Clary And Jace Novels & Stories

I returned their smiles. “Nyx, Jade this is Kacie and her mate Viktor.” Jade’s eyes flashed with irritation but it was gone as fast as I’d seen it. “Their Beta, Jake, and their Gamma, Jamie,” Clara said. Jake and Jamie nodded to them, while Viktor, remained impassive. Clara’s sister’s gaze trailed over them as they were introduced. “Now that everyone knows each other, I’d like to address your question, Alpha,” Clara started, “I’m here to train Kacie.”

Instead, his claws scratched my father's chest. “You weak, incompetent wolf”. He continues in anger, “You’ll pay dearly for this deception. This means war.” He said, walking away with other Lycans in attendance. I stood still on the altar, lost in confusion, not knowing what to think. ‘Has he rejected me? Is the allegiance still happening? Is the wedding cancelled?’ Those thoughts ran through my mind all at once whilestill in shock. I wasn’t aware when the crowd had dispersed.

Jade pursed her lips at the last sentence. "What guy?" Cassidy stood beside her like a nursery student being punished. "Mr Welland." Alexa whispered back. "You have been going out on dates behind my back?" Cassidy whispered with wide eyes. "He's nice." Alexa said. "Mom, we see ready to go to school." Jace pulled his bag, annoyingly from the table and walked towards Alexa. "But you are not done with breakfast yet." Alexa pointed out. "I'm not hungry any more." He said. "Your ha-"

Chapter 45: Aria Returns Jace's Pov I should have known the night wouldn’t stay calm for long. Things had settled into something easy after a while. Nyra stayed close, not in a way that felt forced, but in a way that made everything around us feel a little more grounded. We talked, moved through the crowd, and for once, I wasn’t thinking about anything outside that moment. That should have been a warning. “Jace.” I didn’t need to turn to know who it was.

“You’re full of surprises, Lisa. We all thought if you were going to tie yourself to a Davenport, it would be Dominic. He’s… well, he’s the one we know.” Jace shifted beside me, his jaw tightening. He hated this kind of scrutiny just the same way I did. The next person that repeated the same words, I tilted my chin up and with a steady voice said, “Dominic may be the Davenport you all know, but Jace is the one I love. I don’t need him to be known or validated by anyone before saying YES to him.” That shut them up. A beat of silence passed before Mr. Holloway forced a smile. “Well, then, to new alliances.” He raised his glass.

And then the doors slam open. Gasps ripple through the crowd. Heads turn and my blood runs cold. Jace. He stumbles in, leather jacket hanging off one shoulder, a bottle of wine in his hand. His hair is messy, his eyes wild, and the smirk on his face screams trouble. “Congratulations!” His voice is loud and mocking, filling the entire hall. He raises the bottle like it’s a toast. “To the lovely couple. May your marriage be blessed with—” he sways on his feet, laughing bitterly, “—long, long years of happiness.”

"The Golden Claw pack is ours now. It's time we take what's rightfully ours." Alex grinned, his eyes gleaming with excitement. We spent the night together, celebrating our victory, our love for each other burning bright. I knew Cane would be busy with Ava, and Jake would be with his future bride, but I didn't care. I had Alex, and together, we would bring down the Golden Claw pack and claim it as our own. As dawn broke, I knew it was time to return home. I hurriedly got dressed, not wanting to be missed. I made my way back to the pack, my heart racing with excitement.

Ivy finally cracked it open, leaving only a sliver of space. "Nina..." Her face was flustered, peeking out with disheveled hair. "Move!" I shoved her aside. Behind her, Blake was buttoning up his shirt. On the floor lay a glaringly red lace thong. "Nina, you... you’re back again," Ivy stammered, her usual elegance and composure completely gone. Blake looked up, staring at me in shock. My body trembled slightly as I fought back tears. "Nina... it’s not what you think. It was just... an accident," Blake said, stepping toward me, trying to calm me down.

Clara stared at Lucas's blood that was starting to soak his navy blue shirt—leaving a vivid red stain. "That's okay. I'll be fine as long as I know you... are not afraid to see me die in front of you, but you're afraid to lose me." Clara shook her head—trying to find the words to deny Lucas. But something unexpected happened. Lucas gently pulled his hand and made her land on his lap—facing his hazel eyes, which made Clara remember their meeting on her campus a few months ago. Those hazel eyes were what made her recognize him...

Hitting the glass hard on the table. “Fine, we are with you. We just need to keep Crissy out of all of this. She can’t be pulled into our war. She already knows what we are. We can’t allow her to find out there are more. Who knows what Zack will do to her.” Michael downs his drink and slams his glass in front of me, gesturing for another drink.
