Wolf Queen

chapter twenty six

A letter lay on my desk. My curiosity got the best of me and I walk toward it. A Baratheon seal. It had to be Tommen. But how did he know I was here?

I break the seal and read the words that were written.

Dearest Lyanna,

I hope you are well. Dannys and I are doing good, though we both miss you something terrible. I do hope you are coming home soon.

I am writing this to inform you that I received a letter from your sister Sansa. She told me you were in Castle Black.

We need you here, Lyanna. I need my queen back.

Tommen Baratheon

I hold the rolled up letter in my hand. I had to go home. Before I left, I stopped by everyone to say goodbye. I stopped by Bran's chambers last.

Ash followed me everywhere still. I knocked on the door. "Come in."

I entered and Ash follows. Bran looks at Ash.

"Is that Ash?" He asks and I nod as I sit down in a chair beside him.

Ash looks at Bran. He recognized him as he walks over and sits beside Bran.

"How are you?" I ask him.

He moves his hand away from Ash. "I've been better. I'm glad to be back in Westeros." He laughs.

I smile. "I wouldn't blame you."

"Jon told me you were leaving." He says.

I nod, as to say it is true. I wanted to see my baby and Tommen again.

"Why?" He asks.

"I don't think I ever told you."

"Told me what?"

I smile slightly. "I had a baby."

Bran looks at me like he can't believe a thing I said. I look down. "A baby boy named Dannys."

"He's with Tommen, yes?"

I nod. "Yes, and a boy cannot grow without his mother."

He nods understandingly. I stand up and hug him, kissing his cheek too. He looks up at me once I have pulled away from him.

"Remember, if you don't get to go back home to Winterfell, you always have a home with me in King's Landing." I smile.

"Thank you, Lyanna." He returns the smile

"Send me a raven soon telling me how things are. I'd love to hear everything." I say as I leave.

I walk out to the courtyard. Ash was sitting beside my horse patiently. Sansa and Jon were standing behind my horse.

"Are you going to be okay?" Sansa asks and I nod.

"Yes, absolutely. If I went beyond the wall by myself I think I can handle the road to King's Landing." I chuckle.

"I'm having two of my men go with you anyway." Jon says without looking at me.

He was disappointed. I hated to disappoint him. He needed to realize that I have a child and a husband waiting for my return. I have a kingdom to help rule.

Sansa hugs me. "Be safe."

"Of course." I tell her and pull away.

She walks away and it's just Jon and I. He finally looks up at me.

"Please, don't me angry with me."

"I'm not. I'm just going to miss having you around." He says.
