House of The Dragon-A God Amongst Men-Chapter 210: Clutches

(Drakken's POV)

"We're ceasing assaults?" Mya asked me as I sat on the table

"For now." I nodded, "Send word to Jon over at The Twins that he should keep that area completely locked down."

"Of course." She said, "I will do that."

Saera sat down next to me, "Is this a good idea?" She asked, "Stopping the carnage?"

"Of course it is." I said with a slight smirk, "What better way to spend the time than to give your father anxiety about my next move. He's not an idiot, he knows what I am doing. But the truth is, having the Riverlands locked down and completely under my control is the best tactic. The surrounding regions will have no way of aiding the Crownlands without taking risks."

She frowned, "Can they not sail around?"

"A foolish thing to do." Mya told her, "That will require time, and it would be too late by the time they go around. The only regions that would ever have a chance of putting a fight in this situation are the Reach and the Vale. The Stormlands are held hostage by Ammaria while the Westerlands are controlled by House Lannister, who are allied to us."

"Fighting the Duskguard head-on is not a bright idea." I said, "And if your Father decides to use his dragons, he knows what will happen."

Saera raised an eyebrow, "You will use that thing?" She asked, "The one that destroyed Driftmark?"

I nodded, "That is right."

"I do not understand." Saera said, "You went around killing everyone and now you stop?"

"Our Lord does whatever he desires when he desires." Mya told her, "You'd do well to remember that. If he decided to feast on the blood of his enemies, wiping out bloodlines, then there is nothing anyone can do. If he decides to stop abruptly and sit back and watch what everyone will do, then nobody can do anything about it."

Saera looked at her, "You seem to know a lot about him."

"Not to brag, but I am the first of his followers." Mya stood up, "I am the first ever to worship him as the one true god. I am the First of The Trinity, the one who gave birth to his Firstborn. Do you understand the significance of that?"

Saera smiled slightly, "Somewhat." She said, "But are you his wife?"

"Enough." I said as I stood up, "I will not have the two of you at odds with each other. Do I make myself clear?"

"I will send word to Jon, My Lord." Mya began to walk away, "After that, I will stay in touch with Ezra."

I nodded, "Thank you, Mya."

As she left, I looked at Saera who was giving me a slight smirk.

"What?" She said as she lowered the strap of her dress down, revealing her cleavage a bit more, "Want me?"

"Show Mya some respect." I told her seriously, "She speaks truth. She is the First. Her standing in this House is solidified. I will not have anyone disrespect her."

"Hm..." Saera said, "Because she gave you a son."

"Because she gave me my first Son." I said seriously, "That is not something anyone could say. Riktor is my firstborn, that is always a significant thing."

"Hm....." Saera smiled, "Forget about that. I can give you a better son, a perfect son. One of dragon's blood....."

"Riktor is of True Dragon's Blood. My blood." I said seriously, "Do you think that you white-haired, purple-eyed, wyvern-riding imbeciles would even be considered Dragons?"

She frowned, "Don't call me that." She said as she stood up, "That hurts my feelings."

She reached my chest and began to rub it.

"Riktor is my Heir. He and Sylas are meant to become powerful warriors that will lead this House with their strength." I said, "None of this political bullshit that you might be trying to get at."

"You speak like I cannot give you a strong son, stronger than Riktor or Sylas." She said with a smile, "I can give you the perfect ruler. A perfect King."

"King?" I raised an eyebrow

"Think about it." She said as she wrapped her arms around my waist, "You can be rid of my Father, whether by exile or death...and you can put a Targaryen on the throne. This way, not everyone would be opposed to having you in control."

"You would have your brothers killed for this?" I asked, "Their sons too?"

"No." She said with a smirk, "Exile them. I am not too keen on killing Baelon's boys.....but if they pass away, I won't lose sleep."

"I will not waste my time and thoughts on that stupid throne." I said with a scowl, "That does not interest me. Thrones can be built by anything. I can build a throne from the bones of your Family's dragons."

"Then do that." She said, "My point is that I can give you that King....just put him in me....I promise you that he will be a warrior who will bend everything and everyone to their knees. He will be stronger than Riktor. I am sure of it. I admit that boy of yours shows promise. He will be a fine man when he grows up."

"Nobody will be stronger than Riktor." I said seriously, "I have high expectations for him. Expectations he will meet. And if this perfect warrior that you give me does happen to come to be, they will not surpass him. But that's only IF I decide to put a child in you. For now, your body will pleasure me."

She smiled, "Very well." She said, "That is all I want at the moment. But is it so wrong to think of my future? Our future?"

"As long as it does not interfere with my plans.....with House Drakkengard, with the Trinity...." I said seriously, "I don't care. But...you are part of my House....you are my woman. And do I need to remind you that your sister and the other two are also mine? I do not want your mentality to cause issues, Saera. I am giving you this single warning: Behave."

"I only live for you, My Love." She kissed my hand, "Only you, my one true love, Drakken. I love you with all my being, you have no fucking idea. I would die for you, I really would."

"But you won't." I gently grabbed her by the chin, "You.....are immortal.....via the Mark of The Trinity.....My Mark."

"I know." She said softly, "I thank you for this honor, My Love. Fuck.....I want you take me right here and now....just....pin me hard against the table and shove your cock into me. I want you so bad....."

"Ahem..." a voice said

We both looked to the side to see Maegelle standing a few feet away from us.

"A-Am I...interrupting something?" She asked with a raised eyebrow

"Sister~" Saera smiled as she hugged me, "I was just asking Drakken to fuck me so hard that I forget how to walk~"

"I....heard that...." Maegelle said, "Drakken, can I speak to you....alone?"

"Hm..." I said, "Very well."

"Eh, why?" Saera said, "Do you have something to hide, Sister?"

"Saera, give us privacy." Maegelle said as she placed her hand in front of her

I gently slapped Saera's behind, "Go on." I said, "Wait for me in your bed, I'll be right there."

"Ohoho~" She said as she began to walk away, "That is what I like to hear. Very well, Sister, you best not overdo it, you are with child."

"That is not what I...." Maegelle said with a frown, "Nevermind..."

Saera had already left the room when my beautiful Maegelle looked at me with that concerned look she always has when I start a war.

I walked up to her and gently patted her stomach, feeling the lifeforce of my child in her.

"Hm." I said, "What is it?"

She looked at me and gently grabbed my hand, "I...." She said softly,

"I wish to speak about the Dark Shade."
