The Fire Wife || The Dance of Dragons

The New Heir

Rhyaella looks around as Rhaenyra runs into her Aunt's rooms and straight into her arms. Rhyaella steps back shocked before looking down at Rhaenyra who has silent tears falling down her face.

'What is it Rhaenyra?'

'Father has named me the heir'

'But my husband is the heir?'

'Father is going to denouced Daemon and re-name me the heir to the Iron throne. What am I going to do Aunt?'

'You will do what you think is right, Rhaenyra. That is what you do, it is what you have always done'

'Will you be by my side? Will you support me?'

'I will always support you, you are one of my daughters, no matter who gave birth to you'

Rhaenyra nods before hugging Rhyaella tighter as she sobs into her chest. Rhyaella smooths back her hair as she slightly worries on what Daemon is going to do about beind denounced as heir to the Iron Throne.

Daemon walks with his family to the dragon keep. Rhaegar, Aemond, Helaena and Aegon look at their parents confused.

'Ride your dragons to Dragonstone, my children'

'Daemon-'

'Not now Rhyaella' Daemon cuts his wife off. Their children look at their mother who looks at Daemon before looking at their children and nods. Slowly their children mount their dragons and fly towards Dragonstone. 

When they are gone Rhyaella looks at Daemon who looks back at her before kissing her deeply. Rhyaella looks at Daemon confused only to see he has tears in his eyes.

'Daemon...'

'Come with us, please'

'I will follow you anywhere, my love'

Daemon smiles relieved before climbing with Rhyaella onto his dragon Fire Worm before flying after their children. Rhyaella looks back over her shoulder and whistles to her dragon Drogon who flys after them.
