"You do have a point, girl.It would be wrong to assume Tyrion plotted the murder, but your sister has fled.There seems to be no sign of her" Tywin said to Eve as they both sat in his solar."I know Sansa quite well and she would never do this.She did not like Joffrey after our father had been executed but she would never kill him.She is not a murderer, my lord". Tywin sat in his chair, rubbing his temples."But why would she flee?.I don't believe it's a coincidence she disappeared right after His Grace died". She fled because Joffrey's sudden death had been an opportunity that presented itself, and she could not turn it down. She did say she had a plan?. Was her plan to kill Joffrey and flee?. Perhaps, Joffrey had beaten and tortured her to the point she wanted him dead. Even if she killed Joffrey, I could hardly blame her.

"I do not know, my lord, but what I do know is my sister is not a murderer".Tywin paced the room, looking at Eve once again."The Queen Regent however insists that Tyrion killed Joffrey.Everybody at the feast saw him hand the goblet and he poured the wine himself".Eve shook her head."I do not see any sense in Lord Tyrion being in the dungeons". There was a knock on the door.Eve did not bother looking back to see who it was."Come in", Tywin said as he returned to his seat."Jaime". Jaime Lannister?. "Do sit down".The knight took a seat next to Eve."Father, I ask you to spare Tyrion.He would never kill any of Cersei's children. Send him to the wall but do not execute him" the knight pleaded with his father."I'll do anything you ask me to".Tywin arched a brow."Anything?".Eve shifted in her seat, waiting for this to be over. "I could leave, my lord" Eve said, slowly rising from her seat. Tywin asked her to stay. The patriarch of House Lannister stared at Jaime, thinking what he could ask of him and then finally he spoke."You are to leave the Kingsguard—".Jaime corrected him."I have been dismissed by His Grace".Tywin seemed irritated that he had been interrupted."You will have to become my heir, take a wife and sire heirs". What woman would want to marry Jaime Lannister?. He had cavorted with his sister all these years. Who would want to marry a sister-fucker?. Jaime nodded.

"I will".It shocked Eve how he had readily agreed to take a wife.She believed it was his sister he loved, having fathered all three of her children. He must really love Lord Tyrion. "I have picked your wife for you" Tywin said, glancing at Eve. I wonder who it could be. "Already?.Who is it, father?".Eve could sense how nervous and unwilling Jaime had been."She's sitting right next to you". No!.No!. "Father..." Jaime was equally as shocked.Eve could only look down at her lap.Whatever resolve she had shattered in that moment. "Tyrion is to take the black and you are to wed Eve Stark and sire heirs".No.

Soon there was another knock on the door."Come in".A guard spoke."The Queen".Jaime and Tywin both rose to greet the Queen.Eve slowly rose from her seat as soon as she felt all their eyes on her."Take a sit, Your Grace".Cersei gritted her teeth at the sight of Jaime and Eve sitting together."Yes, father.You needed to speak to me.Will Tyrion hang for what he's done?".Tywin eyed Jaime and Eve."No.Tyrion will take the black.It seems unlikely he would have poisoned Joffrey, given how Joffrey was the one to ask him to be his cupbearer, and you are to be wed to Loras Tyrell". A look of shot and disgust was woven across her face."What?!.I am to marry that pillow-biter?!".Tywin shook her."An alliance is needed to further cement ties between the Tyrells and the Lannisters.You are the Queen.Tommen is to become King.You have to do whatever it takes to keep him on the throne".Cersei took a step back, not believing a word her father had just said."And why are these two sitting together?!".Cersei glared at Eve."They are to be wed on the morrow".On the morrow?. "I agreed to let Tyrion take the black only if Jaime agreed to become my heir, take a wife and sire heirs".
