Laurenâs parents were both in The Circle, and Valentine also used Kira Ashblue for his experiments. But once Laurenâs parents started to suspect from Valentine intentions, they warned The Clave about it and tried to convince them to end the deaths which would come. The Clave didnât believe them, so Elliot and Kira decided to go to New York, acting as Shadowhunters under the name of the New York Institute. However, when The Circle were over, Kira was already pregnant over Lauren but couldnât let anyone besides Elliot know about it, afraid someone of The Circle would come for them and the baby. Elliot asked for The Clave to keep them working but hide the fact of their daughter. With the permission of the Inquisitor Herondale, the Ashblue lived in Brooklyn with Lauren, giving her a mundane childhood.
Even with the Sign, Lauren never suspected about the creatures she saw would be real. She got a strong friendship with Jordan Silverhood, her neighbourhood, who was the son of her parents' friends. They were Shadowhunters who left Idris and The Clave and decided to live as mundanes. Lauren never knew about this in her childhood. She was surrounded by love, until the day she had ten years old when a demon attacked her and she was saved by her dad. From that day, Lauren discovered she wasnât a simple human, but a Shadowhunter. She didnât have time to say goodbye to Jordan Silverhood since her parents thought it would be for the best if they went to live in the Institute now, so Lauren could be trained to this life and more well prepared for the danger.
In her first day on the Institute, Lauren got lost in the corridors and was found by Alexander Lightwood, the older brother. He returned her to her parents and she meets everyone there. At first, people thought she and Briana werenât meant to be, but then discovered how they could understand each other minds, work together and be better at teamwork almost as good as Jace and Alec. Lauren and Briana were meant to be parabatai.
On the next year, Laurenâs parents died in the mission, where the only remains were their clothes, human blood and demon blood. The rumours would say that the Ashblueâs had made a ritual to summon a demon and had become one. That kind of says made everyone from the Ashblue blood to hide their origins and change their names, except Lauren, who remained alone with the weight of being a Shadowhunter with a cursed family.
In the meanwhile, Lauren also found something new about her. She could know the future or some details from the past that no one had ever told her. The rumours about the curse started again, so the Lightwoods decided it would be time to go to the Silent Brothers, to find out what was the truth about Lauren. She was submitted to the Mortal Sword, but no one still knew how she had that ability. By some research, the Silent Brothers discovered it would be something related to the Clairvoyant and Vision Rune.
Lauren and Briana, by that time, were sent to Idris from some months. There, Lauren meets some of her family relative, who shared hate and pitiful over her surname. That showed her how she didnât have a family besides the Wayland siblings and the Lightwoods. Also, at that time, Lauren meets Rafael Santiago, the leader of the vampire clan in New York and got a crush on him, though never dared to get closer to him or saying something. Briana was the only who understood whats going on with the Ashblue.
The years passed. Lauren remained between the Shadowhunter World and the Mundane World, by attending to St. Xavier School. There, she meets Clary Fray and Simon Lewis, who got somewhat closer to her but not close enough. Lauren never liked some of Simonâs personality, and for so, she was almost away from him, only sharing a good friendship with Clary.
