You had done your best to scrub your eyes and remove the remnants of your tears and sorrow that had been held through your time in your tent. You weren't fully certain as to why the sorrow had hit you so, you knew not of the full reasoning, but you needed to have someone to talk about such things with and the knew Khaleesi was your best bet.

Having seen the Khal leave early in the morning, you merely had to talk to the guards outside their shared tent, hoping to get a moment with your Khaleesi. You weren't Dothraki but were travelling with the Khalasar and still had to answer to their rulers, even if they weren't your own. You approached the guards and asked to speak with her, they were hesitant due to your broken Dothraki but when the Khaleesi heard your pleading words in the common tongue of Westeros, she told them it was fine for you to approach and enter the tent.

As you entered the tent, you found her sat on the edge of her bed, dressed in the expected attire of a Khaleesi, a far cry from what she would have been used to.

"It is Y/N, is it not?" She smiled fondly. "You were a friend of my brother's?"

"I don't think he would have used the term friend, Khaleesi," you whispered. "I am sure he would have used the term whore."

"You aren't any common whore though, why would he suggest you were?"

You let out a sigh, not wishing to think of her brother, as he wasn't the friendliest person but nevertheless you had the memories and those were not to die anytime soon.

"He sought to wed me, Khaleesi. I was in Pentos to discuss trade for my father in the seven kingdoms but as a woman of a noble family, he thought he could wed me and force my family to support his claim to the iron throne. I guess that does not matter now though."

"I guess not," she said softly, rising from her seat to approach you. "Did you love my brother?"

You shook your head. "I am sorry, Khaleesi. I never loved him, nor did he love me. I do mourn him though, but less out of sorrow and more out of loss of my life now."

"I do not believe I follow."

A sob attempted to escape your throat. Seeing the death that Viserys faced the night prior had filled you with fear but that didn't mean you missed him or felt sad for that lost life. Even if he treated you terribly and always reminded you that you were simply a means to an end, he kept some security for you. Now you could no longer return to Westeros, you were stuck in no man's land without anywhere to turn.

"He believed if there was a Targaryen and Y/S/N heir, his claim would be fully sealed. He cared little for the fact that we weren't wed and did not wish to wed until he knew I could provide him what he wanted. In doing so, now in his death, I have lost the only safety I had," you croaked, trying your best to compose yourself.

"Did he force himself upon you?" She asked, resting a hand on your arm.

You nodded your head. "He succeeded with his plan. I am pregnant with his child. I had not told him though in fear of how he would react. I can never return to my home without being accused of a treacherous whore. Being pregnant with a dead man's child who wasn't my husband will destroy me. I do not know what I am meant to do."

She looked concerned and apologetic. She knew her brother was a foul creature but never to this extent.

"I am sorry for my brother's actions," she said softly. "However, Khal Drogo and myself are going to take our Khalasar back to Westeros to take my fathers throne. Once that is done, you shall have no reason to worry. Until then you shall be my loyal confidant and handmaiden. I can make sure you are given the best care and the life you deserve whilst offering you a position to allow you to support your child. If there is anything you need, you shall not need to hesitate before asking me."

Your emotions overflew, tears spilling down your cheeks as you realised that things weren't going to be as bad as they once seemed.

"Thank you, Khaleesi. Thank you so much," you sobbed.

"Please Y/N. It is Daenerys."
