News of our betrothal spread through Winterfell and most of the North. Robb and I spent more time with each other getting to know each other. I learned the history of Westeros and I taugh him about the world I was born in and cursed to. It was a little over three weeks till we were to be married. I was wondering about the culture difference with Robb.
"What do you mean there are no wedding rings?" I asked Robb.
"We don't use rings. We wrap our hands in a ribbon, say our vows and drap our cloak over the wife to show that she is under our protection." Robb stated while watching me pace. He was staring at my outfit which for today it was a light pink and black long sleeve patchwork pencil dress.
"Well how about we combine our traditions. We get rings, we both wraps each other with our cloaks and we say the vows." I said while thinking about a design for my cloak.
"Why am I being wrapped in the cloak as well?" Robb asked a little put off.
"You said that the cloak is symbolic to protection and I want you and others to know that I will protect you just as you protect me." I told him as I made a cloak made of black cotton with a golden rose and dagger in the middle with golden trim appear.
"It isn't a woman's place to protect her husband." Robb's time period was showing.
"Robb dearie I may have been born with a vagina but you know what? I am stronger than any person alive so if I take a hit that would kill you then so be it. I am the Dark One and no one in this realm will dare hurt those I love!" I growled at his while making a fire ball appear.
I noticed that I had a fireball and threw it into the fire place. I took a deep breath and looked Robb in the eyes. He stood there determined and a light in his eyes.
"You love me?" Robb asked.
"That's what you took from that? Of course I love you! I wouldn't marry you if I didn't, hell I wouldn't even find a way to bind ourselves so I would never outlive you if I didn't love you. We may not have known each other long but for a Dark One time means nothing." I explained and walked to him. He opened his arms and hugged me tightly.
"We will combine our traditions to show the world we love each other." Robb told me while looking deep into my eyes.
"Thank you Robb." I started but stopped when he leaned down to kiss me. I have been waiting for this moment for a long while.
Being a Dark One meant that the social norms of others didn't truly apply to us but to respect Robb and his ways I held myself back. But when his lips touched mine I was lost to the sensation. His lips were soft, softer than I thought they were going to be but his kiss held such power that is was surprising.
He kissed with such gentle dominance that could only be inherited by someone who needed to show others the true power to rule. I kissed back instantly moaning into him. He grabbed the back of my head and tilted me the way he wanted. Good god can this man kiss. An before I could press forward I heard someone open the door.
"Well I seem to be interrupting something." An arrogant Theon Greyjoy stated.
"Greyjoy if you don't leave this room now I will cast a spell on you so you can't get your cock up." I growled at him.
Theon and I were ok but he was annoying from time to time. There were times that I wish I could just rip his heart out and make him do what I want. I truly didn't like how he treated Jon. Jon was a good man and he didn't deserve the bullshit from Theon or Catelyn.
"I just wanted to let you know that your father wants us in the tiltyard for training." Theon stated with a smirk on his face.
"I will be there in a few minutes." Robb told him and waited till Theon was gone.
"Rose I do love you and we will be equal in all things going forward." Robb told me and kissed my forehead.
"You better believe dearie. I want us to be on even playing ground so when you get the dagger you better not use it against me." I warned him.
"I would only use it to bring you to me if you were far away from me." Robb explained as he got ready to leave.
I nodded and watched him leave. When he was gone I teleported to the town not far from Winterfell. I was on the look out for a blacksmith to help me make a ring. I knew I could make it with magic but I wanted to have a little bit of his world and mine.
I found the man I was looking for.
"Hello I would like you to make something for me." I said to the weathered looking older man.
"What ya want?" He said gruffly.
"Well I am in need of a ring to be made." I replied and was about to show him the measurements but he interrupted me.
"Look I don't do jewelry for no pretty lookin whore" He said rudely.
I arched my eyebrow and was about to kill him but I restrained myself and just chocked him a little bit.
"Whore or not I have good gold to use to pay for your services but now I'll just take all of my lovely gold with me." I said and released him. Maybe another blacksmith will do me some good.
I teleported to King's Landing. I used a simple location spell to find someone who would do the best work they could provide me. It lead me to an old man and a younger man.
"Hello young man can you help me?" I asked him as I approached
"Ofcourse My Lady. What can I help you with?" Asked the young man.
"I need assistance in making a ring for my bethroed. I have the gold to pay you." I showed him my large bundle of gold coins and gold straw.
"I would be happy to My Lady. What would you like me to make for you?" The young man asked me.
"I want a silver ring made for a man with a wolf in the band and the eye needs to be a sapphire. I will provide the sapphire I just need you to make everything else." I explained and showed him the design and the size of Robb's ring finger.
"That is a lot of work My Lady. How quickly will you need me to make it?" He asked.
"A month and a few weeks, an don't worry I can provide the silver if need be." I stated and deposited some silver ores on the table nearby with my magic.
"How wha?" He started.
"Magic my dear boy now focus on what we are doing here. I figured that if I provide the silver and the sapphire it would be easier to make." I explained to him.
"I can do that for you My Lady." The young man stated.
"What's your name kid?" I asked him.
"Gendry My Lady" he answered.
"Rose Gold at your service. Just call my name when you need help or if you are done. I will be there in moments." I told him as I handed him a large bundle of gold string and gold coins.
"I'll be seeing you soon Gendry. Stay safe kid." I said as I teleported back to Winterfell to continue my research on making a portal to my father.
"Don't worry daddy. I'll find you again." I whispered to the book I was reading. I wasn't going to loose anymore family members.
