"Gee thanks. That's really kind of you." Myrcella rolled her eyes at him walking away but he grabbed her arm. 

"Now we wouldn't want you to use this around, would we?" Raphael slid his hand down her back to her skirt which made the mundane cough awkwardly but Raphael pulled out the girl's stele. 

"Seriously?" Myrcella groaned, Raphael was one of the few vampires that knew she was a Shadowhunter. The how, was another story on its own. 

"You know what? Kill me." Simon exclaimed out of the blue making the two shoot him confused looks. "What? I can't stand the sexual tension in this room." He added earning a low growl from the vampire. 

"Simon? Shut up." Myrcella shot back, glad she didn't get embarrassed with her private life or she would be blushing right now. She turned back to the vampire in front of her. "Come on Raphael, you know those vampires deserved to die. Now can you let us go?" She asked him seductively , wrapping her arms around his neck.

The vampire closed the gap between them and lowered his head towards her neck, breathing in her scent. He then abruptly turned around and opened the door again.

"Sorry love. We have business to discuss. Now out both of you and don't try anything funny or the mundane will pay for it." He commanded earning a glare from the girl meanwhile Simon was still in shock. 

"What just happened?" The boy asked Myrcella as they got out of the chamber which earned him a second shut up from her. 

They were led into a huge chamber with golden sofas, antiques and paintings. Myrcella quickly sat on the bigger sofa putting her feet up. It had been a long day for her. Simon started looking around annoying the vampire.

"Sit down." Raphael commanded but the mundane just kept on snooping around. "Why won't you sit? Why won't he sit?" He directed the second question to Myrcella as Simon ignored him.

"I don't know. Maybe he didn't complete his obedience training?" Myrcella replied shrugging and then got an idea. "Hey Simon, would you sit down for a Scooby Snack?" She asked the mundane grinning ear to ear. 

"You are hilarious." Simon rolled his eyes with a dry laugh.

Myrcella blocked out the rest of their conversation after that, trying to find a way to make an escape without risking being exposed and getting Simon hurt. She however, laughed out loud when the mundane threw a sword at Raphael, stabbing him in the chest. 

"Okay mundie, count me impressed." She snickered earning a glare from both males in the room. 

Raphael chuckled and took out the sword from his chest while Simon ran and hid behind a pillar. The vampire complained about how he had just gotten the jacket he was wearing when the she-devil Myrcella was hoping to avoid came in, looking annoying as always.

"Won't kill you? Who said that?" Camille Belcourt walked in, swaying her hips slightly. Myrcella groaned and got up quickly to stand in front of Simon. "Raphael." The female vampire rolled her eyes, gesturing towards the half warlock.

"Hey Camille, Pennywise called. He wants his makeup palette back." Myrcella mocked the vampire, hating her guts from the first time she heard about her.  

"Sorry love." Raphael whispered and he grabbed a hold of her arms and moved her out of Camille's way. Myrcella knew not to protest because she couldn't risk getting Simon hurt. 

"Oh, look. How sweet? You're bleeding." Camille stated licking her finger after touching the blood on Simon's forehead. "I am so looking forward to getting to know you." She added with a wicked smile. 

"Stay away from him Camille." Myrcella said with gritted teeth, trying hard to control her eyes so they wouldn't turn green. 

The female vampire just ignored her as Simon started rambling on about how he didn't mean to throw a sword at Raphael. She snapped her fingers pausing him in mid sentence. Myrcella just awkwardly stood next to Raphael as they discussed the whereabouts of the Mortal Cup and her sister. She knew this was a trap for Clary but she couldn't say anything because no one could know she was her older sister. 

"Have you ever tasted Shadowhunter blood?" Camille asked out of the blue making Raphael and Myrcella freeze in their spots. Camille walked closer to Myrcella and pushed the girl's hair back making her flinch. "It's heavenly." The female vampire licked her lips as Myrcella closed her eyes.

Of course Camille knew. She was extremely old and she had a lot of connections. After all she and Magnus used to be lovers but this thought made Myrcella sick to the stomach. The young girl locked eyes with Raphael hoping he wouldn't say anything.

"I wouldn't know. Let's stick to the subject." He replied with a monotone voice and quickly changed the subject to the Clave. 

Camille got out of Myrcella's face and rolled her eyes. The strawberry blonde physically relaxed at this. The two vampires started arguing about the Mortal Cup once again and found out that Camille's plan was to rule the Shadow World with the cup. She then had to stand by as Camille compared Simon to chocolates which actually ruined chocolates for the girl. Thankfully, the female vampire unfroze Simon and he continued to ramble on about the jacket. 

"Now Raphael, I need some alone time with this lovely man." Camille smiled making Myrcella protest and run towards Simon.

"Come on, don't protest." Raphael grabbed her arms the umpteenth time as Myrcella whisper warned Simon not to drink anything but she knew a mundane couldn't do anything against a vampire's encanto. 

Raphael took Myrcella to his quarters and right after he closed the door, he was hit across the face by a very angry Myrcella.

"What the hell Raphael?!" She exclaimed fuming and started pacing back and forth. Raphael rubbed his cheek and raised his hands up in surrender. 

"Look, stop pacing before you burn a hole in the floor and let me explain." He calmly replied which made Myrcella stop and sigh. She knew there was nothing else she could do at the moment. "You know I don't condone Camille's work but there's nothing I can do against her orders I-" He was explaining himself but Myrcella cut him off standing in front of him.

"But there is something you can do Raphael. You don't have to listen to her orders." She sincerely stated hoping the Raphael she knew was still in there. 

"I hate it when you look at me like that." He replied brushing her hair away. "Come on I know what we have to do." He added taking a step back, holding out her stele to her.
