Sorry for the long wait. I'm not gonna give excuses cause you most likely don't want to read them. But most updates will be at random times like this. So I will apologize now for the long waits that you will have.

Okayy, well here goes nothing.


PREVIOUSLY: "Your wish is my command." He says in my ear and I giggle. He leads me over to the bar, never taking his hand off of me, and orders two shots of some black liquor. He hands one to me and takes the other for himself, still having his arm on me.

"Bottoms up Red." He says and taps his glass against mine. I tilt my head back and take the shot in one gulp. After I slam the cup down, which earns a chuckle out of him, I drag him to the dance floor.

It's time to forget. It's time to not worry. It's time to not let anything bother me. It's time to let loose.

It's time to not be me.

It's time to make bad choices.


The fact that Cam is a good foot or two taller than me, doesn't make dancing any harder, which is surprising. His big strong hands guide my hips side to side against his front. I actually find that I enjoy it. I am even getting thumbs up from all our friends that causes me to blush and him to chuckle.

As the song ends, and a slower one starts, he starts to walk away, but I'm not having it so I quickly turn around and wrap my hands around his neck and bring him closer to me. I'm really enjoying being so close to him. I don't want it to end.

"You are not getting away that easy mister." I whisper in his ear. Since I am on my very tip toes, he picks me up and I wrap my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist.

"Ohh Red. I wouldn't dream of getting away. Or making anything easy." He says as he starts to walk us off the dance floor and kiss my neck. It feels so amazing. He walks past our friends and slams us into a corner and continues to kiss me. My hands end up in his silk like hair and when I tug on it, to bring his face back to me, he moans a bit and that turns me on even more.

With the music, the warmth from the drink, and the feeling of having Cam touch me; I am in heaven. I have never felt like this. I kiss him back and invade his mouth with my tongue which he just sucks on. I can't help the moan that escapes me as he roams his hands all over me.


At some point his mouth leaves mine but connects with my neck. He is not only kissing but biting and I find it is amazing. Something about his bite is calming and makes me want more. Until I hear "Clary!"

I sit straight up, well as much as I can considering I am still pinned against a wall in his arms. I look around to see who called my name but no one is looking at us.

"You okay Red? Did I do something wrong?" Cam asks as I continue to search the area around us.

"Umm. Yeah. Yeah. I'm fine. Sorry. Just thought I heard something." I reply as look at him. He is incredibly hot and the look of concern on his face melts me but the look of hunger in his eyes unnerves me for some reason but I let it pass and kiss his neck. "Now what were we doing?" I ask in between kisses. "Ahh yes. It was something along this line I believe." I say is a low breathy voice as I continue to kiss his neck.

"Red. If you want to stay in your clothes you need to stop that. Otherwise I can't be blamed for what might happen." He just barely gets it out before I bite his neck and he moans and pushes me against the wall even more.

"Clary. Listen please. You need to stop. You don't know what you are doing. There are things you don't know yet. Clary please. Just stop." I stop, without hesitation this time. I know the voice, and I know I am the only one who can hear it. Once again when I look at Cam he looks concerned but the look in his eyes scares me this time.

"Red, you sure you're okay?" Cam says as he slowly puts me down on my feet. I blink a few times and look back up at him, and get that scared feeling again. Something is not right.

"Ohh yeah. I'm good. I'm just gonna umm get some air. Be right back" I stammer out as I head towards the door. I don't even stop or turn around when the alarm on the door goes off. Once I'm outside I run. Run as far and as fast as I can. I run until I run face first into something, well someone is more like it.

I fall flat on my ass and stare up at a tall dark man. I have never seen him before. As I stare at this man I find him smirking down at me. He has a knowing look in his eyes and it spikes fear all through me. I try to stand up but something knocks me down. It wasn't anything hard, it was surprisingly soft. I try standing up again, but once again I'm pushed back down.


"Dude! WTF!" I yell but when I try to stand up, this time I can. "Can I help you? Stop staring at me creeper." I say as I cross my arms over my chest.

"You need to learn manners, Clarissa. Didn't your mother teach you to respect elders." He sneers.

"Hey man. Take it back a few steps. First, my name isn't Clarissa. But you don't need to know what it is. Second, you don't know my mother so leave her out of this. So if that's all, I'll be going. Kay. Thanks Bye now." I all but yell in his face. Now that I really see him, he isn't that much taller than I am. Now that I really see him, he seems vaguely familiar.

I'm getting ready to walk around the stranger when I hear "Clary. Stay calm. Don't upset this guy. He's extremely bad news." Jace said in a calm, but frantic voice. "Jace, I don't even know this guy. I'm not trying to start a fight or anything. I just want to get home. Are you there? I need to talk to you." I replied hoping to keep all the expression off my face in front of this stranger, since he is watching me carefully. "No I'm not back yet. Sorry. I'll explain everything when I see you. Try to go back and find Daniel. Tell him I said 'Code Run-In' He will understand. Stay safe. I'm sorry." He replied and I felt him leave my mind.

I try to step around the strange man who's stare is making me quite uncomfortable, but something soft blocks my way again.

"Not so fast Clarissa. We still need to discuss that lack of your manners." he said as he eyes go over my body. Something about that look and his voice sends chills down my spine and I wish I never would have left the club.

"Again sir, that's not my name. You must have me confused with someone else. But excuse me I need to go now." I say as I turn around and head back the way I came and call Luce.


"Umm, Hello?" Luce answers slightly breathless.

"Umm, Hey Luce. Its Clary. I left the club to get some air and got lost." I reply while looking over my shoulder and see the man has disappeared. I don't know if that makes me feel better or worse.

"Clary, is anyone with you?" she sounds frantic this time.

"Umm, no. I left Cam there. That's how I got lost." I say as I walk faster back the way I think I came.

"Clary. Listen to me carefully. You need to get inside, somewhere where there are a lot of people and light. Danielle and I are on our way." she sounds upset and I can hear the music getting softer in the background.

"Luce, I don't know where I am. I'm in some alley. I'm really sorry for messing up your date." Again I'm checking over my shoulder, but see nothing.

"Don't even worry about it. This is what friends are for. Do you think you can get up to a roof or something. It would be easier for us to find you." and this time I hear no music but I hear Izzy and Simon talking to Daniel.

"Umm yeah. I see a fire escape. Give me a few and I'll be on top." I look around once again.

"Clary, just put your phone on speaker and put it in your pocket. I don't want to lose you. Be careful. We will be there as soon as we can." Luce all but commands.

"Roger that captain." I say to lighten the mood. I do as she says and put my phone in my back pocket. I can't reach the fire escape latter, so I back up a few feet for a running start. I jump and reach the bottom rung and pull myself up. I get up the first latter and get to the landing. I take a moment to check my surroundings again, but this time I spot a shadow.


I calmly take my phone out as I head up the staircase. "Umm, Luce. I'm walking up the fire escape and I might just being paranoid but there is a shadow at the end of the alley and I think he is watching me." I try not to sound scared and keep my voice low.

"Okay. Clary. Get to the top as soon as you can. Daniel is already in the air looking for you. Izzy and I are walking along the main street and Simon is running through alleys. Maybe its him who you saw. Stay calm." It sounds as though she is running and at this point I am grateful for my friends.

"Yeah maybe it is Simon." I say as I look around again and this time I don't see anything. "I'm almost to the AHHH!"

"Clary!" Luce screams as I drop my phone.

But there is a hand already picking it up. It's the man I saw earlier, but this time he is floating above the roof, handing me my phone. I gently take it back and hear Luce screaming at me.

"Umm, thanks sir." I saw as I walk towards the middle of the roof. "Umm, Luce." I say as quietly as I can while keeping an eye on the floating man who is just staring at me.

"OMG CLARY! Are you okay? What happened? Is Daniel there yet?" Luce all but screams in my ear.

"I'm fine. He's not here yet. But umm, Code Run-In." I hear sharp intake of a breath and her yell "Izzy, Code Run-In. He's here. Not a drill. Tell everyone. Go up to the roof. NOW!"

"Clary, listen to me carefully. Do not, I repeat not, take your eyes off of that man. I'll explain everything later, but right now trust me and do whatever I say. Got it?" I can hear her running and detect an angry edge to her voice.

"I got it." I reply as quietly and confidently as I can.

"Do something, anything you can, to let Daniel know where you are." she is still running.

I think about what I can do, all while keeping an eye on the floating man who is just floating circles around me, watching me. I have no idea what I can do.

"Clary, use your powers. Dig deep and you will know what to do."

"Jace, I don't even know what powers you are talking about. How will reading his mind help me let Daniel know where I am."

"Your father is part angel. He has many powers, that you got. Just believe in yourself."

"Jace I have no idea what you're talking about!"

The floating man is coming closer, I try to back up, and he continues. I end up near the edge of the roof.
