Chapter 2

A Night to Remember

Jace watched her face turn bright red. When he asked her if she wanted to spend the night with him. He may not have used those exact words but the meaning behind his question was clear and he could tell by her face that she knew exactly what he was eluding to. He knew she was probably tipsy and didn't think her words through when she told him to go and order room service. Jace had enjoyed turning that around on her. It was clear from her expression and gaze that she was attracted to him. She stood silently contemplating his proposal. Clary was far from wasted and would be lying if he said he was sober himself but they were still alert to consent to their actions. He quickly downed another bottle of water in preparation. If she did say yes, he didn't want to be sloppy. No, he wanted this woman bad. She made him feel alive. He hadn't felt that in a very long time, not since his mother left him with the Lightwoods. The fact that he had to work to get her only made him want her more. He was waiting for her reply eagerly. Jace met her gaze and held it. After a moment Clary pierced her lip and nodded her head in agreement. He was about to speak when the DJ announced the last call. The club's manager came up and shook his hand. He was disappointed in his bad timing. If she refused, he would give her his number and offer to take her to dinner tomorrow night if she wasn't working. He found it amusing to be giving a girl his number for a change. "Mr. Herondale thank you for hosting tonight's party. I hope you enjoyed yourself." Hodge smiled. "Yes, Hodge. I had a wonderful time. Thank you for the great customer service and allowing me to corrupt your bartender." Jace winked. At this Hodge smiled. "Normally it is our policy that staff not engage in drinking but a few shots never hurt anyone. We are circulating the guests out. If you give us a few minutes for the crowd to leave I think you should be able to make your exit without concern." He smiled. "Why thank you," Jace smiled.

The manager walked away gesturing to speak to Clary. He couldn't help but feel saddened when he saw her walk away down the back stairwell. Another girl got behind the bar and started clearing off the drinks quickly. Jace took the seat he had been sitting at most of the night waiting for Clary to return when then new blonde bartender approached. "Did you find everything to your liking Mr. Herondale?" she flirted. "I did thank you but if I may ask, where did Clary go?" he asked. At this, the blonde girl smiled. "Oh, Clary is going home. She can't hold her alcohol like I can." She winked. Crap. He hadn't given her his number or anything. Maybe she was waiting for him outside the club? Then again it was crowded and the entrance was away from the exit. He wouldn't even know where to begin to look for her. Damn it! Maybe this blonde could help? "That is a shame. I wanted to treat her to dinner before she left," he smiled. At this, the blonde's eyebrow rose but not in petty jealousy like he would have assumed. "And she agreed to this?" she asked. Jace nodded his head. "Hodge sent her away before I could give her my number, though. Do you think you might get her for me, uh-"

"Kaelie, my name is Kaelie and unfortunately I can't. I would but she already left." She replied. Jace frowned. He couldn't help but wonder if Kaelie would be willing to give him her number. Then again that would be overstepping his bounds. If Clary wanted him to have it she would have given him, it. "I would be more than happy to tell you where she is, though." The blonde whispered leaning over the bar. Jace was taken back by her eagerness. Normally girls were catty and backstabbing. He had seen a girl knock over another's drink in order to gain his attention. He hoped this wasn't a trick. He nodded his head as she grinned. "Go outside and down the escalator to the Chandelier Bar. It is the giant bar in the center of the Chandelier on the second floor. If she is not there, ask someone to direct you to the secret pizza place, she will defiantly be there." She whispered. Jace smiled. "Thank you Kaelie." He replied dropping a $100 on the bar. The women picked up the bill and handed it back to him. "That's unnecessary." She announced putting the bill in his shirt pocket. "Just make sure to show my friend a good time and we'll call it even." She winked before walking away. Jace stood flabbergasted. Clearly, Kaelie was a wing-women and a damn good one at that.

"Sir," Bat announced. "We're going to the Chandelier bar, Bat. Let's go." Jace smiled. "It would be wiser to wait for the club to empty out before we-" he began but just cut him off. "Don't have time. I have a date with a redhead." Jace replied throwing on his coat on and bolting down the stairs. Bat chased quickly behind him. Luckily for them, most of the people were gone which made exiting the club easier. Thankfully they were able to leave out of the main floor which was normally reserved as the entrance. It was two in the morning, most of the people were asleep or drunk and took little notice of him. It was nice not to be mobbed by fans. Jace took the escalators down into a massive three-story chandelier made out of Swarovski crystals. It didn't take him long to spot the petite red head at a table alone eating pizza with water. Bat looked at him curiously before his face turned into a bright grin. The bodyguard knew where this was going though he was probably surprised that Jace was putting forth this much effort. Normally girls came to him without him even trying. He came up beside her and pulled out a chair. She jumped a little finally noticing him.

"Where did you get that pizza from?" he asked sitting down. Bat took a seat at a small table behind him. He was keeping watch while giving him privacy. Jace appreciated the man more and more every day. Clary jumped a little as she turned to look at him. A clear blush on her cheeks as she lit up in a smile. "You don't know about the secret pizza place, handsome?" she asked sweetly. The alcohol was obviously starting to take more effect. She was relaxed, flirty and still hot as hell. "No." He said eyeing her plate as his stomach growled. He looked down in surprise rather embarrassed. The red head smiled and handed him the spare pepperoni slice. "I got you a piece." She grinned. "Really?" Jace asked raising an eyebrow. How did she know he was going to be here? "No, but I'm full so here you go." She replied. Jace smirked and took it. "You know the quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach." He added taking a bite out pizza. "So I've been told." She shrugged. He stuffed the rest of the slice in his mouth. He really did need to eat more. Clary chuckled as he inhaled the food offering her water. He smiled taking it and drinking it without a second thought. "Now that you fed me, I might never leave." He smiled handing her back her water. Clary took another sip and smiled meekly. "Maybe I don't want you to." She whispered softly as her green eyes locked with his.

Jace leaned forward cupping her face with one hand. Her eyes grew wide in surprise as her lips parted slightly. His fingers brushed over her soft skin. The alcohol in his veins was giving him liquid courage. He was never usually this forward. He normally didn't have to be; the girls were forward enough for both of them. Moving his head closer she leaned it. She closed her eyes as his lips brushed softly against hers. The reaction was immediate. Sparks ran through his body as her lips molded to his. He had kissed many girls but nothing compared to this. His veins were on fire and his heart threatened to beat out of his chest. His hands went to her hair as he unconsciously ran his hands through it. He was normally so poised with women and in control. That all seemed to go out the window with her. Bat cleared his throat as Jace came back to his senses, though mostly he needed air. Big deep breaths of air. His eyes opened and met her slowly opening green orbs. It seemed that he had much of the same effect on her. He smiled appraising the look of desire that illuminated her eyes was enthralling. "We should go somewhere more private." Jace whispered taking Bat's hint. At this Clary's eyes widened in fear.

"No, I can't. I have to get to my car and go home." She stuttered nervously. Jace smiled. She was clearly not the kind of girl who engaged in one night stands. All the better for him. He wasn't looking for a bimbo anyway but she wasn't getting off that easily. She drank too much to drive and he doubted she would let him pay for a cab. Might as well try his luck. "I can walk you to your car." He smiled before kissing her softly on the lips once again. She closed her eyes and melted against him. "That way I know you're safe." He whispered. The red-head nodded and got up from the chair quickly, too quickly. With her state of mind, she lost her balance and fell against him. "I'm sorry, alcohol makes me clumsy even when I'm not being kissed by a-" She blushed, catching herself. He chuckled at the effect he was having on her. "It's alright, I like you this close anyway." He replied wrapping his arm around her and leading her up the escalator.

He had asked her about work when Clary was telling him about how her roommate Maia had gotten sick. Bat followed quietly behind them as they reached the hotel elevator. She was still chatting, mesmerized by his gaze when he guided her into the small glass compartment. She looked around before realizing where she was. By then the elevator began moving as Bat pressed the button for their floor. "We're not going to the garage are we?" she asked her green eyes not showing any trace of anger. If anything she looked amused. He had intended to let her crash with him until she sobered up. He didn't intend to take advantage of someone intoxicated but he cared about her safety too much to let her go. Even if she did take a cab he would feel better if she stayed with him. She had been nervous at the bar but the food and water were beginning to take effect now. He could even feel his mind clear. She smiled seductively at him. "No, we're not." He replied. The red-head smiled meeting his gaze and running her hand down his sculpted chest. His eyes glazed over with lust before pushing his body lightly up against her. She gasped at the contact and looked at him hungrily. He had to keep telling himself to wait till they got to the room or he would strip her down and take her right here in the elevator. That wouldn't have been good for his image or Bat's psyche.

"Regardless what happens tonight, I won't let you drive drunk, Clary. You can sleep it off and leave in a few hours or you can stay the night…" he began trying to give her a choice Clary lifted herself up on her toes and pulled his face down to hers. It was clear which option she wanted now. God, she drove him crazy. He kissed her blissfully losing himself in the feel and scent of her. If it wasn't for Bat they would have missed getting off at their floor. Jace pulled her up against him she wrapped her legs around his waist. God, she was flexible too. He was so screwed or rather she would be soon. He walked down the hallway locking lips with her. He really needed to thank Bat later for being so patient with him. When they passed the last door Bat opened the door to his room. It wasn't the penthouse but a normal room for once. He was happy, he didn't need her thinking he hosted massive orgies every time he was in town. Jace stepped in with the red-head still in his arms, kissing her lazily. Bat pulled out the NDA and a pen and lifted it up to Clary. "Please sign this miss." Bat spoke. Damn it, he had forgotten all about the paperwork. Couldn't he just be normal for once? If he had his way this wouldn't be a one-time thing. "It's okay Bat." Jace panted, breaking away from her lips. "But-"

"No buts. I know. Please leave." Jace commanded before bringing his lips back down to the confused Clary's. Bat rolled his eyes and shrugged with his don't blame me when Alec kills you gesture before walking out the door. "Is…he-?" Clary asked breathlessly. "Don't worry about him. Just focus on me, baby." He whispered shutting the door and laying her down on the bed. Clary's body jumped as his fingers dipped under her top and pulled it off over her shoulders. His mouth planted hot kisses all over her chest as his fingers snaked around her back unhooking her bra. He clearly had done this before many times. Clary tried to hold the thought but couldn't think straight as the rock god took over all of her senses. She moaned in pleasure as he sucked on her bare nipples. The way she responded to him was incredible. He body jumped and she moaned with every touch, kiss, and lick. Jace leaned down and pulled her boots off. He watched the red-heads breasts move up in down panting. She looked up at him as he began removing her boots. Once they were off to leaned forward and kissed him pulling him back on top of her. Her hands nervously went to his dress shirt and began undoing the buttons. Once the buttons were undone he threw the dress shirt and undershirt onto the floor. Her hands were shaking as she looked at him nervously. He smiled sweetly kissing her forehead and bringing her hands to trace his sculpted chest.

"Don't be nervous. I'm not going to hurt you. Do you want to stop?" he whispered kissing her neck. Clary's eyes rolled back as her hands raked down his torso stopping at his waistline. He jumped as her hands gripped his manhood firmly. "Just impatient to have you in me." She replied. He growled pushing her back against the bed. If she wasn't in her work uniform, he would have torn the shorts and fishnet stockings off her body. Instead, he took his time and removed the items carefully, kissing the bare skin it revealed. He thought about bending down between her legs and really making her moan but thought against it. Not for the first time, she was impatient and so was he. Let him save his tricks for later and savor the lust right now. He stood up from the floor. "Jace." She moaned impatiently. The blonde smirked putting on a condom and dropping his pants to the floor. He leaned down and lined up against her. His toned chest and stomach were hard against her soft bare breasts. She was so small and soft and perfect. God he barely knew this girl and he was practically in love with her. "Are you ready?" he asked teasing her entrance. Oh God yes." She replied rolling her chest for emphasis. He slammed into her as she moaned. Wrapped her legs around his torso in surprise he lowered his lips to her neck.

She was so tight. Clearly, she wasn't the sleep around type. He thrust into her as her breasts heaved up and down against his chest. Her nails dug into his back as he sucked on the soft skin at the base of her neck. He pounded into her as her legs encouraged him to go deeper and deeper. His thrusts because slow and powerful. He could feel her body tighten around him as she began to come undone, screaming his name. Jace brought his lips to the other side of her neck where he sucked on the soft supple skin. He wanted to leave a mark to remember him by, multiple marks. He hoped that the rooms beside him were vacant. Even he had to admit they were making a lot of noise. She lowered her head back as he admired the hickey he left on her neck. He grinned, something to stake his claim on her. Her moaning grew louder as he increased his speed. She was close but he was still rock hard thanks to the whiskey. His hand leaned down and rubbed her sensitive bud of nerves until she bit her lip, trying to be quiet. "Come Clary, and don't hold back." He whispered in her ear. The red-head instantly screamed as her body pulsated around him. His ego sung knowing that he had brought her to orgasm on their first encounter. He hated it when girls faked it.

She struggled to catch her breath as he pulled out of her. He was still erect as she looked at him with surprise. Clearly, the men she had before weren't as endowed. He quickly flipped her over onto her stomach. She lifted her hips as he took her again. She was still tight from her last orgasm and he intended to give her another before the night was through. This time, he entered her slowly, pulling in and out in agonizingly slow motions. He was going to build her up again before sending her over the edge. Her breathing began to quicken as her hips began to meet his thrusts. His hands reached over to cup her breasts, lightly pinching her nipples. She moaned tossing her head back. Jace's hand released her breast and buried itself deep in her hair. He wrapped her hair around his hand at the base of her neck and pulled; not too hard but just enough to get his point across. He wanted to make her submit while still giving her power. The action had its desired effect as she moaned rolling her hips against him. She began to tighten again as he felt his climax growing near. He ended to ride it out as he increased the speed her trusted into her, while tugging on her hair. When he thought he couldn't stand it anymore he reached forward and began rubbing her clitorises. She screamed out once again and this time, he joined her. Clary's body fell limply onto the bed in exhaustion. He laid down beside her as she turned around and crawled into his chest.

"That was incredible." He panted out of breath. Her green eyes looked up at him with disbelief. "You don't need to lie. I know I am not experienced or the first girl you have brought back to your room." She spoke without malice trying to catch her breath. "The first in quite a while, Red. As you can tell bimbo's don't do it for me. Was it not incredible to you?" He asked. "I never said that." She teased. His ego couldn't help but be stroked by her comment. Clary might not be the most experience but she was by far the best he ever had. There was something different about sex with her than the others. Perhaps because it wasn't meaningless? He did intend to keep her locked up here with him as long as possible. By then he hoped to wine and dine her until she fell to his charms and agreed to another date. Maybe the next one in public. He really liked this girl. Jace looked at her, grinning. She smiled at him as her eyelids began to droop. Clary giggled as he sat up and gently wrapped her in the bed sheets. She was so tired and could barely keep her eyes open but the idea of being tucked in delighted her. "Sleep Red, you'll need it before round two." He teased. The red-head yawned and closed her eyes obediently. He finished tucking her into the sheets before going to the bathroom and flushing the condom down the toilet. He quickly washed his hands and came back into the bedroom. He debated throwing on shorts but decided against it. They would be off again in no time if he had his way. Clary was fast asleep when he returned making him smile. Jace snuggled into the bed beside her before pulling her into his chest. She wasn't the only one who needed rest. It had been awhile since he last had someone in his bed as well. He wrapped his arm around her, warming her cooling skin. Then he closed his eyes. He would give it a few hours before he woke her again for round two. Maybe he could even use some of his tricks to illicit new sounds from her?
