Quote by Cassandra Clare

“Magnus hesitated. “I don’t know,” he admitted. “We’ve been rushing around getting ready to leave, and I haven’t so much as googled the word Svefnthorn.” “I googled it,” Jace said, to Alec’s surprise. “While we were getting our stuff together.” “You,” said Alec, “googled it.” “Yeah,” said Jace. “It sounded Norse, so I went into the library and looked it up in the Saga Concordances. Like a normal person. That’s googling, right?” “More or less,” said Simon.”

Eldest curses are not just children of Princes of Hell. They’re the oldest living children of those princes. There can only be nine of them alive at any one time, and I know of only two. And I’m talking to one of them and married to the other.”

Did you say the S-word? The R-word?” Alec rolled his eyes. “If you’re asking if I told them about Shinyun and Ragnor, I did.”

“Magnus señaló un tenue grupo de estrellas que titilaban a la derecha. —Ahí está Boyero, el vigilante de las osas, y Corona y Hércules a su lado. —¿Por qué se supone que nombrar las estrellas es romántico? —preguntó Alec con una sonrisa en el rostro—. Mira, esa de ahí es... Dave... el Cazador... y aquella otra es la... Rana, y... el Helicóptero. No me conozco las constelaciones, lo siento.”

“—Equilibrio —contestó Alec sin aliento—. Me mantiene firme sobre el suelo. Magnus inclinó la cabeza y lo besó suavemente sobre la runa, desdibujada hasta ser un rastro casi invisible sobre la fina piel del cuello de Alec. Este inspiró con fuerza. Magnus deslizó la boca sobre la cálida piel hasta llegar a la oreja. —Creo que no está funcionando —le ronroneó. —No quiero que lo haga —murmuró Alec.”
