"His face is right in front of mine, his breath warm and delicious against my lips as he says, "'I can handle you.'" I simply duck under his arm and say, "'We shall see.'" Clary is trained for this, to be the perfect woman, and maybe the perfect wife. It's her job, what she was born into and what she has been raised to do. But CAN she do it? Futuristic Clary/Jace.

Jace is an arrogant, spotlight-hogging lead guitarist and Jonathan Morgenstern's best friend. The trouble is, Jon's sister - Clary - can't stand him, and the feeling's mutual. But when the boys enter the Battle of the Bands contest and all but move in with the Morgensterns, the two of them are forced to see a lot more of each other than they would like. NOW COMPLETE (AH)

After Jace screamed at Clary in City of Glass, Clary had got the message. She left and didn't return. After 3 years of no contact, she comes back different, dangerous with a whole new side. Is Jace ready for that?
