Chapter six 𓃦 Red river
Despite the lack of true marriage between the two, Baelor remained in Genna's chambers. While he could always get a separate chamber for himself, the fear of whispers echoing among the hallways of the Keep made him stay in the marital chambers.
Baelor was only able to get Genna under the covers when the night turned in early morning. The tears still fell down her cheek and ended on the cold pillows, her lower lip caught between her teeth, biting so harshly, blood spilled. And like a ghost, Baelor washed inside the room, the dark green doublet lost on the armchair by the fireplace, boots falling on the floor beside the bed. He sat on the edge, hands clasped together on his lap, back facing Genna.
His wife's hand reached forward but stopped a few centimetres from the cut skin of his back. Genna's fingers gently traced the old, screaming red scar that reached from his left shoulder down to the last rib on his right side, allowing Baelor to choke back a sob he wasn't aware he was holding. He closed his eyes, head falling forward which gave Genna the impression he despised her touch, pulling her hand away. Quickly, he turned his head to look at her – eyes red from crying, the bags under them darker and bigger than ever before – whispering, "I did not hate it."
Genna watched his face shifting, eyes wandering to her belly again. He turned fully, laying down. While his face faced her, his eyes never met hers. Her husband's hand reached forward but stopped a few centimetres from the growing belly. Baelor's fingers gently traced the nightgown – dark green, a present her mother-in-law requested from Dorne – stopping at the sudden kick underneath. Despite the situation rising around them like dark clouds capture Baelor and Moonfyre in the sky, his lips twitched in a smile. He pushed himself lower on the bed, both hands on the belly, face inches from it as he whispered, "hello there. I see you are awake."
