"I know you will do well." Viserys declared. "You make me proud." Davina hugged him gently as she let out a long breath.
"I'm fucking your wife." Davina whispered.
"I know." Viserys agreed.
"Oh, great. Glad we got that out of the way." Davina offered kissing his cheek.
"I couldnt make her happy. I'm glad you do." He whispered back.
Davina looked to Alicent and her kids, they were still clapping. SHe looked to Tommen and his face was priceless then she caught the glares Rhaenyra and Daemon were throwing her way but nothing could bring her mood down. She was going to be the queen.
"Davina," Viserys whispered as they got back to his chambers.
"No take backs." Davina teased.
"I promised father and grandsire." Viserys told her through a choked breath and Davina's smile faltered as she sat beside him.
"What?"
"I promised father and grandsire that I would... that I would look out for you. That I would find you a good match." Viserys remarked.
"What? No... what?" Davina couldnt process.
"I... when mother died father begged me to find a match for you. Someone that wasnt Daemon." Viserys remarked.
"He did?"
"He didnt want your heart to be broken Dav." Viserys admitted and she could tell he was carrying this around for a long while. The grief of it all. Her lip trembled as she waited for him to go on. "Dav, I promised them..." Viserys coughed out.
"What did dad ask of you?"

"I have set a match for Davina." Baelon had remarked. Viserys stared back at him.
Daemon and Davina were inseparable, doted on each other. Viserys didnt see them being torn apart.
"House Lannister." Baelon declared.
"Father, Davina loves Daemon." Viserys corrected. "Match them, they will be-"
"We form unions to strength the family." Baelon corrected.
"Mom was your sister." Viserys countered.
"Viserys. It is set. Please I just want Davina married to a good house a good man. Please promise me when I'm gone you will do this." Baelon begged.
"Father-"
"Viserys, promise me you will secure a match for Davina. A good house, a strong family. Strengthen the unions. She is a lovely young lady, she needs to be wed, they both do. Not to each other."
"Father if you would just-"
"Viserys. Not Daemon."
Baelon didnt give a reason, not a good one viserys liked. But how was Baelon supposed to say he was dying of a broken heart? He had loved his little sister all his life and she was ripped away from him. He was trying to spare Davina and Daemon that same heartbreak. Being that close to someone, being with them their whole life, a twins connection, he just wanted them to be happy. They would find happiness in others. He didnt want them to die of a broken heart as it felt he was dying right now.
"Promise me Viserys, promise me." Baelon begged.
"Father-"
"Viserys, promise me. Promise me, promise me, promise me..." Baelon begged.
