Cersei

The bidding had began and watch the figure exceed massive for Margaret who sat their hopeless and assigned to her fate and looking away just hoping for the man to not hurt her in the future but now Arthur was posed with a problem, who would be his bride he looked at the remaining ones and knowing of his obligations to find a woman of standing understood it was Cersei who he must choose, they waited for her turn to come even though David protested, “You can’t be serious... she is triple your age!” she looked up weakly smiling seeing me stare at her full breasts which caused her to lightly wink over to my direction, “If that’s who you want then let’s at least try and get her cheap!”

The bidding began and it was silent in the hall apart for the small bids by the people raising it to barely a 100, people clearly feared her reputation, so waiting for it to draw to the end with bidding at 115 coins Cersei looked over to my position who spoke, “200 providing Brienne is thrown in!” the auctioneer dithered on it before nodding sold the pair to Me, “We will need some time to prepare the women but please make yourself comfortable!” I nodded as we saw Margaret be pulled away by her collar and looking over to me rushed towards me to lock her lips with mine and sliding a note into my hand walked away with her “owner” allowing me to examine the note carefully and away from his prying eyes, “What does it say?” “It says: help me, I have been bought by a bastard of an man called Ser Otto of the Northern Borders, he keeps mentioning your family and how this was an coup for him to win me from your family’s grasp. Please help me!” David studied it before shrugging spoke, “I wouldn’t care to be truthful, his wife will kill him if he brings her home, much like you she is above this dispute! Your father on the other hand is going to respond; he always falls for it and there will be blood!” I nodded before hearing the doorknob twist watched on to see Brienne now in full armour and next to her the mature woman who now wore a dress and had been cleaned up, “I thank you my Lord for sparing me the humiliation of an auction where they would have undoubtedly laughed at me. I pledge my loyalty to you and what you have planned for me!” going to kneel down but I dismissing it spoke, “Never mind that, but I do seek an bodyguard and I rather trust you over the men my father has tried to reach out to, they are nothing more than bandits or mercenaries, you have honour!” “Thank you my Lord!” “And hear this David, she will be treated as my equal, she will receive the same food, same luxury quarters and facilities that I have!” “You sure Arthur? If you start doing that; it often causes staff to over think their position!” “She will not if you don’t alienate her!” David nodded studying the woman behind her now wearing an figure hugging dress that showed off her motherly figure and large still firm breasts, “My fine Lady Cersei of Flanders!” “So you are the one who purchased me?” “His title is Lord Arthur of Northumbria and 4th in line to the throne of the Supreme North!” “How old are you boy?” “Fourteen!” “Do you even know why they wanted you to purchase someone?” “Family tradition...” “No it’s all Political; marriage, sex, children or mistress, sex, children; people only care about power and money. Looks like I will have to show you what it’s all about but don’t worry you are in safe hands!!”

“Son, you’re back!” I nodded standing next to Brienne who studying the manor her mouth dropped seeing the walls surrounding it and the size of it, “Who’s this? Please don’t tell me you chose him!” Olaf spoke and shaking my head spoke, “Brienne is my protector, she has had experience fighting, well she is actually an hardened veteran and knows how to use virtually every weapon known to Europe. Margaret was too much but since you wanted a woman of status or at least influence I brought Cersei of Flanders who knows the game and is willing to play!” Alfred walking out with his wife began to heckle us as he saw the middle aged woman, “Bloody hell Arthur; I knew she would be older but not older then both of us together!” “Please tell me this is an dream. The purpose was for you to wed and solidify links to another state!” “My dear Olaf, we both know there is others ways to increase ones political standing and influence!” Cersei spoke causing her to hand him the note from Margaret, “Your son has got you the second best thing an location on where Margaret will be; if you’d follow me I can tell you of my plan. I’ll see you later my dearest boy!” which only made Alfred laugh harder, “Well what do you want to do now?” Arthur asked looking over to Brienne who raising an eyebrow asked, “Don’t you have studying or something to do?” “Yes but it’s boring and it would bore you to... How about you teach me your skills?!” “After what Cersei was teaching you on the way here I doubt that is what you actually intend” “No... I actually meant fighting; I like to learn from you...” she nodded before passing him a sword spoke, “Come on then!”

“You are better than I expected...” Brienne stated disarming him, “I prefer duel blade but father states: “that it isn’t noble to act like a rogue in combat” I just prefer dual blades” she nodded before throwing him a second blade lifted her sword again this time noticing something else she wasn’t previously aware of, “You’re left handed... aren’t you?” “Yes but father thinks using your left is a sin! We have all been right handed and me being left is a deformity!” she shook her head before stating in support, “No... it just means you do everything with the opposite hand” she looked back seeing Olaf watch disgusted by what he saw made Arthur immediately switch hands and pick his shield up over the shortblade, “Remember son, US honourable knights fight with integrity and class; we rely on our style and skill over barbaric ideas!” he nodded seeing Cersei standing next to him watching down before holding his fathers arm nodded acknowledging she had an plan. “No. In war honour does not matter!” Brienne snapped slapping the shield away before handing Arthur the other blade spoke, “You fight in whatever way feels comfortable. Whether it’s with an axe, bow or dual blades; all that matters is killing the enemy!” Olaf walking down the steps before stopping in front of the woman spoke, “Remember your place woman!”

“Leave her alone!” Arthur snapped, “I can handle myself Arthur!” Brienne spoke before looking at Olaf’s sword spoke, “I heard from Arthur you are an man of your word...” “I am. A quality a lot of the other nobility lack” Brienne nodded before stating, “How about this... we duel; if you win I will let another teach him and in fact will leave you to do everything your way” “And if you somehow manage to beat me?” “You let him train in whatever way he likes! Deal?” Olaf contemplated it before Brienne baiting him in spoke, “Or are you too scared? Didn’t know Cersei took your balls since she stared to speak to you!” “You’re on!” Olaf barked drawing his sword and Brienne reaching for her Longsword waited for Olaf to pick up the shield left by Arthur.

The two duelled with Brienne first of all prying away the shield before unleashing several savage shots to the Olaf who feeling the strain tried several wild swings which caused the agile giant of an woman to dodge before finishing with holding her sword to his throat, “Drop your sword!” Olaf studied his situation before dropping it snapped, “Such barbarity!” “No it’s a skill I picked up from the Nordic folks called ”Berserker” but now if you would leave us, I have training to do!”

3 years later, Arthur’s eighteenth

What should have been a day of celebration was nothing more than a day of planning; for the last three years father had been planning to get back at Otto for stealing Margaret but a lot had changed since then, Otto with his influence became Supreme King or now ruler of the North; Margaret was **** to use her connections to support the man who married her and be the victim of constant verbal **** and humiliation from the Queen herself who by all of accounts was trying to usurp power from both. Cersei has pushed herself in further under mother’s nose and now tried to woo, father who fell uncontrollably under her spell. Alfred being the “best” son supported every decision made by father and I... well I was looked down upon for being me, father neglected me for “being left” and showing “no honour on the battlefield”, my ideas was also considered by some revolutionary whilst foreign crap by the rest of my family and my mother, well we were never particularly close but she vented her disgust at me more. However, today was different she had something to tell me and by the look of it wasn’t good.

“Arthur, thank you for joining me but Brienne please can you leave us, it’s private” Brienne bowed before turning to leave was met by Arthur’s protest of, “Mother, we both know how she knows more about me than father and even you, what you have to say to me can also be said to Brienne!” she nodded before taking a prolonged breath spoke, “To begin; I didn’t want you to find out like this. Me and your father agreed that when the time came we would sit you down quietly and explain it being as he knows more than me!” “What is it mother?” she walked to the table before lifting a covered and object spoke, “Just under nineteen years ago your father was away fighting under the king in Greece and he met a woman; they got on well and...” “He is illegitimate, you brought her here and both of you agreed to raise him as your own until the time was right for you to tell him. I’ve heard it all before” Brienne abruptly snapped, “Let me guess you want him to join the military or just disappear like the rest?” Mother shook her head before speaking, “No, I just wanted him to know; it will help explain why later any land grants or honours will be granted to your brother and not you! It also explains why the rest of the family were distant to you!” “So I don’t mean a damn thing to either of you?” Arthur spoke and looking down not denying it or confirming it despite Arthur getting his reaction from her spoke, “Your mother left this and told us to keep it safe until your eighteenth birthday!” she removed the cloth to reveal the glowing staff the hummed to Arthur luring him forward, “She said you were going to need this!” I held it up before sighing, “I don’t use a staff!” with that it shifted into a sword and glowed in response to his previous comment and presenting a new problem; on his body now appeared liked tattoos glowing golden orange lines that matched the patterns on the sword and looking back at Brienne spoke, “Just another thing to add to this shitty birthday!” she nodded before comforting him as she spoke, “I’m here for you Arthur; remember that!” he nodded before turning away spoke, “I need a drink!” “Arthur...” “What Mariam?” “You still my son even if we aren’t related!” “Leave me alone Mariam! Please!” she looked over to Brienne who nodded spoke, “I will have a word with him!”

The doors swung open to reveal Arthur who storming in joined the others at the table studying the plans, “Finally joined us, Arthur! Where’s your guard?!” “I just found some news out that hurt. Let’s just leave it as that and move on!” he studied the glowing the sword that his son now wore and nodding spoke, “We will talk about it later as a family!” “Just stop!” Arthur snapped studying the plans, “Yes, this isn’t the time. We are currently at our strongest **** size in recent years and with other arrangements we are now **** into action; the problem is we are **** to attack them instead of what we had previously hoped on playing the defensive. Our target is the grand fortress in the North. Problem is a direct **** would be suicidal and there isn’t any other mode of entry apart for a small entrance under the well. My plan was to hire some rogues from the mainland to stir some trouble and when they are is disarray we could either attack or get one of them to open the gates, problem is... they will arrive too late! We are stuck with an army with no plan!” “Can’t we siege them?” “If we siege them others will come to aid them due to over lining loyalties, we don’t want to be sandwiched in between two forces!” Alfred nodded causing Cersei to offer, “An feast we send an agent in and they kill the king, as soon as that happens we attack?” “No we have to rely on successfully getting an agent in...” Olaf spoke studying the map once more, “Can’t we just send some men in via resource wagons and they can hide until nightfall and then cause mischief?” “We don’t have men skilled enough!” Arthur studied the map before pointing at the well spoke, “That is the well and the entrance is under the bridge by the shallows, right?” Olaf nodded which caused Arthur to causally speak, “I’ll do it!” “Son, it’s suicide!” “What am I, if not a bastard?” “Son you aren’t...” “It doesn’t matter. You need someone to cause hell and I’m the only one who knows how to! It appears your resentment of my skills has come to bite you in the ass!” “Son I never resented you!” “It takes multiple different style of warriors to win a war. I might not kill kings and enemies in open combat and I might hide in the shadows for my target to expose themselves before striking but my skills are useful, I can sabotage and strike silently where you can not!” “Take your brother with you!” Olaf spoke but shaking his head Arthur spoke, “It’s better I go alone! I will raise hell and the gates will be open even if it’s my last actions” Olaf looked down defeated before stating, “If it was different!” “No, Miriam resents me, just like you do. Let’s leave it at that!” “Father what is happening?” he sighed before pulling Olaf to the side spoke, “We’ll speak of this later, bring Gwendoline, Cersei and your mother and we’ll meet you in the drawing room!”

“Son thank you for joining us, Brienne if you would...” Olaf spoke, “She knows everything, she stays!” he nodded before seeing everyone else was there waiting spoke, “Son I know this isn’t easy but...” “Just say it as it is. You had an affair, got a Greek woman pregnant, Miriam agreed to raise me as her own until the time “was right” to tell me and she left” “So you are a bastard?” Alfred queried and nodding Olaf spoke, “You are still my son, no matter who your mother is, Miriam is still your mother and Alfred your brother!” “But this changes everything, his claims are all illegitimate...” “Yes which means Arthur is at the bottom of the list to any inheritance!” Cersei bluntly spoke which made Arthur speak, “That’s why I should do this... if I die it doesn’t matter!” “It does matter!” Olaf pleaded to his son, “No it does not!” Arthur spoke getting up to study the room and not seeing any other protests heard Cersei state, “He’s right. It’s the only chance we have at winning!” Olaf looked down at the others who nodded at her comment made Olaf speak, “Just don’t get yourself killed, trying to prove yourself!” “Why would I? It won’t change what I am!” Alfred nodded before patting his younger brothers shoulder spoke, “Just make it back in one piece” Arthur pushed it away before grumbling spoke, “What a birthday I’ve had. Alfred had wenches, booze and gold; I’ve got “you’re an illegitimate bastard” and you have a suicide mission to prepare for!”

Night came and closing his bedroom door saw Brienne’s arms folded spoke, “How are you feeling Arthur?” “Still angry, like I could punch everyone and anything in sight!” she nodded before turning away to reach for a box spoke, “To stand any chance of success you are going to need this... when I was training we all had a pair for silent kills!” Arthur flipped the lid and to reveal the bracers with an blade attached to them, “Put it on!” he nodded before clenching his hand in a fist she adjusted his hand to be straight out flat until he flicked his wrist to reveal the blade draw, “Handy... so now is the time you tell me more about your past or...?” “No, that will remain a secret; for now at least.” Arthur nodded looking down until he felt a pair of arms wrap around his chest, “Brienne?!” “Happy Birthday Arthur!” she replied burying her head into his neck, “It may not be much but in response to your comment earlier; I have a few bottles of wine and myself for your birthday if you would have this haggard woman?!” he smiled pulling them both a glass of wine before saying, “Brienne for you... I always have the time; now drink up!”

Their lips met in an fiery embrace with Arthur dominating it pushing the more unexperienced woman back against the wall pinning her flush against it; preventing her from retaliating but instead letting the smaller man have his way with her in the kiss. He tore at her tunic before quickly removing his quickly followed with his trousers only breaking the kiss for that small moment before latching onto her lips once again. She unsure on what to do next let him have his way with her relying on his experiences with Cersei decide what their next cause of action should be. She waited and he knew that but all that came for the time being was kisses all along her neck and lips teasing her until she finally cried out what he wanted to hear, “Please do something else!” he obliged lowering his mouth to her manly chest playing with a breast in one hand whilst sucking the other nipple with his mouth smiling as he felt her head fell back against the wall, her hands pulling his head towards her breasts for him to continue but it was then when he stopped again this time pushing her to the floor ordering her to remove the rest of her clothes waiting for her to comply and in a hurry she did so where she was met as a reward lightly slapped by his raging erection that now laid on her grubby face, “Time to get me prepped!” she nodding hurriedly trying to get him ready sucking and kissing hungrily hoping they quicker he did this the quicker he would be giving her attention. She pushed him to the wooden floor and speeding up was met by his hands pushing her head down further moaning as he felt her gag; however to show his satisfaction pulled her on top of him her unshaven pussy over his lips. She cried into his cock feeling his tongue play with her enjoying the sensation that prodded her whilst his fingers teased her buttcheeks, “I...I want more!” she groaned feeling him push her off as he kissed her once again until she fell to her knees waiting for him to penetrate her for the first time in her life, she bit down on her lips but feeling his hands snake their way up to her breasts he spoke nuzzling into her neck, “I know you are a virgin, we don’t have to you know...” she shook her head smiling as she looked back to kiss his lips, “No, my first time should be with the only man I cared about!” he nodded pushing inside muffling her cries with a kiss until she broke it to look down and cry, “Fuck me like a slut. Don’t worry I can take it!” he cautiously sped up watching her face scrunch up until she managed to accept it but this once again changed when he slammed harder into her lifting her leg to add more emphasis to his thrusting as she climaxed for her first time that night and when he came she simply spoke, “Inside me like the whore you want me to be!” she panted sitting on the edge of bed as she looked down for her clothes, “Enjoy your present?” now standing reaching for her trousers, “Wow, where are you going?” “Any longer and it will be abusing my position!” Arthur pushed her against the wall as he savagely sucked her lips and bit down to her neck, “I’m not finished with my present yet and if I must, I’ll order you to stay the night!” she looked into his eyes smiling when his hand rubbed affectionately against her cupped hand causing her to simply nod and say, “Of course Arthur!”

Morning came and awaking to the sound of clunking armour our eyes shot open to reveal both persons naked body laying against each other in each other’s arms, “Morning Brienne!” “Sire... we should... I must, we shouldn’t have done that... that was more than just a present!” Arthur nodded before sitting up spoke bluntly, “Well, if I survive we will discuss it later!” she nodded sitting at the end of bed before stating, “I wish I was coming with you!” “We both know it’s better this way!” she nodded before standing up to look down at him vowed, “I promise to be the first through those gates to find and protect you” he smiled before throwing her shirt at her spoke, “Who knows maybe this time I will be the one protecting you!” she ventured closer to him before attempting to kiss him was interrupted by the door opening from his father, “Son...errr, do... well, okay... I didn’t expect to find Brienne here!” “I didn’t plan on being here to be truthful but here I am!” he nodded before handing Arthur the uniform spoke, “What you requested; now stay safe!” “Don’t worry about me, worry about not getting detected before I have time to distract them!” he nodded before leaving them spoke, “We will but just be careful, for your own sake!” Arthur nodded before closing the door behind him spoke, “I can’t guarantee anything!”
