Aemond and Criston shared a look as she stumbled her way up and through the hallway. He asked the knight to go ahead without him and followed behind lady Belgrave. Although he didn't know her very well he had been taught the manners of a prince. He made sure she went into her room even going as far as opening the door of her room which she once again didn't notice and closed it behind him.

His lips quirked up in a smirk as he thought of the many ways he could use this to possibly tease her sometime in the future.

Aurora waited for Bayla to join her in her room and help her out of her dragon smelling clothes, helping her bathe and then the young woman threw herself onto the bed face down. As soon as he face hit the pillows she was out cold.

"AHHHHHH!" the maids and cooks in King's Landing all jumped up in the kitchen as a scream resounded throughout the halls first thing in the morning.

In her room Aurora was having a mental breakdown. She had counted the days wrong. The counsel to choose the heir to the Lord of the Tides Throne was in a week or less. She needed to get the king's health better by at least a little bit so he would support Lucerys as the heir sooner.

Aurora made her way to the king's chambers. The door was open and the maesters had undressed his wounds to see the progress. This time Alicent was in the room.
With one look from the king the maesters left the two women with the king alone.

"How are you feeling now your highness?" Aurora immediately set to work, determined to alleviate his pain not for his own good but for her plans to go through as she had planned them.

She had also started making the maesters and doctors wear a special type of gloves made out of a sort of seaweed that once dried was easy to sew. Her father had shipped several of them to King's Landing the day before Aurora had gone to treat Corlys.

"Much better now Aurora" the king let her manoeuvre his arm up as she inspected the wounds "And I told you to call me Viserys. It makes it far easier and I already have all my titles shouted all over the place when I merely enter a room. It gets tiring"

"Al right then Viserys" Aurora relented. She could feel the other woman's eyes on her as she lathered some creams on the wounds "Your wounds are healing up very nicely. They were quite bad so it might take a bit longer than initially expected but most of the infections are gone"

"Thank you Aurora, truly" the king was still weak and he would need a lot of rest to help his body heal.

"Have you avoided seating on the throne like I asked you to" she asked him as Alicent handed her husband his shirt and helped him put it on.

"I've tried my hardest to keep him away from it as he recuperates" the woman chimed in.

"Good" Aurora knew Alicent wasn't a completely good person but she truly did care for the older man and had remained faithful despite it being forced on her.

"You are terribly talented lady Belgrave" the queen continued "Most people your age aren't as astute as you. You are indeed the genius everyone makes you out to be"

"Thank you your highness" she smiled slightly.

Aurora bowed her head giving the older woman some remedies for her to give the king before he laid down to rest and exited the room.
