    Summary

    Rhaenyra Targaryen has been disinherited - some will say she should have seen it coming, some will say that it is just the natural order of things restored. Yet it is insulting to be put aside in favour of an infant - and Rhaenyra does not intend to let it slide.

    If she cannot have her crown, she will ensure Otto Hightower's grandchild cannot either - she would rather see a usurper conquer Westeros than forget this slight. The plan is simple: help him take the capital and bargain for her freedom, without the pressure to marry or produce heirs for some arrogant lord.

    But what if her gamble takes an unexpected turn, and she still finds herself with a crown on her head - a consort, but a Queen nonetheless? And has she won or has she lost - can traitors ever win?

    Summary

    For the ten years that Daemon has been king, he never ceased to hunt his enemies down.

    Now he has found them, and even more - his darling niece, in the clothes of a servant. He thought that she was dead, murdered at the same time as her father.

    The fairest of them all, I used to call you.

    Yet his love feels like a curse, for he isn't the savior, in her narrative.

    He’s the villain.

     

    A fairytale coded love story where Rhaenyra believes Daemon murdered her father - but the man she learns to know is nothing like the monster she has feared.

    Summary

    Twenty years ago, Rhaenyra was tricked, captured by her uncle, and chosen to be his bride on the hellish island he took for himself - or so King Viserys claimed.

    Half of the year there as his wife, half of the year in Westeros, the Old King decided when she was found - the only way to content a man bound to her by blood, and a king without an heir.

    Yet Daemon grows weary of sharing his niece, for this deal needs to come to an end.

    Summary

    In the tenth year of the reign of King Viserys I, a strange malady befell both his queen and his daughter. Queen Aemma Arryn was the first to sicken, seized by a fever so violent that her ladies feared she would be lost before dawn. Before a day had passed the princess was stricken by the very same heat.

    For three days and three nights the court was cloaked in terror. The king kept vigil beside his wife and child in turn, unwilling to leave either chamber for long, while the maesters whispered of humors and contagion but found no sure cure. Prayers were spoken at every hour, and more than one lord muttered that House Targaryen’s line stood on the edge of ruin.

    Yet as suddenly as it had come upon them, the fever broke. On the morning of the fourth day, Queen Aemma called for water, and not long after Princess Rhaenyra asked for food. Both rose from their beds as if nothing at all had passed between life and death, pale but unharmed, as though the sickness had been no more than a shadow fleeting across their shared blood.
