"Lover"
He entered the large bathing room his eyes drawing in on her the second she was in his sight, her curved body stood at the top of the bathing pool, the sun reflecting the waters ripples along her bronze skin, her long brown hair cascading down her back as she slowly started to step in to the water
"Ashlyn"
She turned slowly towards him, a smile gracing his lips as her dark brown eyes looked up to him with admiration, her perfect pink lips slipping in to a graceful smile as she responded to the sight of him
"Seon are you here to watch me bathe or do you have some news?" her musical voice spoke out bringing him out of his trance as he watched her start to rub the bathing cloths over her skin
"Sorry I was entranced by you as always but I have received a most interesting Raven" He grinned down at her in the water his blue eyes shining with mischief
"And whom is this interesting raven from?" Ashlyn grinned back as she watched him sit on the edge of the pool his hands grasping the paper and his legs slipping in to the water
"One Jaime Lanister" Seon watched as her almond shaped eyes grew large with the mention of the well-known name
"Jaime of the house Lanister?" Ashlyn spoke again her voice filled in conflicting emotions, he could see her over active mind jump in to plotting and scheming as her eyes watched his waiting for an explanation for such correspondence
"Yes my love, he is looking for sparring partners due to his unfortunate accident, it seems that I was suggested to his lordship through a mutual friend of ours" He smirked raising his hand to indicate the Lanister's unfortunate accident
"And who is this mutual friend you speak of?" Ashlyn moved towards him slowly her eyes shining with excitement
"Well our old friend Bronn appears to have managed to get himself involved with the Lanister's and suggested that our one handed friend would benefit from some training with me"
"Bronn hmm… well lover I think it would be an interesting venture for us what do you say we make a trip to kings landing, it has been so long since we travelled to a city that we seemed wanted in" Her voice dripped with a sarcastic undertone and fake sweetness that often drew in a lot of her victims
"I will make our arrangements tonight and tomorrow we will leave Bravos for the capital" He smiled as he stood and headed towards the door
Ashlyn turned back to the edge of the pool; it had been a long time since the two of them had travelled through a city. Seon and she were sell swords and good ones; they had never lost a fight and had trained all over the seven kingdoms with the best swords men and best fighters they could find. They had been living in Bravos for a little over a year now and had spent time learning the ways of the Bravosi sell swords, which were known to be the best in the world.
Ashlyn pulled herself up out of the water before wrapping herself in a white robe and moving to sit at the large window in her room, she wasn't sure how long she had sat there thinking but was distracted by the entrance of her young hand maiden
"Are you alright miss?" A small voice spoke from behind her
"Yes I am thank you, now how about we have some tea" She turned and smiled at the young girl behind her
"Certainly miss" The young girl smiled back and headed out of the room quickly
Ashlyn stood from where she was resting by the window and headed across the room to the large trunk at the end of her bed, she pulled open the heavy lid and smiled down at the contents
"I have booked a ship for us my love" Seon's voice called out behind her
"Oh good well make sure the horses are fed and watered and make sure you pack up all of your things I know how you hate to leave things behind" She turned her eyes filled with excitement and joy to the slim figure stood in the door way, her eyes traveling the length of his body.
His small stature which was always a good distraction for his victims as all they see is a small man with little or no strength when in reality he was very fast with heightened reflexes and great upper body strength that was hidden by his small build.
His light brown hair kept sheared short and his beautiful blue eyes admiring her as she continued to do the same to him
"Excuse me miss" the small voice appeared again
"Oh Elyria come in" Ashlyn turned towards the small girl who was stood looking warily at her lover
Ashlyn followed the small girl over to the table and took a seat waiting for her to pour the tea
"It's going to be tight to pack everything and tie up our loose ends for tomorrow" Seon sighed as he perched himself on a chair near the table
"That is correct but I think it is definitely possible and besides it's not every day that we are called to the capital" She smirked as she felt the young girls hands start to dance through her hair with a comb
"And what do you wish to do about your young friend here?" Seon smiled at the small girl who was watching him warily as she brushed through Ashlyn's long brown hair
"Elyria how would you like to accompany us to Kings landing?" Ashlyn smiled softly as she spoke to the young girl
"Miss I owe you my life, I will go where you ask" Elyria spoke out proudly as she started to braid Ashlyn's hair
"you owe me nothing but I will be hard pushed to find a hand maiden as good as yourself so I guess you better excuse yourself early this evening to pack your things" Ashlyn smiled jokingly at the small girl
"Certainly Miss" Elyria smiled brightly as she continued with her intricate design of her mistresses hair
"well Lover I will go and check on progress for tomorrow I will see you in the morning" Seon stood up from his chair smiling at his partner before leaning over and kissing her forehead gently and leaving the room
"Elyria you may leave when you are done" Ashlyn smiled as she felt her hair being secured with the usual pins
"Thank you miss" Elyria smiled and headed out of the room
Elyria was a small girl but not as young as she looked, she was 13 but only looked close to 9, Ashlyn had found her when the girl was 10 years of age, she had been kept by a cruel man who had her locked in a small cage in filth and dirt and he only allowed her out to rape her and beat her when he felt the need
Ashlyn had been travelling through the woods near this man's home on her way to meet Seon after they had taken two small separate jobs, the man had stopped her with an attempt to take her horse and gold but she killed him before he even had a chance to draw his sword. Normally she didn't loot those that she killed she never needed to as her rewards always paid enough but today she felt this need to check the man's house and that's where she found her, almost dead, barely breathing and practically starved to death.
Ashlyn shook herself as she remembered the horror that she saw on the girls face as she approached and she was proud of how far Elyria has developed since then, although she noticed she was still wary of men she had proven herself to be a loyal hand maiden and a good one at that.
Ashlyn sat down on the end of her bed and started to pull out the contents of the trunk, the metal shining and the blades as sharp as ever
She smiled to herself as she placed them out ready to depart the next morning on their next big adventure.
Seon watched as she walked towards him, her long brown hair pulled in to an intricate braid, her body hugging armour still making her look feminine and deadly all at the same time, her war hammer strapped to her back and he was well aware that she would have concealed weapons all over her body, she smiled at him as she approached her young maid following behind carrying some small bags
"Is everything ready?" Ashlyn looked him over as she spoke, his armour light and fitted so as to not slow his movements, his long thin sword strapped over his shoulder, with his daggers and other assorted blades strapped around his waist, he didn't seem as threatening to view as she knew he was and that's what made them both dangerous, people constantly under estimated their abilities
"yes the ship is in the port and the horses are ready to go" Seon grinned as he motioned towards their horses, Ashlyn's a tall white stallion with a dark grey mane and Seon's large black horse with distinctive green eyes.
"Well to kings landing we go then" Ashlyn smiled as she mounted her horse and watched as her maiden also mounted her own smaller beast
Jaime knocked and entered his father's chambers his eyes looking around at the mounds of papers and plans left around the room and his father himself sat looking down at the table writing away in to a large book.
"I hear there are going to be two more sell swords gracing the city" Tywin's cold blue eyes glanced upwards at his son his voice cold and unfeeling as always
"Whispering birds talking to you again father" Jaime smiled as he watched his father stop writing and lean back to look up at his son
"Have you or have you not invited two more sell swords in to the capital" Tywin barked waiting for his son to confess
"I have why is that a problem?" Jaime grinned; he enjoyed making his father angry, one of the things that he had in common with his baby brother
"we are still involved with a war and your brother is on trial for murder and his body guard is a former sell sword and you invite another two here on a whim" Tywin growled his eye flaming with anger at his sons actions
"they are coming to help me train with my left hand, they are not interested in the trial or the war they were living in Bravos and besides they are sell swords they work for money and who would have more money than us to pay for their allegiance" Jaime smirked as he leaned on the edge of his father's desk
"This is still a risk and you should know better, we have enough enemies breathing down our neck and you invite two well-known assassins to the city" Tywin stood up and paced around the desk towards his son who was still leaning casually against the front of the desk
"they are here to help me train nothing more, I am paying them and then they may do as they like I do not see what the big deal is for all we know they could become some great allies because the gods know we are running out of them" Jaime stood up to face his father
"Let's hope this doesn't back fire on you" Tywin grinned maliciously as he walked back to his seat at the desk
"let's hope so father let's hope so" Jaime smirked as he turned and headed out the door
"So what are they like?" Jaime asked as he and Bronn stopped their sparring for the day, the two leaning against the cliff edge
"Seon is a great swords man, there isn't a blade he can't use and he is fast with skills that can catch the most skilled of swords man off guard" Bronn shrugged as he spoke about his old friend, he knew his friend was one of the best and he could help the king slayer but it wasn't the thought of seeing that particular sell sword that swayed his choice when Jaime had asked about training with others
"Seon from the house of Ford" Jaime glanced at Bronn who was guzzling wine from a skin
"Yeah that's him" Bronn shrugged again, he was aware of the pair's reputation in fact he knew he had helped to build it
"So the other that will be traveling with him will be?" Jaime looked to the dark haired man beside him, his scruffy appearance echoing his brash and rude behaviour
"Ashlyn of house Hazlet" Bronn grinned as he thought of the small woman; he had very fond memories of her and the last times they had met
"I saw her once in battle" Jaime smiled a little as he recalled the small dark haired warrior
"Oh I have seen her in action many a time" Bronn smirked as his thoughts played through some of his favourite memories of her
"she was magnificent, she moved with speed I haven't seen a woman use, she used her weapons more skilfully then any man that went against her and she did it all with a smile on her face" Jaime mused as he thought back to the small woman
"Well wait till you meet her in person" Bronn grinned as he pushed himself off the rock and turned to grab his sword
"You say they are due to arrive in the morn" Jaime looked towards the scruffy knight as he fiddled with the straps on his false hand
"Aye they will be there then so I'll bring them here at the normal time am sure they will be interested to meet you" Bronn nodded slightly before heading away from the handsome blonde man and towards his favourite tavern
"What's this a sell sword caught off guard?" her velvety voice spoke out quietly as he felt a knife pressed to his throat, he knew that voice he would know it anywhere
"There is only one person who was ever able to catch me off guard" Bronn smiled wickedly in to the darkness picturing her in his mind, her long dark hair, her beautiful brown eyes, her large breasts hidden under armour that still managed to show her small waist and curved hips, her wicked grin making her seem menacing and beautiful at the same time.
"Oh really? Well it would appear I have caught you off guard" She smiled as she gripped on to the beam tighter with her legs to make sure she didn't fall from her position
"Then you have to be her because there is no one else who would get to me so easily" Bronn heard the noise above him and realised that's how she had done it, she was hanging from the ceiling beams
"Oh Bronn you spoil all my fun" She whined as she felt his hand reach up towards hers and moved to pull her down from where she was hanging above him with her knife at his throat
"Ashlyn your still a very naughty girl I see" He smirked as he felt her drop from the beams and wrap her legs around his waist her breath now tickling the back of his neck, the knife not moved from its deadly place near his main artery in his throat
"You wouldn't want me any other way Ser Bronn" Ashlyn smirked, she couldn't believe her ears when one of the stable boys had told her where to find Ser Bronn of the black water, when she had last seen him he was headed to the Riverlands for a small job he had acquired and now he was here in Kingslanding working with the Lanisters and a knight of all things
"I can think of a few ways I would like you actually" He grinned as he reached around and pulled her around to his front so that his groin was now pressed in to her inner legs, his hand slipping around her grazing her ass and grabbing her firm thighs to hold her in place
"Oh am sure you would but there is only thing I want from you now" Ashlyn grinned maliciously as she watched his eyes widen a little in the dim light of the tavern walk ways
"What's that then?" He smiled hoping to have the pleasure of getting her back in to bed with him, he had many women over the years and plenty where good fucks but she was something else, she was wild and willing, she fucked like a whore but acted like a lady, he had always liked her a bit more than the friendly way she looked at him.
"Well for starters you can show me where to find Jaime Lanister and secondly tell me where I can find somewhere to stay" She smiled brightly at him feeling the way his body had reacted to her last statement
"Is that all?" He growled moving to lean her against the wall so that he was pressed harder against her small subtle body, her breath hitching a little at the contact between her legs and her back hitting the wall
"Yes it is" a second voice spoke behind him and he immediately let his hands drop from her thighs where he was holding her up against him
"Seon" Bronn smiled at his old friend as he turned towards him
"Bronn it's been a long time" Seon grinned as he twitched his long thin sword on the armour that protected Bronn's stomach
"You haven't changed at all" Bronn smirked as he felt the small girl that had been behind him slip around him quickly and to the side of the man in front of him
"No we haven't but you, you have changed a lot a knight of the realm, and working for the Lanister's requesting our presence through Jamie Lanister?" Seon smiled watching Bronn trying to figure a way to escape should this turn violent
"I was training with the king slayer and he needed more instruction who better then you" Bronn frowned slightly, he hated to admit that the younger man was as good as he was, Seon had everything Bronn had always wanted, a huge reputation, good jobs, good money, good looks and he had Ashlyn, The two were inseparable and couldn't bear to be apart for long periods of time.
"Yes we heard why else do you think we would risk being here" Ashlyn giggled lightly
"Well you better come with me" Bronn smirked as he started moving down the taverns hall way towards the main door
"You may need to reacquaint yourself with him" Seon whispered as the pair followed their old friend through the tavern, their eyes alert and taking in each movement of the other patrons. Bronn was a friend but they knew friends turn just as easily if they are bought by money and Bronn was no different, the way they lived was being paid money to sell themselves so why would he be any different
"You may be right, I do hope he has improved" Ashlyn smirked as she looked around the tavern quickly her eyes scanning faces and body language as she moved towards the door, her attention caught on a large man, his body easily towering over the others in the tavern, his demeanour rude and unforgiving and his piercing dead eyes following her every movement, she felt herself smile at the large man as he studied her.
"So what exactly did you tell the King slayer?" Seon's voice breaking through her concentration as they passed through the door way
"Well he needs to learn to fight with a disadvantage and well let's face it am good at fighting dirty but your used to the disadvantage" Bronn grinned, he had never been able to admit that Seon was the better fighter always letting himself believe he was the better out of the two even if Seon would beat him in a sparring match Bronn always maintained that he was lucky that time
Ashlyn rolled her eyes at their macho display as the two continued to talk, her dark eyes continuing to scan the area looking for threats of danger. Although she was aware of the large man from the tavern having followed them outside and was now stood in the shadows of the building watching their every movement
"And if that is the case where are we to meet the disadvantaged Lanister then?" Seon looked back at his small partner to check she was still surveying their surroundings while he talked things over with the dark haired knight in front of him, with a small nod from her he continued his questioning
"There's a place down by the coast I will show you tomorrow, it's secluded and no one will hear a thing but tonight let's take you some where to stay" He grinned lecherously at Ashlyn as she smiled sweetly at the older sell sword
Ashlyn knew Bronn had always found her attractive; they had met when she was 16, she had just taken her first job and he admired her work. They had ran in to each other a lot over the years and although it was well known that her and Seon where a couple of sorts it was also well known that they slept with others on their travels, normally they did this to get information or to make allies but occasionally it was simply that they wanted to.
Bronn had been a acquire information affair and it had worked well for Ashlyn, she showed him a good time and he helped them with gaining a reputation and jobs. Bronn was 5 years her senior and had been working in the sell sword trade for a while when they started so he knew the right people, the good ways of getting jobs and the best people to train with.
Eventually they parted ways but they did run in to each other from time to time and he never let her forget that he had "made her squeal" was the term he used however she just thanked the gods that some of her friends growing up worked in the whore house and had taught her a few tricks that had helped her get by over the years.
"This place is bound to suit you" Bronn grinned as he led them through a small alleyway and in to a court yard towards a large door
"And what makes you say that?" Seon raised an eyebrow as they walked in to the door way and were greeted by the sight of naked men and women stood in rows watching the door for visitors
"You brought us to a whore house?" Ashlyn smirked looking around with interest at the setting she saw before her
"Figured you wouldn't mind relaxing before you meet with the king slayer" Bronn grinned at the pair, his eyes suddenly flying up towards a door that had opened down the hall way
"Ser Bronn" a heavily accented voice purred behind the pair
Ashlyn and Seon turned quickly their hands automatically reaching for concealed weapons in a defensive manoeuvre
"Prince Oberyn" Bronn bowed slightly at the tall dark haired man whose eyes were studying the pair with interest
"And who are you two?" The prince moved forward a step as the two dropped their hands away from their weapons and moved to bow a little towards the half dressed man
"I am Seon of house Ford and this is my partner Ashlyn of house Hazlet" Seon offered as he bowed his head towards the dark skinned man, his dark hair tousled from his activities and his body covered by a small wrap around his waist leaving his toned and well defined chest exposed
"I have heard of the both of you, if I am not mistaken there is a price on your head in my country for killing one of our maesters" Prince Oberyn grinned at the pair, his eyes travelling over their bodies in an appreciative manner
"Dorn, Maester Wyngard, contract by your brother after he discovered the old man enjoying the company of two little boys he was keeping in a cage in his home" Ashlyn smiled as the memory played through her mind, her eyes shining as the image of the Maesters death filled her head.
"You seem almost joyful at the thought of the man's death" Prince Oberyn face shifted to a smirk as he watched the young woman in front of him
"The death of anyone who enjoys the torture of children is always a reason to smile" Ashlyn's face distorted in to a frown as she thought of how those boys had been treated by the old man, a snarl starting to grace her lips as anger filled her
"I couldn't agree with you more my lady" Oberyn grinned, the fire in her eyes captivating him
"I may be a lady by birth but I would hardly use the title now" Ashlyn's pink lips pulling in to a smirk as her eyes wandered over the form of the Dornish prince in front of her
"My lady if more women of the court behaved like you I think this world would be a much more interesting place" The Prince smiled brightly at the small woman in front of him, her cheeks flushing slightly at the compliment
"Ser Bronn are you and your guests staying here tonight?" Oberyn quickly looked up at the two men who were standing behind one of the most interesting women he had ever encounted
"these two wouldn't stay anywhere else" Bronn grinned looking between his old friends and the prince, the smile was faked towards the self-assured royal, Bronn didn't trust him and knew all about the bad blood between the prince and Lanisters and found it surprising that he would remain staying here after the wedding other than to deal with Tyrion's trial. He also did not like the way he was looking at Ashlyn, although he was aware of the way the young woman enchanted men all the time in fact she was well known for it but while they were together he often made it a point to spend his time with the girl but how could he get her to bed with him if the prince was to make a claim on her.
"well if you are to stay you should stay as my guests" Oberyn announced loudly to the hall way and his call echoed in the vast space young men and women suddenly appeared from several doorways and started to fuss over the traveling companions
"begging your pardon Prince Oberyn but I have a young friend with me she is in the stables down the road if you wouldn't mind sending someone to get her but she is nervous so please make sure it is someone who will not harm her because I will not take it lightly if she reports so much as a wrong look in her direction to myself" Ashlyn smiled sweetly as her tone dripped with honey towards the prince but her eyes stayed firm to show she meant everything threat she said
"Of course my lady I will send someone right away" Prince Oberyn smiled and turned to speak to a young blonde haired boy who was stood behind him
Ashlyn turned to look to Seon who was watching everything around him with interest, his eyes marking each person and movement looking for threats against the pair
"Seon why don't you chose yourself a fuck for the evening" Bronn grinned pointing towards the ladies stood in the foyer waiting to be chosen each watching the group with interest and enthusiasm, he hoped that if he could definitely keep Seon out of the way then he stood more of a chance with Ashlyn tonight
Seon turned to look at Ashlyn for a split second before winking at her and turning back and heading towards the women with Bronn behind him
"My lady are you married?" Prince Oberyn whispered towards the small woman as she watched Seon and Bronn with the women
"No your highness I am not married" Ashlyn turned and smiled at the prince looking through her long dark eyelashes at him
"But you travel with your companion" Oberyn moved towards a seat at the side of the hall way
"yes we are lovers but we understand that our lifestyle doesn't account for being modest and proper so we adapt" Ashlyn explained as she smiled over at Seon, she did love him with all her heart but they both knew it was impractical for the jobs that they do to believe that they could have a normal courting couple relationship so they decided long ago to stay lovers and be with each other but that when it called for they would be happy to share their beds with others
Oberyn studied the young woman for a second before glancing over to the young man who she travelled with; he had chosen a small dark haired girl who bore a lot of resemblance to his lover, looking over to her with a smile before he followed the girl to a room
"I have a similar relationship myself" The prince suddenly spoke as Ashlyn watched Seon leave with the girl he had chosen for the night. She had spoken to many women who asked her if it hurt to see the man she loved with another woman but to her she knew that it didn't mean anything to him it was for information or carnal pleasure and that was all, he loved her and she knew it and felt it whenever they were together so his actions with others didn't hurt her or bother her because she knew he would always come back to her.
"Oh really" Ashlyn turned to look at the prince who was sat a little closer then she had realised
"Yes my lover she enjoys other women and men as well as me" Prince Oberyn grinned as he imagined the two women together
"how interesting" Ashlyn glanced across the hall way to where Bronn was stood talking to a young red haired girl as she spotted her young hand maiden being led in by the young blonde man who had spoken to Prince Oberyn earlier
"Elyria" Ashlyn stood and headed towards the young girl knowing she would be anxious and being near her would make her feel better
"Mistress I have all of the bags with me" Elyria smiled anxiously up at her mistress as she took in the scene around her
"Oh good Elyria thank you" Ashlyn smiled down at the small girl before turning towards Prince Oberyn
"And who is this?" He asked as he approached the two women
"This is Elyria, she is my hand maiden" Ashlyn smiled down again at the small girl carefully watching for people looking in the young girl's direction, the young girl had recently flowered and this meant that men would start to look at her as a woman even though her body and looks seemed younger than she was, Ashlyn always found herself worried when she had Elyria with her, she hated the thought of another man trying to take advantage of the young girl
"A pleasure Elyria" The prince grabbed the small girls hand and raised it to his lips with a bow as the young girl blushed
"Well your highness we have done a lot of traveling today and I would really like to sleep is there a room where we may set up for now?" Ashlyn looked between Prince Oberyn and Bronn waiting for a response and also trying to let the statement explain that she was not interested in sharing her bed this evening
"Certainly I will have one of the girls take you" Prince Oberyn spoke up first as Bronn approached her quickly
"Let me take those bags" Bronn grinned down at the young girl stood next to Ashlyn as he grabbed the bags from her grip
"Just this way miss" a young red haired girl smiled as she gestured for them to follow her, the same red haired girl who had been talking to Bronn not moments before, Ashlyn narrowed her eyes a little as she looked the girl over and realised she would have to have her wits about her if he was trying to plan something tonight
"Thank you for the room and I hope to see you soon" Ashlyn smiled seductively towards the prince as she bowed and followed the young girl towards a set of stairs with Elyria right behind her
Prince Oberyn watched as the two young women disappeared up the stairs followed by the scruffy knight that had greeted him with Tyrion Lanister when he had first arrived, he smirked to himself as he thought of her, she definitely was intriguing.
"So you say you saw them in the tavern?" Tywin's eyes lit up with question as he looked up at the oversized man
"They were talking to that sell sword that works for the imp" The large man growled as he looked down at the hand of the king
"The Imp is my son even if he is an abomination and you will talk about him with his title and as for the sell sword did they seem to know each other" Tywin sat down at his desk, his eyes studying the large man's face carefully as he thought over this new information
"Yeah they looked to know each other" The large man scowled at being corrected
"I knew it he called them here to plot something but what" Tywin frowned as he started to think what the three sell swords could possibly want in kings landing
The large man just stood there waiting for his instruction, he was hoping he would be asked to go and find the woman, he felt like spending a night with that one willingly or not. She had a body like nothing he had seen before and with her being in armour made him want to dominate her all the more but when he looked to her face and found her eyes looking back at him with a smile he knew he would have to have her.
"I want you to find out what you can about them but do not touch them yet we need to see what they are doing here" Tywins voice broke through the large man's fantasies
The large man grunted as he turned to head towards the door, his brain still thinking off what he would like to do to that small woman
"And Gergor" Tywin called
Causing the large man to stop and turn back a little towards the cold stare of Tywin Lanister
"Do not touch the woman" Tywin smirked as he heard the mountain groan another time before walking out of the room
So not very long but hopefully you enjoyed it...
I know it was very Ashlyn orientated at the moment but it will even out as we go through the story and we meet more characters but I just fel that Ashlyn was very nuch the out going and loud personality who does the talking and the planning while her other half is the quieter more reserved type of man
Please let me know what you thought even if you hate it thanks for reading
