Maxon's POV

I inhale and exhale sharply. Oh. My. Gosh.

What am I suppose to say to Kriss? What am I suppose to do? Can I explain to her that I love someone else and the wedding is OFF?

Here I am outside our room. Inferring to Kriss and me.

Why am I just standing here worrying?
Besides, Kriss doesn't really deserve my love. She wants my crown. Now I understand her completely.

But...it
But I also understand America completely.

How stupid of me. To pass her up like that..

I'm scared to go in. Kriss would be waiting in there for me. Besides, what about that little surprise she promised me.

"There will be a surprise waiting in our room tonight."

I don't want to go in.

I stepped forward.

But I have to. I'm a Prince. I'm not a coward or some kind of coward.

I threw open the door.

Kriss was laying on the bed, she smiles at me sweetly.

"Hello Maxon." She chirps happily.

I glance at her, afraid what I might see.

I sigh. "Kriss. What are you doing?"

She was in black translucent lingerie and she smiles so seducively.

"I feel.....I don't know! Let's just say romantic." She swing her legs off the bed and started her way over me.

What?

"Kriss? This is not exceptional. Not right now." I say slowly.

"Maxon. This is exceptional. We need a heir. Better have it when I'm young." She beams.

"Kriss. My parents are still alive, no need for a heir yet." I sigh.

How am I going to confess to her?

"Kriss?" I motion to a chair.

"Maxon. You are so unromantic, though you were during the selection. Ugh." Kriss sighs and plops in the chair unhappily.

"Kriss I'm sorry.." I apologize even though I'm not.

"Maxon..." Kriss shakes her head and leans back on the chair.

"Look. I given you the best planned wedding, yet, you're acting like this." I scolded her softly then laughed it off.

"Maxon.....I'm...sorry." Kriss jolts up.

"Best planned wedding? Isn't it just wedding?" She looks so worried.

"Kriss, I hope you understand." I swallowed. "You've changed so much ever since you were chosen. You were so sweet during the Elite."
