Chapter 17

When I was going out of the hotel Clary explained to me what had happened, I can't heal Luke, because I don't have healing powers. But i can help them find the materials for Magnus to concoct a potion that can heal Luke. Luke is member of a werewolf pack here, and before he became a werewolf, he was a shadow hunter, but his sworn brother Valentine betrayed him thinking he stole his wife, Clary's mother. Valentine left him inside a rampaging werewolf pact, but Luke didn't die. He survived the attack, but became a werewolf. Luke was a strong werewolf. But he is still a beta, so an alphas bite is poisonous to him. Before Clary called me, Clary, Alec, Jace, and Isabelle were attacked by werewolves. Luke challenged his previous alpha in a traditional werewolf duel. From the two duellists only 1 will walk away alive as the alpha of the pack. He won, but now he was dying from the bite of an alpha, he may have become an alpha now, but the power of an alpha only activates when the pact will accept him as their alpha. The only way he can survive is if a strong warlock concoct a special potion.

<Dany take 20 vampires with you and find me these ingredients. And when you do take them to Magnus Bane's apartment. And be quick about it too,>

Dany was a elite vampire who was a receptionist. Ex special forces, when he was in a skirmish with terrorists he lost his vision, Cain offered him his vision back in exchange for his loyalty.

<Yes boss.>

All my elite vampires and vampires who work at the hotel wear a special time of clothes. A classy suit, classy shoes, and a mask covering the whole head of a person. When mundanes ask why all of my employees dress like that, i simply answer that it's so their personal life isn't threatened by workings at our hotel. I transformed into bats and started flying to Magnus's house. When I get there I see Luke laying on the couch and Magnus doin his best to keep him alive with magic. Clary was sitting near Luke looking stressed and uneasy, but I couldn't see Jace or Simon with them. Clary looked panicked when hundreds of bats were flying towards the balcony, she pulled out her sword but Magnus stopped her.

<That's Dante, don't attack him.>

I transformed back into my human/vampire form in front of her.

<Hey Clary, I got here as fast as I could.>

I warmly smiled at her, but instead of speaking to me, she came close to me and hugged me while she was crying.

<Clary, I know this may seem like a grim situation but it's not, I already sent 21 vampires to find the materials, in 10 minutes at most they will be here.>

I hugged her tighter then lead her inside, near Magnus. Who was smiling at me.

<Oh, I wasn't informed that the strongest vampire had a soft spot for a shadow hunter, and Valentine's daughter no less.>

Magnus spoke teasingly while I didn't react at all and just sat at the couch opposite of him.

<How long can you keep him alive Magnus?>

He looked a little troubled.

<At most an hour.>

I sighed with relief.

<Thank god. Thank you Magnus, for all you have done for me and Clary. I had already sent over 20 vampire to find the materials and bring them to me. They will be here in 5 to 10 minutes tops.>

While we were waiting for ether Jace and Simon or my vampires to arrive I was talking to Clary.

<Clary, I know things must look tough for you, but believe me when I am saying this, it's not as bad as you think. Your a shadow hunter, you can and will be able to have a "normal" life, but many mundanes aren't as lucky. Some of my clan were abandoned when they were turned and they ended up killing their family or partners. You can have your mother back, they can't. What I am trying to say is that you are a strong girl, I know you will get through this and I will be with you every time you need me. I love you Clarissa Fairchild, and I would do anything for you, you just need to ask.>

She smiled a little and gave me a kiss. Not the lustful kind, but the short and sweet kind.

<If you two lovebirds are done, there's someone at the door and I can't go there right now so one of you needs to go.>

I smiled at Clary and sped to the door.

<Who is there?>

<It's me Alec, Magnus needed me for drawing energy or something to save the cop.>

I opened the door and looked at Alec.

<You hurt Magnus, and I will break you.>

He looked confused.

<Oh come on, Magnus is totally into you, he flirts with you and seems to care for you.>

He looked happy? But also conflicted.

<Please don't tell Magnus what you just said to me. I also am attracted to him, but I am a shadow hunter and the future head of the institute here, I can't be seen dating a downwolder.>

He looked sad, not being able to be yourself because of peer pressure and having to be a heir to a famous family.

<Sure?>

I didn't want to get involved in their relationship. In the end they end up together and I don't want to change that. After Alec left the door bell ringed again, but this time it was my vampires and Dany.

<Do you have all the thing I asked for?>

He took a box from one of the vampires behind him and gave it to me.

<The materials are enough to make 5 positions.>

I thank Dany and the others and sent them back to the hotel. I came back and gave the box to Magnus.

<Here are the materials.>

He took the box opened it and sighed with relief,

<This will be enough.>

I turned and saw that there wasn't any space for me to seat because on one of them Luke was laying motionless, and on the other Clary and Alec are sitting.

<Clary can you stand up for a moment.>

When she stood up looking confused I sped behind her sat down and pulled clary on my lap. I could have stayed standing or find another seat to sit, but this way I will be closer to Clary.

<Clary? How about we go on a date tomorrow? We can talk and spend more time with each other. This time no lying or not telling the whole truth.>

She looked happy I asked her.

<Sure, but I expect an explanation and a great place for us to eat, or for me to eat while you drink blood?>

I smiled at her.

<Look Clary. Me being a vampire doesn't change who I am or how I feel about you, you will always be the kind and loving clary fray. You being a shadow hunter or me being a vampire will not change anything between us.>

While me and Clary were talking and flirting Alec looked happy for us but underneath I could feel his sadness. He loved Jace but Jace was straight, now he is attracted to someone but the person he is attracted to is a warlock which his family and the clave will disapprove of. He wants to make his family proud, but that also doesn't let him be himself. While Alec was thinking, me and Clary flirting and talking, Magnus made the potion for Luke and fed it to him.

<Luke will be all right, I expect him to wake up in half an hour.>

When Magnus put Luke inside a guest room to rest. Jace came inside and shouted he had the ingredients, but Magnus quickly explained to him that it wasn't needed now. While we were talking Luke woke up and requested for clary to meet him alone, I saw that as my sign to leave an left in my bat form. While I was flying I suddenly remembered that I needed to get the cup, I sped to the police station got inside quietly found the table of Luke and started searching for the card where Clary's mother hid the mortal cup at with her special powers. Her mother hid the cup inside the picture because only clary and her can get the cup out of the card. I quickly found out where he was hiding Clary's mothers stuff and found the card. The card looked like the old church cups that were covered with gold and diamonds. Now with my hand on the cup Valentine will never be able to make more shadow hunters. I put the card away and transformed into my bat form, while flying towards my penthouse I enjoyed the view of the city in the night.
