"How many guards does my father have?" Arya questioned.

"Here in King's Landing? Fifty give or take." Jae remarked.

"You wouldn't let anyone kill him, would you?" Arya questioned, big eyes staring up at him. Jae reached out grabbing her shoulder. 

"No fear on that count, little Lady." Jae assured. 

"You arent his guard." 

"I'm his friend." Jae corrected. "I have more reason to want him alive." he half mused. 

"I need to talk to Jory." Arya decided as she headed out. Jae chuckled as he started getting ready again.   

"You think Arya was right?" Sansa questioned. Jae was buttoning up his shirt when Sansa woke up. 

"I hope not but she heard something worrying, thats for sure." Jae remarked. 

"Lord Stark, your presence has been requested in the small council chamber. A meeting has been called."

"I need to see the King first -- alone." Ned corrected

" The King is at the small council meeting, my Lord. He has summoned you." the steward corrected.

"Is it about my wife?" Ned sighed out.

"No, my Lord. I believe it concerns Daenerys Targaryen."

Ned passed Jae's room seeing Sansa in his bed his blankets bundled up around her, Jae getting ready, while Sansa watched him intently. If Ned was in trouble, he knew that his children were not safe, knew sansa would gladly stay staring at Jae all day if Jae let her. He kept going heading to the council room. 

'The whore is pregnant.' Robert snapped

'You were talking about murdering a child.' ned declared.

'I warned you this would happen, back in the north. I warned you but you didn't care to hear well hear it now!' Robert demanded 'I wanted them dead mother and child both. And that fool viserys as well is that clear enough for you?' Robert shouted.

'You will dishonor yourself if you do this.' ned told him.

'Honor! I've got seven kingdoms to rule one king 7 kingdoms.' he screamed 'do you think honor keeps him in line? Do you think it is on our keeping the peace? It is fear. Fear and blood.' Robert shouted. 

"Careful Robert, your Targaryen is showing." Ned warned. Robert snarled back at him.  ''Come on Robert, you do this then we are no better than the mad king.' Ned told him.

''Careful Ned careful.' Robert warned

''Do you want to assassinate a girl out of spite or because of a rumor you heard?' Ned questioned.

'It is no rumor.' Varys said 'the princess is with pregnant with child'

'Based off of what information?' Ned questioned

'So Jorah moment he is serving as an advisor to the Targaryen's.' Varys told him.

'Mormont? You bring us the whispers of a traitor half a world away and call it a fact!' Ned questioned incredulously

'Mormont was a slave trader not a traitor.' Varys reminded him.

''I know it's a small difference to an honorable man.' Petyr added and Ned stared at him.

''He broke the law betrayed his family and fled our lands we commit murder on the word of this man?' Ned shouted back.

'And if he is right and she has a son?' Robert shouted 'a Targaryen at the head of a Dothraki army what then?'
