Hey guys, umm so here's chapter three, I wasn't really able to focus when I was writing it so it may come out as uninteresting but still, I hope you like it XD

Clary woke up to the sound of water dripping on the floor. She tried to open her eyes, but they were too heavy. All she knew was that she was somewhere cold, and she was lying on something hard, like concrete. She passed out again.

"Clary. . . .Clary. . .Wake up Clary. . ."

Someone was shaking her shoulder, trying to get her to wake up. She slowly sat up, opened her eyes, and saw for the first time the person who was calling out to her. She gasped and put her hand to her mouth, He looked like an angel. With that blonde hair like a halo around his head, his smooth features, his golden eyes resting tenderly upon hers, and his lips, she couldn't take her eyes off his lips. He looked exactly like the boy in her dreams.

"Who. . . .who are you?" Her voice came out like a whisper, she cleared her throat and asked again "Who are you?"

He looked at her with a pained expression on his face, but then quickly disappeared, his face was as blank as paper, expressionless, uncaring.

"My name is Jace Wayland"

"Oh, uhm where. . . what am I doing here?"

Memories came flooding back to her and she remembered. She remembered being chased, and she was running for her life. He was the one who had saved her, she ought to be thanking him, but how could she when she didn't know if he wasn't also a threat to her?

"You were being chased, and I saved you, but you passed out, so I brought you here."

They were in an abandoned warehouse.

"How did you know I was being chased? How did you kill that. . .that thing. . . I saw it, it turned to dust when you stabbed it"

"Don't call them "it" or "things" they were once human like you. . . . and I was following you.

He didn't seem to be embarrassed by admitting the fact that he was following her. She was more confused than ever, she wanted to ask a million questions but what came out instead was

"I want to go home"

"You can't go home for now. It's not safe, you'll have to stay with me for a while"

Clary looked around and saw boxes everywhere, and dust. Spider webs crowded the room, her voice was nearly a squeak when it came out.

"Is this where you live?"

"No, this is where rats live, I just brought you here to hide for a while, there were more of them coming and I couldn't deal with them alone, no matter how strong I seem to be" He added with a smirk.

This was ridiculous, maybe he was some kind of a stalker, or maybe he was demented, but she couldn't get the image of her nearly being killed out of her head so she chose not to argue.

"Can you stand up?"

Clary nodded, Jace just looked at her for a while before standing up and turned around so that his back was to her. His voice was clouded with conflicting emotions when he spoke but with what emotions Clary did not know.

"I have a car waiting outside, follow me" and with that he stormed out.

JACE. . .

He had been watching her for a while now, since he came back to town. It had been a year since he last saw her and damn! How he missed her. So it nearly crushed him to see her and that boy, Simon nearly kissing. It took every inch of his will power not to go to them and rip Simon in half, how dare he! She is mine! At least she was before it happened and changed his life, and their relationship forever. He thanked the Angels for this chance to maybe. . . . maybe start over again. When he saw that man following her, he immediately sensed that something was wrong, then Clary started to run, and the man chased after her. Luckily he made it in time to save her. Then she passed out in his arms, He grabbed that moment to crush her into his arms, he had never thought that he would be able to hold her like this again.

He continued to watch her after he had brought her to the warehouse, She was just as he remembered he, beautiful and delicate, like a porcelain doll. He wanted to touch her but was afraid that she would shatter and break and this would all be just a dream. Then she woke up, and how it broke his heart to hear her say " Who are you?" He had tried so hard, so very hard to forget her, for both their sakes but he just couldn't bring himself to do it. So he decided to be cold instead, to be uncaring and uninterested towards her.

Clary stood up and followed Jace outside, her jaw almost dropped when she saw the long sleek black limousine infront of her. Jace was holding the door to the passenger side open and was waiting for Clary to get inside. Clary clamped up her jaw and got inside, Jace followed after her."To the manor" Jace said to the driver, he caught Clary's eyes staring at him in confusion and said "What?" throwing up his arms for emphasis.

"Nothing!" Clary quickly replied, they sat in silence for most of the ride, both of them staring out the window. Questions raced inside Clary's head, who was he really? Where is he taking me? Why did that man try to kill me? And what on earth was she thinking! Agreeing to stay with some random hot guy without her mom even knowing, her mom!

"oh sweet Zeus! My mom's gonna kill me!" She suddenly blurted out.

"don't worry, that's been taken care of" Jace said without even looking at her.

Clary just blinked in confusion "Wait, you know my mom? How the hell do you know who I am anyway!"

This time Jace looked her straight in the eye "Oh I know everything about you, and you used to know everything about me too"

What does that mean? She didn't remember having ever met him before. She was just about to ask that same question when the car came to a stop.

"We're here"

Clary got out first and she froze, before her stood a big mansion, with spacious gardens at every side, the mansion itself looked like it was built a century ago and reeked of elegance. Clary didn't know what to say.

Jace laughed softly behind her. "Welcome to the Wayland Manor"

He said behind her ear, his breath sending tingles down her spine.

Hmmmmmn so what do you think? Neh
