"I'm going to kill him! The voice echos inside the chambers of her good-sister. She could not believe it?! Her dear brother got Elia pregnant- again! She barely survived the first one with Rhaenys but no, he just had to get her pregnant again.

Elia looked startled for a minute before an amused expression broke on her face, "As if our beloved princess could do such a dishonorable act. No- she would slap her brother to the seven hells, if you'd ask me" Elia said with an innocent smile.

Aelinor gave her good-sister a smirk, "My dear sister you seem to be right- now tell me where my stupid brother is", She said and jumped out of Elia's bed , "Tell me now- tell me now and I'm going to go to his stupid face and slap him"

Elia just shrugged her shoulders innocently before giving a gentle smile, "I's okay really-" But before Elia got to say her sentence, Aelinor was already on her way to his solar.

Aelinor stomped her feet through the corridors in the Red Keep before bursting into Rhaegar's chambers. She met face-to-face with her brothers annoyed yet calm face, "What in the seven hells are you thinking Rhaegar?! Elia just gave birth to Rhaenys! Do you realize how dangerous this can be for Elia at all? She could die Rhaegar?! How could you think of even doing such a stupid-" Before she could even say what she needed to him Rhaegar holds up a hand while his face screams that he's angry.

Rhaegar gave his sister a glare, "You have no right to storm inside my solar and then shout at me demanding me to explain myself. Elia knew her duty, and that was to give me heirs. And by her being pregnant is simply great. And if you're still going on about her life on the birthing bed, she knows that the child will be put first if anything should happen" Rhaegar shouts while trying to compose his voice so that none of Varys spies might hear him.

"But Elia could die Rhaegar!? Does that mean nothing to you", She cries out frustrated on her brother. Why could he not understand that he is putting my sister in danger?

Rhaegar's glare darkened, "Do not speak to me like that sister", He spat out, "Like I said me and Elia both know what might happen. Now-please excuse yourself sister and walk yourself out, before I have the guards do it themselves", With that, he stood up and nodded at the door.

Aelinor stared shocked at her brother before scoffing and storming out.

----------------------------------------------------

"Why is he doing this mother?!" Aelinor cries,bursting in on her mothers chambers. She marches towards her mother and sits down on a silver chair. "Why would he risk Elia's life for some heirs? Do you know what the dornish would do if they found out?!", Aelinor growled. "We all know who had the real power mother. And it's not my father. It's Tywin Lannister. We all know this, he became the enemy the day father called his daughter a servant's daughter.", She scoffs while staring outside watching people outside the Keep.

Her mother only smiled sadly, "I know dear, but we know Rhaegar. He would not do anything stupid", She assured her daughter "And I don't think he is risking Elia's life. He can not help it if Elia gets pregnant." She answered back, before taking her daughter's chin so she could look at her. "You must understand now Aelinor"

Aelinor only rolls her eyes and huffs in annoyance, "It will always be Rhaegar, won't it mother? He is the perfect crown prince." She growls back "But trust me on this mother, he will do something that will destroy this.", She looks back outside giving a small sigh.

How right she was on this.

If only someone listened.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Aelinor was walking with a hood covered over her frame as she was walking toward the new orphanage she was visiting. She smiled briefly before walking inside. She knew just by looking at the place that they needed help.

As she thought over the thing she could change, a voice made her jump slightly.

"I'm sorry miss. But I wanted to say that you are very pretty", Aelinor was surprised to say the least, she didn't see the child until she began to speak. Looking down at the child she noticed that the clothes she was wearing wasn't much to help her cover herself up . She was holding a small dirty doll in her hands.

"Thank you dear" she answered with a laugh, "But I must say you are the most prettiest girl I've have ever seen." The child smiled widely before running away to play with her friends.

A woman walked over to her with an apologetic smile,"I'm sorry if Willow bothered you miss. But if I may ask miss, is there something I can help with?"

Aelinor smiled softly,"You could begin to maybe tell me how many children there is in the orphanage"

The woman gave Aelinor a surprised expression, "W-well miss. It is 58 children in this orphanage, but there is many more on the other ones in Kings Landing. I-i'm sorry miss, but why are you asking me this?"

Aelinor was silent for a minute before responding,"Well, I would love to help out with the children in Kings Landing. I never really had a good childhood growing up. It was mostly only me and my older brother-but he didn't play with me often" She admitted truthfully while looking at the children who played together.

The woman furred her brows and smiled sadly,"I'm sorry to hear that miss. It is the same with the children but, only worse. Some of their mothers left them simply out of boredom or they couldn't feed them. It's all a sad story really" She explained with a soft smile before glancing back at the lady.

"Can they read or write?"

"No"

Aelinor turned around abruptly, "So the children can't do anything?" She muttered mostly to herself. She sigh again before an idea come to her mind.

At that she began to smile widely. She could really help the children.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pushing past the kingsguard and knocking quietly on the door she hear a quick 'bring her in'. Aelinor began to feel uneasy. She always felt that way towards her father. He hadn't changed much in those two months he had locked himself up in his solar, claiming he saw traitors everywhere-even his children and sister-wife.

Looking at the floor Aelinor takes a deep breath before asking calmly, "Father"

He didn't look up. Keep in mind he didn't do anything at all. Just staring at his book. "What do you want girl! Don't you see that I don't have time to do this?!" She gave a squeal and jumped slightly before holding her breath.

She looked at anything but his eyes, "I only wanted to have your permission to open a school for children. To learn. I've noticed that the orphans and children in Kings Landing don't know how to read and understand things. So...I wanted to ask you if I am allowed to do this"

Her father gives a small snort as if she said something funny, "If you want to help those shits, then be my guest girl. I wouldn't give two shits about the children in Kings Landing"

She breathed out shakily before responding, "Thank you father" With that she gave a small curtsy and hurried out of his solar.

When she entered her room she gave a small smile as she spun herself around.

She was finally going to do this. Helping and caring for others was always something she wanted to do. Especially children.

She laughed wholeheartedly before jumping on her bed and burying herself in her pillows before falling asleep.
