“No, I don’t believe he did. Robert would never physically harm his brothers in such a way, no matter what else he may have felt about them. But I do recall him laughing when I told him what his hawk had done, which was nearly as cruel as if he had ordered the attack. ‘Weakwing must have seemed like prey,’ he replied.”
Robb would never have said something like that to me. But there was no point in saying that, for he doubted Stannis would understand how close and how much love there had always been between him and Robb. He squeezed Stannis’ shoulder, in what he hoped was a comforting gesture.
With that, Stannis threw his furs over the both of them, pulling Jon toward him so their bodies were flush against each other once more. Jon could feel warm breath on the back of his neck, which sent a jolt up his spine.
It was odd, he thought, that Stannis hadn’t ordered him out of his chambers yet, like he usually did when the fire had been reduced to embers and Jon had started to yawn.
It must be the cold. It’s because of the cold that Stannis hasn’t demanded me to leave.
But that was okay. It’s not like Jon had any intention of leaving, anyway.
