Love Languages*GoT Boys
Included: Robb, Jon, Theon, Bran, Tormund, Podrick, Obryen
How they like to give and receive love
Word count: 553
Warnings: None
Masterlist here
Tumblr media
Robb: his way of showing love is defiantly acts of service and words of affirmation. He will never stop telling you how much you mean to him and will ride into battle or search the castle for the last piece of cake for you. however, he loves to receive physical touch and words of affirmation back. Holding him in any capacity melts him. holding hands, linking arms, hugs, cuddles, head scratches. They all turn him into a puppy dog.
Jon: his main way of showing is acts of service. Jon can be very insecure at times which holds him back from expressing his love with words and touch at times since he fears rejection. However, these are also the ways he desperately craves love. Specifically, words of affirmation. Anything from small compliments about his sword work or how much you appreciate what he does for you fills his heart with joy.
Theon: physical touch is how he shows love. Whether it be hand holding or wrapping his arm around your waist he always wants to be in constant contact with you. however, I think this boy would melt if you gave him a gift. Whether that be a flower you picked or even a loaf of bread you made for him he would be so happy you thought of him.
Bran: he shows his love through gifts. It ranges from small things like an especially smooth stone he spotted on a walk or a button or broach he’d think would go with your cloak. sometimes he will also steal books from the library he knows you will enjoy. His favourite way to receive it though is quality time. you don’t have to say anything just be there, with him, side by side. He likes when you curl up in bed with him and just read to him, shutting out the rest of the world.
Tormund: he defiantly shows it through words. He is a massive flirt and will constantly tell you how much he adores you and how the way you speak mesmerises him. he also brags about you all the time. his favourite back however is physical touch. Its partly because when you wrap your arm around his or lean into his side everyone can see that you’re his, but he also enjoys sitting in front of you at night as you comb through his hair.
Podrick: he gives love through acts of service. He will run around the castle all day tyring to lighten your workload and dotes on you constantly. His favourite back however is words of affirmation. He loves to be told how much you appreciate him and how good he is. it might make him blush like crazy, but he loves to hear it.
Obreyn: he is the master of love languages. He will tell you constantly how much he loves you and is constantly touching you. he will go to the ends of the earth for you and is constantly giving you little trinkets. However, he absolutely melts when you give him quality time. your undivided dedicated attention is something he craves. He will lay with his head on your lap all day talking about anything and everything if you let him.

Perfect Queen?
BRANDON STARK X READER
Summary- As the new queen and lady of Winterfell, you feel out of place. Thankfully, Bran reassures you of your position and loves you for who you are- not who you are trying to be.
A/N- I have not written for GoT in awhile, but HotD season 2 has sparked my interest again! Reminder that REQUEST ARE OPEN! <3
Requested by- @eualiabd @zamwnda
Word count- 1,612
Tumblr media
You were barely a noble. The third daughter out of seven girls born into house Frey. Not a single male survived long enough to carry on the family name. What does a family full of women do? Marry off. So quickly that just after your ten and nine birthday, you were the only sister who was unwed.
Maybe being from a low house, and not having much experience with lordship- landed you as King Brandon Starks wife.
Of course, your mother was ecstatic when the king of all men, wanted to marry you. You had only known the previously named prince when he was a boy.
His father, Ned Stark, would visit on business to the Riverlands. Brandon always joined, eager to see you. Even after his fall, you were able to see him one last time before he disappeared for many years. You were devastated when you learnt of his 'death.' When he returned, you figured he forgot all about you. Though, a dozen knights showing up at your door, requesting you to meet with the King, changed your mind.
"A Stark never forgets an oath." Was his reasoning, suddenly a fond memory of Bran and you as children appeared. He, even at his young age, held your hand and swore on his name to marry you one day. To join your families.
At his now official and surprising marriage proposal, you quickly agreed. Any woman would be insane not to, feelings aside, you were helping the reputation of your house.
While your reunion with him was quick, it was satisfactory. He had changed with age and with his new responsibilities. As king and The Three Eyed Raven. Deep down, he was still the boy you loved. Even if he only showed it to you.
The cold air was refreshing, not stiff not muggy like you were used to. Though it took some time, you've learnt to grow fond of the snow and crisp feeling. A trip back to Brans home made you overjoyed. Even if Bran was only there on 'kingly' matters.
A large coat made of the finest furs rested up on your shoulders. A pin with the Stark emblem let all know you were the Queen. A title you were trying to get comfortable with. There were so many duties you were getting familiar with.
That wasn't hardly the worst part, however.
What irked you to no end, were the stares. Mostly women who were in court, or wives of men who frequented the castle. They had no room to speak, yet still murmured and gossiped to each other. The audacity to talk about the queen as they passed you. It shocked you that they were so informal.
You could never get close enough to hear, as Brandon had two Knights with you at all times. You understood the precaution, though your freedom was slightly limited.
"Bran, please tell me what they said..." You pleaded. It was evening, and the two of you were sat side by side for supper. Only separated by a corner of the table.
He looked up at you, face expressionless like it always was. "It is insignificant gossip."
You pushed your warm plate of food back, you were not interested anymore. "Not to me, it isn't."
Bran was fully aware of what they were thinking and saying. Just because he was All-Seeing, did not mean you also had to bear that burden. He would do everything he could to keep away the ill effects of his powers.
"Consider the matter finished." Was all he responded with, very 'Bran-like.'
However, the matter was not finished to you. With enough time, you knew you could get Bran to cave into you. He almost never told you 'no.' All he wanted was to keep you happy. He just did not see any reason to spread negative thoughts into your mind.
You pushed your chair back with a small screech. Taking a deep breath, you took one long stride to Bran's side.
Maybe you were trying to soften him up, you'd never tell, but you wrapped both hands around his forearm. Even crouching down to look up at him.
"I want to be a good queen. I want to fix whatever they chastised me for. Bran, you know I wont give until you tell me... Surely you know that?" You lightly moved your hand up and down his arm. He did know, he just wanted to do something his way for once. Deep within, he knew you'd get what you wanted. It was terribly hard to do anything that upset you.
He pursed his lips, giving out a sigh. "You are a good queen." He leaned down to kiss the top of your head.
With a puff you stood up, letting him go. "Obviously no one else thinks so." Your dramatic side got the best of you as you turned and left the dinning hall.
You allowed yourself to wallow in self pity, something you'd have time to regret later.
Your handmaid rushed behind you, eager to help whatever the problem was.
"I just don't understand why he won't tell me, Tamsin." You sulked on a padded chair while your handmaid gently took the ties and pins out of your hair.
She pressed a friendly hand to your shoulder, "He just wants to protect you."
You gave a half hearted smile, "I want to get better, I've never been a queen before..." You stood to let Tamsin being to unlace your corset.
You both heard a strong knock, assumingly from a member of the kings guard.
"The queen needs a moment to dress!" Tamsin called out, aware of a queens modesty.
A deep voice called back, "The King requests to see her Majesty."
Tamsin stopped with the laces and went to peek her head out. You couldn't hear what she was saying, but she quickly returned.
"Uh, Ma'am, the King is outside... waiting..." She was always a little nervous around Bran, you knew it was because of the Title and passiveness.
She fiddled with her fingers, "You are dismissed, thank you. Please let the King in." She responded with a light curtsy.
After Tamsin opened the door, you stood and watched as a knight pushed Bran in. The two of you were quickly left alone as Bran waved off the man.
You look down, trying to press your dress flat, slightly anxious.
Bran simply looked, the smallest smile present. "I apologize for upsetting you. It was not my intention." He says, his own hands resting still in his lap.
"I know..." You licked your lips, suddenly your mouth felt dry. At the following silence you started again, "Will you help me?" You gestured to your lace that was halfway tied on your back.
He nodded, "Of course."
He pushed himself over, getting closer to you. You turned your back to him, pulling your hair over your shoulders.
"Bran?" You quietly said as his gentle hands worked at your laces. An activity that was strangely intimate and peaceful.
"Yes, my love?" He responded, mindlessly. You let the dress fall from your frame. You stepped out of it, now only in a white slip.
You gnawed at your bottom lip, tears were threatening. "Please, just tell me if I become a better queen?" Your voice cracked up on the word 'queen', tears spilling over.
Hands came up to try and cover your sobs.
''I have a feeling you have been struggling with this for awhile..." Bran says, ushering you to spin around with his hands at your waist. He would never read your secret thoughts without your permission.
You weren't able to deny or agree, but you turned to look at him.
"I have seen, and you will become the most loving Queen the realm has ever known. You will be named for your care of the people." He said, pulling you down into a hug.
"Really?"
You fell further to your knees, leaning your head onto this lower chest. Bran pet your hair slowly, his other hand rested on your back.
"Have I ever lied to you?" You shook your head, still buried in him.
"Would you really like to know what those two women said?" He asked, a finger bringing your chin up. You nodded.
"They said your house was not high enough for you to become queen. They were sure that they would be better candidates." His face was stoic, clearly in disgust at what they said.
You sighed and rested your head down once again, arms crossed under your head. You looked out the side sadly, though starting to accept your position. There was nothing you could do about the house you were born into.
"You do know that I would rather die an old and lonely man than marry another? Right?" He pets your hair once again.
A smile arises on your face. "I couldn't think of a more handsome nor giving husband of you."
Without skipping a beat, he says, "Well, that's because I am king." His expression and tone is serious, but you laugh nonetheless.
It is soon clear that he was joking as well, as he breaks into a grin.
You sigh once more, this time happy. "Can we retire to bed now?" You ask, squeezing his hand.
"Whatever you so wish."
Sleep was moments from taking you, your eyes fighting to stay open. You were pressed up as close as possible to Bran, your head tucked under his chin.
"I meant what I said, earlier." Bran mentions, staring up. Without moving you speak, "About what?"
"That you're already a great queen." Your heart fills with flutters.
"Promise?"
"I swear it."
A/N- Not going to lie to y'all, I hate this one. But, I promised more Bran content! Please let me know if you have any ideas on how to improve! Thanks for reading, and thanks again for the support guys!

Your moans filled his ear drums, listening as you whispered sweet nothing's into his ear.
His family was supposed to be out for the day, but then just happened to get home early.
They all piled into the hallway.
"Stop." Catelyn said. "Can't you hear that?"
Sansa and Arya stiffled laughs as they all approached Bran's room. The noises got louder.
Catelyn opened the door.
"BRANDON!"
You both turned to look at each other in embarrassment.
"Fuck."

Brandon!
Media - Game Of Thrones Character - Brandon Stark Couple - Bran X Reader Reader - Y/n Rating - Smut Word Count - 595
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Bran walked slowly and carefully through the halls of Winterfell. As he walked, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and reverence for the many people who had walked these halls before him. The shadows and ghosts of those who had passed on seemed to fill the air around him, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder and curiosity.
As he continued through the halls, Bran saw many faces he recognized from the statues in the crypts.
Out of curiosity, Bran continued to walk, and as he did, time seemed to rush forward. He saw glimpses of the future, flashes of scenes and events that would one day take place in these very halls.
Finally, Bran arrived at his chamber, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. He pushed open the door and stepped inside, eager to see what the future held 
However, as soon as he entered the room, Bran was taken aback by what he saw. The sight before him was not at all what he had expected, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease and foreboding.. 
He stopped short as he saw his chamber, the fire burning with the light flickering and letting shadows dance, The bed was a mess, and Y/n lay on the bed on her back. 
She laid on her back, her head thrown back, her feet up on the bed, her knees apart, her hands gripping the sheets, she moaned and squealed. 
A dark-haired man laid between her legs, kissing and licking her clit, one hand on her thigh the other inside her moving fast and hard back inside her. 
Immediately Bran felt jealous, at the idea of another man between her legs made his blood boil and he was filled with rage. But his rage was very quickly Quelled, 
she tossed her head back again and moaned. "Brandon!" 
He smirked a little moving closer and took the time to really look and enjoy the sight, he of course had never seen their intimate time from such an angle, and he enjoyed it. He loved watching her reach to his work, He almost felt like climbing into bed and getting to kiss and play with her breasts while his future self still worked on her. 
But he stayed back and watched until he watched her reach her orgasm her face went red, her body trembling, and she screamed as she gripped the sheets tighter and collapsed on the bed. 
The future bran pulled back and smirked down at her, "Happy my sweet?"
"Very happy Bran..."
"Shall we... continue?"
"Mhm," she nodded helping the future version of him to lay in the bed so she could climb on top of him, "Ughhh! Bran!" she squealed, 
"Bran? Bran!" Y/n's voice asked,
Bran shook out of his visions of the future and found himself in his chambers on the bed by the fire, seeing Y/n standing over the bed in her usual dress. "Hi Y/n,"
"Hello Brandon, having fun running around the past and future?" 
"Very much fun," He nodded,
"Glad you were enjoying it, but it's dinner time," she told him,
"Is it now," He smirked, "How about you lay down and let me eat then?"
"Brandon!" she chuckled, "You dirty boy!"
"You love it," he smirked pulling her down for a kiss,
She chuckled and kissed him back, "After dinner." She told him,
"Awww? Making me wait?"
"You can manipulate time you never have to wait for anything," 
"I still don't like waiting,"
"Fine," she rolled her eyes, "what first?"
"On your back, with your knees up. I have a real fun idea."

Tumblr media
As soon as the boat arrived with her on board, everyone went crazy. It wasn't that big of a deal, I was planning on rejecting the proposal,
why would I marry a complete stranger?
I knew they would make me go receive her and her family, so I hid until they left, I knew my mother would reprimand me, but as much as I could avoid her, the better.
I came down from my hiding spot to see my older sister, Sansa, standing there with her arms over her chest. I was clearly mad, I tried to run, but she caught up to me
"Don't you know just how in trouble you are right now," she said, pulling my ear slightly to not injure me, but enough that it would hurt
"Let me go!" I said."Stop whining! mom's gonna give you an earful"
As we entered the mess hall, i could see my mother standing with a displeased face, looking directly at me
"Why do you not want to see her, Bran?"
My mother said, annoyed. I just ignored her and looked to the side
"Answer me, Brandon," she repeated herself, this time mad.
"Why would I marry someone I've never met!" I snapped, now standing up
"You think she chose to get married, chose to be sent away from her family to come into this one?" She replied hastily looking into my eyes.
I stopped, and I never thought about her situation, I knew my sisters would have the same fate. Yet I still couldn't stomach the thought of being with a complete stranger for the rest of my life.
"...no, I'm sorry," I said, embarrassed, looking at my mother
"When she gets here, treat her nicely, you don't have to like her immediately.. you'll have time to learn how to love and cherish her."
With that, she left, leaving me there pondering on how my life would be with a stranger.
𓅨˚₊‧⁺⋆♱
The harsh cold wind was unfamiliar to me. My fingers felt like falling off. I couldn't imagine how it would feel once winter came.
The Lord of Winterfell, Eddard Stark, got off his horse and came up to us. He looked around, clearly expecting more people
"I thought Lord Caius would come to send you off, I guess I was mistaken," he said sincerely
at the mention of my father's name, my eyes went wide, coming out of my trance. My sister noticed and grabbed my hand firmly.
"My apologies, Lord Stark, some..commotion has started in our land, both our parents had to stay to re ensure the safety of our people."
He nodded, "No worries, I understand. You'll be taken care of here, until your leave." he said.
Robb, the oldest, helped to mount my stuff on the horses. I smiled at him, muttering a small 'thank you'
The man I've learned to address as Theon tried to start small talk once in the horses,
"Bravoos is a beautiful place from what my friends say," he started
"I suppose it does have its own flare,"
I say out of it, just mentions of Bravoos made my stomach churn.
not wanting to seem rude, i forced the conversation to continue
"Winterfell is even more beautiful than what I had imagined. You must feel proud of being born here, my Lord," I say, looking at him, his eyes drop for a second too long.
"I'd have to agree with you, my Lady, it is indeed a beautiful place, yet I'm not form here, I'm form the Iron Islands, a Greyjoy"
"Oh, well, it must've been hard getting used to the weather," I say, mustering up a dry chuckle. He nodded and was about to continue till Robb told him something, and he stayed by his side until we arrived.
It seemed my betrothed was nowhere to be seen.
𓅨˚₊‧⁺⋆♱
Once you arrived at Castle Ward, you couldn't believe your eyes..it was beautiful, a sense of comfort and warmth that radiated from it.
All of the remaining family that didn't go out to receive you and your sister were all lined up, two girls, two boys, and a woman.
As all of you approached them, you heard whispers in the crowd
'She's to marry the little lord?'
'Isn't she a doll'
'so beautiful'
'Bravoosi ey?'
you payed them no mind as you plastered a small smile on your lips and bowed to the family, waiting to be risen you looked up briefly, and the boy, who seemed your age was already looking at you, as soon as the two of your eyes met, they disconnected.
So that was to be your husband, your salvation.
"Rise child," Lady Catelyn said sweetly, and so you did. Looking at her in the eye, you smiled. "Pleasure to finally meet you, my Lady." you say.
"Likewise, you are more beautiful than what the books described... So glad you could make it safely,"
"This is Sansa and Arya, my only daughters, and I've seen you've met Robb, my first born already, we'll this is Rickon, the youngest and Bran, you're betrothed" she continued, pointing at each one of the children as she named them.
"Pleasure to meet you all, I hope we can get along." Your eyes met Bran's as you finished. He avoided them as soon as he saw you.
"I can't wait for us to be sisters," Sansa exclaimed in her place as she went up to you to pull your hand. "Would you like to see your room?" she asked hands, holding yours. You nodded, and she took off running with you in tow.
"Careful not to fall!" Catelyn yelled at the both of you.
Ophelia looked at Brandon and walked up to him.
"I trust you'll take care of her, My Lord?"
she said to him, a trail of worries behind her words.
"I promise, she won't be sad as long as she's with me" Brandon replied, with a smile looking up at her, she nodded and bowed slightly l, mouthing a small 'thank you'
𓅨˚₊‧⁺⋆♱
The food was wonderful, the smell of wine was everywhere in the dining room, and people danced and sang, up until Lord Stark stood up and held his cup of wine and hit it with his spoon
"Today, we celebrate the soon to be union between House Stark and House Corvus!" he said loudly, everyone followed suit, cheering and clapping rather obnoxiously.
Your face was dull and expressionless, staring off into the abyss that were the walls. You couldn't escape it.
You heard her everywhere, like a taunting reminder that you got a better chance that she could've ever gotten, you hated yourself, even if it wasn't your fault.
a hand on your shoulder helped you out of the trance, Arya. If you remember,
"Want to spar outside? If you don't know.. I can teach you!"
You smiled genuinely for what felt like the first time in weeks and nodded, running off with Arya outside.
..
"Grab one!" she said to me, throwing me a wooden sword that was left on the floor. I caught it after it almost escaped my hold, Arya giggled, "Just you wait," I told her jokingly, making her get into a stance, a bad one, and so did I.
We sparred for almost an hour when their Septa walked out of the mess hall and froze in her steps
"Arya Stark!" she yelled in disbelief
"Oh no.." Arya sighed
"What do you think you're doing, young lady?" the septa said as she dragged Arya by the arm
"Im not a lady," Arya bickered
"Your father is a lord, making you. a lady, now get inside!" the old woman said, annoyed, clearly having dealt with this more times that she could count. Once Arya made it inside, and after she flashed you a smile, the septa came up to me
"My Lady, please don't humor her, I hope i won't have to deal with the both of you from now on," she voiced out as nicely as she could
"I promise i won't become a problem." My eyes squinted as I smiled at her.
Pleased with my answer, she bowed slighly and left.
'maybe this wouldn't be so bad' I thought as I gazed at my surroundings, the tall grey walls of the castle were mesmerizing, although the castle back home was more lively and more colourful, on the inside it was dull and bleak, now even more so, with everything currently going on.
"Lost on your thoughts again, little lady?" a man whom i've never met said to me almost invading my personal space."Please don't call me that sir, " I say, trying to sound as polite as possible.
He got closer. "Your father sent me," he said, and my eyes went wide, I opened my mouth to scream, but he covered it "Scream and you'll end up like Leiana, understood?" He asked, I nodded as tears escaped my eyes,
"Your brother ever told you what I did to the little whore?" He continued now moving to the stables, I couldn't breathe, "Answer me!" he screamed.
"NO, no he didn't please let me go, I won't say anything!" My words were rushed, I didn't want to end up like that, broken and destroyed.
He threw me down on the hay that adorned the floor of the empty stable, my cries were drowned by the music that played in the mess hall and the cheers.
"Oh, I'll let you go, just after im done with you," he said, standing up, undoing his belt.
As I tried to scream once more, trying to get anyone to listen to my cries, a sword pushed through the back of the man, blood falling on my skin.. I froze.
"Are you alright?! Did he touch you?!" The man with dark shoulder-length hair said, picking me up, the sword now thrown on the floor.
I hugged him tightly "Thankyou, thank you!" I sobbed trembling.
"What happened?!" I heard Ophelia yell from the doors of the mess hall, once she saw my sobbing figure and the man dead on the floor, she ran to me.
"Please tell me he didn't touch you," She said now on her knees in front of me, holding my face. Her voice was shaking, I shaked my head.
"He asked if Amadeus had told me what he did to Leiana." I tell her as much as my hiccups would let me. Her eyes went dark for a moment.
"Those bastards!" She yelled
The music had stopped, and people were coming outside, Lord Stark came out worried, and once he saw the scene, he hurried to ask what had taken place.
Once everyone calmed down and explained what had happened, I saw Brandon looking at me with worried eyes from afar. He came up to me and offered his coat and left, not knowing what to say. After that, everything was a blurry mess.
When I woke up, a sleeping Ophelia was at my side sitting on a chair. Feeling a shift in the bed, she woke up. "Are you alright, my dear?" She asked me worried, I nodded
"I'm leaving today sister..I can't delay my trip to house Reed" she spoke, my eyes went wide
"What if another one comes after me or worse you!" I exclaim
"I'll be protected by some guards, and so will you, Lord Stark was very understanding"
I sat up abruptly "You told him?!"
"No! Not the whole truth.. I have to be careful"
I relaxed, it wasn't safe for anyone to know as of now, anyone could betray us. Anyone.
𓅨˚₊‧⁺⋆♱
You hugged your sister tightly as she bid farewell to everyone, not knowing if this would be the last time you two would see each other
"We'll meet again" she said caressing your hair
"Once snow comes"
"Blood shall fall"
This would be the last time you heard of Ophelia..alive.
𓅨˚₊‧⁺⋆♱
The days went on rather banal, nothing new, taking sewing and embroidery lessons with Sansa and sneaking off to play with Arya in the courtyard once you got bored.
Everytime you went to talk to Brandon he was dry and cold, sometimes just flat out ignoring you.
you couldn't care less, most royal marriages were only for one thing - unions.
or that's what you told yourself.
One particular day, you noticed you were feeling rather drained, not having done many physical activities you felt worried,
Apparently someone noticed and left you a snack with a note that said 'rest, you look tired', with an apple next to it.
You asked around thinking it was either of the sisters but none knew what you were talking about so you just left it at that.
At around noon, you where playing with Arya on top of some tables, pretending to be knights, when a puncturing pain burst in your lower abdomen making you almost fall off. Arya, worried, dropped her stick and went to you thinking she had hurt you
"Are you okay??" she said panicking "Yes I'm alright just an old bruise I suppose"
you knew it wasn't a bruise, you knew what this pain entailed. You were petrified. this was only the begging.
your sister, Leiana, had explained what happened go the woman in the family once their first blood takes fruition, it's not only blood and pain, it the nightmares of death that plague you, and the smell of blood everywhere. it was too early you thought..way too early.
One morning you woke with the pain gone but a slick feeling in your thighs, you uncovered yourself and saw the crimson red stain that now adorned the bed sheets.
Although you wanted to think you were saved, Leiana also had gotten it, yet that didn't stop them. Nothing stops them
"You know what this entails right my dear" Lady Stark asked you, as you told her what was happening. you nodded slightly, she smiled.
"Don't worry, I know other houses make the girls marry as soon as there first blood occurs, but not here, neither of you are ready so don't fret, your still a child, I couldn't do that to you" she said empathicly. you just nodded and thanked her, and as she left you could only smell blood, it irked you, you felt disgusting.
Sansa was next to you at dinner talking about how wonderfull this was, you could have children now, give birth to little lords and ladies, which made Brandon's cheeks dust a light pink. You giggled, but there was a part of you that felt a nauseating feeling at the pit of your stomach.
If you had a girl would she deal with the same thing your sister did? Would she be chased down the streets and tainted by the men who swore to protect her?
No. you'd make sure she'll never go through that horrible, thing you'll make sure. Even if it's the last thing you do.
The following day you could barely walk, the pain was getting worse and Maester Luwin said ot was normal. saying it was because you had gotten it sooner than it should.
If only.
As you were walking with Sansa trying to withstand the cramping pain, talking about how you two would want both your futures to play out, the pain got worse, in an instant it felt like soemone took a blow to your lower stomach, making you bend over and groaning in pain. Sansa noticed and went to your aid, but before you could say anything everything went black.
𖤐⭒๋��� ⭑
You opened your eyes and the bright light blinded you briefly, your head throbbed as the distant noise got closer.
You weren't quite sure where you were, but it wasn't Winterfell. It was red, everything, the snow was crimson red, the dew falling off the trees was red everything was red. You looked at yourself in the nearby bloodied river.
it wasn't you.
you felt around the face that was reflected on the river, it wasn't yours yet you could feel it, it was c aked in blood as well as the hair that came with it.
before panicking you remembered your sister's words;
"apart from the normal symptoms, you'll be ridden with nightmares for days might even be weeks"
You felt and indescribable hunger and as you saw the crimson snow it became appealing - appetizing even.
you took a handful of it and ate it, and then another, and another until your hunger was satiated.
everything went black for a while and when you awoke, you still weren't in Winterfell, but in the palace of Corvus. Castle Ravenna.
It wasn't you, you had to remind yourself before any panic would settle in your bones.
It all looked so different, The sigil on the banners was the old one, the walls were relatively new, even the throne looked more polished
this was clearly long before you had been born, who's body you were inhibiting, you didnt know, but it felt... different than in the snow earlier, the blood on your veins wamer, and faster.
"Amelia! are you listening?" the voice of a man said
Amelia? if the stories the women in blood told your sister were true, she was the first necromancer of house corvus.
"Yes dear?" you answered, the voice not your own.
"What have you been doing in the outskirts of the city, I've told you a hunded times. do not." he kept going
"The snow, i helped get rid of the red snow"
You didn't know how you knew what to say. You just did. It was automatic.
"We can't keep escaping from our marital duties.. we need to produce an heir"
Your stomach churned at the thought.
The blackout ensued again, yet this time you were in the garden, your hand was bleeding profusely, and a white rabbit squirmed on the floor, its head was detached.
You wouldn't move, couldn't, it felt as in a second your body was still and then you were looking through the rabbits eyes.
You've heard of wargs, yet they manipulated live animals.. not the dead.. as you snapped out of it, you gasped and quickly jid the beheaded rabbit in a bush, washing the wounded hand on the fountain.
The night you finally consummated your marriage with your husband, he was gentle, truly, he was, but we both longed for someone else. We didn't belong to the other, yet our destinies were written long before our conception.
Another black out. Gods, did you hate them by now.
You held your first born in your arms, a beautiful baby girl, eyes like the forest and caramel skin. She cooed at you and you smiled.
Her father seemed mad, only came in the room to corroborate the gender of the child and left.
Your nightmares showed the many children you or better said, Amelia, had through out the years. Five boy and five girls, only two made with love, the other out of necessity.
The last one was the most brutal of them all
Your body was now old and wrinkly as you could only stare in shock as the torture that was inflicted on your daughters was laughed at, and sang about, the remaining two sat on the table ridden in fear that they would wake up with a man in their chambers, putting the through hell, and you couldn't do anything.
Their daughters' daughters would go through this hell, and their daughters after that. Amelia couldn't bear it. You could feel it in her veins. She mustered any bit of energy left in her old bones and killed the man whom she had married all those years ago
The man who let men do whatever they pleased with your daughters for the sake of the kingdom. It was her last straw.
"You stand here accused of practicing the dark arts, and the worst crime..regicide, how do you plead?" The man asked loud for the whole city to hear
I stayed silent.
"Any last words then?" He asked
I looked up and said:
"My daughters will not be able to use their gifts, but be worry of the ones to come, one will be born so fierce, she'll fear no man, as no man will come to harm her, the loss of her sisters will only strengthen her, and the downfall of the tyrants of Bravoos will come"
The daughters cried as they were held by the perpetrators as your neck was sliced from ear to ear. Everything went black for the last time.
𖤐⭒๋࣭ ⭑
When you finally woke up, it was in a cold sweat, pawing at your neck with one hand. You looked hastily at your surroundings and saw a sleeping Bran at your bedside, a hand holding yours. Your heartbeat slowed a little, and you smiled
"Brandon, wake up," you say softly, shaking him
He woke up slowly, eyes groggy, but when he laid his eyes on your figure, his eye widened, and he jumped to hug you. "I thought you wouldn't wake up," he said distraught
You hugged him back and said, "Didn't know you missed me," grinning.
He glared at you playfully "Maybe..maybe not, are you okay? you were gone for days, mumbling things in your sleep.. you had me worried, " he said the blush in his cheeks eminent.
You couldn't stop the giggles that exited your mouth. After being cold and distant for so long, who could've thought he would be so concerned for your well being.
"Don't laugh." he added as he tried to storm out the room, but your hand pulling his stopped him.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be rude," you say in between laughs. He furrowed his brows and quickly kissed your cheek, making you shut up. your brain malfunctioned, and you just stared at him, eyes wide and cheeks red.
Before you could say anything, he bolted out the door, yelling, "She woke up!"
And you just stared at the door in disbelief.

ANTEA
“For all the gods, this is hard!” Antea complained as she tried to pull the arrow back to aim. But the movement was difficult to manage. Her back would scream if it could. “How do you make it seem so easy?” she heard Theon chuckle as he moved to get close to her.
“It is easy for me,” he said with his usual smirk that she had grown fond to look upon.
“Truly?” Antea asked, observing the arrow resting on the bow in her hands, “Your muscles do not ache afterward? Not even a little?”
Theon chuckled again, “When you have muscles, you get used to feeling them soar.” She knew he was mocking her.
“Are you implying that I lack muscles, my lord?” She said, turning to him. “That’d be rude.” Antea still had to fight the blush on her cheeks at having him close, but it was a sweet sensation. She longed for his closeness when they were apart.
He leaned forward, his eyes full of playfulness. “It was not my intent.” Her lips turned up into a little smile, something that Theon seemed to be able to make her do with ease.
“Oh, so you were just trying to show yourself off,” the lady said, fighting the blush from appearing on her cheeks as Theon was observing every corner of her face before tilting his head to one side.
“And if I was?” He asked.
“You’d be cocky,” she answered, owning another chuckle from him.
“Is it bad?” He was leaning over, and Antea could see him doing so.
“I’m growing quite fond of your attitude,” she admitted before he pecked her lips with a quick kiss. Her grey eyes widened.
“And of my kisses?” He asked, not moving away, “Are you growing fond of them?”
The sun had risen six times since their first kiss in Antea’s chamber. And now they had kissed many times, more than Antea cared to count. But she liked to feel him so close. She adored his touch against her skin. And it had become almost impossible not to share a kiss every time they had a chance to be alone.
“You are truly so cocky,” she said, her fingers brushing his cheek. Theon smiled, kissing her nose. “It’s part of my charm, my lady,” then he took her hand, “Come. Let me show you how it’s done one more time.”
Theon led her so that her back was facing his front. His hands moved to her arms, stopping on her shoulders before pulling them a little. Antea felt her heart beat fast as his hands moved back down, brushing her arms so that he could touch her hands.
“Pull back,” he said, helping her pull the arrow, “Now let the feathers brush your lips,” Theon was speaking in her ear, and she had to do all she could not blush, but it was difficult. No one had ever been so close to her. “Keep both your eyes open, and focus on the center of the target,” she did as he told her, focusing more on not tremble under his touch. She felt him smile, “Now take a deep breath,” and she did, “And release.” When she did, the arrow brushed her lips, and in just a blink of an eye, it hit the center of the target.
Antea smiled as she turned to Theon. " Do you think I can do it on my own?"
"Why? You got doubt, my lady?" He asked moving away to take another arrow, "That would be unlike you."
Antea lowered her gaze, "Maybe once," she admitted, "Lately, I'm full of doubts," Theon frowned, observing her.
"What troubles your mind?" He asked, his eyes never left her frame.
"You'll grow bored of me," she said shyly, "Always listening to my worries," the girl had not expected him to move closer to take one of her hands in his.
"I'd want for you to share everything with me," he said, the usual smile on his lips, "And after the affection that you are giving me, I could never grow bored of you," she blushed.
"Theon!" Her shyness made him chuckle. Then his hands moved to touch her face.
"Here it is," he said, looking into her eyes, "the smile I was longing for." She felt that her lips had curved up into a wide, genuine smile—a smile that was not burdened by all her worries—just a smile. How could he make her feel so light-hearted?
"Thank you," she said from the bottom of her heart. His lips turned up as he observed her face. His eyes looked at her in a way that made her think of the songs that Sansa loved so much. It made her heart beat fast with a sweet sense of happiness.
But that made her lower her eyes.
“What is it?” He asked as Antea moved back from his touch.
“My heart feels so heavy, Theon,” she admitted, turning her back to him. She wanted desperately to feel happiness, but it terrorized her at the same time: " Outside these walls, there’s a war. A war that had already taken my father. A war that could take away my brother. Or you…” she blushed at her admission.
“Is my life that makes your heart heavier?” Theon asked, his voice hinting at surprise as if he didn’t think she would ever say those words.
“The Blackfish is to return,” Antea explained, torturing her hands. If she had had to turn, her shyness would not have let her speak the words of her heart: “You’re part of his scouts.” She took a heavy breath. “I feel torn. Stuck between knowing that the war has to keep going and wanting all to stop. And feeling ashamed because I’d wish for everything to be over.”
“Ashamed?” He asked from behind her.
“My family is my life,” she said. Her eyes found her direwolf, who had appeared once again, looking at her with those golden eyes. "I’d do anything for them. But… is it selfish on my part to wish you and my brother away from the battlefield?” Antea heard him take some steps that brought him close to her frame. She closed her eyes when she felt his hands on her arms.
“Battle is a man's duty,” that made her turn to look at him.
“And weeping should be a woman’s duty, then?” she asked with wide eyes. Theon touched her face.
“Would you weep for me if I was to fall?” She knew he was trying to understand her feelings, but those words filled her with sorrow. The thought of Theon lying on the ground, lifeless.
“You’ve promised me you’d be with me for many years,” she remembered his words when he had held her in his arms after the bloody raven arrived with the words that had changed Antea’s life.
“And those words I shall keep,” Theon looked her in the eyes, “Antea. I never want to leave you,” her fingers went to his chest, loving the feeling of his body under her touch.
“I don’t want you to leave as well.”
The feelings of his caresses followed during the day when her presence was requested elsewhere and when his duty brought him to the King. Her fingers touched her lips, remembering every kiss that the two of them had shared, and she wished for more time alone with Theon.
“Am I falling in love, girl?” she asked Shadow as she caressed her black fur. She would have liked to speak with Cyel, her dearest friend. They had always shared their secrets and gave counsel to each other. She wondered what her friend, who was soon to become her sister, would have told her.
We all shall do our part, her mother’s words echoed in her mind, causing her body to feel cold.
Was she being foolish?
Love was not meant for people like her, her siblings, or Theon. Politics mattered the most, especially in times of war. Antea felt the need to get up from her bed, suddenly nervous. Shadow got up, walking beside her as Antea circled the chamber.
Her own twin brother was to marry a Frey girl. He yet had no idea who his bride would have been.
Was she being delusional?
What if politics brought her away from Theon? Her heart ached at the thought. Antea had made a vow to help her family before anything. But at the same time, she felt so much dread thinking about her being wed to another man. Or watching Theon to be wed to another girl.
Am I in love with Theon Greyjoy?
Love was not something for people like her. She knew it, yet it hurt.
That night, she dreamt of being Shadow again. Running in the gardens with her brother, howling at the moon, and wishing to be outside those walls, hunting. Wanting blood. Lannisters' blood. She liked those dreams. She felt so powerful in those dreams. She knew she should feel ashamed of dreaming of killing. But when she woke up from those dreams, she felt that if she were in front of Cersei Lannister, she would have been able to kill her. And that thought gave her peace.
Would my father feel ashamed of me? She thought saddly.
"Princess Antea," the following morning, the voice of the guard came from outside her door, "The King."
Antea got up to let her brother enter her room. Her brows frowned when she saw that Theon was with him.
"Good morrow, sister," Robb said, kissing her forehead. Grey Wind was quick to run inside to sit next to Shadow.
"Good morrow," she answered, unsure. Then she turned to Theon, who flashed her a smirk before bowing to her.
"My princess," Antea glared at him before turning to her brother.
"What is the matter?" she asked her twin brother. He took her hand, pulling her closer to him. His fingers brushed kindly against hers.
"I have a plan," he started to explain, "I need more people to fight against the Lannisters, so I'm planning on sending Theon to his father, Baelon Greyjoy, to Pyke to rally his family to my side." Antea fought her eyes so as not to move to look at the young Greyjoy. He would have gone for many moons away from the battlefield, and that thought made Antea feel relief. Even if the thought of him being so far away made her feel like a silly little girl wishing for him to be close to her.
"It sounds like a fair plan, Robb," she said, but then a frown formed on her face, "But why tell me?" He was not looking for counsel; he had already decided.
She did not miss the look that her brother and Theon exchanged before her brother turned to look at her.
"I'll agree to Lord Baelon being restored as King in the Iron Islands if he wishes for it," he said again, not making it clearer for Antea to understand. "Theon will succeed him one day, and that day, we'll ensure an alliance between two Kings through a marriage."
Her eyes widened, "Marriage?"
Robb nodded his head, "Yours and Theon's."

Hallo! Could I request a bran x reader? Idk I’ve had loads of thoughts of like taking care/comforting bran over the past few days haha
— a/n : YES OF COURSE, absolutely love this oneee <33 i made general hcs for this one because my creative ass is lacking 🥲🔫 hope you enjoy your reading anyways !! ♡
Tumblr media
• Having known Bran for all your entire life, it's as if you already knew when he needed some warming comforting without him having to tell you.
• Before he fell from the tower, he was a pretty rebellious and independent young boy who loved climbing anywhere. He had even taught you how to climb! And in those moments, he didn't need anyone comforting him, honestly.
• But, after he fell and realised that he was never going to be able to normally walk or climb anymore, he felt pretty much useless. And there you were, by his side before and after he had some days of being unconscious on his bed.
• The first thing you did when he woke up was tightly embrace him in a hug, and greet him with a broad smile... plus some light tearing, because you were afraid of never being able to have your friend back.
“I'm so happy you're awake, Bran! I was afraid of never being able to be with you again.” you quietly mumbled, as you tightly embraced him. A wave of relief washed over you, knowing that at least, he still had some more time to spend by your side.
• Your warm, loving hug was the very first thing he experienced when he woke up, and quite honestly... he felt reassured and comforted, in a way. Our boy quickly returned the tight embraced, and buried his head on your shoulder.
• Then, you talked to him about everything that happened while he wasn't conscious, and you also provided the basic care he needed the following days, and a bit more than basic needs as well; such as: covering him with the fur of his blankets when he had to sleep, asking maidens to bring him food, even offering yourself to brush his hair if he wanted too, cuddling with him, watching over him while he slept (even if you were his age, but you thought you could protect him somehow), and a looong long list of other things you did for him.
• After that moment, he realised how much you genuinely cared for him. And he also realised, you were the only one who provided him a true sense of comfort amongst the war, plus... a light crush grew fondly on him for you... but he wouldn't admit it.
• As both of you grew up together, you sticked by his side all the time. You were a truly loyal companion, and one who attentively listened to him, and took care of him. Basically, you went through a whole bunch of shit situations, but at least you were together.
• Even after he became the Three-Eyed-Raven and the King of the Seven Kingdoms you were there to still provide him comfort and care for him like you did when you were small children. Everytime you showed him your genuine affection, his heart fluttered a bit more for you and he deeply enjoyed it... though, as always, he'd keep that to himself.
• The affection you had for him was also shown in different ways, such as: helping him calm down and relax when he was too overwhelmed by his duties and responsabilities as King, sitting on his lap, taking him to take a scroll on the gardens, leaving little love notes on top of his bed or nightstand, etc.
• And HE APPRECIATES THAT A TON <33 And of course, he'll return the favour by gifting you things like small flowers or also leaving notes on your bedroom, or just braiding your hair if you want to.
• The best thing he likes you to do to comfort him when he's too tired/overwhelmed by everything in general, is having you sit on his lap, and play with strands of his silky hair while he rants about his day, and you attentively listen.
• ^ tbh feeling your warm presence and having your fingers delicately run across his hair never fails to soothe Bran and calm him.
• Though he isn't the type of person that expresses what he thinks or feels, he genuinely enjoys your affection in a whole deeper extent, and is very fond of having you as his right hand, plus life companion.
• And also, like I said previously, he'll make sure to let you know he enjoys the comfort you give him by gift giving, taking hold of your hand, and pulling you on his lap only to wrap his arms around your body.

A Crown of Roots and Ice
Epilogue
Warning: Death, mention of grief, flashforward, descriptive anxiety-inducing moments, mention of wounds.
Words: 1, 867k
Author's note: The gif is not mine, as usual, it belongs to its owner/creator. This is my brainchild, the very first series I was able to finish writing IN MY LIFE. It took me three years, blood, sweat and tears, the love of all of my readers and the release of House of The Dragon for it to happen. I'm very proud of it, but that doesn't mean I won't change it someday ( by change it I mean rewrite some parts or add some things...) So thank you all for your support and your patience, I love you all very much.

Extra : Before Brin’s birth
Taglist: @aegonslover, @aemondsluvr, @yash98.
For love never falters when memories fade
It was a dark, cold night when the lady of the castle awakened, drenched as if she had run for miles. Something deep in her bones ached in panic. The lady couldn't fathom the reason for such a fright.
Her breath came in short, laboriously working its way from her lungs to the cold chamber, leaving her in clouds.
Heart beating erratically in her throat and the feeling of an imminent danger lurking still vivid in her mind, the lady of the castle choose to rise from the warmth of her furs to take a short walk. Hopefully, checking on her sons would calm her nerves if she saw they were alright.
For they were to be safe and sound, of course.
It had been many moons since her nightmares plagued her sleeping moments every so often. Shadows slithering in the dead of night, bringing cold and ice in their tracks. A muted grey light flashed before a freezing feeling in her bones. Red wine splattering in the snow. For months, she'd been woken up with cold sweat ruining the furs for the night, short and panicked breaths waking Bran in turn.
There was nothing he could do to ease her fright on those nights.
For weeks Lady (Y/N) had made her sons sleep between her lord husband and herself. It took a long time for Bran to convince her that their guards were adequate to protect them from anything. Even then, he offered her a long knife for her name day.
"You won't need it." He'd whisper on her neck one night, fingers sliding up and down her naked arm, in his best effort to reconcile her with the night.
"Hmm…" (Y/N) had humoured Bran but never took the knife from under the pillows. He never asked for her to either.
It was silly that the thing made her feel at ease when she slept alone in their room. For Bran was gone. Back to his duties once more. (Y/N) made her way silently in the castle's halls toward her son's shared room. Bran's knife swiftly concealed in her sleeping gown and furs still failed to ease her mood. The two guards were posted at the entrance, and a simple nod was given to her when she entered.
Her free hand had slithered its way to her belly, where a soft bump was starting to show.
Brin and Aeron were sleeping like she knew they would. Brin had his father's features, even at six years of age. Aeron held more of you, from your complexion to his mannerism. Nagga and Aeron's pup, Leviathan, named after one of their mother's many stories, curled at the feet of the boy's respective beds.
Nagga was the only one to open an eye when (Y/N) sat in the rocking chair near the door. She shushed him passing by, holding one of his ears gently between her fingers before settling. Covering herself with the embroidered duvet Meira had gifted her at Aeron's birth, the lady of the castle let her anxiety diminish at the sight of her sleeping sons.
Breaths evening to a slow, repeating rhythm, eyes growing heavy with the lack of stimulation, (Y/N) let herself get caught in the room's darkness and the duvet's warmth, finding herself floating in comfort for the first time in too many nights.
It was a bit later that the lady's eyes opened once more. Now in the shadowed room of her children. Her heart was racing, sweat rolling down in beads from the nape of her neck to her spine, yet an aching cold held the room captive. Her breath once more elevated before her eyes, paler in the room's darkness than the rest.
Lady (Y/N)'s eyes travelled from her eldest son's bed -closer to the door- then to her secondborn, farther away, scanning for anything moving that shouldn't be there. Nothing. She tried to bring warmth back to her nose. The room was colder than when she'd entered it.
A light 'thud' from outside made her heart in a tormenting frenzy, faster than it had already been. Instinctively, her hand clenched around the knife's handle and tossed the duvet aside as she rose from her seat. Her furs followed next. Arms free to move as she pleased, only encombered by the nightdress she wore. Moving from the rocking chair to stand closer to her eldest son's bed, she took the stance Bran showed her when she'd asked.
(Y/N) made sure, however, not to stand in front of the door, so she could keep the element of surprise like Walton had taught her long ago. Nagga and Leviathan stood right in front of the door, the fur around their neck raised and low growls escaping their throat.
Nagga moved first, jumping on the door (Y/N) hadn't known being opened. The dog must have surprised whoever had been on the other side, for a yelp echoed on the stone walls as the creature lashed at them.
A clatter soon followed the chaos, and a shadow slithered its way inside the room, slashing Leviathan's neck as it pounced toward it. Cutting its roar short, leaving only the wet choking sound of air and blood mixing.
Lady (Y/N) didn't need more time to think when she jumped forward, slashing with all her might at the grayish shadow before her. It tried to attack her too, but (Y/N) jumped back just like her older brother had once shown her. It stopped for a second, and the lady took action once more. Dark glare met icy cold emptiness for the first time before combat was launched.
Grabbing a limb and twisting to turn it towards her. She'd managed to pierce the skin, she thought, when a heavy hand threw her aside.
Cold consumed her ribs like a lake suddenly becoming ice, and the shock of her back meeting the stone cut her exhale short, and a cry escaped the woman's lips before she could stop it, but she made no movement to feel the injury. 'Must not show weakness.' Walton had once said. She hadn't had the chance to take a new breath or regain her sense of orientation when something heavy sat on her chest.
Lady (Y/N)'s hands rose instinctively toward those of her attacker. She caught them before the blade could break the skin of her neck, yet she could still feel the coldness of it too close to her throat for her comfort. Unable to release one hand to grab her knife, she tried using her legs to destabilize the thing on her.
"Mother!"
Nagga's growls and sharp calls must have woken the boys, (Y/N) knew it. The sobs she could hear were those of Aeron.
With a new desperation, she pushed the hands farther up and grabbed her knife, knocking the blade with her arm as she struck. Icy cold with yet a fiery warmth following it flowed in the armed she used as a shield, the weapon stuck in her shoulder, and a grunt left the lady. She didn't try to cower, instead trying to strike once more.
Aiming to hurt or destabilizing over killing just yet. It managed to push its damned blade deeper inside her shoulder despite the lady's trashing around.
Pushing what was over her to the side, she struck it again in the head. Then, again and again, she made sure it stayed down before turning to her sons.
"Stay here." Her breath was coming in short, and she must have twisted her ankle while falling, for pain shot through it as she walked.
The lady exited the room to join a whining yet still growling Nagga on the other side. It was slowly losing its battle against the assassin, blood wetting its fur as it had Leviathans.
Making the best of the crouched position her assailant was in, Lady (Y/N) lunged toward it and struck again, aiming for the face.
Once again, cold erupted in her, the lungs incapable of drawing breath for a short time. The assassin had lodged its blade under her breast. (Y/N) moved before it could remove the weapon and kicked at the creature to keep it away.
The commotion had risen the guards toward the boy's room, and soon, the second assassin was eliminated. All happened in a blur, and the lady was removed before it could resolve itself completely. With the danger now taken care of, she could barely stand alone and was forcefully escorted back to her room. Standing between two tall guards making her feel like she was a little girl again. They could not contain her before getting the maids to bring her sons and Nagga.
Apparently, they removed the bodies of the intruders and burned them. The two guards and Leviathan were brought out of the room to be given proper funerals. When mother and sons were finally bunched together, safe, warm and loved, the lady kissed both her boy to sleep.
While being fussed over by maesters, Lady (Y/N) asked for a crow to be sent to her husband. "So he'd be informed of the situation."
She also asked for her brother Urion to be sent a messenger informing him of the situation. Breathing was becoming laborious, and her cough sounded wetter by the minute.
In the letter addressed to her brother, the maester wrote that lady (Y/N) had not been conscious when her death occurred. Sleeping with her children, exhausted from the battle and the blood loss. It was also written to the man that Bran was yet to know about his wife's death, as his crow left four hours before Urion's.
Brin and Aeron cried their little heart out when a maid ushered them out of their mother's cold embrace once the sun came out. Maester somberly nodded their heads as they covered the lady of the castle's face.
Bran could remember the funerals held for her. The crown of roots placed on her hair, a dress in the Stark's colours and a blanket of her family's crest placed as if she was resting beneath it. He could remember the cold in his chest as he watched the fire take her form.
The empty hole it left in his heart as he clenched his son's shoulders.
He could feel the brief warmth of tears rolling on his face before the wind turned them into ice droplets.
Bran could also remember -being shaken as he was sitting in the chariot trailing him to King's Landing- the imagery of a Lady carved in the rocks. He could still see the stone sepulture, both as it was first and as he saw it when he was a boy. The eroded face was once detailed as his aunt was. The sculpture's hands crumpled from the touch of those her loss had hurt the most.
Bran could remember all those things of the ghost he saw that night when winter had lost. But he hadn't found anything relating her story in the archives of the Starks. Brandon's wife had never been mentioned. Only his firstborn Brin, well, Brandon, was named.
Bran could remember that her statue was the only one made with a crown.
And it made his heart soar.

Tumblr media
in meetings with the council, he would try to avoid eye contact with you but he just can't help but sneak a little glance
at first no one noticed your escapades, but they were soon starting to get suspicious
once Brienne came up to you with Podrick trailing behind her (Bran had let him have the day off) and asked you if you and Bran had something going on
how you managed to keep your cool was astonishing
sometimes you'd both skip meetings and have some fun in his chambers
that was when EVERYONE figured it out
Tumblr media
You had known the Starks since you were a child. Of course, you didn't have favourites, but your time was well spent around their first girl, Sansa.
You both held a soft spot for each other. Okay, you did have favouites.
But another Stark held a more special place in your heart.
Bran.
Unfortunately you were not allowed to follow Sansa to Kingslanding all those years ago, and you couldn't stop Robb from leaving Winterfell.
Since then, there were only four Starks left. And for all that time, you've been with Bran.
You've always had feelings for Bran, but they were only ever shown when you two were alone.
Tumblr media
Once again, you and Bran had skipped an important meeting just to spend time with each other.
"We can't keep skipping these meetings Bran, Brienne keeps asking more questions and Tyrion keeps getting more annoyed by the da-"
Bran cut you off with a peck on the lips. "Tyrion isn't the King."
"He may as well be if you keep this up." Sighing, you sat yourself up and placed your hand on his cheek. "The kingdom is more important than me, you need to put them first."
Bran lifted himself and rested against the bed frame. "But my Queen is important to me also. It not only this Kingdom I hold in my hands, but you and the rest of the world too."
"I don't want to the people to riot if they hear you are with me, you and Tyrion cannot control everyone."
"I will if I have to, because I would do anything for you." He brought your hand to his lips and pressed a gentle kiss to the back of it, then placed your palm above his heart.
You were truly his Queen.

So if you don’t like all of the cutesy symbols and the aesthetic on here, you can also read the story on Wattpad without all that stuff :) also I’m making minor changes to the previous chapters so uhhh don’t mind me lol
Tumblr media Tumblr media
One night, Rhaella and Lady Stark were with Bran, by his side. It's been a month since she woke up.
Now, they had to wait for Bran's turn to awaken.
He's not dead, I know it, she always told herself.
Rhaella read aloud a book about the history of Winterfell as Lady Stark was making a protective craft. She said that only a mother could make one.
Robb decided to stay to look after his mother. She never once left Bran's side. To the point where Rickon was following Robb around. Robb walked in complaining about it, until he noticed something wrong outside.
"Is there something wrong?" Rhaella asked.
"Both of you stay in here," he said. He quickly ran out of the chamber, leaving them confused. They both rose up from their chairs to look out the window. There was a lot of commotion going on out there. The door opened, making them turn around swiftly. A man they've never seen before.
"You're not supposed to be here," the man said.
"None of you are supposed to be here." They both looked at each other wondering what he meant.
He turned to Bran, "it's mercy for him, really." He drew out his dagger.
"NO!" They both yelled.
Lady Stark ran to the man, preventing him from getting any closer to her son as Rhaella jumped on the bed, throwing herself on Bran. She grabbed the blade, squeezing it so hard that her hands were bleeding.
Rhaella, not knowing what to do, could only think to herself. She didn't know what came over her to use herself as a shield. In truth, they haven't known each other for that long, but he was the closest thing to family, they all were. No, this won't be the day he dies. It can't be. I won't let him, even if it kills me! That led herself to ask the question, would he have done the same for me?
The man threw her off of him and made his way to the bed.
"No!" Rhaella shouted. "Leave us alone!"
Before the man could stab her, Bran's dire wolf bolted in the room, quickly biting at the man's hand. They watched in awe and horror as the wolf dug its teeth into his neck, killing him instantly.
"Thank you," Rhaella whispered to the wolf. He let out a little whine and laid down. At that moment, they knew Bran would be protected, especially now that Summer was huge.
The next day, Rhaella showed Lady Stark where they both fell. They entered inside and went to the top floor. There wasn't really anything in the room. Just a lot of moss, vines, and leaves growing in there. "I found something," Lady Stark said. She showed Rhaella a long strand of golden, blonde hair. Rhaella gasped, remembering the day the king arrived and the feast. The Queen. Her hair was that color. But why would she be in here? And who was she with? "We have to tell Robb," Rhaella said.
They called for a meeting with Robb, Theon, Maester Luwin, and Ser Rodrick in the godswood.
"Pushed?" Robb asked them. "Are you certain?"
"Bran never falls." Theon added.
"We found a strand of blonde hair in that tower," Lady Stark said. "Bran must of saw something he wasn't supposed to see."
"Which led him to get pushed." Luwin said, putting the pieces together.
"What should we do my lady?" Ser Rodrick asked.
"I'll ride to king's landing," she replied. "It had to have been the Lannisters. I must tell Ned."
"Are you sure you want to do this?" The maester asked her. She gave a nod.
"They think they can just hurt the people I love and get away with it?" Robb asked. "And then send an assassin? They will pay for this."
That made Rhaella blush. He loves me!
Lady Stark turned to Rhaella, "I need you to stay by Bran's side. To watch over him while I'm gone.
He's lucky to have a friend like you. I know this is scary, but I need you to stay strong for me." She gave her a kiss on her forehead.
"Yes, my lady," Rhaella said determinedly. "I will."
After she left Winterfell with Ser Rodrick, Rhaella did exactly what she asked her to do. She never left Bran's side. She was very concerned for Bran's health. Since he was in a coma, he couldn't eat properly, only honey and water. His body was growing more frail by the day. Nearly becoming just bones and skin. Rhaella prayed every single day for Bran to wake up, hoping one day any gods out there would hear her.
After feeding Bran one night, Maester Luwin said there was a gift for Rhaella. It was a fancy looking chest.
"It says it's from Majester Illyrio from Pentos," he told her. "Also, Lord Stark sent the both of you gifts." He placed Bran's gift at the side of his bed.
From what she could tell, it looked like a sword wrapped up. Then he gave her gift, it was small and wrapped up. She unwrapped it and smiled. It was a doll.
Tumblr media
The doll was quite creepy, but she cherished the thoughtful gift anyway.
After Luwin left the room, she opened the chest.
She let out a small gasp, inspecting the gift. It was a dragon egg! Next to it was a letter, from Daenerys!
Dear Rhaella,
I hope you are doing well my sister. I'm afraid I have some news. I was married off in trade for a Dothraki army. His name is Khal Drogo, and he looks big and scary. We are about to leave with the Khalaasar. I didn't want to marry him, or anyone. I just want to go home. To finally see you! Sometimes when I get scared...I say that I am the blood of the dragon. Dragon's are fearless and brave which is what I should be. You are the only person in this world that brings me happiness. I hope you enjoy the gift I sent you.
Love, Daenerys.
Poor Daenerys, I guess we both have to be brave right now. More than ever.
"Look Bran, I have a dragon egg! Too bad Arya isn't here to see it." Rhaella told him. She liked talking to Bran while he slept. Deep down, it felt like he could hear her. "Bran, please wake up," she whispered, holding his motionless hand. "I need you."
A few tears fell from her eyes onto the furs of the bed. She hesitated at first, but then gave him a peck on the cheek before leaving. She reached for the door knob until she heard a groan. Startled, she turned back to the bed.
"Rhaella?" He asked weakly.
"Bran!" She shouted. She jumped onto the bed and gave him a big hug, "You're awake, finally awake!"
Rhaella told the others about the great news. She could tell Robb wanted to cry, but knowing him, he didn't, at least not in front of her. Rickon, of course, did.
"You shouldn't try walking," Maester Luwin told him. "At least, not yet. Your body is extremely weak and thin because of the coma. If you slept longer, you likely would have been dead."
"If Bran needs to go somewhere, what will he do?" Rhaella asked the Maester. "We will have Hodor carry him," he replied.
"I had a strange dream," Bran said, as he was eating some pigeon pie. "I was falling. Falling the whole time, without hitting the ground. There was a raven there too. It had three eyes. It told me 'fly or die.'"
"Don't think about it too much, it was only a dream child," Luwin said.
Rhaella wanted to tell them about her strange dream, but maybe the Maester was right. Perhaps it was only a dream.
— DAENERYS ೃ࿔*:・
Tumblr media
"I hit him," Daenerys said, panicking. "I hit the dragon."
Dany couldn't take Viserys' tantrums anymore. He hurt one of her handmaidens, Doreah, because she told him Dany wanted him to come to supper. He took it as a command. He tried to strike Dany down, but something woke inside of her and she fought back.
"Your brother Rhaegar was the last dragon," Ser Jorah Mormont explained. He had met Dany during her wedding, where he swore his loyalty to House Targaryen. "Viserys is less than a shadow of a snake."
"He is still the true king," She reminded him.
"The Magister told the three of us that the common people were praying for his return."
"Three?" The man asked.
"Forgive me," she said. "It wasn't just me and my brother living with Illyrio, our cousin was there with us. My sister, Rhaella."
"I believe I never heard of her." Jorah admitted.
"She was good," Daenerys said with a smile. "A good, sweet, intelligent, and beautiful girl. She was the only thing that I cared about in this world." Her smile faded away, "and he sold her away from me."
"Where is she now?"
"In Winterfell, with the Starks. The people that betrayed my family."
"Forgive me Khalessi, but the Starks are an honorable house. Trust me when I say this, she is in good hands."
"I will get her back one day, I swear it." Daenerys said. "I pray everyday that she is okay, what do you pray for Ser Jorah?"
"Home."
"So do I," she said. I hope she received her gift and the letter.
— RHAELLA ೃ࿔*:・
Rhaella and Bran listened to Old Nan tell her crazy stories. A lot of them were quite strange and boring most of the time. Bran stroked the fur of his dire wolf. He decided to name him Summer. Summer grew so big that soon they would be able to ride on his back. What Rhaella loved about Summer was his beautiful features. He had fire-like brown eyes and fur on his back.
Bran's eleventh name day came and went quickly, but the boy was too depressed to celebrate. He said he'd rather die than be crippled for life, which broke Rhaella's heart. Soon after her eleventh name day passed, but all she requested for was lemon cakes to eat while by Bran's bedside.
Both of them could hear the shouts and screams of Rickon playing with Shaggydog and Greywind outside. "I want to be out there," Bran mumbled. His eyes stung. She could see in his eyes he wanted to cry.
"Would you like to hear a story about a knight?" Old Nan asked as she sowed. "Ser Duncan the Tall perhaps?"
"I don't want to listen to that," Bran said, his voice petulant. The topic of knights seemed to bother him. Rhaella didn't blame his bitterness. The one thing he ever wanted was taken away from him. "Yeah, you already told Ser Duncan's stories many times," Rhaella sighed.
She loved the adventures of Dunc and Egg, but she heard the story so many times, she thought she would pull her hair out.
"It's the scary ones I like." Bran said lowly.
"Oh, my sweet summer child," Old Nan said quietly, "what do you know of fear? Fear is for the winter, my little lord, when the snows fall a hundred feet deep and the ice wind comes howling out of the north. Fear is for the long night, when the sun hides its face for years at a time, and little children are born and live and die all in darkness while the direwolves grow gaunt and hungry, and the white walkers move through the woods."
The children were deeply invested in the story. It was something Rhaella never heard about before, true or not, it intrigued her.
They continued to listen until Theon opened the door, making them snap out of the trance and jump.
"I don't wish to see anyone!" Bran said, coldly.
"I'm afraid you don't have a choice," Theon said.
"Lord Tyrion wants to see you. Hodor!" The tall giant waltzed in the room, "Hodor?"
"Take Bran to the Great Hall," he commanded.
Hodor did as he said, picking Bran up and left the room. Theon and Rhaella followed behind.
"What does he want from Bran?" She asked the Greyjoy. "I'm not sure, he wanted to see you too."
Once we walked in, she could hear Lord Tyrion say, "so it's true . . ."
Hodor stood before Tyrion with Bran in his arms.
"Hello Bran," he said to the child. He turned his attention to Rhaella, "and hello to you too, Rhaella. Do either of you remember what happened?"
"They barely have any memory of what happened before the accident," Luwin answered for them as he sat at the main table with Robb. With Lord Stark gone, Robb had to take on the role as Lord of Winterfell.
"That's unfortunate," the Lannister said.
"Why are you here?" Robb asked.
"Would you be as kind to ask your charming companion to neil? I'm afraid my neck is starting to hurt," Tyrion asked Bran. He was different from his siblings. He was an "imp" Arya said. He was as tall as Rhaella, and can't grow anymore than that. Hodor obeyed Bran's request to neil.
"Do the both of you like to ride?" He asked them.
Both of the children answered yes. Bran added,
"well, I did like to." Luwin wasn't sure if Bran could ever walk again, but he said they still needed to give Bran more time to heal.
"Lucky for you, I have brought the finest horses for you and blueprints of a special saddle that can even let cripples ride," he told him. "I'm not a cripple." Bran said. "I'm not sure yet."
"Well in case you are, the saddle will still work perfectly for you." Tyrion gave Bran the blueprints of the saddle. It made Rhaella feel warm inside to see Bran's eyes light up as he looked at the paper.
"And for you," Tyrion said, turning to her. " have something else as well. I'm afraid it's not blueprints, but I assure you that you will love it."
Rhaella's eyes brightened up as Tyrion opened a small case. Inside of it was a beautiful golden ring with the Targaryen sigil on it. "I found this where we have the Targaryen artifacts kept. I thought you should have it," he explained. "It is believed to be one of the many jewelry that Daemon Targaryen gave his niece, Rhaenerya."
"Wow," Rhaella exclaimed. "Thank you . . ."
"Is this some kind of trick?" Robb asked, confused and defensive.
"I have a special place in my heart for cripples, bastards, and broken things," Tyrion replied, smiling at the children. They both gave a smile back.
"You have done them a kindness," Robb said.
"Winterfell is welcomed to you."
"No need for the false loyalties, Stark," Tyrion said. "For I will be leaving shortly."
Before he could ride off, Rhaella ran outside to the courtyard. He noticed her approaching him, "ah, it's you again. I had the both of your horses placed in the stables. May the gods bless the both of you."
"I . . .I thought your family hated me," Rhaella admitted. "You are a kind person, I thank you again."
Tyrion smiled, "I am not like my family, unlike them, I have a heart. Take this as advice, young girl. As someone who is not only Targaryen, but a foreigner as well, you will face hardships. Take what makes you different, and be proud of it. That way, no one can bring you down."
Rhaella nodded and watched as he rode off with his men. She went over to the stables to see the horses. Her horse had a beautiful white coat with wavy mane so light, it almost looks white instead of blonde. Bran's horse was a beautiful jet black color with black mane. They complimented each other beautifully, like the stars and the night sky.

Bran spent the rest of the morning getting sigil lessons with Maester Luwin. Rhaella practiced her archery with Theon Greyjoy while she waited for the lessons to be over. Lord Tyrion’s gift lifted Bran’s spirits, but only ever so slightly. He was always a cheerful boy, a sweet Summer child. Now, he was as cold as winter.
Afterwards, Rhaella and Bran spent the afternoon sitting in the godswood under the weirwood tree. He laid on the ground, resting his head on Rhaella's thigh as she read the history book. "Arya would be furious if she found out we finished the Dance of the Dragons," Rhae chuckled.
"Maybe she should have stayed with us." Bran said, bitterly.
She continued to read, "when Rhaenerya's last alive son was crowned king, the small folk came up with many names. Aegon the Unlucky, Aegon the Unhappy, or Dragonbane. Grand Maester Munkun called him the Broken King."
"Aegon the Broken," Bran said. He sighed. "Bran the Broken."
Rhaella slammed the book shut. "You are not broken, Bran!"
"What do you call a boy who can barely walk properly anymore? Broken, that's what." He said coldly. "Now, I can't even be a knight at all! That's all I ever wanted . . ."
"Well, then," Rhaella said, standing back up. "I guess I'll just have to help you walk better again!"
"What do you mean?" He asked cocking his head.
"How about this, everyday, we come here and practice your walking," she said. "Maester Luwin did say you can walk, just not as much as you used to."
"You'd really help me?" He asked. She was shocked he would even ask that.
"Of course!" She said taking his hand to help him up. "Not only are you my betrothed, you are my dearest friend. All I could ever want is for you to be happy." She wrapped his arm around her shoulder, "I'd also like for my egg to hatch, so one day we can fly on dragon back and eat nothing but desserts!"
"I'm glad that we met." He smiled. She smiled back at the Stark boy, "so am I."
