I walked up to the table as servants served food, "Ah...." I said with a slight smirk, "Look at you. You look rather stunning, Tyene."
She was sitting at the table, wearing a red dress with some jewelry, her hair combed straight and adorned with some gems clipped on it. I noticed that she was wearing a gold bracelet that I had sent her as a gift a few months prior; solid gold from Lyssa's scales fashioned as dragon scales with a sun carved into it, representing House Martell.
I did not lie; she was stunning.
A beauty, through and through.
If Oren Martell did one good thing, it was that he kept this one untouched. But his death was incredibly satisfying because he did, in fact, lay his hands on the other beauty, Tyene's sister.
"My Lord....." She said as she sat there, her eyes closed, "It has been some time."
"It has." I said as I sat down
Elia smiled as she sat next to Tyene, "She was quite surprised when I told her that you had arrived." She said, "Seems that she wanted to be informed first so she can prepare."
"I did say I would come right after Maegelle gave birth." I said with a shrug while I grabbed some wine,"And she did."
"Congratulations on having twins, My Lord." Tyene opened her eyes and looked at me, "To have two sons who look like their mother, you must be glad."
"Hm." I said with a slight smirk, "I am."
"I was told you wanted to speak business, My Lord." Elia told me as she took a grape and placed it in her mouth, "What is it I could do for you?"
I took a sip from the wine, "I'll tell you, alright." I said, "I want a name. One of these highborns that are affiliated with the Red Cult, I am sure you've gotten one by now. Let me handle it, I'll take it from here."
"Well....." She said, "It is quite complicated....."
"Let me make it not complicated." I said with a serious expression, "By killing those who worship the Red God. So.....a name."
"Of course." Elia said, "Fedyr Vaith. The fifth son of Lord Vaith, who is still hanging on for dear life. He was confirmed to be meeting with the Red Priests. According to reports, there are at least a dozen of those madmen wielding flaming swords who are getting people to their cause."
"Good." I said, "Thank you for that. I will handle it."
"Right...." She said
"Now." I said as I sat the cup down, "Right to what I came here for. I am sure the two of you would like to discuss details. You must have questions, so ask away."
Tyene looked at me, "I....." She started, "Will it be done tonight?"
I smiled slightly, "If you wish for it to be done tonight." I said, "Or we can spend some nights full of pleasure before I get the job done. The choice is yours."
She blushed, "W-what?" she said, "I...No....what?"
I chuckled, "I am not joking about that."
Elia cleared her throat, "What will be done with Tyene?" She asked, "If she is to carry your child, what is her fate?"
"Her fate?" I asked with a raised eyebrow, "Her fate is to be the mother of my child, that is all."
"Yes." Elia said, "But my sister.....she-"
"She will be untouchable. Nobody in this world will dare lay a finger on her." I said seriously, "While she bears my child and long after she gives birth, she will have the luxury of having the protection of the God of War and Death. Anyone dares to lay a hair on her head, they will face my wrath."
"Right....." Elia said, "Forgive me for having some doubts...after all...what happened to...well...."
"That was an error." I said seriously, "Nothing similar will happen again. The two of you are Marked, you have a form of immortality, and when Tyene bears my child, she will be untouchable and unkillable. Her body will be reinforced to be able to handle the pregnancy and childbirth. She will be safe. My wives have had no issues whatsoever in that regard."
Tyene looked down, not saying anything.
"Good." Elia said, "What does that mean for the child when it is born?"
"What do you mean?" I asked
"The whole purpose of our arrangement was for Tyene to give you a child." She said, "Will you take the child away when the time comes?"
"That child will be named Drakkengard." I said seriously, "The child is my blood, they will spend time with their family."
"But wouldn't that be pointless?" Elia asked, "If you wanted a child you could keep in Harrenhal, why bother with Tyene? You have three wives who can provide that. You said you wanted a Child of Dorne whom the people will worship along with the Desert God. Why take the child out of Dorne? Because if you take the child away, you might as well take Tyene away. And that would nullify any intent to have Dorne worship the Trinity at the levels that you desire."
"You want to keep the child and Tyene here?" I asked, "I understand that, she is your sister. Your blood. And I understand why you would want a Drakkengard here in Dorne. You want absolute protection for you and your people. That child will be a powerful asset and you know it. But make no mistake, Elia Martell, that the child will not be a bargaining chip."
"No." she said, "The child will be my family. And you know how I feel about family. Tyene is everything to me. Any child that comes out of her, regardless of who the father is, I will love them like they are my own."
"Hm." I said
"But you're right. I want absolute certainty that my people and my family will be safe." She continued, "I don't want the child to be taken away almost immediately and have you forsake us."
"Dorne is rather important as of late." I said, "I have no intention of that. Tyene and the child will be treated well. Every month, I will have shipments of riches sent here to Sunspear. I will send my own people to oversee her care so make sure your people coexist with them. I will have Duskguard agents stationed in Sunspear to be sure that everything is well with her. I won't take any risks."
"Of course." Elia said, "So long as you keep that Mad Dog away."
"Ser Horrace is in charge of the operation here in Dorne." I said, "Any issues will be dealt with by him."
"Very well." She said
"I will be busy during the pregnancy, but I will make visits." I said as I looked at Tyene, "I will make her feel wanted and desired, this beautiful girl."
Tyene looked down and blushed, "I....there is no need for that."
"Nonsense." I said, "I will not neglect the mother of my child."
"Another thing." Elia said, "If the child is to be named Drakkengard, I want House Martell to name it."
"Oh?" I asked, "That's fine by me."
Tyene looked at me, "T-Thank you." She said,
"For giving me at least that."
