Chapter four

Clary's pov

"You can't do that. No, I would never go back with you. HURT JACE AND I WILL NOT STOP FIGHTING 'TIL EITHER YOU OR I DIE." I say. I'm so frustrated.

"What about me?" Alec asks.

"Ya, you hurt him either... There's going to be trouble." I say. I switch around so I am the one protecting Jace. Sebastian wouldn't hurt me... But he would. Not as badly as he'd hurt anyone else... but it's not that he wouldn't use force.

"Oh but Clary, I am so much stronger than you." Sebastian says, evil grin on his face. His black tunnel eyes are devouring my face. "And how would you stop me from hurting Alec... when you're stuck over there in a net?" He takes out a blade. He holds it over Alec.

"NO! I could never love you if you killed him now. I already would have trouble loving you, but if you hurt him at all..." I say. He stops.

"But little sister, I can get you to do anything to save Jace." He says, bring the blade down on Alec. We can't see him, because Alec is behind the counter, out of view. We hear a gurgle, and Jace flinches. I hold him tighter. "Now, come with me little sister, or I will kill Jace." He says.

"You couldn't kill him without hurting me!" I say, defiantly.

"Who said I wouldn't hurt you to get what I want? No body did little sister." He says, smirking.

"My name is not little sister. It's Clary."

"Ok fine, Clary, but you know it. If I had too, I would use force." We walks closer. He's only four feet from the net. Four and a half feet from Jace. "Last warning. Come with me or I kill Jace."

"How do I get out to come with you." I ask, in surrender. Sebastian smiles.

"I'll cut your way out. Ready to follow me?"

"No Clary! I'm not worth it, however cute I may be. We can fight him together." Jace pleads.

"Yes." I say drawing a breath. "Yes I am ready to go with you. I'm sorry Jace." I can't even look at his face. Sebastian cuts me out, tying my hands and feet quickly. Then he ties Jace's hands and feet too. He puts duct tape over our mouths.

"Because I know you are a biter Clary." He says. Using his strength, he puts me over one of his shoulders, and Jace over the other. As he walks out the back door, I catch a glimpse of Alec. I have to look away quickly.

"Time for me to get ready to try to rule the world." He says. And I know Jace is thinking this too, but he's trying again. And this time it might just work.

Authors note~

I do not own these characters, Cassandra Clare does.

Hope this is good enough
