New story! The Bone-Chilling Promise will be updated ASAP tomorrow! It is 11 o'clock at night (Western US Time), but I was too excited, and decided to upload it tonight. You're welcome. ;) Enjoy this chapter! (SORRY ABOUT THE CURSE WORDS!)

Prologue

My name is Clary Fray, and I had a boyfriend named Sebastian Verlac. I didn't know he was cheating on me. It never dawned on me until I saw the faint, but very much there, lipstick mark on his neck. I am nineteen years old and I never thought I would be cheated on. When I found out and confronted him about it, he got angry and started arguing with me. We ended the relationship with Sebastian promising one last thing, "This is not over Clarissa."

That son of a bitch was cheating on me. Not to mention with that whore, Kaelie. I swear she has been with every guy in this school. And now with MY boyfriend? That was the last straw. I had seen him a couple times with lipstick marks on his neck, but I always thought I was imagining it. But that was before I could smell her perfume on his shirt when I leaned in for a kiss once. Once I smelled it, I immediately shoved him back.

"What the hell?!" I yelled. The smell was very prominent and DEFINITELY female. It smelled like flowers. "You were cheating on me?"

Sebastian stood there in silence. I took that as a yes, and immediately insulted him with every offense in the dictionary. I normally didn't curse much, but this situation called for it.

"You son of a bitch! Thinking you could get away with being with that whore for long! What were you thinking? What did I do to deserve you cheating on me?" I screamed, tears beginning to stream down my face.

He stood to his full height, and looked down at me with a sneer on his face.

"Well it's not like YOU weren't cheating either! I can see the way you look at him!" He yelled right back at me, only I was completely bewildered about who he was talking about.

"Who would I cheat with, Sebastian? At least I'm faithful in our relationship, and if you were saying that I look at Simon as if I'm in love with him, you sure are goddamn wrong. We're done Sebastian. Get out of my house." I said, putting my foot down. I was done with his crap.

Sebastian looked at me as if I were a bug on the bottom of his shoe. I glared daggers right back at him. He growled and promised me, "This is not over, Clarissa. I promise you." And with that, he grabbed his coat, and stormed out of the house, slamming the door behind him.
