Hodge eventually made his move and stole the Cup for him, in exchange for breaking his Punishment rune.
After taunting Jace and Clary of being unable to kill him, he left through a Portal, leaving them with Jocelyn's still unconscious body and the Cup. He then told Jace that he was his father, and that he had been glamoured as Michael all along. When Valentine tried to use the Cup to control the demons, Clary revealed that the Cup in his hands was fake and glamoured while the real one was still with her.
Once he had it in his hands, he cut his shape-shifting rune and revealed himself as Valentine to Clary and Jace. He then offered to help them look for Jocelyn.ĭuring a battle when they were surrounded by demons, Valentine tricked Clary into handing him the Cup. As Michael, he reconnected with Jace he told Jace that he'd been a prisoner held by Valentine since he seemingly died in front of him. Shortly after the Cup was finally retrieved by Clary and the Clave, Valentine once again took on the form of Michael Wayland, as part of his plan to get the Cup and get close to Jace once more. Valentine ordered his men to continue searching for the Cup, with their biggest lead being Clary, and their spy within the Institute: former Circle member Hodge Starkweather. Valentine shape-shifted into Michael once again. When he found out about Jocelyn's daughter, he told his men to bring her to him. During this time, it became evident that Valentine still loved Jocelyn, in his own way. He ordered his men to bring Jocelyn back unharmed and with the Cup, but Jocelyn drank a potion that put her in a state of deep sleep, preventing him from extracting the location of the Cup from her, frustrating him. It was only that they found a lead when some of his followers saw Clary at a club in New York, and they recognized Jocelyn in her and found that she was alive. He and his men scoured the world for Jocelyn and the Cup. Valentine remained in hiding for almost two decades while continuing to amass his numbers and experiment on Downworlders. Unbeknownst to him, Jocelyn had been pregnant and had given birth to their daughter, whom she named Clarissa and raised in the mundane world-in New York. He arranged to have him sent to the Lightwoods, knowing he would be cared for with them. Apparently, when his enemies began to close in, Valentine once again faked his death as Michael-"dying" right in front of ten-year-old Jace's eyes. This let everyone believe that he'd perished then when, in fact, Valentine took on the identity of Michael Wayland and raised a young boy as Michael's son, telling him that he was Jonathan Christopher Wayland. Valentine then faked his and Jonathan's deaths, setting their home on fire with two bodies in their place. She and Luke plotted together, and, to halt Valentine's plans, Jocelyn took the stolen Mortal Cup and went into hiding. When the child was born, they named him Jonathan Christopher.Įventually, Jocelyn grew tired of trying to help Valentine and his growing hunger for power. He injected himself with both, while he injected his first unborn child with demon blood as well while still in Jocelyn's womb. In his desperation to overpower Downworlders, Valentine began to experiment with Downworlder and demon blood. Though some of his friends and followers were not initially aware, his ultimate goal was the eradication of demons and Downworlders alike from the world. Under his leadership, he and his friends formed the Circle.
Valentine was the husband of Jocelyn Fairchild.
