America's POV

"Your Majesty, King Maxon would like to speak with you in his office." A servant said to me while keeping their head down. I heartbeat doubled almost instantly because Maxon would usually come find me himself unless something is wrong.

I turned quickly, picked up my dress, and ran in a very unladylike fashion towards his office. Normally I am very polite to all palace staff, for many different reasons. The first is I know what it feels like to be treated like scum, and I would have to make anyone else feel that was. Another reason was from a book I read out of the secret banned book room. It was a book called Goblet of Fire from the series Harry Potter. The quotes was "If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals." I live by that quote.

I didn't even know on Maxon's door as I shoved through, out of breath. I barely registered the guard standing in front of my husband's desk. "What happened!?" I exclaimed. Maxon calmed head nod dismissed the guard, and wrapped his arms around me.

"Relax. Deep breaths. That's the way. I have a good surpise for you." He stated soothingly.

I punched his shoulder kinda hard, and glared at him. "Why did you make me so pointlessly worried!?" I shouted at him.

" I am sorry. I was going to come get you when that guard showed up to tell me Amberly was in the hospital wing with a guard that thrown from his horse."

To say he looked slightly angery would be an understatement. But I am not sure on which part. Either the fact that our only daughter was with a man that Max on hadn't told could be with her. Or the fact that one of Maxon's trained men were thrown off one of the trained horses. But I'm betting on the first one.

"One problem at a time starting with my surprise."

"Well you are going to get to have some time to spend with the selected girls in a couple hours, so that you can point Thane in the right direction." I squealed and danced in a little circle. Maxon chuckled at me, but continued down the list of problems. "I need to go have a chat with a certain guard, and I was wondering if you want to talk to Amberly."

"Oh course I will talk to her. Any other news I should know about."

"We have successfully erased castes 4-8, and we are working on threes." I leaned over and kissed him.

"That's amazing! An-" I started say when someone burst into the room.

"MomcanIpleasetalktodadaloneplease." Thane said in a rushed voice. I knew this was probably important, but when he is king people will need to be able to understand what he is saying, so he needs to slow down when he talks.

"Thane, I can't understand you when you rush your words. Slow down and start over." I said slowly in a chastising voice. He should know better than this.

"Sorry mom." He said before rolling his at me. I turned around and left without saying another word to him. Eye rolling is unacceptable. If I heard later that Maxon didn't yell at him, I will put him in a corner.

I stepped into an empty room to clear my head away from prying eyes. I took a few deep breaths, and i turing to leave when I got tackled by two people. I was disoriented and laied on the floor for a second until I realized that the two people were still fighting. I looked closely at them and saw they were both 30 year old looking guards.

"Hey!" I yelled at them. Their yelling was making this headache that I just got from hitting my head on the ground worse. They both froze suddenly, turning very slowly to where I was partially sitting but trying to stand up.

"My queen! I am so sorry. Are you okay?" One of the guards asked me. I ignored them still trying to stand. It ached everywhere trying to stand. I gave up and said, "Someone go get Maxon." They both started leaving, until I reminded them I said one. The other awkwardly stood as far away from me as possible.

Maxon suddenly burst into the room with my oldest son following him. Thane yelled at the guards while Maxon made me his first priority. "America, are you okay?" He asked crouched down beside me.

"I am fine. I just didn't want either of them to touch me if they were the ones who helped me up." He got my message and helped me up himself.

"Thane take them to my office, and find Officer Leger. Get the back story, and wait for me. Don't leave them alone though." Maxon said. Thane nodded his head in acceptance, and pushed the men out the door.

Maxon picked me up bridal style, and started carrying me to the hospital wing. "I guess we can take out to birds with one stone in this trip, right?" I said jokingly.

"I will not leave you by yourself to go talk to a guard."

"I won't be by myself. Amberly will be with me. Choose who is more important though. Two men who tackled me and didn't even notice, or someone one who our daughter probably has a crush on. You choose. I'll stick with your decision." I leaned in and kissed his cheek. "I love you."

"I love you as well my dear. I will also not force my daughter to be married off to a prince in some country if she loves, she can marry if, but only if I approve. I will find this person and lay the law down while you talk to Amberly." He said.

We made it to the infirmery, and instantly people buzzed around us. A young doctor that I had never met pushed through the mob, and led us to a secluded room. "Hello, I'm Dr.Ives. Britni Ives. What seems to be the problem here?" She asked. I know she didn't address either of us because she didn't know who should answer. Maxon should answer because he is the highest rank and he could answer for me if I was unable to.

I turned my back on the doctor and spoke to Maxon quietly, "Go get Amberly, and do what you need to do. If anything happens someone will come get you."

"You are completely right. See ya soon my dear." He leaned down and kissed my for head before walking out.

"I was tackled by a guard and hit my head." I heard her gasp before taking a step closer.

"Do you have a headache?" She said while gently probing the back of my head. I winced when she touched a tender spot. I muttered ouch under my breath, but she ignored me. "A headache?"

"No. I'm fine." I grumbled. I heard 2 quite taps on the door. Doctor Ives looked at me for confirmation if she should open the door. "Yes."

She open the door and Amberly came in. "Hello mother. Doctor." She said. "Dad said you wanted to talk to me." I could tell she had something on her mind. She is usually not formal with her famy unless the situation calls for it.

"Hello Sweetie. Doctor, am I good to go?" I asked. I don't want someone I just met to hear privet conversations between my daughter and I.

"I think you are. If you get a headache and start feeling nauseated come back, but if it is just a headache take some aspirin. I would advise you relax today and part of tomorrow ." She said. I started nodding, but a pain shot through my head.

"Of course." I stood up off the medical examination bed and started towards the door with Amberly right behind me. "Would you please go tell King Maxon that I will be in our room?" I said to a maid after we exited the room.

"Yes Queen America." She said with a curtsey and left. I didn't say anything to Amberly as we walked becuase people were always listening, and with a bunch of new girls around you have to be careful of what you say.

When we finally got to my bed room, I opened the door and bid her enter. "Take a seat on my bed, and tell me all about this guard." I said in a giddy voice. She instantly blushed, and I knew that was a sign. She is very picky when it comes to boys because Maxon has it drilled into her that they must be worthy of her. So if Maxon approves and she is blushing, we might have a new member of the family.
