Stripping the protection wards off the ship was bad enough—it's a strong, strong enchantment, demon-based—but when you fell, I had to put a fast spell on the truck so it wouldn't sink when I lost cons...
If no one in the entire world cared about you, did you really exist at all?
I see that even as the world plunges into darkness and peril, you two stand around discussing your love lives. Teenagers.
We're not dating, Alec said again.Oh? Magnus said. So you're just that friendly with everybody, is that it?
She turned and looked at him. Ducks? she said again.A smile tugged the edge of his mouth. I hate ducks. Don't know why. I just always have.
He hadn't stopped wanting love. He had simply, somehow, stopped looking.
What was the point in crying when there was no one to comfort you? And what was worse, when you couldn't even comfort yourself?
It is the mundanes who look at me and see something they do not understand—a boy who is not quite white and not quite foreign either.Just as I am not human, and not demon either, Tessa said softly.His...
She leaned forward and caught at his hand, pressing it between her own. The touch was like white fire through his veins. He could not feel her skin only the cloth of her gloves, and yet it did not mat...
Ugh, he said after a few swallows. Dead blood. Jace's eyebrows went up. Isn't all blood dead? The longer the animal whose blood I'm drinking has been dead, the worse the blood tastes, Simon explained...

Maryse: I am fighting for a better world for myself and my son.Magnus: I have no interest in the world you want or in your doubteless repellent brat, I might add.
He’s not feeling well, Clary said, catching at Simon’s wrist. We’re going. No, Simon said. No, I — I need to talk to him. To the Inquisitor. Robert reached into his jacket and drew out a crucifix. Cla...
At least Kyle wasn't home. That would be a hard one to explain to his new roomate. Nobody liked a guy who kept blood in the fridge.
But maybe you never really had someone, she thought now. Maybe, no matter how much you loved them, they could slip through your fingers like water, and there was nothing you could do about it.
Simon looked from one of them to the other, and shook his head. When did you two get so buddy-buddy? Last night it was all, ‘I’m the most elite warrior!’ ‘ No, I’m the most elite warrior!’ And today...

Good organization, said Magnus. I knew the man who founded it, back in the 1800s. Woolsey Scot. Respectable old werewolf family.
