Thoughts of Jorah

Chapter 5

She landed on top of him with a huff, her mouth was in the crook of his neck and she inhaled his scent.

He smelt amazing despite the fact they had been on a boat for the past few weeks.

He had his arms around her protectively and was staring at the ceiling of the cabin in shock, he was

praying to all the gods that she wouldn't notice the problem forming in his breeches. He finally cleared

his throat, "Are you alright Khalessi?"

She nodded and pushed herself up, leaning on his chest for support. She looked into his eyes and saw

the love he had been repressing and she knew she had to do something.

"I never thanked you Ser."

He had a look of confusion and uncertainty on his face. "Khalessi?"

"I never thanked you for all these years of service and friendship, I think I should do it properly." She

leaned down and pressed her lips to his.

His whole body tensed up and his arms tightened around her. When he didn't respond, she pulled back

to look at his face. He looked angry and hurt mixed together.

"Is something wrong?"

"You don't need to do that." He had his face turned to the side, not looking at her as he spoke. She

could feel his reaction to her against her stomach and wriggled against it. He sucked in a breath through

his clenched teeth and gently pushed her away.

She sat up on the bed and watched him as he stepped away from her and stopped in the middle of the

room looking furious. When he finally spoke it was harsh in a way she wasn't used to from him.

"Is this a game to you? Do you think I feel nothing?" He spat. She recoiled from the acid in his words. All

of her confidence suddenly slipped away.

He stood there watching her, wait for her to say something for her actions. Even now he had a pain in

his chest for having put a look of hurt on her face. She sniffled and pulled her knees up to her chest.

He sighed and ran a hand over his face. "I'm sorry, Khalessi, I didn't mean to."

"I do not think you in capable of feeling…I was trying to see how you felt. It didn't go quite as

planned…I.." She trailed of and put her chin on her knee.

His anger melted and sadness replaced it, she was too young, she didn't understand. "It has been a long

journey and you are not used to being at sea for so long, you know not what you say Child."

Her eyes narrowed and she looked up at him. "Do you think me a child Ser Jorah?"

He came to kneel in front of her. "You are the bravest, strongest, most caring and beautiful woman I

have ever seen, you will make a fine queen…but you don't want someone like me by your side, not like

that." Sadness etched his face and his voice.

She reached out and cupped his cheek. "You are everything I want."
