------------------------------
Cassana nodded her head. She still could not get rid of her sorrows for her lost son. Edward decided to take it easy with her and let her enjoy it a little more before her other sons died as well.
After entering his wife's room, Edward could see Ashara sitting there talking with the maidservants while still holding the newborn baby. The little Raymont was sitting beside her while playing with his brother.
When Edward entered the room, Ashara's face lit up with a beautiful smile. She had missed him a lot. Edward had been absent for more than three months, and no one was telling her anything. When she asked the servants, they would say that they were instructed not to tell her anything. The orders came from Edward himself.
"My love, it had been a while. Where were you hiding all that time?" Said Ashara with a smile on her face. She wanted to eat him up at the moment, but she could not at the moment.
"Leave." Ordered Edward as he looked at the servants. The servant nodded their heads and left one after the other till Ashara and Edward and their two sons were the only ones in the room.
Seeing how Edward turned serious at the moment, Ashara turned serious too. She had a hunch that something bad might have happened to Edward when he did not visit her for the last few months.
After seeing the look on Ashara's eyes, Edward could only sigh. It was finally the time to change Ashara's playful attitude. Edward wondered how his little experiment's results would be. He wished that Ashara could handle the next few hardships.
"I ordered everyone to hide the information from you because I did not want anything to affect our son." Said Edward as he came close to Ashara. He wanted to have a close look at his newly born son.
"What happened, Edward?" Asked Ashara as she got a bad promotion.
"Do you remember my plans?" Asked Edward while holding the hands of the little Axil.
Ashara nodded her head furiously and had a thought in her mind. Edward had started his plans without telling her. She got a little mad here as Edward's decision might affect the Dayne's since they were his in-laws. Not to mention the bad effect of Edward's rebellion on the relationship between her and Elia, her brother and sister might get complicated in the process.
"Well, everything got fucked up by the madking." Said Edward as he faked his pained expression. Edward was getting good at this. He played with people's feelings well enough to fake any emotion at any moment.
"What do you mean?" Asked Ashara as she looked at Edward with a complicated expression. Did the madking do something to her family?
"Not only did Rhaegar discard your friend Elia, but he also kidnapped Robert's betrothed, your friend, Lyanna Stark. The king burned Lord Stark alive after the man asked for an explanation. After a month, he assassinated Brandon Stark, Elbert Arryn, and my brother, Renly. He burned them alive as well." Explained Edward with a heavy heart. The only thing that pained him a little was killing Brandon as he was getting along very well with the man. So he looked more convincing in explaining this face.
"What!!!" Said Ashara in surprise after hearing Edward's words. What the hell happened in the world in the past six months for all this to happen? She got the shock of her life after knowing the whole situation.
"Well, that happened three months ago. Now, we are on an open rebellion against the crown who wanted my head, Robert's, and Ned's. I had already solidified my rule over Stormsland and took nearly a third of The Reach. Plus, I just defeated the crown in the battle of the gate before I returned to see you." Explained Edward as he looked at her face and smiled. He could see that she was going to ask the famous question at any moment soon.
"What about my sister? Where are Allyria and Elia at the moment?" Asked Ashara as she looked at Edward worriedly. She had heard that Rhaegar had sent Elia and her sister to Dragonstone, but she wanted to make sure they were safe.
"The king took Elia and her children hostages in King's Landing to make sure that Dorne helps the crown. Your sister is with them but don't worry. I had already agreed with Robert, Ned, and Jon Arryn on a term before we started all this. Here, you can look at the paper signed by the four of us." Said Edward as he presented the agreement paper to Ashara. He did that in order to show her that he did all he could to save her sister and her friend.
After reading the paper's content and seeing the four people's signatures, she gave Edward a smile from her heart. Although she was still worried as nothing was guaranteed at this point, she saw that Edward did not forget about her little requests from back then and even prepared to save them all in advance. Poor Ashara, she would be heartbroken soon.
"Actually, I am working on getting them all out at the moment. I should have saved your friend's daughter and swapped her with a normal child. She should arrive at Storm's End any time soon. Once she arrives, I want you to take care of her as one of your children. I am trying to get the boy and Allyria next. Pray for the seven to help me." Said Edward with a smile, getting another smile from Ashara. She was impressed by how much Edward worked to achieve her little requests that she thought something was wrong. Ashara was his wife, so, of course, Ashara would know part of his personality by now. They had been married for three years now. She knew that Edward would not do something that would not benefit him. But after some thought, she figured that he might be trying to get on her good side.
"I will say my farewell, again now. I have a war to win." Said Edward as he kissed Ashara and stood up to leave the room. He had finished his business here. He had made sure that his children were fine and made himself innocent in Ashara's eyes.
"Stay safe, my love." Said Ashara as she followed the leaving Edward with her eyes. She really admired Edward's abilities from the bottom of her heart. He had predicted something like that might happen and took precautions to save her friend and her sister.
After Edward left the room, Ashara turned her eyes towards her sons. She could not help but smile after seeing the resemblance between them and her love. She wished they could grow up well and help their father.
"Both of you will have a large amount of work to do to help your father. You must grow up well." Said Ashara as she looked at her two sons with love in her eyes. Raymont, who was three years at the moment, turned to his mother and nodded his head furiously. Although he did not fully understand what his mother said, he could only agree to her seeing her smile at him and his brother.
