279 AC, King's Landing
"You have to tell him" Elia said firmly as Janna helped lacing Alyssa into her riding dress. Personally she would have preferred breeches and a tunic, but it wasn't proper for a princess to wear in public and Alyssa was too tired to argue.
"No I don't" Alyssa said stubbornly, "I'm not even sure I'm with child yet. It might be something I ate." Just saying it felt surreal. She had shared her realisation with her ladies, or rather had been forced to when they walked in on her emptying her stomach and thought she was dying.
"You should see a Maester" Catelyn chimed in, while starting to braid her hair out of her face, "It might not be safe for you to travel right now."
"I will see the Maester at Dragonstone" Alyssa said, "From what I have heard from Rhaella I'd rather wait than having Pycelle examining me. Not to mention that it may just be a mistake-"
"Alyssa you are with child" Ashara put her hands on Alyssa's shoulders, "Your moonblood is late, you can't keep your food down and your stomach is starting to swell."
"No it's not" Alyssa said in denial, she wouldn't accept it until she got confirmation from a Maester or the child popped out of her.
"It's not visible when you are dressed, but one can see a small swell on your normally completely flat stomach" Ashara told her, seriously.
"Which is why she should inform Prince Rhaegar" Catelyn said again, tugging a little at her hair when Alyssa moved her head.
"No, he didn't tell me about Dragonstone until the last second so I won't tell him about this until we reach Dragonstone and I'm starting to show for real" Alyssa said with a victorious smile, like she was winning some competition against her husband. "Not to mention that I managed to convince him to let me to ride to the ship today and I won't allow him to change his mind."
"But-"
"No buts" Alyssa interrupted while standing up from her chair, dressed in a dark green riding dress and her hair was braided out of her face in a more elaborate way than she was used to. "You should all get ready now. I'm going to say goodbye to Rhaella and Viserys."
Before any of her ladies could protest she made her way out of the door, feeling like she had won the argument. Queen Rhaella's chambers wasn't too far away from her own so it was a short walk and when she reached the door Lewyn opened it, allowing her to step inside.
