Book I
A Targaryen Princess and a Strong Lord meet one day and are completely awed by each other but find that there are challenges in the way before they can just be together
RAEWYN WOKE UP FROM A DREAM that could only be explained as strange, she sat up and she saw Amaia setting up breakfast. "Good morrow, Amaia," she greeted her handmaiden.
"Good morrow, Princess," Amaia greeted back, "how did you sleep?"
"Very well actually," Raewyn stood up as she walked over to the table picking up a couple of grapes and eating them, "mmm, what is that?"
There was a box on the table, wrapped in a red and black ribbon...
"Oh, it was at your door just an hour ago with a knock but no one to deliver it," Amaia explains.
Raewyn just nods, "okay..." She walks over to the box, carefully removing the ribbon before opening the box. "Whoa."
"That's beautiful."

Raewyn held the necklace up in the light, it was a dragon pendant with red jewels... "It really is, isn't it?" she agrees.
"Princess, you do realize what this means?" Amaia asked her.

Amaia helped her put on the necklace as Raewyn smiles looking down at it, "it's very beautiful, but how can you be sure it's from him?"
"You know there is only one way to find out for sure," she says with a smile.
"I don't know, Amaia..."
"Don't make me drag you to your sister for her support because she will agree with me," Amaia said with a knowing smile.
Raewyn just nods, "fine, you know what? Actually, going to see my sister," she straightened up, "is a wondrous idea," she then looked down at her nightgown, "probably should get dressed, right?"
"Probably, princess," Amaia says with a smile.
Raewyn looked through her trunk before finding the perfect gown to go with the necklace:
