Chapter 13 - Jaime and Mar'lotha.
"I thought that my father would have turned up by now, as he did say yesterday that he would be here." Jaime has no idea what has happened.
"Is your father a good man?" Mar'lotha wants to know.
"He is pure evil, and so is my sister, Cersei, for if she had the chance, she'd come for me and fuck me in order to have another Joffrey." Jaime replies. "And I pray to the gods that Myrcella doesn't turn out to be mad because of the incestuous relationship that Cersei forced me into."
"My dear Jaime, I'm sorry to hear to hear that." Mar'lotha sees the sorrow in Jaime's eyes.
"But at least I now have my right hand back, so at least I can fight again." Jaime tries to keep his emotions at bay.
They then hear a knock at the door.
"I'll get it." Jaime looks at Mar'lotha.
"I'll tend to the chores." Mar'lotha vows.
"No need to if it's my brother, Tyrion, as I want you to meet him." Jaime replies.
Jaime then opens the door, and Tyrion, Oberyn, and Arya, are standing there.
"May we come in?" Tyrion asks Jaime.
"Sure." Jaime smiles.
They then enter the cottage, and sit down.
"Is father on his way?" Jaime asks Tyrion.
"Father is dead, as is Cersei, and King Tommen." Tyrion replies. "So now we are virtually king-less."
"Does that mean that we are free to return to King's Landing?" Jaime asks, on behalf of himself and Mar'lotha.
"Who do you mean by 'we'?" Oberyn is confused.
Mar'lotha enters the room.
"Me." Mar'lotha replies.
"Who are you?" Oberyn is mesmerised.
"I am Mar'lotha, former Twi'lek queen from planet Ryloth." Mar'lotha introduces herself.
"Twi'lek?" Arya is confused.
Mar'lotha then shows her lekku.
"What are those?" Tyrion wants to know.
"These are my brain tails, or lekku, as they are also known." Mar'lotha replies. "They are a feature of the Twi'lek race. Without them, we would be dead."
"You are very beautiful." Oberyn looks at Mar'lotha.
"Thankyou, and I am happy to have found Jaime." Mar'lotha squeezes Jaime's hand.
"You should come to King's Landing with us." Oberyn is hopeful.
"I would love to." Mar'lotha replies.
Jaime then remembers something.
"Just remembered something that father said to me." Jaime looks up.
"What is that?" Oberyn wants to know.
"Father said that if Tyrion's life was spared, I was to find a wife and sire Lannister children." Jaime replies.
"Why do you say this now?" Tyrion wants to know.
"The woman that I want to have as my wife is in this room." Jaime looks at Mar'lotha.
"What?" Mar'lotha is surprised.
"I have only known you for the best part of 2 days, but am deeply in love with you." Jaime replies. "Will you do the honour of becoming my wife?"
"I will." Mar'lotha puts her right hand on Jaime's stomach.
Tyrion notices this.
"Is everything alright?" Tyrion wants to know what is happening.
"Everything is okay." Jaime smiles.
"Everything is more than okay." Mar'lotha hints.
"What do you mean?" Tyrion is confused.
"Where I come from, there are many species of sentient creatures, including humans." Mar'lotha explains. "When a human mates with a Twi'lek, if the human or Twi'lek falls pregnant, they will emit an aura, which means that conception has been successful."
"What are you trying to say?" Jaime wants to know.
"You are pregnant, my darling human husband-to-be." Mar'lotha smiles.
"What did she just say?" Oberyn looks at Jaime with a look of total surprise.
"Myrcella's brother or sister is growing within me." Jaime replies.
