Lilith (to Jace): For thousands of years, I was unable to bear a child... but then Valentine came to me and he asked for my blood for his unborn son. But I knew... that my boy would be far too powerful for a mere Shadowhunter to raise. So he eventually sent him to me... and I loved him with all my heart. And I never knew if he loved me back, until you killed him... and he called for me with his final breath.
