Clary's POV:

Then sun was steaming through my windows as I blinked the the sleep from my eyes. I carefully rolled onto my side, as to not hurt my whip wounds. I called for Poppy and Maia to help me get ready. While waving to them I think about yesterday maybe the King wasn't so bad. I mean he had seemed nice and a gentleman. Ugh what was happening to me. I scolded myself. He was not nice. He couldn't be nice. Don't let him in. I sighed and made my way to the window. The view was quite different then to the Morgenstern Kingdom. You could see the Lightwood kingdom and before it were gardens of green where men stranded to the grass.

"You called?" I turned to find Poppy and Maia.

"Yup!" They came and helped me change. I heard Poppy gasp. Shit. I had forgotten about the marks.

"Who? Who did this to you?" I heard her say.

"Ummm…" I was unsure if I could tell her.

"It can stay between us. We will help you clean them."

"My Brother, Jonathan."

"Why? Why would he do such a thing?" Maia asked.

"I disobeyed him." I say looking down at the carpet. A knock on the door sent us all out of our silence.

"Yes?" A head popped throug the door.

"Hello, I'm Magnus Bane. The royal doctor."

He stepped fully into the room and the first thing that I said was; "Sparkles?"

"Yes biscuit, I like glitter." I cast an uneasy glance at Poppy.

"Oh Clary, Magnus is great. He is the best downworlder."

"Wait what? The doctor is a downworlder?"

"Yes, do you have a problem with that?" He asked his tone suddenly less cheerful.

"Uh n-no" I stuttered

"Great then, let's look at your foot." His tone became instantly brighter.

It turns out hat is was just a mild sprain so he wrapped it up and gave me an ice pack.

"Are you paying attention to anything I'm saying?" Isabelle asks furious.

"Um no?"

"Uggghhhh" I roll my eyes at my new Best Friend. I haven't seen the king yet. But I'm kind of Glad that I haven't because he gives me mixed feelings. I'm half afraid even though I didn't want to be. And I feel like he is nice but... oh I don't know.

"Ok, tell me what you are thinking about"

"What no I'm not thinking about anything in particular."

"Fine don't tell me." She huffed but I knew that she want actually angry. I had gotten to k ow her quite well in the past few hours. I had gotten to know this whole palace quite well. The only thing I had no idea about was the king.
