          Ardin stood hands clasped in front of stomach and watched as Daenerys entered the massive bedroom, "I want you to know that you are not a slave. Even though I bought you, you are free. You can do as you please." Ardin contemplated this for a moment then said,
"I would like to offer my services to you." Daenerys smiled,
"Then I'll be grateful for your help, but for the moment there's someone who would like to speak with you." As she stepped aside Ardin felt her hands begin to sweat and her stomach felt as if she'd swallowed stones. Jorah came into the room, his eyes meeting Ardin's without a word, Daenerys slipped out of the room leaving the two alone. Ardin had imagined this moment for years, the two of them alone together, but she found herself unable to think of anything to say, nor could she bring herself to move closer. However Jorah didn't seem to share her nerves, he took slow but even steps toward her he stopped just a few inches away from her she looked over his face studying how much he'd changed since they last saw each other. It was odd, the way time seemed to change people yet Jorah didn't feel like a stranger to her they were both older, and perhaps it was just the thought of him as the young man he'd been when she realized that she was in love with him but her heart and her mind were still in agreement that she loved him. Jorah was the first to speak,
"Are you...Are you alright?" She smiled up at him,
"I'm fine, your friend is very kind. I hardly know her yet she did this for me."
"Daenerys has a big heart. How did you manage to end up here?" Ardin shrugged,
"It's a long story, I'll tell you some other time, but I have a question for you...are you... are you oh seven hells are you in love with her?" Jorah was silent for a moment Ardin's heart pounded in her ears then he started chuckling,
"No I'm not. I thought a long time ago that I might've been but no." Ardin smiled a little and was about to ask him another question when his hand came up to cup her face. Suddenly the two of them were kissing his hands moving to her waist and hers going around his neck they stumbled back against a column but then Ardin pulled away breathless,
"Jorah..." His face was flushed slightly,
"Yes?" She nodded to the wall less room,
"We might want to wait until we get somewhere less...open." He chuckled,
"Good point." She moved her hands to his sides and pulled him into a tight hug as pressed his lips against the top of her head. She closed her eyes and let a few silent happy tears fall from her eyes. They were finally together, and nothing would take him away from her.

    The End(Probably)

Sorry for the long wait and the short end. I might come back eventually and add on but I wanted to give you guys something to wrap things up. This wasn't the end I wanted or had in mind but it's what I've got for now.
