Ava's POVWhen I woke up in the morning, Ramsay was basically lying on top of me, his hand still holding onto my hair. I tried to climb out from his grip, but his eyes shot open. "Where are you going lover? Don't you want to spend the morning here, with me?" Why wasn't he going off his head again? When Ramsay was acting calm, that's when you knew he was at his angriest. We had argued the night before, badly. In the whole day since I had arrived back in Winterfell, I had tried my best to stop him declaring a war on my brother. He snapped and he began hurling insults at me and physically lashing out, shaking me, slapping me across the face and strangling me.
He raised his eyebrow and me and gestured to his shoulder, I quickly lay back down, using his shoulder to rest my head, he wrapped his arm around me. "This is nice, isn't it? Us spending the morning together." I nodded my head and kissed his cheek. "Yes lover" I replied. He ran his fingers up and down my bruised arm, "Do you have anything you want to say to me Ava?" He was giving me the chance to get back onto his good side, playing his mind games with me, and I fell right into his hands. "I'm sorry for the way I acted last night Ramsay. I was wrong, and I know that. I should never have reacted the way I did and should not have been so horrible to you. Thank you for always protecting me, and caring about me."
He smiled, he had me right where he wanted me. "Good girl Ava, I accept your apology." I stayed silent for while, thinking about my life. I was free for a while and I had the opportunity to never be beaten again, but I missed him with my whole body and soul, I felt the gravitational pull that brought me back to him. He ran a finger over my cut lip. "I don't like it when you make me do that to you." He got up and pulled his clothes on. "I have some business in the Kennel's and it's not very pretty. Stay out of the way and get yourself some breakfast Ava." He went out the door just a Agnes was came in.
"Not again, Lady Ava." She whispered as the bedroom door swung shut. "You only came home yesterday and he's already done this again." She came towards the bed and she pulled the furs off me, my legs and arms were bruised, my neck had a slight blue tint to it. I had kept my nightdress on, so I didn't see the bruising on my hips. "Did he hurt you again Lady Bolton?" She asked. "No, of course he didn't. He's just gets a little out of control sometimes." It wasn't exactly a lie, all the bruises other than my neck, happened as we had sex last night. Ramsay liked to be in control in every aspect of life. Agnes was too young to understand, I didn't like her seeing me this way
Agnes didn't say anything else for a few moments. She was so scared of Ramsay, she didn't want to risk saying anything that would get her punished, or killed. "Ava I need to tell you something." She hesitated. "Are you okay? What is it?" She looked so timid. She sighed. "Lord Bolton killed his father." I interrupted her. "I know Agnes, but he tried to kill me first." She sat down on the bed before speaking again. "I'm sorry Ava, I don't want to cause any trouble, but I'm scared for you and your daughter. He didn't just kill his father, he also killed Lady Walda, and Domeric. He fed them to his hounds."
My heart palpitated. I liked Walda and I was so excited to finally get to see Ramsay's brother. The thought of two innocent people meeting a fate like that made me feel sick. "Please tell me he didn't. You must be mistaken." I wanted her to tell me she had got it wrong, but she couldn't. "I'm so sorry for your house's loss." I stood up from my chair and left the room, I was too stunned to say anything, my heart was broken for Walda and her son. My dress dragged along the snowy ground of Winterfell. I shivered in the freezing air. The snow was slowly starting to lift, it wouldn't be long before it was all gone.
