Adoration
The girl with auburn haired with bright green eyes looked up at Jace in wonder on who he was, and if he truly exist. She shivered in the cold, Jace held out his hand for her to take. The girl looked at him with a look that told him many things and he was surprised that she didn't run through the sugar cane fields in fear of him.
Then her hand slid into his rough ones and she smiled up at him brightly even when cold.
"I'm Grace Fairchild," She smiled, and Jace helped her up to her feet.
"Jace." No last name at all, and she accepted his answer full-heartfully
The look upon her face showed no fear or hate, not for him and he wondered if she noticed what he was. It wasn't hard for her to guest. He didn't bother to hid his demon appearance at all.
"What are you doing out here in the cold?" She asked, and he gave her a smile. A smile so innocent from a demon like him.
"I could ask you the same thing."
It had been two days since Clary went shopping with Emma and it had been two days since she last saw her Parabarai, but she knew he was around in the manor somewhere. The staff had told her he been in the library most of the day reading, and Julian had came by her room to drop some books off about all kind of topics including Parabarai for her to read about and the History of Shadowhunters.
She kept her stele Aaetpio close by and she found herself missing Jace. It was hard and confused for her to think so, since all he ever done to her was being a jackass and times between it he show very little kindness to her. Clary sat down on her bed with the book 'Parabarai' over her knees. 'So you want to know about Parabarai' was the named of the book and the author named was Jia Penhallow.
Parabarai is a person that is bonded to a Shadowhunter or a master. In childhood in times of old, the Parabarai were often selected to bond with a shadowhunter and be their partners. The ritual had been updated many times over the century,and when being bonded they must speak the oath while doing so-
Entreat me not to leave thee,
Or return from following after thee—for whither thou goest, I will go,
And where thou lodgest, I will lodge.
Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.
Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried.
The Angel do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.
Time had changed and the oath had been annulled to something much simpler that only a person with Shadowhunter blood may be able to do. The Parabarai to the master must obey their every whim and one to break the bond it's either the master lose it's status, or die. In today's time the master or Shadowhunter must perform the ritual by doing something physical either a kiss or a hug can do to seal the time of new, the angel had allow demons to complete for the parabarai.
One must be careful.
That when a master or Shadowhunter achieve full physically awareness of another, and do some ungodly things to one another including emotional the bond strength will grow, and if the will of the Parabarai love to its master other than the lust they feel do not complete with the seal they will die.
So it's common that the Shadowhunters had tread carefully, and placed a law above else that one must not fall in love with its parabarai it will only bring pain and violence.
The subject kept on going for a few more pages before going deeper into the ritual status and Clary felt her chest ping at the information. Some of her confusion over Parabarai had disappeared somewhat but new questions replaced the old ones making her wonder if anything like this ever happened before, that a parabarai fell in love with it's master and died. Her brain automatically brought an imagine of Jace, and she shook her head violently at that. Why did her brain show her that? She didn't like the fox demon. No, far from that...then why is her heart pounding flatter each time she hear his name?
She sat the book on her bed and walked to the window, and pushed back the curtains. She looked into the yard of her manor. She saw the fountain that she admired two weeks ago when she arrived. It still feel like a deep dream now. She can still remember her life with her father. Clary could faintly remember her mother...and her...demon brother...for most of the day she had kept her mind from that. She kept herself from trying to contact her brother and see where her mother was at.
Clary sighed to herself, and she suddenly feel very lonely. Jace just walked out of the manor and her eyes were glued to him. He walked with a slight limp. He wore a thin white shirt with dark black jeans, something unsual for him. A book tucked under his arm while he walk passed the fountain. His fox ears twitch with each step and Clary found herself taking in a deep breath of air. The urge of going to Jace too strong or her to pass up and demand on why he had locked himself away. She left her bedroom with haste only to stop when she heard a few strange voices in the study. She recorgized one voice, but the other no.
"He's cursed. He have about a good few years left in him if he takes it easy." The voice said, calmly.
"No...Jace is tougher than that...we find away...I know he will." Julian replied hotly.
It was like time had freeze and her heart had stopped moving in her chest.
Cursed?
A few years to live?
Was Jace slowly dying?
Why was he cursed?
"The marks on his shoulder is the color of black and red. The work of a recent fallen angel. I have seen his work about once on a young man named Magnus Bane of London."
"Did he survive?"
"He did. I believe he's staying with that Lightwood boy."
"Then how he survive?"
There was a long pause of silence before the stranger replied in almost a whisper, Clary almost didn't catch it.
"He did forbidden magic to overcome the seal. Tessa said, he used a spell that can change time. He managed to stop his past self from doing whatever it was and prevented the curse to ever take place."
The floor underneath her creak loudly, and the voices stopped. Clary paled, and the study door opened wider revealing Julian who looked at her surprised before smiled at her falsely.
"Hello, master. Having a nice day?" He replied with cool politeness but she knew he know that she was eavesdropping. The stranger exit the door after him.
He smiled at her with much more friendliness.
"I'm glad you're feeling better ." The dog demon bowed his head to her.
Clary smiled nervously at him.
"Much better, but I must ask who you are?"
"I'm Simon Lewis. Demon Doctor," The dog demon replied shortly before turning to Julian.
"I'm afraid I must take my leave, but if you ever need me I'm just a short call away."
When the dog demon left, Julian looked at Clary with a harden look within his eyes.
"This can't leave between us." and with that he left her stunned in the hallway, but all Clary could think of was getting contact with this Magnus Bane.
