Clary POV

When she heard the voice, she instantly knew it was Jace's. She looked over to where his voice came from. He was leaning against the wall with his arms crosses, eyes on the ground. He looks stable, her mind thought. Then he looked and saw that his eyes were not the same. They had a certain amount of rage in it; that only she can see.

"Yes, I did save her," Raphael said, impassive.

"Why?" Jace asked, hate in his voice - but not just for Raphael but himself too.

"She needed the help, so I helped her. Do you have any more simple questions?" Raphael asked, amused.

She thought she could hear a low growl from Jace.

"The only thing that matter now, is that Clary is safe and out of harm's way," Simon said. He was sitting on the couch and sitting next to him was Isabelle. She was looking at Raphael, as if he were to make a move.

"Okay, so what exactly happened, Clary?" another voice said. This one was Alec's voice it was in tend of concern and curiousness.

"I was walking home and I passed this alley way and then Sebastian pulled me in and started to beat me. It felt like forever but Raphael saved me and took care of me." And he also kissed you, said her conscious. She remembered the kiss. It wasn't long but it felt like it was to her. She looked in her peripheral vision and could see that Raphael was staring at her.

"So, you have any chance how Sebastian is alive?" Isabelle asked. She shook her head. How could have Sebastian be alive? Jace did kill him.

"Well, whatever it is - ," Luke never got to finish his sentence because the door burst open and a bunch of Demons came in. She could hear her mother scream in the back – round. She felt herself being tackled to the ground. Her first thought was Jace but a set of black curls were tickling her cheek. Raphael, of course, he was closer to her. She turned her head to the side and saw Jace staring at them. Then a Demon leaped at him. He slashed it with a Seraph Blade and the thing twitched till it vanished. He felt herself being picked up by Raphael.

"Go to your room, get out of here," He commanded.

"But, what about you guys?" she asked, defending so she can stay.

"We'll be fine, now go!" he yelled and he pushed her to the hallway. She ran to her room and shut the door. She slid down the door and took a deep breath. Her head felt dizzy and heavy. She groaned and put hand to her head. She shook her head; hoping it would work, but apparently it didn't. She groaned. She got up and held her head to the door. She didn't hear anything. She opened the door ajar. She looked out, nothing. She exited her room and walked down the hallway. Still, she heard nothing.

"Hello," she called out. She walked further and further. Then she looked in the living room and gasped. Nobody was in there but blood and demon parts. Then she looked in a corner and someone was there. She stepped closer to the figure. Then she saw the glint of the cross on it's neck.

"Raphael!" she gasped. She ran over to him and saw that there was a slash on his throat and blood was everywhere.

"Wake up," she said. His eyes opened a bit and looked at her. They weren't filled with hurt or pain but lust a longing.

"Raphael," she said in a quiet voice. Then she looked back down at his throat and saw that it had healed. He reached up and cupped her face. He made her lean into him and she let him. They kissed. This kiss was different than the kiss they shared back at Magnus's house. It was passionate and hot. He had a strong grip on her waist and the other hand was fisted in her hair.

What is happening to me? Do I even have feelings for him? Her mind asked her.

Then she felt like her lungs were going to burst. She pulled away and took a deep breath. Then she thought back. I'm with Jace not Raphael. I have a boyfriend. Raphael just saved my life and nothing is between us. He won't ruin my relationship with Jace, she said in her conscious. She looked back at Raphael. He was grinning. The tips of his fangs showing.

"That was fantastic, precious. But next time you pull away, you are coming back," he said and got up. She got up too and looked around once more.

"Where is everyone?" she asked him. She felt like crying. I won't cry.

"The rest of the Demons took them. We were outnumbered. They just left me wounded. I don't think they would have any interest with me but the rest of you," he said, kicking do parts with his foot.

"Why would they want my friends and family for?" she asked.

"Maybe to lure you into a trap," he suggested.

"Why am I so special now?" she asked.

"Maybe because of that Downworlder sickness," he said. She looked at him.

"We need to go before they come back," he said and grabbed her arm. He led her outside where the moon was illuminating the streets. They walked through the empty streets in silence. It gave her the opportunity to think.

Who would do this? Of course, Sebastian, but who else. Raphael said he couldn't do this by himself, her mind was getting a little haze after she thought about Sebastian.

"Am I going to die?" she asked, trying to get a conversation started.

"Depends on if we can find that antidote, you won't," he said in a dull voice.

"Okay," was the only thing she said. She wondered where they were going. They obviously had to find her friends and parents but they needed more help. Maybe the other Vampires can help, plus Magnus, her mind said. She looked up and was surprised. They were in the Spanish Harlem. We really got here quick.

They went inside and to Raphael's room. She sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her hands.

Raphael and Magnus said that I could burn down the whole world if I go on a rampage. I would kill anybody in my path. What if I hurt my mom or Luke or Simon? What if I kill the Lightwoods? Jace? She mentally groaned to herself.

"Are you okay? You look paler than usual," Raphael asked. She looked up and saw him in front of her, staring down to meet her eyes.

"I'm fine," she said.

"Are you sure, precious. If you need anything just ask," he said.

"I said I'm fine," she snapped at him.

"No need to have an attitude. You are in my territory," he said in a warning tone. She looked away from him. She felt his hand on her chin, forcing her to look at him. She didn't make eye contact though.

"Look at me," he demanded. When she didn't, he knelt down to level with her.

"What?" she asked him, trying to sound deadly.

"Do you real want to be with him?" he asked.

"What?"

"Do you want to be with Jace?"

"Of course I do," she said, astounded. Why on earth would he ask her that?

"Are you sure? From the two kisses we share, it seems like you don't even care about Jace then," he said. She opened her mouth but closed it then. He was right. But how could he be right. She was plain and short. What could he possibly see in her? Then out of nowhere, his lips crashed with hers and this time, she melted into him, forgetting Jace.

Jace POV

His head was pounding. When he woke up, he was in the Institute library. Wait, what? Why am I in the Institute's Library? He thought. He looked around and saw that the Lightwoods were with him and Luke, his pack, and Jocelyn. Where's Simon? He was probably outside, since he couldn't come into the Institute.

"Well, you are finally awake," said a voice. He turned and saw Sebastian.

"I thought I killed you," Jace said.

"Yes but I know someone that can bring me back to life," he said.

"And who is that?"

"The Mother of warlocks," he answered, a smile on his face.

"Lilith?" Jace asked, surprised.

"I have her blood in me. That's why I am part Demon," he said.

"Why did you touch Clary?" Jace asked. He remembered that Raphael had pushed her to the ground when a demon spat acid at her and told her to go to her room. Then he saw something move fast and slit Raphael's throat and then knock everybody off their feet. Then he was knocked out himself and now he was at the Institute.

"Because I had to," he said, his black eyes like a black hole.

"But why, she said you were going to kill her," Jace said, standing up.

"If that Leech didn't get in the way, I would have killed her. But since he was there, he ruined my plans to kill her. I want to kill her and I am not going to stop till I do," he said.

"You have to go through me first," Jace said.

"I don't think so. With Raphael around, I don't think she'll pay much attention to you. She'll be following that Leech around," he said, grinning a perfect white smile.

"Why would she do that?"

"He did save her life."

"Well, you're wrong," Jace argued.

"Fine have it your way," he said.

"So, what's the real reason you want to kill her," Jace questioned, getting impatient.

"She has this sickness, if you must call it. Only Downworlders can have it but it is in her system. If she doesn't get the antidote fast, she can go on a rampage and kill everything in her way and burn down the whole world," he said.

"How did she even get it?" Jace furiously asked.

"Don't blame me because I didn't do it. And my plan is to burn down the whole world, not her. So, that's why I wanted to kill her," Sebastian said. Jace was about to ask him something but Sebastian vanished after that.

Whatever Jace had to do to cure Clary, he would do it. No matter what.

Clary POV

They were on his bed, kissing. She was on top of him, hands over his un-beating heart. He was under her, hands on her hips. She didn't know how long they were like this but she didn't want it to stop. With Jace it was a spark and electricity, but with Raphael she was going to explode from the kiss. He shifted their position so that she was under him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and the kiss deepened. She gave a moan. His lips trailed down to her neck, over her beating pulse. She was breathing hard.

I think I do have feelings for him but I am still in love with Jace, she thought in her head. She felt him pull on the hem of her shirt. His hands were under her shirt and traveling upwards. A hot trail was left where his hands wandered. She closed her eyes. Jace never did this to her before. She felt herself shudder. She closed her eyes when his hands cupped her breasts.

She wanted to stop so badly but it felt good to her. His hands were playing at the hem of her bra. Wanting to pull it off but this needed to stop. Clary was with Jace, so technically she was cheating on him with Raphael. How could he save her and let it lead her to this?

She felt a tinge of pain and sadness over Jace. She had to pull away. His lips were still at her neck so she was able to talk.

"Raphael," she said.

"Hmmmm," he said into her neck. It gave a slight vibration but it didn't stop Clary from stopping him.

"We have to stop," she said.

"And why is that," he asked looking at her this time.

"Because I am still with Jace," she answered.

"That won't get in the way of anything, precious."

"But I want to stop," she said in a low voice. Silence grew between them. Then, his hands were out under her shirt and a hard gaze appeared.

"Then, so be it," he said and got off her and exited the room. She looked up at she the ceiling, she would have gone on a rampage if could, than having to deal with this.

So she decided to sleep.

But when she dreamt, it wasn't about Jace but Raphael.
