Chapter 13

Knights from all the realm keep coming to King's Landing. All of them bring more people, free riders, craftsmen, men-at-arms, merchants and of course, whores. The reason of this was the Hand's tourney, a tournament made by the King to honor my father in his new position.

My father was against this, especially when the Crown is full on debts. I can understand him and I began to wish that the King don't make plans for another tourney for my marriage.

"I should be the one who must be excited, dear sister." I told Sansa.

She was twisting the upper part of my hair. "You will meet Ser Loras, 'The Knight of Flowers'. He is handsome." Sansa said in a dreamy tone. I rolled my eyes. "You should marry him, he is better than the Kingslayer. Lannisters are not trustworthy people."

"First, his name is Jaime and second, I have to inform you that Joffrey is a Lannister too."

"Joffrey is a Baratheon and he's different from the Kingslayer. Joffrey is a gentlemen and he is the bravest Prince I've ever seen." I rolled my eyes again. He's a fucking girl… "And the Kingslayer has no honor, he swear to protect his King and he killed him."

Better not discuss anymore with Sansa… She is so naïve…

After she finished to arrange my hair, between Sansa and Leila, help me to choose the perfect dress for me for my encounter with Loras Tyrell.

I wasn't excited, I already knew he was gay, both for the book and the TV Show. My match with Loras is impossible, but that doesn't mean I can be his friend and win an ally.

"You look beautiful Lily." Sansa cooed. "We did a great job on you."

My hair was loose at the back and my upper head was hung with braids and flower brooches. I had a light blue-grey gown, its neckline was around my shoulders and barely had sleeves but enough to hide my already healed wound from my right arm, and the fabric was a mix of cotton and embroider silk. The gown was really fresh for this heat and comfortable too.

"I see you for supper, if Loras don't ask me first." I said to Sansa as I was walking to the door.

"Lily, can I stay a little more in your chambers? I love staying here." Sansa asked.

"You can bring Septa and Arya-" when I named our little sister, my red-haired sister winced. "You need to stop hating her. We need stay together in this place, especially you two. This isn't North." I scold her. "Take care of Luna." Then I look to my direwolf, which was on my bed looking at me. "Stay with Sansa."

The place where I was going to meet Loras Tyrell was on the garden, typical from someone who came from Highgarden. I was going to lunch with him, it can be named as a 'blind date', but I think that term doesn't exist here.

When I get to the place where I was going to meet him, I saw the most handsome man I've ever seen in this world (besides of Jaime). His hair was a mass of lazy brown ringlets, he was tall and lean.

"Ser Loras." I made my courtesies to him.

He took my hand and leave a delicate kiss. I look his big eyes, they were a mix of brown and gold, his eyes were really beautiful. The man was fucking hot… "The rumors were true about your beauty, my Lady Lylian." He let go my arm and gave me a red rose. "A rose for a beautiful winter rose."

"Thank you, Ser Loras." Giving a smile to him.

He offered his arm and I took it. Both of us began to walk around the big garden of the Red Keep before lunch, knowing each other better.

*.*.*.*

I return to my chambers in a very good humor. Loras was nice and I like him as a friend, he was surprised about the rumors of my fighting skills and my love for riding, but what surprised him more was the fact that I was good in singing and drawing. "Results very strange and exotic for a woman being good in both lady and man activities. You are a very interesting woman, Lady Lylian." Loras said surprised.

We get along very well, he promised to take me to Highgarden, to draw beautiful things, sing whatever I want and sparring with him if I want to. Married with another man or not, he will keep that invitation.

He's cool… Too bad he plays for the other team…

My thoughts were interrupted by the knock of my door. I leave the rose over the table to open the door. And there he was, the one who makes me forget everything for a moment.

"Jaime…"

He smiled by seeing me like that. "I'm still producing that blush on you."

"Don't be arrogant, Lannister." I spat at him angry.

I saw his eyes looking at something behind me. "So it's true. You were with 'The Knight of Flowers'." he mocked. I noticed some tension in his voice.

"Yes, I was with him. Knowing my other possible-"

"My competence." Completed, not letting me finish the sentence. "I see it will not be so hard to have your hand."

"You don't know that." I spat again.

Fucking Lannister and his big ego…

"Oh… yes, I do." He jested.

"You don't know anything. You barely know me." I crossed my arms angry.

"I barely know you, yes." He give a slight nod. "But he doesn't make you blush as I do." He smirked.

"I blush easily-" How he know I wasn't blushing in front of Loras? I look at him surprised. "Wait a minute...? You were spying on me?" I asked angry.

"You almost never get blushed." Jaime corrected me, without answering my question. When I was going to protest, he didn't let me and continue. "Not counting the Southern weather, I know that the weather make you blush." Indicating. His fucking smile appeared again. "And I always make you blush when I'm around you. These few months served me well for knowing you better."

I was going to refute what he said, but I had nothing. He was fucking right. "Why do you come here? Uh? To mess me around?"

"No, I want your answer about the question I told you few days ago." I look at him confused. "I want you to take supper with me."

I look at him furious. "I'm not going to accept your invitation because of your arrogant and ass attitude towards me."

"All right then. I guess I have to apologize again, but first…"

Everything happened so fast for me. One moment I was arguing with him, and the next he was kissing me. Again!

His kiss was aggressive but delicate, sweet and possessive… all at the same time. It felt so good his lips over mines, they fit perfectly.

I felt one of his hands on the back of my waist and the other on the back of my neck. My body didn't answer, only my lips. I just let it be.

Jaime gave me two or three short kisses before let me go. I didn't know how my back was over one of the walls of my chambers, I notice this when I saw one of Jaime's hands against the wall and beside my head, his other hand was still on my waist. He had me cornered.

"You correspond my kisses." He smiled as if he won something. "I will take that as a favor for the tourney."

This motherfucker…

His words angry me more and finally I could react, giving him a slap on his stupid face. The slap made eco in the whole room.

He let go my waist and took his hand, the one near my head, to the cheek where I slap him. "And that one too." He jested.

"I TOLD YOU NOT TO KISS ME AGAIN!" I spat furious.

"Let's make a deal-" I didn't let him finish because I began to hit him with all my strength. After several punches, Jaime stopped me by grabbing both of my wrists and hugged me, giving my back at him. "I said, let's make a deal." He muttered near my face. I could feel his breath over my cheek, giving me tickles.

"I can't believe anything you say." I said furious at him as I keep fighting to let go myself from his grip, but he was too strong.

"If I lose in any of the rounds of the joust, I will stop kissing you and flirting on you. I will let you to choose any husband you want, and the game will end. Just to let you know, I will be glad if you choose me." I snorted. "If I win-"

"You will lose, Lannister." I spat.

He didn't pay attention to my comment and continue. "If I win, we are going to celebrate my victory." I snorted again. "This includes kissing you and flirt on you every time I want until I have your hand."

"You'll never have my hand-"

"As I told you, the game will end only if I lose on the tourney. Are we agree?" I was still fighting with his arms. Can I trust his word? He's truly going to stop? "Are we agree, Lylian?"

"Fuck… I'm agree with that shitty game! Let me go!" I scream at him.

He gave me a kiss on my cheek before letting me go. "I love aggressive and vulgar women." He jested.

"Then get marry with a man." My sarcastic comment make him laugh. "Get out before I regret and call the guards, Lannister." I hissed.

"I will win and I'm going to have your hand." Jaime said before leaving my room.

Please, make him loose…

Oh… shut up!

*.*.*.*

What the hell did I do now that the Queen has summoned me?

I was relaxing myself drawing in my chambers when a stewardess and two Lannister guards told me to meet me with the Queen. I was already dressed and my hair was brushed, but the Queen wanted me to change my clothes into something more appropriate (in other words, to dress like her), and she send one of her servants.

I huffed all along the way to the Queen's solar, using a dress that it wasn't my style. It was a silken fabric red-yellow gown, long sleeves, and a yellow lace under my breasts. I hated the dress, it was hotter for me.

"Come in." I heard the Queen's voice through the door after it was knocked by one of the Lannister guards.

I stepped in with caution, the place has the same size of the King's solar, but the only difference was the decoration. The whole place screamed 'Welcome to the Lannister's solar. You want some gold? Let's begin with the negotiation.'

The Queen was in front of me, seated in her extravagant furniture. Over the beautiful and extravagant table there were beautiful cups, teapots, cutlery and small plates with sugar and cookies.

Tea hour…

"Your Grace." I greeted making my courtesies.

The Queen made an alluring smile. "Such a graceful entrance." Commented and she gestured on an empty seat by her side. "Come and sit, little wolf. Would you like tea? Wine?" she offered kindly.

"No, thank you." It was weird to see the Queen look and treat me with kindness. Every time she sees me, there was an icy and hard look in her eyes. "Can I know why you summoned me, Your Grace?" I asked once I was seated.

"Sansa is excited marrying with Joffrey, but you don't want to accept my brother's hand." Straight to the point…

"I didn't decide yet."

"Why so, little wolf? Many girls would kill to be in your place."

"But I'm not most of the girls, Your Grace. I would like to take my time to know better the man who I'm going to marry."

"Well, I have to inform you, little wolf, that my father wants you to decide quickly before the tourney. He can't pay for two celebrations and he wants to see cubs around the Rock as soon as possible."

"What?" I looked her shocked.

"Unless you want to marry with Loras Tyrell…"

"I mean-" I snorted still in shock. "My father and the King told me that I can have a plenty of time to choose my husband-"

"My father is not a patient man, little wolf. Or you marry with my brother before the tourney or you marry with Loras Tyrell. Or with another man."

What the hell is this?

Nobody told me that. Until now…

"What if I tell you now that I'm going to marry with Ser Jaime? In a few days it's going to be the tourney-"

"Don't worry about that, little wolf. I'll take care of it." The Queen tilt her head and smirked. Doing the same expression of Jaime.

"I-I need to think, Your Grace. If you excuse me-" I began to tell her as I was standing up, but she stopped my advances.

"I didn't finish, little wolf. We still have business to discuss." She said in a severe and mandatory tone. And I didn't like it for one bit… "Tell me, little wolf. You still have a maidenhead? It wouldn't be fit for my brother get married with someone who is… impure."

Is she calling me a whore?!

That's it, bitch…

Better to control yourself…

"I think our business is done, Your Grace." I hiss as I was standing from my seat. And again, the Queen stop my advances, but this time, she grab one of my wrist with all her strength.

"Careful, I'm your Queen." She warned. "As your Queen, you will stay and obey me." She hissed.

"I rather be killed right now, than obey your orders." I said furious. She began to fume for my comment. "If I'm still a maiden, that's not fucking business."

"Cercei!" I snapped my head to the door. Jaime was there in his Kingsguard armor with that intimidating look of his. I felt immediately, my wrist get free from Cercei's grip. "This woman is going to be my betrothed, and you are degrading her like this?" Jaime said swept into the room.

I was relieved when he appeared like a knight on the room, I was so close to get killed by that crazy bitch.

Her face changed completely; from the icy queen bitch, to a sweetest expression I have never seen from her. And I noticed how she was moving slightly far from me and Jaime, as if she was scared of her twin. "She didn't decide yet, bro-"

"You were degrading and hurting her!" Jaime shout at his twin sister as he was getting close to us.

When he was near me, I stopped him by grabbing his arm. Jaime look at me with those flaming green eyes. "Calm down." I muttered to him. His eyes softened a little bit.

"Come on." Jaime urged, putting a hand at my back, made us turn around and leave. I heard the Queen screaming at Jaime and hissing things, I didn't pay her attention.

As Jaime was taking me back to the corridors, I was enjoying his touch over the fabric of my gown. His touch was delicate but firm.

When we were very far from the solar, I stopped our steps. "Thank you for what you've done, but… Why you get so angry?"

His eyes weren't green flames anymore, they looked soft and sweet. As always when he was with me…"You shouldn't be treated like that. You are not a whore, Lylian." His voice was firm and strong.

"But I'm not a lady." I smiled sadly.

"I don't care." He shook his head slightly. His eyes were telling the truth.

Then I remembered what that crazy bitch told me about get marry with Jaime before the tourney. "Your…" Crazy sister… "Sister, told me that your father wants me to take a decision before the tourney." I muttered nervously. "She says that your father is not going to pay for two celebrations."

"Take your time, don't worry about it." Jaime said as he cupped one of my cheeks.

His eyes were fixedly over mines, they were looking at me with intensity. Jaime's touch was warm and I could feel a strange electricity that was going to my stomach, where butterflies went wild.

His cat-green eyes went to my lips and his hand went down slowly, until his thumb touched my lips and give a delicate rub over them, making that electricity got worse.

I saw how Jaime was getting close to me, but suddenly he stopped. "I should… escort you to your chambers." Jaime muttered as he was stepping away from me. Did he really has the intentions to kissing me? What made him stop? He wasn't like that…

Jaime was irresistible, I can't help that attraction I have for him. But that doesn't mean I will be easy for him. "Don't worry, I will go on my own to my chambers." When he was going to say something, I didn't let him. "I think I made you to skip from your Kingsguard duties and I don't need an escort, it is still daylight." I informed him. "Thank you." I smirked after saying this and left him there.

"Lily!" Jaime called and I turned to him. "I was going to say you look beautiful in red." He said with his stupid smile.

I rolled my eyes and snorted. "You're wasting your time, Lannister." I said before continue my way to the Tower of the Hand.

"I'm not wasting it!" I heard him behind me. "Don't forget about the game!" I rolled my eyes and growl upset.

Stupid arrogant lion…
