It’s tempting, to tease their uncle on how he manages to almost inhale a full glass of wine. But she knows the stress he was under, with her brother foisting a betrothal on him. It was all their mother, Natari, wished to talk about when Liliyana had visited Storm’s End during the three month break. When she wasn’t teasing her own daughter about finding someone, that is. “Unfortunately, that is a situation I cannot help with. I’m pretty sure the only person with enough power to make Lord Mazhar listen is Aunt Selina.” And even then, it may not be enough. Their aunt would have to forbid the match as Queen Regent, and need a damn good excuse as to why. “All I can offer is advice that you already know to keep in mind. Especially since Pim’s been legitimized.”
lysander didn’t quite know how he wished to go about ending this betrothal. one talk with selina would have it done , but he didn’t wish to make his sister fight all of his battles. if anyone were to understand how he felt about an unwanted and forced marriage , it was she. “ your aunt would handle it the moment i asked , but i can’t rely on her for everything , now can i ? ” she’d already done so much by granting him this position , save the fact that lys was still trying not to be needy when they only just reconnected. she’d shut them out for over a decade , he’d missed his sister dearly. he knew the simplest wave of her hand would banish the thought of a betrothal for him , but lysander wasn’t known for taking the easy way out. “ their legitimization is another reason i won’t bother our dear queen , she’s already done enough. ” a favor he knew wasn’t just made because of their relation , but a favor he wasn’t pushing either.

Her eyes sharpen and her smile falters at his question. truth be told nyx did not care enough for her current husband to question why he was or wasn’t around. he was nothing more than a security of her status. although being around all the royals and nobles once more she should be more careful with it. “lord tyrell does not bother himself with trying to fill a step father role in the life of my girls, and i quite prefer it that way. i am all they have and all they need.” she was firm in her words, as if she was getting a message across. she looks over her shoulders at the ladies standing mere feet from her. nyx gives them careful orders before they all walk away to keep up with the girls. the way he addresses her as lady tyrell pinches her heart, but she remains stoic in the middle of her pain. “you must stop this foolishness, lysander.” she scuffs as they have more freedom to speak, but pandora playing far away enough to not hear but close enough to be seen in her resemblance did not help to keep her calm. “it is pointless for you to insist on this quest, not mention dangerous for her.” if pandora was discovered to be a bastard far more than just rumors would spread, she would be ruined.
he doesn’t miss the reaction her husband brings out of her , and it earns a very smug grin on the baratheon’s lips. he’s never been too sure of which husbands nyx favors and which she does not , but the cocky man refused to believe she was too in love with the tyrell lord after the night they had in his office in highgarden. “ you may be all they need , but children do benefit more from two parents , nyx. ” his words are soft , because he doesn’t want to insinuate that she isn’t enough. but it was why he was so insistent on being in his children’s lives , lys had been the product of an uninvolved father and those scars didn’t fade. he didn’t want that for any child with his blood. his eyes follow the girls as they walk off , but it doesn’t change the volume he speaks. lys doesn’t like others hearing him when the words aren’t meant for them. “ never. ” his word is firm , he won’t give up. lys knew that she was right , but it didn’t mean he could so easily let her go. foolish ideas sprang to his mind , such as getting selina to legitimize the girl as a baratheon so she kept her title and status. but he knew how unlikely that was , even if he refused to admit it. “ do you honestly think i would be obvious about it ? do you think that lowly of me , lady westerling ? ” the hurt in his voice was barely noticeable , but lysander couldn’t even bring himself to call her tyrell.

She can’t help but laugh, openly, as she denies with her head. “how ironic, that might be the only thing you and i can fully agree on,” and not entirely either. she would be much better marrying him as it had been intended since children, than to marry a pirate, or even a dornish man. but if the gods were opposed to the union between stark and bolton, then perhaps placing them in opposite ends of westeros would be nothing more than mercy. “is there really? and here i thought you two were bounded by the hip by honor and duty.” she teases. regardless there was no one else she would trust with her younger brother, connas had always been loyal to her and the starks, and with him little eddie would never be caught in danger. it was a peace of mind for the oldest princess. her gaze lingers in his, grey eyes against the sea blue of his, and she takes in his features and how they have slightly changed in the time she did not see him. and when he finally speaks again she cannot control the jump her heart makes before it begins to pound against her chest with rage. he had never been a man of many words, or soft words either, but she had mastered the language of reading in between his sentences. “i have missed you too, connas.” her words are quiet and gentle, only meant for him to hear.
her laugh warms his heart in places broken and cracked , and connas falls even more into that little hole he was digging himself. it was dangerous , but he couldn’t pull away. “ i think we agree on quite a bit more , princess. ” he teases , but that charming smile slips onto his lips as he relaxes further. it almost feels as if they were before he’d tried to kiss her that first time , and certainly before the library in highgarden. connas hangs onto it for dear life , wanting to simply embrace the fuzzy feelings lya caused to grow inside of him. embrace for once , not run. he chuckles softly , resisting the urge to look for edric again when he just had. it was a habit , one he didn’t quite think was a bad one. “ are you complaining ? i seem to remember a certain stark quite determined to lose her own guard. ” he certainly saw lyarra without a guard far more than with , even now he was certain they may not even know where the princess was. but connas wasn’t worried , she was with him , and he’d always protect her from harm. her words strike right into a vulnerable part of the knight that the princess so effortlessly knew. and he slowly breathes in as if that can help engrain those words into his very soul. “ and i thought you didn’t even like me with how keen you were to avoid me in winterfell. ” he can’t help but tease , but he’d let her do it. connas had been so unsure , so uncertain of himself , and so afraid of pushing her too far that he’d not sought her out when she seemed scarce. “ but you can make it up to me if you come dance with me on the terrace so i can have you all to myself for a moment. ” because he didn’t want to deal with the whispers if they danced in the open , and connas selfishly wanted her to himself if she agreed.

Iseult hummed in response, though her eyebrows raised the slightest bit when her eyes meet Adora’s, her dauther’s eyes filled with mischief. While normally Iseult didn’t mind the smallest bit of trouble, tonight was a night where she wanted to at least pretend to have all her turtles in a row. That doesn’t stop her booming laugh at Oberyn’s comment, shaking her head the slightest bit. “It’s a good thing you don’t need to leave to be of aide.” She could never hurt one of Ryon’s friends, especially not at their wedding. “I know Ryon and I can manage to get her along to bed when the time comes. It doesn’t hurt to have the word of the Ruling Prince of Dorne that not even he is exempt from bedtimes, though.” And with Alyse due any day, the Estermont preferred her daughter’s father be near his wife.
oberyn glances to the smaller version of ryon and iseult , seeing every bit of her father shine in the youth. it didn’t surprise him , he’d grown up with the allyrion lord and fully expected each of the other’s children to be just like him. thus far , oberyn was right. “ i come in handy in many ways when i’m at home. ” because he could easily order several people to help if iseult needed it. though he was certain ryon would lend a hand if he were able. “ of course he is not exempt from bed time , i’d disappear to put our own down if not for the wealth of grandmothers already demanding to do it. ” he says with an effortless chuckle. they were firmly given the night off , the twins not even sleeping in their apartments. oberyn had fought it at first , but once he saw vi he knew he was thankful.

asha can’t help but smirk as soon as she notices sarisa’s eyes peruse her outfit; truthfully, that kind of reaction is exactly what asha wants from those whose attention she wants the most. “enjoyable company?” her fingers run up the dress, far too interested in the skin below than the fabric. “and here i am, not even trying to charm you.” asha gives sarisa a playful look. “this is a very pretty gown.” words drawl, eyes going up to meet sarisa’s.
risa’s grin is easy as she finds herself wrapped up in the blonde ironborn. her own fingers drift to trail across the bare skin of asha’s hip , the only thing keeping her other hand form joining being the goblet of wine in it. “ i’m quite certain you know how to charm someone without even speaking. ” she says slowly , eyes drifting back up to to the other’s. “ is it ? i think it could show even more , i’m quite jealous if how amazing yours looks. ”

veveinne was certain she’d never tire of calling oberyn her husband, was quite content to use it in any number of conversations she’s had so far. he was her sun, of that she had no doubt, but the way he was simply so radiant tonight put every other moment to shame. so focused on preparations for the wedding over the last few months, she hadn’t stopped to allow herself to dwell on what the dornish may say to have a wedding so soon, sita’s death as fresh as any other while she planned to marry oberyn and become ruling lady herself. but if anyone saw them, they’d know that it was not the title she cared for, but the man who made her smile so radiantly, it’s blinding. arms loop loosely around his neck, ensuring as little space as possible between them, and just as when they’d said their vows, the rest of the room seemed to melt away as she looked at him. ❝ i’ll have to remember that, though how do you propose i distract our guests so that they might stop stealing you from me ? ❞ and vi loved every moment with his mother, had even enjoyed making the rounds, but she was more keen on her time spent with him. ❝ surely they will understand i’d much rather be spending time with my husband. ❞
if it weren’t for veveinne , oberyn likely never would have remarried. after his death one of his brothers would take the throne and that would be enough. but she turned his world upside down , changed everything about his perspectives , and shown him a love he’d never realized he was missing. he wouldn’t give it up for a thing. perhaps it was a bit selfish to marry so soon , but the people of dorne hadn’t revolted yet so he assumed that was a good enough sign. perhaps it helped that she was dornish as well , from two powerful women many admired and respected. oberyn also dared anyone to speak to the ladies dayne if they felt the pair should not wed. until then he would live in a blissful state of happiness , clutching to his wife as if she might disappear again otherwise. which , she very well may with how many people were so keen on separating the newly married couple. “ just run away from them , what will they do ? if they are insulted , i’ll just whisk you away for the rest of the night. ” which he was fighting every single urge not to do , all he wanted was to strip her of this dress and have his way with her... maybe before she was bare as well. “ some are blind to their own selfishness , i , however , will boldly be selfish for my wife for the rest of time. ” oberyn was hardly known for his shamefulness.

gcldnhearts:
not being one to often find themselves amongst the lords and ladies of westeros, nakan decided to get away for a bit. even though he’d lived in dorne for many years, he’d never seen the castle up close before and could not help his curiosity, letting his feet take him wandering. a small smile played on his lips when he heard the other, smile growing when got closer to isabaelda. ❝ getting pretty far from the hall, aren’t you? ❞
isa found herself relaxing when nakan’s voice met her ears , and she smirked at his comment. “ and you aren’t ? ” comes her reply. isa was grateful she didn’t have to come up with a lie as to why she was this far from the party , nakan would likely point it out even if she tried. but she did offer the other a grain of truth , “ my parents are here , i’m avoiding their eyes. ” eyes that didn’t seem to stop watching her as if she was either in desperate need of a betrothal or a ship home. isabaelda wished for neither.

reila bites her lip to stop the snort that threatens to slip out when her best friend’s husband speaks , but she eyes him with amusement sparking in her gaze. “ the riverlands have nothing on dornish red , if anything the reach is the only place comparable. ” and she doesn’t speak up for the south for any reason other than never finding a worthwhile wine until she’d had it.
open starter | @thronesstarters
for kaegan, weddings were just a reason to eat, drink, and possibly get into a little frivolous trouble. though for now he had enjoyed the second option as him and his wife mingled on their own for a while. ❝ i must admit their wine rivals that of the riverlands, ❞ he says to the other beside him who has a drink of their own.

She nods, she too agrees, but she knows is different when reila now belongs to the southern royalty and although she is humble narcissa would hate to insult anyone by being too carefree in front of everyone. although in private she intended to treat her like her old friend. “I don’t assume it will be easy, but if there is anyone who is capable of doing it, i have full confidence you will grow into it without doubt.” cissa cheer her on, she knew it was hard to be far away from home, but to have the responsibility reila had would never be something she would experience. narcissa places her hand over hers and moves her slightly and with slight pressure on it she feels the babe kick. “you feel that? is quite estrange but it makes me smile every time i feel them move.”
everyone seemed to think the same of reila , that she would come into this title and status naturally. she didn’t believe them , but it was nice to hear. reila’s feelings about royalty and respect were quite deep rooted , marrying a prince didn’t erase those. she would never believe her marriage made her better than a single soul. “ you sound like your sister , both of your confidences in me means a lot. ” nobody seemed to doubt her , at least to her face , which also helped. she was certain there was a bundle of ladies who wished to see her fail , but reila didn’t quite care about them much at all. a gasp flies out of her lips when she feels the kick , and her eyes dart to cissa’s. “ oh my gosh , what a strong little baby. ”

She was unsure she would’ve enjoyed being pregnant this much had she been married to another, every small action or gesture he had with her simply reassured her that being by his side was were she would always belong. “you’re simply the kindness husband there is,” she manages to blur out before he brings their lips together, humming in agreement. narcissa had been if anything extremely needy with her husbands, in all aspects, and he was just happy to oblige. “well if it counts for anything, i think you look quite ravishing in both.” it did not matter, she simply enjoyed watching him. cleaned up for a party or sweeting in the training grounds, it made no difference to her. “yes, i too.” she ponders on the thought. “however this might be our last trip, together that is, for a while. i don’t believe i will be capable of any more traveling soon enough. i can hardly walk as it is, and this child of you grows heavily as we speak.” she will be happy to sit back and exist by a fire for the rest of her pregnancy, and she imagined her hands would be full once she was to give birth.
tharon’s hands don’t stray from her stomach she seems so concerned about , wondering if he might even feel a kick. “ i only speak the truth , my love. ” comes his easy reply , that beaming smile living on his lips. he didn’t want to stop kissing her either , but if the clansman didn’t pull away he’d never even bother and then they’d both be in trouble. “ ah , i knew you liked that look. ” but how could he think otherwise when he’d swept her off the training grounds all those months ago ? tharon merely liked teasing his wife. “ then we shall not linger long , dornish summers are monstrous. ” he hated the heat , the only benefit was the dornish seemed to master cooling fashions. “ yes , by the time we are home you likely won’t wish to leave again. ” he wouldn’t either , but it’d be entirely her choice. “ everyone already expects us not to leave the eyrie once you’re a bit further along. ” he teases , leaning down and pressing a kiss to her nose. his lips simply couldn’t go long without touching his wife.

lysander’s voice at least had him looking up, though his gaze shifted to the dancing just over his shoulder rather than truly taking lysander in. ‘ what is a night off ? ’ he asked, though selina had given no such order for him to not be able to enjoy himself. after the events that happened in king’s landing, it as hard for him to relax in a space with so many people in it, and certainly had no desires to drink. ‘ no, thank you. you can keep it. ’ jaq nodded to the extra goblet in his hand, before huffing both at the nickname and his words. ‘ i am not pouting. i am … sitting. ’ and pouting, but that was neither here nor there. ‘ i am just watching. ’
lysander sighs and slips into the seat next to jaq , the extra wine glass before him. he’d likely be onto it soon , the plan if it was denied. “ clearly not something you’ve had recently. ” he replies before sipping at his wine. he knew there was no getting jaq to relax , so he didn’t push much for it either. “ you are grumpy , it’s fairly obvious. ” maybe not to all , but the baratheon knew jaqen for years and years , he was fairly good at picking up on how the lord commander felt. “ are you pouting over the festivities in general or has someone upset my skilled little commander ? ” lys was curious , though he was also a bit protective. he didn’t like to see his friend in such low spirits.

aliana chuckled, glancing around them at the finery and general happiness around them, such a stark contrast to how highgarden had been in those last few weeks. ‘ i hope the martells will always allow us in both sunspear and hellgate, though it will be up to you, my sweet, to convince them of a trade route. ’ there were many things that ali wished to help zara with when she was eventually crowned as queen, but until then she wanted her to become used to the idea of being the one to make things happen if she desired it and felt it would be beneficial to the islands.
she couldn’t deny how much she missed her mother , even if zara didn’t voice it. she wasn’t always the best with those things , she’d never even been away this long in her life. much less without a parent. “ i can’t imagine doing something to insult them so long as father stays behaved. ” she had not missed him , the man surprised her recently but it did not solve the issues she’d had since childhood. growing up with so much pressure on your shoulders stifled so much for the young princess , and while she was free of that now a different world of expectations rested on her shoulders and her head after being named the crown princess.

Hehad to fight his need to roll his eyes, mostly to prevent the woman from smacking him senseless, but also to avoid an unpleasant scene in the middle of the gardens. it was truly impressive how long they had lived under the same roof and survived. him, if anything, for he would never do anything to harm vareena, however he was convinced that she would kill him in his sleep if she ever had the chance too. to obtain peace that was. “no one is accusing you of such things, you simply take everything i say and turn it into the worst meaning possible. that is more a habit of yours than a responsability of mine. lady tyrell.” he says as he clenches his jaw, every second becomes harder to keep his cool. mazhar groans when vareena send elif away, knowing well she was the only true buffer between the two coparents who could not get along to save their lives. as she snaps he too turns towards her with annoyance, like a child that is about to get scolded for the fifth time that day. “married you? for what? so you could’ve killed me in my sleep with far more easy? yeah i’ll pass.” he sighs before he mumbles under his breath. “besides there would be no siblings for her then for sure.”
storm’s end was truly that with the pair of them , a raging storm that never ended. the only peace she found away from elif was with myranda or painting , and only that worked so much. inevitably when she crossed paths with mazhar they had something to argue about , just like when they were young. the only time they’d gotten along was well before they’d slept together. the worst part was she couldn’t even have her own fun with someone in storm’s end , all seemed to think she was off limits. it only made her more irritable. “ oh i’m the dramatic one ? only me ? of course , mazhar , because you’re absolutely perfect. ” with elif gone her voice drips with every ounce of sarcasm and venom the rose possesses , her thorns well on display. they always were around mazhar , he seemed to know how to find them with a single word. deep down she knows she should probably be a bit more relaxed , but vareena hated travel , she hated being away from home , she hadn’t been naked with a person in months , and mazhar alone could annoy her without all of those things added on top. “ i don’t need to be married to you to kill you , mazhar. ” she replies instantly , but a clear shocked expression slips across her face as she looks upon his when his quieter words register in her head. “ you’re telling me you’d never stray ? we both know better than that. ” and perhaps her own dark view of him forbade her from seeing otherwise , but part of why vareena never wished to marry him was because she expected him to be unfaithful. and the tyrell refused to be in a relationship like that.

asha chuckles, head shaking. she knows zara is playful with her words, she knows zara knows she knows. never, in all of their years of friendship, did asha ever wonder if zara would grow tired of her. if she can enjoy her company when asha never holds back, then that means the most. “i would not leave you for anything, not permanently.” there’s no need to say it but there is a want. “that is what i like to hear.” asha bites her lip, mischief all over her expression. “we should find a shallow pool, enjoy refreshing water. this is dorne, after all, i doubt they will mind it.” and if they do, then that’s their problem.
there were many reasons asha was stuck with the princess , the primary being she would never truly let go of her friend. they could live a wold apart and zara would find a way to never lose touch. thankfully , she couldn’t imagine asha ever wishing to be that far. “ i’d be quite devastated if you did , who would be a bad influence on me then ? ” she teases , knowing full well while she may be a bit more behaved than asha the blacktyde hardly had to try much to influence the princess. “ swimming ? only if we do it without the dresses , i’m too fond of this one to ruin it just yet. ” and if they were caught perhaps the scandal would be bad , but who could truly judge them for long ? most only saw them as pirates.

niamh had not known how news of the betrothal would be received in the iron islands, but she had hoped much better than it had in the vale. the smile on zara’s face made her hopeful, an answering smile forming�� on her lips. ‘ thank you, your highness, ’ niamh voiced before dipping down into a polite curtsy. ‘ you look absolutely wonderful, as well. have you been enjoying yourself ? dorne seems to be nothing like highgarden. ’
she hated secrets , and truly wished the news of her brother’s betrothal was more known , but zara played her part and obediently did not yell her reply. “ we’re to be sisters , please don’t bother with formalities. you can call me zara. ” her voice is soft , but firm. zaralinia hadn’t been too fond of people using her title or bowing to her in the first place , much less someone she saw as family. “ thank you. ” she was overly fond of her own dress. “ i’ve loved every second in dorne , while the islands will always be my home , i wish to see as many places as i can before i settle. and how have you been ? ”

He does not move, simply allows her to snake her arms around him and in his hair, but he watches her every move carefully. amusement in his eyes, and that mischievous grin he was so commonly known for. “flattery will take you far, reila.” he clears his throat trying to remind himself they are in public and not at home, here he was force to behave and try to survive his wife advantages. she quite enjoyed teasing him it seemed. “you know i am incapable of deny you anything, lady targaryen. it is almost unfair for you to try to seduce me in a room full of people, don’t you think?” he whispers, leaning down so his mouth is at her ear. “or perhaps that is what you want, perhaps i should find a secluded corner and oblige.” he then stands tall, scanning the room before returning his gaze to hers. “if you want to stay in doors and play dress up i will not oppose, however if you want me to keep my hair lets be more serious, sweetheart.”
truly someone probably took bets on how long they’d last at this reception , and with reila pressed against her husband she questioned her own choices. and she’d started the night trying to behave. “ will it ? i’ll have to be sure to compliment my handsome prince more often then. ” but her voice is dripping with her teasing tone , playful little smirk on her lips but a devious little spark in her eyes. perhaps wearing a dress so revealing only aided in her desires to be out of it. a shiver travels her spine when his voice finds her ear , and she should care how they look but reila does not. “ i haven’t done a thing , my prince. ” but her voice is far from innocent , and the new princess knows it. but his suggestion only sends goosebumps across her skin , and she bites her lip to hold back her real response. “ we have to behave for a little bit , at least. ” it was their first big event as a couple , she assumed they had no choice. “ but you would be so cute. ” she says with a laugh , “ though i suppose i can’t have people teasing you and making you irritable when that is my job. ” and if he saw her run off to hug lira and jeyne earlier in the night he likely would be just that.
