Draped In Silk Part Two
@bastardsonofthenorth
The green silk dress hugged Ygrittes body nicely, loosening around her knees and flowing past her feet. She had brushes the knots out of her hair as Ghost brought a black fur coat to her side, his wet nose nudges her arm as she picked it up. She thanked him with a chin scratch. As she threw it around her shoulders the warmth of the fur began to fight back the coldness of the stone room, she had never owned furs quite like this before, She hardly recognized herself in the mirror.
She made her way towards the dining room, like Sansa had told her, but was stopped by two winterfell guards in the yard below her room. "Lady Ygritte" she looked towards them. "lady Ygritte, His grace has asked that you meet him by the Godswood. He asked us to escort you there." She frowned at that last part "Thank you, but I'm sure Ghost will escort me there just fine." Spinning on her heels she began to march in the wrong direction till Ghost took her coat in his mouth and pulled her to the right path.
Her mind began to overflow with reasons as to why he would want to meet her there and why he sent two men to collect her so late at night. Was he leaving her? She chewed her nails at the thought. "No" she said under her breath "no don't be stupid, maybe he has something secret to tell me." There was no one around to talk to but Ghost so she spoke down towards him "why am I over thinking this? Why are my hands shaking?"
There he sat, under the white tree with leaves as red as the life blood That flows within her. Ygritte had never seen a tree with a face before. She moved towards him slowly taking in every detail she could about her surroundings stopping when she came to the small pond, the water blacker then anything she had ever seen before. Ygritte tore her eyes away to find Jon's, a look of worry across her face as she moved closer to him. Ghost had found his place by Jon's side and rested himself in the snow. "Jon... why have you brought me out here? Is there something the matter?"
