Wolf's Mark

Chapter 20

Laynna talks to Tommen and Jaime. Jaime talks to Varys and shows that he is not as easy going as people think. I hope you guys like it. 🥰

Lyanna finished writing her letter and sealed it. She could not wait for her sister to receive the news that she was with child. Lyarra had sent her a raven on their name day telling Lyanna she was with child. From what the maester had said she and Lyarra's child would be born only a moon apart. Lyanna could not wait, she hoped her children and her sister's children would be great friends. Lyarra's children will be the princes and princesses of Dorne, they would be important. Lyanna was now tied to five of the seven kingdoms, and she was aware of how nervous people were about the fact.
She was bored of being in her chambers all day. The maester had come to see her twice already. The first time had been to examine her and the second time was only a few hours later, she knew Jaime had sent him. She had not attended the small council meeting today, staying in her chambers. It was only midday and she was already going out of her mind, there was only so much she could do. She was happy when someone knocked on the door, calling for them to enter eagerly.
"Well, hello." She smiled when Tommen walked in, followed by Shireen. "I have missed you both."
"I have missed you also." Tommen kissed her cheek, before sitting beside her. "I wanted to see you last night, but grandsire said you were resting. Are you well? Were you hurt really badly?"
"No, I am well." She kissed the top of his head, attempting to calm him. "It was just a small bump and a few scratches. The master is being overly cautious."
"Congratulations." Shireen's smile was contagious. "King Tywin told the whole court that you are with child. We are all very excited, I cannot wait to meet him or her."
"Thank you, Shireen." The Baratheon girl was so sweet, Lyanna enjoyed spending time with her. "We are all very excited."
Shireen spoke excitedly and Lyanna could not help but frown when she noticed the way Tommen's face had fallen. The small boy looked sad, Lyanna did not want to ask him about it in front of Shireen, Tommen was not someone who enjoyed speaking about his feelings in front of other people. Shireen did not stay too long, leaving to have the midday meal with her father.
"Tommen?" The small boy looked at her. "What is the matter?"
"It is nothing."
"It is not nothing." She turned her chair towards him. "You can always talk to me, remember?"
"Can I still visit when you have your child?" Lyanna frowned, but Tommen just continued talking. "Grandsire told us about the babe during supper last night. Mother told me that you would not want me around any longer because you will now have a child of your own. She said you would send me away so I not be on the way."
"I would never do that, Tommen." Lyanna wanted to find Cersei and beat her within an inch of her life. Why would she say something like that to her own son? "I love you, as much as if you were my own son. I would never send you away, I want you to be the best cousin to this babe."
She wanted to say brother, but it was not her secret to tell. Tommen's eyes filled with tears as he wrapped his arms around her, his shoulders shaking. She hated Cersei, hated how cruel the woman could be to her own child. He calmed down after a few minutes, pulled away from her, and gave her a smile. Lyanna dried his tears, kissing his forehead.
"I will be the best cousin." Tommen's smile was back. "I will train harder and I will protect the babe and you."
"Thank, little prince."
She wanted to cry but was saved when Jaime walked into the room, followed by a few maids and two guards. He gave her and Tommen a large smile, gesturing for the maids and guards to place the items on the table. He did not say anything, just sat beside her and kissed her lips, watching carefully as the maids served the food and placed the plates in front of them. Once the room had been cleared, Jaime turned to her, his smile still in place.
"I went to the market and bought all fresh ingredients, then I went to the kitchens and had the cook make the food in front of me. I had them pack the food and followed them as they brought it here." Lyanna looked at Tommen, who was hiding his smile behind his hand before looking back at her insane husband who did not notice how she was looking at him. "I know the maester wants you to take a tincture for the first few weeks, but you do not like the taste. So I had the cook make you honey cakes, it will mask the taste of the medicine."
"You went to the market?" Jaime nodded. "And bought fresh ingredients?" He nodded once more. "Then you stood by the cook as he prepared it?" He just kept nodding, apparently, he did not realize where she was going with this. "And that does not seem at all insane to you?"
"No," Her husband pouted, before looking at Tommen. "Should I not have done it Tommen?"
"He is just taking care of you, Aunt Lyanna." The small boy smiled mischievously at her. "But he is a little insane."
Jaime gasped, looking offended, before reaching across from her and messing Tommen's hair, making the little boy giggle. She was glad to see how much better their relationship was. Jaime spent a lot of time with Tommen and was teaching him how to be a knight. She would make sure Tommen always felt like a part of their family.
