Warnings: Violence
Pairings: Jacaerys Velaryon x oc
1.15
When you enter the dimly lit throne room, you see your mother sitting on the throne. Itâs not until you get closer to her that you realize what sheâs holding onto so tightlyâa toy that was one of Lucery's favorites, which he gave to Gaemon to play with when he was older.
âMother?â
Meeting your gaze, she stands tall; her eyes are glassy with unshed tears. She places the toys on the throne, then twists the rings in her fingers. âI am the queen of the seven kingdoms,â she says to herself more than you. âI suppose that will be the last time I ever sit upon this throne, as you are the new princess of Dragonstone.â
âAnd Jacaerys, its prince.â
Your mother's gaze is full of adoration as she leans down to press a kiss to your forehead. âIt belongs to both of you, sweet girl. Not only is Jacaerys the realm's future king, but you're its queen.â
âNot for some time,â you squeeze her hand. âWe have much to learn from you and Daemon. You have a long reign ahead of my queen.â
âIâm Vaoreznuni,â she whispers. âI should never have allowed you to be married to Aegon.â
âDonâtââ
âWe donât know what the gods hold in store for us in the future; I need to say this in case I donât get the chance to.â
Your lower lip trembles at the thought of losing her.
âOnce upon a time, me and Alicent were good friends, and I was foolish to think a marriage between our children would help mend the bridges and solidify an alliance between two halves of the same family. But if I had known how cruelly they would have treated you, I would never have allowed it.â
âAegon is your half brother; you had no reason to suspect he would have turned into the person he is.â
âIt was foolish for me to think Alicent wouldnât pour honey into my siblings' ears. It should have always been Jacaerys.â In the moonlight, her fallen tears glisten. âI ask for your forgiveness, daughter, for subjecting you to years of torment at the hands of the greens.â
âNo, I will not give you forgiveness, mother, because you do require it. None of the things that were done to me were in your hands; the only people who need to pay are the usurper and the dowager queen.â
âAnd pay they shall, sweet girl.â
â
âSoon as the war is over, we can bring our children home.â Jacaerys fingers tremble as he braids your hair in preparation for battle. One of your ladies could have done it but he insisted. It had taken Jace a couple of attempts to make sure your hair was tight enough that it wouldnât fall out, but he had now gotten the hang of it. Nervously, he says, âPerhaps our daughters will let me braid their hair.â
It hurts to be away from your sweet babies.
âWe will see them soon,â you reassure him. âThe green army thinks of me as nothing other than a silly girl; they will fall right into our trap.â
Jace presses a kiss to the back of your shoulder and says, âThey couldnât be more wrong. One day they will sing songs of your beauty and bravery.â
You tilt your head to meet his gaze and smile. âCareful husband, any more compliments, and we may end up creating a sixth child instead of defeating our enemies.â
âDaemon will be our last babe for some time; I will not allow you to become sick again by falling pregnant again so soon.â
You toy with the ring on your fingers. Your new quarters had no trace of Targaryen or Velaryon heritage yet, and no evidence of your five children. âI wonder how big he has grown. Iâve written to Clara to ask how she and the children are, but Iâve not heard back yet.â
âShe will have her hands full running around after our brood.â
Usually, youâd sing in high valyrian to your newborns, and it left a void knowing that you were missing out on such precious moments. Daemon wouldnât even recognise the sound of your voice when you returned to Winterfell.
Jace finishes off the braid and steps back.
Seeing Jacaerys dressed for battle made your heart flutter. He looks so handsomeâa warrior, a dragon rider, a true Targaryen prince. Youâre so caught up in staring into his dark eyes that it takes you a moment to hear the commotion going on outside the bedchamber.
He offers you his hand and says, âWe should go.â
â
Soaring above the greenâs army base, Viserion screeches loudly, alerting them to the immediate danger of a dragon. You watch as the men scurry to grab hold of weapons as Viserion lowers to the ground, not too far from where the camp is based.
It doesnât take long for Ser Criston to come galloping out of the tree line on the back of his horse, both wearing armor covered by green fabric with a golden three-headed dragon sigil.
Disgusting.
Ten knights follow closely behind, but you suspect they are deliberately staying out of your line of sight. You climb down and walk towards the knight, he seems surprised by your actions.
âLyarra.â
âCriston.â
Viserion roars loudly, causing some of the knights to hesitantly raise their swords. The bite of steel is sharp against your arm, and a trickle of blood spills from where the sword has nipped your skin. âWhy my arm and not my throat, kingmaker?â
Criston narrows his eyes. âThe king has ordered for you to be kept alive and your face to remain unmarked.â
âHmm.â
âYou were a fool to come alone.â
In the blink of an eye, the smell of smoke fills the air, and the ground vibrates as a large part of the Greenâs Army retreats on horseback. Criston lowers his swords and spins around, watching the men he was leading abandon him. Among the smoke and ash, Vermax appears, his olive scales and pale orange wing membranes darkened with soot.
âIâm no fool, Ser Criston, and not alone.â The two dragons roar and breathe fire at the same time, burning the tents and supplies of the green army. âI once said if you ever touched me again, Iâd feed you to Viserion.â
Criston turns and gives you a murderous glare.
âBut Iâve since changed my mind. I wouldnât feed something so poisonous to my beloved dragon.â
You back away as a shadow begins to overtake the spot where you just stood as the ill-tempered dragon looms closer. Jacaerys holds his head high. âDracarys, Vermax.â
The kingmaker is engulfed in flames.
Screams fill the air of men trying to flee and put as much distance between themselves and the dragons as possible.
Viserion lowers himself so you can mount him, and when he stands tall again, you are able to fully view Jacaerys. He had been struck with three arrows; his armor had protected him from two, but one of them had struck him in the thigh.
He attempts to soothe your fear. âI am fine, dear wife; now letâs go join our mother in taking the king's landing back.â
Prince Daemon and your mother had flown over the capital and were circling above Aegonâs high hill. Syrax would only land when it was safe to do so. Your grandsireâs fleet would be arriving at the east end of Blackwater Bay. While the dragon twins held fort at Dragonstone, where your youngest siblings remain, Lady Baela would keep watch of the island on the back of Moondancer, while Lady Rhaena would run the council inside.
Vermax and Viserion take to the sky, breathing fire as they fly in the direction of the red keep.
Sorry â Vaoreznuni

of flame and flesh
pairing: jacaerys velaryon x elaenya targaryen (oc)
trope(s): childhood friends to strangers to lovers, arranged marriage, he fell first but she fell harder, misunderstanding
warning(s): angst, fluff, main character(s) death, violence & blood mentions, mentions of teen pregnancy
rating: pg-13 (no smut, but suggestive themes are mentioned)
summary/snippet: âJacaerys Velaryon had always had his eyes on the youngest Princess of King Viserys Targaryen and Queen Alicent Hightower, Elaenya Targaryen. She always treated him and his brothers with kindness when her elder brothers relentlessly teased them. They were close, in certain aspects. Albeit the Princess having much better things to do than hang out with her nephew, the two still engaged with one another quite frequently. The more time he spent with her as a child, the more he felt for the Princess. Young Jacaerys didn't realize the full weight of his feelings until he was of age and already on Dragonstone, far from King's Landing and essentially Elaenya. Perhaps that is why he was so excited to return to the Red Keep after so many years of being away, disregarding the ill reasons as to why he and his family returned to the palace. He was finally able to see her after so long apart and maybe he would get to speak to her again. Even if it was only a singular word, he'd be content with speaking only a word to her for that one moment meant everything to him. And he'd get his wish, but not in the way he expected.â â snippet from synopsis

Once again it was time the King wanted Lilibet to come for a visit. After her last visit, she stayed for a good four months before going back home. This time Damon didn't mind as much since he was planning to go out and make deals.
Arriving this time, Ser Cole was going to help her to the Queens chambers but luckily Ser Strong approaches them saying Rhaenyra wanted to see her.
"I have direct orders from the Queen."
"I have direct orders from the Princess, who the King gave her permission." Harwin mentions so Lilibet steps closer to him.
Since the last time she was there Rhaenyra told Harwin everything that Lilibet said she heard before running away and that she knew the truth too. And for the remaining time she was there last time she avoided Criston Cole every second in hopes not to bring up him seeing her.
Lilibet quickly follows Harwin to Rhaenyra's chambers leaving Criston Cole alone, "Does the Princess really want to see me?" She asks him.
"The Princess doesn't know that you were coming to visit." He looks back at her.
"Thank you." She lets him know so he nods his head.
Entering the room before he could announce her arrival, Rhaenyra says her name excited since it's been two years since she was here last. "You're finally back. Come meet your new cousin. She smiles.
"What's his name?" Lilibet asks with a smile.
"Joffrey." Rhaenyra tells her.
"Laena is pregnant and is expecting soon." Lilibet tells the news.
"Really? What are you wanting a brother or another sister?" Rhaenyra asks her as she lets her hold the baby.
"I want a baby brother. Laena don't care what the babe will be. I think father would love a boy though." Lilibeth laughs, "I say such a thing because my father me training. I have a bow down very well but I'm working on the sword."
"Your father, my dear uncle, has you practicing with weapons for what?"
"To be able to protect myself. Which I'm fine with because there will be a time when I'll need to." Lilibet explains to her.
"Why don't you go find the King? I'm sure he'll want to see you. Giving the time he's probably watch the boys practice." Rhaenyra takes Joffrey back so Lilibet leaves the room going to find them.
The King was happy to see Lilibet arrived before talking to her and the hand about the boys practicing. Lilibet automatically could see Ser Cole was being biased towards the white hair boys compared to the dark hair boys.
When Harwin started talking to Cole it started a big tiff so Lilibet leaves her uncles side rushing down the steps as Ageon was overpowering Jace.
"Lilibet?" Aemond was surprised to see her as she took the wooden sword out of his hands going over to Aegon hitting the sword out of his hands as she swung hers taking them all by surprise.
Harwin then grabs Aegon moving him away from Jace and Lilibet as she helps him up, "You okay?" She asks him before Harwin and Cole start to fight because he pushes his buttons.
The kids are told to go off and Aegon grabs Lilibet's arm, "Are you insane? Striking your Prince?"
"You were going too far out there. Jace was down crawling away from you. You weren't going to stop so I stopped you." She explains to him as the two stood alone.
"Still striking your Prince. What when the time is right in the future you'll do the same to stop me from taking the throne."
Lilibet can't help but laugh at him, "What is this suddenly? You wanting the throne? Since I can remember, when we were closest, you hated the idea of it. You hated the thought of responsibilities. Now you want to be king?"
"I'm the first born son,"
She cuts him off, "Why does it have to be the son? Where is it written in the rules? Women can rule the seven kingdoms just as well. I stuck you in the yard so women can do anything." She leaves him alone.
When she rejoins Jace and Luke, Jace questions her about why she was so good at disarming Aegon. She tells him the same thing she told his mother about her father wanting her to know how to protect herself.
Lilibet has been staying in her chambers after hearing the Queen and King talking the other day after leaving a council meeting.
Alicent went on about how she would never marry her daughter off to one of Rhaenyra's plain featured sons. Then at least Lilibet had the Targaryen features and if any of her child were to marry, she'd gladly take her for either of her sons.
As she was reading, Jace enters her room alone, "Am I needed?" She puts her book down.
"I'm a bastard. Ser Harwin Strong is my real father." He tells her.
"Jace, I know." She tells him and he just stares at her, "I promised your mother I would never say a thing."
"You knew I was a bastard this whole time?"
Lilibet nods her head, "Did you know I'm also a bastard? Unlike you, I fortunately got my Targaryen genes from my father." She lets him know, "My mother and Father were had an affair. My father didn't even know I existed until my mother died and the King told him about me."
"You don't see me differently for being a bastard?"
"Of course not, Jacaerys. So what your father is Harwin Strong? He's well known and you get his strong features. I had to I'm sorry but I prefer you this way and no other way." She gives him a hug and he hugs her back.
Rhaenyra brings news to her children and Lilibet about how they were leaving for Dragonstone and she could join them or stay with the King. Lilibet of course decides to accompany them not wanting to stay in Kings Landing alone.
By the time they arrived they got a letter telling them of Laena's passing. Laenor was heartbroken by the news and Lilibet was as well. After all she saw her as a mother and she felt worst not being there with her sisters when their mother passed. She couldn't wait till she rejoins them to comfort them since she knew her father wouldn't be much help.

As the daughter of Alicent Hightower you had been fed stories of your older sister and her children, so when you are bethrothed to Jacaerys you arent too sure as to what to expect, and go into your courtship expecting the worse, only to find out you couldn't have been more wrong.

CW: MDI 18+, smut, fluff. p in v, fingering, loss of virginity, oral (f reciving), incest not beta read!
Jacaerys Veleryon x Fem!reader
a/n - no war au
Masterlist
She had been betrothed to Prince Jacearys since they were both children, before most noble children even knew the expectation of one day getting married off and yet since the day of said betrothal, they had not spent a single moment together. Nor had you exchanged a single letter nor a single thought of the other, at least she had not.Â
In all honesty she had simply lived as if he and their impending marriage did not exist, so when he returned for his brother's hearing and for their courtship to officially begin, they were at a complete loss of where to begin, they knew of no common interests, and there familyâs had been pitted against each other their entire lives. Seeing as they had never been close in their youth, nor present much time together, seeing as she had kept to herself or Heleana, and Jacearys having spent most of his time with his brother and hers.
She had always preferred solitude, preferred to keep to her books, painting, and her beloved dragon Gaelithox. Gaelithox perhaps the only being she would spend day after day with willingly.Â
she had hoped he would be similar. Though from what she could remember, he always seemed to find himself surrounded by others, not once does she remember seeing him alone. Perhaps if she had then she would have gotten to know him. But for her crowds were her worst fear, talking to more than one person or anyone was really. But Jacearys was always the centre of attention, with his good looks and charisma, it seemed he never begged for attention, it just always simply found him. She hoped marrying him would not force her to become the same.
How they expected her to one day be queen confused her. With Jacearys as the future king she would have all these responsibilities and have to do everything she hated. Her mother had made sure to tell her that, to start to show her what would be expected of her.
For all she knew it was a scare tactic from her mother, y/n knew her mother hated them, she would call them bastards and would whisper in her ear more and more rumours about her eldest sister and her eldest son.Â
So, when he arrived all she could do was watch him. Scared to start a conversation, and too nervous to make any moves towards him. So she stood from the sidelines as he found himself surrounded by the keeps inhabitants.Â
As she watched him at dinner, following lucerys victory of being declared the future lord of the tides, she very much doubted he would like solitude as much as she did. The few moments where he found himself not in conversation, he almost seemed nervous. She feared he would never understand her fear of crowds, or her hate for balls and feasts. Nor understand what her mother referred to as her quirks. He was loud and charismatic, all traits she lacked. He was drawn to crowds and seemed to thrive at the events she hated. But he seemed to suffer in the moments she loved the moments alone, the quiet moments.
She had been forced to sit away from her usual seat and sit nearer to the centre, a place where all eyes were on her. She sat opposite her eldest sister, Rhaenyra, with Jacearys on one side, and Aegon on the other.Â
Aegon had been making crude jokes all evening, whispering and taunting her. Though she had become extremely talented at ignoring him, it was starting to bug her, and all she wished was to retire to bed.Â
Luckily, he seemed to be the only one interested in her, until Rhaenyra decided to start a conversation with her. She had never really known her eldest sister, having always been stopped by her mother. She remembered when her and Rhaenyra would have bi-weekly garden tea, until her mother found out and banned her from even going near Rhaenrya chambers.
Over the years her mother had told her only the worst about Rhaenyra, and forced her own hatred or mayhap envy of her onto y/n. And yet she only ever seemed to be kind to her when they did interact.Â
âSister?â y/n heard her call out.
âYes princess?â she responded, stuttering from being addressed.Â
âAre you quite alright, you look quite pale?â her face was concerned, as did Jaceaerys when he turned from his seat to face ger at his motherâs words.
âi-â you looked down starting to pull at the skin on your fingers, âi do not find i fit in well in such gatherings, it's just stressâ she spoke, voice shaking as y/n looked down and bringing her fingers to her mouth biting the skin around them.
âWould you like me to escort you back to your chambers?â She heard Jacearys ask in concern.Â
At this her motherâs attention was captured, as she snapped her head around, ending her conversation with her grandsire, in doing so capturing the whole tables attention âwhatâs wrong dearests?â
âi- i would like to retire mother?â y/n almost begged, desperate for the offered reprieve.
âof course Aem-âher mother began, before being interrupted, clearly offering Aemond to escort her to her chambers.Â
âI shall escort her,â Jacearys interrupted, standing from his seat and offering his hand that
she took it nervously. These were the most words either had spoken for each other, at least that she could remember.Â
Walking down the halls of the keep, she found herself in a comfortable silence. Though Jacearys seemed to find it rather uncomfortable as he began to ramble on about gods knows what.
âso i told Luke -â
She hummed, responding to a question she probably heard minutes ago, she hated to admit it but she was seriously struggling to follow whatever he was talking about. The topic of which changed near every second.Â
He stopped walking suddenly, causing her to be pulled back as their arms were still interlinked. He seemed to finally realise he was talking nonsense and had lost her completely âIâm sorry, Iâve been rambling on and you canât even follow a word of what i was saying i-âÂ
âoh no i- i, well yes, but I believe you are just nervous⌠as am ilâ y/n spoke softly.Â
He nodded, âyour right, i- i have been trying to think of anything i know about you, any shared memories and yet i can not find a single thingâ he shook his head, seemingly ashamed.
âoh well⌠we never really talked until today, i always much preferred my own company to that of othersâ
âoh i- really?â he sounded confused as if spending time by himself was beyond him.
âi always found i was always more myself when with others, in fact i find myself nervous when I am alone '' he spoke, slowly making sure not to ramble on once more.
âI suppose I have never found such solace with another person as to feel myself with another personâ you looked down, she too seemed so polar to one another and feared her solitude would always be interrupted once she married him.Â
âI understand that, Luke is the same wayâ he looked at her then, âi hope that i can be the person you find solace in, one day..â he took her hands, stoking them softly, it was always a hard thing for her, touch. Always avoiding it, and only taking hugs to shaking someoneâs hand when she knew social construct dictated she should. And yet with him it was fine it seemed nice almost, something she could get used to, even find solace in.
âI would like thatâ she nodded, and he gave her a sweet smile, relief almost washing over his face. He took her arm once more and led her back to her chambers, this time instead of rambling, he simply asked her questions about herself, and for once she happily answered them.
The next day she was awoken to the sound of rapped knocks on her door. Though she normally slept in, it was still rather early for such a thing. Opening the door she saw Jacaerys standing with a bouquet of flowers, more specifically peonies, a flower that you would often find embroidered on several of her dresses.Â
âPrince-â
âJaceâ he interrupted â please call me Jace, we are to be a married soon it is only rightâÂ
âJaceâ she said slowly, getting used to the informality she lacked with even her own family , âwhat are you doing here so early?âÂ
âEarly?â he laughed, as if if the idea that nine in the morning could ever be considered early, âi suppose it could beâ
âWhy are you here?â She asked, almost irritated.
âSorry,â he spoke, reaching his arm out to present her with the peonies'' i simply came to ask if we may break our fast, with the hope you had yet to eat and yet it seems i woke you,â he shook his head âi apologise, i am used to waking up early for training. I should have thought you may have preferred to sleep inâ he looked down nervously.
Sniffing the flowers, she moved into her room, leaving the door agar as an invitation for Jace to come in. âI would like thatâ she nodded, âThough this is still rather early for me, so i shall need to call my maids to help me dress and prepare our breakfastâ
âearly?â He again asked, âwhat time do you normally wake?â
âMostly before noon, but not before 10,â you looked up with a small smile, âi find i can sleep the days away if allowed, it is one of the few things i can never seem to get enough offâ
He laughed, the nerves leaving him slightly. âI find i am always awake by eight, at the latest, sadly i do not possess the same skill to sleep in, a skill i am much jealous of.â He smiled, â i shall have the guards fetch your maids and order breakfast, and perhaps tomorrow we may share lunch insteadâÂ
âI would like that,â she nodded.
Their fast was spent with the exchange of shy smiles and timid questions asked, as time went on they grew more comfortable and found their rhythm, and she found the tiredness she felt from talking to others never came.Â
The next moon was perfect, each day she would wake, dress, then Jace would meet her and she broke her fast and he took his second meal. Then they would walk the gardens. After a few days, she confessed how typically she would ride Gaelithox the second she awoke, and soon they found they were going for dragon rides every morning. Vermax and Gaelithox enjoying each other's company. Every second was filled with chatter, and those few that were not, neither felt any awkwardness, just contentment, solace.
They seemed to spend almost every second of every day with each other and yet she not once found it tiring, or wished for a reprieve, she simply wished for more.
There were even days where she wished for no talking and Jace was more than happy to spend the whole day in silence, simply enjoying each other's company, as they went about their own tasks.
She felt as if she was learning everything there was to know about him, through his stories she felt as if she knew his brothers, his family, like she had grown up with them , and not just watching them. She learnt his quirks and he learnt hers. And every day they seemed to learn something new.Â
But today was the first day she would spend without him since his arrival, with her father , the king, asking for Jace to accompany the small council meetings from now on.Â
So she had planned to spend the day alone, resuming her old daily routine even on the days where Jace was not in her company.Â
That was until her mother decided to skip the small council meeting and spend the day with her.
âDo not ever trust them, dearestâ her mother tutted, brushing through her hair. âThey only wish for you and he to grow close so when the time comes you are on their side-â
She had tried to tune her out, but the instant comments answered messing with her head. She felt as if she was falling in love with Jace and yet they way her mother spoke of him, it was as if he was worse than Aegon, a fact she knew was not true.
âmother!â she finally snapped , shaking her head she pulled away from her mother, âi do not care! Jace shall be my husband and as you have reminded me since the day I first bleed, that my duty is to my husband and his family before my own.â she then whispered to herself âa fact you do not follow yourselfâ continuing she said â so why now when it is the son of the woman you despise, am I to do the opposite?â It was so out of character for her and yet years and years of hearing the words bastard and betrayal and whispers of war, she was finished.Â
She fully pulled away from her mother and stood up, straightening her dress, âthis past moon i have felt more seen and known by Jace than anyone my whole life. My whole life I have detested company, and chatter, and have at any and all attempts avoided events. and now i find the one person i do not detest, and would falsely attend any event he wishes me to, someone i enjoy spending time with, my future husband! You wish to ruin it for me! Do you not want me to be happy?â She nearly yelled, her face turning from the sweet, shy and docile face it had always been had turned angry âyou clearly do not wish for Heleana to have happiness, as clear with her marriage to Aegon at three and ten!â She was steaming, years of biting her younger so as to not gain attention, or do more talking thatâs necessary, bitterness flowed through her.
âdearest i-â her mother started, moving towards and reaching for her to pull her in a hug, only to be met by an instant rejection.
âI simply wish for whatever war you are making up in your head to end, so you can finally allow me the happiness I deserve!â And with that she walked about, only to be met with Jace and Rhaenyra's face as she walked out.Â
Jace chased after her, leaving his mother left to deal with Alicent.
ây/nâ he called out, ây/n stop!â
âNo, I can't,â she said as she continued down the halls, though she did slow down, allowing Jace a chance to catch up with her. âif i stop walking Iâll march right back in there and apologies!â she proclaimed.
âI'm sure you won't, you did the right thing '' Jace spoke, still trying to catch up with her.
âi have bite my tongue my whole life, never expressing my thoughts or opinions, and today i did!â she spoke, as she realised she was walking towards Jaceâs chambers. She didnât even think of where she was going, having stormed out of her own rooms, it seemed that in this past month his room had become a comfort to her.
Finally catching up in time to open the door to his rooms. ây/n you donât have to explain, you didnât do anything, you just spoke up for yourself andâŚfor meâ y/n swear she saw him blush.
âi know it was hard for you, that talking and expressing yourself is something your struggle withâŚbut you stood up for yourself itâs nothing you have to feel bad about itâs something you should be proud ofâ he grabbed her hand and brought it to his lips âand in all honestly i was rather impressedâ
âyou where?â she blushed, stepping one closer.Â
he nodded, â you know me and my mother were coming to your chambers to discuss the weddingâ he said wrapping his arm around her waist. a movement and touch she had now grown to love. â We are to be married in a fortnightâ his face moved closer to her.
âWe are?â she questioned, her breathing getting heavier.Â
he nodded, there faces so close they were sharing their breaths âyes, soon you will be my wife, and i your husband and your mothers silly little rants will have no sway any longerâÂ
she gasped, he leant forward and finally kissed her, it was soft and sweet, leaving them both a blushing mess.Â
The next two weeks moved slowly, filled with wedding planning.Â
Her relationship with her mother was strained, finding most of the planning to be with her eldest sister Rhaenrya and even Heleana more so than her own mother. And the few times she was there she simply sent a glare in their direction and took at every laugh and smile.
She found that she rather enjoyed her sister's company, the two having a few similar interests. Rhaenyra seemed kind and cared for her children a great deal and as a result she did with her too.Â
She knew her mother cared, but watching her mother interact with Rhaenyra highlighted that most of her mothers objections were actually ones of jealousy. She was Jealous of Rhaenyra and more so of Daemon, as he received more glares the more he and Rhaenrya showed affection to one another. So much jealousy that she swear she saw some longing in her gaze whenever she stared at Rhaenrya.
The day before her wedding she finally found herself alone with her mother though from the way her mother barged into her room she knew the conversation the pair were about to have would not be a pleasant one.
âsit down dearestâ she spoke as she herself got comfortable. Doing as her mother bid, she sat beside her. Her mother quickly took her hand in hers, tight enough that even if she were to recoil it would not break her free.Â
âWhen I had this. Conversation with your sister, she already knew some of what was to come, with her Marrying Aegon, and will he loved to taunt her with the gory details for moons before their weddingâ Alicent took a deep breath. âOn the morrow you will be wed, and with that shall come some expectationsâÂ
she nodded, not quite sure what her mother meant. ânot only will you be taking on some of my duties but there is also the expectation of an heirâŚâ she looked at her then, expecting her to interrupt in some way. She stayed quiet, she knew she would have to have children but how the act itself was done was peculiar to her.
Her mother shifted uncomfortably, âonce you are wed the marriage must be consummatedâ she awkwardly grabbed at her hands, âit will be uncomfortable but some pleasure can be found in the actâ she sent her mother peculiar look, causing her mother to cough uncomfortably and once again move to explain âyour husband willâŚinsert himself in you, and spill his seed, allowing a babe to be made, though it can take some time so i shall prey you are lucky and conceive soonâŚâ
she looked down quietly âmother âshe spoke slowly, âAegon is my brother, though he and i arenât close i haveâŚwalked in on him numerous times, time enough to know what sex isâÂ
Her mother was shocked, looking down and shaking her head, âyour brother has no shame-â
âmother, i also have a septa who taught meâ she laughed, Heleana only did not know because she was young mother, i am aware, in fact me and-â she cut herself off not wanting her mother to become more shocked at hearing how her and Jace have already talked of the wedding night.
They were both inexperienced, though Jace had been taken to brothels by Daemon he had never actually done anything, wanting to save himself for his wife. A fact she was most happy about.Â
She loved Jace, she realised. He was everything she did not expect, though he was chatty and loud, he was also kind and sweet, a perfect gentleman. She and him had more in common than not, they both loved to read though Jace found little time to do so, so was more than happy to listen to her ramble on and on about the last book she read. She had shown him how to paint and draw, a skill he, though terrible at, found rather enjoyable, especially when he got the flicking paint at her. She herself had even found she loved a few of his hobbies or well if you can call sword fighting a hobby.Â
she remembered the morning, it was still early in their courtship, the first week in. She and Jace had yet to sleep and yet they could see dawn breaking through the windows in his room. They had spent the whole day and night talking, getting to know each other. âitâs dawn already?â Jace sighed as he moved from his spot on the sofa. she sighed from the movement, missing his warmth.Â
âitâs seems soâ she hummedÂ
âitâll be time for training soon.â he spoke, not necessarily to her.Â
âDo you train alone?âÂ
âHere I do, On Dragonstone Daemon is typically dragging me and Luke out of bed the second the sun begins to rise but here he has no desire to trainâ he looked at her, âwhy donât you join me?â he asked.
âi have never even touched a swordâ she exclaimed, as if the idea was a mad one.
He grinned âexactly, itâll be most entertaining!â
she laughed, âfine, but you must promise to show me your high Valyrian!â y/n declared, he had been complaining how bad his Valyrian was but refused to show her, despite her being fluent and offering to teach him.
He sighed, then a big grin filled his face âvery well, let us teach one another, i teach you in swordsmanship and you teach me high ValyrianâÂ
she laughed âvery well! though i make no promises to these swordplay lessons!â
They met again in the training yard, both in training clothes. She had borrowed hers from Jace and she was sure he was trying to sabotage her. His clothes hung from her in an almost comical way, he himself had laughed as she nearly tripped netting the training yard.
âyou look beautifulâ he said though his eyes were full of mirth as he took in the way his clothes hung from her.
âPerhaps you could have given me some of Luke's clothes insteadâ she sighed, a frown forming her face as she hung her arm up to show just how big his sleeves were compared to her arms.
âNext time we shall!â he declared, stopping his laughter to then pass her a wooden sword âfor now itâs fine.âÂ
The sword was heavier than she was expecting, as shown by how she nearly dropped it.
âdo you do any exercise?â he asked, seeing her near miss with the sword.
she scoffed âno, do i look like someone who does?â she asked bewildered.
he laughed âno i suppose not, and knowing you it doesn't surprise me that you do notâ he took the sword off her âperhaps we should start with some exerciseâ
âwhat?â she asked, she hated doing anything that could be remotely referred to as exercise.Â
âDonât worry, just some light exercise, to build staminaâ he looked at her then, something passing through his eyes. something she had yet to see.Â
He had made her run ten laps, stretch in more easily than she knew possible, And then finally let her hold the sword. âYou know I was hoping you wouldnât take this so seriouslyâ she sighed, hitting the dummy repeatedly. Jace corrects her technique with each hit. âreally?â
âOf course not, when you said it I had hoped we would just be jesting aroundâ she sighed dramatically, before moving to place the sword down on the rack. âI think that this âlessonâ is over.â she started to walk away only for Jace to grab her arm.
âWait!â he said, pulling her back to him gently. âAre you really not enjoying yourself?â he asked with a sad smile on his face.Â
y/n sighed, before a small smile graced her face âno, but perhaps hearing you speak some high Valyrian may make it more joyous.â she spoke, though she was enjoying herself a little, though it would definitely not be a hobby she would be taking up, though watching him practice his swordsmanship, that is a hobby she will be taking up.
âI- really?â he asked, his face unsure, ânyk-e donât Čłdragon ziree s��râ
She laughed, his accent and pronunciation were all over the place, perhaps she was better at swordsmanship after one lesson that he was at high Valyrian after years of lessons, âitâs gaoman daor Čłdragon ziry sČłrÄŤâ
I do not speak it well
âSee what I mean!â he exclaimed, as she continued to laugh.
âoh Jace, gaomagon daor worry nyke sure kesÄ jiĹragon sČłrkta isse daor jÄdaâ she taunted.Â
do not worry Iâm sure you will get better in no time
âI have no idea what you just said '' he sighed, shaking his head, âbut at least i can hold a sword properlyâ he taunted back to her.
âHey! It's my first lesson, have you been learning high Valyrian for how long?â she questioned, a gleam in her eyes.
âhÄre jÄdriâ he replied, a smile as he realised he had pronounced it correctly
Three years
She hummed, beginning to circle him, âhÄre jÄdri? funny seeing hae heleanas riĂąar Čłdragon sČłrkta eglie valyrain than ao se issi balrey hÄre pĹntÄlaâ
three years? Funny seeing as Heleanas children speak better high Valyrian than you and they are balrey three themselves
âI- well, stop taunting me!â he protested.
âOnly if we can stop this, will I have reached my yearly exercise limit.. For the year!â she joked, dramatically falling, conveniently into his arms.Â
âFine, fine!â he said, âbut you can not mention to anyone about my high Valyrian.â he brought her back to her feet.
âOh please who would i tell? se lo nyke gĹntan, skorkydoso would ao sesÄŤr gÄŤmigon?â she laughed, starting to walk away, only to have Jace chase her back all the way back to her chambers.
and if i did, how would you even know?
It was safe to say she never participated in his training again, but on the odd days she was awake when he went, she found she did in fact enjoy watching him.
It took a few attempts before they found a hobby they both loved equally. Painting. She had been painting for as long as she can remember, Jace however had taken it up about two weeks ago, but seemed to love it as much as she.
âLet's paint each other!â Jace declared, as he saw the paints y/n left out.Â
She hesitated, âhave you ever painted before?â
âNo, but how hard could it be?â She laughed at that, but said nothing.
They sat opposite each other, their art facing only themselves. They gave themselves an hour before they would show each other what they had painted.Â
Jace went first. He seemed so proud of himself. To give him credit it was fairly good, though it looked nothing like her.Â
âIt's good!â she exclaimed, âi like itâ she reached forward to grab it âi shall have it framedâ she hummed. Jace smiled widely at that.
âShow me yours!â he asked, or more declared as he turned the canvas around himself.Â
His face was shocked, mouth wide, âi- wowâ he was at a loss of words. âThis is incredible!â he exclaimed, his face one of awe, âand you said mine was good!, you were lying!â
She laughed, âno-no it is, i promiseâ i grabbed his art then, comparing the two, before throwing his on the floor, âoh please, mine is rubbish, yours is wow! I think it shall become my official portrait!â he exclaimed standing up and walking to the doors with it.Â
âwoah ! where are you going?â she asked standing up to follow him.
âToo show everyoneâ he stated as if it was the obvious answer.
He showed it to everyone he saw, a blushing y/n on his tail.
âMother.â she spoke, back once more in the present, âi trust him, more than anyone and anythingâ at that her mother relaxed, and for the first time in what felt like a long time, she saw a real smile gracing her mothers face.
The day of the wedding came, she had expected nerves and jitters, and yet all she felt was contentment. She knew she was lucky, most brides barely knew their husband before they wed them, and she knew Jace and he knew her. She knew his quirks, his hobbies, and he knew hers. They were polar opposites, and yet they fit so perfectly together. She was excited for this day, and as was he.
The dress she wore was her mothers dress. A white dress with sleeves coming down to her elbow before dropping down to the length of her dress showing a deep red. On her shoulder sat two dragons, dragons she had changed to represent Vermax and Gaelithox. The dragons were joined together and connected in an intricate pattern on her bodice. She wore no jewellery, only a small head piece, woven into the braids on her hair.
âYou look beautifulâ her mother declared. âAre you ready?â
y/n nodded, taking one final look at herself in the mirror, one last time before leaving her room.
The wedding was a blur, it went by so fast and before she knew it, Jace and her were declaring their love and sealing it with a kiss. They exchanged giddy smiles as they left theÂ
sept, their hands never wavering from their grip. The night celebrations went by quickly. The only time they never once left each others sides. It was the first event y/n ever truly enjoyed, they had danced four times that night, feasted to their heart's content, and enjoyed the first few hours of being newlyweds.Â
Then it was time for the bedding. She had never been more grateful than when Jace shouted at the men attempting to drag her away, and he himself picking her up and taking her to their now shared chambers.Â
âI am sorry for that.â he spoke, taking her hand in his, âI had made it clear we would not have a bedding, but -â
âAegon had other plans' ' she interrupted, âdo not worry, it's just who he is' ' she laughed.
For the first time in weeks the silence between them was awkward. Both knowing what was to come, but not how to start.
After a few moments Jace finally moved forward, he reached for her slowly, one had wrapping around her waist, the other reaching up to caress her face. They both looked at each other shyly, before Jace moved in closer, his lips capturing hers. It was soft and slow.
His lips still joined with hers they moved further into the room, his hand moving from her waist to her back, reaching and slowly unlacing the binds of her bodice.
âAre you okay with this?â he asked, breaking away from her lips.
She nodded, âyes.â Â As she slowly reached to pull of her dress, leaving her in just her chemise.
Jace groaned his pants tightening, he reached forward once again capturing her lips in his.
 They slowly moved towards the bed, her hands reaching towards his clothes, slowly taking them off and leaving him in his small clothes.
There lips breaking apart, they both took each other in, before finally lying on the bed. Jace continued to kiss her slowly moving from her lips to her neck, his hands reaching down to her should and moving the straps of her chemise down, revealing her breasts.
âgodsâ he groaned, âyouâre so beautifulâ he said as he moved down to kiss her breasts. Slowly moving down her body, removing her chemise as he did, leaving her bare beneath him.
He was level with her heat, he had heard of kissing there and the thought of tasting her in such a way made a groan escape him. âCan I?â he begged, unsure of what he meant y/n nodded.
Jace dived in, giving a cautious lick through her folds, he groaned at the taste and quickly went back licking and tasting like a starved man. She herself was moaning in pleasure, her hands clutching the back of his neck, tightening when he finally found her bud.
Releasing the reaction form touching the small bud of nerves, he made sure to focus his efforts on it, sucking it into his mouth, and bringing his fingers up to her entrance, beginning to circle her juices and slowly tease his way into her.
Tensing at the feeling of the intrusion, she gripped further onto him, and started to move away. With his spare hand he gripped onto her and pulled her back to him. His finger now pully in he instead started to focus his intentions of pumping them in and out of her. Causing her to start moaning once again in pleasure, even more so when his second and third finger entered her. Soon she was reaching her peak.
He slowly backed away from her, pulling down his small clothes to revel his hard, thick long length.
âgodsâ they both groaned at the sight of the others naked body. He slowly crawled back onto the bed, his body covering hers. He once again took her lips with his, in a passionate and heated kiss, his legs slowly parted hers as he positioned himself at her entrance.
âAre you sure?â he once again asked, caressing her face.
She nodded, covering the hand on her face with her own and reaching forward to kiss him again, âyesâ she consented.
He nodded, kissing her once more as he slowly entered her.
She groaned at the stretch, feeling at slight sting as he slowly entered her. Her face contorted in quick discomfort, but quickly faded as he settled himself fully inside her, allowing her time to adjust.
âgods, you feel amazingâ he groaned, moving his head to her neck. âcan I move?â he groaned, near begged.
âyesâ she said, and he wasted no time, slowly pumping in and out of her. Slowly the discomfort faded and all she could find was pure pleasure.
Moving in and out of her, Jace was moaning, kissing her neck with each thrust, he had never felt such pleasure as he did in this moment.
Slowly picking up the pace, he soon found that sweet spot inside her, that turned her into a moaning mess. Wrapping her arms around his neck she was soon grinding her hips against his, chasing her peak, and he was soon reaching one of his own, spilling his seed inside of her.
Slowly pulling from her, her moved to wrap his arms around her waist and pull her towards him, he kissed her slowly and whispered, âI love youâ. In that moment she felt what could only be described as solace.
That night, they did not sleep a wink, nor would they in the moons that followed. Their marriage was a harmonious one, one of love and joy. And when the king finally passed, and Rhaenrya was queen, there was no division of factions of house Targaryen, she liked to think that their marriage has helped branch the units, and make them once more a family.
Even more so when nine moons after their wedding she birthed their first child.

modern!jacaerys x f!reader âââ smut, vanilla sex, jace is a mama's boy, a lil english major who's serious about his academics, basically a goodie two shoes. reader is an adventurous cheerleader babe. p in v, love making as secretly as possible with his family at home (i know theyre freaky). not fully edited.
summary: finals season has arrived and jacaerys is worried about his championship game and passing his classes. he just did not think you would change the way of how studying could even work.
jace nation tag list: @jacaerysgf @star611 @jules420 @intheheartoftheking @gracexthoughts @astrxq @reyndaisy @hxtd @smurfelle @nanaldy @valdezthg @littleblackcatinwonderland @nixtape-foryou @starrgurl46 @ethereal-athalia @stelleduarte @canyonmoon-2 @ambrosia-v-black @chuuritoz @melsunshine @frombloodandfire
âGet it together jace,â Jacaerys muttered, his hands running through his already messy hair. His fingers tapped rapidly through the page of his text book as if the answers were going to appear magically to him.
âJace. Mom has been calling you to eat for the past fifteen minutes, you know she hates lateness,â Lucerys stood by the doorway of his brotherâs room a slight smirk on his face as he looked at his brother who now slammed his face onto the book.
âGeesh⌠and I thought I was terrible, youâre even worse,â Luke joked. Jacaerys only moved his head to peek at his younger brother before he threw a pen at his head.
âGet out Luke, tell Mom I am no-â
âTell me what exactly? If you think I am going to let you go to sleep without eating, you are absolutely wrong my dear,â Rhaenyra crossed her arms, a stern look on her face that had Jacaerys scrambling on his feet to meet her.
âSorry mother,â he muttered, he scratched his neck before he twirled his fingers around, Rhaenyra sighed. She entered the room with soft steps, Jacaerys had now stopped his nervous ticks the moment he felt his motherâs touch.
âYou got this my sweet boy. Youâre the bravest, and smartest boy, I have raised you well. I know you will finish strongly, or am I wrong?â
Jacaerys widened his eyes, âNo mother.â
Rhaenyra ran her fingers through the mess of hair, she smiled softly, âNow, wash up. Your brothers are waiting for you, Daemon bought that movie you and Luke begged him to buy.â
Luke exclaimed excitedly before he ran down the hall to the dining room, Rhaenyra and Jace heard him thanking their step-father over and over. They chuckled together.
As Jace scored the winning goal, the team swallowed him onto the ground, he groaned. He only wanted to see the one person that motivated him, that came to every single one of his games to cheer for him loudly that he felt no trophy could ever top the love he had for you.
The crowd cheered loudly, Jace managed to escape the sweaty bodies of his teammates before he was wrapped with a warmth so familiar, he knew it was you. He caught you in his arms the moment you ran up to him, your smile making him feel weak in the legs. He would bring the world and the stars for you if youâd ask.
Your pom-poms covered both of your faces as you leaned down to kiss him, since you had jumped on him, your legs wrapped around his waist - he held you up, his arms tightly holding your thighs, pressing you close. Your rosy lipstick now stained his already plump lips.
He groaned in satisfaction, you pulled away, giggling when he chased you for another kiss, âCongratulations Targaryen, youâre now going to the championship game.â
He smiled stupidly, from where he was looking at you, you looked like a bright star, your hair was held back by a headband that matched the color of his jersey. Your eyes covered in shiny glitter that he helped put on before the game because according to him, he wanted to try to put some on you. You were beautiful, and all his.
He leaned up to kiss you deeply, feeling your fingers dig deep into the slightly wet curls of his. The world vanished then, and Jacaerys wanted you more than ever, but it was not a place where he wanted to devour you.
You pulled away, he groaned again in annoyance, âHold on tiger. You stink. And your mother and brothers are waiting to celebrate your win.â
He opened his eyes to see you with a teasing face, he narrowed his eyes in suspicion, you had a cunning smile. He did not want to question it yet so he placed you back onto the floor, without saying a word he took your hand interlacing it with his, both of you meeting his overly excited family that covered him in confetti. He thought life couldnât get any more better than this.
His bed bounced as pushed his glasses upward, stopping them from slipping off his nose. He knew you were with him, but he paid you no mind as he mumbled the words from the slides to himself.
You leaned your head onto his shoulder, watching him study the same presentation over and over. You sat beside him, quietly biting onto your cinnamon roll that Rhaenyra begged you to take to Jace as well since she knew he was bound to skip dinner.
âJace.â
âHm,â he nodded his head slightly, letting you know he was listening to you. He truly was not though, he had a pen between his teeth biting on the top cap. You sighed.
âJace.â
âMm,â again he responded nonchalantly.
You rolled your eyes having enough. You took the laptop from him, shutting it close as you tossed it lightly onto his bedside table. You watched him widened his eyes, his arms reached to fight you but you beat him as you pushed him down onto the bed, sitting right on top.
His glasses moved upward, touching his forehead just a bit. You chuckled as he groaned in annoyance nonetheless his hands moved to hold your waist.
âY/n⌠I need to study⌠you know I have to get good scores on the finals to keep my spot as top student.â
You smiled softly, your hands trailing down his chest to the toned body of his. His eyes fluttered, he enjoyed you touching him, he squirmed under you feeling his erection grow. He was shy to admit that even the slightest things you would do made him excited.
âYou studied enough. You and I both know youâll pass. Just how we also know, you will win the game,â Your fingers reached up to his face, pulling his glasses back to its original spot, you had always loved him with glasses. He huffed softly, his eyes moving upwards to try and avoid your strong gaze that had him digging his fingers softly into your waist.
âYouâre only human jace, give yourself breaks hm?â
âI hate when youâre right,â he mumbled.
You laughed, tapping his nose lightly. His eyes moved back to your face, you leaned down to place a soft kiss on his nose you felt him breathe in deeply. He moved his head to reach your lips where he captured your warm lips with his.
You sighed into his mouth, enjoying the way his tongue licked your bottom lip. Your lips parted giving him access to taste you, he moaned when he got a taste of the sweetness from the bun you ate.
With his teeth, he pulled your bottom lip, sucking it lightly, you let him grinding your hip against his hardening erection hidden under the sweatpants you wanted to get rid of.
You rubbed harder, your panties now soaked from the need of wanting him. He let go of your lips as he let out a whimper. You sat on top still rubbing, twisting your hips in small circles to entice him. With half lidded eyes and small drool on the corner of his lips you wanted him so much more than before.
âShh. Iâve got you,â you whispered, you ran your tongue down his neck finding a spot only you knew ruined him.
Right above his ear, in between his collarbone you placed a kiss and then you sucked hard, enjoying the small whimpers he let out. His hands working fast but clumsily pulling and tugging the straps of your sundress. He needed you, now.
He swallowed, âPlease my love. Off,â he tugged the straps hard.
You heard a tear of fabric between your soft kisses that you left on his neck, you breathed in a laugh. You pushed him hard onto the bed, he grunted, you leaned back on your feet enjoying the flush on his cheeks, the curls surrounding him making him look angelic.
The sun was barely going down, and with the little sunlight still left, it touched Jaceâs skin, his bright brown eyes covered by his slight fogged glasses from the amount of heavy breathing he was doing.
âY/n⌠pleaseâŚâ he whispered, licking his lips watching you slowly tug down the straps, pulling down your bra as well. You watched him gasp slightly, taking in the view of the delicacy of your skin.
âSeven hells⌠how did I get so lucky?â
You hummed, getting rid of your dress completely, only sitting on top of him in your lace panties. He watched you hungrily, ready to bounce on you but held back, he wanted to take his time with you. Kiss all the little freckles on your body, find new spots that made you whisper his name as in a prayer.
He wanted to find all the new things that made your body quiver, flourish in his hands, his mouth. His mouth suddenly felt dry, he wanted to taste you so bad.
You smiled wickedly, your hand reached forward, grabbing his index cards he had also written to study. You looked through them fast before you tossed them somewhere on the floor.
Leaning forward, you grabbed his hands, placing them on your breasts, sighing blissfully when out of habit his thumbs flicked your now perked buds.
âEvery right answer you give me, youâll be allowed to touch me,â you whispered, smiling even wider when you felt him twitch underneath you.
Jacaerys was competitive, and he wanted to have you so badly but he also wanted to prove to you he was smart. He thought this was better than any study group he ever had, his fingers twitched against your breasts, wanting them deep in your cunt just to watch you bend in an angelic position, all because of him.
For once, he was greedy, he wanted to watch you have power over him. He licked his lips again, anticipating every moment that will occur. He thanked the old gods and new for gifting him you.
âFirst question,â you sat with his hands still on your breasts, enjoying the lust on your boyfriendâs eyes, the way sweat started to form on his forehead, the twitch of his eyebrow as he tried to read you, to the way his lips parted, his breaths coming out in sharp huffs.
âName all the kings we had, from first king to now.â
Jacaerys struggled, he regretted now the position he was in, he couldnât focus having you bare only in silk panties, your skin glowing, hair loose and curled at the tips. He just wanted to make love to you. He held his breath, his hands shaking, noticing, you smirked.
âUh.. UmâŚâ he cleared his throat, his eyebrows slightly scrunched together as he tried to think, âAegon, the conqueror,â you hummed.
You let his hand go down the middle of your breast, to your stomach, hearing his breath hitched you stopped.
âI uh⌠Aenys,â he stuttered, finding it hard to stay still.
Again, you moved his hand to your navel, letting go of his hand as you waited for the rest of the answer to come out of your struggling boyfriend who remained obedient.
âMaegor, Jaehaerys, ViserysâŚâ his voice straining.
You smiled, âGood job my love. See? The answers are flowing out of you.â You stood up then, he sat up quickly, his body in heat running with adrenaline from wanting you. Your fingers pulled the bands of your panties to slide them off your legs. Jacaerysâ mouth fell slack.
You tapped your finger to your chin as in thought, you moved as you spoke to sit on his lap, your legs spread on either side of his own. âAh.. why is the reason that dragons are the symbol of the Targaryen family?â
Jacaerys tried, he truly did want to show off his intelligence but he couldnât concentrate anymore. How could he concentrate when he had you on his lap, nude, your curls falling onto your shoulders giving you a glow so beautiful he was breathless.
âSeven hells y/n, I canât do this,â he moved so quick you were startled that you ended up bumping your head onto his headboard. His eyes panicked, the lust from his eyes softening, âBaby, baby i am so sorry!â
You laughed loudly, taking his face into your hands where you pulled him to give him a kiss. He moaned into your mouth, his hands pulling your hands above your head, interlocking it with his.
âYou didnât answer the question Jacaerys,â you muttered into his lips. He moaned in annoyance over the fact you kept pulling away from him when all he wanted was to shower you with love.
âNo offense, but you talk a lot my love, I just want you,â Jace fluttered his eyes, looking down on you his light brown eyes shadowed with a mischievous glint that had you swallow.
âYeah?â
He nodded, his glasses sliding down more, you pushed them up again, his curls were a mess and damn⌠he looked ethereal. He was all yours, the pride in your chest swelled as as the love you felt for him did too.
You both smiled at each other before he kissed you again, his lips grazing your cheeks, eyebrows, forehead, everywhere he could touch, you giggled. Jacaerys felt like he could fly, the need to feel you, to connect with you felt heavy on his head.
He took a moment to observe the environment, he was quick, in a moment he heard everything, the laughter of his younger brothers, the sound of his mother talking over the phone. His cheeks blossoming crimson, the idea of having you while his family were so close bought an excitement to him.
He nibbled on your neck before whispering, âWe have to keep quiet, momâŚâ he paused, feeling embarrassed, âanyone can hear us if weâre loud.â
You smirked, feeling the heat boil, âthen try not to make me scream out,â
Jacaerys pulled away his eyebrows furrowed as if you said something offensive, âOh? If i donât, then I am not deserving of you my angel.â
Everything happened so fast, Jacaerys felt like he only blinked for a second, one second he was tasting you, leaving small marks on your neck then he was under you again, his chest bare, his boxers suddenly feeling hot.
You sat on top again, licking your lips admiring the work you made, a wet kiss on his chest turning red. Jacaerys felt sweat drip from his forehead, he needed to have you, now. But, he knew the reward would soon calm if he was patient - though he did not want to wait.
âTell me my love, why are dragons the symbol of your family? If they are myth, why is it symbolic?â
Jacaerys rolled his eyes as his head tilted back, âAre you⌠Are you serious?â he whined, he thought he escaped this.
You tighten your lips together to hold back from laughing, âOh i am serious babe. Now answer, or else.. Iâll go downstairs and play with Joff, iâll ignore you all day.â
Jacaerys for the sake of his bulge feeling like it was ready to explode, tried.
He closed his eyes, scanning memories of the information he studied, âIt was said that Targaryens are closer to the gods due to their faith in old traditions. Dragons are a symbol of power but also peace. Our family-â suddenly he hissed, his eyes rolling to the back of his head.
Your teeth pulled the band of his boxers down, as your handâs massaged the muscular thighs of his, you paused when you heard nothing but hard breathing, âI didnât tell you to stop Jacaerys.â
He whimpered, âDear godsâŚâ he cleared his throat, âOur family symbol being dragons is to remind us of our history, to remind us why helping our people is also building a foundation for a better future, that is why our law firm is uh-â he moaned when he felt your lips kissing up his toned chest.
âOur law firm is the most popular, and is one of the first establishments holding a strong position in justice.â
You stopped, Jacaerys was breathing hard as if he had ran through a marathon, âYou really need to stop overthinking you wonât pass your exams, you are smart.â
Pressing a slight kiss on his lips, you sat up again, âGood job baby,â you moved his shaky hand to your body again, however Jacaerys had other plans, he sat up meeting you face to face.
âYou are the worldâs best person to ever grace us, I am so lucky to have you,â he whispered all the while his fingers grazed the apple of your cheeks, you couldnât avoid the amount of love his eyes held you just needed him. The sexual tension between you was too strong to ignore.
âJace..â
He pushed your hair back, his eyes mapping out the beauty marks on your face. You were so beautiful, he would never once stop repeating it, âI love you, with every ounce of my heart,â and that was when your heart flew out of your chest.
He laid you onto his bed, both of you shaking with need to have each other. His lips traced every bump, every inch of your body until he reached the valley of your breasts. The metal of his glasses making your skin crawl with goosebumps.
âAll mine,â he whispered. His fingers traced the perky buds of your breasts before he took one in his mouth, moaning as if he was having the best dessert - in a way he was. Your body lifted from the bed, mind clouded with him only.
âJace,â you pleaded now, needing him to stop his slow pace, you just needed him inside you. You felt him shudder at the way you said his name.
He pulled back, your eyes shaking in need but Jace was worse, his eyes filled with need, hidden behind those glasses of his he was overwhelmed with the love he had for you.
You felt his bulge nudge your core causing you to tilt your head back, moaning softly, you heard the gasping of your boyfriend who struggled what to do next. He never wanted to rush into things but he needed you, he wanted to explore more of you but he just needed to be inside, to carefully love you and show you.
You made the decision to guide him, you and Jacaerys were not always active, majority of your relationship was very innocent and you didnât complain, simply being in the arms of your boyfriend was enough. Jacaerys only needed you close to feel the love you felt for him as he did you.
He never disrespected you, always showed you respect and love in small and big ways. His family adored you, with his mom already calling you her daughter she never had. Daemon adored your stubbornness, mentioning how you reminded him of his younger days. To Jace, that was enough.
So when you guided him inside of you, feeling the tip of his erection inside you, both of you gasped, holding each other in desperate need of love. He shook in your arms as your legs wrapped around his waist, he didnât move feeling too overwhelmed from your heat.
âtâs okay,â you whispered, your heart full, and as you locked eyes with the one man who you swore your life to, he pushed all the way in, the tears seeping from your eyes.
He held you in his arms tightly, whimpering as you tugged the wet curls of his, pulling out and pushing in with such care that had you breathing out choked sobs from the love you felt. He only prepped small kisses, whispering the love he held for you.
âI love you, I love you,â he whispered into your mouth, his hands wiping the tears from your cheeks, feeling his own pool. Your fingers marked half moons onto his shoulde blades, marking beautiful trails of your love as he pushed into you harder, faster.
You removed his glasses then, finally coming to face his eyes that were scrunched together in concentration and if it was another occasion you wouldâve laughed but you kissed his face holding onto him as your noses bumped into each other clumsily.
âYou feel so g-good,â he muttered, his hand holding onto your right hand, you said nothing as you took him in, feeling the little bubble in your tummy ready to release.
âJ-Jace,â you stuttered, squealing when he finally hit that one spot inside you, âOH! Donât stop⌠donnn-t stop.â
He knew you were close, you held onto his hair tighter, your eyes rolled onto the back of your head as you bent your neck all the way back displaying your entire neck to him. He pushed harder, making it a mission to have you see stars, he watched you carefully, hearing how you muttered his name like a prayer.
He was so close, but he held back, his cheeks were warm, as he felt the need to come inside you with just watching you wither in his embrace. All that was heard was the bed squeaking, the headboard of his bed slamming against the wall, and as much as he wanted to keep it quiet, he couldnât. He just needed you.
âMy pretty angel, all mine,â he whispered again, he had let go of your hand reaching down on your sensitive bud where he rubbed in circles, you moaned loudly and he reacted so fast he covered your mouth with his as he swallowed your slight screams.
He felt the stutter of your hips and the shocks that your body was going through, and suddenly he felt the tightness of your warmth wrapping him hard that his chest felt on fire.
He closed his eyes allowing the pleasure to sweep him out of the world, with one last push he allowed to come inside you hearing you sigh in bliss, your body still shaking, the tears dry on your cheeks.
You held Jace against you, brushing his hair back, hearing him try to level his breathing back to normal. You did not want him to pull out of you but you needed to pee.
He kissed your breasts before he slowly pulled out, both of you shuddering, he then kissed you deeply. He said nothing, but neither did you, both of you basking in the love.
You watched as he pulled you into his arms, carrying you into his bathroom, he looked beautiful. You sat in the toilet as he prepared a bath, and took the moment when he went to get you clothes to pee.
When he came back he had a hoodie of his and a pair of boxers for you to wear, you childishly made grabby hands, he chuckled before he pulled you to the bath tub with him.
The silence was comfortable, until a thought hit you, âJace?â
You leaned your head back to look at him, he was smiling with his eyes closed, âYeah?â
âI think.. I saw Lukeâs feet at some point by the door,â
Jace snapped his eyes open in a panic, one look at you, who looked at him with your own set of eyes that held panic, he laughed loudly, you joined him.
Lucerys did in fact stopped by his brotherâs door, he only wanted to ask if you wanted to play marioâs kart, but that flew out the window when he heard his brotherâs moans. So he sat in the family room with a traumatized look on his face thinking he wished dragons were real so he can ask to get eaten instead.

His Strong Girl (Aemond X Strong! Reader)
Warnings: Brief mentions of bullying and gore, brief mentions of sex, Alicent being a momzilla.
Word Count: 6.5 K
Summary: Aemond has always loved his Strong Girl, she's nearly of age to mary, and he wants her before anyone else can have her.
120 AC
As children, Aemond had always loved her. Even though he knew that he should not. His mother filled his brain with poison, to hate Rhaenyra and all that was part of her, and that included her children. The Strong children, all four of them. It was easy to hate Jace and Luke. They teased him. They found him a pig and called him the second son. They laughed at him and kept them out of their fun. They were kind to the other children in the court, but for reasons he could not understand, he was different. It was so hard on his young brain. He was all that he was supposed to be. H
e could read and write, he had light hair and light eyes. He always prayed at dinner time, and he always wore clean clothes, always had his hair brushed. He did all of his lessons. So what ever could be wrong with him? When Joffrey came along, it was easy to hate him, too. There was no doubt that he would grow into the sculpting hands of his older brothers. As soon as he would talk, he would be name calling and lying too. But when it came to her. Well, it was impossible.Â
Her eyes were warm and kind, muddy brown like her brothers and her father. There was a small distance of age between them, a year and a half, but he could hardly tell. She was smart for her age. She was not puzzled by her lessons, and she listened well, could smile and nod. She cut her own food and lived in her own world. He kept his distance for a long time, whenever the whole family was forced together for weddings and funerals. But slowly, like butter beneath rays of sun, he warmed. He grew calm in her presence and peeled back his layers to be vulnerable.
To meet her in the library when she was in her pyjamas, and to whisper gossip that they had picked up in the halls. He had two sides of him. The side that hated the Strongs, and the side that loved. He was good at making sure they did not cross, that was, until the day his aunt died. He never knew much of her. He knew that she was pretty and powerful and rode the greatest dragon in the world. But he did not cry for her. He only stayed quiet as the respects were paid, and his eyes wandered the mourners for her.Â
She was caught up between her brothers and their cousins. Black looked odd on her. She always wore pink or blue, maybe red, but hardly ever. Despite being half Targaryen, she had no like for the color. She was all about pastels and ruffles and frilliness. He frowned as he watched, and the feet between them felt like miles. As the group looked over to him, he offered an awkward grin, only to be returned with nothing. His heart sunk deeper into his body, and he tried to give her a light wave, to grab her attention.
But there was nothing he could do, and he could feel her slowly slipping from his fingers. Disappointment ate away at him, and he said nothing to her the entire day. And she made no effort to talk to him, either. And so when evening came and he was alone, with no gossip to speak of in the library, and no puzzles to put together, he found himself in the dragon pit. Tiptoeing carefully, listening to the snore of beasts who had survived all of the worlds wars. The scratch of their claws against stone, and finally, the hiss of fire as it nearly caressed his face.Â
The sight of Vhagar was one unmatched, and he moved as though he were being controlled, a mere puppet of the gods as he slowly climbed the scaly creature. He screamed into the wind as it lapped at his hair, and he laughed with joy as they landed with a thump and a roar. All that he was missing in his life was against his palms, and his skin burned with the leather of the saddle. His heart had gone above the clouds, and it hadnât come down, even as his shaky feet hit the floor, a smile bigger than he had ever worn stretched across his face as he moved to scurry away and back to bed.
He would tell his mother in the morning. She would be so proud. But fate had something else brewing for him, and he was met with the sight of his nephews and his cousins. He clung to the words he had heard from his mothers lips, and he threw them mindlessly as fists collided in the air. He did not remember half of it. And he did not know when it would end, gripping blindly at whatever he could find. A stone the size of his foot, lifting it above his head quickly, every one of his cells begging him to go through with the action. It could have only been a second, maybe not even.Â
From the moment he saw the dagger in his little nephews hand, he knew that this was all over. This temporary shot of joy, and it died like a flame to ash as blood soaked his hand. He couldnât hear his scream, but he could feel it deep in his lungs as he smacked against the ground, clawing at it. He shouted profanities as the guards dragged him to the maesters. He stared at his mothers face, and he sat still as he was surrounded by all of his family. And as he prayed for comfort, he was met with only fighting.
Shouting back and forth between his mother and sister, his father was of no help, and every other moment he was stabbed with a needle, his mouth curling at the feeling as his nails scratched against the armrest of the chair. He knew the eye was gone, but seeing it laying broken in a dish like the bad parts of a chicken. It broke him, and he stared at the wall as blood hit the floor, and when he was finally asked where he had heard the words he shouted, he stared at his mother. Her brows were furrowed, a deep crevasse in the middle. Her brown eyes were shining with a mix of sadness and fury, a touch of fear as she looked over at him. He swallowed his pain and spoke a lie.
 âAegon.â He whispered out, and shut his eye for the rest to come. The last thing he remembered of that night was the look on her face, and the way her fingers curled, as if she wished to reach out and touch him, only to be quickly whisked away by Rhaenyra and Daemon. That was the night he decided his mother was right about them. All of them. Even his sweet, Strong girl. Because if she were truly strong, she would have come to him. Despite their orders, she wouldâve comforted him. But instead, he was alone. Alone and scarred.Â
127 AC
When he learned that his sister and her bastard children would be coming to his home, he tried his best to act as normal as he could. He ate his breakfast of pork and eggs, sharpened his sword and trained with Ser Criston. He ignored the groans of his brother, and watched quietly as his sister bounced her babies on her legs. He could almost smile. But he knew exactly how the children came to be. And if Aegon were not his brother, Aemond would have his head on the wall. Dread grew in his stomach as the sun reached its peak, and he hit against Cristonâs sword with the ferocity of a thousand men. With every strike, he thought of the night he lost his eye. He thought of the dagger against his skin, the way he was treated so coldly, and how she had done nothing. And every night after that he felt as though he were frozen, reliving the moment over and over. He could feel the pain in his cheek and forehead with every twitch in his lips.Â
Soon, the Prince promised he would stop smiling altogether, because maybe then, the pain would stop. And so when he saw his nephews, he stared them down, like a wolf to a rabbit. He liked to watch their discomfort, but his gaze, much to his distaste, softened when he caught sight of her behind them. She had grown beautiful with the years that had passed. Her once chubby cheeks were still round and flushed from the cool air, and her brown curls were pulled back by pins. She wore a pink gown that leaned toward purple, a bit dusty in its tone, covered in small swirls and patterns that he could not process from where he stood. His sweet girl. Her eyes were large, and freckles covered her. He didnât remember her ever having freckles before, and it took Cristonâs voice to break him from his trance.
 âYou will be ready for the tourneys in no time, My Prince,â the Knight spoke, to wish he scoffed.Â
âI do not give a shit about tourneys,â He responded, his voice quiet and cold. He did not see the pint in galloping around on a horse, fighting other men and yelling like animals, all for the attention of ladies that were as shallow as a tide pool. No. He would save himself for her, if she would have him. And he was certain she would.
 âNephews, have you come to train?â He asked, his voice louder than before, brows raised. Jace turned to look at his younger brother, and their faces paled. They were afraid, and the thought made Aemondâs heart fill with joy. He threw his sword to the dirt for his men to pick up later.Â
âAnd what of you, niece?â He asked, turning his head to look at her. Jace moved his shoulder to create a wall between them, but it did nothing for her curious eyes. She simply stood on her tiptoes, looked at him, and smiled. The sight brought a smirk to his lips, and when he walked to his chambers, he did so with a newfound confidence. He was quick to change into his outfit for the evening, one that covered every inch of his body, not even his wrists exposed. It made him feel better. As if it hid everything under. As if he were not still the runt of the litter. Even with all his training, he could never seem to grow.
He would always be the smallest of his kin, but what he lacked in size, he could make up for in skill. He could hardly wait for the evening meal. He was not hungry, but he was thrilled. To see her, to tease her. And maybe, if he were lucky, she would meet him in the library like old times. As he paced back and forth, he practically counted down the minutes until the sun finally fell. He groaned as they gathered for yet another meeting, but he could put up with it, if it meant seeing her.Â
She stood beside her mother, and it was only then that he could see a hint of resemblance between them. They had the same way of standing, and they were close in height. They shared a curved nose and a cunning gaze, but she only wore it softer. She had not yet seen violence, she had not watched the light fall from a mans eyes. She had not yet lost a love, and he could see her smile softly as the betrothals of her brothers were announced. He relished in the way that she nudged her brothers and gave them a teasing raise of brow before she remembered her surroundings, trying to return to her previously serious demeanor.
A smile pulled at his lips, and his eye narrowed as he stared at her, compelling her to look up at him. Please. He thought to himself, feeling his heart leap as their eyes met. She was just so beautiful. But the peace of her gaze was quickly broken when Vaemond began to speak of their heritage, and Aemond watched in displeasure as her brows furrowed, as her big eyes stared at the floor in shame.Â
The others, he could smile at. But to see her caught in the fight, to see her be called names.
 It disgusted him. His back stiffened, and he bit his tongue. He would have plenty of time to speak to her later, to hold her in the years to come, to fuck the bastardy out of her. But he would have to wait. His hands curled in on themselves, and in a fraction of a moment, Vaemond was gone. His head hit the floor with a sloppy thump, Helaena turned away, her eyes huge and her hands on her head, and he watched as his Strong Girl practically mirrored her, her thumbs pressed against her ears and her fingers over her eyes. He sighed, staring at the body on the floor, his gaze slowly following the bloody sword until he was gazing at his uncle. Daemon. An interesting man he was. And slowly, Aemond smiled. This would be an interesting night.Â
When dinner time came, he took his seat and looked at the rest of the table. Baela and Rhaena, Rhaenyra and Daemon, and next to them, there she was. He smiled a little to himself. They always did that, sitting around her like a human shield, practically hiding her from his view. He followed his mothers words as she called for prayer, and he smiled to himself as his mother spoke of Vaemond Velaryon. The old man could never shut his mouth. The food came out in small rounds, starting with potatoes and bread, and he gazed at her as he licked the remnants of potato from his thumb.
Her eyes were so big, and he loved watching her cheeks get nice and flushed. And even more, he loved seeing how angry her brothers got, all while her mother remained clueless. When the main course came out, he stared in silence as the roasted pig sat in front of him. He could tell how this was going to go, lifting his head to stare right at Luke, seeing the beginningâs of a smile on his mouth. His hands curled into fists, and just as he moved to stand, she spoke. âLuke. Do not be impolite,â She whispered softly. She was soft and sweet, but she had such a bold presence to her when she wanted it.Â
âBut-â Luke began, and she gently shook her head. âEat your carrots. Mother said to be on our best behavior,â She said softly, reaching over to start cutting his soft boiled carrots up. Aemond frowned, slowly leaning back. He had so much anger to release, and no real reason to release it. She was a gem, that girl. She could so easily diffuse a situation. She was the type of woman that she be on the throne. They could share it together, one day. As the evening grew old and their stomachs were full, the music began to flow delicately on the harps. As soon as he saw Jaceâs eyes brighten, he stood, walking around the table like a shark circling a helpless seal, placing his hands on the back of her chair.Â
âAemond,â His mother spoke up, her voice filled with caution as she sat up straight. âDo not worry, mother. I only wish to know if my lovely, strong girl wants to dance with me,â He responded, his fingertips moving across her curls. Rhaenyra bit her cheek, and he could feel the tension growing like a cage.Â
âI dare you to say that again,â Jacaerys spoke, his hands flat on the table.Â
âBrother,â She said softly, gazing back at him. Their eyes met for nearly ten seconds, and finally, he looked away. âI will dance with you,â She spoke, pulling her chair from the table and gently taking his hand. âIf you promise not to stomp on my toes,â She says, teasing him a little as he pulled her to the stone tiles.Â
âI will do my very best,â He whispered, his hands curling around hers. Her touch was so delicate, and he found himself taking a small whiff of her wrist. Raspberries and cashews. It was a unique scent, but it was hers. He wanted to bathe in it, paint it onto his pillow. âI have missed you,â He said softly. And he had. He often found himself dreaming of the possibilities. Of bringing Vhagar to her bedroom window. Of taking her to the skies and bringing her to the forest, where they were not a Prince and a Princess, but only teenagers in love. âYou will be a woman grown soon,â He said softly, his thumbs rubbing circles into her palms as he spun her under his arms. It would only be eight months before they were the same age, and it was only eight months before she would finally be on the marriage market. He just had to make his claim before anyone else could.
 âI know,â She said softly, her fingers trailing to the cuffs on his wrist, touching the golden dragons with her gentle strokes. âI feel as though I was 9 only yesterday,â She mumbled, and he smiled in return.Â
âTell me about it,â He mumbled, his hands moving down to her waist, his touch gentle. His eye wandered to the necklaces she wore, the ones that layered. The shortest was to her collarbone, and the longest was just between her breasts. A seahorse. A Velaryon symbol, something that didnât belong to her, and they all knew it. His fingers slowly wandered to it, his thumb rubbing against the emerald eyes and the golden details. âThis is a symbol of your fathers house, is it not?â He asked softly. His fingers slowly wandered up to cup her face, his fingers against her jaw, licking his lips.
 âIt is a symbol of the sea,â She said quietly, and he could see the turmoil in her eyes. He could feel the gaze of his family on him, and he knew they would not be pleased. But his mother was simply delighted, a scheming smile on her face.
 âYou like the sea, my lady?â He mumbled softly. They were hardly dancing anymore, he was just holding her close, holding her face, his thumb pressing against her lips.Â
âWho does not?â She asked softly, smiling a bit. She was always so sweet when she spoke of the sea, and he could see so much excitement in his eyes.
 âI must admit, I have never had great love for it. Smells of salt and dying fish, and sand simply gets everywhere, the seagulls chase me,â He mumbles, making her laugh a little, brows raised in amusement.
 âPerhaps they just like the look of you,â She said, and he smiled, head tilted.Â
âIs that what you think?â He asked.Â
âWell, if I were a seagull, I would go for you. Your hair would make a good nest,â She teases, making his eye roll. âBut truly, you must be going to the worst spots. I have missed Kingslanding. The shores are beautiful,â She says. His heart thumped, and he found himself gazing into her eyes.Â
âThen you should stay,â He responded softly, leaning a little closer. It was hard to remember that they were surrounded, and that they were not the only people in the world.
 âAnd how would I go about that?â She asked softly.Â
âYou could marry me,â He spoke softly, and the whole room went silent, the notes on the harp fading out. Her brows raised, and she looked like she might giggle. She couldnât tell if he was being serious or not, blinking slowly.Â
âYou do not mean that,â She said softly.Â
âOh, but I do. You would be so happy here.â He mumbled, pushing some falling curls behind her ears, whispering gently against her skin.
 âWait for me, will you?â He mumbled. Her face flushed, and he could practically feel her heart pounding beneath her skin. She was about to speak, but the doors opened and cakes began to roll out, small cups of pudding, trays of lemon cakes and cookies.
 â(Y/N), come sit,â Rhaenyra called, and she gazed up at Aemond for a moment, as if trying to speak, but nothing would come out. Slowly, they parted, moving to go back to their seats. Her cheeks were so warm, and she prayed that no one else could tell under the warm light of the candles. Immediately, Rhaenyra leaned toward her, searching her face for discomfort.Â
âWhat did he say to you?â She asked, noting the odd look of.. Something on her daughters face. It wasnât fear, and it wasnât discomfort. She just couldnât place that expression.Â
âNothing, mother,â She said softly. All eyes were on her, and Daemon wore a smirk like a man would wear a crown.
 âI believe she has feelings for the boy,â He whispered, making Rhaenyraâs eyes widen. She looked disgusted, for a brief moment, but she quickly hid her distaste, blinking it away as she took lemon cakes onto her plate.Â
âWe will talk about this later,â She said quietly, plucking the sweetened lemons from the top of the cake and placing one in her mouth. Daemon reached over and took the cake itself. They had a system. She would eat the fruits, and he would eat the parts she did not want. Meanwhile, she reached for a cookie, breaking it into small pieces on her plate, trying her best not to look at Aemond. She could tell that he was getting the same treatment on his side of the table, a knowing smile on his face as his mother shook his arm, trying to juice information out of him. He only chuckled to himself, taking a few sips of his wine. When the dinner finally ended, she was a blushing mess as she followed her mother, looking over her shoulder to see Aemond going in the other direction, a silent agreement in their eyes. They would see each other in the library tonight. As she took her bath, all she could think of was him.
 Him and his offer, and the more she thought of it, the more she smiled. She trusted him more than she ever could a stranger. And she began to think of how she could convince her mother to let it happen. She trusted that Aemond would never hurt her. Maybe men that acted out of their place, maybe annoying nephews at the dinner table, but never her, and she was confident in that. And perhaps the marriage could bring the family together. Rhaenyra had wanted Jace to marry Helaena, after all. She did have a desire for the families to mix. That was it. That would be her selling point. âSome time alone, please?â She asked the maids as they scrubbed her body and hands.
 âOf course, Princess,â They responded, quickly leaving. She sighed softly, ringing out her loofa as she looked at the mirror. Perhaps if she had children with Aemond, they would come out with white hair. Maybe they would have a better life than her. Her eyes then wandered to her seahorse necklace, and she remembered her father, before his death. Her life had been an odd one. She felt like she had a new father every couple of years, and in truth, she had. She had the father whoâs seed she grew from, who taught her how to count and tucked her into bed during his shifts on the nightwatch.
She had the father who taught her how to fish, and which shells made the best necklaces, and which crabs were dangerous. And then she had the father that taught her to be bold, the one who married her mother the day after his own wife died. That had been a tough one, and in truth, she still was not warmed to Daemon. She did not like the way he treated her precious mother, and she swore to herself that she would never have a marriage like theirs. When she was finally dried of her bath, she looked out to the stars.
 She looked for her favorite constellations, and she smiled as she remembered the library in the Red Keep. It was beautiful and large and full of enough books to last a lifetime. She was quick to get into her pyjamas, and even quicker to open her door, looking up at her guard.Â
âExcuse me,â She said softly, stepping out. âAre you going somewhere, Princess?â He asked, a look of confusion on his face. He had a long beard, and she was sure he had seen him before.
 âYes,â She answered, making her way down the corridor without saying anything else. She made her way as quiet as she could to the library, passing a rat or two that made her heart jump. That was something that she had hated about the Red Keep. There was nothing on the windows, so animals would come and go as they pleased. She much preferred mice over rats. Something about their tails tickled her brain in the worst of ways. When she finally did reach the library, her eyes searched for him, and she felt disappointment rising in her like steam when she could not find him. Perhaps she had gotten the wrong message. Maybe she made up the language of the eyes. But she would not waste her trip, beginning to pick out a book or two on constellations and The Moon and The Tides.
 âYou didnât think I forgot, did you?â His voice made her jump, and she gripped her skirt as her eyes searched for him. âSo close, my little doe. Look down,â He spoke, and when she did, she found him hiding under one of the tables in a pile of blankets. She smiled, crouching.
 âAre you hiding?â She asked softly. She couldnât see his expression in the dark, but she could feel warmth radiating from him.
 âI am not hiding. I simply wanted to see how long it would take to find me,â He responded, reaching for her hand and pulling her down. This was much easier when they were kids, but now he was longer than the table, and the needed more pillows.Â
âSo you have just been watching me walk around aimlessly?â She teased, making him nod.
 âOh, of course,â He spoke softly, his hands finding her cheeks, squishing them gently. âI want to speak with my sister,â He mumbled softly, pulling her closer until her belly was against his chest. âI will not marry you until I get her permission,â He said softly. She nodded softly, leaning her cheek against his chest. She could hear his heart racing, and she smiled at the feel of the vibrations.
 âI did not take you for the type to want Mommyâs blessing,â She mumbles, making him scoff.Â
âI know better than to take away her little girl. She owes me this much, for all that has been done to me,â He spoke, and her hand slowly made its way up to his eyepatch.
 âI am sorry that I said nothing that night,â She mumbled, and he softened against her touch.Â
âYou were only a child,â He said quietly.Â
âAs were you. None of us deserved all that has happened to us. If it is any help, I stole Lukeâs desserts for a week,â She mumbled gently.
 âAh, yes. That is the most appropriate punishment,â He teased, making her roll her eyes.Â
âI did what I could.â She speaks, her lips brushing against his forehead, placing a small kiss there. A bit of his hair got into her mouth, and he squirmed, making him chuckle.Â
âAre you trying to make a nest of my hair?â He asked, recalling their earlier conversation.
 âOh hush.â She mumbled, curling up into him. Neither of them meant to fall asleep, but it was just so warm and comforting, and slowly, they fell into a slumber, feet sticking out of their fort. When they woke, it was to yells so loud they thought someone was killed. Both sat up far too quick, smacking the tops of their heads against the wooden tables. In shame, they crawled out quickly, her eyes big as she stared up at both of their mothers.
 âWhat is the meaning of this?â Rhaenyra asked. She sounded so angry, but her eyes were not on her daughter, they were on Aemond, her lips pressed into a fineline.
 âWe were having a sleepover,â He said simply. âYou know what that is like, donât you sister? Didnât you used to have sleepovers with your friends quite frequently?â He asked. He couldnât speak without being antagonistic.Â
âAemond!â She and Alicent exclaimed at the same time.Â
âMother, please. I promise it was nothing. We were only speaking,â She said softly, eyes on the floor as she was pulled closer, her face and neck inspected for marks. âWe just wanted to do as we used to as children, that is all,â She said softly. Rhaenyra slowly calmed, tucking her hair behind her ears.
 âHe did nothing to you?â She asked.
 âOf course not. Aemond would never hurt me,â She spoke, feeling Aemondâs hand moving to her shoulder.Â
âThat much is true,â He spoke. âSister, it has been a long time since we have spoken face to face,â He said, his eyepatch on the floor, having fallen off in his sleep. He wanted her to look at him in full, to see all that he had become.Â
âThat it has,â Rhaenyra spoke, her face void of emotion.Â
âYou know that I love your daughter. That has never been a secret. Do not deny her happiness because of one misunderstanding.â He said, making Rhaenyraâs face slowly fall. Her eyes looked to Alicent, as if she had any part in this. She simply shrugged, mouth parted.Â
âWhat are you saying, Aemond?â She asked her youngest son.Â
âI am saying that I wish to unite our families. I will marry (Y/N).â He spoke, leaving no room for discussion. Rhaenyra stared blankly at the pair. She had wished to stop the resentment between the families, and this would be the perfect way. But she could not bear the thought of her daughter staying here, alone with him, with them. She knew that (Y/N) would marry one day, but she just didnât realize how soon that would be. But as she saw her daughters smile, and the hope in her eyes, she just could not say no. âVery well.â She spoke after a moment, letting out a deep breath.
 âI will allow it. But you will wait the moons until her name day. We will ensure that this is what she truly wants,â She spoke, nodding to herself. Alicent was more hesitant, running through the possibilities in her mind. This was not what she wanted, not one bit. She wanted as much distance between the two families as possible. And what would the people say when they learned that the Prince was marrying a bastard? Her blood was good as dirt, and she came from a family of liars and narcissists. But no matter what she said, she knew her son would do as he pleased, so finally, she nodded, looking down at the floor.Â
128 AC The wedding day came quicker than either of them had expected. For at least three hours a day it was just planning, planning, planning. Trying on rings and taking them off, getting as close as they could without their chaperones making a fuss, whispered compliments and holding hands under the table. And of course, having to remind Alicent that this was not her wedding. âOh, but wouldnât a green dress be so lovely?â She asked, holding the fabric to (Y/N)âs skin. Rhaenyra could sense her discomfort, giving a light shake of her head.Â
âNo. She has already decided to wear a gown similar to mine,â She spoke, and as Alicent went to open her mouth, she quickly spoke again.
 âDonât you remember that from when you were young? How old were you, nine or so? I found you in my chambers trying to get the dress on. It was much too long for you then,â Rhaenyra smiled fondly as she sipped her tea.Â
âIt will not fit her,â Alicent pointed out, to which Rhaenyra smiled.Â
âIt is a good to live in the time of seamstresses, is it not? I have already had it expanded and altered to suit her. You should worry about your son. Black leather at a wedding would be quite improper,â She spoke. Aemond sighed, slowly making eye contact with his betrothed. The pair were rather calm, but their mothers⌠were certainly something.Â
âI have already had his clothing commissioned. He will wear a fine beaded doublet of dragons and seahorses, in nod to herâŚ. Velaryon heritage,â Alicent spoke, her voice soft and sarcastic, making Rhaenyraâs eyes roll. (Y/N) could not take it anymore.
 âIn all respect, this is my wedding. It is our wedding. We do not need this petty argument ruining our day. We both have fine clothes to wear, we have stunning rings, invitations are sent, and that is the end of it.â She spoke, looking between the two older women, watching them go silent. And so the pair would sit and wait for the day to come, resting together in the gardens, watching the sun fall and rise as they ate their meals on a blanket. They were romantic and disgusting, living in their own little world, just them and their chaperone.
 âI cannot wait until we are finally wed and can be alone,â He sighed, rubbing her hand, kissing the top of her engagement ring. It was golden and covered in stones. It was far from traditional, and it was exactly the type of thing that she enjoyed.
 âNor can I,â She said softly, smiling as she saw a bunny running across the grass.
 âOnly a few days left,â he said softly. âYou are certain you want to go through with this? There is still time to call it all off,â He mumbled, making her scoff.
 âOf course I am certain. I will just have to prepare myself for more of your mothers comments,â She responded teasingly.Â
âOh, Gods. Are do not want to think about that. I only wish to think of what it will be like to finally kiss you, to share our names and bodies⌠to finally sleep in the same bed and wake up to the sight of you every morning,â he murmured, making her cheeks burn.
 âStop it,â She mumbles, too embarrassed to listen to any more of it, placing her hands on her ears, making him chuckle as he pulled them off.Â
âI am thrilled to see your pretty face all sleepy and puffy, and to share our evening meals, to have painting after painting made of you to hang on my walls until I cannot escape those pretty eyes,â He smiled. She squirmed under him, flattered and grossed out, covering her crimson cheeks. âHm.. the bugs are coming out,â He sighed as the sky got dark and frogs bred in the distance. She sighed, and they carefully packed up their things and made their way back to the Keep. Alicent was watching them from her balcony, and the two walked a safe distance apart. Only a few more days they would have to hold themselves together. And finally, on the 18th day of the 11th moon, all of the Lords and Ladies of importance were packed inside the Red Keep. Beautiful gowns twirling under candle light, the best of music echoing from the harps. Aemond tried to breath as he walked in, his eyes finally finding her.Â
And gods, he would marry her a million times over. Her curls were full of pearls and small pins, half of her hair up and the other half down. His palms were sweating, pressing against his doublet. He was painfully aware of everyone looking at him, but he couldnât look away from her.
 â(Y/N).â He murmured softly as she finally stood in front of him. He was struck dumb by her beauty, blinking slowly.Â
âAemond,â She said softly, their voices quiet and kept to the loudness of a breath. Both of their faces red as the Sept read off some text, but neither of them were paying attention. Hurry up, Aemond thought to himself, getting increasingly more anxious as the minutes passed. And finally, as silence covered them, he reached forward, held her cheeks, and pressed a big kiss to her mouth. It was sweet and awkward, and their teeth bumped for a brief moment. All of the love they had collected for each other in the last months came oozing out, her hands holding his until they finally parted, looking at each other, their breath lost.
 âAnd you have⌠kissed your bride.â The Septon spoke, a bit awkwardly, as if this had never happened before. And it had not. The crowd was quiet, looking around for the reaction they were supposed to have, until they finally erupted in applause.
 âI love you, My Strong Girl,â He whispered into her ear. She smiled up at him, arms around his shoulders as flower petals flew like rain.
 âAww, thank you,â She said, making his eye squint. She laughed, her thumbs pressing her cheeks.
 âAnd I love you too, my One Eyed Prince,â She mumbled, feeling his arms around her waist, holding her close as if he wished to absorb her. And so the One Eyed Prince and The Strong Girl lived the happiest they could, despite the violence around them and the whispers in their ears, their love never died. Burning furious and strong like Vhagarâs flame, and with every five years that passed, they would have wedding after wedding after wedding, until they were wed beneath all the gods and above all the land. Until their love could not be denied, and until they died, where their ashes were mixed and mingled with the shore, covered in shells and seahorses.
I think this might be the longest fic i've posted so far! I hope you enjoyed it!!
Thank you to everyone who reads.

Your sworn sword

â˘Warnings: fingering, degradation (just a bit), 'just the tip', talking of sexual themes, piv, smut.â˘
Part 1 -> Part 2
{Request: I have a request! Aemond is send across the narrow sea to be the sworn sword/knight of a (verryy beautiful) princess from a noble house is essoâs. As punishment what he did to lucerys Thanks for reading dear đ}
To say that Prince Aemond was grumpy was an euphemism.
He was rigid, stoic, and rude.
But your father loved him.
You couldnât understand why, not after his most recent kill: his little nephew.
You remembered meeting Luke Velaryon once, he was a nice, gentle, kind boy.
His brother Jace was just the same.
Princess Rhaenyra had been invited as a guest at your fatherâs name day feast with her family, and you remembered spending a nice afternoon with her sons.
You actually kept contact with her youngest child, Jace. You two sometimes sent letters to each other, talking of your days apart.
You would have never said it outloud, but you had a weakness for the boyâs dark, beautiful hair.
But he was promised to her cousin Baela.
As soon as you heard the news, you thought he would have stopped sending you letters, but he didn't, and you almost cried of joy when the next letter came.
Then, your father sided with the greens.
He sided with rude, dangerous people, and named the worst of them as your sworn sword.
When he told you about his choice you begged him, you cried, you did everything you could to try to change his mind but it was all to no avail.
Now, all the other Ladies never sat with you, they were afraid to speak with you, all because of some dark, evil, scary person standing behind you, following every step you took.
It was so obvious how much he hated being a night, yet, he stood his role perfectly.
Aemond was always there, lurking like a shadow behind you, his presence cold and heavy, suffocating your every breath. He never spoke to you unless necessary, never showed any warmth or softness in his voice. There was nothing but formality and distance, a thick wall of indifference that made your skin crawl whenever he was near.
To be fair, the only thing you thought interesting of him was his dragon Vaghar.
Your days had become a game of silence, your once carefree nature now replaced with the constant awareness of his eyes on you. You missed the days when you could write to Jace without a worry, when his words brought you comfort and a glimpse of hope. Now, the letters felt like a secret rebellion, something dangerous, but you couldnât give them up. They were the only link to a world that still held some warmth.
You still wrote to him, though your letters had become shorter, more cautious. You dared not mention Aemond, or your isolation. Instead, you spoke of mundane things, of books you were reading, of the changing seasons. Jaceâs responses, too, had shifted, though he remained kind and attentive. There was always a note of tension, a hint of restraint. You knew he was aware of the shifting tides, of your father's allegiance to the Greens.
 You happily walked in your room, smiling as you held the newest letter on your hand from Jace.
Aemond was walking right behind you, but you couldnât care.
Jace's letter had just come.
You chuckled to yourself as you closed the door of your room behind you, leaving Aemond outside, guarding your door.Â
You jogged to your desk, sitting down on the chair and breaking the sigil, opening with trembling hands the letter.
There were only a few lines written.
You furrowed your brows, confused. He usually wrote at least one page.
Dearest friend,
I assume you have heard of my familyâs recent loss, my sweet brother Luke, gone by the hand of my uncle Aemond.Â
It saddens me to tell you this, but due to your fatherâs allegiance and your newest sworn sword, I believe it is time to end our communications.
Jace Velaryon
You felt a pain in your chest.
A deep pain.
You werenât going to receive any more letters from him.Â
I believe it is time to end our communications.
You stood up from your desk, leaving the letter to hit the floor as you ran to your bed, laying face down, your arms crossed under your face as you bursted into tears.
You didnât eat lunch, you didnât have dinner. You didnât want to get up from your bed.
Your maids, even one of your closest friends tried to walk past Aemond to check on you, but he was impenetrable, he wouldnât let anyone in, not if you didnât want them to.
His behavior left you speechless.
You knew he was loyal, you knew he was one to do his duty, but the way he stood up for you, not letting anyone in just as you asked, left you almost flattered.
The hours dragged on as you laid in your bed, the room dark and suffocating. The weight of Jace's words still lingered, pressing down on your chest. It was as though the last thread connecting you to the warmth of your past had been severed. You felt utterly alone, the castle walls seeming colder, the silence more deafening.
But outside your door, Aemond remained, steadfast and unmoving. His presence felt different now, less like the shadow you despised and more like an unavoidable part of your life. He had become a constant, whether you liked it or not, and now, oddly, that constancy brought a shred of comfort in your moment of loss.
By the time the moon rose high in the sky, you hadnât moved from your bed, save to cry quietly into your pillow. The pain of Jace's rejection, not just of you but of the friendship you had cherished, was overwhelming. You couldnât bring yourself to think of anything else, let alone leave your room.
A soft knock echoed through the thick wooden door. At first, you ignored it, thinking it was another maid or friend trying to check on you, Aemond would have taken care of it in a moment. But after a moment, there was another knock, firm yet measured, followed by a voice, calm, collected, and unmistakably Aemondâs.
 "You haven't eaten." He said, his tone devoid of his usual coldness, though it was still restrained. You laid still, wondering if you could pretend you hadnât heard him. But the silence lingered too long, and it was clear he wasnât going to leave. He was your sworn sword, after all, bound to you, whether you liked it or not.
"Iâm not hungry." You muttered into your pillow, your voice muffled and thick with the remnants of tears.
There was a pause, a moment of hesitation, which was unlike him. Then, Aemond spoke again, quieter this time. "It has been hours. You should take something, if only to keep your strength."
His words were filled with disinterest despite the meaning of them. He made impossible things possible.
"I donât want anything." You repeated, more firmly this time.Â
The door opened with a loud creek, and Aemond just walked inside. You scoffed, annoyed, but you felt too sad to think about him pissing you off.
âLeave me alone!â You groaned on the mattress, clenching your hands into fists. You could hear him moving in the room.
âThat puppy of my nephew is what has reduced you in this state?â He asked, scoffing. You turned your head to look at him, and you saw him looking down at a letter in his hands.
Jaceâs letter.
You bolted upright on the bed, fury boiling inside you at the sight of Aemond holding Jaceâs letter. His tall, imposing figure seemed even more oppressive in the dim light of your room. His one good eye flicked over the page with a mixture of disdain and cold amusement, while the sapphire in his other socket glinted in the low light.
"Give that back!" you demanded, your voice cracking from the tears and frustration, but Aemond made no move to return the letter. He dropped the letter, letting out another scoff.
âYouâre a fool.â He said, his rudeness making you red to your ear.
âHow dare you talk to me like that?â You exclaimed, indignited.
âHeâs a bastard. Youâre sweet on a bastard, the son of my whore sister. Thatâs foolish.â
You felt your blood boil at his words, each syllable a sharp jab to your heart. âYou donât know anything about me! You think you can judge me just because you think you're so much better than everyone else!?â
He stepped closer, towering over you, his expression a mixture of contempt and something unreadable. âI am better than everyone else. Iâm surely better than that boy who has no right on the throne he wants to claim so much.â
Your anger flared, but underneath it was a deep sorrow. âHeâs more than just a name or a title! Jace has been kind to me, and youââ you pointed an accusing finger at him, âyou are the one who brings darkness wherever you go.â
Aemondâs eye narrowed, the air crackling with tension. âKindness wonât save you, and neither will that bastard. This world isnât built on sentiment. Itâs built on strength and blood.â
âStrength?â you spat, incredulous. âStrength that comes from killing boys? Thatâs your idea of strength?â
He looked unfazed, his expression hardening. âLuke was weak. Thatâs why heâs dead.â
âYouâre twisted.â You hissed. âIt brings you pleasure, doesnât it? Being feared, see people looking away from you ââ He pushed you back before you could continue, as he started pulling off the upper structure of his armor.
You stumbled back as you looked up at him, confused and stunned, but he pushed you back again as he took off the lower part of his armor, making you fall back on your bed.
âYou want to know what brings me pleasure?â He grabbed your ankle, dragging you down the bed until your butt was almost over it. He pushed the skirts of your dress up, exposing your legs.
âWhat do you think youâre doing?â You tried to close your legs, or pull down the skirts, but he raised your legs up, then he leaned down to grab both your thighs, spreading them apart, pressing his face against your underwear.
âThis.â He mumbled against the thin clothing, his nose pressing against a funny spot against you, that made a strange sound come out of your mouth. âThis brings me pleasure.â He growled as he pulled down your underwear along with the stockings. âTeaching stupid ladies their places.â He said as he dived his face back between your thighs, now his mouth pressing on that same spot, sucking and rubbing with his tongue, leaving you breathless for a moment, the pleasure was so high and so good you couldnât speak.
You couldnât see him, your skirts were covering the view, but you didnât really care. Not when it felt this good.Â
You didnât think you'd ever felt this good.Â
The one who was making you feel good, was a Targaryen Prince, a child murdered, the rider of the largest dragon in the world.
You could only squirm, your mind numbed by the pleasure, slowly overcoming all the alarms your brain was sending you, telling you to push the prince away, to not let him touch you in such an appropriate manner.
But then, all so suddenly it stopped, leaving you panting heavily. You saw Aemond raising his head from between your legs, coming into your field of vision.
His chin was wet, his only eye almost completely black as he looked down at you.
His hands moved on your skin, almost gently, caressing your skin as they moved up, your knees, your ankles. He wrapped his fingers around your ankles, securing your legs raised, your feet by each side of his head.
You should have stopped him.
This was improper, it was a sin. A sin you were committing with the worst man in the Seven Kingdoms.
You wanted to move, kick him back, telling him to stop touching you with his filthy, blood-stained hands, but under the dark gaze of his single eye you couldnât move.
Aemond tightened the grip on your ankles, suddenly pulling you up so your hips lifted from the mattress. Startled, you let out a weak squeak, gripping the sheets tightly as your body moved forward, the back of your thighs landing harshly against him, your core rubbing against a protuberance on his pants, the impact sending another jolt of pleasure through your body.
âYeah, you like it.â He hummed to himself as he dropped you back on the mattress. He leaned down, his body making space for himself between your legs as his face came to hover yours. âAnd you want to feel it more, don't you?â He smirked, looking down at you.
You could feel your face burning because of his words, more likely because of the truthfulness of them, because yes, you wanted to feel it again.
âNo-â You mumbled as you looked up at him, directly in his eye, trying to sound firm, but he simply chuckled, grabbing your face with his hand, his fingers digging in the soft skin of your cheeks. âSuch a liar. No wonder why my sweet bastard-nephew doesnât want you.âÂ
That stang.
Your eyes immediately filled with tears and anger.
âHow dare you?â You hissed as you tried to push him off of you, slapping his chest repeatedly, but he only smiled even more.
âThere, thereâŚâ He hummed as his hand went back underneath your dress, finding you private again. No matter how much you fought, his body was keeping your legs apart, and he seemed impossible to move.
You only stopped when you felt a strange feeling, something filling you in a way youâve never felt, that made you gasp out loud. You unconsciously let out a moan, your back arched instinctively, as your body almost contorted as he started moving his finger inside you.
âSo easy to shut you up, mh?â He asked as he followed your face to be able to see every expression you made. âSo easy to put into place.â He added then in a low voice.
You gritted your teeth together, trying to find in you the force to push him off, to not give him the satisfaction he was showing with that damn smile of his, but you couldnât. The only sounds that came out of your mouth were whines or soft moans as his finger moved faster inside you, caressing everywhere inside you, and eliciting a pure bliss of pleasure.
âJace is a fool for leaving you.â He said as he looked at you, your eyes half closed, your head leaned back, your lips apart. He didnât even look like he realized he said that, it was like he was talking to himself and accidentally said it outloud. You turned your head to look at him, finding his eyes fixed on you, staring in appreciation. âYouâre a rare beauty.â He said, his voice low and rough.
You blinked slowly, the weight of his words sinking in. A warmth spread across your chest, but you werenât sure if it was the pleasure or the way his gaze lingered on you.Â
No.
You thought to yourself.
Not him.
Please.
But the way he looked at you, like he was looking at the most beautiful thing in the world was doing something to you. It made your stomach clench, your head dizzier.
Youâve been told countless times by suitors that you were a sight to see, a beauty, but it did nothing if not make you blush or feel appreciated.
With Jace you felt your heart beat so loud you feared it could jump out of your chest.
You too were aware of your beauty, but you never thought of it as a rareness.
But now with Aemond Targaryen, the cold, mean, cruel man, who was doing unspeakable things to you, who looked at you like a Goddess, you truly felt like one.
Aemondâs gaze pierced through you, a silent intensity in his expression that made your breath catch in your throat. You wished you could deny the way his presence and actions were affecting you, wished you could ignore the way his words stirred something deep inside. But the truth was undeniable.Â
As he slipped his second finger inside your thigh core, you felt it crushing on you. You didnât know what, but for a moment, you forgot about everything, Jace, the war, Aemondâs sins, your worries, your anger and your sadness, it all vanished by the newfound feeling of ecstasy. You whined louder, making aemond clamp his other hand immediately over your mouth to muffle your sounds as he kept moving your fingers. You looked at him with wide eyes, you didnât know what had just happened to you, but you wanted to keep feeling it, no matter what cost, you wanted to feel that good again.
He kept pumping his fingers inside you as you saw him starting to move, rub, against your thigh, some hardness pressing and caressing your skin. His brows arched slightly, his eye narrowing slightly as he pressed his hips harder against you, seeking more friction and pressure.Â
Youâve never seen a man do a face close to that one.
Youâve never seen Aemond make a face like that, and it was beautiful, it was breathtaking, hypnotizing, you felt like watching him all day as he experienced his pleasure.
He didnât miss the way you seemed affected, obviously. He looked down at you and found you staring at him, his eye darkened even more, his pupil dilating even more if possible as he clenched his jaw.
âYou like this?â He looked down at you, moving his hand from your mouth to your neck, gripping it tightly, but not enough to actually cut your air off. You tilted your head back, wrapping your hands on his wrist and arm, gasping as he slipped his fingers out, passing them over your pearl just to see you squirm, his lips moving into a smirk. âNo.â He said as he sat up in his haunches between your legs, forcing you to spread them to make room for his body as he started to undo his pants. âYou love it.â
You tried to look down, trying to understand what he was doing but he squeezed your throat into a warning, keeping your head in place. âWhat are you trying to see, uh?â He growled as he pushed his pants down enough to let his cock spring free. âSuch a curious menace, always getting into trouble.â He hissed as he leaned over her to look at you from above. âAlways sneaking around, making my life harder.â He gritted his teeth. âMaking me chase you.â He raised her skirts to your waist as he aligned his cock to your core, wet and warm, hot.
âNo â â You mumbled as you felt the tip pressing on your skin. âY-you canât- Weâre not married-â You mumbled as you panted, shaking your head. Aemond smiled down at you, his thumb caressing the skin of her neck.Â
âNo one will notice.â He said firmly, pushing slightly, making his tip grace the inside your core, just slightly, enough to hear another moan from you. âJustâŚâ He groaned as he repeated the movement, moving his hips forward as his face contorted in pleasure. â... the tip â Fuck ââ He groaned as he started moving his hips, the tip of his cock was being sucked in every time by your cunt, as if it was trying to keep him inside.Â
It didnât feel bad.
She did feel like her cunt was being torn apart, but she found the pain mixed to the pleasure extremely pleasing.
It was good.
It was so good.
The pleasure was so overwhelming, so strong, so blissful.
âA-Aemond â â You bit your lower lip as you arched your back, jerking your hips to find more pleasure as his tip kept slipping out and back in.
Aemond couldnât tear his eyes off the sight, your core making a wet sound every time he slipped in, your walls forced open to make space for his thick cock, his red tip being welcomed in the warmness of your body, and then the sound of your weak wail every time he pulled back, only enough to be able to push back in.
âYeah like that ââ He growled as he tightened his hand around your neck, his eye still fixed on how your bodies connected, his thrusts regular, calculated and hard.
He was hanging by a thread, and he was showing a great amount of control, just by not slamming his whole long cock inside you, and making you scream in pain and pleasure.
âGrind yourself like a whore ââ He snarled as he started rolling his hips faster, the wet sound growing louder along with his pace. âFuck youre so tight â Youâre squeezing me inside - â
It didnât bother you the way he called you, the way he spoke. If not, it only aroused you more.
You bit your lower lip harder, and no matter how low you tried to keep your noises, it became impossible as Aemond moved his free hand, using his fingers to circle your pearl, putting just the right amount of pressure. Your back arched violently as you threw your head back, your mouth open in an oval shape, grunts and moans coming out one after another as Aemond tightened his hand around your throat, starting to cut some of your air supplies, your eyes rolled in the back of your head.
It was all so much.
It was all so good.
âCome.â He growled as he finally looked up at you. âCome, before I lose it.â His eye fixed on yours. He looked feral. He looked like a chained animal, that once set free, would have hunted and killed everything in its path. âCome, before absolutely ruin you.âÂ
It wasnât like you had any control over it, because when the pleasure reached you in such a hard, strong frisson, you could only surrender to it. Your eyes widened, your mouth opened, but Aemond tightened his hand on your throat even more, killing every sound you could have let out. Your eyes watered as your hips jerked, the pleasure washing over you in devastating waves.
He snarled, letting go of your throat, but you barely had the time to take a deep breathe because you felt a stinging pain, barely muffled by the aftershocks of you climax, as Aemond grabbed tightly your hips and harshly pulled to him, making you slip down on the bed and making his cock thrust completely inside you, as he moaned on top of you.
âSo fucking tight.â His voice was strained, his breathing heavy, then, you felt a strange sensation of wetness inside you.
You whined as the bliss of pleasure slowly faded away, leaving you in an uncomfortable pain, so you pushed Aemond away, who retrieved with a groan, slipping out of you.
You slowly sat up, looking at him as your mind slowly registered the last moments.Â
Aemond stood up from the bed, tucking himself inside his pants and starting to put his armor back on.
You didnât say anything in the meanwhile, you just stared down at the bed covers, where you and Aemond were laying till a few seconds before, committing one of the worst sins ever.
A sin that felt so good.
You snapped out of your moment of trance only when you heard the door slam shut, and a strange smell of burned paper in the air. You moved to the end of the bed, on the floor, there was a piece of paper on fire.
Jaceâs letter.

Warnings: Swearing
Pairings: Jacaerys Velaryon Ă Targ oc
1.06
âDayanara?â
Your eyes fill with tears the second you hear Rhaenyraâs voice. âIâm sorry, I didnât know where else to go.â
Seeing you standing with a dark-haired babe in her arms, Rhaenyra feels a mix of emotions: shock, confusion, and guilt. When you stopped visiting Dragonstone, she knew something was wrong, but when none of the ravens she sent asking about your well-being were answered, she assumed Alicent was behind it, but never did she expect this. Soon as Rhaenyra returned to Dragonstone, the maester asked to speak to her in private as a matter of urgency and informed her that you had arrived earlier with a babe.
Her eyes brim with tears as she gulps down, âWhaâwhat is the childâs name?â
âAelia, sheâs my daughter,â you weep. âMine and Jacaerys, Iâm so sorry, Rhaenyra.â
You werenât sure what you expected to happen next. Rhaenyra, to let you stay? For Jace to accept his daughter and proclaim his undying love for you? And that youâd live happily ever after? It was a nice thoughtâmore of a foolish dreamâto imagine anything good would happen next.
The door to the bedchamber creaks slightly, and you turn and see Prince Daemon glaring at you. He storms forward. âWhat did she just say?â He repeats the question when neither of you answer. âJacaerys has a bastard with a green? No doubt another trick was orchestrated by those Hightower cunts. How do we know if the child is hers?â
You step back, holding Aelia closer. More tears spill from your eyes; it hurts to know he thought of you so poorly, especially since you were once so close to Rhaenyraâs small family.
âThatâs enough,â Rhaenyra says sternly. âNara is nothing like that; my sister would not lie about such a thing.â
âIs that so?â he snarks, only addressing his wife. âI distinctly remember the look on Prince Jacaerys face being similar to the one on yours whenever the greens toyed with you. All the years of cruelty you sufferedââ
âI never meant to hurt Jace! I love him,â the words blurt out of your mouth. âIâIâI never wanted any of this; you must believe me. I wish things could have been so different.â
Your elder sister's eyes gloss over again as she watches you place the babe in the cot the master has brought to you. âWhat happened?â
You swallow hard; it takes all of your strength to not crumble under Daemonâs hateful gaze, but you refuse to give him that power over you. âI didnât know I was with child,â you say, picking at the skin surrounding your nails. âIt was only when Aegon kept making comments about my weight that the queen figured it out. I wanted to tell Jace, but I wasnât allowed to leave the keep or write to him. I wasnât allowed to see my brothers or Helaena until after Iâd given birth; she kept me in complete isolation.â
âKing Viserys wouldnât have allowed that,â Daemon hisses.
âMy father never knew. The maester told them I had a contagious sickness. And when I gave birthâŚâ A sharp pain shoots across your chest as you feel the weight of your mother's betrayal crashing down, making it difficult to breathe. âTheyâŚtheyâŚâ
Tenderly Rhaenyra strokes at your cheek. âWhat on earth did they do to you, my sweet?â
âThey told me Aelia was dead, that she died after Iâd given birth. Iâve spent all this time mourning my daughter, who was alive. She was being kept in the queen's quarters the entire time.â You try to push the awful memories aside, but they donât budge, causing you to sob hysterically. Rhaenyra places her hand on the back of your head, gently stroking your hair in an attempt to soothe you. âThe midwives who were there have been dismissed from the keep, and the only other person who knows is Ser Criston. Heâs the one who told me Aelia was alive.â
Daemon and Rhaenyra share an unreadable look.
âThereâs still so much I need to share with you, sister, but...â You wipe your nose with the back of your hand. âI know I have no right to ask, but may I tell Prince Jacaerys? I want to apologize for everything in person.â
âYou may,â Rhaenyra nods, her eyes moving to Aelia, who was starting to whimper. âHe has taken to his bedchambers to get ready for dragon riding. If youâre quick, you may catch him before he leaves. Iâll watch over Aelia for now.â
â
The look on Jacaerys face makes you feel sick; he was distraught and looked as if he might throw up. Within the space of a few minutes, youâd pulled the rug out from underneath him. Not only did Jacaerys know he was a father, but his daughter would be tainted with bastardy like him.
You take a deep breath. âShe looks like you. Aelia, she has your hair and nose.â
Jace says nothing.
You go over the side of the bed heâs sitting on and kneel in front of him, trying to get him to look at you. Jace looked so happy when he first opened the door to his bedchamber and saw you standing there. âJacaerys, please say something. Iâm sorry.â
âYouâre sorry?â He sounds deflated. âYou've got nothing to apologize for; you didn't ask for this.â
âDidn't I? I chose to have six before marriage; I brought this on myself." You wipe away fallen tears with the back of your hand. âYou need to believe me that I wanted to leave; I wanted to be with you!â
âItâs not your fault, Nara. I wrote to you every day. I tried to see you.â
âI never knew you tried to see me or sent ravens until a member of the kingsguard confessed the queen had them destroy all the ravens.â
You attempt to keep your tears at bay by squeezing your eyes shut, but they fall anyway. Jace wipes them away with the pads of his thumb. âI need to speak with my mother. Try and fix this mess before itâs too late.â Seeing the look of hurt on your face, Jace tried to retract what he said: âI didnât mean it in the way that it sounded; Iâm just trying to figure out how to solve this before your honor comes into question.â
âI donât care what people say about me.â
âI do, because anything said about us will pass on to Aelia.â
Hearing the pain in his voice makes you cry even harder. âYou're right, I've justâI can't think clearly. God only knows what Alicent has spread. Iâm scared, Jace; you donât know how vicious she can be. The things that she threatened me with... I can't forgive her.â
He goes silent for a few moments. âWhere is Aelia?â
âWith Princess Rhaenyra. Do you want to meet her?â
âYes⌠no⌠Iâm terrified.â
A soft smile pulls on your lips. âLetâs go then.â
â
The last few hours have been hectic. You stand in front of the black-painted table, studying each of the different houses and their locations on it. A single tear rolls down your cheek. Hearing the footsteps of someone walking up behind you, you turn to face them, fully expecting to see Jacaerys or Rhaenyra, but are surprised to see itâs Daemon. Gulping, you lower your head to look at the table again.
âUncle.â
âWe need to speak.â
Oh.
âIf youâve come to call me a Hightower cunt, thereâs no need. I already know what you think of me and my daughter being here.â
When Jacaerys first laid eyes on your daughter, he started to sob, and while Rhaenyra comforted her son, Daemon became enraged and demanded you take your âbastardâ and leave Dragonstone at once, which caused him and your sister to argue.
âI used to pray to the gods nightly, begging them to bring my daughter back to me and to be reunited with Jacaerys. But never did I think it would be under such circumstances.â
âThe gods can give as much as they take. Where is the girl now?â
âAelia is with Jacaerys and Princess Rhaenyra.â You turn and face the board again. âMy sister has shown me more kindness than my own mother ever has.â
He scoffs and comes to stand beside you at the table. âYou could have gone anywhere on Dragonback. Why did you come here?â
âI considered going to Essos, but when Kain was in the sky, I told him to take us home.â
âAnd Dragonstone feels like home to you?â He asks sarcastically.
âNo, but Jacaerys does.â
He rolls his eyes, âthatâs very touching but you have brought fucking chaos into our house. And I want to know what you're planning to do about it?â
âI want revenge.â
âThat is all very touching, but you have brought fucking chaos into our home.â Daemon rolls his eyes. âAnd I want to know what you're planning to do about it, niece?â
âI want revenge.â

One Mistake - Aemond Targaryen x Sister!Reader x Jace Velaryon.
Summary : You, the daughter of Alicent Hightower, once married to Aemond Targaryen, find yourself in a marriage born out of duty rather than love. The relationship with Aemond has always been a battleground of lies and heartache, and the arrival of a child born from his affair with Alys Rivers only deepens the chasm between you both.Heartbroken, betrayed, and feeling utterly alone, you escape the suffocating walls of Kingâs Landing, seeking solace in Dragonstone with your half-sister, Rhaenyra. In this new chapter of your life, you begin to heal, finding peace in the company of those who truly care for you. Among them is Jace, the son of Rhaenyra, whose quiet affection and steady presence begins to rekindle the spark of hope in your heart.
Aemond Targaryen Masterlist.
HOTD Masterlist.
The tension in the air was thick, and your grip on the dagger tightened with every passing second. Aemond stood before you, unnervingly calm, his cold, piercing gaze meeting yours without a hint of fear. His posture remained relaxed, almost as if the weapon at his throat didnât even faze him. But you couldnât hold back the wave of fury that surged through you.
âAemond,â you hissed, your voice laced with venom, âyouâve crossed a line this time.â
Aemondâs gaze shifted, his lips twitching with an almost imperceptible smile. âYou always knew who I was, my love,â he replied, his tone ice-cold. âDid you really expect me to be loyal to you when the world has so much more to offer?â
Behind you, you could hear your mother, Alicent, and your sister, Helaena, desperately trying to intervene, pleading for you to put down the dagger. Their words were mere background noise to the storm inside your chest. The rage that had been quietly simmering for so long had finally boiled over.
You had tolerated his affairs, his coldness, his absence, but this⌠This was unforgivable. Alys River, the woman from Harrenhal, had come to your doorstep, a newborn in her arms, declaring that Aemond was the father. The mere thought of him being involved with someone else, and now with a child, was enough to break you.
âIs this your child, Aemond?â you spat, the words dripping with anger. âAre you really that heartless? Alys River, that harlot⌠You never cared about what you did to me, did you?â
Aemondâs eyes flickered, a trace of somethingâguilt, regretâflickering in them for a moment before he schooled his features back into their usual icy mask.
âI never wanted this, you know,â you said, voice shaking with a mixture of hurt and fury. âIâve tried, Aemond. Iâve tried to make it work. But you⌠youâve made a mockery of everything.â
Your breath was ragged, and the dagger trembled slightly in your hand, yet you couldnât bring yourself to step back.
Aemond finally spoke, his voice as cold and detached as ever. âPut the dagger down, sister,â he said, his tone almost bored. âYouâre not going to do anything.â
But you were done listening to his calm and calculating words. The betrayal had cut too deep, and the anger was too overwhelming. You didnât care if he thought you were weak or if you would never see him the same way again. You couldnât forgive him for this.
In a brief moment of clarity, you heard your motherâs voice, soft yet urgent, trying to calm you down. âPlease, my child, think about what youâre doing.â
But the damage was already done. There was no coming back from this.
With trembling hands, you dropped the dagger, the metallic clang echoing through the room as it hit the floor. You stepped back from Aemond, his gaze unwavering, his silence deafening. The image of Alys Rivers holding a silver-haired baby replayed in your mind, each recollection stabbing your heart anew. Despair consumed you, the weight of your shattered marriage pressing down on you like a crushing wave.
Without a word, you turned and fled the room, the voices of your mother and sister calling after you lost in the whirlwind of your emotions. Tears streamed down your face as you ran through the halls of the Red Keep, seeking solace, but finding none. The pain was overwhelming, the betrayal unbearable. After what felt like an eternity, your feet led you to the door of your old chamber, the sanctuary you once called home before your marriage to Aemond.
You pushed the door open, only to find Alys Rivers inside, cradling the infant in her arms. Her presence in what was once your refuge felt like a dagger twisting in your heart. She looked up, her expression calm, almost smug.
âAemond asked me to stay here,â she said, her voice soft, yet cutting. âHe wanted me to be comfortable.â
The finality of her words shattered whatever remnants of hope you clung to. Rage and grief intertwined, fueling your steps as you slammed the door shut and stormed back to your marital chambers. The hallways blurred in your vision, your emotions a chaotic storm.
Once inside your chamber, you shut the door and locked it, leaning against the cold wood as your breath came in ragged gasps. The room, once a symbol of your union with Aemond, now felt suffocating.
A soft knock on the door pulled you from your thoughts, followed by Aemondâs voice, calm and composed.
âLet me in,â he said.
You clenched your fists, your nails digging into your palms. âWhy should I?â your voice broke, laced with anger and sorrow. âYouâve made it clear where your loyalties lie.â
There was a pause, then his voice came again, quieter this time. âYou are my wife. This is your home.â
You let out a bitter laugh. âA wife youâve betrayed, a home youâve filled with deceit. How can you stand there and speak of loyalty?â
Aemondâs silence spoke louder than any words. You turned away from the door, wrapping your arms around yourself, seeking comfort in the emptiness of the room. The weight of his betrayal pressed on you, each moment more unbearable than the last.
You isolated yourself for days, the world outside your chamber fading into a blur. The persistent knocks at your door, the gentle pleas of your mother, the worried whispers of your sisterâthey all went unanswered. You sat by the window, gazing down at the sharp iron spikes below, their menacing points gleaming in the pale light. The thought crossed your mind, a fleeting, desperate idea, but you dismissed it just as quickly. You were heartbroken, but not mad.
The whispers reached you even in the silence of your solitude, the rumors carried on the wind like a cruel taunt. They spoke of Aemond visiting Alys Riversâ chambers, cradling his illegitimate son with pride. Each word felt like a dagger twisting in your chest, a fresh wound on top of the ones that already bled.
You thought of the promises Aemond had made to you, the soft words of love whispered in the dark, the vows of loyalty and devotion. They felt like hollow echoes now, every one of them a lie. How easily had he cast aside those vows? How quickly had he turned to another, to Alys, and their child?
Your hand drifted to the windowsill, fingers tracing the cold stone as your mind spiraled deeper into despair. The betrayal consumed you, leaving little room for anything else. The image of Aemond, once a source of comfort and strength, now filled you with anguish. His eyes, once filled with affection, were now a haunting memory of deceit.
Each day felt longer than the last, the weight of his infidelity pressing down on you, suffocating and relentless. You thought of your love, the life you had envisioned together, now reduced to ashes. The future you had once dreamed of seemed distant, almost unreachable, as if it had belonged to another lifetime entirely.
You pulled the thin blanket around you tighter, as if it could shield you from the pain. But nothing could shield you from the truth. The man you loved had betrayed you, and no amount of time could change that.
The searing pain in your abdomen jolted you awake, sharp and relentless, unlike anything you had ever felt before. Instinctively, your hand flew to your stomach, clutching at the source of the agony. Each wave of pain grew stronger, rippling through your body and leaving you breathless. Desperation drove you to rise from your bed, to make your way to the door and seek help, but your legs gave out beneath you. You crumpled to the floor, the cold stone pressing against your skin as you gasped for air.
It was then you noticed the blood pooling between your legs, staining your nightgown and the floor beneath you. Panic surged through you, your breaths coming in short, ragged gasps as tears welled up in your eyes. You tried to call out, your voice weak and trembling, barely louder than a whisper. âHelp,â you managed, your voice cracking under the weight of fear and pain.
Outside your chamber, your motherâs voice called to you, her tone laced with concern. She had come again, hoping to coax you out of your self-imposed isolation. But this time, as she turned the handle, she found the door unlocked. Pushing it open, she was greeted by a scene that made her blood run cold.
âAemond!â she cried, her voice echoing through the halls as she rushed to your side. Her hands trembled as she tried to steady you, her heart pounding in her chest. âSomeone, help!â she shouted, her voice breaking with desperation.
Aemond arrived moments later, his eyes widening in horror at the sight of you sprawled on the floor, pale and drenched in blood. His feet seemed rooted to the spot, unable to move as he watched you in your fragile state. The guilt in his eyes was unmistakable, but he didnât dare approach.
The maester arrived swiftly, his presence a blur as he stand beside your bed and assessed the situation. His face was grim as he delivered the devastating news. âShe has lost the child,â he said softly, the weight of his words hanging heavily in the air. âThe stress and lack of nourishment have taken their toll.â
The words hit you like a physical blow, knocking the breath from your lungs. You hadnât even known you were carrying a child, and now that life was gone, ripped away before you could even comprehend its existence. The sobs wracked your body, uncontrollable and raw, as the reality of your loss settled over you.
Your mother gathered you in her arms, her own tears falling silently as she held you close, offering what little comfort she could. You clung to her, your cries muffled against her shoulder, the pain too immense to bear alone.
Aemond remained on the periphery, his face etched with anguish. He reached out, but then drew back, the weight of his actions pressing down on him. He had betrayed you, and now, in your moment of greatest need, he was powerless to ease your suffering.
In your motherâs embrace, you felt a small measure of solace, but the ache in your heart was far from healed. You had lost your child, and with it, a piece of yourself. The pain would linger, a constant reminder of the love and life that had been taken from you too soon.
The days passed in a blur of pain and sorrow. You remained confined to your chambers, your heart weighed down by the unbearable grief of losing your child. The world outside your room seemed distant, muffled by the heavy fog of your sadness. Your mother, Alicent, and your sister, Helaena, visited frequently, bringing food and comfort. They tried to coax you into eating, but you could only lie listlessly as they fed you, your appetite lost in the depths of your despair.
Aemond had not come to see you since that fateful night. His absence was a bitter reminder of the distance that had grown between you. You had heard the whispers, the murmurs that he spent his nights with Alys Rivers and their illegitimate child. Each rumor cut deeper than the last, fueling your anger and deepening your sorrow. The betrayal burned in your chest, an open wound that refused to heal.
But today was different. As you lay in your bed, the door to your chamber creaked open. Expecting your mother or sister, you turned your head, only to find Aemond standing in the doorway. His expression was cold, his gaze hard as he stared at you.
âI lost my child because of you,â he said, his voice devoid of any warmth or understanding. The accusation hung in the air, heavy and cruel.
You felt your heart shatter anew, his words slicing through the fragile threads that held you together. âHow dare you,â you whispered, your voice trembling with rage and sorrow. âHow dare you blame me for this.â
The pain and fury erupted from you in a torrent. You screamed at him, your voice raw with anguish. âIt was you! It was your betrayal that brought me here! Your lies, your infidelity! You destroyed everything, not me!â
Aemond stood there, silent and unmoved, as you poured your heart out, blaming him for your suffering, for the loss of your child, for the broken pieces of your marriage. The tears streamed down your face, your body shaking with the force of your sobs.
Finally, exhausted and broken, you collapsed back onto the bed, your cries filling the room. The pain was too much to bear, the weight of your grief pressing down on you, suffocating and unrelenting.
A soft voice broke through the haze of your sorrow. Your mother, Alicent, stood at the doorway, her expression a mix of concern and confusion. âWhy are you not resting?â she asked gently. âWhy are you shouting at Aemond?â
Her presence only seemed to heighten your despair. âBecause he blames me, Mother,â you choked out, your voice thick with tears. âHe blames me for losing our child, for everything that has gone wrong. But itâs not my fault. Itâs not my fault.â
Alicent hurried to your side, her arms wrapping around you in a comforting embrace. She stroked your hair, murmuring soothing words as you sobbed into her shoulder. Aemond remained by the door, his face unreadable, but he did not approach. The distance between you was more than physical now; it was a chasm filled with unspoken words, broken promises, and irreparable pain.
As your mother held you, your tears finally began to subside, leaving behind a hollow ache in your chest. The pain would not disappear, but for now, you found solace in the comfort of your motherâs arms, even as your heart ached with the loss and betrayal that Aemond had left in his wake.
The pain of Aemondâs betrayal was no longer something you could endure. His indifference, the whispers of his continued affair with Alys Rivers and the child that belonged to her, cut deeper each day. You couldnât bear to stay in the Red Keep any longer, not with the constant reminder of what you had lost. Tonight, you made a decision: you would leave. You would find peace away from the walls of Kingâs Landing, away from Aemond and the deceit.
The cold night air filled your lungs as you quietly made your way through the corridors of the Red Keep, your heart pounding with the weight of your decision. You couldnât stay here. You couldnât bear another day in that house of betrayal and lies. You had to go, and Dragonstone would be your refuge, the one place where you could find solace in the company of your sister, Rhaenyra, and her family.
With a heavy heart, you made your way to the stables. The quiet rustle of the night was the only sound that accompanied your footsteps. The guards, bribed and loyal, had cleared the way for you, their eyes flicking nervously around as they ensured no one would stop you. You quickly saddled your horse, the familiar motions of preparing your steed offering a brief distraction from the turmoil inside you.
Once mounted, you headed for the Dragonpit, the shadows of the night enveloping you as you approached the towering structure. There, waiting for you, was Sharapis, your dragon. His massive form loomed in the shadows, his eyes gleaming as you approached. You had always felt a connection to him, a bond forged from years of companionship and shared journeys.
âSharapis,â you whispered softly as you mounted his back, the dragonâs scales glimmering in the moonlight. His wings stretched out as if eager to fly, and with a single command, you took off into the night sky, soaring toward Dragonstone.
The flight was exhilarating, the wind rushing through your hair as you felt the freedom that had long been denied you. But beneath it all was the ache of betrayal, the loss of a child you had never even known, and the quiet despair that had taken root in your soul. The journey felt both endless and too short, your thoughts lost in the vastness of the night.
As you descended toward Dragonstone, you could see the familiar silhouette of the castle looming in the distance. Your heart fluttered with a mix of relief and uncertainty. You had made the decision to leave everything behind, but now that you were here, would it be enough to heal the wounds Aemond had inflicted?
When Sharapis landed, you dismounted and quickly made your way into the castle. The cold stone floors echoed beneath your feet as you walked toward the heart of Dragonstone. The guards at the entrance saw you and immediately went to alert Rhaenyra and Daemon. The sounds of hurried footsteps soon followed as your half-sister and her husband arrived, her face filled with surprise and concern.
âWhy have you come here?â Rhaenyra asked, her voice soft yet filled with urgency. She could see the state you were in, the exhaustion and pain written across your features. âWhat has happened?â
You took a deep breath, your eyes meeting hers. âI couldnât stay there anymore,â you confessed, your voice breaking slightly. âAemond⌠Heâs with her again, and I canât bear it. I lost our child, Rhaenyra, and I canât stay in the place that reminds me of all the lies and betrayal. I need to get away, to heal, and I couldnât stay in Kingâs Landing a moment longer.â
Rhaenyra stepped closer, her hands reaching for yours. âYou are always welcome here,â she said with conviction. âYou donât have to face this alone. Whatever happened, whatever you need, we will help you through it.â
The warmth of her support was a balm to your broken heart. You felt the weight of the world slowly begin to lift as she surrounded you with love and understanding. She hadnât asked for details, and she didnât need to. You could see in her eyes that they understood.
Tears welled up in your eyes, and you couldnât hold them back any longer. The weight of the journey, the betrayal, the grief of losing your child, and the decision to leave it all behind finally caught up with you. In the safety of Dragonstone, you allowed yourself to break down, to grieve openly, knowing that here, at least, you would not be alone.
Rhaenyra held you tightly, offering you the comfort you so desperately needed, while Daemon stood a few steps behind, his gaze never leaving you.
âYou will find peace again,â Rhaenyra whispered. âHere, with us, you are safe.â
As the morning sun cast its golden light over the Red Keep, your mother, Alicent, made her way to your chamber with a calm determination. She had come to check on you, as she did every morning, hoping that today might bring a glimmer of progress in your healing. However, as she gently pushed open the door, she was met with an empty room. Her heart skipped a beat, a sense of unease creeping in as she took in the sight of your untouched bed and the quiet stillness of the space.
Her eyes quickly fell upon a piece of parchment resting on the pillow. With trembling hands, she picked it up, unfolding it carefully. The words written in your familiar hand made her breath catch in her throat.
âMother, do not worry about me, and do not try to find me. I have gone where I can heal and find peace. Please, annulled the arrangement of my marriage with Aemond. It is over. There is nothing left for me here.â
Alicentâs fingers tightened around the letter as a surge of emotions washed over herârelief that you were safe enough to leave a note, sadness at your departure, and a rising fury toward the one who had driven you to such despair.
Clutching the letter tightly, Alicent turned on her heel, her face set in a mask of anger. She knew exactly where to find Aemond. Her footsteps echoed loudly in the hallways as she marched toward your old chamber, the one where she knew Aemond was staying with Alys and their illegitimate child. Each step fueled her anger, her mind racing with thoughts of how Aemond had betrayed not only you but also the familyâs honor.
When she reached the door, she didnât bother to knock. Instead, she pushed it open with force, her eyes blazing as she entered. Inside, she found Aemond standing near the window, Alys seated with the infant in her arms. The air in the room grew tense as they turned to face her, Alysâs expression a mixture of surprise and smug satisfaction.
Aemondâs usual calm demeanor faltered as he saw the letter in Alicentâs hand and the fire in her eyes. âMother,â he began, but Alicent cut him off, her voice cold and sharp.
âDo not âMotherâ me,â she snapped, holding up the letter. âExplain this. Explain why my daughter, your wife, felt the need to flee from her home in the dead of night because of your actions.â
Aemondâs jaw tightened, but he said nothing, his gaze flickering briefly to Alys, who remained silent, cradling her child.
âYou have disgraced our family,â Alicent continued, her voice trembling with controlled rage. âYou have broken her heart, her spirit. And now, you will face the consequences. I will see to it that this marriage is annulled. She deserves better than this, better than you.â
Aemondâs lips pressed into a thin line, but he did not argue. The weight of his actions hung heavily in the room, and even Alys seemed uncomfortable under Alicentâs furious gaze.
âI will not allow this to continue,â Alicent declared. âYou will leave her be. You will not pursue her, and you will not bring further shame upon this family.â
With that, Alicent turned on her heel, her grip on the letter unrelenting as she strode out of the room. Her heart ached for you, for the pain you had endured, but she was resolute. She would do everything in her power to protect you and to ensure that you found the peace you deserved.
Almost two years had passed since you left the Red Keep behind, finding solace and a new beginning in Dragonstone. The pain and betrayal you once felt had slowly been replaced by the warmth of your family, especially Rhaenyra and her children. Your days were now filled with laughter and peace, and the exchange of letters with your mother had become a comforting routine. She had informed you that the annulment of your marriage to Aemond had been finalized, a message that brought a profound sense of relief. You were free, truly free, from the chains of a past that had once broken you.
Life in Dragonstone had become your sanctuary. The walls, the sea, and the skies felt like home, a place where you could breathe and live without the shadows of your past looming over you. In this haven, you had grown close to Jace. His kindness, his understanding, and his gentle presence had slowly woven their way into your heart. He had been a constant source of support, offering you companionship and care as you healed from the wounds Aemond had left behind.
One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden hue over the castle, Jace asked you to walk with him along the cliffs. The salty breeze played with your hair as you strolled side by side, the silence between you comfortable and familiar. Jace had always been thoughtful, but tonight there was a certain tension in the air, a nervous energy you hadnât felt from him before.
He paused near the edge of the cliff, the crashing waves below providing a soothing backdrop to the moment. Turning to face you, he took a deep breath, his eyes searching yours with a mix of hope and vulnerability.
âIâve been thinking about this for a long time,â he began, his voice steady but laced with emotion. âYouâve been through so much, and yet, here you are, strong and resilient. Being with you these past two years has been the happiest time of my life.â
Your heart began to race, a mixture of anticipation and surprise swirling within you.
âI know you might think itâs too soon, or that youâre not ready, but I need you to know how I feel,â he continued, reaching for your hands and holding them gently. âI love you, and I want to spend my life with you. Will you marry me?â
His words hung in the air, filled with sincerity and love. You could see the earnestness in his eyes, the way he waited anxiously for your response, hoping you felt the same.
For a moment, memories of the past flickered in your mind, but they were quickly overshadowed by the warmth of the present, the life you had built here, the love that had grown between you and Jace. He had been patient, never rushing you, always understanding.
A soft smile spread across your face as you squeezed his hands. âYes, Jace,â you whispered, tears of joy welling in your eyes. âIâll marry you.â
His face lit up with relief and happiness, and before you knew it, he had pulled you into a tight embrace, holding you as if you were the most precious thing in the world. In his arms, you felt safe, loved, and ready to begin this new chapter of your life, a chapter filled with love, hope, and the promise of a future together.
As you and Jace walked hand in hand back into the castle, your hearts were light with joy and anticipation. The corridors of Dragonstone felt warmer tonight, the stone walls echoing with the soft whispers of your shared future. When you reached the great hall, Rhaenyra and Daemon were seated by the hearth, engaged in a quiet conversation. Their attention shifted as you both entered, Jace leading you forward.
Jaceâs hand squeezed yours gently as he addressed his mother. âMother, we have something to share,â he began, his voice filled with excitement. âWeâve decided to marry. She has agreed to be my wife.â
Rhaenyraâs eyes lit up with happiness, a broad smile spreading across her face. She stood and stepped forward, taking both your hands in hers. âThis is wonderful news,â she said, her voice warm with genuine joy. âI am so happy for both of you.â
Her embrace was tight and filled with love, as if welcoming you fully into her family. It was a moment of acceptance and celebration, her blessing clear and heartfelt.
However, as your eyes shifted to Daemon, his expression was more reserved. His jaw tightened slightly, and though he didnât speak immediately, you could sense the conflict within him. The legacy of your mother, Alicent, and the tensions that had long simmered between their families were not easily forgotten. Yet, he held his tongue, his gaze meeting yours with a guarded intensity.
âCongratulations,â Daemon finally said, his tone measured, but his words carrying a hint of reluctance. He rose to his feet, standing beside Rhaenyra. âI trust you will make each other happy.â
Though his words were polite, there was an underlying tension. He didnât openly oppose the union, but it was clear he harbored reservations, likely due to the history that bound your families in strife.
Jace, sensing the unease, stepped closer to you, his arm wrapping protectively around your waist. âWe understand this isnât easy,â he said, addressing Daemon directly. âBut we love each other, and we want to build a future together. Thatâs all that matters.â
Daemonâs eyes flicked to Jace, then back to you. After a long moment, he gave a slight nod, perhaps acknowledging the sincerity in Jaceâs words, or perhaps choosing to set aside his reservations for the sake of peace.
Rhaenyra, ever the peacemaker, placed a hand on Daemonâs arm, a silent plea for understanding. âWhat matters is that theyâve found happiness in each other,â she said softly. âLetâs celebrate that.â
Daemon exhaled, the tension in his shoulders easing ever so slightly. âVery well,â he conceded, though his tone was still tinged with reluctance. âLet it be a union of love.â
Relieved, you smiled, feeling Jaceâs reassuring presence beside you. Rhaenyraâs enthusiasm and Daemonâs begrudging acceptance were enough to make this moment a hopeful beginning. The path forward wouldnât be without challenges, but together, you knew you could face whatever came your way.
The day of your wedding dawned quietly, the morning mist wrapping Dragonstone in a serene embrace. Unlike the grand, ostentatious ceremonies you had once known, this day was intimate, marked by simplicity and the presence of only those closest to your heart. The small gathering was a reflection of the love you shared with Jace, a quiet yet profound celebration of a new beginning.
As you prepared in your chambers, Rhaenyra stood by your side, her presence a comforting anchor in the swirl of your emotions. She watched as you adjusted the delicate fabric of your gown, a soft smile playing on her lips. âYouâve been through so much,â she said, her voice gentle yet firm. âBut today is about youâyour happiness, your future. You deserve this joy, and Iâm so proud of you.â
Her words were a balm to your nerves, and you felt a wave of gratitude for her unwavering support. She had been more than a half-sister; she had become a true sister, a confidante in your darkest hours. Her hand found yours, squeezing it reassuringly. âThis is your moment,â she whispered. âTake it, and let yourself be happy.â
When the time came, you walked towards the small altar where Jace awaited, his eyes fixed on you with a mixture of love and awe. His presence was calming, his steady gaze promising a life of mutual respect and affection. The warmth of his smile as you reached his side steadied your racing heart, and the nervous flutter in your stomach eased as he took your hands in his.
The ceremony was brief, the words spoken simple yet heartfelt. Rhaenyra and Daemon stood beside you, their presence a testament to the new family you were building. Alicentâs absence was felt, but her blessings had been given through her letters, and you carried her love in your heart.
As the vows were exchanged, you felt a profound sense of peace wash over you. This was not a union born of duty or political gain, but one of genuine affection and shared dreams. Jaceâs hand in yours was a promise, a symbol of the partnership you were forging together.
When the ceremony concluded, and you were declared husband and wife, the small gathering erupted in soft applause. Jace leaned in, his lips brushing against yours in a kiss that sealed your new bond, a gentle reminder of the love that had brought you to this moment.
Later, as the day faded into night and the candles in the great hall flickered softly, you found yourself beside Jace, the simplicity of the day leaving you content. The weight of the past began to lift, replaced by the promise of a future filled with hope and love.
Rhaenyraâs words echoed in your mind, a reminder that you had earned this happiness. And as Jaceâs arm wrapped around your waist, drawing you closer, you knew that this was the beginning of a new chapterâone where you could finally find the peace and joy you had longed for.
Time seemed to slip through your fingers like grains of sand, each day blending seamlessly into the next. It felt as though only yesterday you and Jace stood before the small gathering, exchanging vows. Yet, here you were, sitting in the sun-dappled garden with Rhaenyra, her laughter mingling with the soft coos of little Aegon in her arms. The gentle breeze carried the scent of blooming flowers, and you rested a hand on your growing belly, feeling the life stirring within.
Rhaenyraâs teasing smile was as radiant as ever, her eyes twinkling with mischief. âYou know,â she began, a playful lilt in her voice, âDaemon and I couldnât sleep for weeks after your wedding. The walls here are not as thick as you might think.â Her laughter was infectious, and you felt your cheeks flush with warmth as you looked away, embarrassed yet unable to suppress a giggle.
âRhaenyra!â you protested, your tone a mixture of shock and amusement. The memories of those early daysâfilled with love, passion, and whispered promisesâwere vivid in your mind. The bond between you and Jace had deepened quickly, the love you shared blooming into something even more profound.
âBut look at the result,â Rhaenyra continued, her gaze dropping to your rounded belly. âIt seems all thatâŚenthusiasm bore fruit.â Her hand reached out, covering yours as it rested on your stomach. âYouâre glowing, and soon youâll have a little one of your own.â
The thought filled you with a mix of excitement and nervousness. The prospect of becoming a mother, of bringing a new life into the world, was both thrilling and daunting. But the support of Jace, Rhaenyra, and the family you had found in Dragonstone gave you strength.
Rhaenyraâs voice softened, the teasing edge replaced with genuine warmth. âYouâll be an amazing mother,â she said. âThis child will be so loved, surrounded by a family that cherishes them.â
You nodded, a small smile playing on your lips as you felt a kick from within, a gentle reminder of the life growing inside you. The future was filled with promise, and as you sat there, surrounded by love and laughter, you felt a profound sense of peace.
âThank you, Rhaenyra,â you whispered, your voice filled with gratitude. âFor everything.â
Rhaenyra squeezed your hand, her expression one of sisterly affection. âWeâre family,â she replied. âAnd we take care of our own.â
As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the garden, you leaned back in your chair, contentment washing over you. The journey had been long and fraught with challenges, but now, with a new life growing within you and a family that stood by your side, you felt ready to embrace whatever the future held.
Jace had grown into a devoted and attentive husband, always watching over you with a protective fervor that bordered on overbearing. His love and concern were palpable, and while you appreciated his attentiveness, there were moments when you wished for a bit more freedom. Today was one such instance.
As you sat in the garden with Rhaenyra, basking in the afternoon sun, you heard Jace calling your name. His voice, laced with a mixture of worry and relief, reached you before he did. You turned to see him striding towards you, his brow furrowed, still slightly sweaty from his training session with Luke.
âWhere have you been?â he asked, his tone gentle yet firm. âI looked for you in our chambers, but you werenât there.â
You offered a reassuring smile, hoping to ease his concerns. âI was just spending some time with your mother in the garden. I didnât want to disturb your training, and I felt like getting some fresh air.â
Jace knelt beside you, his hands gently cradling your face as he searched your eyes for any sign of discomfort or distress. âYou should have told me,â he murmured. âI donât like you wandering around alone, especially not now.â
His gaze flicked to your growing belly, a tender smile tugging at his lips. The worry in his eyes softened, replaced by the gentle adoration he always showed when thinking about the child you were carrying.
âIâm fine, Jace,â you reassured him, placing a hand over his. âRhaenyra was with me the whole time.â
Rhaenyra chuckled softly from her seat, watching the exchange with amusement. âJace, sheâs perfectly safe here. You donât need to hover over her every moment.â
âI canât help it,â Jace admitted, his cheeks coloring slightly. âI justâŚI worry.â
You squeezed his hand, appreciating his concern but also wanting him to understand. âI know, and I love that you care so much. But I need you to trust that Iâll take care of myself too.â
He nodded, sighing softly as he pressed a kiss to your forehead. âIâll try. But Iâll always worry about you.â
Standing, Jace offered his hand to help you up, his protective nature not allowing him to let you rise on your own. âCome on, letâs get you inside. Itâs getting cooler.â
With his arm around your waist, guiding you carefully back to the castle, you felt a sense of warmth and security. Jaceâs love, though sometimes overwhelming, was steadfast and unwavering. It was a love you cherished, knowing that it came from a place of deep devotion and care.
As you entered your shared chamber, Jace guided you gently to the bed, urging you to sit and rest. He knelt before you, deftly removing your shoes, his fingers tenderly massaging your ankles. His touch was soothing, filled with care, as he leaned in to place a soft kiss on your growing belly. His hands caressed your abdomen, his lips following with a whisper meant for the baby you both eagerly awaited.
âYouâve been so good to your mother,â Jace murmured, his voice full of affection. âWe canât wait to meet you.â
You smiled down at him, your fingers threading through his hair as you basked in the warmth of the moment. The quiet intimacy was interrupted by the sound of the door opening, and a servant entered, carrying a sealed letter. The servant handed it to you with a respectful bow before retreating.
Curiosity piqued, you broke the seal, recognizing the familiar handwriting of your mother, Alicent. The contents of the letter were an invitation to return to Kingâs Landing for a grand celebration in honor of King Viserysâs birthday. Your heart skipped a beat as you read her request, knowing the importance of the occasion. It was not just a celebration for the realmâs ruler, but a family gatheringâa chance to reconnect with your roots.
You looked up at Jace, who had been observing your reaction closely. âItâs from my mother,â you explained, handing him the letter. âSheâs inviting us to Kingâs Landing for my fatherâs birthday celebration.â
Jaceâs eyes scanned the letter, his brow furrowing slightly as he considered the implications. âDo you want to go?â he asked, his concern evident. âI know things are⌠complicated with your family.â
You sighed softly, placing a hand over his. âItâs complicated, yes. But itâs also important. Rhaenyra and Daemon will likely want to attend, and itâs a chance for me to see my family, despite everything. I think we should go.â
Jace nodded, his expression thoughtful. âIf thatâs what you want, weâll go. But Iâll be by your side the whole time. I wonât let anything happen to you or our child.â
His protective nature reassured you, easing some of the anxiety that had begun to creep in. âThank you, Jace. I feel better knowing youâll be with me."
As the two of you sat together, contemplating the journey ahead, a sense of anticipation mingled with the lingering tension of old wounds. The road to Kingâs Landing would not just be a physical journey, but an emotional one as wellâa step towards confronting the past and embracing whatever the future might hold for your family.
The towering spires of the Red Keep came into view, casting long shadows over the bustling port of Kingâs Landing. You stood at the edge of the shipâs deck, the sea breeze tugging at your gown as you gazed at the familiar yet distant city. Jace was at your side, his arm a comforting presence around your waist, his hand resting protectively over the swell of your belly. His touch was a constant reminder that, no matter what awaited you in the capital, you were not alone.
You turned your head slightly, catching sight of Rhaenyra and Daemon nearby. They, too, were watching the city approach, their expressions a mix of resolve and nostalgia. For them, like for you, this was more than just a visitâit was a return to a place filled with memories, both bitter and sweet.
Leaning into Jaceâs shoulder, you allowed yourself a moment of quiet respite, closing your eyes as his arms encircled you. The journey had been taxing, especially given your current condition, and the looming prospect of facing your past weighed heavily on your mind. Yet, in Jaceâs embrace, you found a sense of peace and strength, a reminder of the life you were building together, far removed from the shadows of Kingâs Landing.
Jace pressed a gentle kiss to the top of your head, his voice soft and reassuring. âWeâll get through this together,â he whispered. âNo matter what happens, Iâll be here.â
You nodded, clutching his hand a little tighter. The city grew larger, its walls drawing closer as the ship made its final approach. The sight of it stirred a whirlwind of emotions within youâanticipation, dread, hope. As the Red Keep loomed ever nearer, you took a deep breath, steeling yourself for the days to come. You had left this place as a broken woman, but now you were returning stronger, with a family of your own to protect and cherish.
Whatever awaited you within those stone walls, you knew that with Jace by your side, you could face it.
As you stepped down carefully from the carriage, the bustling courtyard of the Red Keep greeted you with its usual cacophony. Servants scurried about, arms laden with decorations and provisions for the grand celebration planned for King Viserysâs birthday. The air buzzed with excitement, yet you felt a weariness settle over you, the long journey from Dragonstone taking its toll.
Jace was immediately at your side, his hand steadying you as he helped you out of the carriage. His eyes searched yours, concern etched across his face. âAre you all right?â he asked gently, his voice barely audible over the din around you.
You nodded, though exhaustion weighed heavily on your shoulders. âJust tired,â you admitted softly.
Rhaenyra and Daemon approached, their expressions a mix of anticipation and something elseâperhaps trepidationâgiven the complex dynamics that awaited within the Keep. As they prepared to make their way toward the throne room to greet King Viserys, you turned to Rhaenyra with a small, apologetic smile.
âWould it be all right if we went straight to our chambers?â you asked. âI need to rest.â
Rhaenyraâs face softened with understanding, and she nodded. âOf course,â she said. âTake your time. Weâll see you at the feast later.â
Daemon gave a brief nod of agreement, his gaze lingering on you for a moment before he turned to follow his wife into the heart of the Keep.
With Jaceâs arm firmly around your waist, you made your way through the familiar halls of the Red Keep. The grand corridors seemed both unchanged and yet different, imbued with memories that felt like they belonged to another life. As you walked, you couldnât help but notice the way the servantsâ eyes widened in shock at the sight of you. Whispers followed in your wake, their astonishment clear as they took in the sight of the daughter of Alicent Hightower, once married to Prince Aemond, now heavily pregnant and walking arm in arm with Prince Jacaerys Velaryon.
Jaceâs grip on you tightened, a silent show of support against the unspoken judgments that hung in the air. He leaned in close, his voice a low murmur meant only for you. âLet them stare,â he said, a hint of defiance in his tone. âThey donât know your strength, or ours.â
You glanced up at him, a small smile tugging at the corners of your lips despite your fatigue. His unwavering support was a balm to your frayed nerves, and you found comfort in the steady rhythm of his steps beside you.
As you finally reached the familiar doors of your chambers, Jace opened them for you, ushering you inside before closing the door firmly behind you. The quiet of the room was a welcome reprieve from the noise outside. He guided you to the bed, helping you sit before kneeling in front of you, his hands resting on your knees.
âYouâve been incredible through all of this,â he said, his eyes full of admiration. âRest now. Iâll be right here if you need anything.â
You nodded, your heart swelling with gratitude and love. As you lay back against the pillows, Jace settled beside you, his presence a reassuring anchor in a world that still felt uncertain.
As you turned, the door to your chambers slowly creaked open, and there, standing in the doorway, was your mother, Alicent, her eyes filled with unshed tears. Beside her stood Heleana, your sister, who looked at you with a mixture of concern and love. They both stepped inside, and without a word, they enveloped you in a warm embrace.
The familiar scent of your motherâs perfume and the comforting presence of Heleana brought a sense of peace you hadnât realized you longed for. You felt a lump form in your throat as your mother spoke, her voice thick with emotion.
âIâve missed you so much,â she whispered, her hand gently brushing through your hair. Heleana joined in, wrapping her arms around you, her voice soft but filled with affection. âWeâve both missed you.â
Tears welled in your eyes, not just from the pain of the past but from the sudden realization that despite everything, they were here, with you now. You had built a new life, but the love of familyâthose who truly caredâwas something that always remained.
Your mother, pulling back slightly, gazed at Jace, who had stood silently by your side, his protective arm still around you. She took a deep breath before speaking again, her voice steady but laden with regret. âI⌠I want to thank you, Jace,â she said, her words sincere. âFor giving her what she truly deserves. For loving her the way she should have always been loved.â
She paused, her gaze shifting to the floor briefly before lifting it again to meet his eyes. âIâm sorry,â she continued, her voice now tinged with sorrow. âFor everything. The way I treated you, and your family. You did not deserve that.â
Jace, ever the steady presence, simply nodded, his eyes softening as he met her gaze. âItâs in the past,â he replied gently. âWe move forward now.â
A brief silence followed, the weight of the past few years hanging between them. But in this moment, there was understanding, a step toward healing. Your motherâs apology, though not easy for her to give, had an undeniable sincerity. You could see it in the way her hands trembled slightly as she clasped her own in front of her.
Heleana, who had been silently observing, finally spoke up, her voice gentle. âYou deserve happiness, both of you,â she said, her eyes filled with warmth. âIâm happy for you. For the family youâve created.â
Her words were like a balm to the wounds that had been left untreated for so long. And as the room settled into a peaceful silence, you felt an overwhelming sense of relief. It wasnât just the apology or the reconciliationâit was the simple truth that, despite everything, you had a family that still cared for you, and that love was worth rebuilding.
Your motherâs gentle hand traced your growing belly, her touch warm and tender, as she smiled softly at you. âYou look radiant,â she said, her voice full of affection, her eyes glimmering with love. She kissed your forehead, a motherly gesture that made your heart swell. âIâm so proud of you,â she added quietly, her voice filled with emotions she didnât often let slip.
Rhaenyra, who had been moving around the room, paused to look at you. Her expression softened, a knowing smile curving on her lips. âYou should rest,â she said, stepping forward to help with your things despite your protests. âLet us do this. Youâre carrying the future, after all.â
You tried to decline, wanting to take care of things yourself, but Rhaenyra was insistent, and her tone was kind but firm. âItâs not about what you can doâitâs about what we can do for you now.â With that, she motioned to her attendants, who began to unpack your belongings and arrange them carefully.
Despite your desire to remain independent, there was something comforting in the care they showed you. Rhaenyraâs presence felt like a reminder of the family bonds you had begun to rebuild, and your motherâs soft touch was a reminder that, despite everything, love had endured.
You sighed, a sense of peace settling over you as you allowed them to help. It was clear that both your mother and Rhaenyra wanted to support youâespecially now, during this delicate time. Their kindness, in its simplicity, was more than you had ever expected. It was healing in its own way, allowing you to finally feel at ease, even amidst all the changes in your life.
As the room began to take shape with the items that had been moved and arranged, Rhaenyra smiled at you. âYou deserve this happiness. You deserve to rest, to be cared for.â
Your heart swelled with gratitude, and you reached out, squeezing Rhaenyraâs hand gently. âThank you,â you said softly, knowing that no matter the journey youâd been on, this momentâthis sense of familyâwas the true gift.
You let out a small, frustrated sigh as you looked at the dresses hanging before you. The reality of your growing belly settled in as you tried on one gown after another, only to find that none of them fit quite like they used to. Each attempt left you feeling more disheartened. The grand celebration tonight, your chance to present yourself to the court and your family, was approaching, but the idea of not having anything suitable to wear only made you feel more exposed.
You muttered under your breath, cursing softly at the fact that none of your formal gowns fit anymore. âWhy did it have to be tonight?â you mumbled, feeling a growing sense of annoyance. The last thing you wanted was to feel like you were drawing attention to the changes in your bodyâsomething that had already been the source of too many complicated emotions.
As you stepped out of the gown you had just tried on, you caught a glimpse of your reflection in the mirror. For a moment, you stared at yourself, unsure of how to feel. The weight of everythingâthe pregnancy, the marriage, the responsibilityâhad taken its toll. And yet, beneath the surface, there was a flicker of excitement. Tonight was about celebrating, about reclaiming some sense of joy after everything you had been through.
You shook off your frustration and took a deep breath. You needed to find something, something that would make you feel confident. After all, this night was not just about appearancesâit was about embracing who you had become, and all that you were carrying with you, literally and figuratively.
Just as you were about to give up, a familiar voice called out from the door.
âNeed a little help?â Jace stood there, leaning against the frame of the door, his usual warmth and concern written on his face.
You smiled softly at him, despite the frustration bubbling inside. âI canât find anything that fits for tonight,â you admitted, your voice tinged with exasperation.
You blinked in surprise as Jace gestured toward one of the servants. âPlease bring the dress Iâve prepared for her,â he said with a smile, his voice carrying the tone of someone who knew exactly what was needed. You watched in confusion as the servant returned with a beautiful gown in her hands.
The gown was a striking combination of deep red and black, the colors of House Targaryen. It was unlike any of the dresses you had worn beforeâbold, yet elegant, fitting for the occasion. You could hardly believe it when Jace explained.
âI knew the formal gowns wouldnât fit you anymore, so I had something made for you,â Jace said softly, walking over to you with a small smile on his lips. âI wanted you to feel like yourself tonight, regardless of⌠well, everything else.â
As the servant helped you into the gown, you couldnât help but feel a sense of gratitude and warmth toward Jace. It was so thoughtful of him, and it showed how much he cared. The fabric fit comfortably, accentuating your form without being too tight, and the colors seemed to shimmer in the soft light of the room.
Jace stepped back, eyes scanning the gown with a proud glint in his eyes. âWhat do you think? Does it fit?â
You twirled around in the gown, the fabric flowing gracefully with each movement. It felt different from the gaudy or tight dresses you were used toâthis one felt like it had been made just for you, a perfect blend of your strength, your heritage, and the love that surrounded you now.
âItâs perfect,â you said, smiling at him with genuine appreciation. âThank you, Jace. This means more than you know.â
He grinned, the light in his eyes soft and affectionate. âAnything to make you feel special tonight,â he said. âAnd I think you already do.â
Your heart fluttered with a mix of emotions, but above all, you felt a deep sense of peace. With Jace by your side, you could face whatever the night held. And for the first time in a long while, you felt ready.
You stood before the mirror, gazing at your reflection, the elegant gown hugging your growing form. The deep red and black fabric seemed to hold your essence, a blend of strength and grace. Jace stood behind you, his arms wrapped gently around you, his hand resting on your swollen belly. The warmth of his touch grounded you, and a sense of peace settled in your chest.
As you stared into the mirror, you felt a small sigh escape your lips. The life you once knew, with its chaos and heartbreak, felt so far away now. The man behind youâJaceâwas all you had ever wanted in a partner. He loved you not because of duty or obligation, but because he truly saw you. The love he gave was not a burden; it was a gift, something youâd never known you needed but now couldnât live without.
Jaceâs voice, soft and tender, broke the silence. âYou look beautiful,â he whispered in your ear, his lips brushing against your skin as he spoke. âI canât believe how lucky I am to have you.â
His words made your heart flutter. There was no resentment, no bitterness in his toneâjust pure love. You turned your head slightly, catching his gaze in the mirror. His eyes were full of warmth, tenderness, and sincerity. His fingers moved slowly over your belly, caressing it as if holding your unborn child in reverence.
âI love you,â Jace whispered again, his voice a soothing melody that filled your heart with warmth. âMore than youâll ever know.â
You closed your eyes for a moment, savoring the feeling of his embrace. It was so different from the cold, harsh reality you had once endured. With Jace, there was no fear, no uncertaintyâonly love, acceptance, and a future that felt brighter than anything you had ever imagined.
âI love you too,â you murmured back, your voice thick with emotion. âYou make me feel safe. Happy.â
The moment stretched between you, both of you simply holding each other in the silence. It felt rightâlike this was where you were always meant to be. Aemondâs betrayal, the heartache you had suffered, seemed distant and small now, swallowed by the love and comfort that Jace had given you.
âTonight,â Jace said softly, breaking the quiet, âWeâll celebrate our new life. But for now, itâs just you and me. Iâm so grateful for thisâgrateful for you.â
You smiled, turning in his arms to face him completely. He leaned in to kiss you, a soft, gentle kiss that conveyed everything words could not. His love was overwhelming, and in his arms, you felt whole againâno longer the broken woman from before, but a woman who had been healed by the love of her true partner.
In this moment, nothing else mattered. Tonight, you would share the joy of your new beginning, but for now, you were content in the stillness, with Jace by your side, loving you like no one ever had before.
As you walked side by side with Jace into the grand hall, the sounds of laughter and celebration filled the air. The atmosphere was lively, but as soon as you entered, a hush fell over the room. All eyes turned toward you. The weight of their gaze was undeniable, but it was Jaceâs presence beside you that steadied your steps, grounding you amidst the scrutiny.
Your heart fluttered with nerves, but Jaceâs hand held yours firmly, his reassuring touch offering you solace. You walked confidently toward your father, Viserys, who sat at the head of the table. A smile spread across his face as he looked at you, his eyes softening as they landed on your belly. He stood to greet you, his voice warm and welcoming.
âCongratulations,â he said, his gaze flicking briefly to your swollen belly before returning to meet your eyes. âI am so happy for both of you.â
You smiled back, the words of your father bringing a small sense of comfort. Jace squeezed your hand, his pride evident in the way he stood next to you. For a moment, the world seemed to narrow to just the two of you and your new beginning.
But as you made your way forward, you couldnât ignore the intense gaze from across the room. Aemond sat at the far end of the table, his cold eyes locked onto you and Jace. His expression was unreadable, his lips set in a tight line as he stared without saying a word. Next to him, Alys sat silently, her child resting in her lapâan image that seemed to freeze your heart.
The sight of Aemond, his gaze piercing and distant, brought a tightness to your chest. You could feel his disapproval radiating from him, a silent accusation in his eyes. The child in his lap, a reminder of his betrayal, only added to the tension that pulsed between you.
You could almost hear the silent words between you and him, unspoken but heavy in the air. But you refused to let it affect you. You had moved on. You had found a new life, a new family in Jace, and no matter how Aemond looked at you, it didnât change that.
Jaceâs grip on your hand tightened slightly, a subtle reminder of his unwavering support. He could feel the shift in the air, but he said nothing. Instead, he simply stood tall beside you, his presence a shield against the coldness from across the room.
You walked toward your father and took your seat, the weight of the moment settling over you. Aemondâs gaze never wavered, but you refused to meet it. The past was behind you, and you were no longer the woman who had let herself be trapped by his coldness and betrayal.
Tonight was about celebration, about the new life growing within you and the love you had found with Jace. The pastâAemond, Alys, the hurtâhad no place here, and you wouldnât let it ruin your joy.
As the evening unfolded, the lively chatter and the sounds of the celebration filled the grand hall, but your attention was entirely on Jace. He had insisted you eat, even though your plate was still full. His worry for you, for the well-being of the child you were carrying, was evident in every gesture.
When the manservant brought forward a plate of sweets you particularly enjoyed, Jace smiled proudly and handed them to you, not noticing the amused glances from Rhaenyra and your mother, Alicent, seated beside you.
âI told you Iâm fine,â you laughed softly, lightly pushing the plate of sweets away, already feeling full from the rich meal that had been served. âI havenât even finished my dinner yet.â
But Jace was unperturbed, his eyes filled with concern. âYou need to eat more, for the baby. Mother and your mother both say you should eat plenty, and theyâre right,â he said, his tone unwavering.
Rhaenyra and Alicent exchanged glances, their laughter echoing softly across the table. You could tell they were enjoying the sight of Jaceâs earnestness, the way he was fussing over you like a doting husband. It was both endearing and a little frustrating, especially when your stomach had no room for any more sweets.
âJace, I really donât need any more,â you said, gently pushing the plate further away. âIâm already full. Really.â
But Jace simply smiled, oblivious to your protests. âNonsense,â he said. âA little more wonât hurt, will it?â
Your motherâs laughter rang through the air. âHe certainly is determined,â she teased, her gaze softening as she watched her daughter and son-in-law interact.
You sighed, a mix of amusement and mild exasperation at Jaceâs overzealous attention to your needs. But despite the small frustration, you couldnât help but smile at how much he cared, at how he always made sure you were well taken care of, whether it was ensuring you ate enough or offering constant support.
âYouâre impossible,â you said with a playful smile, and Jace just grinned, pleased with his efforts to look after you.
Rhaenyra leaned in, her eyes twinkling with humor. âHe does make it hard for you to say no, doesnât he?â
You nodded, giving Jace a mock glare before turning back to your mother. âI donât know how you put up with him all the time.â
Alicent chuckled, brushing a strand of hair from her face. âItâs all part of being a mother-in-law. I suppose Iâve grown used to it.â
Though the playful banter continued, it was clear that your family, despite the turmoil of the past, had found a sense of joy and peace again. And that, in itself, made the night feel all the more special.You felt a slight tension rise in your chest as Alys approached, her presence undeniable as she cradled her child in her arms. She smiled warmly, offering her congratulations to you and Jace, her voice sweet and calm.
âCongratulations to you both,â Alys said softly, her eyes lingering on your growing belly.
You nodded politely, offering a small smile, but your mind couldnât help but wander. As she mentioned her son, you glanced at the child she was holding. The little one had silver hair, unmistakably a Targaryen trait. You couldnât help but comment, âHe looks just like Aemond.â
Alys smiled, her expression gentle as she glanced down at her child. âYes, he does,â she said, her voice filled with maternal pride. âAemond and I are hoping for a sibling for him soon.â
Her words, though kind, hit you like a sharp pang in your heart. The thought of Aemond and Alys trying for another child, especially after everything that had transpired, was almost too much to bear. You forced yourself to maintain a calm exterior, though your stomach churned with a mix of emotionsâjealousy, hurt, and frustration.
Jace, noticing the slight shift in your mood, squeezed your hand reassuringly under the table, his eyes flicking between you and Alys.
Alys, seemingly oblivious to the effect her words had on you, continued talking about her son and how happy she was with her little family. But your mind was elsewhere, struggling to reconcile the image of Aemond with his new family and the new life you were trying to build with Jace.
You did your best to smile and respond politely, but the conversation felt strained. It wasnât that you harbored ill feelings towards Alys or her sonâit was the reminder of everything you had lost, and how easily Aemond had moved on, leaving you behind in the wake of his choices.
Jace, sensing the shift in the atmosphere, gave you a subtle nudge, and you quickly redirected your attention back to him, offering a smile that was only half genuine.
âThank you, Alys,â you said, your voice steady, though inside, a whirlwind of emotions raged. âIâm glad to see you and your son doing well.â
She smiled warmly, seemingly unaware of the tension that simmered beneath the surface. âItâs been wonderful, truly,â Alys replied before turning her attention back to her child.
As she walked away, you exhaled deeply, grateful for the brief respite from the conversation. Jace gave your hand a comforting squeeze, his silent support more than enough to help you regain your composure.
For a moment, you allowed yourself to lean into him, taking comfort in the stability he provided, a stark contrast to the chaos and heartbreak of your past.
The moment Alys left, a wave of relief washed over you, but it was short-lived. The atmosphere grew tense once again as you saw Aemond and Aegon approaching, the weight of their presence undeniable. You could feel your heart race, your body instinctively tensing as they drew nearer.
Aegon, ever the charismatic one, gave you a warm smile and congratulated you on your marriage. His words were genuine, though the tension in the air was palpable. Aemond, however, had a different auraâhis expression was cold, his eyes sharp as he fixed his gaze on you and Jace.
âCongratulations,â Aemond said with a forced politeness, though his voice lacked warmth. He then added with a calculated calmness, âI must admit, your decision to marry Jace is quite the surprise. How could you marry a bastard like him?â
The words stung, but you didnât flinch. You had grown accustomed to Aemondâs cutting remarks. You met his gaze with equal intensity, refusing to let him undermine your happiness any longer.
âHow could I marry a bastard like him?â you echoed, your voice steady, but a fire burning in your chest. âAnd how could you, Aemond, have a bastard child with the bastard girl of Harrenhal? Whatâs the difference between us?â
Aemondâs face tightened at your words, his lips pressing into a thin line as he took in your response. The room felt smaller, the tension thicker. He opened his mouth, but no words came out at first. He had always expected you to cower before him, but today was different. Today, you were not the same woman he had left behind.
You saw a flicker of frustration in his eyes, but he quickly masked it with a cold, dismissive look. âYouâve changed,â he muttered, though it seemed more to himself than to you.
Jace, ever protective, stepped closer to you, his arm coming around your waist possessively. He met Aemondâs stare with a challenging gaze, unspoken tension hanging between them.
Aegon, sensing the growing hostility, quickly intervened, attempting to defuse the situation. âLetâs not do this now,â he said, his tone softer. âItâs a celebration tonight. Weâre here to honor our father.â
But Aemond, still silent, looked between you and Jace with a mixture of disdain and something else you couldnât quite place. He knew the words he had spoken had hit their mark, but you were no longer the woman who would let his venom affect her.
âIâve made my choices, Aemond,â you said firmly, your gaze unwavering. âAnd Iâll continue to make them. Your opinion doesnât matter to me anymore.â
With that, you turned your attention to Jace, your hand finding his, drawing strength from him as you walked away from the tension-filled encounter. The murmurs of the room faded as you and Jace made your way to a quieter corner, where you could finally breathe freely again.
Jace, ever the calm in the storm, gave your hand a reassuring squeeze, his eyes soft with affection. âAre you alright?â he asked, his voice low and comforting.
You nodded, a small smile tugging at your lips. âI am now.â
You had been spending more time in the Red Keep, adjusting to this new phase of your life. With your family, including Rhaenyra and your mother, growing closer, things had begun to settle. The tension between your family members had diminished, and there was a sense of peace that you hadnât felt in a long time.
That morning, you found yourself sitting with Heleana, enjoying the company of her twin children as they played nearby. Their laughter filled the air, and for a moment, you allowed yourself to smile, feeling the warmth of family. Yet, beneath that smile, there was an acheâan uncomfortable pressure you couldnât quite shake. It wasnât just physical; it was as though your body was reminding you of the strain youâd been carrying.
As the children ran around, you tried to hide your discomfort, taking slow, steady breaths to calm the mounting pain in your abdomen. You didnât want to worry Heleana or anyone else, so you kept your focus on the children, pretending that everything was fine. But the truth was, the constant dull pain had become something you couldnât ignore.
Heleana noticed your shift in demeanor, her sharp eyes catching the subtle change in your expression. She paused for a moment, looking at you with concern. âAre you alright?â she asked softly, her voice laced with care. âYou look like youâre in pain.â
You tried to brush it off with a smile, but it didnât reach your eyes. âIâm fine, just a little tired,â you replied, attempting to downplay it. âI think I just need a moment to rest.â
But Heleana wasnât convinced. She stood up and walked over to you, placing a gentle hand on your shoulder. âIf something is wrong, you know you can talk to me, right?â she said, her voice warm and understanding.
You hesitated for a moment, torn between wanting to confide in her and not wanting to burden anyone with your concerns. But then, the pain flared again, sharper this time, and you couldnât hold it in any longer.
âIâve been feeling⌠off,â you admitted quietly. âItâs like thereâs something not right, and I donât know how to explain it.â
Heleanaâs face softened with empathy, and she knelt beside you, taking your hand. âYou should speak to someone, perhaps a maester, to make sure everything is alright,â she suggested gently.
You nodded, your heart heavy with uncertainty. You had been so focused on rebuilding your life and finding happiness that you hadnât allowed yourself to acknowledge the possibility that something could be wrong.
âThank you, Heleana,â you whispered, grateful for her support. âIâll think about it.â
As you sat there, the laughter of the children faded into the background, replaced by the heavy thoughts running through your mind. Something inside you knew you couldnât ignore this feeling any longer.
The pain intensified, each wave making it harder to focus on anything else. You clutched your stomach, unable to ignore the overwhelming sensation anymore. Looking at Heleana, you whispered, âPlease, help me. I think itâs time⌠itâs time for the baby.â
Heleanaâs eyes widened in concern, but without hesitation, she helped you up, supporting you as you staggered toward your room. She could sense the urgency, the change in your breathing, the way you were trying to hide your discomfort, but she knew you couldnât ignore it any longer.
Once inside your room, Heleana didnât waste a second. She quickly stepped out, telling you she would get Jace and a maester immediately. The moment she left, you were left alone, walking back and forth in your room, trying to ease the growing pain with slow, deliberate movements. Each step, each breath, felt like a small battle.
Time seemed to stretch as the pain surged and receded, leaving you wondering how much longer you could bear it. You were no longer just anticipating the arrival of your child; it had arrived in the form of this unbearable, sharp reminder of what was coming.
Minutes later, Jace burst into the room, his face a mix of concern and urgency. His eyes scanned you quickly before he rushed over, his voice barely above a whisper. âBreathe, love. Please, sit down."
You could hear the panic in his voice, the way he was trying to stay composed for your sake, but it only made your heart race faster. He gently guided you toward the bed, helping you sit down, his hands steady yet trembling with concern. âStay with me, just breathe,â he urged, his hands resting lightly on your shoulders, his presence a comfort amidst the overwhelming pain.
The maester arrived soon after, and Jaceâs face softened with relief as he stepped aside to let the healer do their work. The maester checked on you quickly, muttering words of reassurance as he confirmed that the time had come. âItâs happening,â he said, giving Jace a nod before he began preparing for the delivery.
Jace turned to you then, his eyes filled with love and worry. âYouâre doing great, just keep breathing, alright?â He sat beside you, holding your hand, offering whatever comfort he could as the maester worked.
The room was filled with a tense silence, broken only by your labored breaths and the quiet, soothing words Jace whispered to you. The pain was unbearable, but his presence was the anchor you needed. His steady voice, his comforting touchâhe was there, and that alone was enough to help you find the strength to keep going.
âYouâre strong,â Jace said, his voice full of admiration. âYou can do this. Iâm right here with you.â
And in that moment, with his words and his love surrounding you, you knew you werenât alone. The journey ahead would be painful, but with him by your side, you could face anything.
The sharp wave of contraction ripped through your body, and you couldnât hold back the scream that tore from your throat. Your grip on Jaceâs hand tightened, knuckles white as you clung to him like a lifeline. He was right beside you, whispering soothing words, but the pain was overwhelming, consuming every part of you.
Your mother, Alicent, and Rhaenyra were both there now, their presence adding a layer of comfort. They stood at your side, each offering soft words of encouragement, their hands brushing against your hair, wiping away the sweat that beaded on your forehead. The room was filled with a flurry of movement, the midwives and maester working efficiently, their voices calm and reassuring as they guided you through the process.
âItâs too much,â you gasped, shaking your head in desperation. âI canât do this. It hurts⌠it hurts too much.â
Alicent leaned in, her voice steady and filled with a motherâs unwavering strength. âYou are stronger than you think. You can do this. Just one more push, my darling.â
Rhaenyra echoed her, a determined look in her eyes. âYouâve come so far. Youâre almost there. Weâre all here with you.â
Jace pressed a kiss to your temple, his voice soft but firm. âI believe in you. Youâre doing so well. Just one more time, love. For our son.â
Their words were a lifeline, pulling you from the depths of your despair. Drawing in a shaky breath, you gathered every ounce of strength left in your body. With a guttural cry, you pushed, the pain reaching its crescendo as you gave one final effort.
The room seemed to still for a heartbeat, and then, the sound of a babyâs cry filled the air. Relief washed over you like a tidal wave as the midwives worked quickly, bringing your child into the world. Tears welled up in your eyes, blurring your vision as they placed the squirming, crying baby into your arms.
âItâs a boy,â the maester announced, smiling as he stepped back.
Jaceâs eyes were filled with awe as he looked down at the tiny bundle in your arms. His hand trembled slightly as he reached out to touch the soft, silver hair on your sonâs head. âHeâs perfect,â Jace whispered, his voice thick with emotion. âJust like his mother.â
You couldnât tear your eyes away from your son, overwhelmed by a flood of love and relief. His cries softened as he nestled against you, his tiny fingers curling around your thumb. âHello, my sweet boy,â you murmured, your voice cracking with emotion. âYouâre finally here.â
Alicent and Rhaenyra looked on with tears in their eyes, sharing in the joy and relief that filled the room. âYou did it,â Alicent said softly, pressing a kiss to your forehead. âYou brought him into this world.â
Rhaenyra smiled, brushing a tear from her cheek. âHeâs a true Targaryen. Strong and beautiful, just like his parents.â
Jace leaned in, pressing another kiss to your temple, his own tears falling freely now. âI love you,â he whispered. âBoth of you. Youâve made me the happiest man in the world.â
In that moment, surrounded by the warmth of your family, the pain and fear melted away, replaced by an overwhelming sense of peace and joy. Your son was here, healthy and safe, and your heart swelled with a love that you knew would only grow with each passing day.
As you cradled your newborn son in your arms, a wave of relief washed over you. His tiny cries filled the room, a sweet sound that marked the culmination of your pain and struggle. Jace was at your side, his eyes shining with pride and love as he gazed down at his son. Alicent and Rhaenyra stood nearby, their expressions softened with joy.
But then, without warning, a sharp, familiar pain gripped your abdomen once more. You gasped, clutching at your stomach as the pain intensified. The room shifted from serene to alarmed in an instant, the midwives and maester springing back into action.
âItâs happening again,â you managed to choke out, your voice trembling with fear and exhaustion. âWhatâs going on?â
The maester stepped forward, his expression calm but urgent. âYouâre carrying twins, Your Grace. We must act quickly. The second child is on their way.â
Jaceâs grip on your hand tightened, his face pale but resolute. âYouâre strong,â he whispered, his voice a steady anchor in the storm of pain. âYou can do this. Iâm right here with you.â
Alicent knelt beside you, her hands trembling as she brushed the damp hair from your face. âYouâve already brought one beautiful child into this world. You can do it again. Weâre all here with you.â
Rhaenyra leaned in, her voice soothing and filled with determination. âFocus on your breathing. Weâll get through this together."
Drawing on their words, you summoned what little strength you had left. The contractions came fast and hard, each one sapping your energy, but you refused to give up. The thought of your second child, waiting to take their first breath, fueled you to push through the pain
The room blurred around you as you bore down, your body trembling with the effort. Time seemed to stretch endlessly, each second a battle against the overwhelming exhaustion threatening to consume you. But with one final, agonizing push, the pressure released, and the room filled with the cries of your second child.
A sob of relief escaped your lips as the midwives carefully placed your newborn daughter into your arms. Her tiny face scrunched up as she wailed, her voice strong and fierce. Tears streamed down your cheeks as you looked down at her, her delicate features a mirror of her brotherâs.
âItâs a girl,â the maester announced, a smile breaking through his composed demeanor. âBoth children are healthy.â
Jaceâs eyes welled with tears as he reached out to gently touch his daughterâs hand, her tiny fingers wrapping around his. âSheâs perfect,â he whispered, his voice filled with awe. âJust like her brother. Just like you.â
Your heart swelled as you cradled both of your children, the weight of them grounding you in this moment of profound joy and love. Despite the pain, despite the fear, you had brought them both into the world, and they were safe in your arms.
Alicent pressed a kiss to your forehead, her tears mingling with yours. âYou did it, my love. You brought two beautiful souls into this world.â
As Jace wrapped his arms around you, holding you and your children close, you felt a surge of love so powerful it took your breath away. This was your family, your heart. No matter what challenges lay ahead, you knew that together, you could face anything.
