This was not the plan

The demi god and the Dragon

The journey from kings landing to Caletara felt shorter than it was to the Lannister queen. Alex stared up at the darkening skies she held out her palm as a single snowflake fell into her open palm.. she watched as the snowflake turned into water before closing it with a sigh turning back into her cabin. ' winter has at long last come for the south'

Caletara

Alexandra stood before her army , donning a winter uniform— her dual katanas criss crossed on her back. She inhaled a deep breath at the 6000 women standing dressed in their armor in both an attempt to protect them from the blistering winds and cold in the north and the attacks from the wight walkers.

"We will head to fight a new enemy.. or maybe an old one depending on your view." She paused " It's not the queen in the south but rather a king in the north. An army of dead is heading towards us where I could sail Far East and ignore the army of dead.. but I cannot call myself a queen, a warrior , a healer, a human if I turn a blind eye to the army of dead.

Months ago I asked you to stand with me as we fight for the future queen of the seven kingdoms.. and once more I will ask you to put your lives on the line to ensure that this evil does not win, I will as I always have — I will fight beside you, for you, I will give you a helping hand , I will heal your wounds and I will care for your families if you were too perish.. this war is the first of many.. there is a evil in this world that needs to be destroyed" she caught her high priestess's eye " I will fight until there is no breath in my lungs — to destroy this evil that seeks to destroy us.. will you ? Will you my people stand with your queen as we ride into a war we might not return home from.. will you?!" She shouted over the crowd. Alexandra watched for a brief second until their feet stomped the ground booming through the gathering place — the words were" we fight for our queen ! She fights for us !" Echoed through the warriors.

She held up her hand.. " My people .. we will fight this evil and we will return victorious even if I have to die for it to be gone it will be done ! That is my promise to you!"

"Long live the queen! Long live Queen Alexandra!" Alex nodded with a small smile on her lips and nodded to her guards .

"Prepare to board the ships" she said walking past them and headed through the winding halls. She was on her way to say her goodbyes to her consort but was surprised or maybe not when she found the girl standing in the hallway an unreadable look marring her gorgeous face.

Her cloak hung off her shoulder as she took in her young fiancé " I know I promised to marry you tomorrow.." she started But a finger stopped her from continuing.

"No need to explain your grace." Alex nodded taking away the hand but placed a gently kiss on its palm.

"When I return .. we will marry.." she whispered " perhaps a double wedding" she joked

Clara smiled " As long as I get to stand in the temple of his lord Raygon and pledge my life to yours I will be eternally happy."

Alex nodded , she gently cupped Clara's cheeks " I love you.." she whispered softly bringing their lips together in a soft kiss " and I will return to you.. always ."

Clara returned the kiss harder .. she was afraid — she had heard of this new enemy in the north. And she knew that her queen would be on the front lines.. fighting it.. it scared her tremendously but at the same time filled her with immense pride that her queen wasn't one to watch as her people fought.. she would fight right along beside them.

"I love you my queen.. forever and always.." she declared strongly not flushing or stammering over her words.

Alexandra savored the taste of her young love , before regretfully pulling away.. "I must go" she whispered
