I own nothing
Thank you for all your support and reviews in response to my question. A big thank you to Boramir; Evaline101, and ZabuzasGirl for help through this story thus far.
Raenera and Robb stood near the burning corpses. Selaera landed moving over to her mother. Raenera petted her large head. She cursed her own anger and rage. She forgot to find out where Baelish stored all the money he siphoned off from the royal treasury. She knew it would take a lot of research and maybe even years to find it. Lord Royce and the rest of Lord of Vale approach Rae and Robb. They all dropped to knees in front of Rae.
"Queen Raenera, we all knew since you were a baby. We are certain if Lord Jon Arryn knew the truth that Robin was never his that he would have made you his heir. Before, Lord Jon Arryn died he set to name you Raena Arryn. You are the one true Lady of Mountain and Vale. The Mountain and Vale are yours by right. That is all the reasons we now swear fealty to you and your cause. Our lives are yours, our swords are yours, in life and death," Lord Royce proclaimed.
"Aye," All the Lord of Vale shouted.
Raenera looked sideways to Robb. Catelyn stood near Robb wore the same look as she did when Robb was named King in the North. Robb smiled at her knowing these men were some of the best fighters in all of Westeros. And they now swear complete loyalty to Raenera who they saw as the rightful Lady of Vale. Mace Tyrell came forward he was followed by Oberyn.
"You can see now that the dragons being ridden could be useful in battle with Tywin," Mace said.
Selaera roared causing Mace and Oberyn to back up. Raenera looked up at Selaera then back to Robb. She gave his hand a squeeze.
"If you want to use them battle you can. If you want to ride one of them in battle you can my love. But no one else," Raenera whispered to Robb.
"They belong with you, my Dragon Queen" Robb teased kissing her softly.
"Well my Young Wolf they are an asset to any battle," Rae teased back.
Robb thought about it for a moment. He looked at Selaera. He kissed the top of her head.
"Which is why I will take Visenya and Rhaenys with me but leave you with Selaera. No one will be ridding any dragon. They are still young and I don't think they accept any rider" Robb said.
Robb looked over at Raenera the unspoken words hung in the air. It was clear that Robb thought they would only accept her. Her purple eyes stared at Robb for a long moment. In her eyes that she knew one of them would accept him as a rider. You are their father. Robb pulled her close feeling their human children kick. He kissed her as all the men nodded. The Lords all started to head back to the council tent. Robb turned taking Rae arm walking back to the tent with maps. Rae let out a little yawn. Robb looked at her lovingly. He kissed the top of her head.
"Mother will take Rae back to our tent. I have much to discuss with these men," Robb asked.
"I'm not tried" Rae argued with a little yawn at the end.
"Sweetheart, our pups needs you to take it easy so please relax let me handle this, " Robb said.
Rae nodded her head taking Catelyn arm. Robb turned back to the men in the tent. He had a look on his face that reminded a many of that of a wolf. Rae watched as Catelyn and she walked away as Robb talked to each lord pointing out where he wanted them.
Catelyn was silent as they walked. It was hard for her to watch her sister die. But she knew that Robb had done the right thing. She was shocked that the Lords of Vale named Rae their Lady over another Arryn. Robin was sickly and would likely die. She knew that Rae would take care of him regardless if he was Baelish son or not. To her, he was her brother. The display back at Riverrun showed that Robin saw her as his sister. The older sister, that Lysa complained about in all her letters. It seemed despite Lysa not wanting Raena anywhere near Robin they loving relationship. Rae looked over at Catelyn.
"I'm sorry for your loss Catelyn. I know it hard to watch one of your family die," Rae said.
"Lysa has always wanted him. She gave her maiden head to him father made her drink moon tea. Lysa was never the same again. She loved him in her own way. You and Robb did the right thing. I could not watch Robb behead her. She will always be my sister," Catelyn said.
"There was no love lost between us. When I was young I tried to win her love. But when I learned the truth I gave up on having a mother. Until, I married your son and you became my mother. I've grown to understand the love between a mother and her children. I hope am half the mother you where to your children," Rae confessed.
"I have little doubt you will be a wonderful mother. I seemed you with Robin, Shireen and even Willem and Martyn Lannister" Catelyn told her.
"Go, pray for Robb and his army safe return. I will be fine," Rae said walking into her tent.
Tywin sat inside a tent near Casterly Rock. He would not sit inside his stone walls. Yes, he could but he would not. Not with the threat of Raenera's dragons. He stared at the war maps. He had to play his cards right. Robb had large enough army to surround the Lannister forces if he wasn't careful. He knew he was in losing position. But he would not go out alone. He picked the single dragon marker on board near the direwolf markers. He held the wooden marker over the flames. He would see the Dragon Queen burn one way or another. He looked up when Gregor Clegane walked in.
"Ser Gregor, I have a job for you," Tywin said.
Cersei was on her walk back to her chamber through the gardens. She hated the women that Tywin had chosen for her son. Joffery walked with Ilora on his arm. He seemed to be hypnotized by her accent. The guards were all falling for her as well. The worst was her once lover Lancel. Lancel wants Ilora for himself that was clear to Cersei. Cersei could not stand that Myrish whore with her infectious giggles. What was worst was Orella from Bravos. She was more interest in guards than Joffery. It was clear she saw Joffery as a boy and not a man and she wanted man. She was openly flirting with of red cloaks in the hallways of Red Keep. She was making a laughing stock out of Joffery. Then there was Melirah Vhassar that whore thought she was better than everyone. She at least showed interest in Joffery. Not that Cersei would ever let him chose that stuck bitch. She grated Cersei's last nerve. With her two unsullied guards who were constantly at Melirah side.
Cersei was thankful to reach her chamber. Her handmaiden quickly came over to help her. She walked over to table pouring herself a large glass of wine. A knock sounded on the door Cersei motioned for one of the maids to open the door. In walked Lyle Crakehall in with a young woman. She was dressed in a golden gown. Her hair was long and a pretty shade blonde. The young woman eyes were blue-green in color. The Crakehalls had married into the Lannister family a few times. She was beautiful but nowhere as beautiful as Cersei. Or Raenera thought venomously.
"Lady Averill Crakehall I presume," Cersei addressed her would-be good daughter.
"Yes, your Grace, I am honored to even to be considered by you and Lord Tywin to be worthy of King Joffery," Averill said sweetly.
Cersei motioned for Averill to sit with her. She was the first of the would-be brides. That understood Cersei place in the whole thing. All of the other disregarded her. Cersei did not know if Averill understood the great game she was now in. But she was the one out of all the would-be brides that Cersei would back. She would be a fitting bride for her lordly lion.
"I'm sure Joffery will be quite taken with you," Cersei reassured.
"You really think so Your Grace," Averill asked.
"Yes, little dove," Cersei said.
"It is horrible that this imposter is trying to take what is King Joffery's by right. The Crakehall has stood by the Lannister family since the time they were known as King of the Rock. Those Targaryen bastards took that from your family. Now this one is trying to do so again," Averill defended.
Cersei smiled at Averill. She looked over to her hand maiden. Then back to Lady Averill. Her clothes would have to be changed to compete with those foreign whores.
"Bethany, see Lady Averill to her chambers. Have her outfit with the best gown we have available. I will introduce to His Grace in morrow my little dove," Cersei commanded.
Robb was making his way back to his tent. He watched as everyone was preparing for the coming battle in their own way. Smalljon walked with Sansa arm in arm with Catelyn and Arya not far behind them. Evalyne and Jaime had retired for the evening after the war council was over. Ser Davos present Lady Shireen with craved dragon. Before, he walked away from camp. Oberyn and his men had left already for the battle. His men were to closed in one side of the Lannister force. Jaime would lead the other force at first light.
Rae was looking through papers when Robb came into the tent. She was dressed in her nightgown. Her robe was discarded on a bench near the table. Her free hand cradled her baby bump. Greywind walked over to Starlight lying down near her. Balerion was curled up by Rae's feet. Artemis and Athena were sleeping not far from Rae. Rae had worried look her face. She had ordered for one of her guards to bring all the paper work form Lady Lysa and Lord Baelish tent. She took a bite of lemon cake as read the merger. Robb walked over wrapping his arms around her middle. He started to kiss her neck.
"What are reading my love," Robb asked peppered kisses down her neck.
"I'm trying to figure out where Baelish left all the money he took from the royal treasury," Rae answered
"Rae sweetheart is really that important," Robb asked.
"Yes, the crown is in debt. To the iron bank Robb. If we plan to start fresh we need to pay them off. And that money would be needed to do that. If not we will have to melt down the Iron Throne to pay off that debt," Rae said.
"You really want to get rid of your family legacy," Robb asked taking the papers from her hands.
Rae sat down looking down. She never wanted the Iron throne. But at the same time, it was her family legacy. She looked up at Robb with tears in her eyes. Robb hugged her close.
"I do not know, I never wanted it but at the same time can I really take that legacy away from my own children," Rae said.
Robb sat the papers on the table. He lifted her into his arms and started to walk over toward the bed. He placed her down on the bed locking his lips with hers in a passionate kiss. He pulled away after a moment. He rested his forehead against her.
"Our children will know both of their family legacies the Stark and the Targaryen with the Iron Throne or without the Iron throne. Tonight for me let forget about the war. Let me just hold you," Robb told her.
"I love you," Rae said leaning up kissing him softly.
"And I you," Robb said returning her kiss.
An hour later Rae and Robb lay nude as the day they were born cuddle into each other arms. Robb was tracing little patterns on her growing baby bump. It was hard to believe in less than three moons turns he would be a father. She was cuddled into his chest let out a little content sigh. Robb kissed the top of her head pulling furs over their bodies. Rae slowly started to drift off to sleep in Robb's protect embrace. Robb looked down at her face. She looked so peaceful asleep. All the worry and stress was gone from her face. He wished he could see her like this always. But he knew as long as the game was a foot Rae would never be like this all the time. Except for when she was alone with him and his family and their children. He decided after they won. They would go to Winterfell. He would show her his home and his children where they came from.
"Your Grace" Maester Davith called.
"Robb, what is it?" Rae asked sleepily.
"Go back to sleep love I will handle this" Robb told her to get up from bed.
Robb tied a robe around himself before heading to the opening of his tent. He was greeted by Maester Davith with a raven letter. He took it from him walking back inside. Rae was sitting up with the furs around her chest.
"What is my love," Rae asked.
"I thought I said to go back to sleep," Robb teased.
"Robb, " Rae said giving him a look.
Robb came over sitting nex to her on the bed. He read the letter. With each passing word his eyes went wide. It told him that Bran had crossed over the Wall. Ser Tobas and Ser Torrhen were at the wall with his brother Jon. There was snow storm they would not be able to send rangers out until the storm passed.
"What is it," Rae asked noticing the look on Robb's face.
"My brother is passed the Wall," Robb told her.
"I'm sure he will be alright. He is not alone," Rae tried to reassure him.
Rae wrapped her arms around his neck. Robb took comfort in her embrace. This would kill Catelyn. Beyond the wall with wildling was not a safe place for anyone.
Question who should the riders of Daenerys's and Raenera's dragons. I know Drogon is Danys and Selaera is Rae's.
