After Aelora had confirmed with a Maester that she was in fact pregnant, her thoughts came true, her biggest nightmare came to life, she was going to become a mother, she knew she wasn't going to tell Aemond straight away, especially after still feeling the guilt of the kiss she shared with Cregan Stark.

Suddenly, Freya came into the Queens chambers with a stern drawn all over her face.

"You call yourself a Queen?! And yet you lead your allies on you whore!" Freya scolded.

"Call me a whore again and I will have your head thrown into Dragonstone bay." Aelora responded coldly.

Freya took deep breaths, she was furious that Aelora and Cregan shared a kiss.

"And what of your husband?! I bet you forgot to mention it to him didn't you."

"I'm pregnant."

Freya's heart sank, she too hated the thought of childbirth, she frowned at Aelora, demanding an explanation of who is the father.

"Don't tell me you've bedded one another as well?!" Freya exclaimed.

"Keep your fucking voice down before I take your tongue out myself! It's Aemonds child, and that kiss me and Cregan shared is none of your business, you have done nothing but disrespect me and my house, your trust is not there, your loyalty is not there. You of all people do not tell me what I can, and cannot do, I don't want you on my island dead or alive, go back to Winterfell, and stay there, Aemond will still take charge of your home, and you will wait until this war is done. Is that understood?" Aelora bluntly spoke.

Freya didn't make another sentence, she didn't know what she could say; she knew she had been unfair to Aelora and her family, she knew her attitude wouldn't be able to keep her here forever.

"You're right, it's not my business, I won't speak a word of it to anyone my Queen, I just hope you know what you're doing, and a word of advice, Starks are your most loyal ally, i would be careful who you banish, as long as my brother stays here, I am staying. I want to fight this war for you, I want a woman to succeed, I'm sorry I didn't say it sooner."

Aelora's expression didn't change, she nodded for Lady Freya to leave her chamber. Aelora instead made her way down to her council meeting, she opened the doors to a shock, her father, Prince Daemon was stood there behind the table along side Aelora's other allies, she slowly walked in looking at her fathers eyes, questioning where he was for her wedding, all these thoughts made Aelora furious, she wanted to cancel the meeting but instead she had to keep it together.

She walked past Aemond not giving him any attention at all, she couldn't even look at Aemonds eye.

"I'd hope you are all well. I'm sorry for the inconvenience my lords, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to cancel this meeting." Aelora frantically spoke.

"My love? What's wrong?" Aemond questioned.

Aelora's head began spinning, everyone went fizzy for her, everyone's voices began to echo in her head.

"All of you get out!" She bellowed.

The room went silent, no one dared speak a word to the Queen, a few members went to the other council room, Aemond and Daemon both followed the other men into the other council room. All except Freya left the room, she held a raven letter in her hands, she glared at Aelora with tears streaming down her face in horror, Aelora looked up from the dim lit table at Freya, she saw her horrified face and immediately walked up to Freya desperate to know what matter had just occurred.
