The next morning Clary found Isabelle in the training room knocking Simon down with a well placed right hook. The startled look on Simon's face made her laugh, which caught the couple's attention. "Morning Clary."

"Morning. What Simon do now?"

"Hey your supposed to always be on my side! Or is that part not in the parabatai are for?" Simon joked adding, "Besides I didn't do anything wrong. Just missed a block."

"He's right for now he's still on my good side," Isabelle smirked, " He just missed a really obvious right hook."

"It happens." Clary laughed," So Isabelle could you take over lead on these territory murders?"

"Wouldn't it best if one of the heads of the Institute was in charge?"

"We trust you Isabelle. You are an amazing Shadowhunter and have been doing this all your life. You can do it." Clary smiled.

"Ok. I'll go get caught up." with her usual saucy steps Isabelle left the room.

"Well that was a boost to her ego."

"She has errand it. Help her please. She has a great knowledge of clave policies but she doesn't have your connections to the vampires and werewolves."

"On it." Clary watched as he jogged after Isabelle. Now she needed to talk to her mother and regroup with Jace. Deciding Jace would be easier to find and talk to, she went up to his office. Opening the door she saw him leaning back in his brown leather chair, his feet up on the filing cabinet, looking out the window while talking on the phone to Alec if she has to guess. "No I don't know what it's like balancing a family, work and everything else. You chose most of that though and when the time comes so will I." There was a pause as Alec spoke, "No but I have fun trying."

"Glad to know your working so hard." Jace jumped a little in his chair before looking at her with his cocky grin.

"I gotta go Alec, the ball in chain to be is here." He laughed, "Careful or I'll tell her." He closed the phone, "What's up?"

"Well I had an idea." She moved over and sat on his lap, "What if I got my mom to plan the wedding? She knows what I like and can come up with a few ideas and ask us to make the final decision. That and giving this case to Izzy will make things easier on us."

"Ok."

"So your on board?"

"Of course. I don't want you to be stressed out."

"Ok, well I had another idea. What if I took the office with the den by our room? I can make it a meeting place and when we have kids it can be a play area, so I can still work."

"I think that's great babe."

"Well I'm off to see my mom then. The faster I get this done the faster I can get back to working." She gave him a quick kiss and moved away before he could grab her. "Don't forget everyone will be here for dinner, so make sure Taki's delivers on time."

"If I must."
