"Do you America Singer take Maxon Schreave as your husband?"
I looked at the priest that stood at the side of us. We didn't have nice clothes, just the clothes we had found in the wardrobe. I made eye contact with Maxon and realised that even if I didn't have a dress or the fact that it was only Maxon, the priest and I at our wedding I thought that it was perfect.
"Yes." I answered and smiled at the person infront of me.
"Do you Maxon Schreave take America Singer as your wife?"
The answer came immidiently and the priest told us to kiss.
I wrapped my arms around my husband and kissed him. When we stopped after what seemed like forever Maxon smiled and squeezed my hand.
The whole afternoon we walked around on small roads and in the woods. Just us two talking. Neither Maxon or I wanted to go back to the house because that would mean that we had to go back to reality. But we had to so I stopped walking.
"You know that we have to." I said and Maxon dragged me in for a hug.
"I know." He wisphered and suddenly I felt a tears in my eyes.
Before he could see them I wiped them away and blinked a few times.
"Why are you crying?" Maxon asked and stroke my hair.
"I dont know. Because of everything, I guess."
"I know. What if we stay here for one day more and then we head back to the city?" He suggested.
"We should head back to the city. How much I want to stay here one day more with you it wouldn't be fair to the people. To your people." I said as we started to walk.
"But my father is still alive. We dont know if they even want me as a king." Maxon said and dragged a hand through his hair.
"Yeah, but the rebels have shut down the TV and everything which means that we have the chance to give him a oppertunity to step down." I explained my plan. "Some of the guards is one your side and we can take advantage of the rebels that kidnapped me since they want me to be queen. Then they will see that you are not your father and if they dont see that we get rid of them." I continued and turned towards Maxon.
He nodded slowly understanding.
"Its a plan." He said.
I stroke my hands over the bag that layed in my knee. As we where getting closer to the castle and the city I slowly felt more nervous. So did Maxon.
His hands shaked when he didn't have something to hold on to.
Finally we reached the castle. I didn't know if I should be relifed that we where here safe or if the nightmare started now.
In silent we entered the castle. The guards didn't stop us so either the king had realised that Maxon was his only hope or he wanted to talk to us before he ordered an execution. At least for me. I was the source to all his problems. Even the rebels.
"I figured that you would show up eventually."
I turned around at saw the man we where looking for standing at the top of the stairs. Maxon walked towards the stair but a few of the guards stepped forward in a silent threat.
Maxon stopped and you could feel the tension in the room increase. The few guards that was in the room looked at each other in confusion. They all had seen Maxon grow up and maybe played a few minutes with him.
I turned my attention to the king again but didn't say something. This fight was between Maxon and his father.
"What did you do to mom?" Maxon asked and king Clarkson laughed.
"Oh, you already know. I took care of her like I take care of all the traitors in my kingdom." He answered and looked at his clock.
I could see that he wasn't as cold as he pretended. His eyes where red and he looked like he hadn't slept in a few days.
"I am married now dad." Maxon said as he understood that it wouldn't help to talk about Amberlyn.
King Clarkson looked up in chock but quickly covered his expression with a neutral face.
"It isnt to late to change that. We can fix this. Son."
"No. You know why I came. To see your abdication. To become king." Maxon answered.
The king didn't answer so I walked up to Maxon and grabbed his hand. We both now knew that we would have to accept help from the rebels that wanted him killed.
"Well if you dont give up I have to take help from the guards then." The king yelled and gestured to the guards.
They grabbed my arm before I had a chance to react. But Maxon didn't let go and punched one of them instead. I didn't have a chance against any of them since I was to small and weak. But Maxon wouldn't be able to take down all of them.
"Its okay. You know what to do." I yelled to him as I now was being dragged through the hall.
Maxon was now held by three guards but still tried to fight.
"I love you." He answered before a door closed behind me and he was gone.
