Clary’s POV
I wake up with a strong arm wrapped round me, I untangle myself and head towards the bathroom. I stand in front of the mirror and look at my reflection repeating you are strong over and over again. I do my daily routine and get dressed in my sport’s black bra and black Nike shorts with my black Nike 270 trainers, entering my room Alex is still asleep in bed. I leave the room silently and close the door behind me, I mind link Jace “Jace fancy a run we need to talk about the family secret and figure how we didn’t know about this?” I ask feeling the need to unwind after the past two days. “yes, I will join you we have much to talk about how to address the issue with mom and dad” replied Jace sounding concerned about this whole situation, “meet you down stairs” I replied “on my way” Jace said before I heard his door open. To my surprise it was Alex not Jace who had come down stairs he looked worried till he came rushing up to me and pulled me into a bone crushing hug, I was so surprised as it was still really early for anyone to be up. I pulled out of the hug and looked up to him “what’s the matter” I asked really confused to how he is acting, “I thought I’d lost you again” Alex replied still slight panic in his voice “I’m fine myself and Jace are going for our morning run as we always do and we check the borders” I reply so matter of fact as the soon to be alpha I still have responsibility to my pack. “Well I will come with you as you are mine and I need to be the one to protect you” Alex being over protective and possessive as he said that I was getting annoyed “this is something I have done for the past few years you will not stop me now or change that, this is my pack as I am the soon to be alpha along with Jace” I reply being clear on my actions. The look on Alex's face make me know i have hurt him by what i have said, yesterday was a moment of weakness the bond of a mate came crshing down on me and i forgot why i didn't want a mate. I was Alpha not Luna I don't submit I fight.
“Clary you are my Luna and there will be no more soon to be alpha for you or training for that matter, you will not be fighting in any fight” said Alex becoming angry which you can see from his eyes and get from is aura he was giving off, “you will not be telling me what will and will not be happening in my future I make my rules not you” I say before walking off, I make one last turn to him before he can say anything to me “DON’T YOU DARE FOLLOW ME” I shout at the top of my lungs and run towards the forest. I mind link Jace “meet me at our top-secret location don’t bring Alex with you and hurry up your late” I say to him still annoyed at Alex and need to let some steam off, I head to our own secret gym and start punching a 500lb bag. Punch after punch hitting the bag I was seeing Luke and Alex’s face with each hit, this was making me angrier each time with my final punch being of Luke’s face with that sadistic smile that he had on his face when he kidnapped me. I broke the chine on the bag which ended my fist starting to bleed, Jace came running in once he smelt my blood with Alex hot on his heels “CLARY WHAT HAPPENED” they both ask at the same time. I turned and looked at my brother “we have a meeting we need to attend to, I will just get cleaned up” I say and walk away completely ignoring Alex walking into the bathroom I have some clean sport clothes I get the first aid kit out as the door opened and closed again. Just thinking Jace was checking on me and walked back out carried on attending to my hand till I turned around and saw Alex just standing there shacking with black eyes showing his wolf was close to the surfaces, I just stood there without saying anything being scared of what could happen Alex started walking towards me, taking a step back I ended up hitting the counter still no words was exchanged between either of us I couldn’t keep eye contact with him I look at my shoes as if they was more interesting. Some big part of me wants to accept this guy in front of me but the other part keeps reminding me what guys are really like and I should be careful when trusting them apart from my dad, Jace, Chase and Edward those are the only males I trust, it will take a lot to get over everything I have been through I just hope Alex will understand why I will never be able to be his Luna.
