I walked to Issac's chambers to check up on him. He told me to come in and he was writing. "Are you alright issac..?" sitting down on one of his chairs. "Why wouldn't I be." He says shaking.
"You seemed troubled at breakfast. Please issac you can tell me anything I won't tell mother." I shake my head so he'd know I'm serious. "I got a girl a pregnant." He says. "She's not a whore right.." I say. "No.. I don't know. She's one of the lady's suitors ." He says trembling.

What could this mean. There's only really 5 suitors in the castle. And one of them is mine. It can't possibly be Mara she was in a good mood this morning. "What's her name." I say, praying that it is not who I think it is. "Something like Yara or" "Mara..." of course I'm going to be mad. Mara is the only friend I have in this castle.

    "You know what this will result in issac. You think mother and father will let a fucking servant become queen?! No! You think they're going to let a pregnant lady stand in their castle carrying YOUR child?! They won't let this happen. They'll send you away, they'll send her away.."

      "I know that Helena. But.. I love her. She's not a whore I swear. She can become a lady, because I know how much you'd like to become Queen.."
Issac says. He's right about one thing, She can become a lady, maybe I'm just worried about what happens to my brother. "I don't want to be Queen." Issac stares at me in confusion. "For now I don't. I wanna learn how to hunt, how to fight. I wanna travel." I say. But issac starts laughing. "You? Tuh' mother or father will never let that happen."

      "They won't but I will. I won't sit here in this castle, there's nothing to do here." I walk towards the door. "Whatever you say, and uhm.. keep that secret between us. I'll eventually tell mother and father." He says. I smile and walk out the door.

      Walking down the castle hallways I question myself. 𝑊ℎ𝑦 𝑤𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑎𝑛𝑦𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝐼 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡？𝑊ℎ𝑦 𝑐𝑎𝑛'𝑡 𝐼 𝑏𝑒 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒 𝑗𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑜𝑛𝑐𝑒？
      I go on with my day, packing, watch the men train secretly, like I always do, just basically what normal ladies do.

      I attend family dinner wearing my hair down. "How was your day mother?" I say because everyone is quiet. "It was alright we had visitors, some messages sent of what's going on in the south and in Kings Landing, right Thomas." Mother says. He clears his throat. "Yes! It was a fine day. Even though it wasn't nice outside but still a good day." I sigh and eat the rest of my dinner. The castle is like this everyday and so is dinner. Nothing exciting happening. Nothing we're involved in.

      Issac looks over at me. He thinks I'll tell father and mother about his problems. I go back to eating my dinner.

I put on my nightgown and wait for Mara to come in. "Good evening My lady" she comes in. "Sit down Mara." She puts down my brush and sits. "Are you carrying my brothers child?" I say facing towards.

      She starts shaking and tearing up. "I'm sorry My Lady but I love him. I didn't mean for this to happen at all."

      "I am not mad. Your my friend Mara. I'm here for you okay? I won't let my father or mother do anything to you." I face towards the mirror again. "You may continue." Looking at her through the mirror. "Of course My lady. Thank you." she wipes her tears and rushes over.

      I blow out my candles and crawl into bed after Mara left the room. So many thoughts going through my mind. So many things I want to do. But my options are limited and are forced to stay that way.
