Hoping to finally have time to finish these stories and move onto others in waiting. Sorry for the wait.

"You need to take care of any injures that filth uncured upon you." I demand from my husband as he sits and eats after that fight. He looks at me unimpressed.

"Moon of my life sit and eat. That filth barely scratched me. I am fine." He says trying to soothe my worries.

The khaleesar watch us as we bicker. Dany is eating without looking at either of us. "You will be seen to by me or I'll drag you to the healers myself." A couple of Drogos blood riders stood at my threat. "Sit back down before I put you down myself." I growl at them before Drogo stands up.

"I will be seen to by you then Moon of my life but we shall talk about your anger after." I give him a sharp nod before leading him back to our tent. Once at the tent I riffle through my things before finding the med kit that I had packed as a just in case.

"Sit my Sun and Stars and I shall begin." Drogo sits on the bed letting me finally work on the scratch to his shoulder that the filth put on him. "You can be angry with me for disrespecting you in front of our people but I will not apologize for worrying about your health. What would become of our child if you weren't there to help teach him?"

Drogo's face snaps to me as I finally turn back to him with the medicine. "You are with child?" He asks reaching towards my stomach that protects the life growing within.

I stand before him and watch as one of his hands rest on my hip and the other glides gently across my womb eyes sparkling with the knowledge of his child residing inside. "Yes."

"This is why you were like that out there. The fear of losing me?"

"Yes."

"I am alright Moon of My Life. So is our child you bear. I am not upset with your actions out there but we must make haste to Vaes Dothrak where you will meet with the Dosh Khaleen and eat a horse heart."

"I know the ritual My Sun. Let's get your wound dealt with. Then we can announce it to Dany and after, our people." I say as I start cleaning the wound and stitching it closed.

After I close the wound and wrap it to help keep it clean I start to put the supplies away. "Moon of My Life, I will try to not get injured again. I am sorry I worried you, but I will not allow our people to say such lies about you. I love you."

I look up at him and smile, "My Sun and Stars, I love you too. Come we must announce it to Dany and the others."

I take him by the hand and lead him out of our tent to see our people gathered before us. Drogo stands next to me and looks down at me and nods.

"Tonight we feast as the Khaleesi has told me of such great news! Tonight we feast for the child in her womb! Tomorrow we begin the ride to Vaes Dothrak!"

The people cheer and start to prep for a feast. Dany comes rushing from the departing crowd looking excited. "Is it true mother?? I will become a big sister???"

I smile at her before me and nod. "It is. We wanted to tell you first but everyone was waiting for us outside the tent."

"It's alright mother. If you are with child and it's healthy is all I care about. Why do we have to go to Vaes Dothrak? What's there?" She asks looking confused.

I sigh and lead her around the camp after letting my husband know and waiting for a couple bloodriders to accompany us. "Dany, Vaes Dothrak is the Dothraki home. It is where all the khaleesars may gather together. There they do not allow any blood to be spilled inside the city. As I am the Khaleesi and with child, we must venture to Vaes Dothrak. There a ceremony will take place and a prophecy is spoken about the unborn child. If I have a male child it shows I am a strong Khaleesi. If I have a female child the Dosh Khaleen will tell Khal Drogo that I am unfit to be his Khaleesi. I do not know what may happen if I have two or even three children growing inside me. The Dothraki do not have any records or a Khaleesi birthing two or more at a time. This ceremony will involve the Dosh Khaleen chanting while I eat a horse heart in front of the Khal."

She gasps and stops. "What do you mean eat a horse heart?!"

I turn and smile at her. "I mean that I will have to eat an uncooked horse heart and keep it down to help show that I am a strong Khaleesi."

She stares at me with her mouth agape, "a-and if you can not keep it down?"

I stand straight up, "Then the Khal will be forced to take another and call them his Khaleesi. I would only be a pleasure slave."

She crumples into the sand struggling to come to comprehend the situation.

I turn to the bloodriders, "Please take her to her tent. She must come to understand what is to come."

They nod and before they leave one of them turns to me, "You are a strong Khaleesi. Even if the Dosh Khaleen commanded it the Khal would never take another and would not treat you like a pleasure slave. We all will help you to prepare for the ceremony. Tonight we can start with a mares heart uncooked. We have a mare that is too old and will not last the journey home."

"I thank you. Have it be brought to me please tonight. I will eat the heart and prove that our Khal's Khaleesi is strong." I say before turning and walking to find my husband.
