1 month later

America's P.O.V.

"She is now my America Schreave!" Maxon yelled, holding me up like the cub from The Lion King.

"Maxon!" I giggled, squirming to get down

Slow music started to play.

"My Queen, may I have this dance?" He asked, eyes twinkling

"You may my King." I smiled

We danced all night.

"Now! For the annual dance. The King must dance with his last Elite." The Dj said

Maxon looked like he wanted to protest but it was tradition.

"Go." I smiled

He kissed me and took Kriss.

I saw Maxon whisper something in Kriss's ear. She grinned widely and nodded.

I watched as Maxon led her out to the garden.

"Kris-" Maxon started

"I knew it! Oh I knew it! I knew you loved me!" She smiled, leaning towards him

"Kriss no." Maxon shook his head

I peeked from behind the bush.

"What do you mean?" Kriss's face pouted

"I.. Me and America.... She's pregnant."  Maxon announced

Kriss looked shocked.

"That's why you switched to America. Oh Maxon. You are a gentleman. Don't worry. We'll take custody over them and then we can live our lives together." Kriss smiled

"No Kriss. I made a mistake when I choose you. I was mad at America for-" Maxon cut himself off

"For what?" She asked curiously

"This conversation is over." Maxon said forcefully

"For what." Kriss demanded

"For what what?" I asked, pretending to stroll by

"Hello my dear." Maxon smiled

"Maxon. I am not your dear." I smiled

He came over and kissed me.

"Kriss. Have you met America Schreave?" Maxon asked

I giggled, Maxon had a dark side.

"Listen you two. I'll find out your little secret. And when I do, the public will hate America. Forcing you to marry me." Kriss growled

Maxon put an arm around me.

"My has your stomach grown." He said sweetly to me

I smiled and led him inside.

We walked towards the King's Suite.

Inside I broke down.

"Maxon. Maxon she's going to hurt Melody and Jake." I cried

"Melody and Ja-" Maxon smiled

"What?" I sniffled

"You never told me the gender!" He smiled

"I didn't?" I said, peeking from underneath my lashes

He picked me up, dumped me on the bed and tickled me.

"Maxon! Maxon I can't *laugh* breath." I laughed

A guard barged in. Aspen.

Maxon stopped.

Aspen shook his head.

"America what about re-living the memory? But.... living it more?" Maxon asked, wiggling his eyebrows

"Maxon." I gasped

He smiled brightly

"So. How are the twins?" Aspen asked

"Great. We already have their names! Melody and Jake." I smiled

He smiled back.

Aspen turned back to his post outside the door.

I hurried to my room to change into my nightgown.

20 minutes later I was curled up in bed, Maxon's stomach pressed against my back, his arms around me.
