Chapter 7: Queen's Name Day
It was the Queen Name day. She did not was a big deal made out of it. All that she wanted was a feast where everybody can laugh eat and dace to all of their hearts desire. She was looking at the people that were doing just that and smiled. In all of her marriage to the King people were never this happy or this free. They were all scared that they will burn next. They were afraid to do anything that would seem out of line to the King. Stop Rhaella, those time are over. The King is dead. She looked at her son who was laughing at something one of the men said and smiled. She remembered when she gave birth to him. He came to this world calm very calm. The Maester thought that the babe was dead but he was not. When she took the little boy in her arms she saw her salvation. Her ray of hope and happiness and that is what he brought her. Hope for the future and happiness like nothing else in the world.
The Queen touched her stomach which was about to burst and smiled with affection at the little babe that was inside her.
"You never have to know the pain that your father brought to this country. Your will be brought up in peace and happiness and i will be there for you my sweet as long as the Gods allow me to." She said and looked at the celebrations and began to move to the music closing her eyes and enjoying the feeling if being free.
Cersei was looking at her brother with narrowed eyes. His eyes were full of longing and hunger like she never saw before and the worst part was that the look was not directed at her. He was looking at a beautiful woman with darker skin than hers and brown hair that was flowing as she was turning. Her eyes were as dark and mysterious as the night and her smile could heal any pain. She was the complete opposite of Cersei yet just as beautiful. Cersei narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms. She felt a surge of jealousy but she was not jealous for thing thing that she should be. She not not jealous that her brother seemed to move on quickly from her or that he was giving her looks that he never gave her. She was jealous because every man had eyes only for Elia. She was jealous that every woman was looking at her. Cersei knew that she was stupid but all tat she could thing off was the fact that she seemed to be overshadowed by that woman and she did not like it. Everyone was looking at her with a smile on their faces. Even the Queen looked at her like she was bringing the joy back into their life.
Now Cersei was watching how that woman ran to the people that were surrounding her and pulling them to dance and they complied. Everyone began to dance with her. She even make her brother dance who hated dancing like no one else and he did it with a smile on his face. Cersei scoffed and looked away but grey eyes caught her attention. Those grey eyes that she wanted to see all night. A smile just formed on her face and she looked down shy. She still did not understand the feeling that this man was making her feel. She never looked down because of a man. She always looked straight at them. When Cersei looked back up the look that this man gave her made her breath hitch. She was used to men looking at her with hunger and need but this man was looking at her with the same feeling mixed with love. This man loved her and it was all in his eyes.
Cersei forgot about the woman who stole the attention from her, she forgot about her brother and all the people. She did not want their attention if Eddard will look at her that way all she wanted was his eyes in her. No one else Eddard was coming toward her and Cersei's heart picked up. She wanted to touch him and dance with this man. He was coming closer never breaking the eyes contact. Cersei was almost jumping on the balls of her feet but then the King stood in their line of contact and Cersei cursed under her breath. At the moment she cursed him because he stopped her betrothed from coming toward her.
"Isn't she a beauty." She heard a raspy female voice behind her and she looked back and she saw the woman that stole her Queenship away. The woman was a real beauty when she looked at her up close. She had the palest skin and the darkest hair just like her brother. Her eyes were different than his. She had more silvery eyes yet still they had the same energy about them. They woman was looking at Elia Martel who was still dancing. She than looked at Cersei with a smile on her face.
"I feel like i need to apologize to you Cercei. You are to marry my brother and i did not come to introduced my self." She said and Cersei was shocked at her question yet she still did not say anything. She was looking at Eddard who was glancing at her while talking to the King
"I know you must probably hate me. I know your family was planing to marry you off to the King and i changed your plans but in all of my life i have never see my brother look at anyone the way he was looking at you." Lyanna said and Cersei looked at her.
"I do not hate you Lyanna. I though that all i wanted was to be Queen and yes i did hate you but i don't anymore." Cersei said
"Does it have to do anything with my brother?" Lyanna asked with a smile on her face and Cercei laughed at that looking on the floor.
"He does have a big part in this. I also feel the need to apologize as i have misjudged you and your brother." Even Cersei was surprised that she was so nice to this woman she supposedly hated.
"You probably thought that my brother was a brute and i was a whore. I really cannot blame you as the North has not got a good opinion in the South. But i will change that soon enough." Lyanna said.
"As it is your right, you will be the Queen." Cersei said and she was surprised yet agian that there was no poison in her voice.
"Queen. I still cannot believe what my life has brought me. I always wished i could wield a sword and go to wars and ride my horse all to my heart desire." Lyanna said with a dreamy look in her eyes and Cersei looked at her in wonder.
"it seemed we are not so different Lyanna. I always wished i could trade places with my twin and learn how to wield a sword. I did impersonated him quite a few times in my younger years. Later on it became problematic as i developed a female figure. If my father ever found out he would lock me up in my room." Cersei said with her own dreamy look.
"We are not that different it seemed and i would be very pleased if we could get to know each other more. We will be sisters soon." Lyanna said taking Cersei's hand in hers and squeezing it. Cersei looked at their hands and smiled.
"I would like that very much Lyanna. I only had brother and a sister would be a different experience." Cersei said and gave her a genuine smile. She dies not give them very often.
"I apologize for cutting in but can i still my betrothed." Eddard said with a small smile in his face.
"Well my dear brother i have never seen you smile so much when your around so many people." Lyanna said crossing her eyes and looking at her brother with an raised arched brow
"Well my dear sister its a celebration, why should i remain sad." Eddard said in a teasing voice and Cersei saw that side for the first time and she liked it very much.
"Yes its is a celebrations and the Dornish wine is particularly good is it not dear brother." Lyanna said with a smile and a knowing look.
"Yes it is very good. Now Cersei may i have this dance." Eddard said but before she could utter a word Eddard pulled her toward him and toward a crowd of dancing people.
Lyanna looked at the pair who were obviously falling in love yet they had no idea about it. She shook her head. They will find out soon enough. Lyanna looked at the Queen who was talking to the King and she smiled at her betrothed. She was in love with that man and she knew it. She was counting the days when they can be united as husband and wife.
"You look beautiful Lyanna." She heard a familiar voice that made her cringe in disgust. She looked at the handsome man with the black beard and dark eyes.
"Greeting Robert. How are you this fine evening. I wanted to congratulate you on your marriage. I hope she makes you happy and you make her happy." Lyanna said with a tight smile. They both looked at the beautiful willowy woman who Robert called his wife who was smiling talking to one of the handmaiden.
"Yes my wife is beautiful and men envy me yet she is not the woman i love." Robert said looking at Lyanna and she had to look away.
"It is time for you to begin to love her. She will be yours for the rest of her life." Lyanna said through greeted teeth.
"I would have made you happy Lyanna. You would be able to stay in the North if you married me. You would be close to your family and your home. I love you more than he could ever love you Lyanna." Robert said standing to close to her and holding her wrist tightly. It was causing Lyanna pain.
"Your hurting me Robert." He did not loosen the grip but he tighten it. It would leave a mark on her skin.
"We still have time Lyanna. We can run away, far away and we can be together. Please Lyanna run away with me." He said with a crazed look in his eyes. Lyanna was very scared now. She looked around the room in panic but no one seemed to pay attention to them. No one was looking at her and no one was there to help her.
"Robert let me go now or i will scream. I am to be married to the King. You are married to another. Do you want to shame your wife." Lyanna said forcefully.
"Who cares about that. We can hide and we can be together. I love you Lyanna. I need you and you will be mine if you want this or not." Robert said holding her wrist so hard it brought tears to Lyanna's eyes. There was no one to help her.
"I apologize for the interruption but your wife does not feel well My Lord." A soft female voice said and Lyanna closed her eyes and thanked the Gods. Robert let go of her wrist and turned around and looked at the woman.
"Thank you my Lady i shall go and check on her.." he said and left.
"Are you well My Lady?" The woman said and Lyanna opened her eyes and saw Elia Martel looking at her with concern in her eyes.
"Yes thank you for your concern." Lyanna said trying to sound calm
"You do not have to play brave with me Lyanna. I know when a man is to forceful with a woman. I had that situation one to many times. Is your wrist feeling well." Elia took her wrist and looked and poked around it.
"I am well thank you for coming when you did. I was scared he will do something inappropriate." Lyanna said taking calming breaths.
"Your wrist is not broken however it will be bruised. If you do not want anyone to find out about it than i suggest you wear long sleeves. If you want i can get my brother to make him regret what he did to you." Elia said looking around for Robert to see if he is near.
"That will not be necessary. I am well now now and it would not be wise to stir up attention now. Thank you for the offer." Lyanna said squeezing Elia's hand.
"The world is a dangerous place for a woman and that is why we have to stick together." Elia said and both girls looked at the celebrating people. Elia was thinking for a way to get back at that man who did not know boundaries.
The celebrations was reaching its ending, the morning was upon them and most of the guest were drunk or passed out. In a dark corridor of a castle two figured were linked passionately in a kiss.
"I have waited all night for this. To kiss you, taste you and feel you. Why do you have such an effect over me." Jamie asked his wife to be as he needed to breath.
"I cannot answer that question for you my love. I am just an innocent woman." He said and began nibbling on Jamie's chin making him groaned. Jamie hitched Elia's leg on his hip and began grinding into her.
"You are not innocent my dear. You are not even a maiden are you?" Jamie asked kissed her neck making her moan lightly.
"No my love i am not a maiden but neither are you. Besides i will promise that our wedding night will be very interesting. Now my love come for me. I want you to come with my name on your lips." Elia said pushing back onto him. Jamie groaned yet again and put his face in her neck. He was so worked up and with Elia's smell around him and he little moans he was done in minutes. He tried to be quite but came groaning Elia's name.
Jamie looked at Elia and her eyes as dark as the night was clouded with lust and Jamie could not help himself. He reached between the fold of Elia's dressed and touched Elia's core. He put two fingers into her making her gasp in surprise and hit her head on the wall moaning softly. He was working on her making her moan but he wanted her lips so he bough her face to him. Jamie was kissing her, tasting her and exploring her mouth and eating her moans.
Elia was close, he could feel in from the trembling of her body and the movement of her hips. She wanted it his movements to be faster he touched. She wanted more. Jamie put another finger into her stretching her more giving her more. Elia was at the verge of exploding with pleasure. She kissed him harder biting his lip a little to hard because she tasted a metallic taste in her mouth and he dug her nails into his scalp. Jamie did not care about the pain he liked it but he looked at the woman who is becoming undone in his arms and he could not get enough. He stopped kissed her just so he could look. She opened her eyes which were glazed over and bit her lip to stop from screaming and she exploded. Her whole body trembled with the force of her orgasm and from the aftershocks. Her lip was bleeding from the force put on it. Jamie could not get enough of the view. It was simply the most beautiful thing he has seen.
Elia calmed down and she was gasping for air. She was amazed how hard she had climaxed. He had never climaxed as hard as she had now and she did not not where that come from but she will not complain about it. She looked at Jamie licked his fingers that were inside of her and closed his eyes moaning. She swallowed loudly.
" You taste so good. I cannot wait to taste you from the core." Jamie said in a raspy voice.
"The wedding is not that long away Jamie." Elia whispered touching Jamie's face
"i cannot wait that long. I need to be inside of you now Elia. You are not a maiden so what difference does it make. I want you Elia. I need you or i will not crazy." Jamie said and Elia looked at him and narrowed her eyes. She moved away from him and began to straighten out her dress.
"That is not the point Jamie. Yes i am not a maiden but i want to do it right. I want us to unite as husband an wife. I still believe that marriage is sacred and man and wife need to unite only after the vows. That bring prosperity in the marriage." Elia said and looked at Jamie with a sad look and continued " I am not like the Lady's here in Kings Landing Jamie. I will not stand if you bed another woman before or after our marriage. If I hear that you did something to dishonour me i will make you pay. I have many bird and they like to sing." Elia said and Jamie scoffed.
"Another woman? What are you talking about Elia. I cannot thing about anyone else. It is like you have put a spell on me. I am yours from this day" Jamie said and Elia gave him a beautiful smile. Jamie took her head in his hand and kissed her smiling lips.
Both heard the footsteps not far they looked in the direction.
"Someone is coming. We need to go." Elia said but Jamie kissed her again not caring about the person who might see them. Elia was pushing Jamie away but he kept kissing her back. Elia laughed and pushed Jamie away fro good this time.
"We have to go Jamie. I will see you later today." Elia said pecking Jamie one last time before running away from him, her dark hair flowing behind her and her dress flowing around her legs making her look like flying.
Jamie put his hands behind his head and shook his head. He was completely under her spell.
