  ~ Deadly nightshade: A storm roared outside our window. The sounds of the strong wind woke me up. I frantically ran my hand over the side of the bed where Aemond was sleeping but I couldn't touch him, because he wasn't lying next to me. I raised the upper part of my body and in the pitch darkness tried to understand what was happening. The wind was beating through our window as if it wanted to come in and freeze us. I saw Aemond standing by the window looking through it.

- Aemond?

- It's just a storm, sleep Aemma.

The upper part of my body was now exposed and I was instantly shivering from the cold. My body started to shake and I could see my frozen breath as I breathed. I revealed myself and headed towards Aemond. I approached him from behind and hugged him. I want to feel his warm body. He twitched a little as if I had woken him up from a reverie. I slid my hands under his shirt and felt his warm body. I moved my head to the side to see what was happening outside.

- I've never seen anything like this.

- Me neither, we have never had a storm like this on Dragonstone and it's colder there.

A short silence, because we both looked at the storm.

- Your hands are too cold, lie down I'll light the fire our walls are cold.

I obeyed him because I froze, I was barefoot on the cold stone. The fire lit up our room and Aemond snuggled up next to me. The sound of the crackling fire quickly lulled me to sleep.

Morning:
- Ella, I left something for Aemma to wear wake her up in a quarter of an hour.

- All right your Grace, do you...

Aemond ordered Ella and stormed out of the room leaving Ella with an unfinished question for him. Ella got used to him treating her like that, he was somewhat nice to her compared to how he treated others.
I woke up with a slight shaking of my body.

- Your Grace, it's time to wake up.
Ella spoke quietly.

- Ohh Ella, how sweetly I fell asleep.

- I'm glad, I believe you'll be happy when you look out the window.

- What's outside the window?

- Look for yourself.

I got up quickly and had something to see. Kings Landing was turning white. The yard was covered in snow, every roof was white now. Snowflakes fell and made magic. My face lit up. I see snow for the first time in my life. The size of the flakes were almost the size of a walnut.

- Ella, this is the most beautiful sight I've ever seen.

- Believe me, it's only wonderful if you watch it from a warm room. Outside every part of the body is freezing.

- Then we have to dress well and go for a walk. Immediately!

- The king left this for you.

I forgot he told me I had to train today. I looked at what Ella was holding in her hands. It was black leather pants with the inside lined with a warm material. The upper part consisted of several parts. A black turtleneck and an armor over it that beautifully highlighted my body. There were details on the shoulders that reminded me of my dragons and their scales. It was a beautiful armor to train in. I am amazed at how good his taste is and how well he knows what I like.

- Finally done.

Ella let out a deep breath, as she had taken great pains to help me put the whole armor together and put it on my body.
