put on a flirty smile and wave at him. Magnus groans.

"Clary sit down and stay quiet."He commands. I salute him and say

"Whatever you say, Captain." I sit on the couch and watch the show while playing with my hair. Jace is full of anger.

"She was here the entire time and you didn't tell me." This was going to be better than I thought. Magnus walked closer.

"Look Jace, you need to understand that Clary is different now. The darkness has been expanding quicker than we assumed and she has been corrupted."

Let me take full control, it'll be more fun. Not yet, I still wasn't done causing trouble.

I thought it was time to intervene and help Magnus. I look at Jace

"Don't be mad at Magnus, it's what I wanted." Jace was focusing only on me now.

"What? Clary I thought you were in danger or in trouble."I saw the hurt in his eyes. He is so whipped. I needed to sort this out, our feelings couldn't continue. I needed to fall out of love with him.

"Sorry golden boy, I like you but love is impractical and let's face it stupid."Goldilocks looked like I had spat in his face. I felt a wave of happiness and also a built of guilt but it was easily forgotten.

Time for the show's finale. Finally I'm in full control.

Magnus gazed at my black nails and mumble "Perfect timing."
