Mark is called a half-blood in new ‘The Dark Artifices’ snippet

Some fans are already halfway in love with Mark Blackthorn whom we met in City of Heavenly Fire and Cassandra Clare catered to their needs with sharing a snippet about him:
“Loved?” he said in a cold voice. “Do you no longer? Remember, half-blood, I know that you can lie.”
Mark flicked his eyes up. He saw the storm in those eyes, but behind the storm he saw two boys as small as stars in a distant sky, locked together under a blanket.
What a mysterious snippet, right? Who do you think are the two boys? Sound off in the comments!
I’m guessing a former lover of Mark’s.
It could as well be Julian. You know, brotherly love.
Either way I am excited. I already love Mark, he’s a bit like Alec with his protective big-brother-role 🙂
