Chapter 17
Cersei had a very busy day. She woke up earlier than Ned. He was still sprawled and half naked. Cersei stood up and put on her robe. She walked through the passageway and found that Dany was awake and poking Jon.
"You mustn't do that Dany." Cersei said and picked the small child. She grinned at her and clapped her hands. Dany made sounds. She was far more vocal than Jon.
"Yes sweetling, you are awake." Cersei said and called for the nursemaids for their feedings. Cersei thought that it was time for the nursemaids to stop. Tyrion was fed until he was eight months. Jon was now seven months and Dany was about eight as per Ned's calculations.
The past few months were not easy. Father and Jon Arryn were united at last. They thought having Dany as a princess was a mistake. They tried to make Ned change his decision but it was not to happen. Dany was their princess. Cersei could tell that she was Ned's favorite. Cersei smiled at the young girl. Daenerys was beautiful. She was also a very good baby, smart and so precocious.
"My Dany girl." Cersei said as she sang to her. Daenerys had beautiful violet eyes. Rhaegar's eyes. Sometimes Cersei liked to imagine that she was her little girl with Rhaegar. It made her very happy. Her father called her a foolish child for letting Dany and Jon in her home. Cersei blamed Ned and his strong mindedness.
Jon was legitimized and crowned heir apparent during an open ceremony in front of the noble houses. Oh, how they claimed that Jon had her lips and her bone structure. They all cheered for him, all hypocrites. She showed Jon to the crowds who cheered. Cersei smiled at them. They all cheered for the small boy. Cersei believed them before she believed the lords and ladies of Westeros. The smallfolk loved them. It did not matter that Ned worshipped his Old Gods while she subscribed to the Seven. She actually stopped believing in the Gods when her mother died. The Lords and Ladies of Westeros brought the fact that Ned was a non-believer and that his children would be godless. Jon Arryn and her united for a rare time. She made a show of being the devoted Queen. There were assurances that the Seven would be upheld. Ned could not care any less.
The Westerosi appeared to love their young monarchs and the crown prince was said to be strong and handsome. Daenerys did not get the same love Jon did. There were some security threats, people claiming that the last dragon should be put to the swords, burnt like so many of the other children. It was a stroke of genius to proclaim her a Stark. It diminished the threat and placed Cersei as the new "Mother." Cersei became the virtuous and pious queen whose love for the damned and the less fortunate filled her with joy. Ned instead was seen as a loving and merciful king who welcomed a young and abandoned child. It was perfect and even Jon Arryn had to bend his will.
"You'll have to make them love you sweetling. I know you can." Cersei whispered as Dany's nurse came in and fed her first. Jon was much slower to wake up. He blinked at her and mewled.
"You are so lazy, a lazy little wolf." She said and picked him up. He looked blearily around and rested his head on her shoulder. He had beautiful black locks. Cersei loved to play with them.
The nurse finished with Dany and she gave her Jon. She had Daenerys back on her arms, "How about a nice bath pretty girl?"
Dany clapped her hands again and again, "yes, my sweet."
One of the maids prepared the large basin. Cersei liked to bathe the children herself. She cleaned Dany first. Dany liked her water very much. She giggled and clapped the water, "you are such a happy babe." She said and blew raspberries on her belly. Dany laughed uncontrollably. Cersei smiled and dressed her. The nursemaid placed her on the bed surrounded by pillows, lest she fall.
She bathed Jon and also blew raspberries on his belly. He grabbed her hair and pulled, "not nice Jon. The boy laughed and heartily. She placed him near Dany. Cersei then dismissed the maidens and put them on the floor. They had beautiful toys, Cersei played with bright blocks. Ned came in an hour later.
They established a routine. Ned played with them for an hour and then went to council meetings all day. Cersei wrote her letters, read letters from Tyrion and Jaime and then helped with the distribution of food and medicine for the people in the city. There was also an orphanage and a place for people to find survivors from the fires. There were missing people and children waiting for parents. Cersei helped every day. It was good for the people to see her as kind. They needed to be loved for their reign to work.
She watched as Dany crawled, her little face determined to climb the mountain that was Ned Stark, "papa, papa, papa." Ned looked at her and then at the little girl on the floor, "papa, papa."
He picked Dany up and swung her up. The girl squealed in the air. She then hugged him and let out a high pitch giggle.
Cersei grinned, "so are you letting her call you papa?"
Ned kissed Dany's torso, "why wouldn't I? Dany is my little princess."
Cersei nodded. Jon crawled around and picked up and red block. He was about to put it on his mouth, "no, no. You'll choke." She said and took it away.
Jon frowned and cried. Ned dropped to the floor and went for him. She was about to hit him when he made a face at Jon. It was a silly face. She laughed and Jon followed. Dany joined the fray and started laughing.
Ned let them play for a bit and then looked at her, "how many meetings do you have?"
"Five, six, and then petitioners." Ned said while taking the red block for himself.
"I didn't have these growing up." Ned pocketed it.
Cersei shook her head, "neither did I. Tyrion had them made, he sent them last week." Cersei thought of her baby brother all by himself in the Eyrie.
She plead with him and father to have him come to King's Landing. It was not father who refused. It was Tyrion. He said he liked living in the Eyrie and that he was learning different things. He said he would visit soon.
"You can make him come to King's Landing. Ned, please." She then plead with her husband.
"Cersei, of course I cannot. He is not of age, and subject to your lord father. I cannot undermine his authority because you long for him." Ned defended his decision to not intervene. Cersei was upset and did not visit his quarters for a week. Ned however found ways to ingratiate himself. He looked at her and whispered what he wanted to do to her at night. He would be thoughtful and ask her to the gardens when he had time and he would also ask her opinion on things. Ned consulted with her about laws and she forgot to be angry with him.
Ned stood up when a Kingsguard came to get him. She did not remember his name. Cersei had to say most of them were faceless to her. "I will see you later for supper." He said and kissed her lips. He kissed Jon's forehead and kissed Dany's forehead too.
Cersei played with them a bit more and then they napped. Cersei read her letters. One from Jaime,
Dearest sister,
I hope you are well. I am afraid I have some bad news. Lysa has killed herself. She jumped out of her window. The twins are being taken care of by their nursemaid. Lysa's health declined steadily after Joanna and Minisa were born. She refused to see the babes. The story is that a fever took her. She was buried last week. Cerse, I need you, I need your help sister. I am rather sad. I didn't love her but I know have the girls and I don't know what to do. Father insists on a second marriage, a mother for the girls. Please Cersei come home.
Your loving brother,
Jaime.
Cersei read the words and knew she had to go to Casterly Rock and help him. Jaime would not ask for help and not write the truth in a letter if it she was not needed. She had to go there and get Jaime some help. She began to make arrangements that afternoon. She would need to have the babes ready for the journey. It was only appropriate that she would go to her family in this time of pain. Cersei made sure it was all settled by the evening. She decided to not take a nursemaid with her and start the children on solids only. She put Jon and Dany to sleep and joined her husband on his solar. They usually had dinners there.
There was something off about his demeanor. Cersei tried to make conversation but Ned barely responded.
Cersei had to tell him that night. She was to leave the following morning, "Jaime wrote today. Lysa is dead. She killed herself."
Ned frowned. He knew, there was no surprise in his eyes, "who told you?"
"Varys." Ned replied,
"Of course, him and his little birds." Cersei said. "You have to be careful around him. He is not to be trusted."
"I am sure he is not, no one in this forsaken city is to be trusted and now you want to leave me." Ned said with a growl.
"My brother needs me." Cersei replied primly.
"I need you here. I am your husband." Ned argued back.
Cersei looked at him, "I will be back before you know it. I will write to you every week but I need to go to Jaime now."
Ned shook his head, "No."
Cersei frowned, "Ned, I have to be with my brother. He's lost his wife, he has two young girls. I have to help him for a bit."
"So, you would leave us, your husband and children?" Ned asked her.
Cersei shook her head, "I am taking the babes. It would only be for a few months."
Ned looked impossibly hurt, "so it is only me you are abandoning. Very well my queen." He stood up so fast his chair almost fell. He left her.
Cersei stayed back dazed by his reaction. She smiled then, she was important to him, so important that he did not want to let her go. She smiled. This was more than attraction and desire.
Cersei went into his quarters. He was forcefully undoing his leathers, a tantrum from a king. A good king. A king that was needed in the capital.
"I don't want to fight with you Ned." She said came close to him. "I don't think you understand my bond to my brothers. They were all I had for so long. Jaime is the heir, but I am older. I need to help him now, just for a bit." She was in front of him. He was seated on his bed.
Ned looked at her and kissed her belly, "Cersei, I need you here. You make sense out of all this for me. Don't leave." He held her. Cersei picked up her skirts and straddled him.
"I will only be gone for a few months. Nothing more, that goes by quick. Ned, you'll be so busy you won't even know I am gone." She said and kissed his lips.
He kissed her back forcefully. Cersei slowed him down. "I could go with you." He said as he pulled her dress away from her. "Why do you have to wear so many things?" He said as he undid the bodice and unlaced her.
She kissed his ear, "you can't leave the capital. They all need you here." She said and bit his lobe. Ned massaged her tits and lowered his face.
"I could go. I am the king." He scraped his teeth over the valley of her breasts. Cersei ground up and down his lap. She giggled and grabbed his hair, "you are, which is why you cannot leave."
Ned frowned and turned her to the bed, "get rid of the skirts." He said as he lowered his breeches. She went back to his lap and ground over him. Ned aligned himself and entered her. Cersei smiled and started to fuck him. Ned smiled at her.
"You look so good fucking me." He told her. Cersei bit his lip. "Ned, you feel so big."
Ned moved her hips rapidly; the friction made her moan loudly. She grabbed his hand and placed it on her button. Ned touched her there and continued to move her over him. She contracted around him and milked him until he was biting her neck and licking the bite.
He kissed her once more. Cersei kissed him. "We will be back very soon my king." She said. Ned kissed down her middle and used his fingers and mouth to make her explode once more.
Cersei felt her whole body shaking but Ned held no quarters and fucked her once more before placing his hands on her cunt and falling asleep.
