At Riverrun, Catelyn frees Jaime from captivity in an effort to exchange him for her daughters, allowing his cousin, Cleos Frey, to accompany him along with her sworn sword, [[Brienne of Tarth]].{{ref|ASOS|1}} On the journey to King's Landing, Cleos proves to be a useless fighter, and he is killed by [[outlaws]] near [[Maidenpool]].{{ref|ASOS|21}}

Robb Stark's marriage to [[Jeyne Westerling]] outrages House Frey and breaks their alliance. Ryman and Black Walder angrily depart Robb's army at the Crag,{{ref|ASOS|14}} as do Freys led by Perwyn and Martyn Rivers at [[Riverrun]].{{ref|ASOS|14}} The Freys with Ser [[Aenys Frey|Frey]] at [[Harrenhal]] are also enraged,{{ref|ACOK|64}} but they remain with Lord [[Roose Bolton]].{{ref|ASOS|31}}

After the passing of [[Hoster Tully]], the [[Lord Paramount of the Trident]], [[Lothar Frey|Lame Lothar]] and [[Walder Rivers|Bastard Walder]] arrive at Riverrun with forty men from the Twins. Their father, Lord Walder, suggests that their new liege lord, Robb's uncle [[Edmure Tully]], stand in Robb's place for the marriage alliance and marry Walder's daughter, [[Roslin Frey|Roslin]].{{ref|ASOS|35}}

While Robb leads his northmen and some rivermen from Riverrun to the Twins, Roose leads his own host north from Harrenhal. They are welcomed and given [[guest right]] by the Freys.{{ref|ASOS|49}} However, Walder has secretly negotiated with Lord [[Tywin Lannister]], the [[Hand of the King]] to [[Joffrey Baratheon|Joffrey I Baratheon]], and Lord Bolton. They betray the Starks and Tullys at the [[Red Wedding]], breaking [[guest right]] and slaughtering their former allies. [[Aegon Frey (son of Stevron)|Jinglebell]], [[Benfrey Frey|Benfrey]], and [[Tytos Frey|Tytos]] are killed in the process.{{ref|ASOS|51}}{{ref|ASOS|Epilogue}} Perwyn, Olyvar, and [[Alesander Frey|Alesander]] had been sent away beforehand, they being too friendly with the Starks.{{ref|ASOS|51}}

The Freys are rewarded by the [[Iron Throne]] for killing King Robb and capturing Lord Edmure. Walder Frey's second son, [[Emmon Frey|Emmon]], is given the lordship of a junior branch, [[House Frey of Riverrun]], when House Tully is divested of their seat.{{ref|AGOT|53}} Ryman and his son, [[Edwyn Frey|Edwyn]], lead two thousand men to join Ser [[Daven Lannister]] in the [[siege of Riverrun]], while Black Walder resolves the [[siege of Seagard]] by threatening to kill [[Patrek Mallister]].{{ref|ASOS|60}}

Other nobles and the smallfolk scorn House Frey for breaking the sacred guest right. [[Petyr Frey|Petyr]] and [[Merrett Frey|Merrett]] are seized and hanged by the revived Lady Catelyn and her incarnation of the [[brotherhood without banners]].
