3.11 War Map

"What do you mean?" Robb smiled as well.

"Have I ever told you that my uncle Stannis used to love sneaking me into his meetings? Guess what kind of meetings." she looked down at the map.

"War meetings." Robb answered. She nodded and focused on the map. "You see... My army is concentrated around Harrenhal and Riverrun, Lannister and Tyrell armies overrunning the Stormlands. There you see Lannister and Tyrell armies concentrated in Kings Landing and Greyjoy forces occupying the western coasts of the North." he told her and she nodded.

"Maybe you could try to take the fight with the Lannisters if they won't come to you." she looked at him. "Though that's a bad idea."

"Taking the city would be difficult to begin with, also, now Tywin and the bulk of the main Lannister army, as well as a large Tyrell army are defending the city. Attacking the capital head-on would be a suicide and Tywin would crush us within a day." Robb shook his head.

"I guess I wasn't listening what Stannis used to speak at the meetings." she commented.

Robb smiled and kissed her head. "No, go on." he encouraged and she looked at him with amazement.

"Well." she sighed looking back at the map. "You can lead your army back to the North to repulse Grejoys from your homeland and rebuild your power base." she said.

"As soon as all of my tired soldiers will be back home, they won't want to leave again... Because 'winter is coming' and the coming one is expected to be very long." he sighed. She bumped his side playfully and he chuckled lowly. "The Northerners have been away from their farms fighting in the war. They haven't even begun to collect harvests to set aside as winter stockpiles." he then added. "And if I want to return to the North, it will be difficult to rally my men to return south to defend the Riverlords, who declared for me."

There was a brief silence, until Robb spoke again. "If Kings Landing is too strong to attack and I can't return home, my only option is to strike, where my enemy is the weakest. Most of Tywin's men are in Kings Landing. I can attack Casterly Rock. This will make the Lannisters lose face, just as I lost Winterfell."

"I apologize for bringing this up, but you lost most of Karstark men. You don't have enough men to attack Casterly Rock." Arabella said quietly.

"I need to win back the allegiance of House Frey. Thousands of men left when I married you instead of a Frey girl." he spoke. She looked down. "I don't doubt this decision. I did what I wanted to do. I need to repair my alliance with Walder Frey."

"I heard his daughters aren't very pretty." she teased turning her body to his.

"No, they aren't, unfortunately." he smirked shaking his head at his gorgeously beautiful wife.

"Luckily you have me." she said bringing her face to his.

"Yes, indeed." he kissed her. She closed her eyes in pleasure and he spun her back to his front before kissing her neck.

He placed his hands around her waist and she placed her hands on his. "Someone might see us." she whispered spinning around again. Robb pushed her to the table softly.

"Then they can enjoy the view." he pushed his lips to hers. She sat down on the table, making all of the little statues to fall down. Robb started lifting her dress up. She unbuttoned his jacket and kissed him again.

Soon they were both naked, kissing on the table. She moaned as he went into her and pressed her nails into his back. Blood started pouring from his back, but he didn't care. She kissed him as they both moved in sync.

<...>

"Your back is bruised." she touched it as he was dressing up.

"I don't care, love." he said with a smirk while buttoning his jacket.

"I love you." she said from behind. He turned to her and they kissed.

"I love you, my queen." he looked down at her exposed body and smirked. "You better dress up or I'll attack you again."

She smiled punching his chest slightly and slipped into her dress. After a few moments, Edmure knocked on a door.

"Write Walder Frey, that I want to negotiate with him." Robb said sitting down.

"Yes, your grace." Edmure trailed off noticing the statues lying on the ground and left.

Arabella laughed and Robb shook his head with a smirk.
