Forever and Always // Aemond Targaryen // Daemon Targaryen

11. Infuriating

Tied Together With a smile// Aegon Targaryen out now!

Aemond searched for Beka. He searched high and low. He went back to the place she had been staying at but she wasnt there anymore.

It was infuriating.

He loved her. He was a man now and he wanted her. He thought she wanted him. But Aegon had claimed he fucked her that she begged for him and mother had caught them. That was why she left.

Aemond didnt want to believe it. But then again why else would mother send her away. Why wouldnt she come back?

"Looking for your girlfriend ?" Aegon taunted. "I bet you are. She was a babe. Too bad you will never get a taste of her cunt as I have. She sucked my cock before hand." Aegon went on. "Moaning for me. I can take you back to the silk streets since you chickened out and ran away in tears." Aegon recalled.

Compulsion only lasted for so long. It wasn't a sure fire solution to problems. But a temporary solution.

Aemond sighed picking back up his book as Aegon was already drunk it seemed before noon. Aemond just wanted to see Beka but he was confident that his mother scared her away.

It only made him train harder though in the courtyard.

"Quick on your feet." Criston declared. Aemond gave a quick jab to his opponent and he staggered back. "Good Aemond very good."

"Go for his legs."

Aemond knew that voice but he had to stay focused. Aemond couldnt hide his smile though as he kicked his opponents legs out from under him.

"Wooooh!" Beka hooted clapping and Aemond spun around smiling back at her. "That was amazing!"

"Beka you're back!" Aemond exclaimed running to her. Beka hugged him and felt his heartbeat against her chest.

"I am and I come bearing a gift well not with me right now not in this outfit where would I put it?" Beka mused. "But I have a gift for you for your name day." Beka informed him.

"My name days-"

"Tomorrow I know." Beka agreed. "But I assured you had plans with your family so Im stealing you today."

"You can steal me every day for the rest of my life." Aemond countered.

"Excellent-"

"My lady you cant-" criston began.

"Ser criston, please. I know Beka I love Beka." Aemond blurted out before he could stop himself. His face flushed with color as he sheepishly looked to Beka but she wrapped her arm tighter around her.

"Im sorry my prince but I cant allow-" criston started again.

"I can and I will. If anyone asks Aemond is safe." Beka assured and Criston nodded distantly. "Ready Aemond?"

"Ready." Aemond agreed as she leaned into him leading him off.

"You got tall." Beka remarked.

"Youve been gone a while Beka." Aemond countered.

"Im sorry about that. I thought it was for the best." Beka offered.

"It wasnt." Aemond corrected. "I missed you. I was prepared for you to be living down the hall from me and then you were just gone."

"I am sorry Aemond." Beka whispered.

"Was it Aegon?"

"Was what Aegon?" Beka countered

"Did he do something? Did he hurt you?" Aemond questioned.

"I understand why you dont like him more and more." Beka offered.

"What did he do?"

"Nothing I cant handle." Beka assured.

"Did he-" Aemond began but Beka turned him to face her and kissed him.

"Did you want to finish that question?" Beka questioned as her arms draped around his shoulders. Aemond shook his head kissing her again. "Then lets get Vhagar and get going."

"Where are we going?" Aemond countered.

"Trust me." Beka whispered kissing him again.

"Arent you cold?" Aemond questioned as they flew north. She supposed that she should be cold. But being a vampire she didnt have that problem.

"A little." Beka offered "but im used to the cold."

"So this is home?" Aemond questioned wrapping his cloak around her like a gentleman. Beka leaned back into him as they flew lower.

"Karhold." Beka agreed. "I havent been here in ages but... I wanted to show you."

Aemond landed and slid down he reached up for as she slid into his arms.

"Thank you." Beka coed but saw him shiver in the cold. She pulled his cloak off.

"You need it." Aemond protested.

"Then stay close to me." Beka negotiated. "This is home." Beka declared pushing up the door of the little house.

"It looks like there was a fire here." Aemond remarked.

"There was. I rebuilt." Beka told him. Her and Elijah after everything. Their father and mother burned everything and moved. Years later Beka came back to what was once theirs and started rebuilding. Elijah found her. They all came back together. Undead and united. A safe haven for them if they ever needed a home.

"Your family... did they..." aemond stopped himself.

"Something like that. Yeah." Beka agreed. "Come on. I will give you a tour!" 

Beka made a fire and the flickering light filled the house. Aemond smiled softly looking around. He touched the windchime in the window the blades mounted on the wall a necklace Beka had long since forgotten about. She watched Aemond touch the valyrian steel necklace and it made her heart ache at the memory.
