Forbidden

by Huaile

Jem's heart races faster, faster still, as Will's lips press into his neck, a breathy moan escaping his lips as his head lolls back. He feels the smirk against his skin and then Will bites down hard, and then he feels Will's tongue languidly lap against his skin, and by the Angel, it feels so good.

4. Two Cities

Now, some of you may be asking, "I know who Jem is, but who is Jessica?" Well, it's actually Roonilwazlibross, who requested this coupling. It's kinda shorter than the other chapters, but... -shrugs- She's also written her first story, "How To: Bake Cookies With Your Parabatai" (a Heronstairs coupling) and please support her and review.

(I forgot this before) Reviews:

Squidgy78: Obviously, yes, not a one-shot, but I'll stop if I run out of couples (which seems to be pretty soon)

Uchiha Bara: Thanks! And again, I love the profile picture. It's Kuruma, right?

Roonilwazlibross: I hope you like it, I mean, it is your chapter

Despite what he told himself, what he told Tessa…he loved her. She was so

Forbidden,

but how could he not love her? She was beautiful, yes, but also funny and smart and brave and

Forbidden.

Yes, Jem did have Tessa, but she was the moon to Jessica's sun. Yes, they would be married (again), but he couldn't deny the pull, almost electric, to Jessica. Even though she wasn't a Shadowhunter, not even half, like Tessa, he loved her. Loved a mundane.
She was why he lived on. (not Tessa)
She was why he stayed a Shadowhunter. (not Tessa) Then he could protect her.

He knew how

Forbidden

she was, to love, to live for, to want. But he didn't care. Jem knew Tessa would be happier by his side, but also that Jessica would only be by his side. Oh, cruel fate. And then, that day, when soft lips shyly met his, he couldn't help it, he kissed her back.

Which was how they did the

Forbidden

and...well. Tessa would not be pleased if she found out. Especially if she knew that Jessica wanted to Ascend, and that Jem was willing to help her, even if it killed him (not literally, but if it came down to that, so be it. He loved her that much).

And he started at that. He loved her.

He

Loved

Her.

Not Tessa.

Will would know what to do, he had always had girls throwing themselves at him left and right, but...

Will was dead.

Magnus maybe, but he would only say to do what he knew he had to do.
So, choose the girl he'd loved for almost two centuries, or choose the most

Forbidden

girl he possibly could?

Jem smiled, closed his book, stood.

He knew who he would choose.

Because over all, want always defeated love, and the right choice always lost to the

Forbidden.
