I own nothing
Roose and Ramsey stood outside one of their tents. They were arguing. They had a common enemy at this point.
"You don't understand, Father. Do you really want to call an Umber queen?" Ramsey stated.
"No, son you don't understand. She's a Targaryen; a dragon not an Umber. She may have umber blood in her. I remembered Lord Greatjon had younger sister. Lilliyan Umber, she caught the mad king's eye. Everyone was told that child died at sack of King's Landing. But she lived. I should have caught it sooner. She has all the features of Targaryen except for ice blonde hair."
"We should take care of her. Burn her like her father burned Rickard Stark."
"If you act like a mad dog they will treat you like one. She is too close to Robb. What would happen if the capitol learned of Targaryen in Westeros?" Roose commented.
"They will send men to kill her" Ramsey said.
"Yes, now we just have let things run their course" Roose said.
Ramsey nodded as he sulked off. He still was planning to burn her. Make her pay for every crime her family committed. She was bastard just like him and she was favored more all because her father was a king.
Raenera sat by a tent with her uncle and cousin. They were eating the noonday meal. Greatjon was telling her stories about her mother and Robb's Aunt Lyanna. She was laughing along with Smalljon as Greatjon started to laugh at his sister antics. She took a bite of her meal as Greatjon paused to take a drink. The sound of soldiers approaching caught her attention. It was enough to cause her to look up. There were three soldiers. She recognized two of the soldiers to be guards that guarded the rim of the camp. The other she did not know.
"Lady Raena Arryn?" Ser Alton asked.
Greatjon and Smalljon looked up at that point. Greatjon looked between the man Robb sent out with his peace terms and his niece. She looked unsure. She placed her food to side of her.
"It's Umber now" Smalljon stated.
"It's fine cousin." Raenera said placing her hand on Smalljon hand.
"Forgive, Lady Umber, I'm Ser Alton Lannister." Ser Alton apologized.
"Don't worry about it Ser Alton." Raenera commented.
Greatjon looked over to his niece. She just addressed the knight before her like a queen would. It was easy to see her with crown on her head. In his mind, it was her destiny even if she may never accepted that tile. It was clear as day that the people loved her. It left up to question if she was destined for the Iron Throne or just being the Queen in the North. Smalljon eyes met his father over his cousin's head. Ser Alton bowed his head to Raenera.
"I was asked to give you this." Ser Alton said taking off the scabbard.
Raenera stood up looking over to her uncle and cousin. She licked her bottom lip. She stepped over to Ser Alton. Ser Alton gave her a large scabbard with a large sword. She nodded her head as the soldiers all left. Leaving her standing there with a sword she could barely hold let alone wield.
"What is it?" Smalljon asked coming over to his cousin.
"A sword" Raenera said.
Raenera turned, Greatjon eyes went wide as he looked at sword. He rose to his feet, closing the distance between her and him. He asked her to give him the sword. She did let him taking out the sword out of scabbard. He said no words. But he looked in awe at the sword that he knew.
"I know this sword" Greatjon stated. He placed it back in its scabbard. He looked Raenera in the eyes. He placed it the scabbard back into her hands. After he did that he placed his hands on her face. "Fact every lord here knows that sword. That's Ice. Lord Ned Stark sword."
"Why would they give me his sword?" Raenera asked.
"I don't know but they did" Greatjon stated.
"What are you going to do with it?" Smalljon asked.
Raenera looked over to her uncle and cousin. She knew what she was going to do. She tried to lift the sword higher as she started to head off toward Robb's tent. Greatjon saw her struggling to hold the sword higher. He came over to her placing his hand on her shoulder. He nodded his head at her as their eyes met. He took the sword from her. She nodded her head back at him. They head toward Robb's tent.
Robb was making battle plans. He had been most of the day. He heard of Ser Alton return with his cousin reply. He knew already that was no. He did wonder what the gift from King Landing they giving Rae. But he knew he would find out in time. He studied the board once more running his hand down his jaw line.
"Forgive the intrusion Your Grace" Greatjon said coming into the room.
"I don't want to be disturbed." Robb growled not looking up.
Raenera and Greatjon came into the tent. She noticed Robb studying the board before him. She noted his meal sat near on another table untouched. She could tell he was stressed.
"Robb you are going want to see this" Raenera said.
"Rae?" Robb said looking up.
He quickly came around the table. His hands reached for Raenera's hands. She grasped his hands. Greatjon saw the look that Robb as he noted the look on Raenera's and Robb face. He could almost feel the chemistry between them.
"I thought you would be with the wounded." Robb stated.
"I was until noonday meal. I was with my uncle and cousin when Ser Alton arrived accompanied by two guards." Raenera stated.
Her one hand left Robb's and went to her necklace. Her fingers twisted it with nerves. Robb reached up stilling her hand. They met eyes. They stayed silence for a long moment. Greatjon coughed stopping them from locking eyes with each other. Raenera looked over to her uncle with smile.
"What did he have for you?" Robb asked.
Raenera nodded over to Greatjon. He placed the sword on the table. Robb eyes went wide as he looked at the sword. He pulled it out with wide eyes. He placed it back in scabbard. Looking over to Raenera, with shock written all over his face.
"My father's sword." Robb said shocked.
"Yes, Greatjon told me. I feel it only right that it is returned to you. It rightful owner with Ned passing" Raenera said softly the last part she had tears in her eyes.
Robb came forward cupping her face in his hands. He did not care that her uncle was in room. He pressed his lips to her lips. She melted into his kiss. Robb pulled away after a moment rest his head against her forehead. He brought her hand up to his mouth kissing them.
"Thank you Rae, this gift is better than any I hoped for."Robb said.
"I am glad it please you Your Grace" Raenera teased him.
"Robb" Robb said to her looking her in eyes
"Robb" Raenera said back quietly with smile on her face.
Greatjon came over to her placing his hand on her shoulders. He could feel the lust between the two of them. Raenera looked to her uncle with a smile. Robb shared a knowing with Greatjon. Robb knew after that kiss in-front of him. Raenera and Robb would never be alone together until if the gods saw it fit when they married.
