"I've brought you some wildflowers and some northern pudding today my love" I smiled softly as I sat down next to my husband's grave, placing the wildflowers on top of it

"It has been a year since you've been taken from me Jaime" I began, caressing the flowers he would give to me every time he'd go to Winterfell and came back to our previous home, Casterly Rock

"Many things have changed in a year my love, Sansa being Queen of the North, Jon- Daemon being King of The Six Kingdoms, Bran being Hand of The Queen, The Dragon Queen killed by Wildlings who refused to bend the knee to her, Cersei escaping Daemon and the Kingsguard for her crimes against the crown, Arya travelling west of Westeros, and myself being Sansa's chosen heir to Winterfell even though I'm very much older than her." I laughed and shook my head

"I'm still not used to not having you by my side." I took a shaky breath, tearing up "People at court had advised me to move on from you, remarry and find a suitable lord my age and bear another child" I caressed my stomach, looking up at the sky

"But I can never replace you and our daughter" I sobbed, hugging my knees together "I fake a smile every time they ask me if I'm alright, even though deep down I'm still hurting because of your death." I sniffled, wiping my tears

"Sebastian was arrested by the Kingsguard and was sentenced to death by Daemon, I-I should be happy to have found justice b-but why do I still feel empty and sad inside?" I asked no one as tears kept falling down my face and I curled up and hugged my knees once more

"Sebastian was arrested by the Kingsguard and was sentenced to death by Daemon, I-I should be happy to have found justice b-but why do I still feel empty and sad inside?" I asked no one as tears kept falling down my face and I curled up and hugged...

"I thought we'd find you here" my sister's voice was heard as I look up to see her and my direwolf, Soleil. She smiled at me as Soleil laid near Jaime's grave with a sad whine, I stroked her fur softly

"It's been a year since his death and I still miss him..." I sighed and wiped my tears with my dress sleeve

"Jaime was a good man Sofia" she says with a small smile "But you have to move on, he would've wanted you to" she said in all seriousness

"Let me grieve Sansa!" I stood up angrily, my eyes welling up with tears once again "You won't understand because you actually wanted Ramsay dead and you never really loved him! And your marriage to Tyrion was just a political marriage and it went unconsummated!" I spat, mentioning my sister's fallen second husband and my goodbrother who was also her first husband

"You're right, I will never understand your pain..." she trailed "But if Jaime was still alive he would've been unhappy on how you treat yourself!" she exclaims "You barely sleep, you barely eat and the only time you leave the castle is when you visit Jaime's grave." she sighs "Bran told me to let you grieve but I can't help but worry about you Sofia." she caressed my cheeks and wiped my tears "I don't want to lose you too... I've already lost so much." she tears up

My face softens as I pull her into a tight hug "I'm sorry for worrying you." I kissed her forehead "I know you mean well but I just..." she cuts me off

"No... I'm sorry that I'm forcing you to move on so quick... But if anything happens to me, you'll be the queen of the north and you have to be strong for our people." she says, smiling softly

"Being queen is the least of my priorities my sweet sister... You deserve the throne more than I." I smiled weakly, caressing her cheek "But I promised Father that I'd protect all of you as the oldest wolf cub... I might've not succeeded with Robb but I intend to keep my promise... And I will never let anything or anyone harm you all, I swear it to my parents' grave and the old gods and new." I kissed her forehead as Soleil nuzzles her nose on my leg, making me smile

A/N: Hello my lovelies and welcome to the edited/proofread version of my successful story so far! The plot and backstory are still similar but there are a few revisions and little tweaks for this story!

I changed the Season 8 ending as usual but this story (and it's sequel) doesn't follow the second season of the Witcher onwards

And I recasted Vesemir, Eskel and Lambert as my favorite Filipino actors (though they'll make an appearance in Destined 💛)

Thank you so much for your support and I hope you'll keep supporting Destined To Be Yours and Destined ☺️💕

And in my recent re-edit, you'll know who is her maternal family are 🤍
