Days after the ascension of the new Polis Queen, Clarke, and her sister Lexa will make a discovery that will change the entire kingdom forever. A massacre of an entire grounder village by the member of the coalition, Skaikru. After a violent fight w...
Bellamy arrived at the camp carrying me, I wasn't strong enough to wake up even if I was trying to. He walked through the huge torches of the entry and immediately a dozen of soldiers came to him pointing their spears to his face. But they all went back when they saw me, I heard some whispers "It's the queen ... is she dead ..." some of them even bowed but they quickly came to their senses.
"Where ste heda, go ge her!" One of them said, then I felt that someone took me out of Bellamy's arms, one of the soldiers grabbed me. Bellamy didn't say anything and let me go. But while he was looking around him he saw the soldier who attacked us. It was Aspen. He ran to him, yelling:
"You! You did this! You're the reason why she's unconscious." He tried to punch him but some other guards pushed him back and handcuffed him. Bellamy was still yelling, trying to break free. The soldier took the jacket of me and lifted it in front of the whole camp!
"Disha does nou belong kom the kwin, em ste won gon em, Skaikru!" I heard screams and knockings. My head was growing heavy and suddenly I passed out.
I felt wet and uncomfortable, my heart beats were fast. I had trouble breathing. My whole body was shaking when my eyes slowly opened. The sun was burning my face, it was midday.
"Bellamy!" I said panicked.
I knew what was going to happen to him and it was scaring the hell out of me. I looked around me and then I saw Lexa. I came into her arms and held her tight. She hugged me back and then took my head into her hands, I saw a tear flow from her eye.
"Eh ... don't. I'm okay now." I said kindly.
"I should've never let you go alone. I'm sorry. This wasn't a part of the plan, we ..." I removed myself from her hands and stopped her.
"A part of the plan? You knew about this?" I made a pause, processing, and then my look turned dark. "You asked Aspen to do this." Lexa didn't deny and stood up.
"I did what I had to do to keep our people safe that's all." She saw I disagreed so she kept going. "I don't need to justify my actions in front of you Clarke, or anyone. I did what had to be done, what was necessary. So now, who is he?" she asked me firmly.
"I'm not doing this with you." She came closer, still imperturbable so I said angry: "He saved my life! Twice! Trust me with that."
"That's not what I asked Clarke." I couldn't tell her, not yet, I needed to see him first.

I went out of the tent and ended up in the archer camp. The archers bowed with respect when I walked by, I stopped in front of the prisoners tent. Two guards kept watch and stood in front of me when I wanted to come in.
"I came here to see the prisoner."
"Ai badan heda op en nou moun." One of them said. I felt the anger growing inside of me. How dare he?
"Ai laik head en Yu owe Ai respect! Now open de dou!" I saw some archers come behind me their bows pointed on the guards. I was glad that I was supported by some of my people. The two soldiers backed off so I turned back to the archers to thank them.
This tent was used for the prisoners but also for hiding our weapons. The tent was only the outside appearance, inside there was a stairway going underground where the real prison was. I hadn't walked down here for months. It was cold, dark and wet. I was walking carefully, I didn't want to fall again, and then I heard my name. I came closer to a cell and then saw Bellamy. His face was covered by blood and he couldn't stand due to the wounds on his body.
He held himself to the bars and came closer to me. I sat next to him on the other side of the cell, putting my head against the wall. He had trouble breathing and I felt so guilty to see him like this. He came into this place to save my life and I almost took his.
"They think you're the one who did this to me? That's why they ... they've done this to you?" I asked nervous. Bellamy coughed and trying to catch his breath he said:
"Of course not. Everyone here knows what happened, you included. But blaming me ..." He was coughing again. "Blaming me is easier and it gives them another good reason to beat me." I took his hand which was lying on the floor and brought it to me. Bellamy was looking at me so kindly despite everything that has happened that made me dropped a tear.
"Hey ..." he started, wiping away the tear. "None of this is your fault. You were protecting me this whole time and I haven't been able to do the same for you. I'm sorry."
I wanted to talk but he put his hands on mines.

We both stayed quiet for several long minutes, staring at each other. I remembered the impression he made when I saw him for the first time, handsome, brave, savior. I ruined him. The little dimple on his chin had disappeared under the wounds and the blood.
He saw I was about to fall apart again so he put his lips on my hands and kissed them slowly. His dark eyes were reflected into mine and I felt my whole body warming. He put his head back on the wall and drew a shy smile on his face. I smiled back and said:
