Chapter 13 - The first dance.
Lady Larissa of House Whitby. The name also sounded oddly familiar. Everyone knew the Whitbys. Who didn't?
They were a noble household that most people liked to forget existed. All because Silver Falcon also known as Lord Earn was a religious fanatic. After his fallout with the king about a decade ago, he had stopped attending court, a development that relieved everyone so much that they stayed away from him. His radical views and approach to matters was different from everyone else in court, safe to say the King had been looking for a way to dispose him for a while.
He was never seen in court since then, only deigning to send emissaries when it was necessary. His wife had died years ago, but they had a son who got married to the daughter of a famous merchant. Both happened to have died far away from Castamere in a horrible sea accident just a few years after their daughter was born. Lord Earn was the one who took care of his granddaughter.
But after his fallout

The Heir and the Dragon Prologue.
Her village was one of the small nameless village that thrived at the foot of the Vamier mountains. She knew that she never belonged there. The children of the village were dark haired headed and brown eyed. She was different. With pale skin that looked like she was born under the cold mountains of Everus and hair as white as snow and eyes a bright amber auburn that looked fiery in the light.Her village was small enough to be nameless and they were mostly crop farmers. Thriving on the produce of the little crops they could plant in their tiny backyard. Villagers rarely left the small settlement. There really wasn't much to see. News of the city was slow to reach them but it reached them everyday. The political unrest between Everus and Castamere was growing everyday. The two kingdoms although close to each other, were always at war, so much so that anyone from Everus comin

She ran across the halls with glee and stupid abandon as Sal chased her and sweared at her.He always hated it when she took his sword but she couldn't help it. Sal had more love for the sword more than he loved himself. He had deemed it his lucky sword ever since he sparred with Tommen and won gloriously. Ever since then he had earned more victories only when he used the sword. She thought it was ridiculous that he thought the sword to be his lucky charm."Summer!! I swear when I get you you'd be sorry!!!" he shouted."I'll like to see you try!" She replied as she ducked ungracefully as a servant carrying a tray of hot towels curses loudly."Watch it Summer!!" she shouted back."Sorry Emily!" She shouted back as she swerved into a corner sharply and came to a sudden halt.Lady Lucia was glaring at her with bright vivid blue eyes. She was wearing a bright pink dress and her face was slowly
The Heir and the Dragon Chapter 2 - The Invitation.
It was around midnight when everyone in the Wells household had retired for bed, that was when Summer slipped out of her room as quickly as possible gently tiptoeing to Maven's room.She tapped on the door in code while looking around suspiciously before Maven opened the door and pulled her in. He was shirtless wearing nothing but pants and he seemed to have grown more muscle than the last time she saw him."I have been expecting you" he whispered as he buried his nose in the crook of her neck.Summer was happy , she had taken extra care to take care of herself. She lightly rubbed perfumed oils into her skin. The ones she had stolen from Astra's room. It was not like Astra would ever notice. She had so many of them."You smell delicious" he growled huskily and he brought his lips down to hers.She broke away and looked at him with a silly smile on her face. Her heart
The Heir and the Dragon Chapter 3 - Queenstrial.
The Wells house had been a flurry of activities. Ever since Astra's invitation to Queenstrial, everyone had been running helter shelter like headless chickens. Everyone except Summer of course.Being Astra's handmaiden meant that she would have to go to the Grand Palace in Wyeth. Wyeth was the kingcity for the rich and noblest of nobles inside Ludmilla.She didn't want to go to Wyeth, going to Wyeth meant she would never get to see Maven. She didn't know how much time he had before he went back to service. And she wanted to spend every minute with him but Lady Lucia was doing everything in her power to prevent that.She had also been trying to fail hopelessly at being an handmaiden, at least it would save her from going to the Grand Palace in Wyeth. But Astra was determined to keep her as her handmaiden. She liked the fact that Summer was suf
The Heir and the Dragon Chapter 4- A dangerous Intervention.
After almost an hour in the carriage ride, Sal and the guards stop the carriage to feed the horses. The stopped at the Forest of Abbot. The last stop before they reached the King City, Wyeth."Ugh! Why did we stop?"Astra complained as she stomped her foot on the carriage floor and she could not wait to leave. There was excitement in her veins. Going to the Queenstrial was the biggest moment of her life. Being Queen was even bigger.She could almost imagine it. That sort of power at her fingertips. She was going to charm the Crown Prince, she would do anything she could to make him hers.She wasn't going to let anything ruin it. Besides, she had to get there early enough to check out the competition.Summer got out of the carriage quickly, with the h
The Heir and the Dragon Chapter 5 - Lost in the woods.
Summer woke up in a tent. Her whole body ached badly, like she had been hit repeatedly with a log of wood.She was in a filthy tent, with the crude smell of dirt and liquor pungent in her nostrils. Her head was banging. The pain was unbearable and searing and she felt like she was going to collapse under the pressure.She blinked her eyes a few times as she tried to get used to her surroundings but it was futile. She didn't know where she was, or why she was there.All she knew was that she had been kidnapped by some strange bandits. Some men who had attacked their carriage.What did she have to do with them? She thought angrily and shook her head.They must have mistaken her with
The Heir and the Dragon Chapter 6 - Wyeth.
The rest of the ride to the castle was quiet. Very quiet. Sal was lost in his thoughts, hoping there was a way they could get to Wyeth as soon as possible and he would leave.Their rest of the trip had been smooth without any hitches or anymore trouble. At least he was grateful for that.He had to make sure Astra arrived at the castle first, safe and sound before making any plans to leave.Even though she had been unharmed, she was shaken a little bit. And she was still very angry and frightened for some reason he couldn't understand.She had been safe in the carriage while they the bandits had been fought off, she had been safe. He didn't understand why she continued to make a big deal out of the issue.
The Heir and the Dragon Chapter 7 - An offer of freedom.
Summer woke up to the sound of breathing that wasn't her own. It was heaving, like a man and it was rapid as if he was running into the room. She listened, still, trembling. He started moving slowly, his heavy feet creaking floor boards that were silent for her. She rolled to her left and slid down the crack between the bed and the wall, praying that an empty bed will send him away.The door creaked and she could tell he was inside already."Get up girl."The Old man's voice said and she slowly looked up. She was slightly shivering out of fear.She had no idea where they were or where they were going. She only knew that whatever it was that was happening wasn't going to end well for her.The l
