America's P.O.V.

I sat at the chairs in the Report set.

"Illea." Gavril said somberly

Even I was surprised. Even at the darkest times Gavril had always started the report with 'Helllllooo Illea!'

"If you don't already know. Our beloved Princess and Prince have been captured by th-" Gavril was cut off

"KRISS ISN'T A PRINCESS!" One person yelled

"WE WANT AMERICA!" Another screamed

"WE NEED A REAL QUEEN!" A third one screamed

They threw rotten food.

The Selected girls screamed and ducked under the Report sidelines . I too ducked under. I watched as they yelled insults at Kriss and how they wanted me, me, as queen.

Guards arrived and the Rebels left. Those were definitely Northern Rebels.

 The Report stopped after Gavril told the viewers that they would give news next time.

King Clarkson turned to me wide-eyed.

"You! You set this up!" He sputtered

"What? Are you crazy? Why would I invite Rebels?" I yelled

Oops. I just yelled at the King and called him crazy.

"What did you call me?" He growled

I couldn't break now.

"Crazy." I said bravely

Everybody gasped

"Put her in the dungeons!" Clarkson yelled

"Clarkson you can't!" Amberly said, quickly panicking 

"Why not?" He snarled

"She...... She..... She is Maxon and Kriss's guest." Amberly searched for a good lie

"I. Don't. Care. When Maxon gets back he can pardon her." Clarkson snarled

He jerked his head at Aspen and Avery.

"You two. Take her to the dungeon." He barked

"Sir, are you sure th-" Aspen started

"Are you questioning my orders?" Clarkson said, eyeing Aspen

"No Sir." Aspen bowed

"Take her to the dungeons." Clarkson said

"Yes Sir." Avery said, moving towards me

"I want to hear it from him." Clarkson said, pointing to Aspen

"Yes Sir." Aspen said

"Good. Now go." Clarkson said

"Clarkson please." Amberly pleaded

"Shut up Amberly." He snarled

Amberly let go of his arm in surprise.

"Sorry my dear. Tension." He added quickly.

She looked at me.

Aspen and Avery took both of my arms and started towards the dungeon.

I was tired. I didn't want to fight. I just wanted Maxon. To be in his strong, safe, arms once more.

Aspen and Avery didn't say a word as we headed to the dungeon.

I cried out when the babies kicked

"Are you ok?" Aspen asked, turning towards me

"Cramp." I managed to mutter
