The Northern Mermaid

Thirteen

~Jaime Lannister's POV~

It begins to rain as I try to find Tyrion, it was clear skies when we came in and all of a sudden this storm comes in? How? Gods I hate the north, the only reason we are here is because the king needs a new hand. When I find Tyrion's horse, I hear a whore moaning so I get five more whores for Tyrion.

When I walk in, I see a red haired whore atop of him "Don't get up"

"My lord" the whore greets

"Do I" Tyrion asks "need to remind you what it means for door to be closed in a whore house?"

"You have much to teach me" I say "no doubt" closing the door "but our sister craves your attention"

"Odd cravings" he muses "our sister"

"Family trait" I pour myself some wine "odd how it's raining"

"It's raining?" Tyrion asks "it was clear skies when we came in and now it's raining? So?"

"So what?" I ask

"Have you met her?" He asks

"She's beautiful" I tell him "the rumors are true" yet when the king mentioned a lover she looked close to bursting into tears "you" looking at the whore "what do you know about Lord Stark's eldest daughter?"

"Lady Lyarra?" She asks "she's a wonderful lady, poor thing how she had her heart broken"

"Death?" Tyrion asks

"No" shaking her head "more like rejection—she's been using that anger and rage and sadness to teach us commoners how to read and write"

"Really?" I ask

She nods her head "She and Lady Stark even got into a whole disagreement. Lady Lyarra was sent to another land when she was nine and she grew up like a commoner, she had no servants or anything. She is very self sufficient and very well educated since many in that land, doesn't matter their birth of being a nobleman or commoner—they are all treated the same"

"How did Lady Stark react when she heard this?" I ask, cause I'm finding this a horrifying concept.

"Fainted" she smiles "it was best funny—while she was away, Lady Lyarra would send food and clothes to all the villages all over the north. She's very generous and pure hearted unlike Lady Sansa who she nearly killed"

"What?" Tyrion and I ask, she nearly killed her sister.

Nodding her head "Lady Sansa made a remark about how stupid it was for her to be heartbroken and Lady Lyarra told her that she can't help her feelings, so Lady Sansa made the remark about why she thinks this man rejected her and Lady Lyarra attacked causing her ribs to be fractured, her hair pulled out, her face very bruised...Lady Sansa barely made it out alive while her friend Jeyne ended up with a bruised eye and her hand scarred for life"

"My fiancée sounds lovely...the Starks are feasting us at sundown" I tell Tyrion "don't leave me alone with these people" oh yes, the king has decided that the Lannisters and Starks should be allies aka through marriage.

~Lyarra's POV~

"Who" Mimmi asks as I'm face timing the girls, my door is locked and I have my phone up where I see my friends at the beach "are you getting all dressed up for?"

"I'm going to a ball" adding black lipstick "and I am meeting my fiancé" yeah, father told me after going to the crypts with the king how I'm marrying Jaime Lannister.
