Chapter 10: Aftermath
Naida was at the healing wing yet again. She grew up in this place yet it felt so strange to be hear without Cedric,. It feels cold, it feels strange. It feel like she does not belong here anymore.
"Your youngest brothers will be sent to Northern houses as wards they do not deserve their brothers treatment. You sister will be wed off and if not they will have to leave somewhere else. I will find them a suitable placement." Robb said and Naida pushed on the wound a little harder making Robb groan in pain.
"What is your problem Naida?" Rob asked as she was forcefully stitching his shoulder not caring if it caused him pain.
"Nothing my husband. Nothing is wrong." Naida used that sweet annoying voice of her and Robb knew something was wrong. He stopped her hand from moving.
"Will you tell me what is wrong with you?" Robb said his eyes boring into hers trying to intimidate her but they both know that it does not work. He is more scare of her than she is of him.
"Nothing Robb you just talking about shipping my family like they are some kind of cattle." Naida scream whispered to him as they were in the healing wing and they had to keep it quiet.
"What else do you want me to do. You know that Freys cannot be here now. The Lords will not allow it." Robb said and Naida narrowed her eyes at him and went back to stitching him up using more force than needed to.
"You are the King. What you say goes. This is not a democracy Robb. I will not send my whole family around the country to people they do not know and who might hurt them. They are children and they are innocent." Naida said finishing up with Robb and was about to leave when Robb caught her wrist.
"That is the only thing i am doing this. They are children and they are women. They did not do anything. We cannot let them stay here for their protection." Robb said and Naida narrowed her eyes and Robb wished she did not do that. He hated it.
"Baron is 14 years old. He can be the new Lord of the Trident. Leave a man here and teach him. Do you understand that some of my sisters are not fit to get married. Some of them are too old. What will they do. He will swear his allegiance to you and you will leave some of your men here. To teach and help him." Naida said and Robb was getting angry now as well.
"I said no. He will be a ward. I will not let any Frey be a Lord now,not after what they have done. As you said i am the King and what i say goes and this is what i say." Robb said and Naida just turned around hitting Robb with her hair and went to help someone else.
Ysmey saw the commotion and smiled. She knew her sister was not like any other women she knew. She was not going to be considered less than an equal and her husband will find out about it the hard way.
Ysmey looked at the man she was patching up, he had a couple of cuts on his torso and she was able to help. She did not like to feel useless. The man was very handsome, not much older than her. He had black hair and gently trimmed beard. He had a nice muscular body and Ysmey blushed just thinking about it. It was not the first time she wished that she got married when it was her time. She had suitors but she was still in mourning for her love that she lost. She felt like she betraying him even thinking about wedding someone when he is dead. But the fact was that he is dead and she ended up alone. With no husband and no children of her own. She accepted her fate and raised Sherai as her own to suppress her motherly instinct.
The man began to stir awake and Ysmey went back t cleaning out his cuts and not staring at him like a crazy woman.
"If i had died and gone to heaven i am pleased," He whispered in a hoarse voice.
"I am sorry My Lord i do not understand." Ysmey said confused. The man looked at her and smiled.
"Am i alive then?"He asked
"You are very much alive My Lord." She said helping him to sit up a bit.
"Well i am very glad then My Lady and i am no Lord. My name is Ser Jonah Holt." His green eyes were looking at Ysmey intently.
"Are you well do you need anything Ser?" Ysmey asked.
"Will you tell me your name please." He asked
"It is Ysmey Ser." She said blushing as the mans eyes never left her.
"A beautiful name for a beautiful lady." Jonah said and Ysmey looked at her hands blushing.
"You are too king Ser." She said and the man grabbed her wrist gently.
"I am not that kind but i am very honest and i never lie My Lady and when i tell you that you are beautiful i mean it. I could look at you forever if the Gods let me." he said and Ysmey took her wrist back. She was feeling very nervous and she did not know what to do.
"Thank you Ser for your kindness. I should get going. There are others that need help as well." Ysmey said.
"I hope i can see you soon My Lady." Jonah said and kissed her hand lightly. Ysmey smiled left the man's side. She left the healing wing as fast as she could not looking suspicious. She closed the door behind her and rested on a wall before taking a deep breath. She was blushing like crazy and her heart was beating so fast. She had a smile on her face. What was happening to her. She got herself together and went back. There were men that needed help.
When she went back there she was taking another set of bandaged when Naida went over to her and smiled.
"Why are you smiling at me like that. It is creepy." Ysmey said looking at her sister with raised eyebrows.
"Someone is in love." Naida said making a kissy face at her.
"Shut up and do not do that with your face you look weird." Ysmey said and Naida made some more kissing sounds. Ysmey blushed and pushed her sister out of the way. She was not going to take this. Naida laughed and Ysmey just shook her head.
Robb went into his chamber that he was sharing with his wife. He was so tired. He had to burn the dead and take care of the cleaning of the castle. All he wanted to do was sleep. When he entered his chamber he saw his wife packing her chest.
"What are you doing Naida?" He asked she did not even look at him.
"i am going to stay in my sisters bedchamber." Naida said packing her stuff.
"May i ask why?" Robb asked and took a swing from the goblet.
"I will not share a room with a man who does not take my opinion into account." Naida said looking at him with narrowed eyes. Robb sighed he really had no strength to deal with this but he will not let his wife out of this room. He went over to her closed her chest and threw it on the floor.
"You are not going anywhere." he said
"Excuse me. I am not your property i am your wife." Naida shouted at him crossing her eyes.
"That is right you are my wife and that means you will not sleep in another room." Rob shouted back.
"i will do as i please Robb and you will not stop me." She shouted back at him. Robb looked at her with a smug face.
"Go on try." Robb said standing in front of the door and guarding it. Naida crossed her arms.
"Fine i will not leave the room but just wait until you fall asleep then you will regret it." She said taking her dress of and putting on her night dress.
"Your box in not here so do not threaten my wife." Robb said.
"I do not need my box to hurt you husband" Naida said and laid down in bed. She turned around from him and was not speaking to him anymore. Robb sighed.
"Naida please i am sorry for earlier but the Frey family lost its title because of your father it is just how it works." Robb said and Naida sighed. She sat up from the bed and looked at Robb.
"Robb i watched as my whole family was slaughtered in this castle. I know that they betrayed me and you but i grew up with them. I feel conflicted because i do not feel sorry for them when i should. I could at least make sure that the remainder of my family are well cared for." Naida said and Robb sat next to her.
"Fine you chose what happens to your family you have that right." Robb said and Naida nodded.
"Does that make me a horrible person. I do not care that my family is dead and i have killed my father." Naida asked and Robb held her in his arms.
"No that does not make you a horrible person. You were not close to them so they might have been strangers to you and your father was a horrible person. He deserve his fate." Robb said caressing his wife cheek.
There was a knock on the door and Robb groaned.
"What it is now?" Robb asked and one of his bannerman said.
"Your Grace a man came, the Hound and he claims he has your sister Arya Stark." Robb stood up on his feet at once.
"Take me there at once, i need to see her." Robb said and was out of the room befire anyone could say anything. Naida just sighed and got up put on a roe and fallowed him.
Robb nearly ran to the Great Hall where he found his men and the Hound looking at each other like they wanted to kill one another.
"What is the meaning of this, why are you here." Robb asked the Hound who looked at him.
"I got your you sister. I want gold for her as much as she weights."the Hound said and Robb laughed.
"Are you not the personal guard of King Jeoffrey?!" Robb asked and the Hound laughed.
"Fuck the King, i just want my gold and i will be out of here boy." the Hound said.
"He is the King of the North and the Trident show some respects." one of his bannerman said. Naida come to stand beside Robb and held his arms.
"First i need to see if you really have my sister." Robb said and the Hound called for somebody and they brought a girl who was trashing in his hands. She stopped when she saw Robb. Robb looked at her and his heart stopped. Yes this girl looked different. She was older her hair was short and she posed as a boy buy she will remember those eyes everywhere. Those grey eyes of his father.
"Arya." Robb breathed out.
"Robb." Arya said and ran to him. Robb hugged her lifting her off the ground. He cannot believe that he has his sister in his arms right now. He could held her close as tears fell from his eyes.
Naida looked at the two and smiled as her tears fell from her eyes. It was a beautiful scene.
"Well this is touching and all but i want my gold and get the fuck out of here." The Hound said and the two Starks broke apart Arya looked at the man with fire in his eyes. She went over to him and punched him in the arm.
"What that supposed to hurt little girl." The Hound looked at her.
"As much as i hate you and want to stab you in the eye with my sword thank you fro bringing me to my family." She said and the Hound rolled his eyes.
"I did it for money not for you little girl. I hope i never see you again." The Hound said.
"The feeling is mutual." Arya said before standing with Robb who put an arm around her shoulders keeping her close
"Are you sure you do not want to eat something warm and sleep in a bed before your journey Ser." Naida looked at the man who narrowed his eyes.
"I just want to get put of here." The Hound said but with a gentler voice looking at the pregnant woman.
"As you wish. Lord Umber will you please give Ser Clagane the money he was owed and a good horse." Robb said and the man nodded before taking the hound and leading him out of the room.
Robb looked at Arya and hugged her close again.
"I cannot believe you here. How are you not in Kings Landing. Where is Sansa?" Robb asked her. Arya looked at him with sad eyes.
"Sansa is still with the Queen. I was separated. The last time i saw father was when he was kneeling down to get beheaded. Yoren was supposed to take me bck to Winterfell but he got killed. It is a long story Robb and i do not want to talk about it now." Arya said and Robb nodded hugging his sister yet again.
"I bet you are hungry i will get someone to bring you food and make you a bath ready in your room." Naida said and both Robb and Arya looked at him. Arya narrowed her eyes in suspicion.
"Arya i want you to meet my wife Naida." Robb said taking Naida's hand.
"Wife? When did you get married!" she asked shocked before looking at the both of them. Naida laughed.
"A couple month ago in this very room if you must know." Naida said and Arya looked at her with a death glare.
"So you are a Frey?" Arya asked knowing that the Freys have betrayed her brother.
"She is a Stark now Arya not a Frey and she was just as much betrayed as i was if not more." Robb said and Naida smiled sadly at Arya.
"We cannot help what family we are born to am afraid. At least my child will be born into a great family." Naida said touching her growing belly.
"Your with child. You going to have a baby Robb." Arya asked shocked and Robb laughed.
"Yes i am and you are going to an Aunt." Rob said and Arya looked down.
"well i am not going to be a role model for this child. I killed people Robb and i have a list where i plan to kill more." Arya said and Robb lost his breath. His little sister. His innocent little sister had to kill. Robb walked over to her and put a hand on her shoulders
"I promise that i will not let anything happen to you. Once we go to Riverrun you are going back to Winterfell with mother." Robb said and Arya looked at him.
"No i am not. I want to fight Robb. I want to help you." Arya said an Robb was speechless.
"Our mother needs you Arya. She is not as strong as before. Her heart stopped two weeks ago. You need to play the role of Lady of Winterfell." Robb said and Arya looked at him with wide eyes.
"What do you mean her heart stopped is she all right." Arya said beginning to panic.
"She if fine right now but it will be a long time before she will get her full strength back." Robb said and Arya nodded.
"Fine just know i am not happy about this." Arya said
"That is fine with me Arya. I just want you to be safe." Robb said.
Naida was walking back to Arya's room holding boys clothes for Arya. She did not want a dress and Naida was very impressed with that.
When she went into her bedchamber Arya was still behind a screen in the tub.
"Arya i have brought you clothes" Naida said and sat on the bed. Her feel were hurting now and they were all swollen.
"Thank you Naida. I really appreciate it." Arya said getting out of the tub and getting dressed.
"You would look beautiful in a dress you know that." Naida asked and Arya just gave her a look.
"I cannot move in a dress. Those clothes are more practical." Arya sat down on the bed and looked at Naida's belly.
"Would you like to touch it?" Naida asked Arya and she nodded. She touched it gently and Naida smiled.
"It is a miracle that a little person is growing inside of you." Arya looked at Naida who smiled.
"You can have your own children Arya if you want to." Naida said.
"Well i have not bled yet and i do not want to be a lady in some caste who does nothing. I want to ride horses and fight. i want my life to be different." Arya said.
"I do not know you very well but i am sure that you can do whatever you want to do. No one can stop you." Naida said
"This world belong to men. I know that by now. No one took me seriously when i was a girl." Arya said but Naida touched her hand and looked at her closely.
"You are Arya Stark. You and other like you will change this world and show that women are just as good as a man and they are worth more than making babies." Naida said and Arya smiled.
"I see why Robb loved you so much." Arya said and Naida chuckled.
"Yes he dies but he is also afraid of me. When you get married one day remember that a little fear goes a long way." Naida said making Arya laugh.
"You should laugh more often you have a beautiful laugh." Naida said and Arya looked at her.
"Thank you Naida. I am glad my brother has you." Arya said and Naida kissed Arya's forehead
"I am glad you are safe now. I will do anything to protect you Arya and so will your brother." Naida said
"I am so glad to be home." Arya said and Naida left her to sleep.
She went was walking to her room when he heard a giggle and she fallowed it and saw Theon talking to her niece Freya. He was holding her hand and she was giggling. Freya was not a great beauty but she had a pretty face. She had strawberry blond hair and green eyes. She was very much like Roslin in her personality.
"You have beautiful eyes My Lady." Theon said and Freya giggled. She looked at the floor.
"You are very kind my Lord. Thank you." Freya said.
"What is the meaning of this Theon." Naida looked at Theon who bowed down.
"Nothing my Queen we are just talking." Theon said.
"At this late hour. Freya go to your room this instance. You Theon will stay here." Freya left quickly and Theon looked at Naida with scared eyes.
"Listen to me theon Greyjoy. I know you like to fuck but i will not let my niece get pregnant and birth a bastard do you hear me. You want her then you wed her or if i see you next to her again i will make sure your life is very difficult." Naida said and Theon nodded.
"My Queen i do not know what is happening to me but it seems like i have fallen in love with you sister. Ever since she looked at me with those innocent green eyes." Theon said and Naida tried to hide a smile.
"You want to wed her." Naida asked with her eyebrows and Theon took a deep breath.
"It seems so My Queen." Theon looked away.
"So it seems that the kracken has been tamed but i will take into the consideration and i will talk to my husband." Naida said shaking her head.
"Thank you my Queen." Theon said and Naida walked to her room. She saw Robb sitting on a chair and she went over to him and began to massage his shoulder. Robb moaned and put his hand on hers.
"Smalljon demands that Mary would be his. He wants to wed her." Naida raised her eyebrows at this news.
"Why is that?" Naida remembered the big and muscular man with a wild personality.
"Because she was the only one that denied him." Both laughed at it.
"It seems Theon took a liking to Freya." Robb looked at her with big eyes.
"Really, he cannot keep one girl at his side." Robb said and Naida looked worried.
"I said i will talk to you about their betrothal." Naida said.
"Lets not make a haste decision. Lets go to sleep." Robb said and Naida took his hand and took him to bed. They still had a lot of work to do.
Well Arya is back yay! Next chapter Jon will come and i am so exited for it. Please review and and i hope that you enjoyed it.
