CHAPTER 12

Lyra stood up and so did Jorah. She said, "It's time to go to bed. It can get hard to wake up my lioness. Did I tell you she snores, steals the blankets and rolls over on me if she doesn't want to get up?"

Ned laughed and said, "No, you forgot passing stinky air though." It made her and Jorah laugh. Caitlyn swatted Ned smiling. The lords chuckled.

Lyra said waving, "Goodnight, everyone." She headed to let Crystal go to the bathroom outside the castle with Jorah. Then they crossed the courtyard to her room in the Guest House. As soon as Lyra closed the door Jorah kissed her up against the door. Lyra broke the kiss and unclipped Crystal's leash, tossing it in the chair by the door. She took off her weapons belt and grabbed him back to her and kissed him some more. He pulled his tunic over his head and took off his boots and weapons belt and baldric putting them in the chair also. While he did that, she took off her boots.

Jorah pulled her shirt slowly up over her head and started kissing her shoulder and the tops of her breasts in the cloth corset. He sat on the bed and started untying her pants touching her thighs as they slid down and helped her step out of them. He began untying her corset. When her breasts were free, his mouth was on them licking and tugging on her nipples. She moaned softly. She pushed him back and was untying his pants. He sat up and slid her underwear off.

He said, "Lyra, I just knew your body was beautiful." She reached down inside his pants and cupped his balls.

Lyra said, "Let's get your clothes off." He stood up taking off his pants and small clothes, while she pulled down the covers on the bed.

He stepped around her and undid her braid, putting the tie on the table by the bed. He ran his hands through her hair loosening it and Lyra softly moaned. It felt good. He sat on the bed touching her skin kissing her belly button. Lyra giggled. He smiled looking up at her. She pushed him back on the bed. He scooted back and she crawled up his body straddling him. She laid on top of him and he pulled the blanket around them.

That was Crystal's cue to get in bed. The lioness jumped up on the bed and Lyra lifted the blanket as she laid down and flopped on her side. Lyra covered her.

Jorah said, "Hope she doesn't roll over on us."

Lyra giggled and said, "Live in fear." He grinned up at her with her light brown hair draped over her left shoulder. His hands moved up her body from her thighs, hips, back and breasts. Lyra bent over deeply kissing him. He reached between them and started circling her clit. She moved with his hand and was biting her bottom lip as she was getting into the feeling.

She whispered softly, "Jorah." He pulled her under him with his strong arms.

He said softly, "Lyra, my love. I want to taste you. He started kissing his way slowly down her chest and stomach and started licking and circling her clit. Lyra inhaled deeply. He nibbled, licked her and put his fingers inside her moving them in and out getting them wet. He then began pushing and rubbing on the inside upper wall. He hit her g spot. Lyra was gasping, arching her back. It felt wonderful and he did it so well with his mouth and lips. She came and came hard. He crawled up her body, licking her neck and biting it in nips. She pulled his mouth to her lips and started kissing him. His hands were everywhere. He began to enter her. He was a big boy. Bigger than Tywin was. He went slow in and out wetting himself well and moving in further. When he was seated inside her. He broke the kiss.

He said to make sure, "Does it feel ok?"

Lyra said, caressing his back and neck., "You're not a little man, Jorah." He smiled and shook his head no. She said seductively, "I'll have to taste you next time, Jorah, my sweet." He smiled down at her and got up on his elbows. He started moving his hips. She started moaning softly and moving with him.

He said licking her neck, "I can't wait to learn all about you. You're so very delicious." He started moving quicker while kissing Lyra. His tongue was moving with his hips he was devouring her mouth she had never been kissed like he was doing. It was so passionate, consuming and his movements expressed everything he was feeling for her. His hands were grasping, holding her body pressed to himself.

He whispered in her ear, "I am completely in love with you, Lyra. You can tell me when you're ready. I want you to know, I'll never turn you away. You're mine and I am yours. I adore you and I want you forever. Nobody can ever love you like I do." She had tears in her eyes seeing his honesty and he kissed them as she caressed his cheek and neck.

She said softly in his ear, "You sweet loving man." She started trembling inside, she was about to come and she started kissing him to stifle herself so as not to wake up the castle. When she came she grabbed him so hard that it instantly sent him to cum with her. He was so shocked but glad she was still kissing him. He held her tight and broke the kiss to breathe heavily.

He said panting, "Lyra… I love you." She was holding his body close to hers. She was licking his shoulder with her tongue, tasting his skin and sweat. He was still inside her as his hands caressed her skin. She couldn't get enough of his taste and scent. Her tongue moved to his ear lobe and she sucked and bit it. He groaned and started getting hard again. He said, "God's woman. I can't believe you make me want you again already." He began moving within her again.

Into the morning they had made love four times and could have slept in, but that was not meant to be. There was knocking on the door.

Arya's little voice said, "Lady Lyra? Are you awake?"

Lyra had a luscious naked Jorah Mormont wrapped warmly around her body. She said, "I am just waking up, Arya, sweet girl."

Arya asked, "Are you coming to break your fast?"

Lyra said, "I'll be there in a bit, my little love."

Arya smiled and said, "Ok."

Lyra looked over in Jorah's very turquoise blue eyes that were open. She smiled, kissing his mouth and pulling his lower lip, letting it snapback. He said in a high voice, "No Arya, I need to let my man have his wicked way with me before I break my fast." She started laughing at him and tickled him. He chuckled and kissed her sweetly.

Lyra said laughing, "You sounded just like me. Let's get dressed, and go take Crystal out to relieve herself. Let's bathe in the hot springs below later, Jorah." He pouted but then smiled at the thought of bathing with her and got up and dressed after using the privy closet. Lyra wore her hair down today braiding it back on the sides and putting on a bit of makeup quickly with perfume. They held hands wearing their cloaks walking Crystal out to pee.

When they got back and went into the Great Hall, she saw more lords, including one dark haired fourteen year old boy with ice blue eyes. She knew who he was. Arya looked up and grinned at her. She walked up to her and kissed her cheek and moved down to Sansa, Robb, Theon and Jon kissing them too. She turned and kissed Jorah and he went around the table to sit with the other lords. Ramsay kept looking at her and her lioness. The boys Theon and Jon had her chair saved between them. Lyra sat down. The food was brought out and served. Lyra got Crystal's platter and sat it in-between her and Theon.

Jon whispered, "That boy Ramsay Snow is here. I hate him."

Lyra said whispering, "You can be with me today as much as you like after I visit the hot springs under the castle to avoid him if you have to. I love your company, Jon Snow. You are mine and Crystal's friend. Maybe we can have another snowball war and I'll show you how I hit everyone in the head. If not today for sure tomorrow." The boy lit up smiling and laughing out loud at her. She grinned seeing him laugh, because it made her feel happy. They began eating happily.

Lyra asked Theon in a whisper, "Do you children have classes today?"

Theon said to her, "No, we got it off for harvest."

She said grinning at him, "I told Jon we could see if we could have another snowball war sometime later today. If not definitely tomorrow after classes." He smiled and whispered to Robb passing it down the line to Arya. She cheered out loud.

Caitlyn asked Arya, "Why are you so happy?"

Arya said beaming, "We're going to have a snowball war today with Lady Lyra and Crystal like yesterday. If not today then definitely tomorrow."

Caitlyn said, "Then everyone wears their mittens or gloves today and tomorrow." The children groaned.

Lyra said happily, "I got mine and Crystal will wear all four of hers." The children giggled.

Lord Rickard Karstark asked Ned next to him, "Who is this Lady Lyra?"

Ned said, "She is Lady Lyra Wyldwood from the ship 'The Wyldwynd' docked in White Harbor. She's from the Wylde's from Rain House and Storms End."

Lord Karstark said, "She's a pretty little girl. I have two sons and I could get her betrothed too."

Ned said smiling, "I don't think she would be interested. She has already been betrothed yesterday to Jorah Mormont. She stole his heart four years ago and they just found each other again. She is estranged from the Wylde's and never even met them. As the last of the Wyldwood's, she is independent and an experienced ship's merchant, swords woman and lion tamer."

Lord Karstark said gruffly, "Quite an independent worldly woman for Jorah Mormont to catch. Women like that are hard to control."

Ned said fondly, "She's an amazing woman. She handles my children very well. Her lion loves them."

Karstark asked frowning, "You think it's safe to have such a dangerous animal around your children?"

Ned said, "If you saw them together for the last few days you would see it too. She is loving and protective of them." At that moment Jon started laughing as Crystal started nuzzling his neck and making silly rowel noises doing it.

Lyra giggled and admonished her softly, "You big softie girl, let him eat and play later."

~~~~~~~~~

Later that day after bathing in the hot springs with Jorah and having sex quietly, Lyra and Crystal were walking around and went into Winter Town to see the vendors if they were out. Jorah had to socialize with the northern lords. Jon was off somewhere with Robb and Theon. She got herself a couple hand meat pies from a vendor and sat on a stump and it started to lightly snow. As she was tearing the corner off in pieces for Crystal to let it cool a bit, she remembered Jorah was having a card game in the Guest House together with the lords, so Lyra was on her own for a while.

Snow made Lyra think about the lighting of the big tree and the lighting of the big ball in Times Square. It was billions upon billions of stars away. A different world probably in a different galaxy for all she knew or a different reality. She was here now trying to alter the outcome and benefit the people here now responsibly. It all seems distant now that she is here and so far away. She poked a cooled piece of crust into Crystal's mouth. She sat the pie on the ground on a piece of board she found and let Crystal pick at it. Lyra started eating her pie.

Then, Ramsay appeared walking down the street. Lyra looked at him and he walked into the brothel. She thought, 'Fourteen years old in a brothel. Good rearing there, Roose.' Lyra sighed and ignored it.

The next thing she saw was the brothel owner pushing Ramsay out the door. He spewed hateful words and stomped quickly back to the castle. When she and her lioness finished their pie, they went back to the castle, after letting the cat go to the bathroom. She hurried to the castle because it was snowing harder.

Once inside the East Gate, she was walking to the Great Keep but she heard something and it led her down the battlement walls to the right to an older section of the wall between the Broken Tower and behind the First Keep that had logs beams sticking out about every space. It was in the section where the crypt was. Lyra saw Sansa hanging from the edge of the parapet and Ramsay teasing her to pick at her fingers while she tried to scream for help, but he told her he would push her hands off if she did. Lyra ran to the East Gate and up the battlements stairs running across the top to the First Keep. She saw Ramsay as she passed the building and shoved him as hard as she could and muttered a wish to break his leg. He screamed when his leg broke. Sansa's hands fell off the parapet wall and she grabbed one of the logs sticking out of the wall. Crystal was roaring loudly to get help. Lyra crawled over the parapet onto the log and sat down straddling it to reach Sansa.

She said calmly but firmly, "Sansa, I want you to give me one of your hands." She saw Ned come to the crypt section in her peripheral vision, looked up and ran back to the East Gate.

Sansa said, "I'm afraid, Lyra." Ramsay is still screaming and swearing at them but Lyra is focused on Sansa.

Lyra said, "I know sweet girl, but you have to trust me. I'm going to grab both your wrists and pull you up to me." Lyra reached out and locked her hand over her wrists. She knew it was going to kill her left shoulder.

Lyra said calmly, "Let's count to three and you let go… One, two, three!" Lyra pulled the eight year old up as hard as she could, having to drop one arm to get around the log. Sansa screamed scared. But she grabbed it again and got her seated sideways in front of her. Ned was above her.

Ned said, panting, "Let me help, Lyra?"

Lyra said calmly, "Ned…." There was a cracking noise and the log shifted under her butt.

Lyra shouted, "Ned reach and pull Sansa up now! The log is cracking!"

Ned stretched out and Sansa reached for him saying, "Don't drop me, Papa."

Ned shouted, "Never!" He pulled Sansa to safety. Lyra had gently scooted back against the wall.

Ned said, reaching his arm down to her, "Take my hand, Lyra. I'll pull you up."

Lyra said cautiously, "My right arm, Ned. My left is weak. He tried to kill her, Ned. I just shoved him away from her."

Ned said pleading, "Don't worry about that right now. Let's get you over here first, Lyra." She reached her right arm up slowly. Ned clamped onto her arm and she grabbed his arm.

Once he had a good grip, he said, "Ok, Lyra…" She hollered as the log cracked off and plummeted to the ground and Lyra was swinging from Ned's arm.

He shouted, "Ok, hold on!" He pulled her up so she could grab the wall and pulled the rest of her over. Lyra fell to the ground on the battlements walkway. As she sat up Sansa flew into her arms crying. Lyra wrapped her in a hug and kissed her tearstained face.

Sansa said, "If you hadn't come I'd… I'd be dead." She was petting Sansa's head. Crystal was purring and sniffing them both.

Lyra said, "It's ok sweet baby girl. Your father saved us both."

Sansa said, "I love you, Lyra. He tried… he tried to make me… stick it in my mouth. I wouldn't do it and he pushed me against the wall and said he would make me sorry if I didn't do it. I didn't."

Lyra said, "I know. I love you too, Sansa. I saw him try to go to the brothel in town and get kicked out by them. He must have come here and tried this after." Lyra looked at Ned angry as hell. Ned was really mad too.
