Rhaenyra was numb as she sat there reading her twin's letter. Viserys was dead. He went crazy and attempted to kill Dany and her unborn son, Drogo did right in defending his blood from their crazed brother.
"Love? Are you well?" Robb asked worried, Rhaenyra held no love for her brother but he was still her blood.
"I don't know," she murmured rereading the letter with a shrug. It had been mixed feelings at receiving the message. Dany apologized about it but she didn't have a choice. Robb didn't know what to do or say, she was upset when Bran was hurt but now she was nothing.
"He was your brother," Robb tried as he wanted to help.
"One I have never met nor has expressed to talk to me like Daenerys," she spoke as she put the message down she felt the tiny tugs on her slip it was Rhaella who trilled and chittered up. "I still haven't told her, like we agreed," she looked to him as he sighed.
"You can't. You don't know your twin or her people, it could also get snatched. Hasn't so far that you know of," Robb warned as she nodded.
"I know I refuse to tell her. She has no reason to know," Rhaenyra stills remembered her dreams vaguely, multiple dragons and two different Queen chants. It alarmed her. Taking a small sip of ale as Robb kissed her temple and snagged her drink, downing the rest.
"It's alright Love. Respond to your sister, talk to her," he ordered. Wanting her to keep in contact with the other Targaryen.
"I will," she smiled as he hugged her while detaching Rhaella to allow her to dress. Robb never realized the new weight of the dragon until now as he needed two hands to fully hold her. But she aided him in climbing to his shoulder to cling as he allowed her to glide off to the bed with her sisters when he walked over. He watched as Rhaenyra undressed, it had been a fortnight since their loss, he's refused to touch her anywhere she was uncomfortable with. The last few nights he'd been gently massaging her breasts before she'd return the favor by relieving him of his own problem. He wished that she would talk about it a bit more to him, he understood that it was unbearable for the mothers, Robb had questioned if they should tell Catelyn what happened if she had any help but Maester Luwin claimed Valaena was Rhaenyra's best chance, she understood the pain better having been with Rhaella through it all.
"Where did you go?" Robb had been completely lost in his own thoughts he hadn't realized his wife had called him, asking if he could help her dress when she tried to find a simple dress. So she approached him naked and he did not react, making her think that he was lost in thought. Gently cupping his face she leaned up and pressed the softest of kiss to his lips. He woke when he felt the small pressure and she pressed another is when he kissed back, softly running his hands down her sides as she moaned. Thinking it was pain he stopped but her irritated growl told him otherwise.
"Nothing, I was just thinking of our family," he told half-truthfully. She smiled softly as he kissed her forehead gently. "How are you?" he asked curiously.
"Fine Robb. I'm better and curious. You still owe me a ride to the spring," she smirked as he grinned. Knowing it was when Bran fell and his promise to make sure they came back alive and okay. "I'm giving the girls to Maester Luwin, Grey Wind will no doubt stay with them if we tell him and you meet me by the Weirwood tree?" she asked as he gulped, nodding. "Good," leaning up she pressed another kiss to his lips as he moaned softly.
"I don't think I can wait that long," he hissed as she grinned.
"Oh you can Lord Stark, I want to spend time with my girls and you'll have me soon," she smirked as he glared.
"Evil creature," he growled as she giggled before watching him dress to leave her as fast as possible. She bit her lip in anticipation before calling for Baela to help her, when the maid arrived she was pleasantly surprised by the request before grinning with evilness in her eyes, making the other nervous.

Rhaenyra had spent the morning with her dragons before getting ready for her ride into the woods, Baela smirked. She was nervous, rarely thinking about this stuff in public as she worried about the people finding them. But the young woman wanted to show Robb she was better and felt like it out in the open.
Carefully she laid a fur and already started to undress before tying her cloak back on. She loved the hot springs here and would practically live in the waters. Rhaenyra gently sat down and waited, wanting to gauge Robb's reaction when he sees her, her hair was loose and resting around her as she sat. Feeling her heart throb in anticipation, she nearly leapt out of her skin when she heard a noise while listening to Corlys graze a bit away from her, she wanted to keep an eye on her. But Karn's head eased her as Robb also came out with a small grin on his face.
"You had me worried for a moment," she laughed as he smirked.
"I wouldn't risk you being out here by yourself," he eased. Effortlessly dismounting from Karn and tying him to Corlys who perked up.
"I would hope not, what kind of husband would do that?" she asked softly, eyes watching his movements as he approached her.
"A reckless one. But now my sweet wife I wonder, what are you wearing underneath that cloak. I noticed your dress beside Corlys," Robb asked, Tully eyes dark with lust as he watched her stand gracefully. Eyes on him at all time, with a desperate look. Carefully undoing the tie her cloak fell which showed her bare body to him as his eyes traveled down instantly making her grin, knowing he was still interested in her.
"Why nothing, My Lord Husband," she said in the softest voice while he swallowed, carefully she approached him as he cupped her cheek. "But I have missed your touch," she admitted with a small look as he groaned before yanking her into a heated kiss while undoing his clothing. She helped in undoing his trousers as they kept eye contact, Robb's hands abandoned his shirt to cup her hips as she gasped softly. While his hands smoothed up and down her skin she continued undoing his pants before roughly undoing the shirt as he started to bite her neck, her own lips, bruised and red, latched onto his ear. Robb's hand went down to her ass as he ground against her bringing out a moan from the girl, their only barrier his pants. She could feel his cock and brought him back in for a kiss as his other hand cupped her head, fingers tangling in her hair as he nipped her lips. Soon she was able to get him completely undressed and as she was, making her groan softly at his body. She hasn't been able to lay with her husband for near a month since her bleeding. She's missed his touch.
As they lay on the furs Rhaenyra arched her back when his lips trailed down her chest, he circled her nipples a few times before roughly sucking on one as she groaned. Holding his head to her breast, one of her legs wrapped around his waist as he ground against her center. She was in heaven as was Robb when he felt her wet slit before the head of his cock pressed against her clit making her hips jerk. "Gods," he hissed as she whimpered. "Your wet," he groaned, not being able to wait. Ever so gently he eased his way in as she tensed, it was a pleasant stretch, sighing once he was fully in the hilt she wrapped her legs around his waist as his lips found her neck as she gripped his hair. "So tight," he moaned in delight as she smiled herself, enjoying the pleasure he brought out when he pushed in.
"Come on Robb, faster," she demanded as he growled, abandoning her neck his lips latched to her right nipple while his hand messed with her left as Rhaenyra groaned, gripping his hair and the furs beneath them. He quickly obeyed her request though as her head hit the furs instantly when his hips started to smack against hers louder, he was able to hit her sweet spot that would make her cum soon. She tightened her legs around his hips as he bit her nipples harshly before she dug her nails into his back. "I'm close Robb, so close."
"Come on," he moaned against her bruised lips when he reached up. "Come, My Sweet Lady," Robb growled out as she tensed and jerked, he thrust a few more times before stilling and squirting his seed in her as she gasped and shuddered. No pain, all she felt was euphoria as she kissed Robb deeper and rolled them before rocking back against him, she refused to stop.
"We're not done," she grinned as he smirked, hardening again before she sat back on him bringing another moan out of him as she closed her eyes. Clinging to his hands that held her hips before he brought her back down for another kiss as her moans started to get louder.
XI
(King's Landing)
Ned Stark was now in the dungeon as Sansa had sent out a letter to her brother and his… wife, they'll come to King's Landing to bend the knee or risk war. But rumors had started to reach King's Landing about her surviving a fire, but something else that she couldn't understand. Sayings that an actual dragon lived among them. 'Simple smallfolk minds, they put her with the wolves rather then her own dragon kin,' Cersei frowned before taking a drink. She's been trying to get rid of Rhaenyra Targaryen ever since she left here a babe. Robert saw her as no harm after talking with Ned, unlike her brother and sister across the Narrow Sea, which was the start of his downfall, but Cersei knew she'd pose a problem since the Targaryen's children could overthrow her family. 'She will die,'Cersei determined as she left her chambers to talk with the council.
XI
(Winterfell)
Rhaenyra and Robb were grinning as they entered the courtyard before spotting Maester Luwin reading something with a frown. "Maester Luwin?" Robb called out dismounting as she did the same, allowing their horses to be taken, Rhaenyra worryingly held onto Robb's hand.
"My Lord, My Lady," he requested them to follow him inside to a table where Theon and Baela sat around eating. "This was sent from King's Landing by your sister, Sansa," he claimed as Robb took it, he hasn't received word from his family in weeks and it worried him. But reading this made him sick as he recognized Sansa's handwriting.
"What My Love?" Rhaenyra asked worried, she was concerned with his quietness.
"'Treason'?" Robb asked confused as Rhaenyra snatched the piece of paper when he looked to Maester Luwin, distraught. "Sansa wrote this?" he asked, not believing it.
"Her hand-"
"But not her words. I know your sister's words anywhere," Rhaenyra interrupted as she scoured the note for any other wording. "Ned and the King were best friends," she finished, showing Theon to read as well with a horrified Baela.
"How could anyone think Lord Eddard would hurt the King they were best friends," Baela claimed as Luwin frowned himself.
"The King is ordering you to come to King's Landing to swear fealty," Maester Luwin claimed as his lady froze.
"Joffrey puts my father in chains now he wants his ass kissed?" Robb asked with a snarl on his face.
"Robb," Rhaenyra warned.
"This is a royal demand, My Lord," Maester Luwin joined in warning his lord whose eyes suddenly shifted, he knew what would happen should the boy refuse. "Should you refuse-"
"Oh I won't refuse. I'll go to King's Landing," Robb interrupted the maester who frowned. "But not alone, summon my father's bannermen," he demanded making Theon and Rhaenyra look to Robb alarmed. Theon gave the note back to Luwin when he asked for it with a calm look.
"All of them My Lord?" he asked wanting to be sure.
"They've all sworn to my father have they not? To protect him?" Robb asked as Maester Luwin nodded.
"They have," he agreed.
"Now let's see what they're words are worth," Robb spoke as Rhaenyra gently took his hand.
"Yes, My Lord," Maester Luwin nodded before leaving as he prayed to all the Seven.
"Are you scared?" Theon asked as he stood, hand resting against Rhaenyra's upper back while he looked to his best friend's free hand. When Robb raised it as they all noticed it shaking.
"I must be," he answered trying to stop it.
"Good, it means your not stupid," Rhaenyra commented as her husband smirked at her, eyes all knowing before they listened for the ascending ravens taking their messages to the Northern families.
"What will we do?" Baela shakily asked as she thought of all the bad that could happen.
"Prepare," Robb spoke as they were silent.
XI
Rhaenyra was sitting at her desk with Rhaenys crawling all over her shoulders. She was writing a letter to her twin, not extending that she was leaving but she might not answer as often.
"Dany, I wanted to tell you before anything else. I don't blame you for Viserys death, he should not have threatened you or your son. But I must also share that I might not be able to answer your ravens as fast. I wish your Khalasar luck in their raids. Love Rhae," Rhaenyra carefully sprinkled it and waited for the ink to dry. Robb sat and watched as she rolled it and sealed it, giving it to Edrick who took off, clutching the message like a raven.
"Do you trust that boy with everything Rhae?" he asked suddenly as she paused, having started to pull the golden hatchling into her lap.
"Yes I do," she claimed, holding Rhaenys closer as the hatchling trilled and chittered to her mother, enjoying the stroking she was receiving. "Why?" she asked confused.
"Because I want you to choose your personal group that will be with you throughout the war," Robb announced as she stopped and turned, shock written on her face as he grinned.
"I am coming with?" she asked cautiously as Alysanne crawled into her lap as well.
"I would like you too. I feel like you would be better out there with me rather than sitting here in Winterfell, with the girls. But you can stay here if you want-" he was stopped by Rhaenyra, swiftly getting up and leaving the startled babies on her chair before kissing Robb, showing her gratitude in his thinking for her want for revenge as well.
"I would go with you to the ends, My Love," Rhaenyra spoke, quickly straddling her husband's lap as he brought her in for another kiss.
A few hours later found Rhaenyra walking through the yard of Winterfell. Rudy behind her, he was of course going as her guard, when she brought up Edrick he gave a positive response, the boy knew their lady better than most other then her handmaidens. Baela already agreed on going as did her mother, where their princess went, they went with her. Coming to the brothel she called out to the keeper as she entered, the woman was an older whore but still retained her beauty. Addy smiled at seeing her lady.
"Lady Stark, a pleasure. What can I do for you?" she asked, this young woman has given the girls' children jobs and made sure food would be sent to them in case something happened.
"I was trying to find Edrick and Tury, are they out today?" she asked.
"Tury received a good amount the last few clients so yes she took Eddy out for a treat. To the Northern side of the market," Addy spoke, remembering perfectly where her girls go in case of an emergency.
"Okay thank you," Rhaenyra swiftly left as the men looked her up and down.
"You amaze me with how confident you are when you are around these places," Rudy spoke out as he looked out for Edrick.
"I keep a knife on me at all times Rudy, for that reason in particular," she revealed as he nodded.
"Right," he smirked before spotting the laughing boy. "There he is," Rudy pointed out as she nodded and called out to them.
"Milady," Tury greeted, since she was not always around the lady she used the lower term unlike her son who was always within the lady's presence.
"Tury, how are you today?" Rhaenyra asked as she joined in walking alongside the woman.
"Well enough. Is something wrong?" she asked worried.
"If Robb leaves I am going with him, but I was wondering if I could take Edrick with me. I want your yes or no though," Rhaenyra requested as Tury paused.
"You are going to war?" she asked worried for his safety.
"Possibly. But I would be able to protect him until he learns. Do I have your permission?" she asked as Tury watched Edrick and Rudy bond over small toys.
"So long as he is protected you have my permission, My Lady," the whore spoke making her lady smile and nod.
"Thank you," she thanked the woman who nodded back.
XI
Osha froze when she came across the red hatchling coming into view, she had been warned by Maester Luwin and Theon both that the hatchlings were starting to roam the halls more with their mother, they might snap at her.
"Worry not child," the maester's voice came out as he was seen walking with the other two closer, the blue one continuously made noise as though soothing. "They will not harm you, by themselves possibly. But hopefully they treat me like their mother," he hoped as Rhaenys purred looking up to him while he spoke. "Rhaella though, is another story," he spoke as he eyed the growling hatchling who watched the wildling with caution. "She will get the chance to know you," he claimed as he continued on while Rhaenyra followed. Rhaella only stopped growling when she came into view, instantly she tried to climb up her mother's skirt before being pushed back down.
"Hello Osha," Rhaenyra greeted the new helper who swallowed. The young girl had a commanding presence and with the presence of dragons, knew exactly who she was.
"Milady," she greeted slurring as the dragons trilled. They continued on with their work while Rhaenyra continued to Rickon's room. The angry boy was throwing things around in his room while Maester Luwin took the hatchlings. Carefully Rhaenyra entered the bedroom as the boy continued his rampage, thankfully Shaggydog was successfully confined to the kennel. But when the boy learned that Robb and Rhaenyra were leaving when the army did he started to have a fit alarming the siblings, including Bran. The second youngest understood and was a bit upset but knew they needed to go get father and the girls, Rickon didn't seem to understand that part. He just saw it as leaving him.
"Rickon?" Rhaenyra called as the boy stayed curled on his bed. "Sweet boy I need to you to look at me," she requested sitting where the boy had to roll over to her. He refused by staying on his side. "Rickon," she called firmer.
"What?" he snarled angrily as she breathed.
"I get that you are upset with us leaving, but we are going South to save your father and sisters. To bring them home," she spoke as Rickon frowned.
"But your all still leaving!" he yelled as Rhaenyra realized it was just because they were leaving the poor boy. "Father and Mother left and I will never see them again and now I'll never see any of you when you leave," he sniffed before lying down.
"I swear Sweet Pup, we will see each other again," Rhaenyra swore hoping she could keep this promise to him. "One day you will be able to fly with me," she reassured as he looked to her confused before she smirked and pressed a kiss to his head. "Go to sleep," she requested as he nodded and gave her a final hug before lying down. Carefully tucking him in she looked to him, staring into his sad eyes. "All you can do is pray and hope, just like I do everyday. Your mother did for Bran while he slept, and they answered her," Rhaenyra requested as Rickon nodded, eyes falling shut to sleep. Watching a few more minutes she stood and quietly left so he could continue to sleep. She jumped when Robb came from nowhere as she laughed softly. "Jerk," she hissed with a smile as he laughed.
"How is Rickon?" he asked softly, slightly worried about going in himself.
"Angry," she spoke as he sighed. "Ned and Catelyn both left now both are unable to return home," she claimed as Robb sighed.
"And now we will be leaving as well," Robb finished as she nodded. "I will talk with him tomorrow," Robb announced as she sighed.
"Lord Cerwyn will be the first to arrive you know that," she claimed as he nodded.
"He'll be here in first light, the raven claimed he already was having his wife and son make sure everything will be attended to before he left," he revealed as she hummed softly. Together they made their way back to their chambers, Grey Wind had apparently gone to look for the hatchlings. When Rhaenyra made her way back to their chambers, she noticed some things already packed and put away. "They're preparing with ease," he revealed as she looked down.
"Valaena knew this would happen. Didn't she?" Rhaenyra asked as she got ready for bed, undoing her braids as Robb helped by untying her dress. Offering her, her slip she gently readied herself for bed, preparing herself for the arrival of the lords and possibly ladies if some are staying at Winterfell, Robb mentioned some of the children might stay with his brothers. Crawling underneath the furs she watched as Robb finished undressing for bed himself. He laid down with a tired sigh while Rhaenyra instantly covered him up. He smiled as she laid her head on his shoulder while pressing a kiss to her forehead.

End! How was that? And if I've never said it before thank you to all who have been following and reviewing as well I was happy to receive 9 reviews!
UnknownReaderHasJoined: Yes of course they'll have little ones. And sadly yes I do see Robb having as many children as he could with Rhaenyra. And because she was raised by the Starks, she also was raised by the same principles as he was. But yes I was going to wait a bit longer when the girls are older and with the Lannisters there will never be a safe time for them either. I just haven't decided if she should have twins or a single for the first time, the single is more common in stories though. But I know twins are common in her family as she is one herself.
ej101: I'm glad and yes so am I about it, but I know her family had hard pregnancies too. But yes she'll be going too, she'll be more help further South.
Guest: Ookaay? Is that good or bad?
NicoleR85: I'm glad! I always keep thinking he's someone who would always comfort her until he basically annoys her, he did. The two always try and support one another when they decide something, it'll show more later on.
