Maya braced her back against the stone wall of the brothel as she peeked over and saw her father go inside of it along with Jory. Maya had told Winter to stay behind because if anymore had spotted her wolf then they would know that it was her…Maya Stark and not The Mocking Knight, Ser Dorren Thorne. Just as her father and Jory came out of the brothel, a herd of Lannister soldiers came running from all corners of the place and then Jaime…Maya gaped at him as the asshole rode into the clearing on a white horse, surprisingly not in his Kingsguard uniform or in any armor.

What a little shit, she thought, he's such an arrogant ass. I mean come one, was it really necessary to ride in on a horse and flip that blonde hair of his.

Maya's fingers suddenly inched to touch his hair for some odd and weird reason. They tingled to run her fingers through them in the throws of pleas- No! Bad me, stop thinking dirty thoughts about him.

Maya's hand tightened around the sword. She knew that it was only a matter of time before Jaime had come to kill her father. Her mother abducted Tyrion because she believed that he was responsible for Bran's attempted assassination. Maya disagreed with her mother because he was a good man and he's not stupid enough to give the assassin his own blade. Something is very…fishy about all of this. Something is not right.

X had sent another letter to her, early this morning. They told her that her father was in danger and about her mother and Tyrion. What worried her most was that X knew her secret identity and they now had leverage over her. So she immediately put on her armor and followed her father. She covered her entire armored body in a long cloak with shawls covering her face.

"Such a small pack of wolves," Jaime commented, his voice laced with amusement.

"What is the meaning of this, Lannister," Littlefinger questioned.

"Get back inside where it's safe," Jaime replied.

"I'll bring the City Watch," Littlefinger told them and then turned to run away.

He turned her corner and eyed her. He smirked then bowed. "It is an honor to meet you, Ser Dorren." He turned to where her father was and gestured to him. "Do your duty. I'll try to hold off the City Watch for as long as I can so you can get in and get out. Till we meet again."

Maya eyed the man as he left. Why would he want to help me, err, well Ser Dorren? He wants something. I will need to find out what it is. She turned her attention back to her husband and father just as Jaime said,

"I'm going to open your lord from balls to brains and see what Starks are made of."

"If you kill me, you'll never see your brother or my daughter again," her father warned.

Jaime chuckled. "She's my wife, she belongs to me now. You can't take her away from me."

"You're right, I can't. But if I know my daughter, she will find a way to escape from you."

"Take him alive. Kill his men." Jaime ordered causally.

The Lannister soldiers threw spears into the Stark guards' chests. She came out of hiding and quickly blocked a running spear that was headed for her father's chest. Maya swiftly removed the articles of cloths that were covering her. Her armor gleamed brightly in the sun. People froze and gasped as they looked at her and she smirked under her helmet. Good. I like to make an entrance.

Jaime smirked at her and pointed the tip of his sword to her. "We finally meet, Ser Dorren. My wife has told me so much about you. I had hoped that I would see you. Two birds, one stone, guess it's my lucky day."

There's that hint of jealousy again. He really needs to control his temper.

She mocked a bow and managed to say in a deep voice that could be considered a man's, "Do I detect jealousy? Careful, Ser Jaime, your insecurities are showing."

His amusement fell from his face. Then they both charged at each other, but her father got in the way and blocked his sword from striking onto hers. She rolled her eyes and fought the Lannister men. While her father fought Jaime, she fought off the Lannister soldiers. She knocked them out because it was against her moral code for her secret identity to kill. What good would their death do? It did not concern me. Maya looked over to see that Jaime has taken Jory's life by stabbing him in the eye.

Maya elbowed the Lannister soldiers in the face that was in her way. She ran to Jory, who was lying on the ground. She knelled down and checked for a pulse. Her hands tightened and curled into fists as white hot rage coursed through her body. I have to leave before they know. I've lost someone today. Rest Jory. I will avenge you.

She stood up and took Jaime's dagger out of Jory's eye. She put the bloody blade in her belt and walked away. She heard her father shout in pain. She whirled around and saw that a spear that pierced through his leg. She turned sharply around and waited for Jaime to leave.

"My brother, Lord Stark, we want him back," with that, Jaime rode away along with his men.

Maya saw her father fall to the ground and she made a move to go to him, but she heard the hooves and armor clanking down the street opposite of her and she knew what the scene looked like. Shit.

One of the guards of the City Watch brought a scrawny old man out and the old man shouted, "There! There he is! Ser Dorren is the one who caused all of this! He killed the Stark and Lannister guards! He did it!"

Maya's eyes slightly widened then glared at him. Of course, it was them. The Lannisters did this…this was all a trap for me. But how? How did they know that I was going to be here? Unless someone tipped them off…was it X?

She quickly turned around and started to run down the street and turn as many corners as possible. She had to get away from them. She could hear them in the far background as they pushed some people aside though she smiled as she saw one of the people use their cart to trip the guards who fell on their asses. She went into a sewer that led to the tunnels and started to take off her armor. She moved to take off her helmet when something hard hit the back of her head. She fell to the ground, knocked out unconscious.

TBC…

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE REVIEWS, FOLLOWS, AND FAVORITES! I REALLY HOPED YOUS GUYS LIKED THIS CHAPTER!

I know it's really short, but like I always say it's better than nothing. You all already know who knocked her out because it's kind of obvious…or is it? Well, that come up next chapter and I can't believe that the Lannisters are trying to frame Ser Dorren. Yeah, that is going to make Maya very mad. She's not going to like people messing with her secret hero identity.

I hope you're not confused by Maya and saying that as Ser Dorren that she's never killed someone as him of course. It's because I wanted to have her create an alter ego kind of, like he, even though he's a man, like he is the person she always wanted to be. She wanted to be good and a hero that helped the poor. Maya is in conflict with herself and who she wants to be. Does she want to be good or bad because as you all can see; she is heading down a dark path especially when her family is being threatened.

She'll keep to her threat to Jaime for sure because now she is even more pissed off at what he did to her dad and Jory so now she wants vengeance. Honestly, in better and simpler terms, she is like Arya in some way when it comes to the ones she loves. As you all can see that Maya is really buckling herself down on not feeling ANYTHING for Jaime because of what he did. I hate that I have to do that to them and I am peeling my eyes saying, "Why?! Why can't you both just love each other?! And then live happily ever after!"

I'm all with you guys when it comes to these two because it's just so frustrating to not write these two to fall in love already with each other. But it's a long and sad journey between these as you all know from the very 1st chapter.

REVIEW. FOLLOW. FAVORITE. Until next time…
