Oh, Lord Montgomery, what do you mean to do with me in this bedroom when you have me all alone? An innocent maiden, and unprotected? Is my virtue safe?’I, ah- what?”I know you are a...

Isabelle drifted over, Jace a pace behind her. She was wearing a long black dress with boots and an even longer cutaway coat of soft green velvet, the color of moss. “I can’t believe you...

You shouldn’t do that. Not to your child. You should-carry your own burdens.

Yeah, well, you clearly also couldn’t be bothered to call me and tell me you were shacking up with some dyed-blond wanna-be goth you probably met at Pandemonium. After I spent the past three days...

You’ve never seemed to really need anyone, Clary. You’ve always been so… contained. All you’ve ever needed is your pencils and your imaginary worlds. So many times I’ve had to say things six, seven times...

We can buy you one of those books they have for little kids ‘Timmy Has Two Dads’. Except I don’t think they have one called ‘Timmy Has Two Dads and One of Them Was Evil’....

So you interrupted my date to make fun of me for still living with my parents. Couldn’t you have done that on a night I didn’t have a date? That’s most nights, in case you’re...

History, the way the teachers liked it, was a racetrack, a straight shot from start to finish line; life itself was more of a maze.

I had some feelings,” said Simon.””Do feel free to agonize about it on your own time.

No,” said Simon. “I know we’re not much compared to you, but we don’t kill our friends. We try to save them. If Heaven didn’t want it that way, we ought to have been given...

Isabelle snorted, “All the boys are gay. In this truck, anyway. Well, not you, Simon.””You noticed,” said Simon. “I think of myself as a freewheeling bisexual,” added Magnus. “Please never say those words in front...

Isabelle! he called again. Let down your raven hair. Oh, my God, Clary muttered. There was something in that blood Raphael gave you, wasn’t there? I’m going to kill him. He’s already dead, Simon observed....

and she dumped him too. At least she said she was going to. Tough break, man.

I have a feeling you’re right, Sherwin.”Simon. My name is Simon.

Do you even really know how vampires are made?”Well, when a mommy vampire and a daddy vampire love each other very much…

If you’ve reached this message that means our boy Simon is out partying. But please don’t fight among yourselves. There’s always enough Simon to go around.” There was a muffled yell, some laughter, and then...

Simon,” Isabelle interrupted, “you’re talking like a nerd.”She said it almost fondly, but it freaked Simon out more. “And I don’t know how to be smooth, sexy vampire Simon for you, either!”Isabelle’s perfect mouth curved,...

It was a little sexy, Simon said. He felt much better, having fed, and couldn’t help but poke at Alec a bit. It wasn’t, said Alec. I had some feelings, said Simon.

Simon had never noticed before, but she wore a silver ring on her right hand, with a partner of flames around the band of it, and a carved L in the center. It reminded him...

The door buzzer sounded again. The two boys exchanged a single look before both bolting down the narrow hallway to the door. Jordan got there first. He grabbed for the coatrack that stood by the...

What have you done to my cat?” Magnus demanded… “You drank his blood, didn’t you? You said you weren’t hungry!”Simon was indignant. “I did not drink his blood. He’s fine!” He poked the Chairman in...

Simon snorted. “If you ever meet the man who could take advantage of Isabelle, you’ll have to let me know. I’d like to shake his hand. Or run away from him very fast, I’m not...
