A couple weeks passed with no news from Raphael or sign of any faeries and, still, Kaelie refused to give them any more answers. Clary and Celine had not left the Institute and the others made sure that they did regular checks around the Institute for any faeries.

Celine and Isabelle were laid on Clarys bed whilst Clary sat on the floor sketching them.

"Please," Isabelle begged. "We can just go out for an hour and get something to eat. Jace and Alec have made sure that there's no faeries in this area."
"Iz…I don't know. It just seems too risky when we don't know where the Seelie Queen is."

"Clary you can't tell me you're not going crazy stuck in this place all day every day."

"Well yeah there is only so many times you can read a codex or sketch out runes but what if something were to happen?" asked Clary.

"Come on, 1 hour. We can go get some lunch at Takis?"

Clary hesitated briefly. "No, Iz we can't. I may be losing my mind in here but I'm not about to potentially risk my daughters life. Now stop moving so I can draw you."

"Fine. I get it."

Suddenly Clarys phone began to ring. She answered and found that it was Luke.

"Hey, what's up?" She answered.

"Hey Clary. I was just wondering if you knew where Maryse is? I've been trying to get hold of her."

Clary flinched at several loud banging noises in the background.

"Umm…she went to Idris this morning with Robert. They had some sort of meeting with Gia."

Luke let out a long sigh that was cut short by another loud bang.

"Luke," Clary asked. "Whats going on?"

Isabelle sat up on the bed, bringing Celine with her and had a look of worry on her face.

"You don't need to be worried but we tried asking Kaelie a couple more questions and she flipped. She won't stop banging on the cell door and screaming. We can't keep her here anymore but she's a danger to herself and others so it's not like we can just release her. Jocelyn was stood with Beth near the bars and Kaelie tried to attack them. Jocelyn was a bit shaken so I sent her and Beth home."

"Oh…I feel awful. This is my fault. I got her into this trouble."

"No it's not your fault Clary. Kaelie chose to help you and if she hadn't of then you and Cece might not be here right now." Several screams came from down Lukes end.

"Look Clary I need to go but if you see or hear from Maryse or Robert then tell them to call me as soon as they can."

With that Luke hung up.

"What's going on?" Asked Isabelle.

Clary was oblivious to her, deep in thought. She was broke out of her trance by Isabelle shoving her.

"Oh uh I'm sorry. It's Kaelie. She's gone crazy to put it lightly. Iz I need to go see Luke but I can't take Cece with me. Will you please look after her?"

"Yeah of course, just keep me updated on whats going."

Clary grabbed her stele, kissed Cece and then left to find Luke.

When Clary arrived it didn't take her long to find Luke. He was stood with Jordan and several other wolves guarding Kaelies cell. Jordan was the first to see Clary.

"Clary? What are you doing here?" He asked.

The others turned to look at her and Luke gave her a worried look.

"I wanted to see Kaelie-" Luke began to protest but Clary cut him off. "-no I feel bad. And I think she may talk to me or at least listen to what I have to say."

"Clary," protested Jordan. "She's dangerous. She's only just calmed down. Look." The wolves moved to reveal the cell behind them.

Kaelie sat in one corner rocking with blood covering her clenched fists.

"Please just let me talk to her alone. I might be able to help."

Another wolf piped up. "Luke, let her try. We've got nothing else."

Luke looked at Clary thoughtfully for a second then pointed down the corridor.

"We'll be right round that corner there," he started. "You need us you shout and we'll come running." He placed a key in Clarys hand and then gestured for the rest of the pack to follow him.

Clary walked slowly towards Kaelies cell and unlocked the door, quickly slipping inside and locking it behind her.

"Kailie?... Kaelie its Clary…" Kaelie slowly lifted her head from where it was hidden. It couldn't have been possible but her face looked more gaunt than it previously had been. Tear tracks were visible on her face.

"I'm tired."

Clary came closer crouching down to Kaelies level.

"I know but you're safe here. The Seelie Queen can't hurt you and the people out there are only trying to help."

Kaelie scurried forward.

"No, no, no," she said gradually getting louder. "No she always hurts, always there…what if she hurts him? No no no."

Kaelie began to clench her fists again and Clary gently took her hands.

"Who Kaelie? Who is she hurting? Who is 'him'?" Asked Clary.

Kaelie broke down sobbing but between her sobs Clary heard the name Alden.

"Alden? Is that who? Who is Alden, Kaelie?" Clarys questions were only met with more wails.

Suddenly, but gently, Clary took Kaelies face in her hands, forcing Kaelie to look at her.

"Listen to me Kaelie," Clary said which quietened Kaelies cries. "I can try and help you but first you have to tell me everything."

Kaelie closed her eyes and a single tear fell.

"I don't remember and its driving me crazy. All these emotions. All these images and I don't remember them."

"Wait what do you mean you don't remember? But you remembered helping me."

"I don't remember anything after that. My head…my head Clary…I have so many thoughts that don't make sense…I…I don't understand and it hurts." Kaelie grabbed her head and moaned. "The Seelie Queen broke me Clary."
