Hi guys, sorry for the big wait again. When my exams are over i promise to update more often. This is the new chapter but i am writing this as i go so...yeah. Sorry if it's reallly bad but my author juices just havent been coming to me lately. Must be all those exams. Anyway, i hope you enjoy it and please please please review so i know what to do and maybe you could give me some ideas as to what to put next.
Slowly I open my eyes which are heavy with sleep. I am lying on a bed with silk woven covers and fluffy pillow. The room I am in is elegant to the point of too much. The chandelier above me is a mass of many tinkling pieces of glass. The carpet on the ground is plush and a rich mahogany colour. The walls are panelled in a deep reddish-brown wood that gives the whole room and rich feel to it. To my left is a mirrored door which probably is a closet. On the wall on my right is a door which hopefully leads to a much-needed bathroom. As I take this all in, I realise that I have absolutely no clue whatsoever what has happened in that last twenty-four hours. It's like there is a gap in my mind. I remember everything from before that but then there is this huge blank spot of which there is nothing but the feeling that something is very wrong. Why am I in this strange room in what is probably some mansion? Who has brought me here? Why hasn't Jace come to see me yet?
That's when the images come flooding back to me. Well, partly. Sebastian. He is standing in front of me. His tousled hair and gorgeous features are right there in my face. I hear Jace call my name, but who really cares about Jace? That stupid blonde angel boy.
I must be in Sebastian's mansion. I get up and head to the bathroom to take a shower and wash off all the grime that has become my life over the past few months.
The shower is warm and there are so many buttons on the side that I just don't know which one to press. I choose the top left. A spray of lemon-smelling fluid comes out the shower head before metal rods come out of slots in the wall and massage the soap into my back. Wherever this is, I want to stay here.
After one of the best showers in the time of being a shadowhunter, I head out to the closet and see what there is to where. I know that Sebastian has a very stylish and expensive taste but why bother shopping around for bargains when money is no barrier. I open the cupboard and see it to be flooding with designer tags and beautiful pieces of fashion. Silk, cotton, satin, you name it, it's there. I pick out something less ostentatious. A pink, strapless, tight dress that falls to my mid-thigh and hugs my curves. I pair it with black strappy sandals. I hope that Sebastian likes it. I walk out the door of the bedroom only to realise that I have no idea where anything is in this place. Luckily, Sebastian walks out of the room across from mine at the same time I do.
"Sebastian! I love you!" I run up and hug him like there is no tomorrow. I kiss him hard. It feels like I haven't seen him in ages. I guess I haven't but it still doesn't seem right. While my lips are on his, something in the pit of my stomach feels wrong. Like I shouldn't be doing this. I push the thought to the back of my mind and pull away from Sebastian. He has the biggest grin on his face. Not a crooked smile or anything. One of those goofy I-am-so-happy-and-surprised-right-now smiles. He still manages to pull it off as hot though.
"Well, that was fun. Finally woke up did you?" he smiles.
"Yep, but I need you to fill me in on exactly what's happening since I have absolutely no idea."
"Sure, let's talk over some coffee."
We walk down glass stairs into a modern downstairs. The house is huge. Sebastian tells me it is three story and cannot be seen by mundanes and only very skilled shadowhunters can find it.
"Alright, so were are in Ireland at the moment. I am hoping that you will be able to help me with my huge idea and make it a reality. I want to create an army. An army that will take down the Clave and purify this race once more." He says this with so much compassion that I can hardly deny him. For some reason, though, agreeing with Sebastian and his plan seems wrong and completely stupid.
"Okay, but only if you explain to me exactly what we need to do and how and when and all that."
That when the door comes crashing down and in come Jace, Isabelle, Alec and Simon.
