Summary
“A demon.” Lily repeats blinking at him.
It's insane. It’s Impossible. But….
There’s no logical explanation for the strange things she has seen over the past few days. She chews on her lip puzzling it over. At first she had thought that the only logical conclusion to what she had seen in the Pandemonium club could only be a drug induced hallucination but now….. now she wasn’t so sure. Could James be telling the truth? Were demons a real thing? She certainly couldn’t come up with another explanation. Lily puzzles over it, her head swimming as she tries to make sense of everything. She can no longer distinguish reality from the strange dreams she’s been having. Dreams about angels and demons.
Finally she looks up and finds brown eyes already watching her. “Okay…. You’re going to need to explain this to me.”OR

Summary
"I’ve been possessed, Reggie has been possessed, Julie was brought back to life and possessed and the Clave didn’t think to stop by. Lilith was walking around and they were just calling us in to talk," Luke said.
“They wouldn’t show up just because we have more demons than usual…” Flynn trailed off.
“Exactly,” he said, gesturing at her.
“We’re not-” Julie sighed, a hand going through her hair as she paced around the room. She’d barely woken up and already her whole day was going off the rails. Considering how her life had been lately it wasn’t exactly shocking. But still… “We’re not asking the right question.”
“What do you mean?” Flynn asked.
“If there is a warlock involved here they summoned Asmodeus, they’ve been summoning demons because they know they’ll come for me,” she said, turning to look at them. “They know. And the only other person who knows is Caleb. What we should be asking here is-”
“-how is Caleb talking to the outside world,” Flynn finished for her.
“Yes,” she said. “Because the Clave suddenly taking residence here at the same time Caleb decided to blackmail us is way too big of a coincidence.”

Summary
When Alec came back from Alicante, life had seemed to finally be looking up for him. No longer "Acting" Head of the Institute, all of his hard work had finally paid off. He was the youngest official, fully-vested Institute Head in the past 150 years. Something he'd worked damn hard to achieve.
So of course he should've expected for something to happen to change that.
With the introduction of Clary Fray into their lives, and all the chaos she brought with her, Alec came home to an Institute in upheaval. Unsanctioned missions, a search for the Cup, and Valentine's daughter running free. And his very first steps towards trying to fix it all - reaching out to the High Warlock they'd all managed to use for help somehow without paying him - ends with a whole lot more trouble than Clary could've ever brought him.
Alec goes on a journey that starts with pain and ends with a strange bond he never wanted, a husband he never thought he could have, and the chance to finally affect some real changes in the Shadow World.
That is, if they can all survive long enough to see it happen.

MIND THE TAGS.
The woman joined him in front of the cage, reading from a clipboard hanging on the front. “Picked up about a year ago during a raid. They decided to bring it back instead of kill it thinking the more human appearance might be useful. Mid-level in power but intelligent. They’ve put it through some training and it seemed to do well enough.” She paused, humming as she read further. “Got a mouth on it though. Seems to be one of the only downsides.”

Summary
It’s curious how it is always said that some angels ‘fell’ from Heaven, yet no one ever stops to wonder at what that means. They weren’t thrown out, weren’t sent away, they Fell… Alec is in prime position to understand the difference. There are times when he cannot help but feel that he’s still falling; and he has no idea who he’ll be when he lands.
(Or, the one where betrayal has consequences!)

Summary
Maryse Lightwood estaba molesta, más que molesta estaba furiosa y decepcionada. Lydia había sido muy clara con su llamada, sus hijos, Isabelle e Jace junto con un grupo de subterráneos y Clarissa Fairchild habían realizado una emboscada para liberar al seelie Meliorn de la custodia de la clave. Y como si eso no fuera suficiente habían forzado la caja fuerte de Alec para robar la Copa Mortal.
Todo era un desastre.
Alec tendría que irse del instituto para estar a salvo de la Clave. Por que el ángel la condenaría si dejaba que su hijo sea castigado por eso.
– ¿De qué estás hablando? Alec está bien – dijo Jace.
– No, Jace. Alec no está bien. Alec será transferido a otro instituto como castigo por no entregar la Copa Mortal en cuanto la encontraron – dijo por fin Maryse viendo como sus hijos palidecían.

Summary
ALTERED CANON
MALECValentine Morgenstern is gone. But the two halves of the Shadow World are still starkly divided, full of prejudice and violence on both sides. Clave struggles to rule with an iron fist. But behind the powerful surface a great divide grows and a centuries old foundation of order shudders, about to collapse. Most of the remaining Downworlders hide. Many of them are bitter from the terrible losses they’ve suffered and wait for a chance to seek revenge.
The war against Circle and Valentine ended with a great personal cost to Magnus Bane. Since then he’s done everything in his considerable power to avoid Shadowhunters. He lives solely for protecting his remaining people.
Alec Lightwood’s most shameful secret coming out is the day the life as he’s known it ends. Deruned, exiled and hunted by Downworlders who despise his parents, he struggles to survive. Then an encounter with a warlock child named Madzie changes everything.
Prejudices are contemplated. Secrets are revealed. Loyalties are tested. And nothing is the same for the two men who were supposed to be enemies.ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF CHAPTERS MAY CHANGE
