Capítulo 1: Chapter 1 Illegitimate Child
In year 276 Aegon's Calendar, the sun sets south of Westeros
A merchant ship was trudging forward on rough seas. In the cabin a man was lying weakly on the bed.
His complexion was ashen, so pale that it was almost transparent. The torture of illness and persistent high fever had long deprived him of the ability to speak.
His name is Morton Cotoin, he is the eldest son of count Horton Cotoin and heir to the Cotoin family in the Three Towers of the River Bend.
Eight months ago, he took two personal guards and servants to travel to the continent of Essos.
After his travels, he boarded a merchant ship for old Town, but unfortunately fell ill on the ship towards the end of the voyage.
Due to his serious condition and the storm that lasted for five days, he was already seasick and could not get up after lying in a bed.
No matter hoe attentively his fiancee and servants took care of him, they still couldn't stop the flame of life from gradually fading in his eyes despite the lack of medical care and medicine on ship.
Alice knelt beside his bed, tears pouring out like a torrent, holding Morton's increasingly cold hand tightly with both hands.
She has long silver-gold hair that falls smoothly down her slender back like a waterfall. Her eyes were a mysterious purple, like violets blooming in a deep valley, excluding a charming and noble aura. At this time, her abdomen was slightly bulging, and she was obviously pregnant.
Morton looked at his lover tenderly, looking into her silver hair and purple eyes. This was his biggest gain during his travels, the legacy of a dragon king.
The silver-haired and purple-eyed targaryen family has used dragons to rule the continent of Westeros for 300 years. Countless nobles and scholars believe that they are beings closest to gods. This situation has led to 100 years, countless families have been eager to obtain targaryen's blood, especially the women of this family. This still the case even though dragons have been extinct for nearly a 100 years.
However, the Targaryen family protects their own blood very well and even illegitimate children are controlled by them on dragonstone, So far, few families have obtained it.
Mortons cotoin family is a small family in westeros in the River Bend. They never have the courage to even think about such a good thing.
Untill he met Alice, a lowly hotel maid, during his travels. At first he was attracted by her looks, but he ended up falling for her, In the end she revealed her feeling towards him.
But at this time, his body no longer able to insist on letting him return to his family. Just relaying on letters could not convince his stubborn and cold father. He knew that this bloodline might not be able to integrate into his family after all.
Morton looked at alice's slightly bulging belly. He felt he should do something so he forced himself to say:"Alice, our child is about to come to this world but im afraid i won't be able to wait for that moment. "if it's a boy let's call him Gavin. This name give him courage and strength to face everything in future." Morton breathed heavily with every word. They all seemed to be squeedzed out from the depths of the soul.
Alice suppressed her grief and was already crying but she still nodded and said with a trembling voice okay Morton our child's name will be Gavin.
Morton forced a smile on his lips, which seemed to be a deep expectation for the future and he slowly closed his eyes.
After several days the merchant ship finnaly arrived at the port of Old town. The guards found the silent sisters and asked the Hightower for help and sent raven to Three Towers Castle.
In the castle Count Horton Cotoin was sitting on a high seat reading the letter face gloomy.
This is a disgrace to the family! Horton shouted angrily, The child in her belly was tarnished the honor of my family what's more i will never let my eldest son marry a women from Valencia. Lantis
The earl's roar caused silence in the hall.
Bachelore Edric looked around at the retainers who were bowing their heads silently then he said:
Sir please forgive for being blunt but the Cotoin family bloodline is very thin. How about to consider the continution of the bloodline? Why not...
No, this child is illegitimate child and cannot be member of my family i do not know how that vile woman from volantis succed in seducing my son but i will never admit it.
Go bring my sons body, Then he hesitated and said also bring that woman back to let her stay in castle to give birth. But after giving birth she has to leave.
"Send ravens to Highgarden and tell the Tyrell family that my heir has passed away, I want to make Edmund my new heir.
Yes, sir. Edric had no choice but to bow his head and obey.
In a dimly guest room, Alice sat on edge of the bed tears flowing down her face. Morton had vowed to marry her and hold a wedding when returned to westeros.
Although Morton had left, she thought that she and her unborn child would have some status. But when she came to Three towers castle with full expectations the cruel reality was beyond her expectation.
She tried her best but she couldn't she the earl, and every request was ruthlessly rejected. This made her heart feel as she had fallen into an abyss.
Year 277 of Aegon's Calendar, 6 months later.
It was dark in the guest room Alice heart rending screams echoed in the room and severe pain made her almost faint.
Finnaly with help of some maids and with a clear cry, the child was born.
The baby's hair was very sparse it could still still be seen that it was silver. Bachelor Edric picked up the baby and observed for long time and said "Congratulations, it's a boy".
Then he ordered the servants to help take care of him and left in hurry. After several twists and turns, he finally climbed up the tower exhousted, raised his trembling hand knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong"
"Come in" the voice came from inside the house.
