“It was dark in the alcove, so dark that Jace was only an outline of shadows and gold. His body pinned Clary's to the wall. His hands slid down along her body and reached the end of her dress, drawing it up along her legs. "What are you doing?" She whispered. "Jace?" He looked at her. The peculiar light in the club turned his eyes an array of fractured colors. His smile was wicked. "You can tell me to stop whenever you want," he said. "But you won't.” WantSaidEndsBodyHandsLightEyeDarkColorWallShadowGoldDressesClubsLegsDrawingHis EyesWickedPeculiarJaceOutlinesHis Smile Book:City of Lost Souls Source: City of Lost Souls

“Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed The dear repose for limbs with travel tired; But then begins a journey in my head To work my mind, when body's work's expir'd: For then my thoughts-from far where I abide- Intend a zealous pilgrimage to thee, And keep my drooping eyelids open wide, Looking on darkness which the blind do see: Save that my soul's imaginary sight Presents thy shadow to my sightless view, Which, like a jewel hung in ghastly night, Makes black night beauteous and her old face new. Lo! thus, by day my limbs, by night my mind, For thee, and for myself no quiet find.” MindSoulBodyFacesNightBlackViewsDarknessJourneyBedQuietShadowSightBlindTiredDearWideMy SoulTheeImaginaryHungWearyToilMy ThoughtsJewelsLimbsInsomniaHasteReposePilgrimageGhastlyEyelidsZealous Author:William Shakespeare
