He's a monster they say. Dangerous. Exactly like his criminal father. A ticking time bomb who doesn't understand right from wrong. Too damaged to ever be like the rest of us. None of this is what I see when I look at Jace. He's not only my stepbrother, he's my best friend. Whatever else is happening between us can't seem to slow down, no matter how much we need it to. I look at him and I see love, safety and somewhere I belong. They can say all they want. They can keep trying to pull us apart. But even their best efforts will never stop me from running to him.
