#24 "forgive me, but I'm not feeling very patient right now" with soft!dark! Koner please
KONER!!! oh god i missed him <3
warnings: slightly dubcon smut (18+ only!!), established relationship, kinda free use kink, somnophilia, cockwarming
You hissed as he stirred you from sleep with a slow, deep thrust. Your hand instantly found his on your hip, squeezing it tight in response to the unexpected stretch.
"P-please," you gasped, "I'm still sore..."
"Shh," he soothed in a whisper beside your ear, "you'll be just fine, love... you'll take my cock just fine..."
You winced as he slid deeper, until his hips were seated against yours fully and he sighed with relief.
"Fuck, missed how warm you are," he explained with a groan. "Didn't think you'd get to sleep through the whole night next to me, did ya?"
He chuckled a little as he started to thrust-- rather aggressive and fast for how slow he'd started out. "Koner!" you yelped in pain. "Slow down!"
"Forgive me," he growled, "but I'm not feeling very patient right now..."
You weren't sure he was ever patient. Sex with Koner was brutal, desperate, and constant. You might not have agreed to this if you had realized how insatiable he really was-- you recalled one day (not that you recalled it especially well) where he came inside you no less than seven times... you figured surely his body would give out by the third, but nope, he was still hard and hungry and happy to bend you over to have his way with you.
Then again, he'd also made you realize how desperate you could be: oftentimes it started like this, with you groaning at him to cut it out and leave you alone for a minute, but it all ended with-- well, with something like this.
"Gods," you moaned, arching your back as his fingers circled faster over your bud; your head collided with his shoulder and he hummed proudly, breathing against your cheek.
"Good girl," he praised, "see-- knew this pretty cunt could take me again. Fuck, you're always so wet for me... and look how hard your tits have got already."
His hand moved from your clit to your breasts, groping and pinching them roughly as he fucked you faster, until you were rocking quickly across the bed.
"You don't even need me to touch you there to come anymore, do ya?" he realized. "Fuck, little cunt's gonna cream on me anyway. Well go ahead, love-- show me how much you like it when I use you."
"Fuck, fuck--!" you gasped, starting to shiver all over and clench inside as it hit you. He held you tight and fucked you through it, eventually rolling you onto your stomach so he could lay on top of you and slam into you ruthlessly. You gasped and cried with each deep thrust, eventually going limp as your moans were muffled by the pillow.
Soon enough, he came inside you with a long, low groan before relaxing on top of you. It was sort of a lot of weight, and you wriggled to try to get him to roll off so you could breathe better, but he just chuckled lowly and kissed your head. "Think I'll fall asleep like this," he purred, "cock still inside... that way I don't have to do anything when I wanna fuck you again in the morning."

After I finished GOT and it got me thinking that I do want to write for Koner so I did it. I know a lot of you are not into GOT, but this one got me 😭 I feel I want to tag @paybacksawitch 🖤 Enjoy it!!
“We told her to wait. We were standing right next to her and…”
As Lady Stark looks away in disappointment.
Second soldier finished sentences for him, “and- and when we’d turned around, she’d gone, my lady. She- she was nothing. Some winter town girl.” He looked at the soldier and gave him the look ‘help me?’
Koner can tell his face. “Comes in asking for, uh, Ser Rodrik…“
“Rodrik, yeah,” Nodding Henk head
He nodded and continued, “…and Maester Luwin.”
“Luwin, yeah. And don’t trouble yourself over it, my lady. We’ll- we’ll find her.”
Lady Stark knows what he was talking about, Arya only knows this because she is family, family knows things. She smiles and tells them that they don’t need to find her because she knows where her little sister is. She tells them to go back and let her do business.
Koner and Henk went back to the front and froze their asses off. They sure don’t like doing the guard front door but they want to keep everything safe.
Koner never wanted to be a soldier in the first place, his dream is to be a farmer. All he wants is to grow corn, tomatoes, onions and sell to the people and give some to the homeless too, for free. But he has another dream is to be with you and have a family, you both have been together for 3 years. The first time we met was at the bar.
First day it wasn’t romantic. You were a whore and he was horny. When he walks into the bar to get the beers with his partners, cheering up drunkenly, caught in his eyes on you, his heart beating so fast. Fuck he think you are beautiful he ever seen
Scanning all over your body with a pretty deep red dress, split in half to show off your naked leg. Top is deep green and tight to make your breasts pop out and the clothes sleeves fall deep down your arms. You were giggling at the drunk ugly man with a heavy beard.
Your eyes caught on him too, you gave him a sweet smile and wink. His cheeks turned deeply red. Walk up to him to ask if he wants to have private and get fuck, he said yes.
You both walk in the backyard, behind the bar. He gives you sweet sex but you told him that you are fine with rough but he just wants to show you how much he cares for you and soft sex. You didn’t believe it at first but it was the most amazing you ever had, it was mind blowing and the first time you actually cum with him, you never had once with other men. Koner was absolutely perfect. You do want to get to know him because you really want to be with him.
Koner shift is finally over and went home to be with you again. The door opens and sees you’re stirring the dinner, possibly the boring goat stew but it was hardly food around here and he knows your food is always delicious. He loves you too much
“Hi darling” Koner smiles at you as take cape off of him
“Hi Koner!” You set bowls down on the table. He walks toward you and gives you a sweet kiss.
You’re so in love with this man, he treats you like his queen, he is not like other men and he is the number one.
“Mmm. I love you.” He mumble as his lips still on you
You smile as giggling, both pull apart. “I love you too. Dinner should be ready.” You just about move but he stops you. Koner told you to sit down so he can do it himself, he loves to help you out since you are 7 months pregnant. He just wants you relaxed but he knows you can’t stop moving around.
Why is he so good to you? He made your heart flutter and your stomach flutter with butterflies except there’s actually a baby inside of your stomach and you both can’t wait to meet him. You know it’s a boy, it’s the feeling.
He poured the soup into your bowl and same as his. Koner sat down, usually you always asked how’s his day but he didn’t let you speak
“You never guess who showed up at the gate.” Slurping the soup, made a sound ‘mm’
You look at his gorgeous brown cow eyes, the perfect eyes, you are hoping the baby has his eyes.
“Who?” As tilting your head
“Arya Stark”
You drop your jaw, eyes wide. “But she was dead”
“I thought so too. So was Bran. Guess all Stark bring them back alive, just like the wights and white walkers”
You scrunchy nose, why does he have to bring that up? You can’t imagine that Koner is really going to be fight with wights, you know they are dead and came back alive by Night King. One more month before it all starts happen.
You did beg him not to go with them, run away together and never go back but he said that he had to stay to help them since Eddard Stark saved Koner's father alive from the wilderings. He promised you when the war is over then you both can run out and find a new home with a big yard, so he can grow his own vegetables.
You want to believe his words but the wights? No one can survive that. You have been praying to god in forever, keeping him alive and stay with you to watch our son grow up, grown old together
Please keep him safe
The war is today.
You both say goodbye to each other, you never want to say goodbye to him, you want to bring him down under the castle and keep him safe.
“Hey, my lady, look at me” his thumb wipes the tears off your cheeks but tears haven’t stopped falling. He only called you ‘my lady’ because you are his lady, not Lady Stark. You.
You look up at his eyes, shaking lips, you don’t want to leave him and you don’t want him to go to war. You haven’t stopped crying for two days because you've been having nightmares of Koner that he keeps dying and dying.
“Please don’t go” you quivering lips, breathing fitfully and clenched your hands tightly with his.
“You know I have to fight war. I promise you, I’ll come back for you. I want you to stay with Stark and others. I love you and the baby.” He kissed your belly and then to your lips, tasting little salt from your tears.
Pull apart. Your forehead against his. “You better come back because if you don’t, I’ll kill you”
He chuckled, a smile reached his eyes. Koner never wants to leave your side, either and he keeps having nightmares too, all he sees is the dead person reaching you and baby. It was holding the knife and stabbed you both. Koner keeps praying to god to keep you safe.
His eyes caught on the dwarf just about to walk to the door, he yelled at him and Tyrion turned around to look at Koner.
“Can you please keep her safe?”
Tyrion eyes bounced on you, looking down at your arms holding your belly and back on him again. He gives him a nod, he will keep eyes on you. Gone downstairs and disappeared.
You look at the other man just about walking past and you yell at his name. You do know him since he keeps fixing your knives to make them sharper.
Gendry found you, he recognized you.
You walk up to him and take his hand. “Please bring Koner back to me. I need you to keep him safe for me please? I can’t live without him.” Your eyes filled with tears. You have no idea how long you've been crying today, possibly in the morning, you just can’t handle the feeling in your heart and it is ripping into many pieces. It hurts so much
Gendry squeezes your hands to let you know that he will keep eyes on him for you. He wants to keep promises but doesn’t know how and doesn’t dare to tell you the truth, just go with lies.
You want to hug Koner for one last time, hugs very tightly. He really doesn't want to let go as his nose buried your neck to remember your smell and feel you.
He lets go and puts his hands on your cheeks, his thumbs immediately reaching to brush away your tears and keeps telling you that he loves you and you have to be brave for him and you will be brave for him but you feel weak. Being a brave is so hard for you, all you can think of him fighting with a dead person and thousands more
Koner gives you one last kiss while his hand on your belly. Walking away from you was the hardest he ever did and not to look back but he can hear your sobbing, his eyes full of glossy.
Koner is standing on top of the castle with an arrow in his hand and waiting when wights show up. Never thought in million years but he’s fucking terrifying, all he can think is you, your smile, voice, pretty eyes colour and your beautiful soul. Seeing you only makes him feel better but you’re not with him and it makes him more afraid.
“You’ll be okay”
A voice suddenly came from beside Koner. The eyes land on the little girl, it’s Arya. Why is she here? Should she be with her sister?
“I have fought in my life and am still standing here. Do you want to know how I do that?” She watches him nodding his head. “I always said to myself ‘Not Today’” she smiled at him, turning her head to look at the front, her brows furrowed as if wondering what she was seeing.
He noticed, looking somewhere Arya saw that someone was walking to the House Targaryen group. It’s hard to tell who in the dark, the person is in red. He think it’s Melisandre, what the fuck is she doing here? Koner remembers that Jon Snow doesn’t want her to come back.
Unexpectedly, all the House Targaryen swords full of flames got him in awe. It was very neat to see this and it looks like they definitely can defect white walkers/wights. Fire is their weakness. Hope it works.
He watched them riding off, further and further. Koner has no idea how far they are but can see their flames are fighting with dead people and can hear them yelling. But it got worse because it was getting less and less, flames just about going out.
They disappeared.
“Fuck” he murmured.
Not a lot of them ran back to their own safe again, he’s not ready for this. Shit, he should have listened to you, run away, far away from here and spent with you forever. What the fuck was he thinking? It’s all too late, he can’t go back
Can’t help it but his hands are shaking, cold steaming out of his mouth from heavy breathing. Wights just about ran into the Daenerys Targaryen group, pushing them and stabbing them.
Koner listening to their screaming makes him feel so horrified and watching them bleeding out, he can’t get his eyes off of them. He hopes Daenerys is ready for the flames up around the woods fence.
Wights getting closer and closer. He raises his arrow, amid the dead people, waiting to hear some say ‘fire’ and- shit hope he won’t miss it. Jesus his hands can’t stop shaking.
“FIRE!”
Letting go the flame arrow, flying right at the wight but still running, he picks it up and keeps hitting at them, some missed. Koner caught in his eyes that the old man was waving the flames, that a sign for the dragon ready to blow the fire at the woods fence but she can’t see us, the storm is too thick to see.
Melisandre walks out of the gate and does the spell like she did the swords with flame up. She did it, she did burn them all!
Thought he could be happy but notice the wights blocking the flames. Fuck! They keep coming and keep coming and they’re not stopping, fires won’t stop them.
Wights climb up the brick walls and toward Koner as he pulls the sword out and slices their neck, stabs the next dead person into the head and turns his body as the dead man runs to him, pushing sword into the eye. Wights keep coming out more, it’s too many of them as he runs down the stairs and doesn't dare to look back.
When he finally gets out of the stairs but this is not what is in his mind as the wights are everywhere and the dead giants are here too. Watching them is horror, soldiers keep dying. Lady Mormont runs up to the giant but he grabs her to pick her up and squeezing the little girl suddenly she stab into his eye with a special knife. Both fall down to the ground
His heart pounding and trying close his eyes but he can't, he just running and running away from all before too late
Unexpectedly two of them jump on Koner, fall down and one more on him as they crawl over him, he grabs the small knife so he can stop them before they’ll kill him but wights keep falling on him and he keeps screaming and screaming.
Bouncing your knees nervously. You can hear them up there, screaming and growling. Want to hear nothing, hope you can go deaf and not listen to them because you really can't stop picturing him with all monsters
You look down at your belly as you rub around to feel him, the baby has been kicking for a while, thinking he is afraid too.
“Is it your first time?”
You turn your head to look at the pretty lady beside you. You were wondering what was the first time, her eyes were looking at your belly.
You nodded and smiled but didn’t reach your eyes, you want to be in his arms again like right now.
“You’re nervous, I can tell. I raised my son alone too, I was so terrified but when I looked at him after birth I knew I could do it. Scared or not, you can do this.” Gilly smile at you
You really hope you are not doing this alone, alone seems tough. You have no idea how Gilly did this but when she got a new husband it seemed to get better for her with little Sam.
Notice that she stood up to look over there wondering what she heard of, it’s more wights crawling out of the walls and she yelled at everyone to get away from it. Everyone stood up and ran away but where to go?! The door is closed, not allowed to get out and there is no way out so they all just keep running around to get away from them.
Wight grabbed your ankle and you fell down on your side, you shot up and it crawled over you. You’re screaming as pushing a dead person off of you but it’s too strong and it is getting closer and closer to your face. Closing your eyes as if you think this is the end of your life, dying with your baby inside of your belly.
Feel the body stop moving and drop onto you. Open your eyes, the knife is in the head. Lift your chin up wondering who stabbed it, it’s Tyrion. He saved you. He pushes the body off of you and hand up to ask you to take his hand.
You take his hand and push yourself up and run together away from the wights. You both join them and try to keep alive but all wights just keep crawling out and run to them, eat them, tear their skins apart and pull the stomach out, blood is everywhere.
They’re getting closer and closer, one of them just about reach you as you screaming in terror
Night King is finally dead, so the white walkers, same as the wights
They have no idea of it is safe again as they keep checking the bodies to make sure they stay fucking dead. Some of them looked around to see if anyone was alive, not a lot of them but it was great for them still alive again.
People walk out of the underground, Lady Stark and Tyrion look around, it was horrific in their eyes as they thought. Thankfully as Tyrion found his brother alive. Same as Lady Stark's brother, Jon but when she found the body belonging to Theon, she was bawling for him, she loved him very much.
Breaking your heart to watch her but where is your Koner? You keep searching around the place, only full of dead bodies but no sign of Koner. You found Gendry, standing on top of piles of bodies, his eyes caught you and made his eyes wide. Your heart pounding, feel ready to throw up
Is he alive? Please tell me he’s alive. You think. You can read his face and it made your heart shattered, tears already falling down your cheeks. No. He cannot die. Koner promised you, he’ll come back for you. He promised!
Falling down on your knees and hands on the bloody ground, bawling so hard. Your lover is gone, he’s gone forever. You never felt this before and it hurt so much, want to stop but how?! Your throat felt tight and sore from crying.
You can hear someone calling your name and make your head shot up, you’re familiar with that voice. Stand up straight and turn around.
Eyes went wide as hands cover your mouth, gasps. Koner is standing there, covered with dirt and blood, you can't tell if he hurt but he’s alive!
You run toward him, arms wrap around his neck and his arms wrap around your waist, tightly. God it felt so good to be in your arms and you really can't stop crying, you’re so happy to have him back again.
Koner can feel your body warm against his chest, he wasn’t sure if he was alive or dead but he can feel you, hear you and the belly, he can feel the baby moving around. Knowing he is alive.
Now it's time to get the hell out of here.
Three years later, the beautiful hot summer. You hang up the laundry on the rope while watching Koner ripping the corn out and give it to his son, little Ron put corn into the basket. Father was smiling at him.
You can't wait to have more future with him, a son and a baby daughter on your back, sleeping. Everything is finally safe, no more Night King, no more soldiers for him.
Watching Koner and Ron walking up to you, the little boy wants to show you the biggest corn he has ever seen. You smile, you love him so much, same as Koner. He leaned to your lips and kissed it then kissed his baby daughter forehead and it made her smile, got his heart flutter. He loves this family so much. His dream finally came true.

Note: I hope a lot more writers will write stories for these characters and I'm sure we're all excited to read more stories about it.
Tom would rub your hair watching you fondly suck his dick
Ralph wouldn’t know where to put his damn hands and he squirms so much
Eddie would fuck your throat as soon as he reached his peek
Billy would moan utterly loud after you tell him it’s normal and okay to let it out
Konner would make sure you knew you were a dirty cunt and tell you to keep going -♌️
yes yes mhm mhm
this is correct. i support this. thank you for your service, little leo nonnie <3
(also koner calls you a dirty whore, but he means it affectionately. he loves that you’re a dirty whore, especially since you’re his dirty whore. he makes the words ‘dirty whore’ sound like a genuine compliment, because to him, they are. they way he says those words when he calls you his dirty, greedy whore makes it sound like the highest praise one could ever hope to receive. he’s a pathetic lil loverboy, hopelessly in love with his depraved lil whore <3).
also yeah!!! billy’s loud!! he can’t help it!! he’s especially sensitive to touch so everything you do to him feels so insanely good for him all the time.
i am down so astronomically bad for billy knight i swear. it’s honestly pathetic at this point. but he’s just… god he’s so anehhdbshehehehbrbrbrbebsbwvqvbabavagrbjroepeornrbrvveghanabebbdbdbdbdnf!!!!

“a nearby inn should be close, m’lady.”
the soldier quipped, the cold air brushing the soft skin of your face. you shivered, snow seized to be in your vision as your white mare huffed alongside your breathy sigh. the cloth of furs draping over your body were a comfort as this convey you’ve set on was tiring and undoubtedly cold. you don’t know how many days you’ve been riding with two of the soldiers your father commanded to accompany you, all you had in mind was to arrive tomorrow as early as possible for sansa.
“we’ll be by winterfell tomorrow?” you asked, licking your lips, feeling the coldness chap them. you were thankful to have your cloak on as you couldn’t imagine wanting frostbite on the tips of your ears. you’ve seen worse on soldiers before, not a pretty sight.
“should be, m’lady. once we settle in for the night, we’ll get there in no time.” your other soldier answered, you nodded, gloved hands clutching the leather reins. you wanted to visit lady sansa stark ever since the heavy occurrences had happened, the whole of westeros was still healing and the snow of the north still embodied the frozen chill of what had tragically happened. your father had complained to give you a bigger convey and a carriage to escort you but you declined, knowing well a big attraction would gain the attention of bandits and thieves. and as defenseless you are, two soldiers were enough to protect you from anything.
“might i ask, m’lady, what is your business in winterfell? it’s no common convoy for a lady like you to be traveling in a small group.” the older man asked, turning his head back at you with a smile.
“just meeting an old friend.” you simply replied, offering a small smile in return. “it’s been a while since i’ve been in winterfell.” you added softly.
“are you to be wedded, m’lady?” the younger one asked with a smug grin. the urge to roll your eyes was at the verge, the older one seem to sense your annoyance as he let out a gruff chuckle. men.
“no.” you shake your head, focusing ahead as the sound of hooves dragging on the snow thickened. the two men continued on in front of you, idling a conversation about the younger one’s opinion about the maid he had been fucking. it was annoying to hear men chatter about, but you were used to it. not a day goes by where women are seen to be a object for all men, it angered you greatly but it is how things are seen still. being a daughter to a noble house made it worse knowing your duty was to be a wife for a wealthy lord, give him heirs and be a great daughter to your house. a literal broodmare you were.
you let out a sigh, creating a tiny fog as you turned your head to see the snowy trees above you. you always admired the white snow, soft and beautiful yet deadly cold. you remembered your childhood days when you were playing around with sansa or even arya when the snow got too thick after a night’s storm. snowmans and creating snow angels, it put a smile on your face as you gazed upon ahead until a sudden ruffle in the bushes made you sharply turn your head to the direction of it.
“halt.” the older soldier put his gloved hand up as you pulled the reins to stop. he had sense it too, the sudden noise. “keep your ears open, lad.” he turned to the young soldier as he nodded.
“direwolf?” you asked, knowing the woods hold in a number of beasts. wolves, bears or what.
“could be. but no pack has set it’s territory here.” the older man snickered, glaring at the bushes. you gripped the reins tight, an unknowing dread lurking in from the back of your neck. whatever it is, you didn’t like the idea of something is ambushing the three of you.
“should i check it out?” the younger lad gripped the heel of his sword, the older one shook his head as no other rustle in the bush was emitted. could be a hare or some squirrel by the looks of it maybe. a mild relief settled in as the older soldier continued the path.
“just some animal, m’lady.” the older man assured, you nodded as you gently assured your horse to continue the dirt path.
“are you sure?” you asked cautiously. a snort erupted from the younger one as you mildly glared at him.
“little lady is scared.” he teased as the older one chuckled loudly before adding cockily. “we got the swords and arms, m’lady. you’ll be safe.” they payed no attention to you as they continued ahead, engaging in the conversation before.
you shivered again, eyes looking to the side cautiously, that gut feeling in your stomach still there. you didn’t like how nervous you are now, but who wouldn’t fear of something lurking in the woods when night seems to be falling soon, wishing the inn would be near.
rustle. there it was again. your ears picked up the sound of leaves rustling from the sides, your heart thumped against your ribcage as your two soldiers were chatting and laughing out loud now. completely unaware of your discomfort. your brows furrowed for a second as you tried to ignore it, overthinking wasn’t the best option now as you looked up ahead. the trees shading, snow falling from the sides as the gust of wind caressed your cheeks. it felt tense, quiet even, only the sound of your men’s chatter filling the void as you held in your breath. seconds passed, you breathed out until—
the sound of an arrow and a scream erupted.
“lad!?” the older man yanked the reins of his horse as the young soldier’s shoulder was struck by an arrow. your eyes widened as you too had stopped abruptly, making your mare shriek. the young lad yelled as he held the arrow, blood marking the cloth on his shoulder. you held in your breath as the rustle in the bushes grew louder, the older knight shouted at you to stay put as the young lad frantically tried to pry off the arrow. you grimaced, noting as the older man had gone off his horse as the sound of two or three men shouting came in. bandits.
“keep the lady safe!” the older one shouted, wielding out his sword as the young one nodded, grimacing as he threw the bloodied arrow away. you got off your mare, holding her reins as you tried to back away seeing as the older one fended himself as those three bandits started to clash their swords with him. you held your breath, seeing as your two soldiers tried to fend off the scums. the older soldier managed to slice off one, hitting him in the chest, the young one though had trouble swinging his right arm due to the shoulder wound. the archer had a good eye aiming for his weak spots, you stood silent, backing away slowly as you can hear the young soldier struggle as he was repeatedly being clashed. you couldn’t look, knowing well one out of two are wounded, three being in the lead of the fight. you heard it, the sound of flesh being sliced, the blood curling scream of the young soldier.
“fuck!” the older one grunted as the bandits started to swarm on him now, you gasped as you shakily looked to the older soldier as he locked eyes with you, the undoubtedly familiar glint he wasn’t going to survive this and neither can you. in both of your dismay, one bandit seem to notice you as he smirked darkly, stalking towards you hopped on your horse. turning around to see from the back of the road, a few number of bandits on guard. they had this planned.
“run, m’lady. run!” the older soldier shouted after being pushed to the ground. you didn’t think twice, racing your horse into the woods, you huffed hearing as the bandits shouted to chase after you. your mare shrieked as you guided yourself from hitting the trees passing your way. if one thing you were good at, was horseback, you rode into the snowy woods, not turning around as you feared they’d catch up. you almost saw a opening on the other side, leading to another road making your heart skip a beat.
“there’s the pretty lady!” you heard from behind, making your heart thump in fear as you rode faster. the snow was thick, your horse was having trouble guiding itself in the obstacles and you were in the verge of tears.
“she’ll be a pretty ransom. won’t she, boys?” suddenly, your horse shrieked loudly making the both of you stumble upon a log. you yelped, landing on the snow as your horse was struck on the it’s hind leg with the same arrow. you grunted in pain, picking yourself up as your horse ran away making you tremble as you stood up and ran for it. fuck!
“fucking heels.” you gritted your teeth, bunching your dress up to run. you huffed, the tiredness getting to you. the overwhelming heat your body was producing due to the layers you have making it all exhausting to run. tears pooled in your eyes as you couldn’t take it anymore, your knees gave up, legs wobbly underneath the furs and silken dress as you hid yourself behind a large tree. your breaths were uneven, you clamp a hand over your mouth to silence the heavy breathing as you prayed to the old and new gods for safety.
“where’s the fucking bitch? sneaky one, i tell ‘ya.” heavy footsteps were heard, the sound of snow scrunching made you shiver. fear coursing through your head. each step came closer and closer and you had to bolt somehow. you glance frantically, grabbing a large rock, the same crunch of the snow neared your side. you braced yourself, waiting with a cold breath as the shadow loomed over you.
“i think—“ before the bandit could even glance at you, you jabbed the rock between his eyes as he let out a guttural screech of pain as blood drip down his face from the impact. you drop the rock, running to the other side yet was stopped as a hand harshly grabbed your arm turning you around as you were caged between the body of one man. a dagger pointed directly up your throat, you froze, your breaths labored as the two men laughed as the other nursed his injured forehead and nose.
“fucking whore broke my nose!” he roared.
“let me go!” you yelled, wiggling in the grasp. sobbing as you were defenseless with no other weapon. the man held the blade tightly up your throat, signaling you to shut up as you cried pathetically.
“caught a posh little lamb. and a beauty as well.” one bandit commented looking at your figure from up and down. you gulped, a uneasy feeling in your stomach.
you begged. “please, i have coin. if you want—“
“say your daddy might pay for you? or we can sell you into a whorehouse with that face of yours or we could keep ‘ya.” the man laughed as you shook your head, lips trembling, tears staining your cheeks as you pleaded.
“p-please.” you sobbed, the other man’s grasp around making you want to puke. you’ll die, here and now. or even worse what ever they can think to do to you.
“take her to the wagon.” the man commanded the one holding you. your eyes widened as you yelled for them to stop as they started moving.
“let me go!” you shouted furiously. the man behind you glared as he forcefully tried to carry you.
“shut up—“
“what’s going on here?” another voice interrupted as all heads turned. your breath seized, a surge of hope erupted in your veins as you looked up to see the familiar black armor of a winterfell soldier. your eyes were desperate, the young soldier seemed to observe the situation first as he met your eyes. big brown eyes laced with suspicion stared at you as you struggled in the death grip. something clicked in his gaze. your lips trembled as you wanted to shout but knowing the man behind you would cut your throat if you ever did.
“nothing at all. why don’t you fuck off, eh?” the bandit scoffed as the young winterfell soldier momentarily held your gaze before turning to the man. hand resting upon his sword.
“seems like there’s something. let the lady go.” he commanded, gesturing to you. “i can pay you lots and fuck off as well, ey? let the lady go.” his voice dropped, noting he was serious.
the bandits laughed as their leader shake his head. fishing out a dagger as he grinned widely towards the young soldier. “you’re just some winterfell foot soldier, might as well cut you up and be with it.”
“please.” you uttered weakly to the soldier. he nodded, as the two bandits started rounding up on him. you closed your eyes, not wanting to see it. your two soldiers were dead just by those men, what more of a young soldier? you can hear the clashes, tears drip down your cheeks as the man behind you gripped you tighter, a blood curling scream echoed the snowy forest and you grimaced hearing the sound of flesh being ripped.
“fuck me. h-he’s killed them!” the man behind you uttered nervously. confused, you looked up, seeing the winterfell soldier drove the tip of his sword to the neck of the kneeling bandit. blood coating his sword, no trace of any blood. the other one was laying on the snow, face front, crimson painting the white ground as you let out a sigh of relief. you looked to the young soldier as he pulled his sword out to stalk towards you and the remaining bandit, clear intent to slash the man behind you. the harsh grip lessened as you managed to free yourself from the grasp of the man before the he came sprinting away with trembling curses. going back into the other part of the woods, you huffed, watching him cowardly run off, your attention now to the rip of your stupid dress.
“this damn dress!” you annoyingly sighed, holding yourself upon the bark of the tree, knees almost giving out as you tried to stand still but you wobbled, feeling the aftermath when you had fallen off your mare and the fatigue.
“are you alright, m’lady?” the voice of the winterfell soldier made you turn around as he worriedly checked on you. you blushed as you were met with these gorgeous brown eyes as he asked again. “can you walk?”
you dumbly stared upon him, the adrenaline still coursing in your veins as you licked your chapped lips. embarrassed at most parts but grateful he had saved you. he was handsome, you noted, cheeks flushed red, doe eyes laced with worrisome, broad nose and defined jaw, brown curls you could see from the helm he was wearing. a stature of a man who trained everyday, tall and well-built even if he was in armor. a handsome soldier. you realized the minor silence as you stuttered out, glowing knowing you had just found the man who saved you attractive.
“i-i’m alright. just tired of r-running.” you weakly said, still scared what just happened to you. your horse was gone and here you are, blushing at a mere winterfell soldier. “and thank you so much for saving me...?”
“a-ah, koner, m’lady.” he bowed as he smiled at you. your stomach churn with that fluttery feeling. “i was nearby and saw a white mare by the road. is it perhaps yours?”
“thank you, koner.” you smiled using his name and nodded. “and yes, it is. is she…?”
“injured, but i’ve got her. bloody arrow on her leg, i pulled it out and patched her up.” he chuckled awkwardly. you nodded shyly as you tried to take a step forward yet stumbled a bit as your vision went a bit blurry. you shivered as suddenly a big warmth envelop your body, an arm wrapped around your back as you stuttered out an apology for being clumsy. you looked upon koner who was still had a worried expression plastered across his face. how cute.
“i-i apologize. i’m not used to this.” you trembled as koner helped you stay upright. your hands on his plated chest to keep you steady. normally, you never had been this close to a man before, let alone a soldier but something about his gentle grip around you made your heart thump faster than ever but the voice inside your head said otherwise. this is wrong.
“it’s no worries. let me help you.” he whispered, the closeness overwhelming your senses as his hand squeezed the side of your waist, bundle of nerves tickling you there. “can i?”
you stammered. “i— yes. you can, o-oh!”
your eyes widened as you were hoisted up in his arms. both of his strong arms carrying you like a princess. your face went warm, your gloved hands encircled his neck as koner didn’t budge a bit making you feel rather worried if you were too heavy for him.
“you could’ve just help me walk there.” you muttered shyly as he walked the two of you up the trees, back to the other road. koner let out a chuckle as he shook his head. never in his life did he get to a carry a pretty lady in his arms but now, he might have hit jackpot for carrying a pretty noble lady this day. he had been riding nearby, bored out of his wits as to why he gotten too far. the woods were fairly quiet in this part as he had always ridden through here since he was a lad. yet the white mare running out of nowhere made him curious seeing it out of the blue. and the muffled screams of your pleas done it for him. you were lucky, if he weren’t there then things would’ve gotten worser.
and gods, you were beautiful. he recognizes you fairly, he knows you’re from a minor house close ties with house stark, he doesn’t remember much but he surely remembers seeing you and sansa back in the days when you were still little ladies and him, helping his mother in the kitchen while carrying a sack of potatoes. and now, a fluttery feeling arose in his chest seeing you slyly nuzzle yourself in his chest, the warmth he was emitting too comfortable for you not to bask in.
“your knees gave out and you’re struggling to walk with your heavy dress. this is fine, m’lady.” he commented as you glared at him. the shyness still in you as you looked away. koner hid a smile, navigating out from the trees to now an open snowy dirt road wherein your mare was waiting patiently alongside a black horse, his you assumed.
“i think i can walk n-now. thank you again, koner.” you stuttered, the cold still bothering you. he shook his head again, noticing how shyly stubborn you are.
“nonsense. you’ll be riding with me on my steed, m’lady. your horse is injured and i can’t have you navigating on your own.” he declared, setting you down in front of his horse. you couldn’t say anything else other than be grateful he was helping you. you nodded as he helped you up his horse. hands grasping the side of your waists so gentle, you couldn’t help but feel flustered again. you sat perfectly on the saddle, adjusting yourself as you watch him tend to your mare. making sure she’ll follow the both of you.
“you’re a winterfell soldier? are you perhaps riding back to winterfell? ” you asked as he finally seated himself behind you.
“sworn to house stark, m’lady. and yes, i am.” he replied as he leaned forward to grab the reins. you felt fluttery again, his plated chest brushing against your back and the heat of his gentle breath brushing against your ear as he pulled back, making you gulp.
“you have my biggest thanks, koner.” you said with much gratitude.
“just being a good soldier, m’lady.” he chuckled behind you. you could feel him pull the reins as his horse started walking to the direction ahead. you sighed blissfully, feeling worn out and tired. you hadn’t planned running into the fucking woods with bandits chasing you and a handsome soldier coming into your rescue, it’d be one hell of a tale you could tell sansa about. your father on the other hand might scream his head off telling you he was right to give you a carriage ride.
“if i may ask, m’lady. what were you doing in the woods?” koner grunted from behind. you stiffened, shrugging.
“ambushed while riding to winterfell. i hadn’t expected bandits in this side of the road. my two men were dead already and i just ran for it.” you explained, letting out a shaky sigh.
koner blinked. “to winterfell you were heading?”
“i’m just visiting.” you smiled, looking back at him. “i promised your queen to visit her once in a while. i haven’t been there since forever.” you sadly added, koner seemed to grasp your meaning. he nodded, eyes focusing on the road.
“and you?” you boldly asked, eyeing him. “what are you doing here? outside of winterfell?”
“what’s there to know for a mere soldier, m’lady?” he chuckled.
“plenty.” you grinned, your back brushing against his chest. “soldiers have interesting tales to tell and stories to spew. other than battle or wars or such.”
“i’m afraid i lack those qualities.” he countered as you shook your head.
“there’s no harm to tell me who you are, koner.” you assured. “out here, i’m not a lady of my house for once.” you added shyly, it was good to ride alone without the same old conversation you’d hear from your family’s lips. the reminder of duty, the etiquette and all other shit you were raised to do. all complete bullshit.
“you are still a lady to me.” he softly said, looking at you as he gave in. “i got tired of guard duty, wanted to ride outside of the walls for once. and maybe save some pretty lady from bandits.”
pretty. your cheeks warmth as you looked back to the road as you muttered at his tease. “you expected so?”
“my expectations were satisfied to say, m’lady.” he whispered, tone lower than he intended. every step of the horse had you two gently brushing against each other, koner seemed to enjoy the shyness you radiated as he held back a smile.
“please.” you leaned back a bit as you met his eyes again with a fluttery heart, wanting him to use your name than just some title. “y-y/n will do just fine.”
he blinked, looking at your eyes then to your slightly ajar lips. a little pouty and wet, he gulped, staring at them. blood rushed through his veins then down to his trousers as he blushed at the obscure thought. it was such a danger how close you are to him when he can smell the scented fragrant oils you wore were making him dizzy. all innocent, pure, is what he can describe the look on your face and he felt ashamed the way he was thinking about you now.
he yearned yet reality reminded him, what would a lady like you be with a man like him? a young soldier, who grew up in a barn, knowing nothing to please a woman or even court a woman like you. it’s forbidden, he reminded himself as he ignored the thump of his heart and the uneasiness down his trousers.
“then lady y/n it is.” he teased, snapping out of his thoughts as you frowned at him cutely.
“i suppose that’ll work.” you mumbled at him as he let out a small laugh. half of the ride consisted mostly of your conversation with koner. you liked him, the way he just seemingly comforted you. talks that held no restraints, no lies or deceits. it felt oddly good how you seemed to slowly know him, he got comfortable telling he grew up in winterfell for most of his life. his mother was a cook serving under house stark and his father was a soldier as well. he had siblings, all of them still young and he was the oldest, helping his family whatever he can do. and you, spewing some stories about your time with your own family.
“night’s nearing.” he gazed upon the horizon, the snow still falling from the sky. as he huffed out, a smoke clouding his face. you seem to glimpse a warm light nearing, craning your neck to see it clearly.
“that should be an tavern.” you pointed.
“if we continue to winterfell now, i don’t think it’ll be safe to go against a snowstorm.” he says, seeing as the clouds form above. “we’ll settle by the inn?” he nods towards the warming light amidst the snow. the sound of men laughing faint in the distance.
“that’s for the best, we can ride by morning.” you agreed as he directed the horses to there. the wind getting stronger and the coldness of the nearing night making you shiver. you drap your fur cloak tighter against your body, subtle warmth koner was emitting helping a bit as you can hear the loud chorus of men laughing and talking.
“seems like a merry night.” he chuckled as he stopped the horse, getting off as you patiently waited for him to guide your injured mare to one of the inn’s stable boys who gladly took her in. the inn was big, must have been a spot for frequent travelers. koner turned his attention to you, grasping your waist again as he helped you get off the horse.
“easy, love.” he muttered, standing in front of him. you thanked him as he guided you to the tavern’s door. you were met with the inn’s warmth, the heat of the lit fireplace setting a cozy ambiance as several men and women were drinking inside. koner stood beside you as his hand brushed against your back, guiding you two in a vacant seat. you pried off your cloak, setting the fur beside you as koner sat in front, his helmet placed neatly on the table. his set of dark locks were displayed as you glanced at him noticing the way he was observing the busy tavern.
“you two together?” a cheery voice interrupted the silence as you looked up to see a bar maiden.
“ah, yes. any rooms left for the lady?” he asked, gesturing to you.
“got one more room vacant, lad.”
“no other rooms for him?” you raised a brow as koner flushed embarrassed you were going to pay a room for him.
“i’ll be sleeping at the stables—“
“nonsense. let me repay you.” you urged, fishing out the pocket of coins in your cloak. koner was about to protest but you shushed him with a solemn look. “it’s the least i can do.”
“thank you.” koner nodded, his chest fluttered at your kindness as he looked away. feeling flustered as the woman in front of you smiled.
“i’m afraid we’re almost booked full, m’lady. as i said, i got one room vacant left.” the bar maiden offered. “but there’s no harm in sharing, you two are together, right?” your eyes widened slightly as the woman smiled at the two of you. koner seemed awkward knowing what the lady is truly implying.
“we’re not—“ you blushed yet held yourself back. “the room is fine. i-i suppose that’ll do.” you stammered as the bar maiden nodded as you handed her the coin pouch. “and a bath please. for both of us. and whatever stew you have and your finest ale.”
“yes, m’lady.” the woman scurried off, leaving a trail of awkwardness behind as you looked over to koner. you cleared your throat, the loud thump of your heart not stopping as he let out a chuckle.
“have you been here before?” you broke the awkwardness, glancing at the whole tavern. different faces of soldiers, travelers and even a few drunks roamed it.
“a few times.” koner leaned back, getting comfortable. “been here to get drunk.”
“this far from winterfell to get drunk?” you laughed.
“they got the best ale.” he shrugged, smiling. “and the best place to pass out drunk.”
“you men and your drinking.” you shook your head, a smile still on your lips as you removed your gloves. you sighed blissfully, the day getting to you.
koner grinned. “it’s a great way to pass time. to drink and wake up feeling fucked while still young. father’s always getting yelled at for getting drunk so i’m savoring the time i don’t become like him.”
“you don’t have a woman? or anyone?” you asked with faint disbelief and relief at the same time. he was attractive, surely he had someone.
he snorted. “i don’t. and i haven’t found one yet.” he claimed, keeping it vague knowing no one really batted an eye to him. at least that’s what he believes.
“i find that hard to believe.” you confessed as his cheeks turned a faint shade of red.
“really?” he squinted at you, crossing his arms to hear your explanation. he felt smug all of the sudden, he could see it, the subtle glow behind your eyes as you blushed at him. you were so obvious it was cute to witness.
“yes. y-you have the looks and you’re a gentleman, who wouldn’t?” i would. koner’s grin went wider as you looked away from his eyes, he smirked, liking the way you suddenly went back to being shy. he bit his lip, a sudden pride overwhelming him, he wasn’t sure, you were a lady from a noble house. you must be someone’s wife or what.
“and you, m’lady? are you wedded?” he asked as you met his eyes again. you shook your head, the idea of marriage still a thorn to you. you could faintly hear your mother’s nagging words that a woman’s job was to be a wife.
“no. i’m not. thankfully.” you joked as something clicked on koner’s expression. “father always wanted me to be wedded quickly. he said i have to find the right one. or they would.”
“and you haven’t been with any man?” he boldly asked, looking from your eyes to your lips. a sudden heat he felt as you sat still staring at him. usually, he knew ladies unwedded like you were prohibited to bed a man or anyone, unless you are married and to be only consummated at your wedding night. but you looked the type to listen to that idiotic rule. he mindlessly thought about it, just soft and innocent, those lips he guessed weren’t kissed just yet. roaming questions circled his mind, all thinking if you even ever had been with someone.
“yes.” you whispered softly, suddenly feeling on edge at the lack of experience you have. “is that bad?”
well, fuck. “not at all, m’lady. it’s good to be finding the right one like your father said.” he gulped a large lump in his throat. pupils dilated, you were struck with silence as you breathed out, fiddling the exterior of your dress underneath the table as you nodded.
“but do you?”
koner’s eyes trailed to yours, confused a bit at your question. “do i what?”
“do you b-believe i’ll find the right one now?” you held your gaze.
“in a tavern filled with drunkards and filthy men?” he laughed. “you should be finding ‘em in some posh place. like a fucking feast or ball.”
“i think not all in this tavern are drunkards i’d be searching for, koner.” you giggled, looking around to see he was correct. he sat quiet, his mind gearing as he processed your words as a stutter escaped his lips, the tips of his ears red. it couldn’t be—
“m’lady, the room’s ready. i’ve brought up a hot bath and gave you two our finest ale and stew.” the same lady came back with a grin. you thanked her, standing up from your seat as you turned to koner who put on a small smile for the woman yet shyly looked to you.
“i’ll stay here for a while.” koner smiled as you nodded yet felt a little disappointed he wasn’t coming with you up the room. with one final look, you were guided by the bar maiden as koner watched afar to see your figure go up the stairs. he sighed to himself, he felt giddy all of the sudden. like a young boy again with a massive crush and a raging erection hidden underneath his trousers. you were too soft, and so oblivious what you were doing, the way your eyes turned doe at the moment, an ambrosia he could not explain. a dangerous one.
shit. he needed ale. or something stronger, just to clear his head out. standing up, he stalks over to the bar, fishing a coin out as the bartender nodded at him.
“one pint.” he muttered, placing the coin in front of the old man.
“your woman, lad?” the man asked, placing the ale in front him, gesturing about you as koner took a sip as he shrugged.
“nah. just saved her from bandits.” he replied, the sweet ale covering his taste buds, still the thought of you running in his mind.
the man scoffed. “well, fuck me. you sure ‘s not your woman? or are my shitty eyes deceiving me?”
“what the fuck do you mean?” koner grunted, leaning against the bar as the old man smirked at him.
“all i’m saying, boy, is that if it ain’t your woman yet then you best be quick to swoo her, ey? took years behind the bar to not see it and not every soldier gets to fuck a lady.”
“she’s not just some fucking whore, old man.” koner glared at him as the bartender laughed.
“whatever you say. but those eyes of hers tells me otherwise.” the man shook his head. cleaning the space in front of him with a cloth. koner gulped his ale, an uneasiness from the man’s words, realizing he was contemplating. no. he couldn’t and he shouldn’t, you’re a lady he saved and by the seven gods, you barely knew him. and he barely knew you. you were just this pretty girl, too pretty for him. but that made it all so exciting for him. he knows, he surely knows there was something else between the two of you.
fuck it. he thinks, the last drops of ale he gulped as he slammed the wooden pint down with a thud. a tingly sensation surged through his veins, the strain in his pants overwhelming as a boost courage bloomed in his chest. he wiped his lips, glancing up to the stairs as he finally made the decision to follow you up. hoping this wouldn’t go bad.
“there you are, lad!” the same bar maiden met him by the top of the stairs. she was holding a bucket as she patted his shoulder with much glee. “room’s ready, it’s down the hallway! i say, your lady isn’t looking good right now. probably tired. best check up on her though.”
“is she ill?” koner questioned, suddenly worried. the bar maiden shrugged, cheekily passing by him as koner was left to wonder worriedly about you as he stalked over to the room.
•••
you leaned your head back on the wooden tub. the warm water kissed your tired skin as you sighed blissfully. the room was fairly big enough, the bed was fine and clean. you liked it, it felt more cozier than ever as the night settled in, the dim lights of the candles illuminating the dark room making it all warm. the floral notes hit your nose as you breathed in slowly. the bath wasn’t necessarily clearing your frantic mind, though it helped you relax a bit as you felt your body feel all tingly again at the thought of koner.
he’s a stranger. you repeated in your mind, knowing well the beat of your heart was saying otherwise. and the sensation below another embarrassing thing you felt. practically you were gawking at him every chance you get. you pursed your lip, a nagging feeling you felt as you couldn’t help yourself yearn for him. you’ve heard some stories from maids or even noble ladies about their nights with men. scandalous to say but your curiosity was at the best. was he like them?
you blushed furiously, it felt like your head was about to explode at the heat of your cheeks accompanied with the warm water. i’m just tired, you mercifully thought to yourself, yet your thighs rubbed together unconsciously, expecting, waiting for him to come up this instant. you know those subtle looks, witnessing the time sansa had been looking at joffrey back then. you were no stranger to it, you just didn’t have the courage now to act upon it without feeling guilty. you grumbled, annoyed, the itch fluttering in your stomach a irk you cannot stop. dammit. the sudden creak of the door gathering your attention quickly as your eyes widen before you could ask who it is.
“the lady told me you weren’t feeling well, oh—“ koner paused his steps getting in the room. he was met with another one of his foolery to not knock first, the redness in his cheeks glowed, not just from the alcohol as he stared at your bewildered expression. you, still in the tub, naked, he stammered as he felt himself feel a bit dizzy. either from the ale or his running emotions. maybe both.
you tried to cover yourself as he looked away. you suddenly wanted to laugh seeing him all so shy as you called him out. “koner. i-i’m alright?” you let out a breathy laugh.
“i-i apologize, m’lady. i should head back out—“
“n-no!” you stopped him, turning your body to face him, hiding slyly behind the tub. “i’m done with my bath, j-just wait for me on the bed. this room is yours as is mine, make yourself comfortable.” you reminded him.
“i— of course. thank you.” he nodded, still looking away from you as he set his helm on the table and sat awkwardly on the bed. you stood up, water splashing down. your body dripped wet as you carefully walked towards where the white dress gown was, a courtesy from the woman earlier telling you sleeping in your silken dress was uncomfortable to be in. koner nervously pried his gloves off and the rest of his sturdy armor. his black cloak was folded perfectly as he didn’t want to turn around yet knowing well he caught a glimpse of you naked. it made his brain chummy, the tension in his trousers a mad mess as he looked down to see a tent forming.
“i-i’m done. you can look.” oh, gods. he wanted to punch himself for reeling in at the softness of your tone. you were oblivious to see his fiddles as he stood up from the bed. you were met with the sight of him in his trousers and a cotton tunic on. your eyes greedily took in the exposed pale skin of his neck and collarbone, his arms flexed a bit as your mouth felt dry as you composed yourself. you smiled at him as he smiled back.
“the stew and ale is on the table. help yourself.” you added as he stood before you, the shyness suddenly creeping in again. “a-and i can call the nice lady for your bath, if you’d like—“
“i appreciate it, m’lady. you’ve done enough.” he sincerely said, holding himself back to kiss you right here and now.
you smiled sweetly, still not glancing up to his eyes. “it’s no problem. i owe you for saving my life.” you declared. “a-and like i said, my name will do just fine, koner.”
koner didn’t seem to listen as he was too captivated by your beauty. you looked good, too good in that nightgown. and you smelled divine, like flowers in the summer. the heavy scent flooding his nostrils, making him breathe slowly, trying to compose himself, wanting still to be a gentleman. you suddenly felt nervous, you looked upon him, he was quiet, yet the look on his face darken as you wanted his attention.
•••
“k-koner?”
“you’re very pretty.” he breathed out, finally the courage in him arising. confused if it was the alcohol in his system or that he’s just idiotically set on to woo you, a noble lady he saved from the woods. you were stunned, the sudden compliment making you shy away. the thump of your heart racing again. “i mean it.”
“y-you’ve said that countless times, koner.”
“and i won’t stop saying it.” he proclaimed, eyes shifting to your lips again. “you’re beautiful. too beautiful in this dress—”
“stop it.” your cheeks heated as you wanted to hide your face. “s-stop it with that.”
“have i upset you?” koner suddenly asked, stepping forward. the distance between you two minimal, like a few moments ago, on horseback. your back brushing against his chest.
“n-no, it’s not that.” you gazed upon him, feeling your stomach do flips again. “there’s so much you’re doing, i can’t help but f-feel…”
“feel?” koner urged, waiting impatiently as he stared down on your lips. desperate he is as you are as well. the fan of his breath tickled your nose, was this it? this moment all women were gossiping for, that heat in their core, that sudden addicting yearn you swore you never would feel. but here he was, standing in front of you, waiting respectfully as you couldn’t say it making him feel like he was too pushy now. remembering his place as a soldier.
“i-i apologize.” koner muttered, feeling rejected, no other response was made but you panicked, grabbing him the collar of his tunic to pull him in to lock your lips. the only thing you could do than spew words how much you want him.
koner froze, soft lips envelop his. the same lips he’d been pinning on, he could almost laugh at himself yet he reciprocated it with fervor he’d been holding in. you were adorable, moaning softly on his mouth, inexperienced what to do other than enjoy it. you grasp his tunic, eyes shut closed as his hands grasped your waist. circling half moons, teasing you as you gasped, he smirked, sliding his tongue in your mouth. messy, wet, warm in the inside, you feel so dizzy you were whining in his mouth as koner felt cocky you were writhing in his touch.
“you aren’t good at hiding your emotions, m’lady.” he mumbled against your lips, smirking. you pouted, making him laugh. “all that staring, and you think i wouldn’t know?”
“s-says the man who’s been hiding what’s underneath his trousers.” you countered, making you grin as his eyes widened. he pressed himself against you, you could feel him, clothed clock grinding itself on your stomach. he groaned, the friction a relief as he kissed you again, guiding your body to the bed as he towered before you.
his lips trailed down to your jaw, nipping each skin his lips could brush against as he peppered kisses on your neck. you exhaled, tangling your hands in the small ruffles of his curly hair, your thighs rubbed against each other, the known stickiness you felt dampening. this felt right, it felt good, so this is what the maids felt? you didn’t know but you knew the main part was man’s cock, you bit your lip, you already felt him. and he felt big.
“can i take this off?” he muttered against your neck, one hand grasping your dress and the other holding himself up above you. you bit your lip, his fingers teasing the ruffle of the nightgown as you nodded. in one swift movement, your dress was pulled down to your feet as he sat back to toss it on the floor. the cool air hit your skin, making you shiver, still a bit damp from your bath. you felt rather shy as you watch him gawk, muttering curses to himself as you giggled.
gods, he was about to burst seeing you bare and free before him. he crawled back to you, continuing his trail of kisses until one of your breasts were on his lips as he sucked the erect nipple making you squeal as he smirked. “such a beauty.”
he nipped, sucked, fondled the other one with his large hand. you let out a tiny moan, watching him suck on your breasts, he turned to the other one, eyeing you as he sucked again. harsher this time as you keened at it. liking the way his tongue lapped against your areola, this new sensation a wonder for you. koner loved it, love the way your tits felt, so plump and soft in his hold. but as much as he liked it, he trailed down, kissing the belly of your stomach as he shifted himself to be seated again. liking the way you were already trying to relieve tension between your legs.
“it feels f-funny down there.” you whined, your thighs clamped together, he could see your pussy on display as he licked his lips.
“what feels funny, my love?” he asked, hands grasping your thighs to pry you open. my love. your heart flutters uncontrollably, you whimpered, your hand gliding down to point at your weeping cunt.
“i-i don’t know what to do with this, koner. please…” you begged, the heat of your cunt overwhelming since the moment you met him. you really didn’t know what to do or how to relieve it.
“shh.” he shushed you as he gently parted your legs open. “i-i’ll help you. i’ll make it feel better and you’ll feel so good when i’m done with you.” he promised, you nodded frantically, relaxing a bit as you bended your knees. koner smirked, diving down to take a closer look at your unsoiled virgin cunt.
“such a pretty cunt, ey?” he whispered, kissing your thigh as you whimpered his name again.
“all for me.” he growled, the scent of your wetness making him hungry. he lapped right away, he wasn’t sure if he was doing this right but he just went with the flow, following his mind on what to do. he suckled on your bean, earning a grind on his face as he immediately suckled again as you gasped. grasping his hair tight as koner continued to brutally suck your clit.
“k-koner!” you moaned out as he turned his tongue to your opening. wetness dripping as he lapped it. licking up as he tongue-fucked you, the taste of your virgin pussy sweet and tart, so addicting, wanting more than to spend time eating your cunt out if he had the chance. he was welcomed with the plush of your thighs clamping on his face, muffling your whimpers and moans. felt like he was sent to the skies, back to the gods, died peacefully with pussy in his mouth.
“ ‘s too much!” you gasped out as he ignored you, sucking harshly, licking ferociously as his nose nudged your clit. you felt a knot forming deep within your core, like something tight was about to explode. you felt confused, scared even to this new feeling as you desperately tried to tell koner you felt like something was coming out of you. though it felt good, so good that your hips mindlessly grind against his handsome face.
“by the gods—“ you mewled, chasing that high as your orgasm struck you hard. koner lapped it up, feeling your core tighten as smothered his lips on your dripping cunt. your essence dripping down his chin. you fell limp, legs trembling a bit, koner manage to get his face off your cunt as he licked his lips. suddenly more tipsy than ever. the best he had ever tasted than the sweet ale he had drunk. heaven on his lips. he didn’t deserve this. you hazily looked up, seeing his mouth wet with your juices, a feral look on his face that had your heart jump out of your chest.
“feel better, my love?” he asked, panting slightly, wiping his mouth as you nodded gratefully. you beckoned him, wanting him to be near you, touching you again.
“take off your t-tunic, please.” you pleaded as he nodded, shrugging off the garment to the side. you admired him, heat coiling again in your core, taking in the sight of him shirtless. pale skin, lean stomach, a couple of battle scars there but still utterly beautiful to see. he was fit, his arms were a bit bulky, v-line sharp and oh, his cock was screaming to get out of his wool trousers.
“w-what about you?” you whispered as you glanced down to the bulge. he shuddered suddenly, embarrassed as he hovered above you to peck your lips. nose brushing against yours, smile evident as you were too.
“i’m alright.” he kissed the apple of your cheek. you smiled at him yet shook your head, still a bit in a stupor, you captured his lips again, this time a bit confident as you wrapped your legs around his tiny waist. you wanted him, all of him, this instant. you had enough of imagining, even if you just met him a while ago. shame was out of your head as your hands glided down his chest, to the hem of his wool trousers, ready to pull it down. yet koner gasped as your tiny hands tried to push it down making him flush furiously. his cock still hard.
“m-m’lady, are you sure?” he stared in your eyes, brown eyes dilated as he had to make sure if you wanted this. once you bed him, it’ll be over if you were to be wedded, you were young, a young noble lady that was still pure in your family’s eyes. now only to be spoiled by some foot soldier. he was panicking, worried for you and this moment that would damage your own being. you had to think carefully. even though it’ll hurt him a bit. but he wanted you so badly.
“koner.” you stared at him dumbly, seeing his worried expression. suddenly the racing thoughts of your own duty in your mind, your family. you were giving away one important asset, your own virginity, but…
damn them all.
“n-no. i want this. i want y-you. and i am certain i want you.” you strongly declared, koner’s expression seem to soften at your words. you want him? by the gods, him? he let out a airy chuckle, the room suddenly too warm as he kissed you again, this time slow and passionate as he wanted this to be special.
“what did i do to have you, m’lady?” he murmured, hands touching your soft skin again. you hummed, smiling against his lips, he was so cute.
“for one, saving me from bandits.” you giggled as he rolled his eyes, pressing his hips now on your bare cunt. his clothed erection grinding carefully, you let out a tiny moan as you felt him. desperate to feel him inside. koner was a patient man, yet this time patience wasn’t in him as he pulled himself off for a moment to fumble with trousers.
“aye.” he agreed as he smirked. “a pretty damsel in distress, ey?”
“and saved by a handsome soldier, yes, i’d say this is one good tale to t-tell.” you grinned as he tossed away the piece of fabric, revealing himself. your eyes trained down to his bare cock. you blushed, studying it, the tip was flushed red as it stood proud and large before you. was this your doing? you blushed again, knowing nothing how to please that.
“c’mere, m’lady.” he beckoned as you pouted at him at the title.
“p-please, just my name.” you pleaded, making eyes at him. he growled, grabbing your legs as you squealed at his manhandling. your legs were open again as he positioned himself between them. you let out a exhale, feeling the tip of his fat cock brush against your wet clit making you shiver with the thought of it inside of you. the act felt intimate somehow, how close he is to you, hovering above you with sweat beading his forehead. a look on his face with lust and adoration mixed in.
“y/n.” he breathed out, resting his forehead against yours, breaths mingling, hearts thumping at the same time, the candles burning amidst the vehement stare both of you would not want to look away from each other’s eyes. your name was stars above the night sky in his voice, you felt yourself melting beneath him, each syllable he had pronounce like a sweet tune you listened that made you want to hear it again and again. maybe even forever.
“i-i want you.” you repeated as you cupped his rosy cheeks, wanting him to stick that in his mind if he ever backs down again. koner felt the familiar fluttery feeling again as he kissed your palm, understanding your words clearly as he aligned himself now.
“slow and steady. it’ll h-hurt for a bit, that’s what i hear them say, bit scary. we can stop if it’s too much, just say the word.” he carefully reminded you.
“all the w-way in?” you gaped as he bashfully nodded pecking your lips, the idea of something inside you so unusual. yet all of that nerve-wracking thoughts were dispelled as he coated the tip of his cock with your slick. you mewled, liking it as he grasped himself fully to push himself inside of you.
“y-y/n. gods, you feel so good.” he groaned, your walls clamped around the head of his leaking dick, he stilled himself, feeling like he was about to burst but he shouldn’t. putting a babe inside of you was a very dangerous thing, though it made his cock harder of the thought of you round and plump with his seed. all pretty, his little pretty wife.
“feels weird.” you whispered as you looked down to where you two were joined as he slowly pushed himself in further. the burn of the stretch was there, you hissed, your walls clenching as he rubbed circles on your waist to help you ease it. so far, it felt snug but a good snug when you felt him twitch. koner let out a strangled moan as he finally sheathed himself in, bottoming in as he shifted his weight on his knees. pulling your legs up to his waist as you were panting at the sudden wave of pleasure from his movements.
he still held in his gaze in your eyes as you held it as well, never breaking. a few moments of breathing and skin flushing with heat had you nodding your head for him to finally move. he kissed you again, sloppily desperate as he rocked his hips making you wrap your arms around his back. you held on as he started grinding in, his cock rubbing your wet cavern as you moaned at it. nudging that spot that made you whimper.
“fucking tight. so tight, y/n.” he praised, your lips too swollen as he nipped the bottom. you keened grinding your hips up for more, too greedy. “ ‘s like you were made for my cock. taking me all in— shit!”
he let out a breathy laugh as he started to thrust firmly. the snap of his hips hard, his balls slapping against your cunt, making this lewd wet sound as his stomach rubbed your swollen clit. you savored it, your name being moaned out as you whined at his cock hitting that spot again. hot flashes of pleasure so good, you didn’t want this to stop.
“is all in there, ey.” one of his large hand splayed over your stomach. knowing his fat cock was plowing in you, feeling a little cocky as you clamped around him again, making him pound a bit harder. “love your little cunt, my love.”
“k-koner!” you gasped as he fucked your pussy faster, the pleasure was too overwhelming as you felt tears stain your eyes at the delicious friction he was giving you. he kissed your skin, nipped and sucked until marks show upon your neck and the flesh of your breasts. claiming you as his, his alone, the one who spoiled you, not giving two shits as well about your family.
he grunted, you mewled, kissing him desperately as you felt the familiar sensation in your stomach, where his cock was hitting you. you lifted your hips as koner felt your walls tighten harsher, gripping his cock as he thrusted in faster than ever. obscene skin slapping filled the room accompanied with your moans of his name and his groans. he twitched, wanting to cum now in your hot womb.
“gonna fill you up nice and tight. g-gonna give you my fucking seed in that virgin cunt of yours.” he dirtily promised as you nodded frantically at the idea of his essence inside you. “i’ll make you mine, ey? gonna knock you up— fucking hells.”
“yes, yes, y-yes. please! want your baby—“ you pleaded kissing his neck. he moaned out, driving himself in and out, pounding in again and again as you tightened, that sweet orgasm striking you hard.
“k-koner— oh!” your eyes rolled back, your hips started as he harshly stilled you with his hands on your waist, fingers digging in your skin as he fucked himself out with your cunt tightening around his cock. he groaned, the sensation of you cumming on his cock the best feeling he has ever felt as you he sheathed himself fully, spurts of his cum painting your walls white.
“fuck me…” he uttered out, stars in his vision as he buried his face in the crook of your neck, inhaling your scent as he slumped against your body. gods, was that the best orgasm he had ever experienced. you panted, caressing his back gently as he too was still breathing heavily. like he had just run a mile.
you felt hot inside, his cock was still snug inside of your pussy and his seed felt sticky as it leaked out of your hole a bit. yet, this post-orgasmic sensation was by far the best, felt dreamy and almost relaxing. you felt him slowly regain himself as he adjusted to be hovering above you again. his eyes were blown-out black, lips pouty and red, cheeks rosy and his curls stuck on his forehead. you smiled at him sweetly, brushing the curls off his sweaty forehead as he kissed you briefly. though a mischievous glint in his eyes said otherwise as he pulled back, smirking.
“we’re not done.” he muttered, you clenched again around him as he groaned out. chuckling darkly as you felt his cock start to harden again. you nodded, pecking his lips with a small smile. wanting more to feel his sticky cum fill you up again as you bravely challenged him.
“again, k-koner.”
•••
“a-ah!” you gripped the sheets, face turned to the side as your ass was up in the air, being pounded furiously by the same sweet man behind you. you moaned again, feeling so stuffed with his seed, still he was fucking you again and again.
“gonna cum, y/n.” he grunted, balls slapping against your cunt as his cum drip down your thighs as he eyed it greedily. gripping your ass tight as you tiredly let him fuck you, this position a lot pleasurable as you can feel all of him.
“fill me up, please.” you begged, your cheeks hot and heavy as you braced yourself at his rutting, the feeling so good.
“o-one more, my love. give me one more.” he whispered against your ear as he pressed his chest against your back, kissing your neck as his hand started to rub your clit. you whined, he thrusted again and again as you moaned out his name. hips stuttering, walls clenching, him filling you up with his cum as he groaned out, slumping forward. sweat beaded both of your bodies as he laid down beside you, pulling you to his sweaty chest as your cunt gushed out his milky cum. so perfect.
a comforting silence transpired as you listened to the beat of his heart. koner rubbed your lower back, fingers gliding on your sweaty skin making you shudder. you turned your head up to meet his eyes, seeing him so blissed out and rosy. you grinned, knowing how many times you also made him cum. koner sensed your stare as he looked down, smirking as he pecked your lips and squeezed your bare ass.
“that was w-wonderful.” you manage to blurt out, caressing his chest. shy again even though he had just fucked you so many times and naked in his arms.
“indeed.” he nodded. “they were right though…”
“hm?” you hummed seeing as he let out a airy chuckle.
“my lads told me how fucking was a life-changer. can’t believe i first fucked a beauty like you. a lady.” he shook his head, still in disbelief he had you in his arms. you raised a brow, suddenly blushing as you got the grasp of his words.
“you haven’t as well?” you asked, eyes lighting up as koner nodded.
“you are my first.” he whispered, leaning down to capture your lips in a sweet promising kiss. “and i am to you as well.”
“really?” you laughed.
“it is the truth, my love.” he declared, pulling you closer in his arms as the candles started to flicker off.
“then i am h-honored, koner.” you smiled, feeling giddy as your heart thumped loudly again making you snuggle up against him. “i really like you…” you confessed, feeling a bit drowsy as your eyes started to droop into sleep.
“and i you.” he whispered, kissing the top of your head. he covered your bare bodies with the fur blanket, basking in the wonderful aftermath. he scoffed at himself as you thought about the first time he had met you a while ago, all some coincidence or maybe even fate decided you two were to be bounded together. he glanced sleepily to your warm body, smiling to himself as he felt the sleepiness take him. you two snuggled up against the soft sheets and furs,
After a trying conversation with his partner guard about a beautiful new Lady’s maid, Koner meets the girl and immediately bonds with her over their shared love of dragons.
CW - Female reader, no specific appearance given other than her “beautiful eyes” and the fact that she wears her hair in ‘braids’. Some misogynistic language directed at reader (the words ‘slut’ and ‘whore’) but not by Koner.

Even through his armour, and his North-forged skin, Koner still felt the winter chill in his bones.
It was bleak mid-winter, and he stood guard at the South Gate, waiting for Henk to come and join him from his break. There was a jovial spirit amongst the people of the North - Lady Stark stood at the helm of Winterfell as the Queen in the North while her brother - no, her cousin - lived in Kings Landing as the King Consort of the Dragon Queen.
Koner had never seen a dragon until the battle at the Wall, where he had watched the Stormborn Targaryan take out thousands of wights with one roar from one of her children. He had fallen quite in love with the sight of them, and was sorry to see them leave the North, their dragon-fire lighting up the torches in the turrets as they soared out of Winterfell, carrying the Queen and her new husband on their backs.
His daydreams about the trio of fire-breathing beasts were shaken out of him by the arrival of Henk, who seemed more pleased with himself than usual.
“Guess who I just met.” A challenge, then. It wasn’t unusual for Henk to come back from his break boasting about some higher-up he’d met, once he’d even told Koner he’d met the Lady’s Hound, making a joke about the man not so much clinging to the Queen in the North’s skirts so much as being up them, before another guard gloved him on the back of the head, telling him to not speak of Lady Sansa as such.
And so, Koner did not answer. He didn’t want to give Henk the pleasure.
“Well, if you won’t ask then I’ll tell you.” Here we go. What would it be this time? Maybe he’d actually boast about seeing one of the Starks in person, but then he supposed that Henk would have the foresight to know that Koner would call him out on that sort of lie. “I just met Lady Stark’s newest ladies maid as she was comin’ back from the kitchens.”
Koner raised an eyebrow at this, which Henk took as his allowance to continue with the story.
“She was one of the most prettiest girls I’ve seen in my whole life! The most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. And that's not even the best part!” He wiggled his eyebrows at Koner suggestively. “Don’t you want to hear the best part, eh?” Deep down, Koner knew that he would never shut up until he had finished his story, but he still couldn’t bring himself to answer. The biting cold, alongside Henk’s bragging was starting to give him a headache. “Well, the best part is that she’s one of the those the Dragon Queen left for Lady Stark, which means that she’s got to be one of those Yunkai whores she thought she’d freed!”
“But I thought the Targaryan Queen did free the city of Yunkai?” Koner said dumbly, speaking for the first time since Henk had left to go on his break, which caused a bellowing laugh to come from the other man.
“Ah, my naive young partner,” Henk replied in a condescending manner, “You can never truly free a whore. Especially not once from Yunkai - you do know they’re trained to fuck from the moment they learn to walk?”
Remind me never to leave any bairns with Henk, thought Koner, a disgusted chill colder than the north wind making its way down his spine.
“What, you’re saying that whores like whoring?” He snickered, but Henk just laughed again.
“You ever been to a whorehouse, son?” He asked, and Koner shook his head.
“My mother would-” He started, but Henk almost immediately interrupted him.
“Oh, fuck that mother of yours, son. She’s not your wife, she should let you go to a whorehouse. One of the sluts there might be able to get that massive stick from up your arse!”
“My mother just doesn’t want me to be riddled with the clap, is all.” Muttered Koner.
At his comment, Henk began to chastise him about his views on brothels, a scolding that Koner very quickly zoned out of. He thought of the dragons, and the large fireplace in the servants hall that he liked to sit and read beside. Although he couldn’t read very well, the books he liked had nice pictures of dragons he liked to look at. With the huge fire roaring beside him, he almost felt like he was next to one of the huge beasts in reality.
“...so that’s why I can bet you if you gave that woman enough money, she’d spread her legs faster than Jon Snow left Winterfell when he got a taste of dragon-cunt.”
“What?” Koner fell back into the conversation at the mention of dragons. “I mean, you shouldn’t talk about the Queen that way, or the King Consort.” Feeling like he risked sounding too simpering, he added: “You never know who might be listening.”
“Ah, true. But what I said about the Yunkai whore remains true.” He grinned maliciously at Koner, who shrugged in on himself, uncomfortable.
“Maybe, maybe not. Who knows if she was even a whore? Maybe she was-”
“She came from Yunkai, she’s definitely a whore.”
There was no arguing with Henk when it came to topics like this. Once, he’d sworn that he’d seen a noblewoman bathing in the hot springs and had taken her maidenhood then and there, which was something absolutely no one believed. The only sex Henk had was with whores, whose virgin innocence was long-gone.
“Whatever you say, Henk.” And so, the two stood in silence until two other soldiers came to take their place at the Southern Gate, and they could return to the warmth of the servants hall.
***
Like he had dreamed of earlier, Koner found himself eating his broth and bread, and reading his book as close to the fire as he possibly could, to get maximum dragon ambience. The book had been given to him by one of the Queen’s soldiers, who he had grown close to while they had been stationed at Winterfell and who shared his adoration for the creatures, even going as far as teaching him how to read some of the letters so he could make sense of some of the descriptions, but he still got a headache in between mixing up his Ds and Bs.
None of the other servants or guards had ever taken an interest, only to laugh at the thought of some low-born bastard trying to read about dragons. Not until that night.
“Is that a dragon on the page of your book?” He looked up to see a vision in a simple green wool dress, with braids that fell down past her shoulders and to her waist, where a bronze belt with a strange insignia held up a leather pouch.
“Uh - yeah.”
“May I see?” She asked, but Koner could only nod, cursing himself for being so tongue-tied in the face of such a beauty. He held up the book to her, as one might hold up a sword to a much-deserving knight. She took the book from him, and as she did her soft hands brushed against his calloused ones, causing a tingle in his fingers that travelled all the way down to his cock. If this was how he reacted to barely touching a woman, he should probably take Henk’s advice lest he pop a boner whilst getting knighted by Lady Stark.
(That was one of the quiet dreams he had, one that he had never told another soul about lest he be made a mockery of.)
“This is a book from the Queen’s library in Mereen - how did you get it?” It wasn’t an accusation - she didn’t even ask him in an accusatory tone, but the way she looked into his eyes made him feel as if he needed to apologise to her, as if she was the person he had stolen it from.
“Uh, one of the Dragon Queen’s soldiers gave it to me.” She raised a well-plucked eyebrow at him, and he suddenly had the feeling he was talking to someone much above his station. “He didn’t tell me he’d stolen it, I had no idea-” He began to apologise, but found himself interrupted by the woman’s laughter.
“I didn’t think it was stolen, Sir. I just didn’t expect a Stark soldier to have such an interest in a beast from so far beyond his lands.” At her words, he began to protest, but she laughed again, silencing him. “But if you are, perhaps you would like to hear my stories about the dragons I saw on a daily basis back when I lived alongside Queen Danerys?”
Koner’s mouth dropped open, and he shut it quickly, hearing in his head his mother’s warnings of him looking like a dead salmon when he did so.
“Ah, I see your incredibly subtle partner has made my presence known to you before I got the chance.” She got a sad look in her beautiful eyes, which he immediately felt the need to take away.
“Uh - sorry - my partner?” Was this the lass Henk had been blabbering on about? Well, he was certainly correct when he had spoken about her eyes. Koner had never had the chance to bathe in the hot springs - his mother liked to keep his bath water cold as the snow surrounding their cabin, so he could grow up to be a strong, North-hardened soldier for the Starks. He liked to imagine that stepping into a hot spring would be akin to gazing into this woman’s eyes for longer than ten seconds at a time. He was stuck, and couldn’t form words for the fear of having to leave her gaze to think of them.
“Yes, your partner. That soldier that guards the South Gate with you. He met me on the way back from the laundry as I was carrying Lady Sansa’s bedlinens.” Her face was somewhat hopeful, perhaps hopeful that Henk had not told him what he had, but resigned in a way that she knew that he had done so.
“What, Henk?” At his name, her face twitched into more of a frown than it had before. Fuck.
“Yes, that one. He has a rather large beard, I noticed.” She sounded self-conscious now, rather than the spirited person he had met to begin with. Henk needs a fucking battering for this.
“Yes, I’ve told him he could grow a nest of birds in that fucking thing.” He offers a smile, and she reciprocates it, if not slightly weaker. But she was smiling, at least. “I can’t actually remember what he said to me after that - I don’t tend to listen to much that cunt talks about - it’s usually bullshit.”
She tilted her head at his words, causing her braids to shift and reveal a sliver of her neck, the sight of it sending thoughts of what his mouth might do to it running through his head, down his spine and to his cock, which twitched again. Fuck, he really needed to visit a whorehouse if this was what happened when he talked to pretty girls.
“You don’t get bored?”
“Not when I have dragons to think of.” He smiled in reassurance at her, and a weight seemed to lift from her shoulders. She sat down in the seat opposite him, and handed him back his book.
“Hmmm, what story could I tell you?” She pondered, and he sat forward on his haunches to listen.
“Tell me about the first time you saw them!” He begged, and so she began.
“Well, I had just been freed. When the Stormborn arrived, I was locked away so my master wouldn’t have to give me up - he thought he, a well-known, powerful slave owner would get away with hiding slaves.”
She stopped, to check if he was still listening, but Koner only nodded for her to carry on.
“He did not - the Dragon Queen saved me and the others from his clutches and that’s when I first saw them - they were walking behind her, almost like hounds do their master. Except instead of having fur, they had scales and huge wings and fangs.
“I was terrified, of course, but my interest betrayed my fear, and I asked if I could touch them. My interest humoured her, and she took me to Mereen with her, and then to King’s Landing, and then she brought me here, to Winterfell.
“She saw how much I enjoyed the snow - where I grew up it’s so hot and there is sand as far as the eye can see. I don’t like sand. It’s coarse, and rough, and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here, the snow is soft and smooth and cold.”
At this, Koner laughed.
“You won’t be saying that when you get frostbite for the first time.”
She shrugged, her lips forming a beautiful pout that Koner desperately wanted to kiss from her face.
“Perhaps. But until then, Winterfell is the most beautiful place I have ever been. Even without dragons. So she let me stay, under the guise of gifting the Queen in the North another Lady’s Maid.” She smiled at him again, a wide smile that nearly knocked him into the fire with how much it made his chest hurt to look at.
“She seems like a very kind lady.”
“She is, Sir.”
“Did you ever get to touch the dragon, then?” He asked, excited again, but she simply laughed at him, and Koner looked up at her with his brown eyes in wonder.
“That is a story for another time, good soldier. I have work to do - I must tend to Lady Stark.” She stood up to go, but before she could, he shot up and grabbed her elbow.
“What is your name, my lady? So I know the name of the woman who told me such a fearsome tale.”
She told him, and he had to repeat it. He had to feel the taste of her name on his tongue, as if it was an expensive sweet he’d been given that he was afraid would be knocked from his mouth cruelly.
“And yours, Sir?”
“Koner, Ma’am. And I am no Ser, just a poor soldier who loves dragons.” He grinned at her, and she gave him another wide smile back, knocking him in the chest again.
“Until we meet again, Koner, the poor soldier.”
***
On his next watch with Henk, he found himself being interrogated by the man who had somehow found out about his conversation with the fair maiden.
“So, did she invite you back to her chambers for a good fucking? Is she truly a Yunkai whore like they say?”
Koner spat on the ground.
“No, she’s a nice girl who told me about the dragons she used to travel with.” He fixed Henk with a glare, which had the older man shrink back. “Don’t go besmirching the poor lass’ name again. She’s not a whore, she’s a good woman.” He would not be telling Henk that his cock felt differently.
Henk only laughed at this, only with less surety than before.
“If I didn’t know better, I’d have thought you were in love with her, Koner.”
Perhaps he was, but that didn’t matter. Men like Koner never ended up married to women like her. No - she’d be married off to some steward and bear beautiful children, and Koner would have to be happy with his left hand, and the stories of the dragons that she left behind with him.
Koner's wife brings up having babies, and Koner absolutely loves the idea of having little mini versions of him and his wife running around the house.💖👶💍
(Also if it's ok...could this tie to your Winter Night's miniseries?💖)
ahh hello !! this is absolutely cute for koner. it can be a part of winter nights hehe. who wouldn’t want to have his babies? 😫
here’s winter nights if y’all haven’t read it yet!!
suggestive themes under the cut
｡･:*˚:✧｡
the prospect of having a family was close tied with you. having now a husband yourself was the key ingredient to your little desire. of course, back then you despised the idea of getting married then having to be literal broodmare for a random lord. but here you are, free from duty, married to the man you love. free to chose— well mostly free to choose in your own home. koner beside you, still sleeping as he hasn’t woke up. the little house you two lived in, somewhere quiet and safe, just a little far from winterfell.
you hummed as the birds chirp from outside. the sun was peeking through the cracks of your room. it was summer in winterfell, lesser snow but still cold. it felt good to know how years after you met him that you thought you’d be somewhere in king’s landing. married to a drunk lord of a noble house, miserable and depressed. that’s what all women in westeros have felt through the course of the years of tradition. all idiotic and bullshit it is.
“you’re awake, my love?” you head shoot up from his chest as koner groggily opened his eyes. you giggled, craning your head up to kiss him. he hummed, liking the morning kiss as your scent filled his nose. gods, was he lucky.
“i am. couldn’t sleep anymore.” you quietly responded, bare body pressing against his as koner grumbled.
“mhm.” he sleepily smiled, voice still raspy and deep. your thighs rubbed against each other as you remembered last night’s rigorous activities. an exercise which you certainly liked everyday.
“rest more, the day’s just starting.” he mumbles as you nodded, still feeling a little groggy as you rested your head against his warm chest. the sound of his heartbeat a gentle tune in your ears. your thoughts wondered, all desires and fantasies you had with him. it was about time you talked to him about this.
“what do you think about children, koner?” you blurted out, kissing his skin as he caressed your back, yawing. you didn’t mind to have children— you knew the cost of it but having a child with him meant something.
“a child, my love?” he questions, a bit dazzled at your sudden thought.
“yes. me and you.” you looked up him, staring at his now opened brown orbs. “born with our blood— a child of ours. wouldn’t that be amazing?” you smiled sweetly as koner’s heart bloomed with love seeing how much affection you have in your eyes.
“yes.” he hummed, kissing you again. “it would be wonderful.” he says with much love. the thoughts of you round and big with his child. doing nothing but to be pampered around, to be cared for knowing how precious you are to be having his heirs. though, for the cost of it, knowing he had more mouths to feed was a concern, but that didn’t mattered. he was officially knighted by queen sansa, knowing his loyalty has been well seen. money shouldn’t matter at the moment. the cottage was big enough for the two of you and he daydreamed of it.
“i can almost imagine you and I.” you added, dreamily sighing. “teaching our son, braiding our daughter’s hair. guiding them, loving them. caressing their wee heads when they’re still little babes. you’d want that?”
“my love.” he sighs, kissing your nose. “anything with you, i’d want. little me’s and you’s. it’s perfect.”
“really?” you smiled as he shuffled to hover above you as he kissed your neck making you giggle. the furs dropping as your bare bodies collided withe each other. koner smiled, the drowsiness long gone as he kissed you again, mumbling it your lips. the thought of his own family warming his heart even more. the chance of witnessing your motherhood fresh in his mind, and the fact that he’ll become a father. it was everything he wished for, now staring longingly in your eyes.
