Chapter 2

Levette pov

Standing next to my brother behind our father, I was scared and curious mostly for the fact that the king was coming here. Last time he was very keen on talking to me all the time, maybe because I look a lot like Lyanna many people knew he was smitten by her. We hear a horn and hooves made look straight ahead, we see a cart pull up and the king riding in. we all bow after father, I look up at the king looking at him. He was bigger than he used to be, and he was a lot more gray than normal. I looked aside and saw the kingslayer. He looked at me with a smirk. I smirk back wondering how he has gotten hotter since the last time. Father sat up and so did we, he greeted everyone and then he came to me and Jon smiling.

Robert said look at Lavette "you grow us. How is your hunting and fighting coming along? Levette said look at him "it is a little hard sometimes when I must study as well. I am looking forward to another match with the kingslayer this time I'll beat him without a sword." Jamie smirks as Rob laughs rubbing her shoulder saying "that good it always good to have some ambition in life. Now let go to the crypt end" he starts to walk off while Cersei plead with him to not go but he did not listen and kept walking. Everyone is displaced while Jamie walks up to Lavette smirking.

Riding into Winterfell was quite dull until I saw Lavette, it has been 5 years since I fought with her. Their braveness and smile made me weak. The way she talked and walked was nothing like a proper lady. Given the fact she is a bastard she still looks beautiful as ever, Cersei does not compare to her. It is such a shame she was born a bastard. If not, I would not mind making her mine. I walk up her smiling I hold out her hand kissing looking at her saying "it been a while the last time you beat me and left I was really looking forward to a second round" she giggles saying moving her hand away from me "true kingslayer I wouldn't mind that second round but father wanted me back home soon to help ours. Now that your here we may be able to finish what we started this time with no restraint I know you were holding back that day, and I am ready." I smile rubbing her head unknowing made Cersei very mad having her walk away. I said smiling "as much as I would right now, I cannot find my brother he ran off again maybe after we can fight. "I walk off knowing where my brother ran off to.

A few hours had passed since Jamie left as a celebration was being held, Lavette was sitting next to her brother reading while he was fighting with a dummy. They heard someone walk up, Lavette raises her head smiling and said, "hello Tyrion I been awhile did you have fun at the house." Tyrion smiling sitting down nodding saying "why yes, I did lady Lavette. So why are you two out here instead of in there" Jon said bittering "Catelyn stark said it was improper to have bastards there ruining the family name" Lavette stays quiet and kept reading knowing what he said is true. Tyrion looked at them and said, "You're Ned Stark's bastards" . Jon got mad and looked at him saying "and what of it." Tyrion walked toward him saying ""Let me give you some counsel, bastard. Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you." Jon said, "What do you know about being a bastard?" Tyrion smirks, looking at him "all dwarves are bastards in their father's eye" he walks off. Levette signs and shakes her head. She gets up and rubs his shoulder saying, "he right Jon." Jon looks away mad saying "oh really and what about you. Father adores you while many people leave you alone." Jon signed and regretted saying that as he was trying to talk but she said "you right I do because I made a choice to either hide or try not to get killed by them. Or fight and be able to raise myself to live a comfortable life instead of one that is for most bastards. That is what you are doing going to the wall to live a different life so am I." She smiles, hugging him softly, walking off to the right and scoring some leftover food from the kitchen for dinner.

The next day I woke up in a cold room. I signed and walked over to the firepit seeing no logs and coal was given, I would have to go down and get it herself which meant a lot fight she did not want to have. I dress in my normal clothes but decided to wear a striking red coat with it as extra warm but make it look like it was something light. I walked down the furnace and picked out wood and coal many people gave me glares and looks but turned away when she walked back. One of the maids trip my saying it was accident, but I shrug it off and held my head high as I bring the wood back and set it aside for tonight. After I fix myself a little and stop by the kitchen for some leftover bread from the night before to eat. Walking out of the kitchen I bumped into Jamie looking at me smiling. He said "good morning. Is that all your having surely there must be more." I smiled, patting his arm, and saying "no I had a big dinner last time, so I just want something light. " I tried to walk off but Jamie said "you sure because last time I check you were nowhere to be found at the feast." I am smiling knowing I was caught but thankfully Tyrion stopped him, so I was able to leave unnoticed. I moved around taking a bite off my bread, I decided to get on my horse for early morning ride. Riding passes the people and knights and toward the wood made me feel free and happy enjoying what to come.

Me and rob watch as Lavette rode off to whatever I turn over to look at rob. Rob said, "I want to go hunting let go like old time." I smile and go with him hunting. After a few hours we stopped and made camp. Rob told me what to come and he needed someone in his corner right now and that was me. I did not know if I could do it, I will be leaving my family and leaving Lavette alone in Winterfell. I said "you know I can't I have my family to think about and many other" rob said angry "then bring them there. Have your oldest daughter marry my son let us me bonded my marriage once again to help strengthen our house. Bring Lavette as well she will need to have something other than Winterfell…" I sign and look off unsure of what do, I will talk it over with Catelyn to see what she thinks. We talk most of the time about glory day. I smile feeling the most relax I felt in years being with him like this.

After I left, I stay with Orion until night, knowing I stayed out to late now, I choose to ride back upon arrive I knew it felt off. So, I quickly dismounted my horse and to run everyone only to see the master working on bran. Jon took me away before Catelyn could say anything. I looked scared and sad he was not moving or breathing. After a while I calmed down enough to get Jon off of me to wonder on my own. I wanted to go back on the horse and curl up with Orion but that would cause them to find me, and I could not let them see Orion. I sign and walk out to the god wood to pray for bran recover when I bump into Jamie, I fell down look up to see him holding out his hand I took it with a sad look of grief saying "thank you sir Jamie what are you doing out here so late at night." he said smirking "I could say the same thing to you. Someone could hurt you or worst. Beside you need to be by your family side right now they need you." I chuckled at that looking away saying "I wish anyway they wouldn't want someone like me there anyway beside I was going to pray to the gods for his recovery." Jamie holds my hand and looks down at them with a confused look "there cold your hand and body is cold to the touch. You need to be in a room to be warm come now let me take you to your room at least" I was too tired to care so I said yes and walk with. He started to look more concerned when we did not go to the other wing but instead of the servant corner, I opened my door and a blast of cold hit it with the damp feeling as well. Jamie said looking around "why do you live like this. You are a stark you should at least have someone here to help you." I sign and walk toward the furnace and start a fire saying "it was the lady of Winterfell said will look bad to people if someone like me stay with them. Beside it not to bad I get to live a good life and I enjoy myself…anyway is that all Jamie" i tried to stand but was to try and fell. Jamie caught me putting cover over me while I sleep making sure there were enough fire to keep me warm.
