Dragon's Oracle // Daemon Targaryen

38. New happiness

Tired after whole day and the party, she decided to call it a night. Before getting to her room, she decided to peak into her children room. Reaching the door, aelana slowly open the door, smiling when she saw the view.

Baelyx, Maerys, and Visenya were spread on their beds while Valeri was sitting on the sofa with Aenya laid over her. Smiling she walked in and toward Aenya. Thankfully Aenya was deep sleeper, Aelana pick her up from valeri, whose eyes blinked opened upon the movement.

Aelana smiled at the woman and took Aenya to the bed. She laid down Aenya down on the bed between viserra and maerys, while Maerys slept like a rock, viserra immediately turned and put her leg on her little sister body cuddling her. Aelana move the blanket and spread it over all children. Wanting to kiss them all but knowing that it will wake up two of them, Maerys and baelyx who unlike her sister were light sleeper.

Taking a one last look at them, Aelana turned to look at half asleep valeri who immediately smiled at her back. Aelana pick up another shawl from the bed and walked toward valeri, opening it she spread it on valeri body.

"Go to sleep here" Even though Aelana always allowed her, valeri always slept in servant quarter but it was late and she was sleepy. Giving a last look at all of them, aelana walked out of their room and toward her own.

It was not far, just a corridor away, she turned the corridor, thought rushing in her heads about daemon and Vaera. if given proposal would he marry her. Would he not wait for her. Maybe three weeks were truly enough to mourn for a man she was married to 10 years for.

A man whose children she bore. A loyal and loving man. Maybe three weeks were enough, Maybe she was over mourning the man. Maybe she should stop mourning her dead husband because daemon lost his wife too.

She didnt realized that she had reached her room, but not wanting to go inside and feel suffocated, aelana look to her right where the balcony look over the gardens. Lifting her dress and wanting fresh cool air, aelana stepped toward the balcony, resting her arm over it.

Her eyes didnt wander down, not even for a second for she was looking at the sky, closing her eyes she breath in air. mind-linking her dragon. she call him out in high valyrian.

'cannibal'

'Yes rider'

'how was your day darling?' aelana tried to make a conversation knowing very well she was annoying him

'good'

'are you asleep cannibal?' she asked a very stupid question and smirked when he replied annoyed.

'yes'

'am i annoying you?'

'obviously' (in snape voice)

'what are you doing then?'

'plotting'

'plotting? what can a dragon plot?'

'murder'

Aelana tried her best to choke in her laugh, her eyes still closed and feel the cold win on her face.

'whose murder cannibal'

'mine'

'your own? thats suicide'

'yes'

'am i that bad of a rider'

'yes'

'good night cannibal'

'yes'

aelana stayed quiet, their mind-link still established she asked after a while

'cannibal do you-' before her thought was completed, she felt his dragon shut down their mind link and she only smiled at it, shaking her head at his behaviour. Her moment of peace was disturbed when her ears picked up a small giggle.
