Chapter 4 - Her Beasts

Arya opened her eyes and saw Davis shaking her. She wasn't in any mood for breakfast as she had said early so why was he waking her up.

" Ryker is here to visit you." Davis went

Arya's brain was loading the information. She was confused on why Ryker would need to meet her and was ready to send him away. Although this would her look like she's heartbroken princess and back fire on her.

" Send him to the Drawing Room." she sighed " Davis pick out an outfit."

" Shouldn't you ask a maid to do such things?" Davis frowned

Arya grinned, " Why would I want to look at maid?"

" Hopeless...." he went with tired smiled

" If I'm late it's you're fault..." Arya teased

" GET IN THE TUB!!!!!" He reacted throwing a pillow at the escaping Arya

After a long discussion on what to wear Arya and Davis finally decided on a dress. She went to Ryker who was still waiting.

" You should have sent a letter earlier on, Sir Drag. You know beauty takes a lot of time and it's so late what would happen if we kept you too late?" Arya frowned dramatically

" Aren't we friends before fiancée? It would be odd to suddenly not see each other?" Ryker smiled

Arya smirked closing in on Ryker, " You are fully aware that we can never go back to how we were....right?"

" Whatever do mean?" Ryker frowned

" Ryker le Drag. Wanna guess what I'm thinking, Dear friend?" She smiled widely

Ryker could see a hungry glow within Arya's eyes like that of a predator. He knew that look well since it's the look he sees in the mirror. Two predators would never get along if they are after the same thing.

" Did you change the staff?" Ryker asked when a maid came in with refreshments

Arya sighed, " Naturally what can I do if everyone kept resigning."

Ryker tried to remain calm as Arya's eyes seemed to smile wickedly.

" What else can we do...." he agreed clenching his hands

Arya smiled, " So shall I see you out?"

" Not needed. We're friends aren't we?" He replied

" No. we aren't-" she smiled as he passed her.

The intelligence and assassination's guild Arya formed, Silent Whisper confirmed that an important figure, His Highness the King Damian Qi from the Ding Kingdom will be coming to Winterfell.

" Davis get the carriage ready." she smiled

Asher was ready to go with Arya and the departed to the Beast Forest with her wings and Nathaniel

" The Beast Forest is banned from entry by humans. You know that right Asher." Arya smiled

Asher smiled " Who doesn't know that?"

" His Majesty, King Qi." Davis smirked " How would he know if it's a taboo to take about the cursed Beast Forest."

They walked through the forest and started hearing screams for help. Arya and Asher sped forward seeing a carriage being attacked by beast. The two royals killed the creatures and a man exited the carriage.

" Thank you, I am Damian Oi from Ding Kingdom how may I repay you?" he asked with a refined aura

" I am Arya Zenni de Winterfell. This is my brother Asher Zaki de Winterfell." Arya told " I only helped since you knights called for it."

" But you still require my thanks." King Qi smiled

Arya smiled as she looked deeper into the forest where she was heading. King Qi and Arya didn't talk about how the royal heir and prince were doing within a Forest.

" Will you be going deeper into the forest?" King Qi asked

" Yes. Don't worry the path after here is free from corrupted beasts." Arya told

" Corrupted Beasts?" King Qi thought

Arya and Asher were about to leave further when seeing Davis and the other coming closer to them.

" If you don't mind, may I come with you as well." King Qi asked

Arya gaped, " Your Highness. Leading a royalty to death is an offence by death and I like being alive."

" Don't worry. This is my choice." he smiled

Arya and Asher dashed forward with Arya leading the way to a waterfall. To their surprise King Qi was right behind as the enter a crack into the waterfall.

" Those will be yours, Asher. Raise them well." Arya smiled pointing towards two eggs in the center

Asher cut his hand and smeared it over the two eggs as Arya had taught him. When they exited they were cornered by cursed beasts.

" Don't worry this too will be an opportunity." Arya smirked

The dragon appeared above Arya and she healed the cursed forest. The ruler of the beasts landed in front of them as the rest of their company arrived.

" Who are you?" he asked

" Arya and this is my brother Asher."

The great griffon lowered it head in submission and Davis looked at the large grin on her face. She urged King Qi not to mention about the Beast Forest incident and within no time it was time for the ball to welcome King Qi.

Ryker approached Arya in the middle of the ballroom.

" May I have his dance?" he smiled

Arya poured her glass of red wine over his whit suit and the room was silenced as she tripped the male lead.

" Why?!" Ryker exclaimed

Arya was in a beautiful navy blue dress and spun her index finger over the rim of her glass. She glanced towards Ryker than towards their audience. Ryker saw a small smile on her face and smiled back. Arya released the glass and as it shattered Queen Penelope poured water on Arya.

" Where is my son?" she went

Arya was in tears and the dripping water over her made her look good. The hall was staring passionately as Arya went, " He doesn't want to see you..."

" What?! I'm his mother!!!" Penelope reacted

Arya pulled in Penelope, " Maybe he know about you 'little' habits you've been developing. Mother?"

Penelope was silent biting her lip wondering what Arya knew.

* SCREAMING*

" Her Highness Sofia...HAS BEEN POISONED!!!!!!"

" It has began. The season has started." Arya thought

" ARYA WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!?!?!" Ryker blurted out

Arya scoffed, " Ha. Look at this bastard."

Knights surrounded Arya and the commotion was growing.

" Search....Ryker's attendant before arresting me." Arya smiled

They did just that and found a bottle of poison. They were surprised and Ryker rebuked the attendant clearing his image.

The next day the King was poisoned and a meeting was held. Arya sat in the position of the King and they whispered among each other.

" I'm truly sorry but as the original heir I must be here. Law states a meeting can't be held without the King or rightful Heir." Arya smiled "Female heir, if she is unmarried or engaged. This female heir can take duties of the King if he his unable."

" Let the meeting begin."

" Now I'm free to do as I wish until my father's luck improves." Arya thought with a smile
