Heeey guys! I really hope you enjoyed the last chapter! I really love writing this story, and that is why I haven't updated 'One night can change everything', so if you are one of those people who is reading both of my stories at the moment then I'm sorry, but now you know why I haven't updated!
THANK-YOU for all of the reviews! I LOVE them! :)
Anyway I really hope you enjoy this chapter because it's Jace's POV! And I haven't done a story with different POV's before so please forgive me if you don't like it and if it is that bad I can write it again…
Just a heads up, this chapter is really sad :'(
(And to tlkin2much –I know his real name, I just wanted it to be different! :))
But ENJOY! :)
Chapter 7:
Jace POV
She left. That's all I could think about from the moment I receive the letter, and when her parents gave me a message from her. I remember the day so clearly, just like it was yesterday.
Flashback
"Jace, Luke and Jocelyn are here to see you" Izzy came in and softly said. I looked at her questioningly but all she did was shrug her shoulders and walk away.
I don't know why they want to talk to me, but I'm guessing it's for something bad. Was Clary hurt?
Where was Clary? I haven't seen her since she told me she was pregnant. Just the thought of her and the baby sent shivers down my spine and made my smile widen. Our baby.
"Jace Clary is gone!" I heard Luke say as I entered the room. I gasp and feel my face drop into a sad grimace, before I run towards them asking if she was okay. They ordered me to sit, and so I did.
"Jace Clary doesn't want you in the baby's life, you're too dangerous and she found someone better and more suiting for the baby" her mother said aggressively. WHAT! She loved me! She told me every day! I shook my head and opened my mouth to speak, but was stopped when Jocelyn gave me a letter with my name on it.
Jace
I'm sorry I've kept this from you or so long, but I don't think the baby's yours. Yes, I cheated on you. I know this doesn't sound like me, but it is and I have changed a lot, but the clary you know was only a cover around you, I don't love you. I never did and never will.
Please don't come looking for me, it will just be harder on you.
Forever gone,
Clary
I felt a tear slip down my face. This is the first time I have ever cried since I was abandoned and that was where I was 10. I felt the letter being snatched out of my hands and heard Izzy gasp, before she pulled me into a bone crushing hug, but I didn't feel anything. I was completely numb. She's gone. Clary, the love of my life, gone forever.
I dug into my pants pocket and pulled out her wedding ring. I was going to propose tonight. I heard gasps all around the room, but I only noticed her ring. I felt some tension around the room. I look up to find all of the parents sharing looks of confusion and pride. I don't know why but from that moment on my life changed. I promised I wouldn't let any other person in! Never again!
Flashback ended
From that day on I never looked at any girl the way I looked at Clary. No one was right. No one was Clary. I lost the one person in my life I actually cared for more than myself. She was gone, and so was the baby. I could have had a future of being a father. I would have been a better father than I have ever had. I would've given them the whole world.
I promised myself that I would never cry again. I knew something wasn't right. Clary would have confronted me and told me everything in person not in a letter. But the past is the past and I am heading toward my future. I am never going to find love again, with no other person apart from Clary. She was my world, but now my world is gone and I am left with emptiness.
It has been around 6 years since she left. I haven't kept count, it hurt too much. The baby must be born, if she was even pregnant for real. She should be married and happy, maybe she has had more than one child in the past 6 years, I don't know. I have gone out to bars and partied, but never have I slept with another girl, only one girl can get me in bed and she is gone.
The Clave has ordered a meeting for a new comer who has been reported to have powers, which would help us fight against the demons that have been invading Idris more lately. I wonder who they are. Are they dangerous? Are they a threat? I do not know. Ever since Clary left, have been demon hunting 24/7 and only getting a few hours of sleep daily. When I'm not hunting for demons, I am in the bar or training. I have become stronger, taller, tougher tanner and maybe even more attractive.
And if you're wondering, my attitude has become even stronger, I now call myself even more beautiful, but everybody knows that I think of myself as a letdown and unattractive. Why should I look to myself as a God, when my princess is gone? I am no longer the guy who used to tease people around; I am now believe it or not, helpful and more attentive.

(Back to reality)
"JACE! Come down stairs, we have to go to the meeting soon!" I hear Maryse shout up to me. I groan and moan as I make my way down stairs. Every time I mention Clary, or anyone else does, she stiffens and looks at Robert who also does. I wonder why. I know they know something, but they will never admit it, even if I beg for hours, they don't say a word.
As I got down stairs I see that everyone else is also wearing the black Shadow Hunter gear and uniform. When everyone was down stairs and ready, Magnus made a portal and we walked through ready to face whatever was coming for us.
XxoxX
Since the second we same through the portal I knew something bad was going to happen, and very soon, whether it was to me or a family member. WOW! Everyone was here. I thought it was only going to be a few Shadow Hunters, but something tells me that there are all these people for witnesses. I look around to see if I can find any familiar faces. I found a few but I stopped looking and turned around once I saw Kaylie ogling over me. Pffft! As if she's EVER going to get with me again!
Once I sensed that she was coming over to me, I stiffened, but not for long. I full out ran to the front of the room to avoid her, I would do anything or go anywhere to get away from that Bitch! Ever since she heard that Clary left, she's been trying to get my attention the whole time. She even once put herself in front of a Demon to get my attention. She is so dumb and doesn't get the hints that I send her!
The new Inquisitor is Robert Lightwood.
Surprisingly, it annoys the hell out of me that people are taking over my Grandmas position! She died to save me and I should save that spot for her and her only! For the rest of my life! Or eternity! Nobody deserves that position apart from her, 'Imogen Herondale'. Robert is now calling forward everybody, but calls Izzy, Alec, Magnus, Simon and I right onto the stage by him.
I don't know why we have to be up there, but I guess he wanted some protection from the guy, or well person who has 'Special' gifts. To tell the truth I don't really give a shit of who they are. I just want to get this over and done with and go home to train. I can see everyone giving me strange looks as if to ask, 'What is happening? Do you know?' I shook my head and followed the order from Robert to go to the side out of view with the rest of the group.
I saw a flash of red coming on top the stage but ignored the urge to turn around. All of us were occupied with something and weren't watching what was going on, on the other side of the stage. We just heard Robert call us to him for help and in a flash we were there. The attacker was short and had the most beautiful red hair I have ever seen before. Could it be her? Clary?
The person turned around and my eyes met the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen. Clary's eyes. There she was before me, and I had to fight her. A wave of sadness washed over me as I remembered how she left and that, that was the night I was going to propose to her. But that sadness was son filled and replaced by rage, a hot rage. The most rage I have ever felt. It didn't feel as if it was towards her, but towards everything and everyone who has ever done something bad to me or has ever made me mad. Clary also had a look in her eyes.
Rage.
Okaaay, I don't know it that was the most perfect ending I have ever had, but I tried. Okay so I'm trying to upload this really fast so that I can try and finish the next chapter for, 'One night can change everything', but I don't know for sure! I hope you enjoyed that chapter, I think that's the only Jace POV I am ever going to write for this story so I hope this was good enough for your liking! :)
