"A wife I don't love." He uttered the words for the first time out loud and quickly regretted them as soon as they left his lips. It was a mistake, but he already was in a display of weakness as emotions washed over him.
Pulling away, he steps over to a chair and sits down. The fire reflected off the darkened walls, patterns dancing in a heated display as the night settled in. He couldn't look at her. Not now. "You should leave."
She had spent too much time already in his room and he didn't want suspicions to he roused and in fears of whatever else he might say that shouldn't be spoken. What happened to the King that was rumored to be such an enigma, hardened in battle and a dire wolf at his command, only to become weak in the knees over some news? He was blindsighted and didn't know how to properly react. As if there were anything proper about knowing he had a child 3 years ago that he never met. Worst yet, Margaery is right in every sense of the matter, always acting quickly and in best interests.

She should be Queen of the realm over Renly.
