Summary
"Parabatai are a pair of Nephilim warriors who fight together as lifelong partners [...]. Their bond is not only reflected in their closeness and willingness to lay down their lives for one another, but also in oath—one sworn in front of the Council."

Herondale. Jace was a Herondale. Grandson to the Inquisitor, the very woman who’d been making their lives so difficult and who was now staring at Jace as if she’d never seen him before. However, he was also once again in the clutches of Valentine, and for Alec that took precedence over anything else.
