✅️ The Last Velaryon - Robb Stark

45 - Claiming House Tully part 2

"Robb, it's - you're really here." Pushing his hand off of my mouth I slapped my hands down against his firm chest as heavy tears of happiness filled in my eyes.

The young Stark boy or should I now say Stark man raised his hands up to cradle my face like it would shatter if he touched it too quickly or too rough. "My sweet Queen. I knew I'd see you again."

"I love you so much." Moving my hands up and around his neck. I threaded my fingers into his messy curls needing to be able to ground myself by holding onto him to keep telling myself repeatedly that he was real.

Robb lowered his forehead down to mine, where I felt tears slipping down his face. "I love you, Hael." He went to lean down and kiss me for the first time until we could hear voices of Frey soldiers searching the castle for people hiding.

"We need to go before they find us. I have to find Violet, she's watching our daughter." I drew my head back informing him.

He questioned me. "Who's Violet?"

"I'll explain later."

He nodded intertwining his hand with mine hearing the guards getting closer so he led me in the opposite direction of which I had come. Robb led me by our intertwined hands taking me down a secret passageway where I saw an elderly man who my husband introduced me to. "Haelesa, this is Brynden Tully. Otherwise known as the Blackfish."

"It's an honor to meet you, Ser." I curtsy to the older Lord with a bow of my head.

He nodded, shifting his gaze between Robb and I. "Robb here has told me about you. Your house shall be in good hands now that you are reunited. Especially now that they have fallen right into our trap."

"Trap. What trap is he talking about , Robb?"

My love gently took my hands in his telling me to look up into his eyes when he explained. "Hael, Tyrion and I convinced Brynden to willingly give up the castle and make it look like Tully surrounded. Until our army came out of hiding in different areas of the castle and ambushed Frey for taking you and our daughter."

"Robb, no. I - I made an arrangement with Jaime. He wanted to take the castle by force but I told him he wouldn't have to because you-"

He cut me off sharply. "The Kingslayer is here!"

"Someone is coming." Brynden informed us, causing Robb to shove me behind him as he drew out his sword before we saw someone with short blonde hair dressed in armor yet with womanly features approaching us.

Scowling at the woman with curiosity. "Who are you?"

"My name is Brienne of Tarth. The kingslayer sent me to find the Blackfish. But I am here to bring him North to help Sansa reclaim Winterfell back from the Bolton's."

Robb and I exclaimed together in shock. "The Bolton's have Winterfell!"

Brynden shook his head no, addressing what the female knight had said minutes before. "I've run before from the Red Wedding. I'm not running again. This is my family home."

"Your family is in the North. Come with us. Don't die for pride when you can fight for your blood." The woman soldier explained looking at me before she nodded. "Who are you two?"
