"Y-Your Grace....!!" Jeyne Penrose cried out as she collapsed on her knees, "P-Please, help me....!!!"
She was in the Throne Room, where Alysanne and Jahaerys were, speaking to the Lords that have arrived. Jeyne had suddenly burst through, clutching her side as her left arm and shoulder were soaked in nothing but blood.
The mere sight of her caused everyone to gasp in shock as Lord Penrose immediately ran to her.
"Jeyne!!!" He shouted, "What happened?! Who did this to you?!"
Alysanne ran up to her as well, "Are you okay?" She asked, "My goodness, you've lost a lot of blood!!"
Jaehaerys stood up from the throne, "Who did this?" He asked, "Who attacked you?!"
"it hurts...." Jeyne sobbed, "It hurts so much.....!"
"Get the Maesters!" Alysanne exclaimed, "Now!"
"My daughter, I will have heads roll for this!!" Lord Penrose shouted angrily, "I...will-"
"The arrows were laced with a special poison." A voice said, "While she bleeds profusely, the wound is constantly being cauterized by the heat of the poison, keeping her from truly passing out. But....the pain is amplified, making her agony all the greater."
Everyone looked up to see Mya walking in with an arrow nocked on her bow as she had it set down.
The Kingsguards drew their swords in response, considering this as a potential hostile threat.
"L-Lady Mya???" Alysanne exclaimed, "W-What are you doing?!"
"S-She attacked me!" Jeyne exclaimed, "F-Father!! She.....she's the one who did this!!"
Lord Penrose glared at Mya, "You!!!" He shouted, "H-How dare you do this to my daughter?! Who do you think you-"
He was cut off by an arrow grazing his ear, drawing blood as the arrow hit the floor behind him and shattered. Everyone gasped again and backed up as the Kingsguard took several steps forward.
"A-Aghh...." Lord Penrose said as he clutched his ear
"Acting hostile in the Throne Room will result in your arrest, Lady Mya." Jaehaerys said seriously, "I suggest that you lower the bow and explain yourself."
"I need not explain myself." Mya said, "I am simply taking care of a stupid little animal who dared threaten my family."
"A-Arrest her!!" Lord Penrose shouted, "I will have her pay for this!!"
"I need not to remind everyone here that should I be touched, the Wrath of House Drakkengard will be incured." Mya said seriously, "I hold the power to summon Ammaria to King's Landing, plunging the city into a terrible storm. And you know who else is in the Red Keep, King Jaehaerys."
"Everyone stand down." Jaehaerys said, "Nobody is to touch her."
Alysanne was holding Jeyne, "Lady Mya...." She said with a bit of a shocked face, "What drove you to do this??? I....."
"She tried to rape my son." Mya said simply
"What?" Jaehaerys said while narrowing his eyes
"Lies!!!" Jeyne exclaimed, "I was speaking to Lord Riktor, that is all!!"
"In a storage room, with no light?" Mya said as she pulled another arrow from her quiver, "With his shirt half-unbuttoned and your dress pulled down, revealing your bare cleavage? Yes, I am sure you were having a splendid talk."
Jeyne glared at her, "You....."
Alysanne immediately stood up, "Lady Jeyne, explain yourself." She said, "There is no reason for Lady Mya to act this hostile if she was not telling the truth. I will have you speak honestly."
Jeyne looked at the Queen, "But Your Grace....!" She said, tears forming in her eyes, "Why would I do that?! I am betrothed! I am to marry Lord Bolling's son! Why would I look at a boy of his age????"
Mya aimed at her, "You stupid whore."
"I will not have insults be thrown at my daughter!!" Lord Penrose shouted, "Especially by some Riverlands Bastard woman who-"
Mya aimed at him and fired the arrow, hitting him in the thigh, causing him to jerk back and scream out in pain.
"Lady Mya!!" Jaehaerys bellowed, "Stand down!!!"
Mya drew another arrow, "Anyone who takes a step towards me will be pierced with an arrow." She said seriously, "Do I make myself clear?"
"C-Calm down, Lady Mya." Alysanne said as she began to get nervous, "Let us speak of this...."
"She tried to rape my son." Mya said, "If you were in my position, Queen Alysanne, would you not feed her to your dragons?"
"I...." Alysanne started as Lord Penrose writhed in pain
"Everyone!" Jaehaerys said, "Let us just lower our weapons!!! Now!!"
The Kingsguard lowered their weapons but kept their gaze on Mya, who did not lower her bow.
"Lady Mya, please….." Alysanne said, "Let us just speak…..peacefully."
"Nobody lays a finger on my children." Mya said seriously, "Nobody insults my children or my Family. I am not in the mood to hear any of you lowly Lords open your mouths to throw insults at me. My Son!!! The Heir to House Drakkengard!!! Was insulted!!"
"Ah….." an Ominous Voice resounded through the room, "Such justfied anger…..a Mother defending her son….I am fond of this light on you, Mya…."
Drakken slowly materialized out of thin air, standing besides Mya as she drew the bowstring further back.
"Drakken!" Jaehaerys exclaimed, "Not in here! Let is resolve this somewhere else!"
Drakken wasn't looking at nobody but Mya, a slight smirk on his face as he gently caressed her chin.
"Hm…" Drakken said, "What's it gonna be, Mya?"
Mya glared at Jeyne, "I want her to suffer…." She whispered, "She laid a hand on Riktor."
Drakken then chuckled as he walked forwards and closed his eyes, sniffing the air.
"Do you smell that?" He said as he stopped a couple of feet away from Lord Penrose and his daughter, "The smell of fear, the smell of shock, anxiety, and pure...terror….."
He opened his eyes as they glowed, the dragon slit becoming more prominent as he looked right at Jeyne Penrose.
"Y-You…." She managed
"What do you think we'd do with you? Hm?" Drakken asked, "You lay your bony fingers on my son and you get away with it? Because you're some fat lord's daughter? You are pathethic."
"I…." Lord Penrose exclaimed, "She-"
Drakken waved his hand and Lord Penrose's mouth was sealed shut. His lips had merged with each other and only his muffled sounds were heard.
"There is no mercy for those who touch my family. No mercy for those who insult my wives.” Drakken said as his sclera turned pitch black,
“Only torment and suffering.”
