(Ellion's POV)
I walked into the King's chambers, "Your Grace." I said as I walked through the door, "You had summoned me?"
King Aerys was standing next to a chair, where Queen Rhaella was sitting down, her face was a bit more serious than earlier before. It appears that the joy of spending time with her eldest son was bitterly ended by her husband's presence.
"Ser Ellion." He cleared his throat, "I believe you have already met my wife, Her Grace."
I nodded and bowed slightly, "My Queen." I said, "It is a pleasure to see you again."
She shifted slightly, the cleavage of her dress was showing slightly, "Ser Ellion." She said, "My Husband tells me that you were a squire to Old Lyonel."
I straightened up and looked at her, "Yes, Your Grace." I said, "That is correct."
Aerys smiled slightly, "The boy was raised by the old bastard." He said, "I told you, wife, that having him here would be well."
Rhaella closed her eyes, "The last time you saw Lyonel, you nearly had him executed." She said, "Or had you forgotten that, Aerys?"
Aerys cleared his throat, "Well, I was a bit angry, that was all." He said, "I mean, why would I even try to kill someone who served our House well?"
"That is what I asked myself." Rhaella opened her eyes and looked at her, "And I have been told that this boy is skilled with the blade. How many times have I mentioned not to use others to spill blood for you."
Aerys leaned down to her, "I already told you, my dear wife." He said seriously, "You have no say to the affairs of the King. If Ellion is to spill blood for me, then so be it."
I cleared my throat, "My apologies." I said, "Is there a reason I was summoned, Your Grace? Do you have a name for me already?"
Aerys straightened up, "Oh no." He said as he walked up to me, "You are here to receive your reward. I told my wife that you have killed in my name already, blood has already been spilled!"
He patted my shoulder and smirked, giving me an unsettling vibe.
"Yes." I said, "I defended His Grace during an attack, that was all I did."
"And as a reward...." Aerys continued, "I'll let you take a pick from any of my wife's personal servants. Rhaella really likes to surround herself in pretty faces."
Rhaella was looking to the side, her face was showing slight signs of disgust. There was no doubt that she was uncomfortable with this.
"Your Grace, that is quite inappropriate." I said, "I would never disrespect Her Grace like that."
"But I am the King." He said, giving me a sinister smile, "My word is law."
The moment he said those words, I could feel nothing but a sick perversion in his tone. There was no doubt that while he had not fully lost his fucking mind, there was something clearly wrong with this man.
"But by taking a pick...." I said, "W-What do you mean?"
"You will fuck them, of course." Aerys said
"Aerys...." Rhaella said, shifting uncomfortably, "Stop it."
"Silence from you, Rhaella." Aerys said, "I told Ellion of our little arrangement. You see, he is not like Lyonel. Ellion may have been raised by him, he might've been taught the morals and ethics of being a man or a decent individual. I am sure he did so, Lyonel was quite the decent and honorable man. But when it comes to Lust, Ellion is no Lyonel."
"Is he like you....?" Rhaella said softly, her voice was low
"I am not that person anymore." Aerys said, "But Ellion is young."
I don't think I like whatever this is.
"Your Grace." I said, "If I accept, would the Queen have to be forced to hear things that make her uncomfortable?"
"Hm...." Aerys said as he stepped to the side, "Well, she doesn't have to hear. But she does have to know that I will personally have her servants serve you."
"If I refuse?" I asked
"You wouldn't, would you?" He said, giving me a scowl, "I am being generous, boy."
I glanced at Rhaella, who was looking to the side, clearly uncomfortable by this.
I let out a sigh, "Very well." I said, "Where are these women?"
"That's my boy." He patted my shoulder, "I will have them summoned. They are quite the pretty faces with such bodies, heh."
Rhaella stood up and walked past us, "I have no need to be here." She said, "I need to check on Viserys."
Aerys grabbed her by the arm, "You're not going anywhere." He said with a menacing tone, "You will stay and ensure that your servants are comfortable. They do need the Queen's presence after all."
Rhaella glared at him, "Unhand me." She said seriously, "Now."
"No." Aerys said, pulling her to his side, "Do not embarrass me in front of the boy."
I cleared my throat, "Your Grace." I said, "There is no need for this. I don't mind if The Queen-"
"She stays." He cut me off
I nodded, "If you say so."
I need to try and defuse this without angering this fucker. He is starting to show me a glimpse of his sick perverted insanity. And judging by how Rhaella is acting, she wants no part of this.
Rhaella pulled away, "Let go of me." She said, "I will stay. But I have no obligation to show that I am okay with this."
"I don't expect you to." Aerys said, "But I am a man of my word, Rhaella. When I told you that your personal servants will not be touched unless you are present and you assure them, I meant it. And if I find out that those women are having a relationship without our consent, I will cut their heads off."
"That is rather extreme." I spoke up, "They are people who have desires as well. If they are baseborn, they can marry other baseborn men should they choose. Obviously, if they are philandering with highborns or knights, something that would cause a scandal, then that would be a problem."
Aerys looked at me, staring at me for a couple of seconds, "Hm...." He said, "Interesting."
Rhaella shifted in her feet, looking down and saying nothing.
"That's a good point." Aerys said, "And it's not like I was using them for my own pleasure. But oh, you do make a good point. Well, Rhaella, I told you that this boy would be a wise addition to our ranks. He just helped your girls out."
Rhaella looked to the side, "Hm...." She said, "You have my thanks, Ser Ellion."
"Now." Aerys clapped, "Get these women out here."
"I want Ellion to choose who to fuck."
