Last Man Standing / Jacaerys Velaryon / Alys Rivers / Taelon Targaryen

10. Greybeards

"Race ya!"

Flying with Jace was filled with laughter. They were quick to race to the vale of Arryn

Jace extended his arms holding danika as she slid down her little dragon. She savored his touched before they were greeted by guards and the work was to be resumed.

"Thrice have mine own kin sought to replace me. My cousin Ser Arnold is wont to say that women are too soft to rule. I have him in one of my sky cells, if you would like to ask him." Jeyne told Jace after he told her of their situation and requested her armies side with the rightful queen rhaenyra targaryen. Viserys chosen heir.  "In this world of men, we women must band together. My only request is that dragonriders are to protect the Eyrie from the greens' own dragons." Jeyne wagered.

"Easy enough. Not my dragon but someones." Danika offered. Jace nodded. After Jace agreed, Lady Jeyne and her warriors knelt before the prince. Danika looked to her man filled with pride.

"You did it, babe." She whispered kissing his cheek. "Your mum would be proud."

"One down one to go."

"Maybe we linger at winterfell." Danika suggested "cozy up next to the fire." She purred.

"Business before pleasure my heart." Jace countered kissing her neck. She blushed at his touch. He turned back to jeyne. "I have more business to attend to but you have my word you will have dragons protecting your home."

With that they set off again. Less than an hour and they kicked ass and claimed the vale.

"Olaf," danika commanded. He turned to her. Jace loved when she spoke high valyrian. She sounded so commanding and powerful.

"Thats sexy."

"What?"

He repeated her command and vrrymax turned to him.  Danika laughed leaning into him.

"Knowledge is sexy?"

"When you do it. Yeah." Jace agreed.

Danika realized she  could never live in the north. As the snow started to fall she shivered like crazy. Jace was quick to wrap his cloak around her but now he was shaking too. 

"It's freezing," His teeth chattered as he rubbed his arms. 

"Take your cloak back you will catch your death!" Danika demanded. 

"I'm trying to ch-ch- chivalrous."  Jace shivered back. 

Taelon was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Literally.  The stone wall at his back the metal gates off axis before him.

"PUSH!" 

"Who was the idiot that decided this was a good idea?" Tommen questioned. 

"We were the idiots." Taelon agreed. "Listening to bigger idiots. PUSH!" 

"I dont like this manual labor nonsense." Tommen whined. He let go and the almost fixed gate it sunk back to the ground. "You are a damn prince! Make someone else do this."

"I need to keep my hands busy so I dont go after you know who again." Taelon countered. 

"I didnt think you had it in you." Tommen chuckled leaning against the gate. 

"We need this fixed, stop lolly gagging." Taelon instructed. 

"Hey, I was thinking if we were working with your niece- the nice one that flirts with me not the weird one that plays with bugs-" Tommen felt the need to clarify. "We wouldnt be doing hard mundane work, we would be-"

"Fighting, against my family. No matter what I do i'm fighting my family." Taelon grumbled. 

"Well my brother ran off with Avalon and he's a good man to have in your pocket, just saying. Rather be on his side." Tommen mumbled.
