Burn Together ❖ Daemon Targaryen

Chapter 20

The past 9 years had been nothing short of bliss for Daemon and Rhaellanne and their family on Dragonstone. Their son Baelor had been joined by a younger sister, Lyanna, when he was one and then came a set of twins 3 years ago, Eleana and Vaelon. The family of six  were happy together, and their dragons were thriving too

Cannibal and Silverwing had appeared to have mated and Silverwing produced a large group of eggs, and Dreamfyre also produced some that she seemed to have been carrying for a while. Dragons were the focal point of the family, and they spent all of their efforts into making their lives good.

Two of those eggs had been put in the cribs of Eleana and Vaelon when they were born, and Eleana's had hatched, but the baby dragon was being cared for in the dragon pit and was still unnamed. Rhaellanne had denied the idea of the older dragons living in the dragon pit and allowed them to roam freely, and her role as dragon ruler had well and truly been fulfilled. 

Baelor had claimed Silverwing when he was only seven, and Lyanna was now riding one of Cannibal and Silverwing's babies, who she named Dracul. What became a large source of amusement for them though was the fact that both of their dragons were bigger than Caraxes, which meant Daemon now had the smallest dragon of his family

It had surprised everyone how quick Dracul had grown, but he was the offspring of the Cannibal after all, which was clear by his night-black scales.

Now that those two had claimed their dragons, the four of them were often found flying around Blackwater Bay, and today was no exception. Cannibal was by far the largest and most powerful out of them and could easily beat any of them in a race, and Rhaellanne enjoyed knowing that

Dracul and Silverwing twirled around Caraxes, and Daemon grinned as his children called him slow, and to shut them up, he suddenly dived downwards and then pulled straight back up and shot into the air, blowing past Cannibal

Rhaellanne laughed as her husband flew above her, and he then steered Caraxes down until they were flying side-by-side

"īlva riñar pendagon iksan paez [Our children think I'm slow]" he called over

"Qilōni gaomagon ao pendagon ivestretan zirȳ naejot ivestragon bona? [who do you think told them to say that?]" grinned Rhaellanne

Daemon scoffed and placed his hand on his heart in mock hurt. "Nāpāstre [traitor]"

Rhaellanne giggled. "Iksin nyke iā nāpāstre lo iksan paktot? [Am i a traitor if I am right?]" 

"Iksā pirta [You're wrong]" He said

Rhaellanne nodded sarcastically and turned forwads "Jikagon! [Go!]" 

Cannibal roared loudly, a sound which brought fear to everyone who heard it, but it only exhilarated Rhaellanne as her dragon began to pump his massive wings faster, carrying Rhaellanne quickly forwards and she smirked over her shoulder as she disappeared into the distance

The four of them returned to Dragonstone after a while and when they walked back inside, Baelor and Lyanna were still arguing about who won their smaller race

"Ñuha zaldrīzoti [my dragons]" chuckled Daemon "You will have to beat us first"

"You aren't a real dragon rider, kepa [father]" said Baelor cheekily and Daemon scoffed in mock offence 

Beside him, his younger sister nodded avidly. "You use a saddle! We ride on bare dragon back!" exclaimed Lyanna

"They are right, valzȳrys [husband]" shrugged Rhaellanne

"Well then," he chuckled "You two can argue all day if you want, but we all know that your mother beats all of us any day"

He beamed at his wife, who smiled. "Thank you, ñuha jorrāelagon [my love]"
