⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

the castle was quiet, the flickering torches casting long shadows along the cold stone walls. moonlight spilled through the high windows, illuminating the path ahead as you made your way through the labyrinthine halls. your heart raced with each step, the thrill of your clandestine mission coursing through your veins.

you paused at a corner, peering around to ensure no one was coming. the risk was high—if you were caught, the consequences would be dire. but the reward, the sight of her, made it all worth it. you took a deep breath, steeling yourself, and continued.

heleana’s chambers were at the end of a long corridor, guarded by a single door that seemed to pulse with the secrets it held. you knocked softly, the sound barely audible. a moment later, the door creaked open, revealing heleana’s familiar face. her silver hair cascaded down her shoulders, and her violet eyes sparkled with excitement and worry.

"y/n," she whispered, her voice a soft caress. she stepped aside to let you in, closing the door quickly behind you.

you were in her arms before you could speak, the warmth of her embrace banishing the chill that had settled in your bones. she held you tightly, her breath hot against your ear. "i’ve missed you," she murmured, her lips brushing your skin.

"and i you," you replied, pulling back just enough to look into her eyes. there was so much you wanted to say, so much you couldn’t put into words. instead, you pressed your lips to hers, the kiss gentle but full of longing.

heleana’s hands roamed your back, pulling you closer as if she could meld you into one being. you lost yourself in her touch, in the sweetness of her lips. every stolen moment with her felt like a dream, too beautiful to be real.

but reality always intruded. she broke the kiss, her eyes filled with a mix of love and sorrow. "we can’t keep doing this," she said, though her grip on you didn’t loosen. "if aegon or anyone else finds out..."

"i know," you said, cupping her face in your hands. "but i can’t stay away. i love you, heleana."

her eyes shimmered with unshed tears, and she leaned into your touch. "i love you too. more than anything. but it’s dangerous."

"we’ll find a way," you promised, though you had no idea how. "we have to."

heleana nodded, a single tear slipping down her cheek. you kissed it away, tasting the salt of her sorrow. "stay with me tonight," she pleaded. "just for a little while."

you nodded, and she led you to her bed. you lay together, limbs entwined, hearts beating in sync. the world outside the room ceased to exist, and for a few precious hours, it was just the two of you.

as dawn approached, you knew you had to leave. you kissed her one last time, memorizing the feel of her lips, the way her body fit against yours. "i’ll be back," you whispered, though the words felt like a promise you might not be able to keep.

"be careful," she replied, her voice breaking. "i can’t lose you."

you nodded, pulling away reluctantly. you slipped out of her chambers, the weight of the forbidden love you shared heavy on your shoulders. as you made your way back through the castle, you prayed for a day when you could be together openly, without fear.

the next evening, as you prepared for another secret meeting with heleana, you were summoned by queen alicent. you felt a shiver of dread as you entered her chambers, unsure of what she wanted from you.

queen alicent was seated at a large table, her piercing gaze fixed on you as you entered. "y/n, sit," she commanded, gesturing to a chair opposite her.

you sat down, trying to mask your nervousness. "you wished to see me, your grace?"

"yes," she said, her tone icy. "i've noticed your frequent absences from your quarters at night. is there something you wish to confess?"

your heart pounded in your chest, but you kept your expression neutral. "i have been restless, your grace. the castle walls feel confining at times, and i find solace in wandering."

alicent studied you for a long moment, her eyes narrowing. "i see. it is dangerous to wander alone, especially at night. you should be more careful."

"i will, your grace," you said, inclining your head respectfully.

"you may go," she said, dismissing you with a wave of her hand.

you left the room, your mind racing. did she know? or was it just a coincidence? you had to be more cautious.

as you approached heleana’s chambers that night, a figure stepped out of the shadows. it was aemond, heleana’s brother. his intense gaze bored into you, and you felt a chill run down your spine.

"aemond," you said, trying to keep your voice steady. "what are you doing here?"

"i could ask you the same question," he replied, his voice low and dangerous. "but i already know the answer."

your blood ran cold. "i don’t know what you’re talking about."

he stepped closer, his eye never leaving yours. "stay away from her. if you care about heleana’s safety, you’ll end this now."

"i love her," you said, your voice trembling with emotion. "i can’t just walk away."

aemond’s expression hardened, his lips curling into a sneer. "then you’re a fool. aegon will not tolerate this. he will make sure you suffer, and he will destroy heleana in the process. do you want that on your conscience?"

your resolve faltered, but your love for heleana burned bright. "i can’t abandon her."

"then you will both perish," aemond said coldly. "i will not warn you again."

with that, he disappeared into the shadows, leaving you alone in the dimly lit corridor. you took a deep breath, steeling yourself, and knocked on heleana’s door.

the door opened, and heleana’s eyes widened in surprise. "y/n, what’s wrong?"

you stepped inside, closing the door behind you. "aemond knows."

her face paled. "did he threaten you?"

"he warned me," you said, taking her hands in yours. "but he also cares about you. he won’t betray us."

heleana looked relieved but still worried. "we have to be more careful."

you nodded, pulling her into your arms. "we will be. we’ll find a way to be together without risking everything."

she clung to you, her fear palpable. "i can’t lose you."

"you won’t," you promised, holding her tightly. "we’ll find a way."

as you lay together that night, you couldn’t shake the feeling that your time was running out. but you would fight for every moment, for every kiss, and for the love that burned bright and fierce, even in the darkness.

the tension in the castle grew over the following weeks. aegon’s suspicions were evident in his sharp glances and probing questions. alicent’s watchful eyes seemed to follow you everywhere. but you and heleana continued to find ways to be together, your love a secret flame that refused to be extinguished.

one night, as you made your way to heleana’s chambers, you heard voices coming from within. you paused, listening intently.

"you’re endangering us all," aemond’s voice said, low and urgent.

"i love her, aemond," heleana replied, her voice breaking. "i can’t help it."

"you have to end this," aemond said, his tone cold and unyielding. "aegon is planning something. he’s determined to find out the truth."

your heart raced as you listened. you had to warn heleana. you knocked softly on the door, and it opened almost immediately.

heleana’s eyes widened in surprise. "y/n, what are you doing here?"

"i overheard," you said, stepping inside. "aegon is planning something. we have to be careful."

aemond’s expression hardened further, his gaze icy. "you need to leave. both of you. if you stay, aegon will find you and make you suffer."

"we have to go," heleana said, her eyes wide with fear. "we have to get away from here."

"where will we go?" you asked, feeling a surge of desperation.

"dragonstone," heleana suggested, desperation in her voice. "rhaenyra will protect us."

aemond’s eyes flashed with anger. "do you think rhaenyra will welcome you with open arms? you are risking everything for a foolish dream."

heleana looked at her brother, tears in her eyes. "will you help us?"

aemond stared at her for a long moment before nodding reluctantly. "i will help you escape. but do not think this is the end. you will always be hunted."

that night, you and heleana fled the castle with aemond’s help. you rode through the night, your hearts pounding with fear and exhilaration. as dawn broke, you saw dragonstone rising in the distance, a beacon of hope.

as you approached the gates of dragonstone, a group of soldiers blocked your path. aemond’s expression turned cold and triumphant as he stepped forward, signaling the soldiers to seize you both.

"aemond, what is this?" heleana cried out, her eyes wide with betrayal.

"i warned you," aemond said, his voice icy. "you should have listened. aegon will not tolerate this... disgrace."

the soldiers grabbed you and heleana, forcing you to the ground. you struggled against their grip, but it was futile.

"aemond, please!" you begged, desperation lacing your voice.

"you brought this upon yourselves," he said coldly, turning away as the soldiers dragged you back toward king's landing.

the return to the castle was a blur of fear and despair. as you and heleana were thrown into a cell, you clung to each other, your hearts breaking with the realization that your love had been your undoing.

days passed in the cold, dark cell. aegon visited once, his eyes filled with a cruel satisfaction as he taunted you both.

"you thought you could escape me?" he sneered. "you will pay for your defiance. both of you."

heleana tried to comfort you, her voice trembling as she whispered promises of a better future, but you both knew the truth. there would be no escape, no happy ending.

one night, as you lay together on the cold stone floor, heleana’s tears mingled with yours. "i’m sorry," she whispered, her voice breaking. "i’m so sorry."

you held her tightly, your own tears falling freely. "i love you," you said, your voice filled with pain and determination. "no matter what happens, i will always love you."

as the days turned into weeks, you clung to that love, finding strength in each other even as the darkness closed in. your love had been a forbidden flame, burning bright and fierce, but now it was a flickering ember, struggling to survive.

and as the door to your cell creaked open one final time, you faced your fate with heleana by your side, your hearts united in a love that would never be extinguished, even in the face of death.

aegon’s suspicions finally culminated in a brutal confrontation. the king, flanked by his guards, stormed into the cell where you and heleana were held. his face was twisted with rage, and his voice was cold as ice.

"y/n, you have bewitched my wife and brought disgrace upon this house," he declared. "you will be punished for your treachery."

"aegon, please," heleana pleaded, tears streaming down her face. "she did nothing wrong. it was my choice."

"silence!" aegon roared. "you have been corrupted by this... harlot. guards, take her away."

the guards seized you, pulling you away from heleana’s grasp. you struggled, desperate to stay by her side. "heleana! no! please!"

heleana’s screams echoed through the halls as she tried to reach you, but aegon’s grip on her was unyielding. "you will be dealt with later," he said coldly to his wife. "but this one will suffer for her sins."

the last thing you saw as you were dragged away was heleana’s tear-streaked face, her cries of anguish haunting your every step. you were thrown into a separate cell, the door slamming shut behind you with a finality that crushed your spirit.

days turned into weeks, and you were left alone in the darkness, the memory of heleana's touch the only thing keeping you sane. you clung to the hope that she was safe, that somehow, she would be spared.

but as the days passed, that hope began to fade. you were isolated, punished for loving too deeply, and the world outside your cell seemed to grow colder with each passing moment.

and as the darkness closed in, you held onto the memory of heleana, your forbidden flame, knowing that your love, though condemned, would burn bright and fierce in your heart forever.

"Drink it."

"No."

You sat the cup down, firmly crossing your arms as you sit back in the chair.

"Come on! We are celebrating!" The prince exclaims, pushing the rim of his own cup to your lips.

"Forgive my daftness my Prince but what exactly are we celebrating?" You swiftly grabbed his hand to still his movements.

"Your return, ofcourse!" Aegon nearly scoffs, acting as if you were being obtuse on purpose.

"Mother has been utterly morose without you here."

"The Queen tries her best to hide it but only ends up being disagreeable. Which would be fine if I were not always on the receiving end of her moods."

You throw the Prince a look, admittedly stunned at his words.

Alicent was truly that miserable when you were gone? Even Aegon, someone so imperious and self interested, could see it.

Aegon smirks knowingly, he has said the right thing to convince you.

He raises his cup and gestures for you to do the same.

"To Lady y/n, for returning to my mother's aide and in turn, my own. I do not know where we would be without you, my dear friend."

The platinum haired Prince places a quick hand on your shoulder as a gesture of gratitude before chugging his ale.

You followed his lead, too late to back out now.

--

The room had begun to spin, you definitely needed to stop drinking if you wanted to report for duty in the morrow.

The prince has long dissappeared into the back rooms. He had bought himself a suitable whore, or five to be precised, satisfying his needs for the night.

You had half a mind to get up and leave Aegon to his deeds but a part of you felt obligated. For Alicent, you needed to make sure her son is escorted back to the castle safely.

Your mind rarely ever strayed too far from the Queen. She occupied your entire headspace, you are intoxicated in her presence and grieve her when you are apart. You have lived this way since the first moment you met.

Naturally, you began to recall the incident that occurred in your chambers earlier that night. You started to feel something familiar stir in the pit of your stomach. You found yourself wondering how far the two of you would have gone if the Prince hadn't interrupted.

You are broken out of your thoughts when you hear giggling coming from across the room. You glance over and spot a group of women, evidently workers of that brothel.

Each of them whispering and throwing sheepish glances your way.

"Gods, she's a Greyjoy?"

You hear one of them say as she brings her thumb up to her mouth gnawing at it slightly, hiding a blush.

You throw the woman a warm smile as a good gesture. A terrible mistake you soon realised, as you watched her make her way towards you.

The woman took advantage of your unoccupied lap and situated herself on it. Her hand finding the back of your neck as she turns towards you. She is entirely too close for your liking, you can smell the ale on her breath.

"Hello gorgeous, why are you here all alone?" She leans in to whisper in your ear.

You give her an uncomfortable smile this time unsure of how to approach the situation.

"I am awaiting someone. He went into the back rooms."

The woman lets out a sudden laugh, loud and obnoxious enough to make you grimace.

"You are waiting for the Prince? Then you will be waiting all night sweetheart."

You didn't appreciate her condescension.

"You look terribly lonely my lady, allow me to take care of you."

The woman breathes out as she move her hand to your chest, slipping it under your shirt, her intentions were clear.

You grabbed her hand abruptly stopping her from touching you any further.

"I have no interest in being taken care of, thank you." You respond curtly, no longer meeting the woman's gaze you only wanted her to get off your lap.

"Am I not to your liking, my lady? Perhaps you'd prefer one of the maidens instead?" Her thumb grazes your jaw forcing you to glance at the other ladies sat across the room.

They did look young, way too young to be in a place like this.

"No, I assure you it's quite alright." You repeated sternly.

The woman removes her hand from your neck and slumps backwards. Her back resting agaisnt the edge of the table.

Your hand finds her waist reflexively, to keep her from falling off your lap completely.

"Alright then. If you ever wish to know what it feels like to be properly satisfied, you know where to find me."

With that, she finally leaves you alone. You took a large swig of your drink. You were never one to reject a woman's advances but you realised that you were no longer in the Iron Islands. It was already of poor standing for the Queen's sworn knight to be seen in a place like this. You decide to not push it any further.

Above all, the truth was you no longer had any desire to lay with anybody who wasn't Alicent. The queen has completely ruined you for other women.

--

Alicent is awoken by the sun streaming in through her curtains. She is shocked at how well rested she feels this morning. Her mind immediately turns to you and she's greeted by a warmth in her chest. You kissed last night but the guilt she once felt is no longer. She does not recognise the feeling stirring inside her but she would imagine it is as close as she will ever get to peace.

Like clockwork, she hears a knock at her door. Her handmaiden, come to dress her for the day.

"Come!"

Talya walks in, curtseys and makes her way to the windows. Pulling the curtains open the morning sun now illuminating the entirety of the Queen's chambers.

Alicent stands and allows her handmaiden to fix up her bedding, their usual routine. The queen puts on her robe and moves to stand by her window, she spots Aemond walking across the field in his riding attire he must be on his way to the dragon pit. A fond smile forms across her face, her darling boy.

She suddenly notices she could no longer hear the ruffling of pillows. Talya is stood behind the Queen, her gaze fixed on the ground as she fiddles with her fingers nervously.

The auburn haired woman turns her attention to her handmaiden. Her face contorts in genuine concern.

"Talya, what is it?" Alicent breaks the silence.

"Your Grace, there are rumours concerning Lady y/n's conduct. I figured that it would be better for you to hear these claims from me first."

Alicent feels the wind get knocked out of her. She clasps her hands over her abdomen at an attempt to stay composed. Did somebody see them last night? How could that be when they were in the privacy of y/n's chambers?

"Go on, what are these rumours you speak of?"

"The lady y/n had been spotted engaging in activities unbeffiting of a lady of her status."

"Activities? Please, speak plainly Talya." Alicent commands.

"She was seen in a brothel during the hour of the ghosts, with the young Prince Aegon."

Alicent no longer feels warm. Only the nausea emanating from deep inside her belly, a result of her disgust.

She brings her hand up to her throat rubbing at it soothingly.

Talya continues despite the Queen's obvious discomfort.

"She was seen with another woman, it is said that they were engaging in certain acts that should only ever include a man and a woman."

Alicent winces involuntarily, her handmaiden notices and looks down at the ground once more.

The Queen suppresses the sob threatening to come out of her lips before speaking again.

"Very well Talya, thank you for telling me."

Alicent feels as if she had just been struck in the chest, hard.

Her sadness quickly dissipating and she now only feels anger. How could y/n do this to her? Especially after the events of last night, why would you risk sullying your reputation? She needed to confront you about this. She wanted the truth.

"Help me dress now, I must attend to the King."

--

You open your eyes and right away feeling an all too familiar pounding in your head.

You lift your hand up to cover your face, the room was just too bright.

"Seven hells." You grumble as you reach for water just to realise you weren't in your own chambers.

Opening your eyes slowly you brace yourself for the sight of the woman from the brothel. In your drunken state you must have taken her to bed afterall.

To your horror, you quickly recognised the interior of the chambers to be Prince Aegon's.

You feel movement next to you and quickly turn your head, you are inches away from the Prince's face the both of you now only noticing each other for the first time.

Your eyes widen and you both let out a yell, he mirrors your expression as he pulls the covers closer to his bare chest.

You recoil moving further back away from him resulting in you falling off the bed, landing harshly on the ground.

"Fuck." You let out a groan. What the hell happened last night?

You looked down inspecting your attire. Your clothes were still on, everything was intact except for your sword and footwear which was strewn across the floor to your right. You sighed in relief. Atleast the worst didn't happen.

You stand up, your eyes meeting Aegon's worried expression.

"We did not.. do anything last night, did we?" Aegon asks and you feel the urge to fling your shoe at him for even suggesting it.

"You did things I am sure of it but definitely not with me. I am fully clothed." You state, putting on your shoes. You look up at him again.

"I am asking this to simply satisfy my curiosity my Prince but why exactly are you naked?" You watch as Aegon clutches the white sheet over his body holding onto it for dear life.

"I found that I rest much better unclothed, force of habit I suppose."

You found yourself staring at him bewildered for a few moments before you speak again.

"I should go now."

"Yes, best not to mention this to anyone." The prince warns.

"Aye, no one." You assure.

You pick up your sword and turn to make your way out of his chambers but you are stopped in your tracks by the sight before you.

"Your Grace." You coughed out.

The queen stood by the door, her hands by her sides. You watched as she balls her fists before relaxing them. It looked as if she was suppressing the urge to lunge at you. The expression on her face was otherwise a dead giveaway, she was furious.

Her eyes flitted to her son, she scans his appearance before scowling.

This is bad. This is really very bad.

"Your Grace, it truly is not what it looks like. Please allow me to explain."

Alicent lifts her hand up, you stop speaking immediately.

You have been face to face with actual dragons and in this moment she is more intimidating than any of them.

"My chambers. Now." She stares at you and you knew better than to challenge her.

You nod and follow the Queen swiftly to her rooms.

--

Alicent slammed the door to her chambers, promptly making her way towards you. Her hands coming into contact with your chest she shoves you hard, you lose your balance slightly but otherwise do not budge. Tears well up in her eyes and your heart shatters at the sight.

You've hurt her.

The queen shoves you again, this time she is repeatedly hitting your chest with her fists, being considerably stronger than she is you barely flinch. You stood your ground allowing her to take it out on you. Alicent needed to let her anger show once in awhile.

You hear her sob and you bring your hands up to pull her into an embrace. She fights you for a moment before giving in, she clings onto you and you feel her shoulders rapidly rise and fall as she cries into your chest.

"What are you doing to me" Alicent's voice breaks and you only hold her tighter.

"I do not wish to cause you pain Alicent, I am truly sorry. Nothing happened between me and the Prince, you must believe me."

Alicent stays silent and you continue.

"I came along with the sole purpose of keeping an eye on him. I admit I had too much to drink last night but I swear to you that is the worst of it."

You can feel her breathing become even, she is no longer sobbing.

She lifts her head and looks at you through glistening eyes. A tear falls down her cheek as she blinks and you move your hand gently wiping it away with your thumb. You take the opportunity to hold her face in your hand for a moment and she allows you to.

Alicent takes a step back, you are no longer holding her but you are still close enough to feel her breath against your skin.

"And what of the woman at the brothel? You took her to bed did you not?"

You were wounded at the accusation, although you could not entirely blame Alicent for it. You had a reputation before coming to King's Landing, most people knew you had an avid interest in sleeping around. However, that was back in the Iron Islands, before you met the Queen. Thinking back on it now it seems like a lifetime ago.

You gaze softens, you shake your head before grabbing Alicent's hand.

"I have not laid with any other since being back here." You admit, bringing the Queen's hand up to your lips, you place a tender kiss against it.

You noticed as Alicent lets out a breath of relief. You step closer, planting another kiss on her arm.

You lift the Queen's hand up to place it on your chest, right above your heart.

"I have no desire for anybody else, Your Grace." Your hand firmly on top of hers, you know she can feel your heartbeat. It is steady and calm, as you only speak the truth.

"I am yours, if you want me. It has always been you, Alicent." You whisper, your gaze now fixed on the Queen's lips.

You watch as her lips part for a moment. She fails to say anything and you take the opportunity to lean in, kissing her deeply. Alicent reciprocates before settling her hand on your shoulder as you end the kiss.

"You admit these things to me truthfully?" The older woman breathes against your lips.

"I only ever want to tell you the truth, my Queen." You respond.

Alicent leans forward once again, this time she pulls you into a kiss.

"I believe you."

A smile forms on your lips but it quickly falls when the Queen flashes you a stern look.

"You are so lucky I do not have a dragon of my own." Alicent jests and you let out a laugh.

"You'd feed me to a dragon?" You gasp, hand over your chest feigning offence.

"If you infuriate me enough, yes I would." A smirk on your face, this time you don't try to suppress it.

"Ah, baseless threats Alicent. I know you despise those beasts." You say, absentmindedly rubbing the Queen's arm.

Alicent giggles and you stomach flutters at the sight. She is just so beautiful.

"Speaking of Dragons, Princess Rhaenyra has arrived from Dragonstone I must make my way over to greet her. I will see you later."

Alicent moves to walk away but you grab her hand stopping her.

"Your Grace, I shall come with. I am your sworn knight afterall."

The Queen shakes her head at you before speaking.

"Take the morning off y/n, I am sure the events of last night has left you depleted. This morning's a long and tedious one."

"I will be listening in on petitions for the Driftmark succession." Alicent explains and she is right that does not sound like something you wanted to sit through.

"I have arranged for Ser Criston to escort me. You will resume your post later today."

You nodded, protesting no further. Alicent places a quick kiss on your cheek before giving you a genuine smile, making her way towards the door. You follow behind her but turning in the opposite direction once you have reached the hallway, you walked to your own chambers.

--

"Her children are bastards!" Lord Vaemond shouts for the entire throne room to hear.

Alicent shifts her gaze to Viserys, how foolish of him to lose his temper before the King. There will only be dire consequences.

"And she is a whore." The auburn haired woman eyes widen, she could not believe this was happening.

"I will have your tongue, for that." Viserys wheezes, pulling out his dagger.

Alicent hears gasps all across the room and in one swift motion Prince Daemon swings Dark Sister, cutting Vaemond's head clean in half.

She flinches at the horrific sight and immediately turns to Heleana, her only instinct in the moment was to protect her daughter.

"Disarm him!" The guards surround the rogue prince, forcing him to yield his sword.

Viserys can be heard groaning in pain and the Queen rushes over to him, catching him in her arms. All of his weight on her she struggles to hold her husband up. He was too weak to stand on his own feet.

"My love, please you must take something for the pain." She insists before one of the guards helps lift the King back onto his seat escorting him to his rooms.

--

Alicent places the empty cup by Viserys' bedside. The king, finally asleep. She lifts the blanket further up to his chest before standing up to make her way out of his apartments.

The entire walk back to her chambers Alicent can merely focus on how exhausted she was. The day is not close to being over. She still had to sit through dinner with Rhaenyra and her husband.

--

You were stood posted outside the Queen's rooms for awhile now awaiting her return. Feeling better after a bath and a decent meal you were ready to properly resume your duties.

Footsteps can be heard approaching and you catch a glimpse of the auburn haired beauty you were expecting to see. Though the expression on her face looks less than thrilled. She looks utterly defeated.

Being Queen of the seven kingdoms you highly doubted the existence of a simple day. You do not envy her.

"Was it dreadful?" You ask once she gets close enough to hear you.

Alicent sighs before answering.

"Abysmal."

The queen looks around to make sure nobody was near before reaching to open the door to her chambers. You move out of her way but she quickly grabs your arm pulling you inside with her.

In the privacy of her rooms she wraps your arm around her own waist, gesturing for you to hug her. You do so without a moment's thought and Alicent melts into your embrace.

You hold her for a few moments, placing a quick kiss on her forehead. You could really get used to this.

Alicent lets out another sigh and you rub her back at an attempt to soothe her.

"My love, what's happened?" You ask, still rubbing small circles onto her back.

"Vaemond Velaryon was beheaded in the throne room infront of everybody." The older woman merely states, exasperated.

"What?" You exclaim in disbelief, moving back slightly to meet Alicent's gaze.

"By the King's orders?"

Alicent shakes her head before leaning into you once again.

"It was Daemon, he took justice into his own hands."

"Ah, I see. I know Prince Daemon. I had the displeasure of fighting alongside him in the stepstones all those years ago." You admitted. The Rogue Prince every bit lived up to his name. You do not miss his company one bit.

"The King ordered a family supper tonight. I want nothing more than to miss it."

"Though I suppose I will have to settle with only having a quick nap beforehand." Alicent says lifting her head and you release her from your embrace.

The Queen walks over to her bed and you nod your head at her before turning to leave.

"Where are you going?"

An amused expression flashes across your face.

"I thought you wanted to rest, Alicent."

"I do." The Queen says now sitting on her bed, she extends her hand out for you to grab.

You walk up to her, your hand now in hers, she pulls you closer and eventually you had no choice but to land on the bed next to her.

Alicent lays her head on the pillow, her back towards you. It now became clear that she wanted you to spoon her.

You oblige gladly, quickly unclasping your sword from your side you carefully set it by her bed. Moving closer to her your hand finds her waist and Alicent grabs your arm quickly wrapping it around herself until your hand was against her abdomen.

You listen as Alicent's breathing becomes shallow as she rapidly falls into a deep slumber.

You can feel your chest constricting, an unfathomable amount of love for the Queen. You truly would do anything to ensure her happiness. Right now holding her as she slept, you were certain you never wanted to let go.

Jaehaera Targaryen (OC) x House Targaryen, Hightower, and Velaryons

Masterlist:

The boys don’t want Jaehaera to get married just as much as she doesn’t…

To preface, there is no doubt every Lord AND Lady would have their eye on Jaehaera. More so when she comes of age, because as you do— and you will come to see, she does things that surpasses beliefs by then.

Along with the strife for power and wealth, many will simply be enticed by the princess. She is a striking sight to be held. Differing greatly from her family, yes. However the opposition within her beauty only makes her all the more mesmerizing… to everyone.

Her hair, longer and thicker than even the lion on the crest of the house of Lannister— whom would try and fail in humiliating rejection. It was black as obsidian and would sway when not put up. Sometimes, even when it was up, strands would fall, effortlessly finding the middle of her back.

That of which was her biggest controversy.

Her back.

Great lines, mimicking that of lighting within a raging storm, ran across her back. From nape to the bottom of her spine it spiraled and branched to vast whatever left on the sides. It contrasted her skin in every season. Turning a deep red in winter as her skin grew fair from the frosty air and decaying leafs, and white as bone as the sun’s rays caused the air to go hazy in one’s eyes, whilst sinking into flesh— making her a glowing bronze.

Many nobles found her lack of shame for them to be obscene. She seemed to like flaunting them, purposely wearing backless dresses, or ripping her tunics as to “feel the breeze against her skin”. That was the excuse that put Viserys at ease, for at least she was not simply laced by binding leather or cloth, which covered only as much as deemed necessary by Jaehaera. The decision always came down to her mood really.

Yet, as it became normal to people of court, those whom admire her couldn’t help becoming enticed by the scars. Later enticement lead to lust, and the princess was no stranger to things of that nature.

If anyone was lucky enough to even touch the princess, one would live in content for the rest of their life. To bed her was another, far too good to be described by any that had anyway… or maybe too dangerous. (We’ll find that out later.)

As Jaehaera became one with her body, controlling her limbs to her advantage in strategy of battle and manipulation, as well as the curves she had grown fond of, more took notice.

And those that had loved her before it all, well… it wasn’t long until they could no longer idly stand by.

Daemon felt as if he had been struck…

the moment he arrived on king landing soil he had at least expected his brother to welcome him home, being as that he was the one to send him to the wall in the first place. But when his feet hit the ground, and all he was comforted by was the sound of singing not too far away. Was there to be a celebration he knew not of? Daemon refused the idea of being left out of a party, and a part of him was eager to know that this mascaraed was for his victory.

News flash… it wasn’t.

He walked in, already stripped of armor, which he disposed of on the way there, and his eye grew wide. The magical purple of his iris had diminished into the blackness of his pupil. The sight in front of him was something he’d remember always; a cherished memory he wished to relive, yet was only satisfied whilst dreaming.

There she was, at least two feet taller than when he had left, spinning in circles. Her hair was let free, spiraling around with her, making those within her circle have to duck in cover or allow distance in between themselves and the Princess. She was a sight to behold, flush that traveled down all the way to her collar bone, skin glistened in a thin line of sweat from the activity. Daemon would bet that she had been like this for hours. And that was the only thing that irked him; he’d been too late to see the beginning.

While Daemon’s eyes took in all he could, the prince couldn’t help but noticed how her attire changed. How it caressed the curve of her breast, more full than before, whilst gripping her waist tight— as if to tease him. She had always been dangerous, but as Daemon felt his heart skip, he knew that she was now lethal.

“Brother! Finally you’ve joined us!”

His brother had never seemed more irritable.

Viserys was quick to beckon his brother, pulling him into a hug when able. He was definitely more drunk than sober. And it would seem he had his niece to thank for that.

“I thought it best to have a celebration for your return uncle.” Said a familiar voice, one he’d also missed and brought him great warmth.

Oh his princess.

“So this was your doing then, Rhaenyra?” He smiles, cocking his head at her coyly.

Laughing, a small blush creeping onto her face at his attention, she shook her head. “I thought to have a celebration, but Issa qēlos demanded it be done right here.” My star.

Glancing back onto the dance floor he noticed his raven haired beauty was no longer there. “Well she is a force to be reckoned with, that much I know hasn’t changed.” He stated, brows scrunched as he searched.

“Oh a lot has changed while you’ve been away Dae.”

Zipping around, he’s faced with shadow like girl. “Jaehaera.”

Raising a brow teasingly, she tilted her head to look past his shoulder at Rhaenyra. “I suppose he forgot his promise.”

Dawning on him as quick as an arrow, Daemon laughs. “Then allow me to apologize with a dance, Issa jaesa.” My goddess.

She took his hand without hesitation this time, only stopping his lead to whisper into Rhaenyra’s ear— making the pair giggle.

It would seem he’d have to catch up on inside jokes.

And he was right. Daemon’s chin rested comfortably against the crook of her neck, her head now too much of a stretch for him to place it there. As sad as he found the loss, secretly, the Prince couldn’t help but love the fact his nose was nestled close to her jaw. If he were to croon he’d feel her pulse. But he knew better than to do that in front of his brother. Especially since he’d only just returned.

“I’ve been a bit bored without you.”

“Oh? Do tell.” Daemon practically purred.

She hummed in confirmation, “Rhaenyra and Alicent have been the only people to keep me sane around here, and poor Queenie already has to deal with her own pestering suitors—,”

Jaehaera’s almost tripped due to Daemon’s feet halting at an obnoxious speed. She was just about to snip at his behavior when she met his eyes, which were anything but playful. Backing her head slightly to get a better grasp of his expression, she noticed a vein twitching at the side of his head.

“What?”

The word was harsh, force through gritted teeth as his hold on her grew more secure. His arm now wrapped around her middle, whilst his other intertwined with her own.

He was intimidating, no one could say otherwise, but Jaehaera knew better. He’d never actually hurt her, on purpose anyway.

“Don’t ‘what’ me Daemon, and don’t look at me like that. I’ve done nothing wrong.” Jaehaera remarked, pushing her body against his to make him move once again. She didn’t need her father being suspicious of their sudden stop of festivities.

“And it’s not like you’re the one being bothered by a bunch of pompous pricks.”

Shifting his tight jaw, Daemon exhaled deeply through his nose and ease back as much as he could. But his eyes had a mind of their own, jumping to every lord around, marking each one that even dared to glance at the princess as a target.

“What has Viserys said—?”

“He told me that I could do as I wish.”

Daemon’s shoulders loosened at that.

“I’m guessing you put them all in there place then?”

“All the arrogant ones,” she stated with a small smile. “Some were quite polite actually.”

Clicking his tongue against the roof of his mouth, Daemon twirled her ferociously before picking her up to tower above all others.

“Is that what pleases you? Politeness?”

Biting her lip to surprise a giggle, Jaehaera stared down at Daemon— those amber eyes lit aflame. “Respect is nice, but I do enjoy good groveling.”

Nodding, Daemon lowered the princess slowly till they were face level. He was going to whisper sweet, nasty things to her, wanting to see her blush desperately, but she beat him to the punch.

“I do like my lovers on their knees.”

A guttural moan found itself lodged in the rogue Prince’s throat. “I’ve made you insatiable haven’t I, Issa jaesa.” My goddess.

“You and Rhaenyra alway insist to feed my ego,” she shrugged playfully, slowing as the dance came to an end.

“I’d gladly take the blame. Something divine as you should be worshipped. Settle for no less.”

“I think you just don’t want me to get married.”

“No lord nor lady here deserves you.”

And he meant every word. From then on Daemon was a menace. If anyone approached her and Jaehaera didn’t seem the least bit amused— they were done for. Even in some events where they did please her, Daemon could not help but for jealous by the loss of attention. Sure, he could share with Rhaenyra and his brother, perhaps even lady Alicent at times, but he refused to let anyone outside the tiny circle Jaehaera had made up for herself have her. He was never one to cage her in manner of physicality. It would be hypocritical of him. But he always made it known when it did displease him.

Then he was either scolded or given the attention he had been begging for. Both made his blood hot and his head fuzzy. As long as he kept those addictive eyes on him, and her hand free.

Aegon was a passive aggressive little fucker…

He would shamelessly throw himself onto Jaehaera, being the clingy bitch he is. It didn’t matter if they were at a huge gathering or in their own company— Aegon was touching her in some way or lingering in her vicinity. It had been that way since he was young. She was the only person he ever longed to be with always. And if he wasn’t it was one of two reasons:

1. Jaehaera was traveling, which much to his disappointment was more often than not.

Or,

2. He was compensating for the lack of attention she was giving him by drinking his weight in wine or surrounding himself with women who kept his mind fuzzy enough to imagine that Jaehaera was there with him.

Oh, and Aegon was by far more vulgar than his brother in his affections for her.

It shouldn’t be a shocker how dirty Aegon is. In most regard, Jaehaera was the only figure he ever looked up to and felt completely loved by.

His father thought him a waste of space, a disappointment to his mother, and he fell short completely to his siblings. Not to mention he had little to no relationship to his sister Rhaenyra nor her children— even though he did quite miss his friendship with Jace, whether he admitted or not.

The single bonding factor for his family was her. And in a way, he loved her more for it.

But then again, Jaehaera was there for most of his childhood. Which meant while he was going through puberty, she was the only woman beside his mother and his sister that was around him most of the time. And he found her glorious.

He found that the maids he haphazardly fooled around with to be nothing in comparison. Thankfully however, he did treat them respectfully in that regard. He was still a proud prick about his status, but there’s no way he’d be disrespectful to a woman— especially one he’d slept with, while Jaehaera was around.

She definitely covered for him in the beginning. After finding him balls deep in one of the older ladies of court, when Alicent had been searching for him at during a banquet, she could only laugh to herself and tease him about it later. Nonetheless, she told Alicent he was taking a piss and would be back soon enough.

He would for sure test his limits with her. At first he’d hang on her figure whilst she discussed formal business, totally unamused and making himself busy by playing with the long strands of hair falling to her back. His cheek would lay heavy on her shoulder, collecting sweat in between as time went on, and his fingers would trail. Once he let them glide delicately against her scars, liking the differing texture in skin. At first it could even be counted as innocent, which would only last for a few moments. Soon his hand would trail down, and Jaehaera would sway him hard enough to make him hiss and back off. He’d give her a “sweet” grin and speedily kiss her neck before running away.

Being that as it may, he didn’t take it to kindly when Lords would approach her. Ladies he didn’t mind, and he would admit that it was because he was rather fond of Jaehaera’s ambiguity within sexuality. He just didn’t like when there could be a legal tie involved. And if any lord was to be with her, there was a higher chance to push marriage.

Not to mention, if we’re being completely honest, he just doesn’t like when she pays attention to any man other than him. This included his brother to an extent. But most of the time he needn’t worry, because his family always seemed overly protective and possessive of Jaehaera. So he wasn’t alone in his efforts.

Although, there was an infamous spectacle involving him and Lord Lannister…

“Have you lost your mind boy?!”

Aegon blinked slowly at his father, waiting for this to all blow over, as if dismembering the son of a high lord were a small mishap.

“Father, the only one who’s lost anything is Lord Lannister—,”

“What in the seven hells were you thinking?!” Viserys bellowed

Aemond could help but scoff out a laugh, surprisingly proud of his older brother. To be fair, if Aegon hadn’t done it, he would be the one being scolded.

“Lord Lannister crossed a line—,” Aegon sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. His head was pounded something fierce, and he couldn’t decide whether to blame the alcohol he had a few hours before or this whole conundrum.

“What? Did he harm your ego so far that it gave you the means to cut off his finger?”

“My king,” Jaehaera stepped forward, brushing Aegon’s side with a gentle hand to his shoulder— a gesture of comfort— without looking at him. “I will speak for him.”

Viserys let out an exasperated exhale, “You protect him too much. The boy has to learn to justify his actions.”

“Father, I only did what anyone else in this family would have.” The prince watched as his father scoffed, taking the hand Jaehaera offered instantly. His mother, Alicent stood by, inching her hand to grab the other in order to feel some relief.

Even she seemed to not believe him.

“Lannister put his filthy hand on Jaehaera.”

Everything went still. All that could be heard was a quick wince come from the tall princess.

She really wished to keep that a secret. Enough trouble had begun already.

“Father, it’s been taken care of.” Her words were meant to coo away any violent thoughts warping Viserys mind, but it hardly worked with so many around.

“You should have aimed for his whole hand.” Alicent stated, anger flashing in her eyes.

“Ali!” Jaehaera hissed, yanking away her hand.

She only received a flickering glance before Alicent shared a knowing look with her husband, then moving toward her son. Eventually kissing his cheek while muttering, “Well done.”

He smiled like an idiot for the rest of the day. Cause I’m his mind…

He still had a chance.

Aemond was possessive, and he wasn’t shy about it…

But he was far more strategic and regal in his affection or actions. Unlike his brother, he understood the importance of court.

Aemond’s touches were subtle and his words witty. He would take every opportunity to compliment Jaehaera. He would even go as far to put the thought of a ball, festival, or banquet into his mother’s head; it was all in hopes of seeing Jaehaera and spending numerous hours with her.

For most of his childhood, her presence was capricious. She came and went faster then the seasons changed. The kingdom would be lucky if she stayed for a month, for there was always work to be done across the sea. There was a rumor that if she and her dragon were to stay longer than a moon’s time then they’d turn to ash. Sadly, Aemond couldn’t prove them wrong.

But when she did come home, it was always when she was urged by her family. Of course, the request had to be occasional, or she’d discard every other one in the fire of Shykros breath or the salty mist below them. Most of the time they knew the chance of impending dance would lure her back.

One of his fondest memories with her was when she had come home two days before the timely hunt of the season, followed by a sleepless night of eating, dancing, and fucking. No one slept of their own free will; it was only until they could no longer stand or ached to move. By royal decree. Part of the few Jaehaera had set into motion.

As she spared with him, a exuberant smile etched into her face, Jaehaera practically twirled with every turn. Disarming him in few minutes, she always picked up his sword (which she gifted him) and spoke eagerly. “Again.”

Dare he say, he’d never seen her so elated during training. Sure, Aemond knew her to be playful and cunning. Perhaps a bit mischievous at time— wicked when provoked— but otherwise she was always calculated while sparring. She practiced like it was battle. As if she would die that very session. The only sign of humanity during the process was shown at the end, after her opponent laid on the floor beneath her. Sometimes if she was too far gone she’d even have them pinned, her foot on their chest and her blade hovering just above their neck.

Rare, but he’d seen it. She was ravenous and chaotic, yet so controlled. Aemond was enthralled by Jaehaera, and he made it known. (Much like Daemon in that regard.)

“Why are you so happy Fae?” A nickname he’d given her in his youth after she told him the tails of fairies and mythology. While magic flowed through his veins, he thought her the definition of magic.

“Why wouldn’t I be happy?” She quipped back, flipping her sword around her hand. “My whole family is to be under the same roof.” Jaehaera was beaming at the thought.

Aemond couldn’t help but feel torn. He loved that expression she was wearing, but what brought her happiness also meant he lost pieces of her. Parts of herself she would give away to his sister and uncle.

“Gods I haven’t seen Nyra in forever.” Jaehaera let out a proper giggle. Eyes shining bright. “Daemon will be there too no doubt. That is if his petty fit is over.”

“It’s diminish the moment he hears your attending.” Aemond said, his tone sharper than he meant. Their blades meeting briefly in the same second.

“Yes I suppose. I haven’t seen him in a month, and I know by the lack of responses to my letters of Dorne he and Nyra’s aren’t necessarily pleased.”

Furrowing his brow, he blocks her advance and lunges to the side. She pounced to the opposite. “Why is that?”

“I was propositioned five times. A valiant effort I’ll give them that.” Jaehaera laughed as her mind wandered far. “I almost said yes to one.”

Aemond couldn’t help but grind his teeth.

He knew she loved Dorne. Everyone knew she loved Dorne. She found their customs more comely than the pristine life at court. It was natural for her to fit in there.

That frightened her family to no end.

Locking his jaw, Aemond fueled his anger into his legs. And for a short time he even managed to back her close to the wall. But they never made it there.

It was quickly over after Jaehaera hit the hilt of his sword, making him stagger— she didn’t care if the sword grazed her skin. Her eyes were always on the prize. Soon enough he was on the floor. Both could only hear each others heavy breathing and the thumping in their chests.

Except Aemond’s heart was fueled by adrenaline and worry.

“I cut you—,”

“It’s alright. My move was risky. You did very well.”

“No, I should have—,”

“Aemond,” she looked down at him, tone stern and hand reached out. “You did well. You’re improving.”

Biting the inside of his cheek, Aemond nodded with a downcast expression. His hand finding hers.

“Would I lie to you?”

“No.”

“Then don’t look as if I have. It’s a happy day, and I expect you to have a glorious time. I can’t dance with moping feet.”

Sure enough, Aemond perked up. She danced with him for almost half the night. In the beginning of the banquet he had her all to himself. He would have accompanied her during the hunt, but Dameon had to fucking steal her the moment he arrived.

Aemond knew he’d have to be a fool not to count Daemon and Nyra as competitors. Seven hells, he felt jealousy creep up his spine when his own mother and siblings had her attention.

He knew about his mothers past with Jaehaera. It was the plot to most of his bestie stories as a child. The fondness of Alicent’s voice while talking about her seeped into his ears like wax on paper. Sealing a decree like a code of honor. Only as he grew older did he recognize the emotion he knew all too well within his mothers eyes. And his brother and sister were no better. 

So he’d use the similarity in interests to his advantage.

If Jaehaera was on training grounds, so was he.

If she was in the library it was because he had ordered new books, told her of them, and awaited for her there. Where they would talk of philosophy, fantasy, politics, and morality. Often whilst sitting in close proximity— enough to be considered in each others laps (head, feet, hips, all were touched when in reach).

He’d ride beside as they flew through the sky. Their dragons kindred. Sometimes they’d race, sometimes Aemond watched as she do tricks— practically hanging from her saddle.

And if this weren’t enough…

He’d place his hand strategically wherever was closest to touching another person. If they were in a group, and someone’s shoulder was close enough to brush against Jaehaera’s— Aemond’s hand was there in seconds. No one but family deserved to touch her, and even then he felt limitations.

He’d see Aegon kiss her skin and cling to her “like a child”. The bastard was more cunning then he let on.

Most of the time he had the strength to let it go, but other times he simply walked over and kicked his brother in the shin.

Holding her hand was his predominant way for showing his affection. He wasn’t shameless like Aegon. He saved farther physicality for private. There he was more aggressive. Constantly grabbing what he was allowed, nudging the rules as him and Jaehaera talked by the fire in his or her room— hand creeping and molding into her thigh.

OH— and the level of obsession he has with her back is insane. Sure, before his own scar, he found them mesmerizing, but after the incident they took on an entirely different meaning for Aemond. He knew how it felt. To be marked. For all the world to see.

What people didn’t know was that her scars didn’t stop at the end of her spine. They went till the middle of her thighs, circling around them like snakes. And a few even made their way around her rib cage, just below her breasts.

Only few had seen them (cough cough– Daemon and Rhaenyra, and a few others you’ll meet), and he’d only got the chance because she needed help replacing her bandages one day after coming back from battle.

She’d never let the maesters treat them. She thought them imbeciles. And if she were to be open— as she was with anyone she allowed to see; they always asked the same question: “How did you get them?”

It was a sensitive topic for her. And the story only made Aemond feel even more encompassed by his love for her. (That’ll be a story for later.)

Let’s just say, he rubbed that in his brothers face— tastefully. No details of her tale, but enough to get back at Aegon for his vulgar comments.

Aemond always kept his eyepatch off when they were alone with each other. Simply because Jaehaera had picked out the very gem laying in his socket, and she said “You look beautiful.”

Let that sink in.

Jacaerys and Lucerys felt the same in this regard…

Both agreed that no one (lord, lady, or ruler) would be worthy of Jaehaera. It was simple as that. A shared idea amongst the whole family. She was the one thing that could unite the feuding sides.

However— unlike their cousins— they viewed Jaehaera like another mother. So while Aegon and Aemond had their own selfish ideals— along with their mother and Daemon— the boys just wanted Jaehaera to be happy.

Yes, they were Rhaenyra’s boys. But they were also her boys.

And from what they could see, and the way in which she spoke to them, she already was happy. Traveling was her passion, and they never wished to see that disappear. She was their idol, who they looked up too (other than Rhaenyra).

She taught Jace everything and anything to do with swordsmanship and whatever else he needed or wanted. The same with Luke. She treated them equally, distributing affection evenly through words of praise, tight hugs and loving pats atop their heads.

Luke never felt left out for his lack of experience in sword craft, nor was he shamed for not wanting his position. She praised him for his kindness and compassion, while others mocked it for weakness. Jaehaera urged his love of music and poetry, and often snuck him out of the palace (as well as Jace if he wished to come) to travel to foreign lands. It didn’t matter if he’d have to go to schooling with only an hour of rest. He’d do it every night if he could.

Jaehaera never once made Jace feel pressured in his title, being heir to the throne— when so many questioned his legitimacy. She would simply say, “if they call you illegitimate than I am a fraud.” For if he could defend her name with valiance and ferocity , then why could he not do the same for himself. She never denied that he was of Strong, but she never let him say that he was not Laenor’s son. Her dear friend doted more dutifully to those boys than most fathers in general. He was, in every sense she believed important, their father.

So… both were more supportive than the rest in the notion of her getting married. Secretly, they may hope she’d marry someone close to them so they could see her more (a little bias towards some suitors). But as long as Jaehaera is happy, they are too.

(We’ll talk about Laenor later, just know he’d support whatever she’d want caused they’re each others emotional support people. Besties for life.)

Viserys hated the thought as well…

and was ever so delighted upon hearing her destain for the idea as well. Hypocritical of him, he’d admit. Pushing for one daughter to marry while pending the other for as long as able; it was chaos he had a hand in. But in his heart and mind he knew it must be that way. But his word always guaranteed the very known truth…

Jaehaera was not to be touched, unless she wished it so.

***

(Definitely gonna do the girls later, but I think it’s kinda obvious that they’re somewhat the same as the boys.)

masterlist

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The dance of the dragons erupted over the kingdoms, the people, the old and young, the lords and ladies. They all chose sides.

The green with King Aegon the second of his name firstborn son of Viserys the first and his rzwieten wife Alicent Hightower.

They paid homage to the king and his sister's wife Helaena Targaryen, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. The other side of Westeros professed allegiance to the black house of Targaryen, not the green and gold soaked by Hightower.

They believed in the black and red of the tragaryen dragons. Their rightful queen appointed and summoned by her father Viserys.

Rhaenyra Targaryen the only living child of the former king from his first marriage. It was a battle of two sides a battle of blood, fire and death as swords and swords turned against each other.

In this war in their own house, love and cohesion faced each other. Until it began.

A son for his son was the cry in the streets of King's Landing when they heard of the death of the prince of the realm.

Lucerys Velaryon second-born son of Queen Rhaenyra killed across the sea with his dragon by his own uncle Aemond. The prince's death soon brought the wrath of his mother down on him.

But everyone in the small council realized that it would affect them, and the death was only the beginning. ,,It will come upon us and pray to our mother that she will show mercy," said the Queen Dowager Alicent to her children, but especially to Aemond. They had dared and now they would have to fight back.

While Daeron, Aegon and Aemond took on the war with the soldiers, the queen had other worries. Her mistress had other worries, they both had worries that went far beyond the war.

The daughter of the Lannister's great cousin at table from a high house as lady in waiting for the queen, more than friendship blossomed between the two.

When Aegon ignored his wife, which he usually did, it was she who was always there for Heleana. She was there for her, appreciating her, trying to understand her dragon dreams.

It came to the first gentle kiss when she pricked her finger while embroidering and the blonde took her hand. ,,That's how the pain goes away, my butterfly," the queen had said, giving her a gentle smile.

It was the first time that she had simply pulled the queen gently towards her and their lips met. It was different it wasn't awkward like Aegon said Heleana it was so much more.

But now war was raging at the worst time for a mother. A look from the Lannister to the queen made her sigh, and Heleana tried for the third time to get her spider to answer.

Putting the book aside, she went over to the blonde and knelt by her. She saw the violet eyes full of temptation to finally get an answer.

,,Heleana my dreamer... you can't force it," she said reminiscently and heard the sigh that sounded almost nervous. She placed her hand on the queen's and carefully took the spider from her and placed it back under the glass bell.

Before the blonde finally looked at her and Heleana seemed to wake up from her emotions. ,,Butterfly? I'm sorry the dreams just won't come...everything is like a fire that won't go out," she said, placing her hand on her beloved's.

The warmth of the Targaryen met the coolness of the sword-wielder. Before she brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, the king leaned against her for a moment, lying in her arms.

Physical contact was something Heleana struggled with, they both knew that, and yet Heleana loved to hug her children Jahaerys, Jahaera and Maelor. She also loved to hug, hold, kiss and love her beloved, her butterfly.

The queen loved to listen to the heartbeat, to feel the life, the fire, it sustained her. ,,I know...I know it all too well Heleana, but you have us your family," she reminded the Targaryen and rose to help her beloved up before they walked over to the three children.

The three blond siblings smiled at their mother and the "aunt" happily held out the new toy in the form of a dragon. The two played with the princes and princess not knowing that when the moon would set the room would be streaked with blood.

As the three children gathered in front of the fireplace under a coat of toys, Heleana read to them.

The old legends and stories while her butterfly opposite imitated the movements of warriors and dragons to give the three children more.

But the laughter that went through the room made her heart fill with joy, seeing the look of her queen she recognized the love that was in those violet eyes. Love for each other and her family.

Until it came that the children's laughter was interrupted as the wooden door was ripped open there were no guards, no dowager queen, no king or uncle. It was blood and cheese hired by the blacks to exact revenge.

Heleana wanted to grab her children, but the two men were quicker. Lady Lannister reached for the dagger she always carried.

Standing protectively in front of Heleana, she tried to do something against them, but in the face of two swords of the two who had nothing to lose, the crying children and the pleading Heleana, she knew that the fate of the gods was impossible to avert.

The blood splattered on the ground, the blood running down the blade as Jahaerys was stabbed.

She heard the scream of Heleana as she rushed to the ground holding her dead son in her arms while the two men fled, ,,A son for a son" echoed between the screams and cries of the queen. Jahaera and Maelor were held close by the Lannister, not wanting them to see what had happened.

She barely noticed the wound on her arm where the sword had wounded her until weeks later when the scar had formed and she could see it clearly that night.

The night she had lost her kind, sweet Heleana to death. Her two remaining children left distraught and traumatized.

Her mother slowly went mad, deppresion took hold of her and her butterfly tried everything she could to be the dream that held her together.

The thing she was most afraid of was that she would do something else to herself in her madness.

That she herself would become a dream. She knocked on the door and asked to come in, but she knew there would be no answer. never.

,,I'm coming in my queen" she said calmly knowing that Heleana would not shout at her that she was quiet when she came in.

The room that was once brightly lit for her children and insects was now darkened, the candles almost burnt out, the fireplace only glowing, and in a mess of her firstborn son's clothes and furs the queen looked on.

Her violet mysterious eyes looking at the toy had lost all luster, her dreams if she slept at all were marked by blood and death and with every second they seemed to move further away from her knowing that it was not over.

,,My Queen...Dreamer...Heleana my Flame" she called the names as she sat down by her, carefully placing her hand over the green fabric of her clothes, feeling the wetness of the tears. She had been crying again all night. ,,My son," the queen said as if he was still with her as she looked at the toy.

It was a sight that hurt her, made her scars burn and she knew she could do nothing but be there for them.

,,Your son Jahaerys wants you to go on...don't let your darkness take you over," she said calmly and tried to put a hand on hers but Heleana flinched away, pulled back into her memories, afraid.

They were all traumatized, no one had been spared, not even Aegon the father, who only became more aggressive and drunk.

,,Your family is suffering too my flame...talk it would help you" she tried and stood up and went to the candles and started to blow them out, trying not to cry as she opened the curtains knowing that they were still splattered with blood and needed to be replaced.

,,I can't take away your pain, but I can take care of you," she said and had some food prepared for her beloved, brought it to her, sat down next to her and tried to talk to her for hours, to convince her to eat.

Until suddenly the moon was in the sky, the fire in the fireplace was blazing and her scar was burning, Heleana seemed to have a little moment when she touched her spider.

She seemed to see again, to dream into the future. Tears continued to fall down her cheeks as she looked at her beloved.

,,My heart...I'm sorry the green is torn in the wind and pierced by wood," she said, murmuring the words and wrapping her in her arms, she ate the food that night and seemed to sleep peacefully for a few hours.

These were hours in which she stroked the queen's blond hair, sang an old song from her family to her, watched her dagger and resolved to protect Heleana.

To protect her love. Before she was back in her arms she was crying and sobbing but she was there for a moment, back from the darkness.

But the words, those damned words punished by the gods, would only reach her when it was too late. When she had just built Heleana up so that she would not break, at least not immediately.

She sometimes even smiled when she saw her butterfly when their hands joined and held each other.

It was the only thing that had sustained her since she became too agitated, too crazy to mount Dreamfyre and fly. It was a chilly day, a chilly morning, when the letter was one of the last to reach her.

The news she hoped would not happen. Maelor Targaryen second son of Aegon and Heleana was about to be dismembered and killed by the mob of the population as revenge for the bad treatment and the war.

She hurried out of her room, the letter in her hand delivered by one of her father's ravens.

,,Heleana! Heleana do you hear me!" she screamed along the corridors as the mournful sounds of the servants, the dowager queen, rushing troops after the people and the king screaming and crying were already heard through the castle. But Heleana had not heard her beloved dreamer.

She ran, almost rushing up the stairs so hastily she took the steps, screaming for her beloved, feeling the fear in her heart. ,,Heleana beloved say something!" she shouted up the stairs when she finally arrived in front of the tower door she pushed it open without hesitation, afraid of what she would find.

She saw the room looking almost peaceful, the sun shining through the windows, through the open window, the toys arranged on the table next to the book and the insects. But the image of peace and tranquillity was pervaded by it.

The spider was dead, the dreamer was dead. The green dress that stood in the window frame, her eyes veiled by tears, the silent ,,Thank you, my heart" that she could almost hear before she disappeared.

Queen Heleana threw herself out of the window, the wind taking her with it as she hit the wooden spikes at the bottom of the pit, her body pierced.

The scream of her beloved rushing to the window was carried away by the wind before, in a moment of her own desperate madness, she leapt for her beloved too.

Into the arms of her beloved. They both ended up becoming what she had feared.

They both became a dream in the history of Westeros, a page in the war that would go down in the history books as the Dance of the Dragons.

Snow

It's snowing for me and thus snowy snow with the Targaryens

@akela

Young Rheanyra doesn't understand her best friend's obsession with the snow. She doesn't quite understand that to her friend it meant that they can hear pure silence out in the Godswood. It meant that for a while, they can disappear into the snow and be hidden for hours.

"Princess, you need to stop gawking," Otto mumbled quietly toward the teen.

"They are my betrothed, Ser Hand. I can watch them all I want." Rheanyra said, looking toward him, a bored look on her face. The other ladies looked at the group and then noticed the other person in the snow.

Daemon watched as his partner flopped into the snow inside the Godswood. He had a smile on his face the entire time as the person let themselves get buried in the snow while his daughters buried them. "Girls, be careful!" He called out, leaning against a tree.

Viserys loved seeing his favorite people altogether, and with the snow. Aemma was making sure Rheanyra was bundled up while their shared partner was leaving small berries in the snow for the wild animals.

"Be careful, sweet!" Aemma called out, looking up at their partner for a second. Viserys let out a loud laugh. "They are always careful, Aemma."

Older Rhaenyra held a bundled-up Joffery to her chest as her other children ran around her lover. Their eyes were full of love as they played with the boys. "Jace! Do not shove snow down Luce's shirt!" The person called out, a small laugh bubbling out.

"Let them be boys, jorrāelagon," Rheanyra called out, a smile on her face.

Young Alicent laughed as her friend tossed a snowball at her. She hurried to bundle up a bit of snow to toss back. "Alicent!" Her head jerked hearing Rheanyra call for her only for a snowball to hit her in the face.

"Unfair!" She called out.

Alicent smiled watching Aemond's carer show him the snow, Aegon was already faceplanted in it and Heleana was bundled up trying to hide from it. The toddler babbled as he watched the person scoop up snow and hold it out in front of him. "Careful of the cold with him!" She quickly spoke, making the person look up. "Do not worry, My Queen. I know to not shock him."

Corlys and Rhaenys watched as their lover played with Laenor and Laena in the snow of Driftmark. The two chuckled when the children tackled them to the ground.

Aegon held his glass of wine, watching as his love sat in the snow, letting it drop on them. "You do not need to be getting sick, my love."

The person laughed softly, turning to look at him. "The Maester's can take care of me, do not worry, my prince."

Heleana laughed as her children's carer showed them a frosted leaf, telling them about how it freezes over to preserve itself. She couldn't hide her love for the carer.

Aemond had a warm cloth pressed under his eyepatch as he watched his lover study the trees being covered in snow. "My love, I will need to head in soon." He warned, pretending to itch under the leather of his eye cover to show that he was hurting.

"Let us go in now, my love. I need not you being sick."

Teaser

Pairings: Helaena x reader(main), Aemond x reader(platonic)

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the House of The Dragon or Fire & Blood characters. I do not claim any of them as my own. This work is purely fictional.

TW: slight mention of blood

(A/N: This is the teaser for chapter 1! I've had this idea for a while, and I'm really excited to finally write it out! I should have chapter 1 posted in a day or two!)

Helaena perked up once she heard the front door to the estate slam shut. Her amaranthine eyes sparkled with hope as she peered out towards the main hall from her spot at the dining room table. Helaena watched as you strutted in alongside Aemond. She took note of the fact that you no longer wore the blazer that you left in, and that the sleeves of your once white shirt were rolled up to your elbows and spotted with crimson. 

“ Helaena-'' Daeron's voice fell silent to Helaena’s ears as her eyes traveled. They followed the path of your arms down to your violet-hued knuckles, and then to the gleam of your twirling knife. It was the same karambit blade that the blonde always saw strapped to your harness. Oh god, that damned harne-

“Helaena!” Daeron’s voice popped through the haze surrounding his sister. 

“What?” Helaena groaned, annoyance swirling in her eyes as she turned to face him. 

“Could you be more obvious?” The youngest snorted as he nodded his head towards the entrance. Helaena’s cheeks blossomed a deep red as her head snapped to look into the hall once more. Her features softened in surprise as she met your pointed stare. A single eyebrow arched at her in questioning. She prepared herself for teasing remarks or taunting questions, but instead, like always, you simply smirked and continued your conversation with Aemond. Helaena fidgeted with her hands as she watched you walk further into the house with her brother. By the gods…’ why does she make me feel this way?’ the blonde groaned internally.

Heleana Tragaryen x handmaid!reader

Masterlist

“Did you know, Butterflies taste with their feet?” You asked, as Heleana embroidered a butterfly. She looked up to you a big smile on her face, she loved that you took on her interests. Though a maid, you seemed more devoted to her than anyone. You were with her nearly every second, you woke her, delivered her meals, dressed her, read to her. You were her closest friend, her children loved you and her husband was jealous of you. Why you did not know, perhaps it was the longing gazes she would send you whenever she was in another’s company, or how the second her husband left she would call for you to comfort her.

“I did” she smiled, “they also have six legs.” She spoke, patting the seat next to her, inviting you to sit down.

You smiled, “I did not know that my Princess.”

My. She loved when you said it, it was so different to how others would say it, where there were formalities, yours was… it was if you were saying she was yours.

She looked over to you, you were both on her settee, your bodies so close, you could her Heleana’s heartbeat, and as she turned to face you, your faces so close your breaths became one.

You and she were always like this, so close you were almost entwined, she loved your touch, craved it. She hated the touch of others and yet with you she prayed you would touch her more. It seemed they were almost always at the edge, the other waiting for the other to make a move, to finally grab the others neck and pull it in for a kiss, and as Heleana moved closer, her eye lashes caressing your cheeks in sweet kisses, you both knew to be called a butterfly kiss.

You moved your head, not to retreat, but to move closer, your lips hovering before finally touching.

The kiss was sweet, perfect. It wasn’t heated but still passionate, it was what you had both dreamt about for so long, and as your tongue sweeping her lips, begging for entrance, Heleana let out the softest, prettiest moan, opening her mouth and allowing their tongues to dance. Heleana lent back, allowing you to crawl over her, your hand going to her waist, and her legs wrapping around your waist.

The kiss grew more heated, the pair, moaning and painting into each other’s mouth as they grinded against each other.

You pulled back, breathing shallow as you took in Heleana’s form, “I have been wating for this for so long” you breath, before moving to stand.

Heleana whined in protest “so have I” as she reached her arms out to you.

You walked back towards her bed, beckoning her to you, a gleeful smile gracing her face as she skipped over.

 She was quick to sit in your lap, taking you once more in a passionate kiss, your hands reached to her back, beginning to untie the places you had lovably laced this morning.

She pulled back slightly, whispering “I love you” against your lips.

You smiled, kissing her softly, “ I love you” she smiled, “I have loved you since the moment I saw you”

“as have I,I have longed for your touch, dreamed of it as i-“

You cut her off. “so have I, my love.”  Gods had you, every night you came with her name on your lips, your fingers stretching your cunt, as you imagined yourself tasting her and fucking her with her fingers, felling her, sucking marks into places only you and Aegon would see, imagining the look on Aegon’s face as he realised his wife had felt more pleasure at the hands of a maid than he could ever give to her.

Her dress now undone, fell from her body, settling around her waist, leaving her in a near see through chemise.

“gods” you moaned; a sight you see regularly but now you can finally enjoy it. And enjoy it you did.

Moving from her lips to her neck and now enclosing around the fabric around her nipple.

You wanted to be gentle, and slow and take her in, but from the sweet moans that feel from her lips at the simple touch, she quickly flipped them, pulling the rest of Heleana dress down and taking her own off, though unlike Heleana she did not. She was bare before her, and as Heleana’s back hit the bed, she gasped at the sight of your body, to the sight of your breasts and your cunt, you were wet, and from the look on Helena’s face the sight of you made her even wetter herself.

“please” she begged, moving to take of her chemise, leaving her also bare.

“gods” you groaned once more she was perfection.

She spread her legs, presenting her heat to you, groaning as you saw how wet she was, you licked her lips, craving her taste.

You quickly fell you knees, your head buying itself between her thighs.

Licking up her slit she moaned so loudly you knew the guards could here, and gods you hoped they did.

As you licked up her wetness, you slowly mad you away to her clit, giving quickly small licks to it, making Heleana moan and grip your head.

You slowly moved one of your hands, that was gripping her down, to her heat, slowly working one of her fingers into her, sucking on her clit as she did so, causing her to moan even louder.

You could feel Heleana’s cunt tighten around your fingers, her peak approaching.

Her moans grew louder, her hands tightening on your neck as she finally peaked. She had never felt such pleasure. Aegon had never remotely made her feel this way and her fingers had never brought her as much pleasure as you were right now.

“gods” she moaned, lying back on the bed, her breathing erratic as she tried to catch her breath, “that was amazing” she sighed, her arms lazily reaching fro you, as you collapsed beside her, holding you to her.

She turned to you, her eyes questioning “can I?”

You laughed “I would love you too my love, but not to night, tonight I simply wish to sleep with you in my arms.”

You kissed her gently, as you wrapped your arms around her and you both drifted into a peaceful sleep.

❝Forbidden pursuits❞

☾︎✰❛❀ Gwayne hightower x Fem! Reader x Alicent hightower

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: You, a Cole of Stormlands and one of the ladies in waiting, had been indulged with the green queen for quite a time. It just so happened that her brother came to king's landing and you truly realised the beauty of the hightowers. Something that could get you in tremendous trouble.

𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐬/𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬: Sexual themes, kissing, jealousy, homophobia, mentions of patriarchy and death, class differences and slightly possessive behaviour.

🪐𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬: I had this idea as soon as I saw hotd season two. I mean, I've never done a writing where reader was interested in two characters at once, but there's a first time for everything I guess. And this turned out to be more of a alicent x reader fic, than a gwayne/alicent fic I realised as I kept writing it, but here it is! And yes, I quoted Bridgerton.

You were soaking in bliss.

One of her hands cupped your cheeks, her thumb lazily running circles around them as her other held your waist tightly. Like you would run away and never come back. She always did that, holding you in her grasp so closely, like she couldn't get close enough, as though you both could become one. Alicent Hightower, or rather, the queen, was unable to do anything under your touch, she went so weak and you didn't even know it.

You first met her after the tourneys, after your brother defeated the rogue prince. She had already seen your brother, but stopped dead in her tracks as her eyes fell on you, so beautiful as you talked with Criston inside the castle walls. Her chest bundling up with feelings that were improper and forbidden for a lady. Especially when it came to another one. After her unfortunate marriage, she did become close with your brother—but you? avoided as if you were the plague. To her, you were always a forbidden thing. Something she can never have.

Or rather never allow herself to have.

But after the infamous engagement night of princess Rhaenyra and ser Laenor, as she saved ser Criston, all she could think about was you. If your brother was banished or hanged, you would be heartbroken. And also, your reputation will also be ruined, she felt this need to protect you—to keep you close to her. And you would probably move away. Considering all of them, she saved the life of your brother.

Afterwards, she allowed herself to interact with you, convincing herself that it was only right that she gets to know his family after doing such a huge favour for him. Refusing to even the thought that it was all just an excuse to see you. And yet, she found herself staring at your lips as you spoke, having the urge to grab you and kiss them so strong it scared her. You scared her. All these things, these horrifying feelings she felt, how out of control her mind because at just your mere presence? well she could already imagine the look on her father. Of disgust.

Especially when Criston started talking to you about marriage, to have a lord from a suitable house be betrothed to you. He had thought Alicent would be thrilled about that idea as he proposed it, now that he had her favour. Little did he know she was nowhere near happy about it. You, who held her fragile heart in your hands without even knowing it, you, who made her skin shiver at even the mere thought of you—you, who was the bane of her existence yet the object of all her very desires. You.

How could she let anyone else steal you and your heart?

She let your brother on, avoiding the subject as long as she could. After all she was being selfish. You were probably nothing like her, you must fawn over knights and lords. Dream of marrying one. You would never share her— those absurd feelings she refused to ever acknowledge. There was no point in keeping you close to her. Until that night took place.

The night you kissed her.

You and her had been sitting in her bed in her private chambers, eating dinner and talking all the gossips about the castle. With you, she felt like a young girl she used to be with Rhaenyra. She had just put baby Helena to bed, well the maids did, but she watched. She never really knew how to take care of her children, when she felt like a child herself.

But with you, there was peace, happiness and a bubbling feeling in her chest. This was the sole moment between you and her, just alone in the comforts of her chamber. This felt oddly intimate to her, but she was sure it was nothing like that to you or any other ordinary lady who liked spending time with friends. She remembers it so well.

“And” you speak, barely able to control your laughter, “her baby looked quite like the Ser Arthur might I add, instead of her husband. She didn't even deny that when I asked.”

Alicent smiles, her chest bundling with joy at the sight of you laughing. She loved seeing you happy, the curve of your jaw and the lashes of your eyes, they were strangely so perfect. Everything about you aligned all so perfectly, she wondered if you even knew. If she herself even knew how much she craved you.

“Your grace?” she hears you speak out, snapping out of her momenterlly thoughts containing you, “are you listening?”

A frown appeared on her face. You had never called her by her name. Always so formal. She never objected since she felt the eyes of her father's little birds everywhere, and it would be inappropriate for one to think that the queen was giving a companion this much liberty. Especially when that companion just so happened to be a lady. But right now? this moment was just yours and hers.

“You can call me Alicent.” She says, a bare softness in her tone, “I tend to believe we are close friends now.

You formed an ‘oh’ shape in your lips, slowly and hesitantly nodding. She waited, to hear those words out of you. To see how her name would sound like from your mouth.

“Okay, Alicent.”

Gods, it was heaven. Her eyes widened, a quick hitch escaping her. You..said her name? and it sounded so sweet, so pure coming from you. Like she has just gotten something she didn't know she had been craving and aching for until now. If heaven existed, it was you for her.

She couldn't help herself before words came spilling out of her mouth, “Say it again.” your eyes widen, a bit overwhelmed and shook. It seemed she herself was surprised at her own request, but didn't convey any further. You gulped, unknowingly a shiver coming down your spine. This felt...close and personal. This felt forbidden.

“....Alicent.”

“Again.”

Your head looks up at her, “I.... Alicent?”You see her sigh, her chest heaving. You notice there's a bite of the stew you both ate a few minutes ago, on her lips. Without thinking, you reach out your hand, her breath hitches as your thumb brushes against her lower lip. You got caught in a haze, your thumb slowly lingering a bit longer than it should. Her eyes, brown and wide, stared at you with a look you couldn't quite figure out. All you knew was that your heart was beating faster than ever, moonlight striking on her beautiful face as the winds seemed to slow down. You did not know what came to you, when your head leaned in so close to her's, your foreheads touching.

And your lips softly brushed against hers.

It was slow at first, but you got the steady—ness you needed when she moved her lips against yours. That she did not pull away, with a disgusted look. If you had kissed her before she had gotten married, perhaps she would have. But at this moment? when she was mother to two and in a marriage with a man twice her age, she wouldn't let go of any chance of happiness. Of love. Of her truest desires. You. She grabbed your neck, pulling you even closer with a surprising desperation and ache. Humming quietly as she felt the taste of your lips, pink and rosemary. It was so, better, and softer compared to Viserys. It was everything she wanted. Needed.

After that day, she told you—or rather asked for you to stay by her side. That she'd make you one of her ladies—in—waiting. It was surprising, that Alicent wanted you all the time after the very moment you both shared. Because of the fact that she used to go to the sept every day after seeing you, praying to the gods for them to rid her of this feeling, this sin. The one she felt every time she saw you. But after that kiss? how could it be wrong if it felt all so right?

So you stayed. And she took it as a blessing. Took you as one. Because to her, you were.

And now there you are, tangled in each other after all these years. It had been a few weeks, since her husband's death. Yet she felt more free than ever before.

You had been laying beside her in her bed, only the sheets covering both your bodies. She turned to look at you, pupils expanding at the sight of you. Alicent nestled her face in the crook of your neck, as you felt a blush rise up your cheeks. This—even after all the chaos of the court and her children, this was heaven.

“Y/N?” you heard her muffled voice speak up, tilting your chin to get a better look.

“Hmm?”

She peaked her head up, the sunlight and its rays coming up to reflect on both of you, the morning was still early and it was her most favourite part of the day. Because you were there, wrapped up in her. Alicent's fingers traced up from your jaw to your cheeks and eventually settling on to caress your forehead and eye brows. She was always so attentive and gentle in how she took care of you, as if you were her most prized possession. She wondered how a breathing living soul could have this much power over her.

“I—” she hesitates, not because she's unsure but because she's afraid you are, “I love you.”

Your eyes blow wide open, lips parting. Of course, it was evident you both cared and lusted for each other, but love? you did feel a brewing in your chest every time you saw your brother looking at her with loving eyes, or her smiling at him in return. And perhaps a sick yet joyous feeling in your chest as she would kiss your cheek while baby Aegon or Aemond had been playing in your lap years ago. A swelling feeling of something you did know would only result in heartbreak.

She was the queen, the very queen of the seven kingdoms. While you came from a steward's house with no land or title to yourself.

And now she was telling you she shared your love? that she was in love with you? No. It couldn't happen. You were a woman, and so was she. Even if that boat sailed a long time ago, it still did not change the fact that this was wrong and frowned upon in so many ways. You could even be beheaded, hanged or much worse. Besides, she doesn't mean it. How could she? you were you, while she was everything. Even if she's saying it now, when she comes out of the daze, she'll regret every thing she said.

“I—no!” you get up, shrinking away from her embrace. Alicent follows your movement, a sudden fear and heartache in her eyes. “I..I can't do that.”

“Do what? Y/N, I'm sorry if I upsetted you—”

You interrupt her, harshly, “No!” your chest becomes heavy, breathing ragged. “You have no idea what you're saying and I...I will never share the same feelings.”

Suddenly you regret saying that, saying anything. Because she has a pool of tears forming in her eye lids.

You realise it is because of you. Of course that was a lie, you loved her more than you thought possible. Alicent Hightower had your heart the moment you had seen her, but now? You had possibly lost the best thing of your life. All because of insecurity. You just did not know how much you really did mess up, until it becomes too late. Hightowers don't let anyone get away with hurting them, you should have known that. Especially when another one was about to come in your life.

It had been a month and twelve days since you had not talked to Alicent.

So much had happened in that time. Aegon's son, Jahaerys, a baby, was executed while in his sleep. A period of mourning followed. She did not come to you once, instead being cold to her own son and preferring the company of your brother instead. You knew that when he was made the hand of the king, they both sitting together and even smiling at hallways.

Maybe you were being paranoid, but it was well deserved after what you had done.

However, the aftermath of the little boy's death, and speculation of it being Rhaenyra's hand, Aegon came to you. He knew you since he was a little baby, and saw you as a second mother. Perhaps you were more than Alicent was. He cried, confided how nobody in his council understands him—how his own mum doesn't acknowledge or understand his grief. You knew Alicent had a hard time with Aegon out of all her children, she saw him as all her failed dreams and ambitions. It was wrong. But you didn't blame her. You had seen what happened to her.

You offered him comfort, after what he had been through, it was the least you could offer. Also perhaps because you felt a tinge of guilt after everything that had happened with Alicent and you.

With Aemond, you adored the boy when he was a kid. He was sensitive and kind. That's what you loved the most about him. But, as years passed, with the driftmark incident and now, the stormlands one, he was completely unrecognisable. Cold, sharp and quiet. That's how he was. You did not know how to even approach him, he was smart, and everytime Alicent and you were in his presence, he was always watching attentively. Much like Otto. You did not want more reasons for Alicent to be angry with you any longer.

Much in your thoughts, you did not realise Criston speaking until he shook your arm. You snapped up to him, as he chuckles.

“Wish me luck?” he says, you are suddenly remembered where he was to go. Rook's rest with a pack of king's guards. You wanted him to be well, and alive, of course you did. Yet the small smile you gave couldn't help but be slightly forced.

“Of course,” your head lies low, biting your lip, “I wish you luck and for no harm to come to you, brother.”

Looking around, all the knights were either walking somewhere or getting their armour and suit dressed up. This could be dangerous as well as harming. Capturing rook's rest, the black queen might send one of her dragons. And Criston would be there to face the burn. Your chest tightened at the thought, you did not want your brother to be harmed let alone die.

Out of the corner of your eye, you see her, Alicent walking towards your direction. Your breath hitches, looking upwards of an excuse to leave but it's too late; she's already in front of your brother. Not even glancing at you.

“Your grace” he greets, as you cursty in response. She didn't spare you a single look. A bitter taste in your mouth formed at that.

“Ser Criston” Alicent looks at him, a glint in her eyes “may the seven guide you, good knight. And lead you not into shadow and death.”

There's an unspoken tension between them, as you look back and forth in—between the two. It was eating you away, like a knot grew further. Was there something there? even the thought made you want to scream. He thanked her for her prayers, and she turned away. You thought that was the end of it, before he called out to her. Requesting that she grant him her favour. That her lord commander may go into battle with her blessings in her heart.

“What are you doing?” you quietly hissed.

Alicent did not do anything, but as she saw your reaction, perhaps that changed her mind. She had a very light smirk, as she walked towards him. Your eyes widened as she took out a hanky, letter A engraved on it. You saw the whole interaction, their hands touching as he received it with a smile. You were...you didn't know what you were. All you knew was that you'd vomit if you watched a second more. You turn away, tears bubbling in your eyes as you walked away. You didn't see where you were going, only that you needed to be as far away as possible.

Until you bumped into someone.

“For god's sake!” a man with an accent of old town yelps out.

He was a knight. He was handsome, tall and sluggish. Light brown haired just like Alicent. You looked down to see hightower symbol at the centre of his armour. It dawned on you, he was Gwayne Hightower. Otto Hightower's oldest son. He was Alicent's brother. What truly concerned you was that you noticed the freckles on his cheeks to nose, the alignment of his jaw and the colour of his eyes. He was quite gorgeous.

“I apologize, my lord. I did not know where I was heading.”

Gwayne looks you up and down, lips pursued in a thin line as though he was trying to figure you out. His head tilted, and somehow you found the act more attractive than you should.

“The mistake was mine, my lady. I should have seen it from a mile ago.” he says, quite charmingly, “Although I do wonder, I did not catch your name. You see it's daily you see a beautiful woman when you're heading to a battlefield.”

A giggle escapes you, not knowing a pair of eyes that were on you.

“Why thank you, my lord.”

You smile, a genuine one. “I am...well I'm..” you knew the hightowers were quite upset at the revelation of your brother being named hand. It was a revenge scheme against Otto, but you were happy he got the chance. If he were to find out you were a Cole, perhaps he won't like you. But, why were you worried whether he likes you or not? a turmoil forms in your head, hands coming over to clasp themselves. You started in the only way you believed would be appropriate.

“I would first like to apologise for the late dismissal of your father, the formal lord hand. He served three kings very well.” you clear your throat, “I know it must feel, well, surprising and sort of a tiny betrayal. My brother was the least expectant candidate for the role.”

His mouth opens at the realisation, lips parting. He looked like he wanted to speak his mind, but stopped. Nodding modestly.

“I appreciate your kind words, Lady Cole.” he didn't fail to mention the disappointment in his tone. Although, a mischievous glint in his eyes was still there. “I do not mean to be rude, but I did not expect you when I thought of Criston Cole's sister.” your eyes furrowed, a frown on your lips. “What did you expect, my lord?”

Your heart quickens as he smiles, he has a beautiful smile. You think.

“I did not expect her to be so....kind hearted and well mannered.”

“Well mannered?” you repeat.

He's quick to respond, “I only meant, you turned out to be much more to my liking than I expected. Perhaps more than I will ever find your brother. But do not tell him that, my lady.”

A laugh escapes your lips, unknown to the very eyes you were so familiar with watching the whole ordeal.

“I wouldn't dream of it, my lord.” your voice was a whisper, eyes brightened. Gwayne had a smile of his own, only disappearing when Alicent called out for him.

“I should take my leave, my lady. A pleasure talking to you.” you watch him nod politely, walking away where Criston and Alicent stood. Suddenly you realised the butterflies in your chest, how taken you were with him. This was bad, very much so. Even if it was only a mere attraction, and what you shared with Alicent was much more—this wasn't good at all.

The night was moonless, only the stars light to keep you company. You liked to walk in the halls of the castle at night time, with no other to judge or peer at. No sounds of hushed and loud whispers, handmaidens running here and there or guards at every center. This was peaceful. Some would say it wasn't secure or safe, but since you hadn't encountered any accidents yet, you did not see a reason to stop. Although the silence left opportunities for thoughts.

You wondered if Gwayne was married. He was a knight, swore an oath of chastity, so probably not. It did not matter to you, all you were was curious. After what happened to Jahaerys, and Alicent focusing on her own family. Her real one—the one she created. You could say you felt a bit left out, she had a whole family of her own, the royal family. While you were no more than her mistress. It felt like a slap to your face, like reality struck down at you with a thousand bolts. You will never be the apple of her eye, her entire focus. You will always be on the sidelines.

As you walked further into the castle, you did not notice a tail of footsteps following behind before it was too late. A hand grabbed your shoulder, slamming you against the wall with much force.

“Ouch!” you hissed in pain, and immediately look forward to who caused it. Your chest tightened, eyes widening. Alicent stood there with both hands on your shoulders.

She lunged in, her lips attaching yours. This was different, a surprise yelp out of you came out muffled. Alicent was desperate in the way she held your waist, her other hand trailing up your neck. She never did this, in a public place where anyone could see. Hell—you, both could die if anyone were to even walk in the same direction. She was bold, harsh and angry. You could feel that in her kiss. Yet there was just a tiny tenderness in the way she caressed the chin of your face.

You gasped as she pulled away, rage in her eyes, and a little something else too, “You were smiling at him like he was about to charm your dress off?” she scoffs, jealousy in her voice. You realised who she hinted at, Gwayne, her brother.

“I—” you're cut off by the sinking feeling of her lips on your neck, softly sucking at your sweet spot, earning a very quiet moan from you. Alicent knew every inch of your body like it was her's, every scar, every burn and every where she knew you would succumb to her mercy.

You hushed, pleading for her to stop as one could see both of you. She did not. Alicent was being unfair, and you knew that. But you could not let her get away with it, not after she had made you feel such burning pain as well. You push her away, just lightly, enough to send her stumbling back on her feet. Eyes red. She had been crying, you notice, now that you had finally seen her clearly. A ache settles in your heart at the realisation. But you shrug it off.

“You can't treat me like I'm your personal girl at a brothel!” you shout in a whisper, as she scoffs. A malice on her tongue, “Well, seeing you making such affections on my brother, perhaps you are no less than any woman who works there.”

Your eyes widened at her implication, shock coming up you. How could she say that? to call you a...whore? You didn't see if Alicent regretted it, you did not give her a chance to before speaking yourself out of pure anger.

“And what if I did have affections for your brother? he is a charming man.”

This wasn't particularly a lie, and that scared you. Just how much of a beautiful man he was, and the way you felt around him.

“What?” her face drops, and you feel just a little satisfaction at seeing that. You both were furious, and unwilling to step down. She gritted her teeth, opening her mouth to say something more cruel but you beat her to it. —“Besides,” you start, your voice bitter, “you yourself share quite some... fondness for my brother, don't you? so why does it matter?”

That made her go quiet. And your heart even dropped more. Did it mean your words held any truth? that she really has caught some feelings for him? You were uncomfortable, very at that. Now you wished you never went for a walk in the first place. How did she even know this? did she follow you? you did not know.

Her eyes softened, “Do you really believe that?”

Before you answered, she sealed your lips with another yearning kiss. Reluctant to pull away as her lips maintained just mildly in contact with your lower lip as she pulled a bit back.

“I only want you, I've only ever wanted you. Not Criston, or anyone else. You. I thought you would have known that by now.”

She was referring to the morning she said those words. When she told you she loved you. Your harsh words, her tears, you start to remember everything. A pang of guilt comes to your chest, all this time you were afraid. Not just of the world, and the consequences, but of her. Alicent Hightower was the most beautiful woman you had ever seen, and she was a highborn, a lady, and eventually the queen. You were nowhere near compared to in terms of social class. A steward's daughter. You had always felt shame in that title. How could anyone love you? how could anyone as magnificent and enduring as Alicent love you? the queen of the seven kingdoms.

“I...” you breathe, unable to speak. It's either now or never. And you decide that Alicent Hightower is too deeply longed in your heart to lose.

“I love you.” Alicent's breath hitches at your sudden confession. Like she cannot breathe. She shakes her head, avoiding your eyes. “no you do not mean that. You can't, you're just saying that to ease my heart.”

You feel pain at her words, that she believed you did not love her. When in fact that's all you've been doing since you saw her. You take a hold of her shoulders, pushing her lips to yours. She gasps at the sudden act, but slowly her hands crept up your shoulders. A tear drops up on your cheek, you realise it's not yours. For the first time, neither of you care about the consequences. What would anyone say? the religion, family, society. You didn't care—not anymore, if you could hold her in your arms again and tell her just how much you love her. And neither did she.

Alicent releases an involuntary moan when your leg comes in between hers. Your knee shifting at her. She pulls away, looking for something. Staring directly into your eyes.

“You really, feel love for me?” she whispers, and you smile, pulling a strand of hair out of her eyes. “I always have. Before I even saw you. Your grace.”

She now has a smile of her own. Pulling you closer by your neck, “Well, then tell me again that you love me. It's your queen's order. And the punishment of rejecting it is fatal.”

You giggle at her words, “Oh is it?” she nods, a blush on both sides of her cheek. “Then how can I refuse? especially when I love you.” Alicent immediately kisses you before you could even finish the words. Hands coming up to cradle your face. This, this was love. You knew where it was going. And you were going to relish in it.

That night, you spend time in the queen's chambers. Filled with love and passion. And lust. You were always Alicent's soft spot. Her weakness, yet her power. And so was she yours. You know you love her. But, Gwayne Hightower? her brother. The thought of him brought dread to you, because of how much pleasure it brought. You didn't love him, but gods, you felt a great attraction towards him. Especially when he smiles. No, you couldn't do that. You had to distract yourself, spend more time with Alicent. The only time he did not come to your mind. Because if you didn't do that, and indulged in his thoughts, now that he was about to come back? well it would bring a great deal of trouble for you.

You knew Hightowers were always trouble.

pairing: rhaenyra x daughter!reader summary: rhaenyra targaryen, despite her responsibilities, spends a cherished day with her child, bonding over stories and a dragon ride. she later gives a heartfelt letter to her child, expressing her unwavering love and strength, ensuring they feel her presence even when she’s not around. warnings: fluff my etsy shop: camelot's scribe | letters from your favorite character

⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

the sun had barely risen over dragonstone, casting a soft, golden hue across the island fortress. the distant sound of waves crashing against the rocky shore created a soothing rhythm, one that you had come to associate with home. as you made your way through the winding corridors of the castle, the faint smell of the sea lingered in the air, mingling with the scent of burning candles and freshly baked bread.

in the heart of dragonstone, your mother, rhaenyra targaryen, sat by the large wooden table in her chambers, poring over maps and letters. her presence was commanding, her silver-gold hair cascading down her back, and her eyes, the same striking violet as yours, filled with determination and love.

"good morning, mother," you greeted her, entering the room with a small smile.

rhaenyra looked up, her stern expression softening as she saw you. "good morning, my sweet dragon," she replied, her voice warm and melodic. "come, sit with me."

you crossed the room and took a seat beside her. despite the weight of her responsibilities, rhaenyra always made time for you, her child. it was a promise she had made to herself and one she never broke.

"how are you feeling today?" she asked, reaching out to gently touch your hand.

"better," you replied, though the concern in her eyes told you she knew better. "i was hoping we could spend some time together today."

rhaenyra nodded, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "of course. i've finished most of my duties for the morning. what would you like to do?"

"can we go for a ride on syrax?" you asked, your eyes lighting up at the thought of flying with your mother on her magnificent dragon.

rhaenyra's smile widened, and she stood up, offering her hand. "i think that sounds like a wonderful idea."

together, you made your way to the dragon pit, where syrax awaited. the great golden dragon let out a low rumble as she saw rhaenyra approach, her eyes gleaming with recognition. with practiced ease, rhaenyra helped you climb onto syrax's back before mounting herself.

as syrax took to the skies, you felt the familiar rush of wind against your face, the exhilaration of flight filling your heart. rhaenyra's arms wrapped securely around you, her warmth and strength a comforting presence.

"you know, your father loved to fly," rhaenyra said, her voice carrying over the roar of the wind. "it was one of the things we bonded over when we were young."

you turned to look at her, curiosity piqued. "will you tell me more about him?"

rhaenyra's eyes softened, and she nodded. "of course, my love. your father was a brave and noble man, with a heart full of passion and fire. he loved deeply and fiercely, much like you."

as she spoke, you felt a sense of connection to a past you had never known, a bond that transcended time and space. the stories of your father's bravery and love filled you with pride and a deeper understanding of your own heritage.

hours passed as you flew together, sharing stories and laughter. when you finally returned to dragonstone, the sun was beginning to set, casting a warm, golden light over the castle.

later that evening, as you prepared for bed, a knock on your door interrupted your thoughts. rhaenyra entered, holding a folded piece of parchment in her hand.

"i wrote something for you," she said, her voice soft and filled with emotion. "i thought it might bring you comfort when i'm not around."

you took the letter from her, your heart swelling with love and gratitude. "thank you, mother."

rhaenyra kissed your forehead, her touch tender and loving. "goodnight, my sweet dragon. sleep well."

as she left the room, you unfolded the letter and began to read:

my dearest child,

in the quiet moments when i am alone with my thoughts, my heart often turns to you. i see in you the strength and spirit of our ancestors, the fire of the targaryens burning brightly within your soul. it is a fire that will guide you through the darkest of times and illuminate your path when all seems lost.

know that my love for you is boundless, a fierce and unwavering force that no distance or time can diminish. you are my pride, my joy, and my greatest treasure. every decision i make, every battle i fight, is for you and our family's future.

when the weight of the world feels too heavy, remember the stories i have told you of our ancestors' bravery and resilience. you come from a line of kings and queens, warriors and dreamers, and you carry their legacy within you.

i may not always be by your side, but my love and my spirit will forever be with you. be brave, my sweet dragon, and let your heart guide you. trust in yourself, for you have a strength within you that is unmatched.

with all my love, mother

tears filled your eyes as you read the letter, each word a testament to your mother's love and devotion. you folded it carefully and placed it under your pillow, a precious reminder of the bond you shared.

as you drifted off to sleep, you felt a sense of peace and comfort, knowing that no matter what challenges lay ahead, your mother's love would always be there to guide and protect you.

Jaehaera Targaryen (oc)

Masterlist

Egg retrieval (obviously written as Jaehaera standing in for Rhaenyra’s role in this scene)

“This is an act of treason, war with your king.” Otto warned, an unabashedly large amount of smug gratification smacked across his face. Some might say he was enjoying this opportunity for chaos.

“Wonderful! Perhaps my brother will finally recognize how much of a cunt you are by the end of this and make me his hand.” The rogue prince retorts, tilting his head to the side with a snide expression. “It’d be the third smartest thing he’s ever done.”

A normal afternoon for the two. Most guards stood behind either knew what they would say. These antics weren’t uncommon for Daemon, and antagonizing the second prince was a fond hobby for Lord Hightower. The only difference was that the king himself had little patience for his brother, and more than per usual. Far too much was going on for him to be acting like a child, whining for his older brother’s attention. However, like any other thing, they didn’t see eye to eye.

You see, what started this all was the alert of Daemon stealing a dragon egg and holding up in Dragonstone, whilst Viserys was in a meeting. This didn’t help the matter at hand. He was too overwhelmed by the work to be done for his heir, dealing with the implications of his need to remarry, and his brother didn’t seem to give a damn about his duress at all. So of course, he sent Otto.

What Viserys didn’t know, was that his clever daughters had made a plan of their own.

Within the squabbles of the duo, a harsh screech protrudes the thin air. This only causing Caraxes to make a shrill cry if his own as his head darts in various directions, looking for his fellow kin.

Anyone in the kings landing, let alone that of the royal family, knew that sound. While most might not pay any mind, every dragon had a song of their own; their voices were each unique to them, just like the people they choose to serve. Oh, and how passionate filled this one is, it could not be misconstrued for another. It was that made for battle— to protect, to mourn, to destroy, to celebrate, to warn.

“Fucking hell.” Otto grumbled under his breath, head falling a little. All while Daemon grinned like a child high on sugar, practically bouncing in place.

A cascade of black emerged from the fog ridden sky, swallowing the fleet of soldiers on both sides with its shadow. The power of the dragons wings made men’s helmets fall, and their feet cling the the bricks beneath them. That was until they noticed how close the dragon wished to land.

Many, if not all, scurried back to escape the great weight of the dragon’s hide. Not to long after the beast settled on its feet, it’s rider slid down to its side.

Otto stood frozen in terror, eyes shut so tight they started to burn, and hands so shaky he could barely keep grip on the decree. There he was, between the front legs of a creature twenty times his size and could breath fire at will. He practically shit his pants when he felt a hand come down on his shoulder.

“It’s okay Lord Hightower. I promise Shkros is a teddy bear at heart.”

Prying his eyes open, Otto saw the Princess walking around him.

“Sorry your majesty, but I’d prefer a teddy bear with fur,” he warily glances upwards, met with strong dragon’s breath. “And one that couldn’t swallow me whole.”

Jaehaera halts her third loop around the stiff man, tilting her head to showcase her swirling thoughts. Gazing back at the noble and prideful man she knew as her fathers hand, she says, “How… precautious of you.”

Daemon couldn’t help but snort.

Swishing her body towards the Prince’s direction— hitting Otto with the blunt of her ponytail— Daemon almost jumped from joy when her eyes glanced his way. Sure, it was only a few mere seconds, but that was enough to satisfy him. He hadn’t seen her, nor Rhaenyra in almost a months time. Daemon was happy to just be in her presence.

It seemed as if every step she took was urged with more fervor, but once Jaehaera came within a foot of him, she rolled on the ball of her heels to veer right by him.

Dropping her head dramatically, she offers her hand to the woman standing beside Daemon— the lady he claimed to be his fiancé and baring his child. The woman was known amongst the majority as a prostitute— or rather as the men put more vulgarly: a whore. However, Daemon knew her as a confidant and occasional lover. She had a mind grander than most, and she heard and saw almost everything.

It was no wonder why her and Jaehaera got along so well.

“My Mysaria,” Jaehaera spoke lowly, making their interaction even more intimate by kissing the older woman’s knuckles until finally raising herself upright. “What has he promised you this time?”

Instead of answering the princess’s questions and blushing like a mad fool, as any other sane person would do, Mysaria sighed at the girl’s behavior. “You really don’t have to do that.”

“But you love it.”

“It is not proper in front of others.”

“And when have you cared of aristocratic manners?”

“I wouldn’t if this wasn’t quite literally a nearing battlefield,” her eyes wandered from the dragon’s, to the buffoons clad in iron and steel.

“Oh don’t mind them,” Jaehaera waves off, gaining back those clever eyes she admired. “They’ll be leaving soon anyhow—,”

“We will not!”

Fluttering her eyes closed, the princess grumbled out an exhale through her nose as she turned toward the rude Lord.

“You will leave when the egg has been retrieved yes?”

“Yes your highness,” Otto concurs with a wavering point. “But with all do respect—,”

“That won’t be much I suspect,” she muttered under her scoff, causing those around her chuckle in secrecy.

“The Prince does not seem to give any interest in doing so.”

Humming to herself, Jaehaera turns her conversation to Daemon. “Is that true? Am I truly going to have to fight you for it?”

“I see no need for us to fight Issa jaesa.”

My goddess

“I see no need for a fight at all, yet you seem desperate for one. Seven hells Daemon,” she rubs the back of her shoulders with opposite arms, almost as if she’d just been back from battle and was now aching from the aftermath. “If you just wanted attention all you need is ask. You ought to know how much Nyra has missed you. I’ve never seen her so tense or stressed and here you are, not doing a damn thing.”

Daemon was speechless. And it wasn’t because it was an appalling accusation, no. She was definitely right. It’s just usually she’d at least humor him for a little while. Things must really be disoriented in kings landing.

And without him there. How unruly.

“What do you need with the egg anyway? You know it meant something to father and Nyra.”

The Prince’s grip on the egg tightened. The thought of his niece being sad or in duress made his stomach twist, but his stubbornness held firm on his heart.

“I merely wish for my children to share a cradle with their dragon, just as Rhaenyra had.” Daemon stated with pinched brows and all.

He knew by the way her neck leaned back that she wasn’t buying into any of this. Sure, in some sentiment Jaehaera knew Daemon did want that for his child, if he had one.

Closing the space between them, Jaehaera rests her head on his chest. Oddly enough, the metal he wore calmed the thumping heat of her temple and soothed the impending headache.

“I know the infamous White Worm is not pregnant. It would put her at risk, and no matter how much you insist on acting like a prick,” she bends her neck slightly as Daemon’s hands creep up to her scalp. The heat radiating off him contrasts with the cool of his attire as his fingers message the dip of her skull. “We both know you’re just like Shkros.”

A smirk quirks at Daemon’s mouth as he holds her face back with his hands, resting his forehead against hers. “A big teddy bear.”

His laugh fans over Jaehaera’s face, quick and abrupt. “Sadly, I cannot compare to Shkros’ size.”

“Nor her sharp sense of perception either it would seem.” The swift girl quipped, sliding away like a child to show off her new possession.

“Why you sneaky—,” Daemon was flabbergasted. She’d swiped the damn egg.

“Thank you Dae,” she smiled widely, wicked with mischief and smugness. “I do enjoy these tender moments we share.”

Daemon leaned back, watching as one of the girls he prized skipped toward the king’s men and shooing at those who wished to touch the precious item. One would think his expression was even filled with pride.

Within around five feet from the man, Lord Hightower got a glimpse of the scaled egg in Princess Jaehaera’s hands. Oh, and how his mouth grit upon seeing her victorious grin. Her dragon crooned at the sight of her master and the egg, moving its wings to the side to let her pass by. This earned a quick pat on the leg from her rider, who beckoned over the soldiers holding the baby dragon’s cradle.

“I’ve taken care of everything Lord Hightower,” she stated whilst placing the ombré egg into the plate of coals steaming like a hot spring in summer. “You May return to my father now. I’m sure he’s missed your company dearly.”

Otto could have snapped, he truly could have. Although, as fate would have it, the mixed influence of a huffing dragon and the wrath of a king made his decision.

Bowing in an orderly fashion, Otto spoke quickly before leaving with heated feet and face. “Thank you your highness.”

Watching as the grouchy man left, she couldn’t help but giggle manically after he was but a speck. Jaehaera could hardly even stand from the amount of joy fizzing through her body, leaning against her more than willing dragon for support. “Gōntan ao ūndegon zȳhon laehurlion, Shkros?”

Did you see his face Shkros?

“Ao gīmigon ao jāhor sagon scolded syt bisa paktot? Issa lēkia doesn’t raqagon naejot sagon surprised.”

You know you will be scolded for this right? My brother doesn’t like to be surprised.

Jaehaera turned to Daemon with a new spark lighting her eyes. “Qilōni poghash ziry’s nykeā surprise?” She quips, quick to give Daemon a real hug. “Skorkydoso istan nyke?”

Who says it’s a surprise? ….How was I?

“Quite the actress,” he replied with admiration. “I almost believe you were cross with me.”

Scoffing, she broke away before he could wrap his arms around her, landing a good slap on his clad chest. “That’s because I am, what the hell were you thinking?”

“Well to be fair it would be a waste of an egg—,”

“Firstly, you belligerent idiot, that egg was meant for Rhaenyra’s brother. Have some fucking sympathy,” she said, hitting him with every syllable. “And second— Mysaria pregnant?? Are you fucking serious?”

“It’s the best I could come up with!”

“You’re getting old in mind along with body if that’s the case.” She joked, twirling some hair close to her face from Daemon’s slight accommodation to her impending height.

Infected by her playful nature, Daemon could no longer contain himself. I’m one quick motion he picked up the girl, causing her to squeal, and held her tight to body as he trudged in the direction of his castle.

“What the seven hells are you doing?!” Jaehaera sqirmed relentlessly, laughing much to her dismay.

“I demand a dual to prove my youthful spirit.” He retorted, ignoring the noises of an unpleased dragon behind him. Shkros would never hurt him, just like Caraxes would never harm her. Even if they were fighting tooth to nail.

“No one said anything of your spirit. Anyone could tell it’s one of adolescence.” She retorts before whistling.

“You little—,”

Next thing Daemon knew he was flat on his ass with a good weight planted on top of him. Shkros had swiped his feet clean off the floor with her tail. When the hell did she learn to do that?

“Before you ask, I taught her that last moon.” Jaehaera answered, reading his mind like it were a script.

Groaning from future bruises, Daemon yielded completely after noticing that she had him pinned. Thus allowing himself to enjoy the view. Her face pink and filled with pure delight. It would seem he wouldn’t have the heart to flip her over, if he could in the first place. From what he could feel, her hold had gotten better these past few months. Which only drove him down the rabbit hole.

“Who have you been training with?”

Jaehaera chuckled at Daemon’s obvious jealousy. “Sir Harwin has been entertaining me while you’ve been away.”

“Fucking Strong can’t hold a candle to me.” He growled with a pout mimicking a resemblance to a kitten. His hands eventually being let go after she leaned back on her calves.

“He’s better than Criston.”

“Everyone is better than that virgin.” Daemon snapped, squeezing her knees.

“Pfft not you apparently.”

“It was one time!”

Shrugging, she got off of him and offered a hand. “Doesn’t help your ego though, does it?” Rolling his eyes, he take her hand and refuses to let go.

“Must you always protest so childishly?”

“Must you always leave me?”

“I have to get to father before the cunt does.”

“So it is a surprise,” Daemon remarked smugly.

Copying his action, Jaehaera let her pupils go around until landing on a moving figure behind him. With no shame or regret, she pushed him aside and ran to the woman approaching them.

“Myseria! Oh how I’ve missed you.” She threw her arms around the woman’s waist, twirling her around effortlessly.

“How you two aren’t actually related I will never understand.” Myseria commented as her feet were finally placed onto the ground once again. Yet, not totally set free from the Princess’s grasp.

“Why do you say that darling,” Jaehaera purred tracing her hands up her arm and intertwining their fingers.

“You both are like clingy children.”

“I’m pretty sure children couldn’t fuck you as well—,”

Jaehaera openly gagged before shoving Daemon away from them. “Don’t speak about fucking her in front of me! Seven hells, I still can’t believe you let him bed you.”

“He pays well.” Myseria shrugged.

“As do I fuck,” Daemon spoke up, accentuating each word.

A breathy laugh leaves Jaehaera before staring back at the deranged man. “I’m sure you are, but ask Myseria who she would pick between the both of us.”

“No need.”

“Oh no Dae, is that defeat I’m hearing?”

“No it’s understanding. She would pick the same as I.”

Sighing, Jaehaera shook her head. “I think we all know you’d gladly do yourself if able.”

“Are you two quite done with this discussion?” Myseria interrupts, genuinely done with the two’s bantering. Her tone and attention directed to the Princess not to long after. A letter rested between her fingers, outstretched to Jaehaera to take. “I’ve talked to the moon’s servants.”

Nodding, the girl smiled gratefully at her friend and slide her hand into hers. That was enough time for Myseria to grip and pull Jaehaera’s hand to her lips. Kissing the red and slightly bullied knuckles, the woman whispered something that only the one feeling her lips could decipher. And no matter how much she wished to hide it, whatever had been said displeased Jaehaera. To Daemon that was clear as day.

“Thank you.” She said shortly with a small smile. Her eyes swayed to Daemon one last time, beckoning him for one last goodbye. To which he returned with a delicate hand behind her head, bringing her forehead to his.

“I will return soon after I prove myself once again.”

“I know.”

“Try to see me when you can.”

“I’ll see you after you meet with Lord Velaryon.”

Daemon and Jaehaera could stare at each other so intently, some would even conjure stories about them talking telepathically. That somehow their minds were linked, perhaps even their souls.

“Give Rhaenyra love for me?”

“I smother her plenty I promise,” Jaehaera breaks into a giggle, earning one from him as well. “But you will have to make it up to her yourself.”

Sighing through his nose, Daemon nods. “I know.”

Letting each other go was always difficult. For Daemon, he just didn’t wish to part from the thing that made him feel alive. Jaehaera inspired and fueled him with fire as war and adventure did. And Jaehaera��� she missed anyone she trusted, whom she must part from. The way she described it was that her soul, once finding another just as true and strong, would link to them and surge a bond so impenetrable that only a wielder of the two could cut the connection between them.

Leaping onto Shkros, the girl waved to her companions, knowing she would see them again very soon.

“Next time you can be theatrical!” She screamed at the two before taking flight, falling off the bridge with a twirling dragon ready for the journey home, where more chaos brewed.

Summary: Reader is promised to Jacerys, her cousin whom she can't stand. Thinking he is too snobby. When you have to share the bed, you set up a number of rules for Jacerys to uphold. Yet you are the one to break it. At diner jabs Jacerys at you by exposing your snuggling up to him. Something that is laughable to your brother Aemond. Ending with asking what a kiss is like.

Alicent handled you with fury. Holding you firm by the elbow, pulling so hard it didn’t matter to her if you could keep up or not. With haste she rushed through the corridors. She came to a stop near her quarters, throwing the door open. In a split second you saw your brother Aemond at the other end of the hallway.

Staring down at you. Something serious yet frightful in his expression. The glance was brief as you got shoved into the room. Alicent closing the door firm behind you. Her expression tense with shock. – “What kind of attitude was that?” – she called out in anger. Her expression calm yet full of violence.

“The one he deserves.” – you spoke back with frustration. A slit second later shot Alicent’s hand across your face. Leaving a throbbing pain in your cheek. In shock, you stared at your mother with trembling knees. She composed herself by pacing back and forth. – “I have told you numerous times Y/n. Your marriage to Jacerys Velaryon is final.”

“What about what I want?” – you dared to speak back. Already taking a deliberate step back so she couldn’t hit you again. Her expression darkened as you knew you should’ve kept your mouth quiet. Lowering your head, you presented her with a humble apology. – “You will marry Jacerys tomorrow.” – she made clear with a point. Alicent grabbed for the door, opening it once more.

“Don’t make me drag you.” – were her final words before leaving you with a slamming door. The sound making you jump out of your skin. As her footsteps died out, you sunk to the ground. Sobbing quietly in your hand. For all the people your mother could marry you off, she chose your cousin.

The one you found snobbish. There was not one bit you liked about him. Frightened you lifted your head up when the door opened once more. Your brother Aemond entering. His expression stern yet with remorse. – “Sister.” – he spoke nearing you.

He sunk to his knee, holding his hand out to you. – “Don’t.” – you told him, slapping his hand away. Aemond’s expression faltered to sorrow and pity. Taking a deep breath, you moved your hands over your face to your hair. Bringing yourself back to your senses. Without his help, you got back up with poise and grace.

You left the room, leaving Aemond behind. Blindly you followed the corridors leading up to your chambers. Looking at them with anew eyes. For you would never lay eyes on them again. After the marriage you would move over to the Black’s side. To be closer to your cousin… husband. This was the very last night in your room. A goodbye, you didn’t want to say. You wanted to stay here forever.

For now it felt like your mother has just given you to the enemies on a silver platter. A marriage forged between her and Rhaenyra in a way of peace settlement. You knew it was just a scam. To keep the good image up of peace whilst in the dark, shadows kept fighting with fire and blood. It was good for the land to see two sides united by one.

The morning quickly came as your chambers were swarmed with people. Dressing you for your marriage. Making sure you looked your best. Between the dressing and hair fixing, you grabbed for the wine. Needing the support of your good friend wine to get through this day. If your brother Aemond hadn’t banished all wine from your chambers, you would’ve been drunk.

“That is well enough sister.” – he would say, plucking the glass from you. You shot him a glare for the steal. – “Oh come on Aemond.” – Aegon responded in annoyance. It made you turn to your brother, sitting down in a chair with his feet up the table. – “What are you here for?” – you called out, wondering what your brothers were even doing here. 

“The spectacle.” – Aegon answered all smug. You turned to glare at Aemond. – “Precaution.” – he told you. Rolling with your eyes, you ignored them. Bothered that they have ripped you from pleasure.

So just a bit tipsy, you rolled up for your own wedding. Everyone was waiting inside as you stood waiting just outside. The heavy doors opened to the throne room as it made you suck in a breath. All eyes were turned on you.  Up front stood your cousin. Jacerys. Slowly turning round as you neared.

A smug smile on his face as it made you roll your eyes at him. You hated how he was gleaming at this. Taking great pleasure in it. Approaching the iron throne, you nearly tripped over your own feet as Jacerys reached out and grabbed you. – “Are you alright cousin?” – he asked with worry. You immediately elbowed his grip off you. – “Don’t touch me.” – you told him, keeping your voice down.

Straightening your posture, you kept your hands in front of you. Feeling a slight tug on your dress, you looked down. Seeing that your cousin was holding a bit of your dress between his fingers. As if he needed to keep you in place. Rolling your eyes again. Half of the speech you didn’t hear, too tipsy to even pay attention to it. Instead your eyes were fixated on the iron throne. The muttering dying out.

After the wedding, you rushed back down the throne room. – “Y/n.” – Jacerys would call out, upholding his smile to the others. With a bit annoyance, he began to hurry after you. Out of the throne room, you were already detangling your hair. Needing this spectacle of yourself off. – “Y/n.” – Jacerys called out catching up with you. He noticed the direction you were going as he took a hold of your elbow.

“Let me go!” – you insisted upon, pushing your arm back. He moved his hands up in defence. – “Look all I want to say is you are going in the wrong way.” – he said.  – “No I’m not, I’m going…” – you responded loud catching yourself make the mistake. Jacerys quirked his eyebrow up. You were heading for your quarters that no longer were yours.

“It’s this way Y/n.” – he reminded you offering you his arm. Rolling your eyes with a scoff, you brushed past him. Your cousin coming after you like an excited little dragon. Jacerys opened the door for you as you walked in. Hair completely detangled, no more braids and hairclips. Your eye fell on the single bed in the room. It suddenly felt real that you had to share the room and bed with him.

You rounded up to the bed as Jacerys followed you from the other side. – “Do you want to lay down?” – he questioned as you pulled the covers back. Taking a pillow or two with you. He frowned confused seeing you back away from the bed. – “No, just making my bed.” – you told him. Jacerys laughed confused. – “But… but your bed is right here?” – he gestured at the grand bed. You shook your head, throwing the pillows on the ground.

“I’m sleeping on the floor.” – you told him looking around for a blanket. Jacerys neared, pulling you to a stop by your arm. – “You can’t be serious about sleeping on the floor!” – he called out with concern. – “Oh but I am cousin.” – you responded pushing his hand off. You continued to search for a blanket to ease your new bed.

“Y/n, just lay in the bed.” – he’d tell you. – “The floor will be cold at night. It will get your muscles sore. You might even be frozen to death on the floor!” – he listed up in a panic. – “And you care because?” – you answered with a glare. – “I am… I am… your husband.” – he responded making you laugh loud.

Your laughing made him swallow ashamed. He didn’t like you ridiculing him. You threw a blanket on the floor, adjusting your new bed. – “Y/n please. Just lay in the bed. I…I command you to sleep in the bed!” – he ordered out, trying to sound like his uncle Daemon. It made you quirk your eyebrow up. – “You command me?” – you repeated mockingly. Jacerys swallowed nervously when you approached him.

“Please…” – he begged rubbing his hands nervously. You turned on your heel, coming to sit on the floor. Immediately you felt how hard and cold it was. Jacerys watched you closely. It took you about two minutes and a bit more nagging from him to finally give in. – “But there are a set of rules!” – you made clear throwing a pillow back in the bed. Jacerys nodded. – “Don’t touch me and don’t come near me!” – you threatened.

Jacerys held his hand up with a boyish snobby smile. It made you throw the second pillow at him. To your annoyance you crawled into the bed with him. Jacerys making sure there was enough space between the both of you. – “Is this good enough?” – he asked, looking at you. – “Do shut up.” – you said looking up to the ceiling. You didn’t want some small talk. Not with him.

“Goodnight Y/n.” – Jacerys said as your response was to roll over. Turning your back to him. Jacerys looked nervously at you, making sure he respected your boundaries. Soon his eyelids felt heavy as sleep took over. You had never been a restless sleeper. Somehow you were tonight. Perhaps it was the wine or the nightmares of your wedding.

Making your sleep anything but peaceful. Tossing and turning. You were used to sleep in an empty bed. Yet now there was an obstacle in your way. You had bumped against it a few times in your tossing and turning. Till you settled, bumping against a shoulder. Somehow in your dreams, your arms slapped over the person’s body. Making yourself snuggle closer to him. Hauntings fading away as the world became peaceful to you.

Your eyes opened to the sunlight. Body moving with the movement of breathing. The beating of a heart against your ear. Something felt off, yet you didn’t react to it yet. Needing a few more moments to try and understand what was different. The warm touch underneath you that felt like…skin. Eyes shot wide open, pushing your upper body up.

“Morning my wife.” – Jacerys said moving a hand behind his head. Annoyed you slapped your hand on his chest, rolling back to your side. – “What did I say!” – you told him, pulling the blanket with you as you stepped out of the bed.  Jacerys came leaning on his elbow, looking over at you. – “It was you who snuggled up to me. You didn’t follow your own boundaries.” – he told you.

Feeling suddenly flustered, you quickly turned around so he wouldn’t see. You disappeared behind the screen to get dressed, dropping the blanket by the screen. Fully dressed you re-appeared. – “Did you have a good night sleep Y/n?” – Jacerys asked looking all smug. – “Shut up.” – you bit at him annoyed. His response was to chuckle teasingly.

You waited for Jacerys to finish dressing up before going to diner. Jacerys wanted to hold your hand, but you moved it out of reach before he could take it. Nearly everyone was already seated as the two of you entered. Your brother Aegon raising his glass to you. – “How was the wedding night?” – he asked teasingly. Alicent shot him a glare for even wanting to discuss such a matter over diner.

Both of you remained silent, sitting down. – “Are you well sister?” – your sister asked sitting beside Aegon. You hummed quietly not wanting to react much to it. Aemond seemed to keep a close eye on you. Alicent and Rhaenyra giving each other a glance from across the table. Daemon rolling his eyes at the silence. Aegon moved closer, lowering his voice.

“How was it? Did you come?” – he asked his cousin as you dropped your knife in a deep protest. – “We kept it civil.” – Jacerys responded politely. Aegon’s expression horrified with disbelieve that he didn’t take advantage of it. – “What did you do then?” – Aemond questioned giving him the side-eye.

Jacerys cleared his throat softly. – “We just… snuggled.” – he responded as your knife clattered onto your plate in shock. It made the entire table look at you. You shot a glare at Aemond suddenly laughing. – “So sentimental suddenly sister.” – he laughed out. You tried kicking him from underneath the table, but you couldn’t reach him.

“Well I think it is rather sweet.” – Helaena said. Looking across the table, you saw the others smile warmly at you. Perhaps there was a bit of a glare with your mother, but it was subtle. – “I couldn’t wish for a better wedding night.” – Jacerys proclaimed leaning in closer to you. Leaving a quick kiss on your cheek that he stole before you could protest. Stunned by the sudden touch, you couldn’t help but get flustered. Quickly hiding it by looking down. Aemond kept laughing having the time of his life.

After diner returned Jacerys and you back to the chambers. You sat on the bed, arms crossed. Jacerys looked at you, sighing loud. – “Are you really that bothered?” – he questioned coming to stand in front of you. – “It was just a joke Y/n.” – he said tapping your forehead playfully.

Blinking surprised the sudden thought popped in your head. Perhaps it was connected to his touch or not, but you got pulled back to the moment he had kissed your cheek. Making you wonder more about it. – “What is a kiss like?” – you blurted out, making Jacerys quirk his eyebrow up. – “Well…I can’t explain it… I can only show you.” – he answered scratching the back of his head nervously.

“If you like of course…” – he finished. You slowly nodded. Jacerys took a deep breath, placing his hand against your cheek. It made you gasp soft, looking frantically around. – “It’s alright Y/n.” – he whispers to you whilst leaning down. Closing your eyes, he closed the gap between the two of you. Kissing you.

Helaena X Reader: A mothers pain

a/n: i want to give Helaena a hug so bad. My poor girl

Warnings: attempted suicide, talks of death, grief, crying, angst, no use of y/n, happy ending, not proofread.

Word count: 1,5K

It's an odd feeling, one she has not experienced willingly in a while. Her mother often tried to touch her. To pull her into her cold embrace but she always denied her. Today at the funeral she’d almost broken down. She’d tried to climb in her mothers lap like she did as a child. The thought seemed absurd now but it had made sense to her at that moment.

Your body is warm against her, your arms wrapped around her frame. She’d stopped crying a while ago, there were no tears left to shed. Instead she stared at the floor as you held her. You’d always been there for her. Whenever she needed you you were just a call away. It didn’t matter what her request was, you would find a way to give it to her.

You’d been the one who had brought in the bugs for her collection. You would sneak into the kitchen when she had pregnancy cravings in the middle of the night . And you’d been there when she’d given birth to the twins. It seemed natural that her body seeked out your touch but it surprised you all the same. 

She’d stumbled into the room followed by her maids. You were already there waiting for her. She had glanced up at you in silence. You waited for her to call your name before you moved closer. She seemed so frail, standing in the middle of the room without knowing what to do. You placed your hand on her arm, the contact causing her to look up at you. Her eyes looked dazed but she met your eye contact anyway. Slowly you moved closer to her, your arms wrapping around her. She didn’t move against you for a moment but then you felt her body begin to shake. You tighten your grip on her as she lets her body sag. You allowed her to pull you down to the floor with her. Her maids looked at you in questioning. You merely pointed to the door telling them to leave. 

Helena cried for hours and you held her the whole time. Your hand stroked her hair as she tried to regain her breathing. You could feel her breath skim over your neck as you held her. She called out your name in a whisper, causing you to look at her.

“Yes, your grace?”

“I’d like a bath.”

“Of course.”

It was already dark outside. You moved over to the bathtub, filling it with warm water. Helaena sat at the edge of the room, her hands wringing each other as she waited for you to return to her. Once you finished preparing her bath you made your way to the young queen. You placed your arm out to her, allowing her to use your body to steady herself. You walked over to the tub making sure Helaena was as close as possible.

“Do you want help with your clothes?”

Helaena nodded at your question, her eyes staring into the water. You moved gently, removing her dress and underclothes with great care. She was pliable, allowing you to move her around to make removing her clothing easier. You’d never seen her quite so out of it. The sight pained you a lot. You were used to seeing the joyful side of Helaena, not this sad shell that stood before you now. 

You help Helaena climb into the tub. The water splashed around as she slowly allowed her body to become covered. You grabbed a sponge, rubbing small circles on Helaena's pale skin.

“You can dunk your head in now, your Grace.”

You stood up, turning to grab something you’d forgotten. Helaena sunk into the tub, allowing the water to cover her upper side entirely. She remained under the water for a moment. It felt peaceful, the dulled sound made her feel sleepy and the warm water felt like a hug. Her hands gripped at the edge of the tub, forcing her body to continue under. The need to breathe began to overwhelm her but she pushed it down. She wanted to go to sleep. She wanted to sleep and not wake up. She closed her eyes allowing her thoughts to drift.

Helaena felt something strong grab at her body. She felt the water move around her, the sudden dull sound being replaced by your voice. Her head throbbed a bit. She opened her eyes, finding your fear stricken face. Your eyes were wide and you looked paler than normal. You tugged Helaenas body into your arms not caring about getting your clothes wet. When you’d turn around you’d expected to see Helaena sitting in the tub with her head above water. Instead you’d find her knees sticking out of the water, her hand gripping at the edge of the bathtub until her knuckles had turned white. You’d acted on instinct, immediately reaching for her. 

Helaena shivered against you. You wrapped a cloth around her body, your hands tugging her as close as possible. Helaena could hear your heartbeat. It was beating quite fast. She could feel your hands shake as you dried her off. 

“I’m tired.”

You took a breath in, trying to calm yourself. You’d almost watched Heleana commit suicide, your mind was having a hard time forgetting that. But you had a job to do.

“Let's get you to bed.”

Once Helaena was completely dry you helped her put on her nightgown and had guided her over to bed. You tugged the covers up allowing her to climb in. Helaena watched you pull the sheets on top of her, shielding her body from the cold. In this light you seemed like you were glowing. You looked like an angel. Helaena placed her hand on yours causing you to look at her. You gave her a small smile.

“Everything alright?”

“I’m sorry I frightened you. I just wanted the pain to go away.”

She sounded like a little kid. Your heart hurt as you took in the pureness of her soul. She was a grieving mother who had been through far too much pain for someone so young. You pushed her hair out of her face before, moving to wrap your hand around hers.

“Just promise you won't do that again.”

“I promise.”

You let out a breath giving Helaena one last smile before moving to leave the room. You’d almost made it out the door when she called out your name. You turned sound, your eyes finding Helaenas frame. She was sitting on the bed, her sheets pooled around her waist.

“Yes you grace?”

“Lay with me?”

“I’m not sure King Aegon would-”

“He doesn't come here. He hasn’t slept here since….”

She didn’t need to say it, you knew what she meant. You closed the door, making your way back to the bed. You climbed on the opposite side, settling on top of the sheets. Helaena laid down again, looking at you.

“You’ll be cold.”

She moved her hand so that she could lift the sheets for you. You knew you shouldn’t risk getting the bed dirty but you couldn’t deny the queen's wishes. You lifted your body, tugging the sheets from beneath you. You climbed under the sheets. You could feel the heat radiating from Helaenas body. She inched herself closer to you, moving so that she could rest her head in your chest.

“Tell me a story.”

“Okay. There once was a little girl who lived in a castle.”

“Was she a princess?”

“No, she was a server girl. She worked in the kitchen. And then one day she found a young princess playing in the garden. She asked the princess what she was doing there.”

“What did the princess say?”

“She said she was looking for caterpillars. The server girl told the princess that she’d get in trouble if her mother, the queen, caught her outside. She told the princess to go back inside and that she would look for the caterpillars herself. So the princess went back into her room and waited for the server girl.”

Helena had grown silent. You wondered if she’d fallen asleep.

“Then what happened?”

“Well, the server girl found the caterpillars but she was caught on the way to the princesses room. She was going to be punished for walking around the castle in places she wasn’t supposed to but before they could take her away the princess came to her rescue.”

“What a brave princess.”

You smiled at Heleana, your hand stroking her hair.

“Yes she was.”

“What happened to the server girl?”

“Well, the princess spoke so well about her that they gave her a promotion. She became the princess's handmaiden.”

“And her friend.”

You laughed at Helaena's comment, realizing she’d figured out you were telling her the story of the two of you. 

“Yes and her friend.”

Helena looked up at you, a small smile appearing on her face.

“Thank you for the story. Will you stay until I fall asleep?”

“Of course.”

Helena had become tormented by dreams of her son. She would relive the moment of his death over and over, not managing to sleep for longer than a couple hours. Tonight however she fell asleep in your arms. Feeling safer than she had in days.
