Chapter 1; America's POV
It's been two weeks since my incident on the Report. My maids and I have thought of the most amazing plan to win back the King's trust and also Maxon's, but my only downside to this plan is that I have no trust in myself whatsoever. We decided that what we have planned won't be concluding until our next challenge as an Elite.
A knock on my door had pulled me from my train of thought. I had dumbly sat there for a couple of seconds until I released that my maids had disappeared. I stumbled off my bed and I crept to the door, hoping that Maxon was behind it. But sadly enough it was Silvia, and she seemed to be in her usual serious mood with me.
"Lunch will be held in the Woman's Room and Queen Amberley has requested that all the Elite is to stay in the Woman's Room so she can have a word with you all." Silvia told me as she strolled down the hall to the others.
Just as I was about to close the door when a pair of green eyes caught my line of vision. About to walk back in my room to get ready for lunch, when a whisper had come into my ear by Aspen.
"Mer, we have to talk immediately!" Aspen whispered intensely.
"Aspen, stop making this difficult for me I have told you I'm in love with Maxon, and that's it!" my voice was fierce and angry.
I slammed the door as hard as I could in front of Aspen's face, just to show how angry I was. After the incident with Aspen I went towards my bathroom to run a shower and get ready for lunch. Once I was dressed in my emerald green, day dress, which only ever comes up to my knees. Approaching the door I carefully put my ear to the surface and listen if Aspen's there.
Thankfully he wasn't. So I strolled down the corridor and down the stairs towards the Woman's Room. I'm early but I'm not the only one in there, Elise and Celeste are on the couches, in the corner, having a very secretive conversation. I walked over past the couches towards the girls, sitting only a couple of metres away only hearing bits of the conversation.
"Filthy… You're never going to get it… His heart is mine... He'll never love you-"Celeste said menacingly.
As soon as Elise and Celeste finished their conversation, Elise starting running towards the door. Surprisingly when she opens the door, she finds Maxon and Kriss standing in the threshold. Elise then starts bawling and sprints down the corridor.
"Elise!" I screamed out towards her and started running to the door.
Maxon stopped me in my tracks and he started to follow her. I then turned to face Celeste, I could see the fear in her eyes as I approached her. My fury inside of me grew stronger every step I took towards her, then I just exploded.
"Celeste, why do you do this? You've done this to everyone this whole time! You should stop acting like a bitch and a brat whenever you don't get what you want!" my voice was fierce and filled with disgust.
I turned away to go back to my seat but Celeste's hand had grabbed on to the back of my silk dress, and had pulled me down to the ground. My dress had ripped and had caused my back to show and four ragged nail marks started to sting on my back. I then turned back to face her, just as I was about to lift my hand to slap her I thought 'Maxon wouldn't like this' so I matched her enraged gaze with my own.
I heard the creak of the door opening but I couldn't look back to see who it was, then Celeste had me by the arm and digging her cat like claws into my arm. Once those cat-like eyes were on me, she slapped me so hard it left a red hand print on the side of my face. The blow was so hard it forced me to the ground; I shrivelled up in the pain of my face and held my check in pain. My face was burning up just like the fire pit that was held in someone's eyes in the corner by the couches.
"CELESTE! Get out! Now!" the voice was fierce yet familiar and when I looked back I saw Maxon's fiery face that was in the doorway.
