Jon's POV
   
     Dear my sweet boy,
If you're reading this I didn't make it. I have heard your father didn't make it to the trident, I don't know if he is alive or not. I pray that it's a lie.  My brother Ned is going to take good care of you my little prince. I'm going to leave a letter for your dad Incase he comes for us and we're not here.
     I told Ned to tell you the truth my your 11th name day. You deserve to know the truth and that you're a prince. Maybe you can go find your other family, Daenerys and Viserys. I heard sweet Rhaella didn't make it and neither did your brother Aegon, sister Rhaenys and sweet Elia. I don't know why Jaime didn't protect them like he promised Rhaegar.
      No one can know the truth about you yet. Robert will kill you. He's always been obsessed with me. I love your father so much and our love caused a war which cause thousands to die. Aerys made everything worse. His madness did not help the situation. If anything he escalated it. We sent letters to Ned so he would know the truth so this madness can stop.
     Your father was going to overthrow Aerys but things don't always go as planned my dragonwolf. I have hope you'll find your other family too. I believe that if Aerys wasn't the way he was Rhaella would've survived and maybe war could've been avoided.
     I never loved Robert, he is a man whore who thought he loved me but was obsessed with me or maybe the idea of me. I know someone intercepted the letters to cause this war. Maybe I would survive too if I had more Midwives here to help but I am weak.
      I hope my Dragon is alive but if not I have his harp and my wedding dress, Darksister and our marriage cloak. I will always be watching over you my love. You will be king one day always remember you are so special.
      We wanted to name you Jaehaerys so you'll have a strong name. Your uncle will tell you the truth when you turn 11. I hope he helps you repair the Targaryen name.
It's strange but some part of me believes that Rhaella new baby Daenerys will help. I've had dreams of it. I need you to know you'll never be alone and know I'm always watching over you my love, my sweet Dragonwolf. 
    With all my love,
             Princess Lyanna Targaryen.

       I asked Dany to be with me while I read this in my room on the boat

    I asked Dany to be with me while I read this in my room on the boat. I started sobbing. My father comes in and hugs me. "I haven't read my letter yet but I see you read yours. Are you okay?" I just hug him and cry. Dany leaves us alone and I let Rhaegar read the letter. I see tears pouring down his face.
      I look at him "why didn't my uncle tell me? Why didn't he care? Why did he let everyone hate you and have everyone treat me so badly? Did he resent me? I grew up in a lie."
Rhaegar sighs, "I think Ned was confused and didn't know what to do. Maybe it would've caused suspicion but Lyanna asked him to tell you on your 11 nameday but he didn't. I know you just turned 16 and he still didn't tell you. I do know if Lyanna was here she would've kicked his ass." *Snickering
      "Especially if she knew he was was sending you to the wall and not helping you. Ned isn't a bad guy, he is honorable. You're my son and I will never abandon you, I'm sorry I didn't find you sooner." I look at him "well, you're here now." Before I could continue he says "So is Daenerys, you two probably would've ended up married. I can see the way you look at each other. Lyanna told me she used to dream of you and a silver haired girl.
     I feel my cheeks getting red and Rhaegar grins. "It's not just Targaryens who married into their own family. But the Targaryens are special they are drawn to each other. It's the dragon blood."
      "I don't feel weird or anything, she's really special. After you read your letter if it's not to inappropriate I would love to read it too." I say. He smiles "Of course I'm going to go eat then read it. I'll send Dany in."

Dany's POV

    I walk into Jon's room and he smiles and me, I feel my cheeks get red. " So should I call you Jon or Jaehaerys?" He laughs "well I'm comfortable with Jon you can call me it in private and in public I'll be Jaehaerys." I nod.
      "Jon, I don't know how to explain this but I feel some sort or connection towards you. I think I've seen you in my dreams before. Maybe I'm just cra-" he stops me with his lips crashing against mine.
     He rests his forehead against mine. "I've dreamt of you too, and we *cough did a lot in some of my dreams" I giggle "Trust me those were the best dreams." I clear my throat. I am nervous to ask. "You're not leaving any girls behind are you?" He shakes his head "No"
     "Are they any guys in Meereen waiting for you?" I sigh "There is a man who thinks he loves me but I have no love for him. I want you and only you. He might show his jealousy but Rhaegar will beat him down." We start kissing again.
      I moan into his mouth "I'm glad we found each other finally. I can't wait for you to meet my dragons, Viserion is Rhaegar's he's named after Viserys, Drogon is mine after the husband I was forced to marry, he'll be better than him. Rhaegal has no rider but I'm sure you'll bond with him."
     He laughs "okay I trust you, hopefully ghost gets along worth everyone. He's very protective. He'll keep you safe too." I smile so wide. "Stay with me tonight?" I ask. He kisses me hard. "Definitely yes, now let's go eat."
