"I want to see him," Maya snapped at the guards.
It was just past midnight and Maya had snuck out of the tent while Robb was sleeping. She was still in her white nightgown, but she had put on a robe on her body then a classic Northern cloak around her body as well.
She made her way to where the prisoners were being held. The guards looked at each other then gave a nod in understanding to her. Maya wondered why they were letting her see Jaime. She was sure that both her mother and brother would do everything in their power to keep her from seeing Jaime or hearing about him. This raised her suspicion of what her family was willing to do to protect her…or feed their need for vengeance.
Maya cautiously walked to the wooden cage that they created around Jaime. He was tied in ropes and chained in shackles. Jaime had a beard now and she could see the whips of grey hair on his cheek. He had dirt on his face along with various small cuts and dried blood though even looking like he did you could tell that he was beautiful. To Maya, he truly did look like a fierce lion especially with his taunts at guards when they came to him and unlocked the door.
"Come on now, I'm sure you're smarter than that. It will easy just to kill me instead…besides who knows, I may have been the one who murdered someone close to you or someone you know-oh, wait, I meant 'knew'." Jaime taunted.
One of the guards paused for a moment then looked at Jaime as if he had been considering his words and believing in Jaime's lies and manipulation. Maya rolled her eyes and chose at that moment to speak up, "Ignore my husband," Jaime stopped smiling and looked at her when the guards moved aside since they were shielding her from his sight. "He likes to play games with people especially with his enemies."
He cracked a weak smile. "You know you love that about me since you did the same to me."
"I didn't say I didn't." She turned to the guard and said to him, "He's just grumpy today, ignore his taunts…it may save your life one day."
"Yes, Princess." The guard responded then turned and left as he gave her the keys to the cage which was still opened.
"Are those the keys to my chains," he asked as tried to sit up, but the chains restricted him from doing so.
She scoffed. "They're not that stupid enough to give me the keys that could easily free you and make them lose the war."
"You'd be surprised at how stupid your brother is."
She knitted her eyebrows in confusion and came closer to him. She would've kneeled against him, but the weight of her belly kept her from doing what she wanted to do most of the time. So Maya instead leaned against the cage beside Jaime so that he could see her better. There was no moon out like there had been when they were together and making love in his tent. Instead there were only torches and fire around them, either way she still wanted him. She knew that it was her hormones messing with her head now. Maya wanted to force her child to stop trying to make her seem like whore right now because it was really pissing her off the way she was always attracted to Jaime even when she was sad because of him or angry. Though she secretly hoped that the sensation and heat would never end between.
She knew better though than to hope.
"Why is my brother suddenly stupid," she inquired.
His lips had the smallest smirk on them as he said, "Come closer and I may just tell you."
"Our child won't let me. I can barely get up in the morning now because of it."
He laughed. "That's my boy, always trying to get on your nerves now. He must like me then."
"Seven hells, the world doesn't need two Jaime Lannisters in it. One is bad enough."
"I just want to look at you closer. I've worrying."
She smiled softly and walked closer to him. She put her hand on his shoulder and slowly knelled down beside him. "It's going to take an army to get me up now. I could be your distraction to conquer."
He frowned. "I would never let them use you like that way, Rose."
She raised an eyebrow at him. "Is that so?"
He became dead serious as he looked into her eyes. "Yes, it is. You mean more to me than you'll ever know."
She flushed. "Jaime…"
"I mean it, Maya. No jokes, no games, no master plans-I don't know what I would do without you. When I first met you, I wanted you and I didn't know it then, but I think know enough that of love to know that it's more than just love with you. I'm-I'm afraid I'm going insane right now because you could have our child at any second and because of my actions, I won't be able to see them be born into this cruel world just like I always planned to do with you," he told her passionately.
"A boy or girl? Which one?"
"I don't care which one it is because you will be its mother."
"If I don't make it, Jaime-"
"No," he snapped. "Don't you talk like that way to me. You will not die."
She sighed heavily and her eyes started to water. "What if I…what if we don't…Jaime, I need you by my side when I have this baby because I don't want to be alone right now. I know I will have my mother and brother beside me, but it's not enough, it was never enough and I never knew why until I saw them drag you away from me…not knowing what they planned on doing to you and-and I can't-"
"Shh," Jaime said, "Maya, you need to breathe, alright? Do it. Breathe in and out."
She did as he asked and never took her eyes off of his. His hand that was on his lap managed to lift and hold her hand. She put it on her large belly and he smiled at her. She sniffled and returned the smile. She closed her eyes and relished in his touch. Her eyes opened when his hand went to her neck. She knew he felt it too…he felt that heat, the yearning, the passionate between them. She straddled his thighs and leaned down, kissing him softly the lips. He sucked her bottom lip, turning the innocent and sweet kiss into something not so innocent and sweet.
In between his heated kisses, he said, "Someone…will…mmn…see…us."
She pulled away from him and whispered on his lips, "I don't care." She kissed his bearded cheek and said, "I need my husband, my lover, and my enemy to fuck me right now."
He chuckled and kissed her neck, smelling her. "It's the babe, isn't?"
"A little."
"I don't want anyone to see you. I want to be the only who gets to see your nakedness…" he placed soft kisses on her chest as he continued, "and whimpering…and your moans…and your orgasms."
"Oh, Jaime…I swear that our child is trying to make me like a whore sometimes."
He laughed and pecked her lips. Then he said, "When we fuck or make love, I don't want anyone else to see us. I don't want to fucking chained to a post and in a cage like some animal. I want to be free and have you either beneath me or riding me, naked and wet."
If she wasn't wet before then she definitely was know because of his words. "I'm not mad at you…it wasn't your fault."
He stopped kissing her and looked at her. "The Stark boy would disagree with you on that."
"I know he would. But the fact is that Joffrey killed him-cut off his head and had it over the gates for all to see. He has my sisters with him as well. Who knows what he'll do to them if provoked?"
"What can you do, Rose?"
"If I could do something then I would ran over there and protect my sisters from him-that monster."
A shameful expression passed over Jaime's face, but as quickly as it came and it left just as quickly. "I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault so why do you keep on blaming yourself? Did you kill my father?"
"No, but I might as well have, Rose. Maybe not in your eyes, but in everyone else's Joffrey is like me since I am the one who fathered him so they want someone to blame and they're blaming me for your father's death even though I would've never killed him."
"No offense and all, Jaime, but you did try to kill him when you found out about Tyrion."
"I didn't kill him though now did I?"
"I know, but that little fact is still in the back of everyone's minds along with you fucking your sister and then pushing my brother off a tower when he was a child." Maya said softly then averted her eyes.
She knew that he could easily tell that it still hurt her for what had happened. That it still haunted her and was in the back of her mind everyday along with a tiny voice telling her not to trust him. Not to love this man because he was the father of a monster and he was a monster too. Maya refused to believe that Jaime was a monster. He had made mistakes just like everyone else and one or two of them were probably very big mistakes, but still…they are mistakes to be learned from.
Maya never liked talking about Cersei or what had happened with Bran because it still sickened her to the very core. She would feel her heart slightly crack at the past and memories that only a brother and sister would share. It made her uneasy, but she would ignore that feeling until later. She closed her eyes as his hand went under her chin and forced her head to turn back to him. She felt him lightly kiss her cheek then her lips.
"I love you."
"If you ever escape from here, I want you to promise me that you'll leave me behind and go back to King's Landing," Maya pleaded as her eyes opened and come into contact with pools of emeralds. "Please."
"No," he snapped angrily. "No. No, I won't leave you both behind. You cannot ask me of this."
"I am though. I'll only slow you down, Jaime. If you love me as you say you do then don't be selfish and take me with you knowing that I or the babe could easily die or get hurt out there."
"That's not fair."
"Yes, it is. I promise that I'll come to you."
"I don't think that I can leave you behind. Either of you behind. That's called being selfish, Rose."
"No, it's not, Jaime. Please, just say you'll do it. Please, I'm begging you to."
He didn't give her an answer because he was still too angry at her. "It's late. We should both get some rest." He leaned up and kissed her lips gently. "I love you, Rose…sweet dreams."
She sighed and mumbled as she quickly got up in anger, "Yeah, love you too, sweetie."
Maya walked out of the cage and quickly locked the door. She walked away from him without looking back and gave the keys back to the guards. She walked back to the tent, not bothering to sneak around or hide away. Robb had probably already known that she was with Jaime. She walked into their tent and took off her robe and cloak, throwing them on the chair. She crawled back into bed and heard Robb say, "Did you have fun?"
She gulped nervously. "Yes…yes, I did."
"Good because that is the last time you will ever see or speak to him again, Maya. He's the enemy and we don't negotiate with him. And nothing you say will change my mind," Robb told her then he said, "Good night, sister."
She was too pissed off and furious to reply back to him. So she closed her eyes once more and forced herself to go to sleep again.
TBC…
THANK YOU ALL FOR THE REVIEWS, FOLLOWS, AND FAVORITES! YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING AND I HOPED YOU ALL WILL STAY THAT WAY!
Next chapter is when we'll get back to the storyline and its craziness. I know that Maya may seem bipolar right now, but I want to say it's because of her pregnancy, but it's kind of not. I mean come on, she just practically lost everyone she cares about and the person she cares about most is her father so that's kind of putting her in a state of mind where she's not in control as she usually is. She'll get back to normal, but it won't happen in just the snap your fingers. It takes time and in that time she needs comfort and feels like she can only find that comfort in two things: Jaime and fighting.
Now she's being restricted from dong either of those things so it's pretty funny next chapter what she will have to. I want to say that next chapter we start to see a little more of the old Maya which I always love to see, but can't seem to fit her into the story because she has to grow up like Robb did. There will be some kind of distance between the two siblings and her mother as well because of whom she decided to love and care for before them. They really don't like that she did that to them especially when they find out that she still loves him even after all that him and his family have done to them.
Ok, I need to stop right there before I give away some certain things that I've been having in my writer's mind lately that I am not allowed to give away. SO I hoped you all liked this chapter.
REVIEW. FOLLOW. FAVORITE. Until next time…
