"She's gone!"

A yell came from the hallway. Roose and Alanna we're in the middle of a meeting prior to her departure. But when the yell of Sansa's escape came did Roose stop and look at Alana. She could tell that he was trying to read her. Trying to figure out if she had anything to do with her sister's sudden disappearance. Then again he already knew the answer.

"Where is she?"

He questioned in a tone so calm it was almost eerie. This was the man that she remembered. Standing before him in the middle of the dining hall as the man who had yelled came rushing into the room.

"She's gone! Sansa Stark has vanished!"

He told Roose bowing deeply to his lord. Alanna watch just his jaw clenched tightly giving him an extremely pissed off look.

"Inform the guards. Question everyone."

Roose said his eyes never leaving Alanna. Once the man went running out of the dinning hall did Roose step forward and grab Alanna roughly by the forearm. She didn't flinch as he grabbed her and pulled her close to him.

"I won't ask again, Alanna. Where is your sister?"

Alanna swallowed deeply as she parted her lips.

"Probably halfway back to the Twins by now. She departed last night... while you were preoccupied."

She hissed the last having her arm squeezed by the man in his anger.

"You tricked me!"

He growled feeling his blood boil at the thought that a simple invitation between the woman's legs was all it took for him to be distracted long enough for Sansa to escape.

"I did not. Our encounter was honest."

Alanna said softly, watching as Roose's glare hardened.

"It was only until after I went to check on her had I found a note saying she was using our moment as a distraction."

Roose releases her arm. She grunted and lifted her hand up to rub it. It burned and ached from the strong hold he held upon her. He backed away and inhaled deeply through his nose.

Only turning when he heard someone else entering the dinning hall.

"Father is it true?"

Ramsey said entering the hall. Alanna's eyes widened a bit as she watched the young man enter. It was only when he seen Alanna did he stop and gwak at her.

"Lady Alanna?"

He questioned not having expecting to see her here. It took him a moment to piece together this new information.

"Lady Alanna was our guest last night."

Roose snapped causing Ramsey to glance to his father.

"How did Sansa escape, Ramsey? She was your responsibility."

Ramsey was taken aback. His father was truly upset over this little mishap.

"I dunno. She must have escaped -- "

"You make yourself look like a fool for letting her escape. The woman who was to be your wife running away in the middle of the night. How does that make you look?"

Roose said approaching Ramsey to the point where his eyes grew wide. His father was truly upset over this problem.

"She was our key to the North. Now your children will never sit on the Northern throne. Honestly, you couldn't even keep track of one little girl?"

Alanna stood back and watched the son and father. Roose was vivid. She could tell from the fact that he was pointing out Ramsey's faults.

That's when Ramsey looked to Alanna.

"Surely there is... another option?"

Ramsey questioned. That's when the hairs on the back of Alanna's neck rose. Roose narrowed his eyes at his son and stepped closer to where he was almost touching noses.

Then he turned and looked at the woman. Alanna looked to Roose wondering what his next move was going to be.
