The Lion Knight and Dragon Princess

22 - More Than One Plan

- some smut in this part 😏

A couple of soldiers had returned us to our now shared chambers along with some poured warm water for the bath. Strolling around the room I eyed the tray of food that had been set out before they left us alone without a word. Now that we were alone I bent down on one knee reaching inside one boot of my boots I was wearing, taking out a folded piece of paper that the guards thankfully didn't find when they took my dagger from me. "What do you know about Sothoryos?" Unrolling the paper the map sprawled out on the stone table near the window.

Jaime pushed himself up from sitting on the bed coming behind me peeking over my shoulder seeing what I was looking at. "From what I remember it has been teased that it lies southeast of Westeros and is across the Summer Sea."

"So we'll need men who know how to sail. I wonder if we could raid the Greyjoy's fleet." I muttered to myself in thought.

"Why are you looking at the maps for an area that no one knows anything about?"

Turning around to face him he takes a step backwards watching my messy gown sway with my movements. "My sister has her army so we should have our own."

"We have the Lannister army."

Shaking my head in disagreement. "That won't be enough. One dragon isn't even enough against her three."

"Vaella, what are you talking about?" My husband asked.

Lowering my gaze I kept my eyes on my muddy boots not having the strength to look him in the eye when I uttered such treasonous words out into the room. "An escape plan."

"Vaella-" He trailed off seeing angry tears forming in my eyes and my hands clutching into fists at my sides, reminding him almost of Cersei so he did his best to push those past memories back deep down inside his mind.

"She has many opportunities to kill you or me. To kill our children and I refuse to let it come down to that."

Jaime ran a hand down his face, sighing heavily once he realized what I was getting at. "Don't get me wrong I don't entirely trust her but this isn't the time or place to be talking about it."

"So you don't agree with me. That we should have a backup plan in mind." I hung my mouth open in shock.

He stepped closer to me, meeting my purple gaze. "I do agree with you that she's dangerous. But what you're suggesting could cost us both our lives."

"You told me once something your father used to say. What does a lion do?"

Jaime dropped his gaze to the ground. "The Lion does not concern himself with the opinions of the sheep."

"You are a Lion. I am a Dragon. We are two great houses combined together in love. And our family is the only thing that matters. You, Luciya, Rhaegar, Amethyst and our new babe are the only ones I'd commit such an act of treason for!" I raised my voice before Jaime suddenly clasped a hand over my mouth making me gasp at his action.

His green eyes trained on mine filled with love. "Why am I just finding out about this now?"

"Probably because I didn't find out about it myself until a few weeks after you had left." I apologized with a weak smile.

Jaime cupped my face in his hands kissing me for the first time since we had been reunited right in front of my younger sister. "I love you, Vaella."

"I love you too - we shouldn't let the water go cold." Running my fingers up his tunic shirt undoing the buttons and tossing it onto the stone floor. Jaime spun me around pressing my back against his front burying his nose in my neck.

I couldn't help but giggle in anticipation feeling his left hand untying the laces of my red gown. The first time he had attempted this I had to aid him doing such a task. Once I felt the fabric pile onto the floor I stepped over the fabric where I bent down removing his trousers and we got inside the warm water just enjoying the comfortable silence that had filled the room just holding onto one another.

He tugged my flesh against his chest making me drop the rag onto the tile floor. Resting my hands on his bare chest our eyes met when he rested his forehead against mine. "I know I must have looked like an idiot during the trial. But I wouldn't let her kill my love..and anyone who tries shall have to go through me." He smashed his lips onto mine pushing me against the tub wall.

"I thought I'd lost you when your body went into the water." I rasped out, moving my hands over every part of him I physically could.

We stumbled out of the bathtub where he only broke the kiss once laying my back on the bed. "What do you want, dragon princess?"

"You, my golden knight." I squealed because the second the word left my mouth he flipped our position pushing me down on my back. He had his hands on either side of me smirking, lightly kissing me deeply.

I began to move against him and leaned up pressing my lips down upon his. He embraced me back instantly when my fingers dug into his back, both of us slick with sweat as he moved against one another, our pants and moans filling the room.

He leaned up on his knees and began to thrust his little wife at a deeper pace hitting a certain spot inside of her. "J-Jaime! " I moaned out before he connected our lips again.

The bed was moving against our actions where he kept hitting the specific spot that we both moaned afterwards to. He broke the kiss where I held his face in my hands tracing his cheek with him thrusting into me slowly. "Vae!" He moaned when I pulled his head downward burying my face in his neck nuzzling my nose and kissing into his skin.

We didn't bother untangling our limbs from one another just laying in the bed furs. Jaime's fingers danced across my bare shoulder where I rolled over to face him, allowing me the ability to twirl his blonde curls in between my fingers. "What are you thinking now, princess?"

"I want to go back to simpler times. Where it was just us and the kids back at the Rock. Where we didn't have to worry about having become traitors and running for our lives for another time. I - I thought I was done with hiding."

Jaime rolled me onto my back hovering above me putting his weight on his real hand and the fake golden one. "You never have to feel like a prisoner ever again."

"Except I still am a prisoner. This is not our home, the Rock is." I admitted weakly.

He wrapped his arms around my waist rolling himself onto his back leaving me to be sitting above him. "The Rock is simply that a ridiculous rock. What did I tell you the last time you felt like this?"

"Home is with the people you love." I grinned down at him, kissing him gently and for that moment we let our minds go back to what I suppose you can call our honeymoon faze.
