CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONE — WE MEET AGAIN!

Chapter 81.WE MEET AGAIN! Clary's POV.“We need to hurry.” I said, my voice reflecting the urgency of the situation. “We don't have time to waste.” “Just give me a few minutes.” Mrs Johnson said, folding the paper.As I stood by the door with a hand on the knob, I felt my body vibrating to the thump of my heart. Perhaps, if she knew what was at stake, then she wouldn't bother to return the paper from wherever she took it. Besides, she mentioned earlier that she put a spell around the room, couldn't she just do the same so that no one would come in? Why try to clear the table? Perhaps, she had no idea that time was against us because explain to me how Hayley was at The Horizon? How did she even learn of the place to begin with? It just didn't make any sense. If anything, we'd… no I'd to get to her before Eric finds out, else things could really go from bad to worse.“All done, can we go now?” she said, standing behind me.I looked past her. Trust me when I say that if anyone had w

CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO — I DIDN'T COME TO FIGHT.

Chapter 82.I DIDN'T COME TO FIGHT.Clary's POV.Wait… what? Sister? I swept my eyes up and down the body of the man standing in front of me, and then turned to Mrs Johnson.“Don't give me that look.” she said, turning her face away. “We all have some past that we don't want to talk about.” Yeah. I get that, but this isn't that kind of past that you try to put behind you. Besides, all it would have taken was just a call to the man who'd just introduced himself as her brother, and Hayley would have returned home.“Why are you here, Maya?” he asked, walking towards the refectory table close to the window. “Is this what I think it is?” “Don't get your hopes high, Trevor.” she said, with an edge to her voice. “I haven't come to pick up the kind of life that you're living. I dropped that life years ago, and I don't plan on returning to it.” “Is that so?” Trevor asked, a hand on the headrest of the chair tucked in the refectory table. “In that case, then why are you here?” He pulled out

CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE — NOT ANYONE, BUT YOURSELF!

Chapter 83.NOT ANYONE, BUT YOURSELF!Clary's POV.“I told you not to look for me, didn't I?” Hayley asked, her voice as hard as steel. “What are you doing here? Why wouldn't you just listen to me?” “You are about to make a wrong decision.” I said, in a soft voice. “I can't allow you to do that.” “Are you kidding?” she scoffed, folding her arms across her chest as she leaned back in her chair. “Who are you to lecture me on the decision I'm about to make? If it's a right or wrong decision, let me be the judge of that.” She pushed her chair backward, and got on her feet. Perhaps, that was her way of saying that she was done with the conversation. But I wasn't. I mean, we'd barely spoken for a little over ten minutes, and she wants to end the conversation already? I barely managed to talk her into coming down, because she was ready to climb up that stairs again and return to whatever room it was that she crawled out from. In the meantime, I turned my face to the side and looked at M

CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR — SOMETHING IS COMING.

Chapter 84.SOMETHING IS COMING.Clary's POV.While walking with Mrs Johnson, I glanced over my shoulder again. I couldn't tell how many times I'd done that, but I just wanted to be sure that Hayley was still coming behind us. For a moment, her footsteps went silent as if she suddenly changed her mind again. I couldn't say exactly what made her change her mind to leave with us, but I could only hope that it was enough reason for her not to return. Meanwhile, she was right behind us. “You want to have a word with her?” Mrs Johnson's voice cut through my thoughts.“Pardon?” the word jolted out of my mouth.“Do you want to have a conversation with her?” she reiterated, as we walked across the road, to where she parked her car.“No, I don't think it's the best time to do so.” I said, with a brief smile. “If anything, I believe she needs some time alone. She must have been through a lot these past few hours.” “You think so?” she stopped walking as we got to the spot where her car was pa

CHAPTER EIGHTY-FIVE — AN EMERGENCY.

Chapter 85.AN EMERGENCY. .Clary's POV.“You are still here?” I asked, narrowing my gaze at the words. “I thought…” “You thought I wouldn't be here?” Gracie righted herself from the couch, and raised a brow. “Well, I'm still here. Is there anything wrong with that?” There was absolutely nothing wrong with her deciding to wait for me. If anything, it just showed how much she cared. However, I wasn't just thinking that I would still find her with Greg when I returned. It seemed like their friendship had grown deeper than I thought in just a few hours together. “Uh? No. No, there's nothing wrong.” I stuttered, shaking my head. “If anything, I'm glad that you decided to wait for me.” “Well, that's all thanks to Greg.” she said, with a smile. “He kept me company all the while.” “Thank you.” I said, with a brief smile. “You are welcome.” he said, tipping off an invisible hat. While we were still talking, Mrs Johnson walked into her room. I expected that much from her; she needed al

CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX — A MOMENT OF ANGER.

Chapter 86.A MOMENT OF ANGER.Clary's POV.“Thanks Greg.” I said, with a hand on the door of the car, ready to open it.But I paused as if recalling some words that I should have said to him before then. Meanwhile, Gracie and Hayley had gotten down from the car. I couldn't say exactly why Gracie decided to come to my house with me. Although, I tried to talk her out of it, but she insisted. Greg could have driven her down to her home, and with that they could have the conversation that they couldn't while they were still at his place. However, it seemed like she had other things on her mind.“Will she be fine?” I asked, my voice laced with concern. “It seemed quite serious back there.” “Of course, she will.” he said, with a brief smile. “It is just a mild headache, that's all. There's nothing to worry yourself about. Besides, it can be fixed with a spell or two.” Knowing that the situation could be fixed with a spell or two, that was the only reason I wasn't all that scared. But th

CHAPTER EIGHTY-SEVEN — FINDING A QUICK FIX.

Chapter 87.FINDING A QUICK FIX.Clary's POV.I turned my back to Gracie.“It is nothing.” I closed my eyes, and let out a sigh. “I guess you must have seen wrong.” “No, I'm sure I saw something.” she said. “It was… it was a flash. I don't know exactly what it is, but your eyes, they changed for a moment.” “Look, we've had a long day.” I said, turning to face her knowing that my eyes had returned to normal. “I guess your brain is just trying to play some tricks on you. Just go home and rest, and we'll talk tomorrow, alright?” “So this is it?” she scoffed, blinking her eyes in confusion. “You aren't going to tell me what that is? Really? How long do you think you can hide whatever this is from me, huh? A month? Or perhaps two? Say a year?” “You are overreacting now.” I said, using a measured tone. “Like I said, and will keep on saying, there's nothing I'm hiding from you.” “Lies.” she said, her voice as cold as the look in her eyes. “You keep lying to me Clary.” “I can't change t

CHAPTER EIGHTY-EIGHT — WHAT'S BEST FOR THE PACK.

Chapter 88.WHAT'S BEST FOR THE PACK.Clary's POVSeated on the couch, I sighed, and scrubbed my face with my hands.“Are you still thinking about it?” Hayley's voice broke in on my thoughts as she walked towards the sitting room. “You know what I think? I think you're overthinking things here.”She sat right next to me.“I get that you don't want to do this.” she said, in a soft voice. “But no matter how much we look at it, that's the only way to go about this situation. If she opens her mouth to say what she saw, not just you, but the entire supernatural world would be in danger, do you know that?” She narrowed her gaze. She didn't need to remind me of that. However, asking Mrs Johnson to erase her memory just didn't sound right. Was it the only option we had? Maybe. But then, what if things go south? How possible would it be to take out just that memory from her head without distorting the other ones? That was my fear. “What if things go wrong?” I said, with a shrug. “I mean, we

CHAPTER EIGHTY-NINE — TIME IS THE ENEMY

Chapter 89.TIME IS THE ENEMY.Clary's POV.“Mrs Johnson, are you in?” I knocked on the door of her office. “Mrs Johnson?” I'd been saying those words for the past ten minutes, and also knocking on the door. But, there'd been no response so far. I sighed. Greg clearly said that she was doing fine last night, what could have happened? I dropped my gaze and stared at the doorknob. It did seem like the only way, but I didn't want to go in unannounced, that was the more reason why I'd been knocking on the door for so long. However, it seemed like I would just have to.In the meantime, I gripped the knob, and turned it open. I walked into her office, and swept my eyes all over the place, but she wasn't in. Turning my head to the side, I noticed an open book on her desk. It seemed like it was something important. Perhaps, time didn't permit her to go through it all else she wouldn't have left it open that way. That particular page must have meant something, or contained some kind of info

CHAPTER NINETY — A SUICIDE MISSION.

Chapter 90.A SUICIDE MISSION.Clary's POV.For a minute, or perhaps, two, the office was dead quiet. It didn't make any sense that there was something wrong with her magic. There were only a few hours between last night, and this morning, but in that space, something had affected her magic? “I don't understand.” I said, shaking my head. “You were doing just fine. Well, fine until you collapsed on the floor. But Greg mentioned that you were okay after he drove me home last night.” “Yes, I was. Or perhaps, I thought that I was.” she said, with a shrug of her shoulder. “But then, the dizziness just wouldn't stop. So, I tried to uhm,” She sighed.“I tried to use my magic, and that was when I realized that there was something wrong with it.” she added. “I have just been trying to figure out what must have gone wrong, but no matter how hard I think, nothing comes to mind.” “Does Greg know about this?” I asked, narrowing my gaze. “Have you told him yet?” “No, I can't do that.” she said
