VIII- A Woman's Strength
I pulled myself out of the bed and looked outside from a window. The sun was just rising and I rubbed sleep from my eyes. I held my robe on and picked out a blue dress that had brown short sleeves. I put on the dress and smiled lightly but soon dropped it as I went to my mirror. Sitting down I took a brush and carefully did my hair. I decided to put my hair in a single ponytail and I did that adding a small blue flower.
I admired myself in the mirror. I wondered if Lady Margery needed me. I strode to the door lightly and opened the door slightly peering outside before fully opening and beginning to walk to Lady Margery's chambers.
"Lady Jaiden?" I turned to see King Joffery looking at me like a beast stares at prey.
"Your Grace. "I curtsied to Joffery and he smiled.
"Your much more beautiful than your bitch sister Sansa. "Joffery began to walk to me.
I stayed put and kept a strong poster even though I wanted to break him for calling my sister such a name. "Thank you, Your Grace. "I put on a fake smile. "You look wonderful as well. "
"A girl knows her manners. "Joffery had a evil glint in his eyes. "Perfect for bearing a King's babe. "Joffery began to circle me and I felt very afraid.
I tried to hide my fear. "Excuse me? Your Grace?" I asked trying not to tremble.
"Don't pay dumb you know exactly what I'm talking about!" Joffery snapped and I jumped back.
"Yes, Your Grace. "I felt the quiver in my voice that made Joffery smile.
"Great." Joffery walked off not looking behind to me and I stared in fear.
I stood for a moment frozen from this event. I tried to brush it off but the thought crept up on me as I began to walk to Margery's chambers again.
Still dazed from the event I passed Queen Cerise's chambers hearing a moaning noise. I looked around and saw no one near, I pressed my ear to the door and heard Cerise's voice.
"There! Faster, Jamie!" I heard Cerise's voice and I jumped back in disgust.
I listened more and my face darkened. Soon the noise stopped and I head scuffling accompanied by Jamie's voice.
"I have to go now. "Jamie spoke and I got behind the door pressing my back against the wall.
The door creaked open and Jamie stepped out walking in the direction of my chambers with a worried look. I felt sheer anger at Jamie's actions after he had promised me never trust a Lannister. I clutched my fists and followed behind Jamie quietly as he stopped at my chamber door.
Jamie knocked quietly and burst inside of my chambers. I followed in quietly staying hidden behind my dresser.
"Jaiden?" Jamie whispered and looked sound the room. Jamie walked over to my bed and I walked up behind him.
I waited until Jamie turn back around looking into my angry face. "Seven hells!" Jamie jumped back afraid.
I pushed Jamie down to the bed and growled. "You promised me. "
"I- wait how do you know?" Jamie looked puzzled then afraid at my growing furious face.
"Your sisters yells are so loud you can't miss them. "I spat and mocked Cerise. "Faster, Jamie!" I slapped Jamie's face and walked away to my desk. "You promised me and I warned you Jamie!"
"Look Jaiden I didn't mean to. "Jamie stood and walked to me putting a hand on my shoulder.
I swung around grabbing my old sword from the desk. I put the tip of the sword at Jamie's throat. "The Kingslayer gets slayed by a normal handmaiden." My nostrils flared.
"Jaiden! Look your the one I love. "Jamie pleaded holding his hands up.
"No! You love Cerise! You pushed Bram out a window! You killed my father! You took WinterFell! You killed my direwolf! You killed my mother!" I felt tears stream down my face. "Now I kill you. "I walked closer to Jamie my sword tip still threatening his throat. "I should've never trusted you, you fucking Lannister!"
Jamie was back up to a wall now with no way to escape me without losing something from his body.
"My family! Destroyed! Torn to the ground! And you did it all!" I pressed the tip of the sword to his neck without cutting.
"Jaiden I didn't-" Jamie tried to appeal to me but I didn't give in.
"Everything I ever cared about! Brought to the fucking ground!" I removed the sword from Jamie's neck.
Jamie leaped for me with relief and hugged me. I wasn't forgiving him, I bit Jamie's neck and slices a cut in his leg with my sword.
"Ahh!" Jamie fell to the ground and put his hands in his new wound as blood quickly trickled from it.
I looked at my bloodied sword and looked at Jamie. "I lost everything because of you..."
"No you lost everything to them! My sister and Joffery!" Jamie protested.
I knelt down with the sword in my hand. "Your blood." I said and took his arm.
"Jaiden!" Jamie tried to pull his arm back but I gripped it hard.
"Everything you stole from me. "I rested my sword on Jamie's wrist threatening to slit his veins open.
"Jaiden stop I'm not like them!" Jamie pleaded and I looking in his eyes.
"Prove it." I said and Jamie looked down to his cut without a word. "Actions are more than words. "I dropped the sword next to Jamie. "I'm leaving, and I'm not coming back. "
"Leaving?" Jamie questioned with pained expressions.
"I'm going to Essos, Sansa and I are leaving. Fuck. You." I kicked Jamie and sat on my bed putting my face in my hands bursting into tears. "You did this..."
