[For Hannibal] The Raid

Since the Lannister execution and the overthrowing of Tommen Baratheon, Hannibal had settled into the Iron Throne rather comfortably with Margaery at his side. The Bolton reign had begun. And having already amassed a strong brood of children, the dynasty looked as if it would be set for some time.

Of course there were those who opposed their new King. Remnants of those loyal to the Lannisters, or the true Targaryen loyalists who considered Hannibal an unworthy successor in comparison to Daenerys. There were minor uprisings, which were put down with ease between the Bolton and Tyrell army.

But a raven arrived one morning from Winterfell.

The royal family sat at the breakfast table. Rhys and Reina were bickering over the last biscuit, while Aenar crumbled his food between his tiny fingers, and Margaery held Lorys to her breast to feed her. A servant brought the note, addressed to Margaery, which Margaery took with her free hand. Her expression turned grave as she looked to Hannibal.

"It's from Sansa. She says a few days ago a messenger from the Dreadfort arrived and told her that there was activity stirring on the Iron Islands..." she was nervous. The Ironborn were a salty, devious lot. Her grandmother had always preferred the quasi-savage Dornish to the Ironborn.

No sooner had she read the message, then the signal horn sounded and Gold Cloak rushed in. Black sails bearing the golden kracken were approaching Blackwater Bay at top speed - faster than any ship they'd yet seen. Margaery went pale.

Breanna picked up the young Aenar to carry him as well. She knew the King and Queen would want to see that they were indeed safe.

Hannibal nodded his head in silent agreement. Rhys and Reina burst into the room first. "Mama!?" They cried out before rushing to the bed to hug her tightly. Rhys spotted the bruises on her face and anger filled his young face. He looked to his father. "They paid for hurting my mother?"

Hannibal gave a nod a he touched his sons shoulder. "Yes son. The price has been paid for treachery. Now, hug your mother. She missed you greatly. He said. He moved to stand next to the bed as he worked to remove his armor.

He saw Breanna enter and gave a nod of his head. "Did our children behave themselves Lord Commander?"

Margaery as overjoyed to see her children and hugged the twins tight when they were in reach. She smiled at Rhys when he was so quick to defend her. Margaery kissed his forehead and nodded slowly. "They paid the Bolton price, your father saw to that."

"Mama!" Reins whimpered, burying her face into Margaery's chest and crying in relief.

"They behaved, but they were anxious and worried to see their parents alive and well," Brienne replied. Margaery reached for Loerys, who Brienne handed over without delay.

Aenar was set on the bed beside his siblings and crawled near his mother, who cradled Loerys in her arms.

Hannibal finished removing his armor before he looked at Brienne. "Was this contained?" He wa sreferring to news of what had happened getting out to the public.

Brienne gave a bow of her head. "Indeed it was your Grace. The people think you flew off to chase the attack down and fully defeat them for their transgression."

Hannibal nodded, "Ensure it remains that way. Set a price on any remaining Ironborn that might have been in Essos so high that they won't be able to bribe their way out of being killed. I am not interested in them being returned alive. All I require is their head." He said. He had no doubt that some Ironborn might have been away from the island.

He then moved to lie down next to Margaery and slip an arm around her slowly. He then looked up at Brienne. "If Lady Tyrell arrives, inform her that we are all here and quite safe. However, we are also exhausted from the ordeal and will meet with her in the morning." He said. He knew Margaery would need some sleep before dealing with her grandmother.

At the mention of Lady Tyrell, Brienne groaned a little, unable to stop herself. Reina looked up with wide, happy eyes. "Mimi's here!!"

"Indeed...Lady Olenna is already here, my king," Brienne grumbled. "Keeping her calm has indeed been taxing, if I may speak frankly."

Margaery chuckled, lifting little Loerys to her breast to feed her.

"It will be difficult to hold her back," Brienne replied.

"Mimi's loud," Rhys added flatly.

Hannibal considered the problem. He was not surprised to find she was here already. "She got here quickly in her carriage." He noted.

Brienne shook her head. "She arrived on horseback Your Grace, and she has been quite loud."

Hannibal raised an eyebrow at that. He was not aware that Lady Olenna still rode horses. However, he should not be surprised since Margaerys health and safety were the major points of concern. He gave his oldest children a look. "Can the two of you go with the Lord Commander? Help her tell Mimi that we will all have breakfast together in the morning. Tell her the Mama is fine, but tired and is already asleep. Can the two of you do that for me?"

Rhys and Reina both nodded their heads. "Yes Papa."

Hannibal nodded. "Good, go and tell her then come back here. You can sleep with us tonight." He said.

Both of their faces lit with excitement at that. They loved it when they could all sleep in the bed together.

Hannibal was pleased with their excitement. He thought that having them close would help Margaery sleep better.

Of course Rhys and Reina eagerly accepted the job. Margaery leaned up a bit to look at them. "Rhys, Reina, you know how Mimi is, when you tell her Mama is sleeping, don't let her come up here. She will try, you'll protect Mama, won't you?"

They both nodded eagerly. Margaery smiled and waved them both off. They followed Brienne to deliver the news to their great-grandmother. About that time, Loerys was through eating and ready to be burped. Margaery saw to that before lifting the baby for Hannibal to take.

Now Aenar wanted attention. He crawled closer to Margaery and she took him in her arms to rock him slowly. She had to breathe carefully, purposefully.

"What an ordeal..." She mumbled. She looked to Hannibal again with soft eyes. "Thank you, for rescuing me, for avenging me, for taking care of me."

Hannibal looked deep with her eyes with love. "Always my love. I will always tend to you and support you. I would destroy a tree if it dropped an acorn upon your head. Never fear, I will always be here for you." He said.

He leaned in to kiss her temple softly as he held young Loerys. "Would you like to change before the other two come back for bed my love? I can manage these two alone." He said.

Margaery smiled and tilted her head when he leaned in to kiss her temple. She caught his lips with her own. Margaery kissed him passionately and pressed her forehead to his.

"Yes...." She whispered in answer to his question. "....euron was the last man inside me...I...I can't tolerate that..." She whispered.

Margaery sat up to allow Hannibal to take Aenar. Then she would stand up to undress.

Hannibal returned that passionate kiss with an equal amount of fire. He looked in her eyes as she spoke. He tended to their children, but watched her as she changed. "Do you wish for me to change that before we go to sleep?" He asked her.

He would do whatever she needed to assist in her recovery from the damage Euron had done.

Margaery let the gown fall to the floor. As he posed the question, Margaery crossed her hands over her chest. She was bare, but she didn't want to hide herself from him.

"...forgive me...im not ready, but I'm not...I'm not ready. But at the same time, I don't want to sleep in our bed knowing he's been inside me..." She looked over her shoulder to him with sadness and struggle in her eyes. "I don't know what to do..." She whimpered.

Hannibal looked over her body with loving desire. He saw that Loerys was asleep and he told Aenar to close his eyes and go to sleep. Hannibal then stood and moved to hold her close as he kissed her forehead tenderly. "Why don't I draw you a bath...once Rhys and Reina return I will help wash away anything that remains. That way you can sleep." He offered.

Margaery leaned into him, seeking his warmth as a chill rolled through her from being nude. She nodded slowly. "We'll put the children to bed, then yes, a bath sounds good. I'm sure that will help." She kissed his chin affectionately.

Hannibal smiled as he wrapped his arms around her. He shifted them to wrap a warm robe around her before leading. Her back to the bed. "Come my sweet love. I believe young Aenar wishes to spend time with you. I will go and start your bah and return in a moment." He said.

He moved to start the water and remained in her view the entire time.

Margaery moved to slip into the robe as Hannibal dressed her. She then followed to the bed and settled in. Margaery slowly picked Aenar up into her arms as Loerys slept.

"My sweet boy," she whispered as she held him close. "We're you good while Mama waa gone? I'm sorry I couldn't stay and I had to leave. But it won't happen again. Mama promises."

Aenar cooed and cuddled in close, Margaery kissed his head and held him tight. After a few moments their eyes closed and they both began to doze off.

Hannibal had returned and smiled when he saw Margaery falling asleep with Aenar. He carefully shifted them so that the two small children were safely in the middle of the bed. He kiss e Margaerys temple as he heard Rhys and Reina returning. "Let is see if they were successful in their mission." He whispered softly.

Margaery mumbled softly as Hannibal moved the baby. Slowly she sat up as Rhys and Reina came charging in, giggling.

"And just what are you both so cheerful about?" Margaery smiled.

"Mimi's sooooo mad!" Reina laughed.

"We told her she needed to leave Mama alone and she got mad," Rhys laughed too.

"Such silly children, come here to your Mama," she smiled as the twins bolted into bed with her and the babies.

Hannibal chuckled at the report. "I certainly hope she is not too cross. Now, your mother and I need to wash up before bed. Can the two of you mind your sleeping brother and sister? We will be back shortly. If they are both asleep and you find yourselves tired you can go to sleep." He said.

Both nodded thei heads in understanding.

Hannibal then kissed the top of each of their heads before offering a hand to Margaery to lead her to the prepared bath.

Margaery let Hannibal help her up, then she let the twins settle into bed with their siblings. She took Loerys and set her in the trundle bed on Margaery's side of the bed. Then she tucked in the other three and kissed them each. Then she took Hannibal's hand and followed him to the bath chamber.

A nice, hot bath sounded like paradise right now.

Hannibal led her to the bathroom and helped her take the robe back off. He also undressed before picking her up and stepping into the bath with her. He settled into the warm water with her back pressed up against his chest. He kissed her temple tenderly as he picked up son soap.

"Relax my love. Let me clean you up." He said as he moved to get her body wet before moving to tenderly massage her breasts as he cleaned them off before slowly moving to clean off her toned stomach.

Margaery let him undress her, and when he lifted her she wrapped her arms around his neck. When he settled into the water she sighed softly at the feeling of the heat and water surrounding her.

"So good to me," she sighed. "What have I done that the gods blessed me with such a loving husband who cares for me as you do?"

Margaery let him move the soap over her breasts and her belly. She frowned and leaned into him a bit. "I can't believe...I can't believe he violated me that way. It hurt...I'm surprised how much it hurt..." her voice cracked as she spoke, remembering the pain.

Hannibal smiled at her first question as his hands shifted to massage her lower back and get her fully relaxed. "How could the gods have gifted me with such a perfect wife to cover my weaknesses with her strengths?" He answered back.

He kissed her temple again when she mentioned the pain she had felt. He knew why she had been injured and a part of him was happy. It meant that her body was never aroused or attracted to what he was doing. It meant that her body remained loyal to him. His hands shifted to massage her hips slowly and tenderly. "I can take that pain away my love. Let my hands soothe away that pain and remove that memory." He said in a soothing voice.

Margaery whimpered a little. She felt better, feeling his fingers work over her pained lower body. She looked over her shoulder to him with a mixture of pain and sadness. "... please... take it away. I want...I want to be able to take you within me again. But as it is now...I can't... it still hurts too much."

Hannibal shushed her softly and turned her just enough to kiss her cheek tenderly. "Not worry my love. I am here. I promise to make it go away." He said before his hands slowly and gradually slid to the inside of her thighs. He began to massage there before shifting up slowly and steadily so that she could predict it to the juncture between her legs and her body.

Margaery nodded and pressed her face into the crook of his neck. She whimpered a bit as he massaged her thighs. Margaery even shook a little, still fragile after the encounter. But his fingers were gentle, strong, just what she needed. As they found the junction between her thighs, Margaery gave a soft whimper of protest, but she would not resist if he insisted. She would trust Hannibal completely.

Hannibal began to kiss along the side of her neck as he shushed her soothingly. "It's me my love. Relax, trust me." He repeated over and over.

His fingers were very careful as he massaged her folds. He rubbed over her clit when he found it standing and wanting his attention. He wanted her body to warm up to him again. He would make certain he had raised her arousak before his fingers made any moves to go inside and begin exploring what damage had been done. He would only use a single finger to prevent discomfort.
