    Summary

    "Alastair was the only person that she had ever seen with eyes as bitter as her own. She remembered the way that he had looked Before, before his father had died and he had found a home in the arms of Thomas Lightwood. He hid those eyes belong long pianist’s fingers, but she still saw them, saw the pain that they held as well as the anger. The terror that was a necessary condition for the acidity.

    She understood. He had felt like a monster, then, as Grace was."

    Or, after a lifetime of fear and pain, Grace Blackthorn finally finds a kindred spirit.

    Summary

    The house is rotting under them. It groans with each step, breaks with every open door. Jesse thinks of Bluebeard and his wife and of his mother and Grace. Where are the keys? Where are the locked doors? The house feels alive under him, opens its maw to swallow him whole, and Jesse has nowhere to go but in circles.

    He doesn't live but he doesn't die, so he stays in the mouth of it, caught between the teeth.

    Summary

    The first intake of breath hurt - stung like ice, in a body that was newly warm. It seemed to tear at his chest and lungs, he felt he could not do it again, but his body dragged in another breath, and another, and yet another, strung along by the force of living. He got used to the pain.

    Cold air, cold, open air above him. It was dead silent. Jesse Blackthorn finally opened his eyes.


    The unwilling resurrection of one Jesse Blackthorn.

    Summary

    Henry was definitely wrong to assume that there would be any peace between this transition period and the official kickoff of Alex's Congressional campaign, especially given Alex's unhealthy habits of overplanning and overindulging in as much information as possible as quickly as possible. He hadn't properly spent time with Alex since all of this was set into play last week other than quick showers together in the morning and sporadic meetings for late dinners. There was a sharp ache that consumed him with every waking moment that he was deprived of being attached to Alex's side. If this was just considered political pregaming, he didn't know what he would do when this election thing went full force in the months to come.
