Cassandra Clare: "Mata Will bertemu mata Tessa ketika dia mendekat, ha...

"Mata Will bertemu mata Tessa ketika dia mendekat, hampir tersandung lagi di ujung gaunnya yang sobek. Sejenak, mereka dalam pemahaman yang sempurna. Jem adalah apa yang masih bisa mereka pandangi. Pada topik Jem, mereka berdua galak dan pantang menyerah. Tessa melihat tangan Will mengencang di lengan Jem. "Dia di sini," katanya. Mata Jem terbuka perlahan. Tessa berjuang untuk menjaga agar wajahnya tidak kaget. Murid-muridnya meledak, irisnya cincin perak tipis di sekitar hitam. "Ni shou shang le ma, quin ai de?" Bisiknya."

Will’s eyes met Tessa’s as she came closer, almost tripping again over the torn hem of her gown. For a moment, they were in perfect understanding. Jem was what they could still look each other straight in the eye about. On the topic of Jem, they were both fierce and unyielding. Tessa saw Will’s hand tighten on Jem’s sleeve. “She’s here,” he said. Jem’s eyes opened slowly. Tessa fought to keep the look of shock from her face. His pupils were blown out, his irises a thin ring of silver around the black. “Ni shou shang le ma, quin ai de?” he whispered.
