You were finishing putting own your ruby earrings when you heard the door opened to your chamber, you turned and smile seeing your baby boy in the arms of your husband. The king walked further in the room walking over to you, he planted a kiss on your lips before you moved to grabbing your son. You made silly faces at him making the little boy coo, viserys stood behind you watching as you played with your son.

"Are you ready for today." He asked sitting at the end of the bed.

"Yes, I am. How about you my love are you ready to waste an afternoon with these boring people." Viserys chuckled lowly as you talked to your son in a baby voice.

"Those people are our friends." You bounced your two year old in your arms gently as you turned to viserys.

"No, they're not. They're your friends they despise me...yes they do...they despise your mommy." You smiled looking at Aegon as he giggle not understanding what his mother was saying to him.

"Are you going talk like that the whole time." He asked.

"If I have to." She song before giving aegon a big kiss on the cheek.

"Where were you earlier you missed daemon's welcoming ceremony." You didn't look at your husband as you rubbed your sons back.

"Oh, I had to feed helaena. She was getting little fussy so i had to put her to bed." The first part was true you usually don't lie to your husband, but when it came to daemon it seemed like a natural thing to do.

"He asked for you." You mentally sigh as you walked over to the cradle to look and see your baby girl still sound asleep.

"Hmmm." Viserys shook his head before getting up and coming up next to her.

"How long will you go without speaking to him, he was once your dear friend and now you treat him as if he is a stranger." He was also my lover you thought, viserys didn't know about that little detail nobody did.

"He was the one who stopped talking to me, husband. Not the other way around." He sighed.

"True, but you know how my brother can be." You hummed nodded your head knowing how petty and childish he can be when he don't get his way.

"We should get going don't want our subject to wait." You said ending the conversation, he nodded before grabbing aegon from your arms as you went to get helaena.

You both hold hands walking out of your shared chambers, as you walk in silence only sounds of the guards heavy footsteps following made your mind go to Daemon. The man who captured your heart and held it in a chest for nobody to take, he was your bestfriend in ever sense of the word he was always by your side and always taking you to extravagant places. You believed when you two were mere teens that he was going going ask your brother for your hand in marriage, and you waited like a fool for him to see more than just a secret lover. But, it never came even when you got married to your first husband he didn't look jealous or angry, he looked calmed as if he knew he had nothing to worry about because you were his but he wasn't yours.

You blinked coming back to reality as the bright sun beamed down on you, before you and your husband could take a step he was pulled away with aegon still in his arms by lords. He gave you an apologic look as you gave him a small smile watching him walk away following by the others, your eyes scanned for your daughter, Bhaera, only to catch a scene that made your blood boil and stomach turn. Daemon stood across Rhaenyra near the tree as he look alluring at her as he touch the necklace he gave long ago, the way she looked back at him made your heart break as she looked at him with admiration and love just like you use to do.
