Chapter 126 - Scandal II

(Drakken's POV)

"What will be done about this?" I said as I paced back and forth, "Tell me, what should I do about this?"

I was speaking to Jaehaerys and Alysanne who were sitting on the couch looking down at the floor. On the other side, Saera was sitting down with a scowl on her face while crossing her arms.

"Gods...." Alysanne said, "I cannot believe she would do that..."

"Saera, how could you?!" Jaehaerys exclaimed as he stood up, "You would dare go that far?!"

"Hmph!" She said as she looked away, "So?"

"So?" Jaehaerys said, "You were willing to defile yourself to get the attention of Drakken?!"

"It worked." Saera flicked her hair

I stopped and looked at her, "You are a little shit...."

"Forgive us, Drakken." Alysanne said, "We should have taken serious precautions. I did not imagine something like this happening. I underestimated her willingness to go that far."

"It is your fault, Father!" Saera stood up from her chair, "I told you to marry us already!"

Jaehaerys scowled, "I have no say when you will marry him!" He said, "You know that!"

"You are the King!!!" Saera said as she stomped towards me, "And this is the man I was promised to! So command him to marry me now!!"

I held a burst of laughter, "Pfft!" I said, "Really? You're that naive?"

She stopped and looked at me, "My love, I want you." She grabbed my hand with hers, "Take me. Make me yours~"

I scrunched my nose, "Keep away from me." I said, with a bit of disgust

She scowled, "Do you not want me?" She said, "Am I not desirable???"

"Not to me." I said as I stepped back, "You are a child."

"Well, those knights sure did want me." She said

"Saera!" Jaehaerys exclaimed

"And they died. Your point?" I asked her, "You are mine. Not in a sexual or romantic way, little girl. In a literal way. Do you understand? You belong to me, The God of War and Death. I need not remind your parents what that means."

I leaned in and poked her forehead, causing her to scowl even more.

"Maegelle is also yours." She said

I nodded, "Right."

"And so are those two women, the Blackwood bastard and the Lannister girl." She said

"Right." I said

"You fucked them and not Maegelle?" She said

"That is not your business." I told her

"Why is Maegelle untouched???" Saera asked me

"It is her choice." Jaehaerys said, "Do not concern yourself with that, Saera...."

"Well, it is my choice too then!" She said as she placed her hand on her chest, "And I want to be taken by him! Drakken, take me as your wife and I shall show you pleasure like no other."

I stepped back and scowled, "A girl telling me that?" I said, "I do not know how to feel about that."

"It makes no sense. How different is Maegelle from me? It is merely four year!" She told me, "We are both women! We already bled! She is beautiful, yes, but I have a better body! I am more willing! Why do you refuse me?!"

"Do not question his reasons, Saera!!" Alysanne scolded, "He strictly said that by the time you are ten and eight, he will come for you. Why must you make things so difficult for us?! Seven men have died because of your actions."

Jaehaerys rubbed his temples, "Seven men who you were willing to defile you...." He said, "I....I can't believe you!!!"

"Yet I am untouched." Saera said with a smirk, "My beloved husband saved me."

"Shut up." I told her, "You are a handful, I'll admit."

"Hmph." She said, "I am promised to you, I am only doing what it is expected of me."

"No. You are not." I said, "I told you, you were promised to me as a maiden. And you will remain one until you are Eighteen. Do you understand?"

"Four years?" She said, "I will not!"

I reached for her face and clutched her by the cheeks, leaning in and giving her a glare, "You will do as you are told." I said with a menacing tone, "I will not repeat myself."

"Drakken!" Alysanne said as she stood up

I waved my free hand at her and sat her back down as I did the same with Jaehaerys, hearing him struggle.

"Leave her be!" Jaehaerys exclaimed

Saera was looking at me with a shocked expression, "L-Let go of me!" She managed, "N-Now!"

"Listen..." I said, "If you don't do as you are told, I will kill anyone that you so much as look at. There will be nothing but pain and torment in your life like you never experienced. I will ensure you are placed in a perpetual state of pain and agony. Ask your brothers what that feels like. And if that isn't enough for a spoiled little shit like yourself...I will cast you aside and take Daella instead. How does that sound?"

"N-Not Daella!" Alysanne exclaimed

"Quiet!!!" I shouted, my voice distorted as the room began to shake violently, "I have had it with you Targaryens! The mere fact that you do as you want pisses me off!! How I yearn to destroy your House, to torment all of you for eternity....and the only reason I don't is because I made a fucking deal and Maegelle is the only thing holding me back from breaking it!!"

I let go of Saera and pushed her back, seeing as she stumbled.

"Y-You..." She said with a shocked expression, "You would choose Daella over me?!"

"I would and I will." I said, "In fact, let me go and pay her a visit. See if she is willing to be my sweet little flower alongside Maegelle."

"N-No!" She exclaimed as she got on her knees and hugged my leg, "Please, Drakken! Don't cast me away, i want you! You are my love, my one true love! I love you~!"

I scowled, "You are a spoiled girl." I said, "You don't know what you love. You only want what you can't have so easily. And I am not someone you can get your daddy to acquire for you."

"I'll do anything you ask me to. Please!" She said as a tear formed in her eye, "Please, don't do this to me! Not Daella! She's boring and so stupid! Me! Take me!"

I have seen this before. Dumb and ambitious girls who would do anything to get the attention they want. I can use this and manipulate her to behave.

"After the stunt you pulled, I don't think I can trust you. Especially for four years." I leaned down and gave her a glare, "You are not worthy."

"I can be!" She said with tears in her eyes, "I want you, Drakken! I want your power, I only want you!"

"How can you be worthy of me?" I told her with a serious tone, "When you're so willing to stoop as low as filthy men like those.....you disgust me."

"Noo..." She said, "Please..."

I reached down and grabbed her by both cheeks again, "Then....four years...." I said, "Keep yourself out of trouble for four years. And when I come back the moment you turn Eighteen, into a woman....I will come back for you. And when I do, I will have you."

She smiled, "Y-You will....?"

"Only if you keep your end of the deal." I said, "And let me tell you something. The moment you do something stupid and give yourself to someone else, I will come with my Storm Goddess, take Daella, and leave King's Landing a whole month of Tempest. So think wisely."

"I will....I will keep my promise....." She said as she dug her face in my leg, "Don't forsake me, I want only you..."

"Fine." I told her as I straightened up, "It is settled."

She then looked up at me, "Let us settle it with a kiss~" she said with a smile, "Please~!"

"No." I said

"A kiss!" She said, "It won't have to be on the lips! On the cheek! Give me a kiss on the cheek."

"Ugh...." I groaned, "Fine...you stupid little shit...."

She stood up and got on her tiptoes, closing her eyes and smiled brightly, "Kiss me, my beautiful man~"

I leaned down and kissed her on the cheek, feeling a bit annoyed by this.

"Ahhh~~" She said as she blushed, "My love, my man.....he kissed me....."

I sighed, "Seriously...." I said, "This one is a pain in the ass. Remember our deal."

She nodded, "I will....." she said as she looked at me, "I....I cannot wait...."

I noticed Alysanne and Jaehaerys were looking at me with awe, completely baffled at what just transpired.

I pointed at them, "You are welcome." I said, "Next time, keep your fucking children controlled. I won't guarantee a peaceful resolution like this again."

"Do you imbeciles understand?"
