Intro: Dany learns the truth on WHO Sansa is to her Hand and isn't at all Happy that he kept such an important part of himself from her Tyrion continues to help his wife though her trauma and also starts wearing his wedding band again
Dany just looked at her Hand, she could not possibly hear right, her hand is married to the Lady Stark, this was a man she trust to help advise her in all matters of state, yet he did not divulge the matter of his status to her. "Just why did you never mention you were married?" asked Dany. "It was my privet life which I like to keep privet and for the fact I had not heard from MY lady WIFE for over a year I had no idea what had happened to her since she escaped Kings landing."
"Until NOW" said Dany an edge to her tone.
"Yes, until now" said Tyrion.
"I have a feeling you know why she asked for Sanctuary," said Dany
"I do now, yet I will not say what, that is Sansa's business not mine, my Priority now is Sansa and making sure SHE is SAFE, well and adjusted to her new life here" said Tyrion, Dany's eyes narrowed she had a feeling whatever Sansa wanted or needed would take president over ANY ORDERS she would give Tyrion, and she did not like that one bit.
"Well if your Lady is to stay here then I'd like to get to know the wife of my Hand" said Dany who made a move to stand up "NOW your Grace no, she is resting and she is not comfortable with others she loves our nieces and nephew she knows them but does not wish to see anyone as I told Jon don't go asking her, why she wanted Sanctuary let her tell you when SHE is ready, " said Tyrion. "Are YOU giving ME Orders?" asked Dany "Yes, I'm protecting my wife from everyone and everything until she becomes the Sansa that I used to know.
"Careful where you tread Tyrion, I gave your wife Sanctuary and I CAN take it away" said Dany, Tyrion face twist in anger "are you threatening the safety of my wife your grace because if you revoke her Sanctuary, you will lose me as your hand, for I will NEVER AGAIN be with out my wife where she goes I will follow."
With those last words he bowed turned and left the Queen's chambers leaving a shocked Dany behind. . He was fuming as he made his way back to his wife's chambers how dare she threaten Sansa like that, Sansa vulnerable right now and needs me more than the dragon queen he was lost in thought until he heard Sansa scream.
He ran as fast as his short legs could carry him and hurriedly knocked three times unlocking and opening the door. When he entered her saw, Sansa huddled in the corner be side of the bed, Tyrion closed the door it made a sound that made Sansa jump. Looking up he saw her scared blue eyes, he crossed the chamber and over to her, "I'm sorry for slamming the door so loudly Sansa," said Tyrion. He helped her stand and get back under the covers, "Tyrion will you join me?" asked Sansa patting the spot behind her;
"Are you sure?" asked Tyrion.
Sansa just nods. So, he makes his way around the bed walks up the steps and sits back against the headboard, Sansa rolls over to face him and sits up. "What woke you my dear?" asked Tyrion "was it a night mare about HIM, is that why you screamed."
"Yes it was a nightmare but not about him but about this" she said looking down at her stomach I dreamed that the baby turned out to be a girl but just like him, she was sadistic cold-hearted and abusive, Tyrion I don't think I can love it, the baby might be innocent but he/she is just a reminder every single day about what Ramsey did and how it came to be if this baby survives I will forever have a part of a man I want no part of, I'm also terrified it will have some of his DARK and twisted traits I can't go through it again " She suddenly sobbed and her body began trembling
"Sansa will you allow me to call upon a healer to look you over," Tyrion asked, trying to take her mind off her nightmare. Sansa looked at him wide eyed a fearful look in her eyes, "I saw everything, and I just want to know how to take care of your injuries and you need to have a check up about your pregnancy to see how far a long you are," said Tyrion.
"About my injuries are you also referring to if I will one day be able to have MORE children?" asked Sansa. "Yes, if you wish as we do not know the extent of your internal injuries from what he did," said Tyrion.
Sansa closed her eyes and nodded, "alright I'll let a healer look at me but only IF you stay with me while he looks me over" said Sansa, "the Dragon queen herself could not pull me away from you" Tyrion comments
"Speaking of her how did your meeting?" asked Sansa.
"Not good she is deeply upset with me for withholding my marital status she wants to meet you and when I told her no she threatened to revoke your sanctuary," Sansa looked at him stunned and scared he could tell she was terrified of getting sent back to the north, " I told her if she did that she would lose ME as her Hand I also told her that I will NEVER AGAIN be without you and wherever you go that I would follow."
Sansa's eyes softened and she gave him a rare small smile, SHE surprised him by reaching over and taking his hand, he looked down at her small hand atop his own then looked up at Sansa, "thank you Tyrion for stand up for me against your own queen like you did, it shows me that our year apart has not changed you as it did me you are still the kind gentle protective man I remember you being,"
"You Sansa are still the same as I remember you being the only difference is, SHE is hiding within you and one day I hope I can see HER again," he then remembered his wedding band, pulling the chain out from under his duplet he unclasped the clip and slid the ring off before handing it out to Sansa. "Care to do the honour my Lady wife?" asked Tyrion. Sansa looked at his wedding band then at him and nodded so she took the ring a simple 'silver' ring.
"Silver I remember you wedding band being Lannister gold" said Sansa. "It was but I had it remade into a stark silver, to symbolise you and your northern winter roots as you have your ring showing the Lannister you became but still being the stark within myself on the other hand was never accepted by my own family so when I left Kings land on my travels I met a black smith and explained that I wish to have my wedding band remade into a silver ring instead of a gold band to symbolise becoming a stark by marriage and to honour your family" Tyrion explained.
Sansa looked at him and gave him a smile but with tears shining in her eyes, Tyrion could tell these tears were ones of Happiness, still smiling Sansa swallowed the lump in her throat, "thank you Tyrion" she says and placed the now silver wedding band back on her husband's ring finger.
"Back where it belongs" said Tyrion.
The couple smiled at one another only to have the silence broken by Sansa's stomach, "OK that sounded like a lions growl or maybe even a wolf's" said Tyrion, "you know it was so loud I would say it's a hybrid of both" said Sansa, before the couple looked at one another and burst out laughing at how strange that sounded.
But for Tyrion it felt amazing just sitting here on the bed talking with his wife like any old married couple and having something suddenly happen as mundane as the growl of a stomach which brought about laughter from his wife and even some light enter her eyes something he had not heard or seen since the pair were discussing sheep shifting the lords who had laughed at him on the day of their walk in the gardens back in kings landing.
"When was the last time you ate my dear?" asked Tyrion. Just like that the light in her eyes disappeared and she cast her eyes downward, "I couldn't keep anything down while on the ship, which might have been for 2 reasons IT" she said pointing to her stomach, "or the rocking back and forth of the ship that would make me feel ill," said Sansa.
"Were there any other times dear that you never ate?" he asked her, Tyrion felt Sansa grip his hand, he used his other hand to rub the back of her hand that was still in his grip and made soothing noises.
"HE use to withhold food and drink from me if I didn't do what he wanted there was so many times like with Jeffrey where I wanted to use the daggers on him but I was afraid he'd over power me and either kill me with them or use them as a tool to torture me with, there would be no way I would ever be able to look at them with out thinking of him if he used the gift YOU gave me against me, they and my wedding band were the only comforts I had in that hellish marriage" said Sansa softly before leaning into Tyrion and crying into his neck.
He stopped rubbing the back of her hand and whispers in her ear, "May I Sansa" he felt her nod and heard her sob "PLEASE hold me Tyrion" she felt the warmth of his arm as he held her and felt his hand rubbing soothingly up and down her back. Meanwhile Sansa held fistful of his doublet and cried her heart out; Tyrion stared at the wall his green eyes burning a hole in said wall.
That prick that vile disgusting sadistic prick not only does he torture rape and impregnated Sansa but now I hear he starved her to. Calming himself a bit he gently pulled Sansa away from his neck and cupped her face, "Sansa look at me" he saw Sansa look at him her blue eyes glistening with tears, "I promise you I WILL make that sick son of a bitch pay for what he's done to you, you maybe a lone wolf in this but you have a pride of lions behind you and in the near future I hope a trio of dragons flying above you."
Sansa again gave him a small smile.
"I'm going to see a kitchen maid about some food for us alright and go find a healer as well, like before I'll lock the door behind me and knock three times alright" Sansa nodded.
"Tyrion, did Missandei give you any needle or thread along with the linen so I can make my clothes?" asked Sansa; "of cause my dear they are on the top of the linen you will be using to make clothes." Said Tyrion.
"Thanks Tyrion."
With that her husband left her chambers, Sansa got up off the bed made her way over to the linen laying on top of the trunk and brought it back to the bed set it down sat down, took up the needle and thread and a piece of the linen and started on making her first gown. She suddenly stopped when she heard voices outside her window setting her walk aside, she stood up and made her way towards the balcony that was in her room.
Stepping out she walked to the edge and saw that her room overlooked the royal garden and saw her family, Myrcella with her uncle/ father sir Jamie and Margery and Tommen taking a stroll, Myrcella stops as she spots Sansa high above, Sansa saw Myrcella's big happy smile.
"Aunt Sansa" Myrcella cries out with joy waving to her Aunt, Sansa returns the smile and waves back in return, Jamie looks up to see his young sister in law, "good day Lady Sansa would you care to join us?" asked Jamie.
"Another time my lord I'm waiting for Tyrion's return and am in the middle of sewing myself some clothes" Sansa calls back.
Jamie nods, "very well we look forward to your company" Sansa nods and backs up into the room out of their sight Sansa sighed she REALLY misses her nieces and her nephew so much, she so desperately wanted to be down conversing with her family but was weary about being around Tommen and Jamie.
Bolton you bastard you've ruined me so much I'm afraid to be around my male relatives Sansa fumed her blood was boiling, Sansa was so angry she felt like throwing something, so she did she picked up her pillow and throws it across the room watching it as it hit the wall. She was so lost in her anger that she never heard the three knocks or heard the key turn. Tyrion knew something was wrong the moment he saw her, "Sansa my Lady what is wrong?" asked Tyrion, gently reaching out and taking her hand walking her over to sit on the end of the bed.
"I am, I'm wrong Tyrion, Bolton ruined me, I heard voice coming from my window so I went to see and saw our family walking in the gardens below, Jamie asked if I'd like to join them I declined for 2 reason 1 I was waiting for you and did not want to worry you and the other is I'm afraid of Jamie and Tommen. That bastard has made me afraid to be around my Male relatives I mean you saw me flinch when Jon leaned in to speak to me today but I Miss, Myrcella Margery and Tommen SO much"
Tyrion nodded.
"If you want to dear, we can go join them after you've had something to eat and a Healer has looked you over" Tyrion suggested
"I'd like that thank you," said Sansa
Tyrion gave her a smile, just then there was knock on the door, Tyrion turned to Sansa to reassure her as she was still very jumpy, "that will be the servants bring us our food" he then turned to the door and called out, "come in." Moments later a servant walked in with their meal and asked where they would like it, "over by the table please" said Sansa. The Servant placed it on the table curtsied and left Tyrion took Sansa's hand and led her over to the table. He pulled out her chair for her and pushed her, in when she sat down, before climbing up onto his own chair.
Sansa looked at all the food on the table, "whoa I'm unsure if I could eat ALL this" said Sansa who began picking from the tray and placing it on her plate, "eat as much as you can but take it slow do now hurry your body is not use to food from what you have told me" said Tyrion who began piling food onto his own plate. Once his plate was full, they picked up their utensils and began eating.
When lunch was over Tyrion had cleaned his plate however when he looked over at Sansa's he saw she had only cleared Three Quarters of her plate however given that she had sometimes been starved by her brutal false husband Ramsey and on top of the pregnancy sickness he was amazed she could clear that much. "How are you feeling after your first real meal in months?" asked Tyrion who slowly reached a cross the table and lade his hand in front of hers knowing how jumpy his wife still was when it came to a mans touch he'd reach out half way but then leave it up to Sansa on whether she wanted the contact or not, "it was good but I have a feeling the food won't stay in my stomach for long" said Sansa who placed her hand in her husband's own, she smiled when she felt his short stubby fingers curl around her hand, Tyrion called for the servants to take the food away, after they left Tyrion still holding Sansa's hand got off the chair.
Right at this moment all Sansa wanted to do was curl up next to her husband and hear him read to her but knew she couldn't as the healer would be here soon to examine her Tyrion saw her looking a little restless.
"Sansa are you all right my dear?" asked Tyrion. "No, I'm not" Sansa admitted, Tyrion knew what was bothering her and walked her over to the chaise he stood in front of her taking both of her hands in his and looked deep into her eyes, "I'm not going anywhere Sansa I will be with you every step of the way."
Moments later there was a knock on the door, Tyrion saw Sansa take a deep breath and squeeze his hands, before he called out.
"Enter"
The Door open admitting Missandei and a woman, "My Lady this is Cannenta," said Missandei who saw Sansa's shocked look, she must have thought the healer would have been male, "Your husband thought you'd be more comfortable with a female healer," said Missandei," Sansa turn and smiled at Tyrion.
"Cannenta this is Lady Sansa Stark, Lord Tyrion Lannister's Wife" Missandei informed the Healer, Sansa saw the woman's confusion and smiled, "Stark is my maiden name I have never used my married name as it brought unpleasant memories yet now I think I best get use to it as I've put those bad memories behind me and my Lannister enemies are no more" said Sansa
Sansa saw her Husband's surprise yet pleased look out of the corner of her eyes
"So how would you like me to address you as my lady?" asked Cannenta,
"Lady Lannister or Lady Sansa will be fine which ever you feel comfortable with," said Sansa
The healer nodded
"Thank you Missandei that will be all" said Tyrion.
The woman left closing the door, "Cannenta before you are...start your examination I need to explain a few things everything including my Pregnancy happened after I escaped kings land it was NEVER at the hands of the only man, I consider my husband Lord Tyrion. It was at the hands of a monster who I was forced to enter into another Marriage with by someone who I thought was a trusted friend of my family, the wedding night my Innocence was stolen I never consented the marriage was a hellish nightmare" Sansa Finished yet both Cannenta and Tyrion saw the green color on her face Sansa wrapped an arm around her stomach.
Cannenta walks forward and brought her over to the bed while Tyrion grabbed the bed pan and held it in front of her just as her lunch regurgitated on her, as he held the pan with one hand Tyrion rubbed her back and smoothed away her hair from her face with the other. Sansa looked at Tyrion and weakly said "told you my lunch wouldn't be staying in my stomach for long" she sighed and pulled away from the bed pan, "I'll get you some wine to wash the after taste away and empty this I'll be back in a bit" suddenly Sansa began panicking, "whoa, whoa easy dear I'm not going to be long" said Tyrion. "I promise lady Lannister I will not start your Exam until lord Lannister returns," said Cannenta seeing at first hand at how the trauma Sansa had gone though had affected the Lady.
"True to his word Tyrion returned a few moments later, Sansa sighs and let's herself relax Sansa took the goblet of wine and took a few mouthfuls swirled it around and spit it into the bed pan before taking a big gulp of wine but this time swallowing it. "Lady Lannister could you remove your night shift then I can start my exam," said Cannenta. The Woman saw Sansa start to tremble, Tyrion saw it to and took her hand, "Sansa look at me" he tells her softly, she does, and he saw tears in her eyes, "I'm here every step," said Tyrion.
Sansa nods takes a deep breath and looks over her shoulder checking if Tyrion is also ready to see the damage AGAIN, he nods and grabs her hand. Finally, Sansa lets her night shaft fall Cannenta's eyes widen the sheer Volume of damage to the lay's body was unfathomable steeling her emotion so to not make her patient or husband uncomfortable then they both clearly were, she began inspecting the injuries on Sansa body. Noted that some were deep and needed to be clean and snitched she noticed the Bruises as well after a while she asked Sansa to lay on the bed for the internal exam. Tyrion got up on the bed and sat by Sansa's head, "just keep looking at me Sansa" Tyrion whispered soothingly
After the Exam Sansa got dressed and curl up on the bed facing away from the healer Tyrion kissed Sansa's hand got up off the bed and walked Cannenta to the door, "So how is it?" asked Tyrion. "My lord your Lady wife's injuries are the worst I've even seen I stitched up the deeper wounds on her body I have a cream here that will help with the tightening around the scars.
"The baby?" asked Tyrion, "your wife is 2 month pregnant but I'm worried about her mental state I advise you to find a mind healer its not good for her to have her trauma bottled up like this her internal injuries are bad the bruising and tearing is bad worse than I've ever seen to be honest I'm not sure if her body will be able to carry this child to full term also until this baby is born and her body internally is fully healed I can't say weather or not she can have more kids and if she can weather or not she could carry them to full term."
Tyrion sighed "Thank you Cannenta."
The healer nodded and bowed her head before leaving, Tyrion turned and walked back to his wife who lay on the bed, Sansa looks up her eyes are dull and her body suddenly shivers, "Tyrion can we go somewhere I don't feel like staying in my rooms right now" said Sansa softly. "Would you like to go for a walk?" asked Tyrion.
Sansa nodded and got up off the bed smoothing out her night shift she made her way over to her niece Myrcella's gowns and picked one out before heading to the change screen and changing into the gown before stepping out. Tyrion saw how skittish and uncomfortable she was baring her scared arms and walked over to the clothing before walking back over to her, Sansa smiled when she saw the shawl in his hand and knelt before him so that he could drape the shawl over her shoulders and back and arranged it to cover the full length of her arms. Taking her hand, he helped her to her feet she slipped her feet into her slipper shoes after taking a deep breath and for the first time since she arrive, Sansa ventured out of her chambers.
