A few days later

The young ice dragon was in her chambers getting ready for the day with the help of her handmaidens that Jaime had assigned to her normally Samara would help her get dressed but her friend seemed to distance herself from her for these last couple of days.

No doubt not wanting to anger Jaime anymore, Lyarra was furious at her husband for being cruel to Samara and most importantly trying to control who she should be friends with.

The couple had yet to speak to one another, through mostly it was Lyarra ignored Jaime and stared at him coldy at most time deny him any access to her body.

Lyarra knew that her husband was weak for her body at times and knew he found her very beautiful which came to her advantage at times.

Again, she was not happy to spill her guts out at the chamber pot in the mornings, and sometimes in the middle of the night. Jaime had wanted to take her to Pycelle for two days now, but she hated that snivelling excuse of a medic.

Åt Wolf's hour, she snuck out of her room, and sat on a chair. It was in one of the keep's many balconies that she found another person who could help her.

"Kyōko was like that too, before Masato murdered our child. ", he had said.

"You were watching the whole time?" asked Lyarra.

"I did give you some privacy, but I know when someone is about to bring new life into this world. "

"Just from seeing it once?"

"I have a brother and eight sisters. Watched my mother suffer through it all. The last one took her from us. "

"Another daughter?" Lyarra asked.

Fuyutsuki was not ready to tell her that story, or at least the full tale of his family. Instead, he conjured something that looked like a belt from his pocket.

"The healer back home used this to check for pregnancies. Simply tie this around the belly, like an obi. If it glows red, that means you are with child. "

And how Lya hoped it would glow red. As much as she was distanced towards Jaime, she still hoped to give him children that he and she could care for and love them.

She felt the cloth tighten around her, as a soft light began to emit from the cloth. Crimson at first, which grew brighter to achieve a blood red glow.

Much to her surprise, the belt immediately fell off of her, but the happiness was there.

"Congratulations, Lyarra, you are with child. "

" What " Lyarra gasped out in shock.

" Are you sure " Lyarra asked.

" Very sure " Fuyutyski smiled.

Lyarra rest a hand on her stomach and started to rub it gently, " I'm going to be a mother, a mother " the thought scared her she knew in her life imagined she would be married nor a mother.

" Don't be scared I know right know you are nervous but it gets easier with time " Fuyutyski said.

" What should I do " Lyarra asked.

" Well, I would suggest keeping this to yourself " Fuyutyski advised.

" If the Queen learns about your pregnancy that little bundle of yours will not live to make it " Fuyutyski added.

" I know " Lyarra nodded.

The young ice dragon eyes laid down on her stomach knowing she would do whatever it took to make sure her child live to see the very next day.

" But how could I possible hide this pregnacy people will beginning to notice including The Queen " Lyarra mumbled.

" There is something I can do but I am not sure its safe to do " Fuyutyski mumbled.

" What is it " Lyarra asked.

" I can hide your pregnancy with magic but it may affect you a bit " Fuyutyski exclaimed.

" Like how " Lyarra questioned.

" Well, my magic could passed into your womb and passed on to your child and your powers may be out of control a bit " Fuyutyski warned.

"I would do anything to keep my child safe, Fuyutsuki. " Lyarra states.

" Are you sure about this because once this done I can't reverse it " Fuyutyski warned knowing the risks were high.

" Very sure " Lyarra exclaimed.

" It won't harm the baby right the magic " Lyarra mumbled.

" No, the magic is what's keeping your child hidden and safe my magic will provide a comforting feeling to your womb and your child the only effect my magic will have is if the child comes out to a magical and whenever you're feeling upset or moody your powers were react immediately to it " Fuyutyski explained.

" Okay, do it " Lyarra said giving him permission.

Fuyutyski nodded and soon shakily laid his hand on the young ice dragon's stomach his hand started to glow yellowish and his eyes glowing brightly.

He could feel the baby's energy coming from the womb but then he started to pick up on another one or two energy coming from the womb which was strange to him.

" This baby will be magical already " Fuyutyski thought as he could feel magic surrounding the child.

Once the protective enchantment was in placed, Fuyutyski took his hand off her stomach his eyes returning to their normal color.

" All done " Fuyutyski said.

" I didn't feel anything are you sure it worked " Lyarra remarked.

" Yes, I am very sure but I must warn you my magic is only able to hide your pregnancy but it won't be able to hide your symptoms" Fuyutyski said.

" I know I just have to stay away from food for a bit for the remaining of the day " Lyarra signed.

All of sudden a big loud crowing sound came from outside, Lyarra went out on to the terrance to investigate the sound and was in shock to see her little brother Rickon on a crow and Shaggy dog.

" Rickon " Lyarra tearfully said.

" Lya " Rickon greeted as the crow landed on the terrance, he soon got off and ran into his sister's arms, Lyarra immediately hugged her little brother tightly.

Shaggydog soon let out a low howl and started to purr softly.

" I take it the trip went well " Fuyutyski smiled.

" It did " Rickon responded.

" You know about this " Lyarra said staring at Fuyutyski who just smiled at her.

" Yes, Hayate and Rickon here was quite eager to travel to the Capital for the tourney of the hand " Fuyutyski answered.

Lyarra pulled away from her little brother before pat him on the head gently.

" Does mother know you're here " Lyarra questioned.

" Um, no " Rickon whispered.

" You can't just leave without saying anything to anyone, mother must be worried sick " Lyarra exclaimed.

" It's not like she would care she's been busy with other tasks and completely being ignore me and just focusing on Bran " Rickon signed sadly.

Shaggydog could tell his master was upset and immediately made his way towards him and softly purr at him.

" I'm okay " Rickon mumbled as he gently pet his direwolf.

" Littlest wolf I am sure that's not true " Lyarra said.

" Can I stay with you, please don't send me back I want to stay here with you, father, Arya and Sansa " Rickon rambled.

" I'm not going to send you back but I have to inform father that you're here " Lyarra remarked.

" So, this is you and Ser Jaime's chambers " Rickon spoke up heading inside and started to look around.

" Lya, how come you don't have your own chambers " Rickon asked.

" I'm a married woman now it's expected for a wife and husband to share chambers together " Lyarra explained.

Rickon nodded not questioning his sister on the manner and looked around before noticing a little lion cub standing in the middle of the room.

" Is that a lion " Rickon exclaimed his eyes widen in awe as he walked towards it slowly and gently lift it in his arms.

" Yes, he's name is Leo he was a gift from Lord Tywin on our wedding day " Lyarra smiled.

Leo started to purr gently and started to raise his paw to the little wild wolf's face and pat it gently.

" I think he likes me " Rickon smiled.

" I think he does too " Lyarra hummed.

" Where's Crystal, Nymeria and Lady " Rickon asked.

" They're gone " Lyarra simply said, the young ice dragon started to feel tears well in her eyes at the mentioned of her direwolf.

" What happened " Rickon asked.

" On the joruney to King's Landing there was an incident with Arya and the prince, Nymeria bite the prince trying to defend us and Crystal near attacked him " Lyarra began to explain.

" The Queen didn't like this and The King ordered for Lady and Crystal to be killed, Nymeria escaped, father killed them and had them buried " Lyarra added.

" How could father do that, they were of the north apart of us, how could he butchered them like animals " Rickon hissed.

" It's not father's fault, it was the King's decree " Lyarra responded.

" I'm sorry Lya " Rickon said looking at his sister in pity.

" It's okay I'm fine " Lyarra mumbled.

" You mustn't let anyone see you and shaggy dog" Lyarra warned.

" Why " Rickon questioned.

" The Queen will ordered to have your direwolf killed as well littlest wild wolf " Fuyutyski repiled.

" And they will wonder how you got here alone and have no escorts it doesn't look good " Lyarra added.

" So, I have to hide " Rickon signed .

" For now until I can find a solution " Fuyutyski mumbled.

Suddenly, a knock on the door made them jump out of their skin, " Who is it " Lyarra called out.

" Lya, it's me can I come in " Jaime asked.

" You two must hide " Lyarra whispered.

Fuyutyski nodded and immediately transformed into a crow and grabbed Rickon along with him flying out of the window.

Lyarra made her way to her vanity and sat down before picking up a brush and started to brush her hair, " Come in "

The door opened, Jaime walked in wearing his usual King's guard uniform on his shoulders laid a Lion banner.

The golden knight closed the door behind him and made his way towards his wife who wasn't look at him but instead turn her glaze on the floor.

" You look beautiful " Jaime complimented.

" Thank you, my lord that's kind of you to say " Lyarra said.

" How long will you continue to freeze me out " Jaime said in frustration throwing his hands up in the air.

" I'm not sure " Lyarra mumbled.

" Everything I done is to keep you safe, my father is not happy about our lackment of providing an heir for House Lannister" Jaime said.

" We have already made an heir " Lyarra thought thinking about her unborn child that laid in her stomach.

" Jaime, I appreciate that but what I don't understand is why must you be so cruel to Samara " Lyarra said.

" She's a demon Lya there's something unusual about her, she's dangerous " Jaime exclaimed.

" She's is no demon, you're just " Lyarra was about to say but Jaime cuts her off.

" Yes, she is and I don't want you anywhere near her again " Jaime declared.

" So, now you are going to tell me who I can be friend with " Lyarra snarled.

" I'm not asking I am telling you, you are to stay away from that demon " Jaime said.

" No, I won't do it, Samara is my only closest friends I have here " Lyarra exclaimed.

" You can make new friends, I have chosen two southern laidies to accompany you around the red keep, perhaps you will get close with them " Jaime responded.

" And are these ladies choose by your sister " Lyarra said.

" Yes, my sister wishes to help you get use to southern life, you are in the south now not the north " Jaime repiled.

" You are a lion now not a wolf remember that " Jaime added before pressing a kiss to her neck softly.

" I will always be a wolf in spirt " Lyarra defended turning away from him.

" Lya, why must you be so difficult on this " Jaime huffed.

" Difficult " Lyarra bellowed getting up from her seat staring down at her husband coldly.

"Yes, you are being difficult. Truth be told, I don't understand why you are holding on to your pack so much. A lion must only be with lions, you should know that. " Jaime states.

"Did you think that I waned all of this, the Southern life? No! Your father had to be the most ambitious and manipulative man by arranging this match!" Lyarra snarled.

"Your father wanted this, Lyarra. " Jaime defended.

"The Old Gods and the new know that he did not. I appreciate his dutiful attitude, but sometimes I think he was spineless for agreeing to this." Lyarra growled.

Rickon was listening outside , not expecting Lyarra to say something bad about their father. " Mister Hayate will scold me if I say the say the same thing, but I cannot help but agree. Lya was so happy with her old life "

Jaime could not believe what his little ice wolf said. Badmouthing the honorable Lord Stark was the last thing that anyone would do.

" This wasn't supposed to be my life, I was happily intended to never marry and live my life the way I want to " Lyarra added.

"You're a lady, you cannot live the life you want to. " Jaime snarled.

"I despise you."

Lyarra stormed out of the room, not even acknowledging the queen's presence. Cersei didn't seem to mind; the wolf whore would be gone soon.

Trouble in paradise brother " Cersei smirked coming in to the room.

" Sweet sister what can I do for you " Jaime mumbled.

" There is one thing " Cersei said with a devilish smile as she began to undress in front of her brother.

Jaime shock his head." Blasted wench! " he reflected. He couid not do this anymore. He couid not lose Lyarra like this!

" Let me take care of you brother, the little wolf whore hasn't been caring to your needs " Cersei said.

" You know you could annual the marriage if you want, claim she is unable to bear a child father would see to it she's cast away " Cersei added

Jaime kept silent. He knew something was up the moment Lyarra fainted. "What if we already have a child? Surely my seed is potent*, he thought.

" This is for the best my dear brother beside the wolf whore doesnt want to be with you it's clear she wishes to be with that wrench servant of hers all the time, perhaps they're lovers in private " Cersei chuckled.

Jamie chuckled. " God's, no! Aside from that wench, there's that foreigner. I'll ask him"

He smirked, but Cersei did not understand what he was so happy about. Stranger still was that he did not even undress, she stepped towards him and began to run her fingers down his abdomen before placing her hand on his trousers and started to undo his strings.

Jaime had enough, and gently pushed her away.

"Forgive me, sweet sister but I'm not in interested as of the moment. "

" You would deny me " Cersei hissed.

" No, you misunderstood I am very tired at the moment and I have a tourney to win later on today " Jaime explained lying.

" Hmm, perhaps after you will visit me in my bed chambers " Cersei said in a seductive tone.

" If I can " Jaime mumbled.

" When you win give the crown to me instead of the wolf whore " Cersei demanded.

" I will " Jaime vowed.

" Good, best of luck today brother be careful " Cersei said pressing her lips towards him softly before pulling away and walking out of the room.

Rickon jaw opened widened at what he just witnessed between the Queen and Ser Jaime.

" That good for nothing toad " Rickon growled angry at Ser Jaime for dishonoring his sister and with all people his own sister.

" So the rumors were true about The Queen and Ser Jaime being lovers " Rickon though.

" Come along littlest wolf Haycate is waiting for you in the godwoods time for your sword lessons " Fuyutyski said in his crow form.

Rickon nodded and climbed on top of Fuyutyski holding Shaggydog in his arms before Fuyutyski took off.

Later That Day

In the godwoods of the red keep, Rickon was training with Hayate learning a new move.

"That's cheating! How many times do I have to tell you that you should place your thumb on the *tsuba*? " Hayate pointed out while trying to hide his laughter.

"Call me dishonorable, but it's way easier!" Rickon sassed.

It was true. Taking the time to care about where the thumb was placed in the hand guard would let the enemy know that someone was about to draw his sword. It was *not* practical in a pitched battle, and Hayate was secretly glad that the young Staek knew his ways.

The two had continued to practice their moves, not caring for the melee and the archery competition. The Hand's Tourney was simply another excuse to let the King feast and drink. *I think a spirit has possessed him*, he pondered. The memory of what he just saw inside a certain room still shocked him; he could not believe that it was real.

A tap on his blade brought him back to reality, along with Mister Hayate 'a stern face.

"You're distracted, Rickon Stark. How are you supposed to train your mind when you are distracted? "

"I just... saw something."

"Something not for children? "

"I'm afraid so."

Hayate sheathed his weapon, and ruffled the boy' s hair.

"Good thing that you stayed hidden. I cannot let you lose your legs the way Brandon did."

"Big squirrel was always curious. "

This got him a tug on his red locks. His hair had growm quite quickly, but it was still a bird's nest of wild curls.

Footsteps made him sheild his fake sword, relieved to find that it was just Fuyutsuki who entered the impromptu training grounds.

"Rickon child, the jousts are almost about to start. " he informed the boy

Rickon swiftly ran back to a hidden room in the keep, where Hayate had let him use. He dressed himself as fast as he could, not wanting to miss out on the most awaited part of the tourney.

"Mister Hayate, are you going to-"

Alas, he was not there.

Rickon signed in disappoinment before rushing off to the tourney be carefully not be seen by anyone he intended to watched in the shadows.
