SHADOWHUNTERS

Chapter 44.

[Maryse]
Lucian, I need your help

[Lucian]
Wait, what? You, Maryse Lightwood, need my help? A downworlder?

[Maryse]
Oh shut up before I change my mind

[Lucian]
Fine, what do you need help with? Last time I checked the world wasn't ending and no one of the kids are gone

[Maryse]
Well, you're right about that. This is different though. I need your advise

[Lucian]
Yeah?

[Maryse]
Do you think I'm a bad mother? I mean, I think I'm the best mother that this world ever has seen, but I don't know

[Lucian]
Is there maybe a reason why you're asking me this question? Has something happened with Alec, Max, Jace or Izzy?

[Maryse]
Except the fact that they're all avoiding me, nothing

[Lucian]
Why are they avoiding you?

[Maryse]
I know that I have been unreasonable with them for so many years and when Alec got together with that Warlock, I seriously wanted to strangle him. I wasn't mad at him, I just wanted him to be safe. I know that Magnus makes him happy and for that, I'll be forever thankful

[Lucian]
I can't say that I know how you feel, because I really don't. But what you're going through right now is normal. Your kids are growing up and have started to take responsibility for their own lives. They're not your small babies anymore

[Maryse]
I know, Lucian. I just wish that it didn't felt like they hated me

[Lucian]
Maryse, they don't hate you. No matter what happens, you will always be there mother. If you feel this way, why don't you talk to them? Tell them how you really feel

[Maryse]
Maybe you're right

[Lucian]
And as for Alec, don't worry. If you want him to love and respect you, tell him that you love and respect Magnus

[Maryse]
I will

[Lucian]
Good, my work here is done

[Maryse]
Luke, wait. I know that you're not Clary's real father, but she's lucky to have you in her life

[Lucian]

Hey guys😇 How are you all? I have locked myself up in the schools bathroom because I hate everyone so much🙈 I seriously don't have any hate against Maryse, at least not anymore. She was a total bitch in the beginning but she truly deserves better

I love you all❤️
