Jaime Lannister, prisoner of the Starks, is released for one reason. Sansa Stark, prisoner of the Lannisters, is wed to one of their own. They are thrown together unwillingly, starting a tale of intrigue, betrayal, and violence.

A brand new Arya/Jaime AU, separate from 'Be the Lightning in Me,' and an apology to readers offended/pissed off by the ending of 'Field of Fire.' Jaime escapes the Starks and rejoins Lord Tywin, who has been amusing himself at Harrenhal for the past four years. There, he meets Father's cupbearer, a girl who would like nothing better than to stick a knife in his back.
