Chapter 7 - You wouldn't Reject the Queen Would You?

We were all seated in the dinning hall enjoying the feast as King Robert walked towards me as I was seated next to Robb and Catelyn. "Your father was a great man Morgana," The King said as he sat across from me. "Some say he would fight a battle of 2'000 alone and win without a single scratch," The King added as the Stark children listened closely to the talk or Morgana's family. "Your mother had a beauty that only the Lyanna Stark could rival, her need to protect her young made her even more powerful. Your brother Arthur would have made a fine Lord one day he was just like your father strong and caring. Your younger sister Analysa, the little book worm she was if I remember correctly, she spent so much time in a book she would never perform her magic well. And then you add the youngest Marthe so powerful that nothing would be able to stop you two, the perfect combination of mother and father, now the use of that power would all depend on you, is it for good or evil," King Robert said looking at Morgana closely.

"I am truly sorry for the loss of your family Lady Morgana they were good people who didn't deserve this," the King whispered as Cersei sneered.

"Let's stop mourning the lost and stop talking of magic if it is used the user will not suffer a noble death," Queen Cersei said from her seat next to King Robert. The whole room silence and it was in that moment that King's Landing and Winterfell alike hated Cersei. She soon noticed how quiet it was and beckoned one of her servants forward.

"I have a gift for you Morgana, this is the richest wine you will ever taste, and it is what I drank while holding my children. It made them strong and healthy," Cersei said as the servant poured the deep red wine into the silver chalice.

"Thank you Your Grace, but I do not think wine is the best to drink while with child," I said looking directly at her. The crowd around us was still silenced as they watched me tell the queen no.

"You would dare disrespect your Queen's gift to you. This is the most expensive wine and you are to tell me that you don't want it because you are with child. I was with child when I drank my children are fine so you will drink it," Queen Cersei said her voice raising as she stood pushing the cup out towards me. I to stood meeting her piercing gaze and as I reached out to grab it Magicae flew down cawing at the cup.

"Get this beast out of her before it hurts someone!" Queen Cersei yelled as Magicae flew around Cersei and I trying to hit the cup.

"Magicae leave, go play with Greywind," I told pointing towards the door. He chirped at me before flying out the room quickly.

"I apologize Your Grace Magicae just shares my same opinion about wine when with child," I smirked at the Queen who returned my smirk pushing her hand with the silver chalice even closer to me.

"Just one sip, for your Queen, it would make me very happy," Queen Cersei said as Robb started to stand beside me but I held my hand out to stop him. I took the silver chalice from her bringing it up to my nose for a quick smell. Then I pushed it back to her.

"You take a sip and then I will drink it," I said looking for a fault in her stone cold face.

"Fine," She muttered grabbing the chalice and taking a quick sip before pushing it back towards me. "Now I am your Queen and I say drink, enjoy the rich flavor of the most expensive wine." I pulled the chalice back to my lips looking into the drink before I pulled it to my lips delicately taking a small sip, tasting the liquid. I then took a bigger sip and placed it down on the table before sitting back in my seat.

"Good girl," The Queen smiled at me as the feast around us returned to normal.

As the feast continued the noise grew louder and the people grew rowdier. "Morgana, my Uncle Benjen has arrived and I would like for you to meet him," Robb whispered into my ear as he returned from the outside with his father. I nodded as Robb helped me out of my chair next to Sansa. We walked out of the dinning hall our arms link as Robb lead me over to a tall man dressed in Night's Watch uniform who just finished his talk with Lord Stark.
