She made an impatient noise. “By the Angel, you don’t know anything about your kid, do you? Do you even really know how vampires are made?””Well, when a mommy vampire and a daddy vampire love...

I learned to play the instruments of war,” he said, “and paint in blood.

Beauty is harsh.

The Herondales are a rather infamous line, as you probably know. Many of them heroes, some of them traitors, so many of them brash, wild creatures consumed by their passions, whether it be love or...

Andwhose fault is that?

There might not be so much of a difference between the side of Light and the side of Dark as you suppose. After all, without the Dark, there is nothing for the light to burn...

A steady flame unwavering & honest

And I believe in the importance of stories.

You are mortal. You age, you die. If that is not hell, pray tell me, what is?

Will-,” Tessa began but it was too late, Church made a yowling noise at being woken, and lashed out with his claws. Will began to swear. Tessa left, unable to hide the slightest of smiles...

I don’t care,” Clary said. “He’d do it for me. Tell me he wouldn’t. If I were missing-” “He’d burn the whole world down till he could dig you out of the ashes. I know,”...

Clary wasn’t sure what she’d expected -exclamations of delight, perhaps a smattering of applause. Instead there was silence, broken only when Jace said, “Somehow, I thought it would be bigger.”Clary looked at the Cup in...

Is this some manly bonding thing I can’t be a part of? Are you getting matching haircuts?

But Jace”, Clary said. “Valentine taught him more than just fighting. He taught him languages, and how to play the piano””That was Jocelyn’s influence.” Sebastian said her name unwillingly, as if he hated the sound...

But God knows, I don’t want anyone but you. I don’t even want to want anyone but you.

He tried not to hug her too hard, even though she was kind of hugging him too hard. In fact, she was pretty much crushing his rib cage. He didn’t mind, though.

And tell them what?” Jace said witheringly. “That invisible people are bothering you? Trust me, little girl, the police aren’t going to arrest someone they can’t see

Come in. And try not to murder any of my guests.” Jace edged into the doorway, sizing up Magnus with his eyes. “Even if one of them spills a drink on my new shoes?””Even then.

Magnus’s eyes went back to Alec. They were gold-green, as unreadable as the eyes of the cat he held on his lap. “Not my favorite topic, Smedley.””Simon”, said Simon. “If I’m going to die for...

Nice, bah. He’s gorgeous.” Magnus gazed dreamily in his direction. “You should leave him here. I could hang hats on him and things.

Demons don’t understand human hearts, not well. They see through a distorted glass and show you what you desire, but warped and wrong. Use that wrongness to push yourself out of the dream. Life is...

When the fey were worried, it was time to panic.

…In Paris she found Magnus, who was living in a garret apartment and paiting, an occupation for which he had no aptitude whatsoever. He let her sleep on a mattress by the window, and in...

Have you fallen in love with the wrong person yet?’Jace said, “Unfortunately, Lady of the Haven, my one true love remains myself.”…”At least,” she said, “you don’t have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland.””Not necessarily....

No one blames her.””That never matters,” said Alec. “Not when you blame yourself.

Jem shook his head. “You bit de Quincey” he said. “You fool. He’s a VAMPIRE””I had no choice” said Will ” He was choking me””I know” Jem said. ” But really Will, AGAIN?

Gideon Lightwood said he was at the Institute in Madrid. What on earth was he doing there?”Faffing about, most likely’, said Will.

He carried a pipe in his left hand, and as he examined Will at his leisure, he exhaled sending a cloud of sweet-smelling, cough-induced smoke. ‘Finally broke down and admitted you’re in love with me,...

Will closed his eyes. He could not hear Jem go, not anymore; he did not want to know the moment when he left and Will was alone, did now want to know when his first...

I always loved you, Will, whatever you did. And now I need you to do for me what I cannot do for myself. For you to be my eyes when I do not have them....

Because the rest of us all are hideous, are we?” Jem inquired, looking amused.

I guess you’re coming as my date now.” Simon shoved the phone into his pocket. “I’m secure enough in my masculinity to accept that,” said Jordan. “We better get you something nice to wear, though,”...

Well I’m not kissing the mundane,” said Jace. “I’d rather stay down here and rot.””Forever?” said Simon. “Forever is an awfully long time.”Jace raised his eyebrows, “I knew it,” he said, “you want to kiss...

You may not remember, but that’s kind of our thing.”With that, he walked away, clearly aware of the admiring glances that followed his every step.

Have you fallen in love with wrong person yet?
