Chapter rating: M

Rhaella shrieked as she approached her home, the walls she grew up in as she flew around them while the people cheered the King's return. Many silenced as they spotted the flying creature that left as a small hatchling.

"Maester Luwin!" Rickon called out in awe as he jumped multiple times before a guard, who he'd come to know as Ruff Waters, a Baratheon guard, stopped him softly. Bran watched as she flew, Meera and Jojen with him, the two had been skeptical at the dragons truly existing or returning back to Winterfell but to see one in real life. Bran smiled at seeing her, he wished to fly on one of the dragons when they were big enough.

"Easy now," the maester requested as he also came before freezing as he looked into the distance and spotted it. The large dragon he recognized as Rhaella. "It's…"

"The red hatchling; named from her mother right?" Osha asked as the healer nodded. Rhaella shrieked as she flew around the castle, she landed on the castle walls carefully before roaring at the surrounding people who gathered in awe at seeing the dragon; some for the first time, others seeing her after she left with her sisters. Rhaenyra ever so carefully dismounted from her dragon while sliding down to the stone as a guard helped her before the large creature purred, flying off as she went to go hunt.

"Welcome home, Your Grace," he greeted, bowing to her as many did so as well. Smiling softly she approached her good brothers and the maester, all whom watched the dragon with stunned shock.

"Surprising?" she asked with a small smile. Rickon latched onto her before she hoisted him up with ease, many watched with shock at her strength of holding a child seven as Maester Luwin embraced her. Chuckling as he held her.

"Oh, my sweet girl," he could feel the different in her now, along with her crown that laid around her forehead. "You have changed, you both have," he spoke as he looked to the dragon flying through the snow. Shrieking out in happiness as she flew around, the shouts of the gate caught everyone's attention as she lowered Rickon to the ground as she also embraced Bran who held her tightly. She smiled to the others as Hodor asked.

"Hodor?" he was curious.

"Your sister is with the children and Lady Stark," the queen reassured him as he smiled happily.

"Hodor." Bringing a smile to them all as the gates opened.

"King Robb has returned!" a shout called as the people cheered, many had spotted the queen landing as her husband trotted through as his wolf jogged alongside his stallion.

"Rhae," Bran gained the woman's attention. "I wanted to introduce you to Meera and Jojen Reed, children of Howland Reed," he spoke as she looked to them. The girl tensed and almost dropped into a kneel as her brother stopped her with a smile.

"She hates that," he commented as Rhaenyra lifted a brow.

"Do I?" she asked softly. Maester Luwin smiled at seeing her get to know the two young Reeds. "You are correct, Jojen. It's a pleasure to meet you both. I've heard a great deal about your father," she smiled as they both perked up. "You are welcome to stay within Winterfell for however long you please," she welcomed as they both beamed.

"Rhaenyra," Robb called, wanting to know she was there. He saw Rhaella riderless and had a small panic.

"I am right here," she answered descending as Hodor carries Bran down while the others followed. The crowd cheered as the pair stood together, Rodrik happily embraced both, he had not been able to see her when Rhaella had brought her to them. He had become stunned at seeing the once small dragon, a giant beast who now could carry a human.

"Where is Mother?" Rickon asked as Robb embraced him tightly.

"She is on her way, with the rest of the army, our sister and your new niece and nephew," he told him as many cheered and started talking. Excited about hearing the news of the King's children, many talked to the queen as she tried to excuse herself carefully. She was exhausted and dirty, wanting a bath as Maester Luwin spotted it instantly.

"Everyone," he called. "The King and Queen will answer any questions you have but they have just returned, allow them a moment," he instructed as they all agreed. The two leaders were very grateful about the man who helped raise them. "I'll have a bath drawn for you in your chambers," Maester Luwin spoke softly as Rhaenyra nodded in thanks as Osha walked with her.

"How have you been here Osha?" the queen asked as the wildling guided her along.

"Well enough, doing my best to keep the boys in line with the maester's help. But I am very glad you have returned," she smiled softly to the younger who chuckled herself.

"I will be even happier when my children are returned to me," Rhaenyra spoke as they entered her chambers, a bath already ready as an elder maid was seen pouring more into it.

"Your Grace," she curtsied giving a happy smile to her. Rhaenyra recognized every face within Winterfell at the order of Ned when she was a young girl, for her own protection in case a new face came from nowhere. "Now, let's get you cleaned," she ordered as the two helped strip her as she entered the scalding bath water, it soothed her muscles instantly. The maid undid her braids and allowed the hair to fall into the water itself as she took the cloth to start rubbing away the grim of her travel and the smoke left on her skin.

"Do you know where they are putting Yara Greyjoy?" she asked as the elder paused.

"In the top cell, where the guard sleeps, the others will be placed within the lower cells. As she is heir to her father, she is more desired to be kept alive," the woman informed as she braved the water carefully by grabbing the hair and wringing it as Osha rubbed an oil into it.

"Robb wants to know how she learned of our march," she spoke as they paused.

"You believe someone told her?" Osha asked as she paused while Rhaenyra drew her knees up.

"I do," she agreed as her fingers played with some of her loose hair.

"Love, you don't have to do this," Robb begged as his irritated wife walked down the stairs, Rodrik and Greatjon at their sides, Roose Bolton was leading them where he had her restrained.

"Yes, I do. She sent men specifically after, not to kill, but to capture. I wish to know why," she responded as the King sighed, knowing he could not stop her. When the Bolton man placed the torch in it's holder they saw Yara sitting there, unharmed aside from a hit she sustained when they tried to put her in the cell and she fought back. But she did not receive any unreasonable attacks, aside from being in the cell for a few days already.

"Well, well. The King and Queen in the North," she drawled tiredly. But suddenly perked up at the intensity behind the Queen's look. "Now that's a harsh look from a queen," Yara smirked.

"How did you know?" she demanded as the Greyjoy paused. She heard the anger and hiss behind her wording, the hidden threat should she disobey to answer or not give her the right information. Yara thought for a moment as the men present were positive she was going to deny answering before she opened her mouth.

"A healer," she answered as Rhaenyra's eyes widened. "Oh you know who," she nodded at the queen's reaction. "A young woman by the name of Talisa Maegyr, she claimed to be from Volantis" Yara finished as Robb cursed silently.

"The healer that disappeared from camp?" Greatjon questioned in confusion and anger.

"Yes," Robb spat out. Anger slowly filling his body as Yara noticed Rhaenyra's deadly stare still on her.

"Where," she demanded as Yara drew back from the ice in her tone, it was then that she saw the true strength in a Targaryen as her violet eyes pierced her own grey ones. Robb frowned realizing his wife will kill the woman but wanted nothing more than to see it happen now. The healer abandoned their camp and betrayed them the moment she could, Robb wanted her brought back to Winterfell for the judgement she'll face for an attempt on Rhaenyra's life but also his children. But he knew that his wife might not let her within their home, so they might hunt her down while after her.

"Think quickly girl," Greatjon prompted as Yara sighed.

"Our camp is not to far from Deepwood Motte. Within the woods, thing is they would've seen the fire from there," she offered as Rhaenyra understood.

"You can't go alone," Robb reminded before she turned.

"Then come with, along with the guards you choose," she offered her husband as he thought.

"Fine," he spoke. "Lord Bolton, Lord Umber and Lord Karstark you are to help Bran keep up until we return," he spoke as the three nodded making Yara frown.

"Your Grace?" she asked.

"We are after her, no one else," Rhaenyra spoke quickly, telling her she wasn't going to attack her kin so long as they don't attack her or Robb.

"Your people will retreat back to the Iron Islands or they'll be killed," Robb demanded as Yara scoffed.

"They'll no doubt find a way back, without a leader they would retreat back home," she reassured him as he nodded slowly.

"I am going to go find Rhaella," Rhaenyra spoke, Robb agreed. He would leave a note for his mother should she return while they were gone.

"Your Grace, you must not be hasty about this," Maester Luwin tried as he kept pace with her. But he knew she wasn't walking as fast as she could, she was listening to him.

"I am not going to do anything but hunt down a traitor who told our enemy where not only I, but my children were, Robb is going there as well," she answered as they made it out of the walls where Grey Wind was gnawing on a bone. "We will deal with her," she claimed as Rhaella landed in front of her mother, Rhaenyra carefully placed her knee into the crevice of her shoulder before hauling herself up and over the ridge of the dragon's back. Rhaella already seemed at ease with the pressure in her back now as she stood at full height, Maester Luwin backed away in shock at seeing her sitting there like a Targaryen centuries ago when dragons once filled the skies. Now she looked more like a northern dragon as the creature looked at ease with the snow fall, he smiled softly as she looked to him, eyes narrowed softly. "What?" she asked as he chuckled before slowly walking forward and offered his hand to Rhaella's nose as she sniffed him before purring content as he laid it against her scales as she closed her eyes, trilling softly.

"You truly have grown into a beautiful young woman, Rhaenyra," he commented as she smiled gently. "Never lose faith in yourself, or others you hold dear," he ordered as she nodded before he backed away, allowing her dragon to raise the red wings as the female realized she needed to fly. Rhaella lazily ran before pushing herself up and flapped a few times before righting herself into the air, as she circled Winterfell once, gaining a better momentum in the air. Rhaenyra looked in the direction of the white smoke that was once Torrhen's Square, Rhaella took her high in the clouds as they flew at a steady pace, her dragon was full and lazy but obeying her mother's request. Below she spotted Robb and a few others riding out below her as Grey Wind joined, but to her shock Shaggydog and Summer went with, the three brothers raced ahead of Robb, Grey Wind leading them, following the dragon above. His master long learned that should Grey Wind look to the skies, he's looking for the dragon he's seeking out. A shriek followed as the direwolves followed, streaking straight into the forest as Robb followed. His men were silent as they followed their King, understanding that the animals were their leads as the wolves followed the queen's dragon.

Rhaella flew as Rhaenyra looked around trying to spy the camp that Yara described, she fully expected the woman to have lied before she spotted it, it's smoke was white as she realized the Ironborn either left or were in the middle of doing do. Rhaella growled in spotting the settlement, she seemed to increase her speed as Rhaenyra urged her down by pushing into her neck as she hissed and dove. Her shrieks terrified the people as they fled but Talisa was nowhere to be seen, Rhaella snarled as she flew around the forest, avoiding the trees as she tried to spy their prey. Hissing, she roared as a howl followed, Grey Wind quickly cut off to the right as the horses followed, Shaggydog and Summer ran straight ahead as they caught the scent their brother was following. It was then that Robb spotted the fleeing figure, a woman's. Talisa.

"Hah!" he urged as Grey Wind raced his master. Growling, he snarled as he rounded the woman, cutting her retreat off. Bearing his sharp fangs as she screamed, crying as the direwolf's brothers appeared around him, snarling and growling as well, circling her. "Talisa Maegyr! You are hereby accused of treason and attemp of murder of the Northern Queen," Robb ordered as she gasped a few times with hysteria settling in. He and his men dismounted their horses

"Please, Your Grace," she cried, irritation settled into Robb as she sat her knees before the snarling from Rhaella landing behind her made her whip around to see the angry looking dragon glaring down at her. She stared in disbelief at seeing the queen riding her beast, she could not believe that she was still alive. She was quickly restrained by the men.

"Do you understand the consequences of your actions that you have done?" Robb demanded an answer as Talisa continued to cry.

"Answer girl. It will only be worse for you if you do not," a guard spoke as she glared.

"You deserved a queen who respected you more," she answered as Robb glared sharply.

"What do you mean, woman?" he asked quickly as Rhaenyra also listened as the dragon slowly approached the downed woman who tensed. "My wife is someone I care for and respect. I know she feels the same," Robb denied. "I do not know where you got these thoughts, but I know my wife better than anyone," he spoke as Talisa felt the tears threatening to fall once again. He slowly walked to his horse and mounted him, giving his wife a look he nodded as she did the same

before looking to the terrified woman. "Men, let's return to Winterfell," Robb ordered as the two understood as they mounted their own horses as Rhaella slowly stood up growling lowly. Once they had gone a distance, Rhaenyra looked to her.

"Run," was the only warning she had before the familiarity hit her ears. "Arghugon," (Hunt) as Grey Wind snarled when she screamed and ran as Shaggydog joined while Summer howled for a hunt when they raced after her. Rhaella roared as she knew the woman would die by the wolves as they were bigger and faster. Rhaenyra breathed a soft breath of relief when she realized that one of her enemies was gone before the growing dragon flew off as she headed home. The North was vast and wide for her, she knew the dragons would flourish here, they would roam free and hunt everything they could, elk and moose were common here along with bears. All were large amounts for the dragons who needed large quantities of meat to grow. And as Starks were the rulers of this land, no one would go after them. Rhaella hid high in the clouds as she flapped her wings softly, growling in content, the dragon purred as she spotted a large bear roaming the land for food before hibernation as the dragon drooled, Rhaenyra held on as Rhaella burned the bear, her flames weren't strong enough to kill it instantly though. But it was dead by the time Rhaella grabbed it with her talons and carried the dying creature off as the wolves followed, faces covered in blood. They followed the food being carried back to Winterfell as Rhaella shrieked, ensuring they'd follow her as she continued, but she was also calling out to her sisters. She naturally hunted for them a lot despite that they could hunt for themselves. But it was still hard for her to realize her sisters were not with her, Rhaenyra wondered if the dragon wished to go look for them. She hoped that they would return soon. Along with her own children, she had worried when she spoke with Maester Luwin about her breast milk, he reassured her that her milk would take months to dry up when she told him how old her children were. It did not take long to reach Winterfell once more as the dragon landed outside the walls, growling the dragon lowered her shoulder so her mother could climb down as Shaggydog and Summer whined to her, tails wagging as they spotted her once again. Rhaenyra smiled as she pet them, Grey Wind went to the bear and started to pull on it harshly, trying to yank some meat free. Rhaella held onto one piece as Shaggydog and Summer helped him they freed a giant chunk, they started to eat the cooked meat as the dragon slowly ate her food. Rhaenyra slowly walked to her feeding creature and softly patted her shoulder as the red dragon growled softly. Watching the four eat just for a moment she turned and looked in the direction Rhaella had flown from just days ago, hoping that her children would come home soon.

Rhaenyra was walking around Winter Town as everyone bowed to her, many greeted her with 'Your Grace,' smiles or happy looks as she passed by the soldiers and nobles who still remained within Winterfell.

"Rhae," Oberyn called out as he came out of the castle walls to spot the queen who turned, at her side was a Bolton set as her guard until Ser Barristan and Gendry return.

"Prince Oberyn," she smiled as he groaned.

"Child, just call me Oberyn. Much easier," he spoke as he walked alongside her. "And please do not worry for your children. Your daughters and my own will protect them, they will be home in your arms before you know it," he promised as she smiled softly. Rhaenyra prayed every night for her children to be returned as soon as they could. Robb missed them, he would lay curled with her as they missed the twins, he would talk about how Eddard would fuss before bedtime or Elaena would want to be rocked as she went to sleep, Rhaenyra just missed holding them. As they lay in bed that night Rhaenyra could not sleep, Robb beside her with his arm over her stomach, breathing peacefully. She slowly stood from bed as she got out from under his arm and walked to the window while looking out, it was getting darker and darker as winter approached. She could hear Rhaella, calling out for her sisters, no doubt trying to help lead them home. Rhaenyra sighed softly as she crossed her arms, watching as the snow started to gather. Her chest ached a bit from a wetnurse aiding her in riding herself of her breast milk, she wanted to make sure she could still feed her twins when they are returned.

"Why is it that you are silent when you get up from bed?" Robb asked, sleep still in his voice as he kissed her head, she smiled softly while his arms wrapped around her waist. "Love, they will return soon. You must sleep," he urged as she leaned against him.

"I can't, I've tried but I can't," she frowned as he hummed in curiosity.

"Then let me help with that," he smiled as she giggled.

"Are you sure you are up for it? You sound very tired," she laughed as he kissed her temple before going down and soon to her neck as he helped her undo her slip. His beard rubbed against her smooth skin as she moaned softly, he was obviously awake as she could feel him press against her. He slowly helped her walk back to the bed as her fingers worked on his breeches, his fingers quickly started on her tender breasts as she moaned softly in discomfort. He softly messaged them before going further down to her slick thighs, Robb moaned softly at her soft skin being wet already as she whimpered when he started to rub her clit, he had her lie on her back as she sighed. Robb kissed all the way down as his tongue found her button as she almost cried out, he refused to let her move as she wiggled before his tongue pushed into the opening, he held her legs over his shoulders as she moaned and gasped his name. He groaned as he felt her tighten before stopping as she growled irritated. He chuckled before kissing her harshly as Rhaenyra wrapped her legs around his waist as his cock rested against her.

"We will have them again Rhae," he promised before entering her as she gasped. Moaning softly at him going to the hilt she laid kisses along his shoulder and neck while he suckled at her neck, her hands trailed into his thick curls and the other down his back, nails digging into his skin. As he moved his hips she encouraged him into harsher kisses when his arms caged her, soon as her walls tightened on him which made her bring him closer by locking her ankles behind as he grinded against her, their bodies rubbing against her pelvis as she whimpered. Feeling her body tighten up as he ran one hand down to her hip to help angle her up as he rocked into her, she moaned as his tongue entered her mouth, her own tried to fight his to no avail as he gripped her white hair bring a high moan. Using his free hand it trailed to her bundle as she jerked when he touched it, wailing softly he gave a few harsher thrusts before both their bodies locked, she felt his seed enter as her own release leaked out. He kissed her salty skin as he kissed above her breasts, making sure not to press on her tender mounds. Rhaenyra sighed tiredly as her eyes started to drop as Robb kissed her forehead, he held her close as Rhaenyra snuggled into his embrace when he pulled the furs up. He held her closer as he prayed that they're twins come home, he slowly fell asleep listening to Rhaella call out with Gray Wind for the dragons to come home.

End of the chapter! How was it? Promise the next chapter will be longer! Please read and review~

kankananime123: Finally made it back! Sad that they couldn't make it back in the TV or books. And Roslin would have been very pretty if Robb had just stuck it out, not just marry whoever! I would think that no one loves each other when they first marry in that situation but like Catelyn and Ned you could grow to love each other or at least respect one another. Lol, I don't know, they weren't like his dad to his mom, they did it out of duty and didn't complain or snitch from what I've read so far, or I might be wrong XP But of course I hate Tywin and Walder Frey, they're slime balls, the second more than the first.

NicoleR85: Well Rhaenyra tried to listen to her strategic husband and council.

RHatch89: Sadly I feel the only way to stop them is with dragons. Other than Ramsay apparently because that bastard never goes down until Jon.
