Tywin had found sleep avaid him that night. He didn't sleep a wink as he was up and at his desk the whole time. He sat there planning something, but what that something was even he didn't know just yet.
But he knew that he couldn't let someone like Tyanna escape through his fingers.
He seen the potential that she held. She was smart and witty he had learned from their conversation last night. Not to mention she had the Lannister appearance in every sense of the name.
So he had sat up and pondered a plan.
And that morning at breakfast, he initiated that plan.
Tyanna had awoken and taken her seat off to the side of the Lord as his guest. He noticed her seating placement. She had taken to his right hand instead of the place across from him.
Smart, because she was by no means his equal.
Any other fool would have chosen the head seat, but not her, she knew her place.
"Did you sleep well?"
Tywin questioned motioning his head to where he could look at her. Her green gaze met his with a small nod.
"Yes, thank you for allowing me to stay the night."
Her words brought a proud smirk to his lips.
"But it wasn't necessary."
And just like that his smirk fell. Instead he arched a brow and snorted.
"Wasn't necessary? You know it's rather rude to refuse a Lord on their offer."
"Which is why I accepted, my Lord, and I thank you for allowing me to stay. But I was more than ready to sleep at one of the inns here in the city."
Tywin gave her a slight glare. He hadn't expected the woman who had shown him such respect last night do a circle and now speak to him the way she spoke to him now.
"Perhaps I should have allowed you to stay at the inn. Maybe a drunken brute would have taught you a bit about respect."
Tyanna couldn't help let her lips twitch to Tywin's comment.
"Yes, I'm well aware of your methods of teaching discipline. But I'm also aware that you, my lord, have never done anything out of the good of your heart for anyone. Not even your family."
Tywin stilled for a moment. She had managed to catch onto him. The bastard woman that sat before him was smart enough to know that in return for her night spent here, he would want something in return.
