Lucenys hated her monthly bleeding.

The first time she bled she cried knowing that she could be married and bedridden immediately, but her mother avoided that day for a few years. Another thing she hated was feeling disgusting, bloated and tired.

Anyway, she hated having to bleed four days a month.

But, on her second day in "The Tempest" having her bleed felt like a victory for her. If she was bleeding it means that the seed Aemond spilled into her womb when he raped her failed to impregnate her.

She wouldn't have a baby.

"Rest, princess," Yunet said, handing over a cup of tea. Lucenys was lying on a simple bunk inside the cabin. "Thank the gods you won't have a baby. Babies are gifts from the gods, as long as they are desired."

"Lose".

Lucenys looked at the two small trunks on the spot. Apparently her mother was cunning and saved her from returning to Aemond's clutches.

"When we arrive"; Lucenys said. "We will send a raven to Storm's End asking for Ser Aster Noon's family. He was key in my escape from Aemond, I know my uncle, he wouldn't let him live."

Lucenys drank the cup.

"I want to know if he had a family," she sighed. "I will help Ser Noon's family in any way I can, compensation for saving me."

"Oh princess, you are a pure soul." Septa Yunet kissed her forehead.

Cregan looked at the scroll with the crab seal. The Celtigar family.

"Princess Lucenys is already on the ship on the way to White Harbor. We managed to rescue her before her dragon sank into the sea, she was being chased by Prince Aemond.

We don't know the full context, but something has happened between the princes that Queen Rhaenyra cries out for revenge for Princess Lucenys.

We estimate that we will be arriving at our destination in two more days.

Att.

Lord Hyam Celtigar

Heir of Paw Island"

"Like my vision," Sara said, peeling a chestnut. "A dragon sinking into the sea..."

"Your green dream did not fail," Cregan commented.

"They never fail, brother." Sara looked at him. "Because if you had believed that this was nothing more than madness, you would have died a long time ago and our uncle would rule the North."

Cregan pursed his lips remembering his eighteenth birthday party where Sara, in the middle of the celebration, took the glass away from him, screaming that the drink was poisoned. Everyone in the room thought she was crazy, until the waiter who raised the glass, probably some wine, fell to the floor vomiting bloody bile.

Cregan had no problem killing his uncle and sending his cousins to the Wall so they could wear black for the rest of their lives.

The Reed blood that runs in Sara's blood, the blood of the green seers, was special, and after his almost death Cregan blindly trusted his sister.

The night he came into his room shouting that he saw a dragon sinking into the sea, the sigil of the Velaryons.

Lucenys.

He did not hesitate to send a letter to Dragonstone with the fastest raven of him and the response came quickly.

Cregan looked at the stack of letters they had been exchanging these four years. Like Lucenys' name was written in elegant curved calligraphy or the lavender scent of scrolls.

He might sound stupid, but he had fallen in love with a pair of pretty eyes that he remembered through the formal and curious letters that a southern princess wrote him, that he thought all these years she was destined to marry a prince. .

But now that prince had done something that forced Lucenys to flee.

"I will send a letter to the Cerwyn, Karstark, and Mormont," Cregan said. "Princess Lucenys will need female companionship. Let the daughter of Lord Cerwyn, the sister of Karstark, and the widow Mormont come to Winterfell."

"I'll tell Maud to prepare rooms for visitors," Sara spoke. "Are you happy bro? Your southern card girlfriend is coming to Winterfell."

"Sara, Princess Lucenys is not my girlfriend."

"Pearls covered in frost," Sara smiled as she stood up and giggled as she walked towards the door. "A brown-haired baby with amethyst eyes."

And with that, Sara left.

After days at sea, Lucenys looked at her destination of arrival.

The beautiful Arrax got used to sleeping in the bow of the ship that flew little, he must have been injured and somewhat traumatized after both of them almost died at sea.

"We'll be there soon princess." Ser Darien extending a fox fur cloak to him. "It's cold and we don't want you to get sick."

"Thank you Ser Nostorn."

Lucenys covered herself, Yunet was in the cabin, the trip took its toll on her and the seasickness has been going on for days. Lucenys looked at the sky and saw a green dragon flying over the place.

Vermax

Minutes later they arrived at the port where there were soldiers with the stealth of the Manderly waiting, Lord Manderly's son, Medrick and Jace.

Lucenys took a couple of steps forward with her head held high before launching herself into the arms of his brother. She hid her face in her brother's chest, sobbing with joy.

He ran his hands through her hair giving her words of support, she looked up and kissed him on the forehead.

"Thank the gods you have arrived safely in the North," he said, hugging her.

"He almost caught me, in Storm's End."

"Lucenys?"

"Aemond was there," she looked at him, her eyes blurred with tears, "arranging a betrothal for Daeron with one of the Baratheon girls. He called me his wife and almost took me to King's Landing."

"You're safe now," Jace said, looking at her. "I would die to see you safe."

Lucenys did not say anything, while she greeted Lord Medrick they headed towards New Fortress, the frost fell on Lucenys' hair forming a light white headband.

"Princess Lucenys is protected in Dragonstone," said Tyland Lannister. "Rhaenyra most likely has a guard near her after what happened at Storm's End."

Aemond was sitting in the small council drinking a glass of wine, he had Lucenys for moments before she escaped because of that damned Baratheon soldier.

"They have rejected King Aegon's proposal," added Lord Hand.

Lucenys walked for a moment in step with her, so ready to climb onto Vhagar and leave with him, but she was taken from him once again.

Aemond looked at his mother, she had given him cold treatment since Aegon's coronation.

Now all we had to do was wait, maybe Aemond managed to get Lucenys pregnant that night he claimed her. Lucenys was so devoted to the Seven and the shadow of her Strong's blood floating like a black cloud above her forced her to come to the capital when she realized she was pregnant.

Aemond would welcome her with open arms and covered in green before the sight of the Great Sept.

He just had to be patient.
