Meanwhile in king's landing

"Our daughter Visenya has been missing for an extended period of time, but you have done little to find her!" She yelled at the King in a furious tone. "What do you wanting me to do, Alicent?" He yelled back. "With Rhaenyra's departing, I have plenty enough to worry about. All of my guards are on the lookout for her. What else am I supposed to do?" He asked with some annoyance. "Why am I not shocked that Rhaenyra is your concern. Our thirteen-year-old daughter is missing! Do you not worry about that? She may have been taken, raped or killed!" The Queen yelled once more, feeling her fury overwhelming her.

The door of the Alicents chambers suddenly swings open. Aemond appears joyfully as he runs in the direction of his mother.

"Mother, you must see this." Aemond laughed loudly whilst tugging on her arm. "Not this moment, Aemond. I'm currently trying to seek out your sister." She spoke calmly while observing her son. "Its Visenya mother, come quickly," Still attempting to prove to his mother, he declared.

When Alicent saw her beautiful daughter riding a dragon with Aegon in the background, she quickly grabbed her son's hand and rushed outside.

She had a mystical appearance, much as in the stories Visenya loved to tell her about. She was overjoyed to witness her daughter's dream of becoming a dragonrider come true. What Visenya has desired ever since she was able to speak for herself.

She was, however, also upset that her daughter disappeared from her without informing her of her whereabouts or establishing security to her. 

—----------------------

Visenya smiled as she led her dragon to the ground. She hurried in the direction of her mother and little brother Aemond.

Nobody could take away her tremendous pleasure at what she had accomplished. She was aware that they would be upset that she left them without warning, but Cannibal was worth the repercussions.

"Mother, I've earned my dragon at last!" Visenya exclaimed, eager to express her joy.

The Queen tried to be upset with her daughter, but she was helpless to do such. She didn't want to take away her happiness considering she deserved it.

Laughingly saying, "Don't leave like that again, young lady, or I might have to chain you to your bed," Alicent proceeded to hug her daughter firmly.

"Never again, mother." She gave her comfort.

"Congratulations, sister." Aemond expressed happiness for his sister, but it didn't stop him from harboring feelings of jealousy. "Thank you sweet brother" Visenya responded, she let go of her mother and went to hug her brother. "I shall take you everywhere with me brother." She gave her brother comfort. Everyone returned inside while Aemond grinned.

The majority of Visenya's time was spent on Cannibal with Aemond. It had been five days since Rhaenyra left, and King's Landing was peaceful. She was grateful for her family, especially her siblings, and had become pretty content with the way her life had turned out.

She and her brother Aemond would fly for hours each day.

She was led into the small council one day by the hand. Although she didn't know what they wanted, she was certain she wouldn't like it. She could sense the tension as she entered the room, despite the fact that Cole accompanied her silently.

She proceeded to a chair and waited for anyone to share what was happening after noticing that her mother avoided making eye contact and her grandfather Otto was anxious.

"What can I do to assist you, my Queen?" Alicent continued to look elsewhere as Visenya respectfully asked while turning to face her mother.

"We need to talk to you about something very important, granddaughter. A union of our houses through a betrothal with the Starks. Visenya was still perplexed about the situation, as Otto explained.

Is Aegon wed to a Stark? Visenya asked Otto, she didn't understand, and gave him a confused expression.

"Aegon will wed Helaena, But it is you who will wed Cregan Stark" The Hand made it clear.

Visenya's eyes were wide as she tried to grasp the information she had just been told—that she, a dragon, was about to wed a wolf. That would entail leaving her family behind and moving to Winterfell. She would have to get intimate with him and have his heirs.

A pact of fire and ice.

"When will I wed him, and can I bring Cannibal along?" Visenya asked, feeling a lump in her throat and tears welling up in her eyes as she gazed at her grandfather.

"On your ten and six name day, and yes, you can bring him along." Alicent finally spoke slowly,  raised her head to gaze at her daughter.

Visenya decided against asking further questions because she had little alternative except to accept the situation.  Her name day was a few years away, however Aegon and Helaena's wedding ceremony was just a few moons away..

One moons have passed, and things are moving quickly. Helaena and Visenya had to get their wedding gown made which took lots of their time. Even though her wedding was years away her mother suggest it would be best to have the wedding gown made to avoid stressing. Alicent was taking the big parts of the weddings. 

Throughout the entire planning process, she couldn't shake one thought.

What was Cregan Stark like?

Was he decent?

Was he a vicious, vile beast?

Was he an obese wolf?

Was he delightful?

She had no idea whom he was or what he looked like. She would never confess it, but she was concerned of what was ahead. When her chamber door unexpectedly opened to reveal her mother, she was lying in bed contemplating how she could finally get some rest.

"I must break some awful news to you, Visenya." Alicent muttered as she approached her daughter. "Am I no longer expected to marry Cregan?" She sought out in the hopes that her mother would call off the engagement.

"No dear, Lady Laena has passed away. We're attending her funeral." Visenya glanced at her mother in dismay as her mother spoke softly.

"Do I need to go?" She questioned her mom. "Yes, my love, we're all departing today. Your father, Aemond, and I will ride in the carriage, while you and your siblings will ride on dragonback." Alicent declared.

"No, Aemond will accompany me on Cannibal." Visenya informed her mother." If that's what you'd desire, Cregan will be there, and Bennard Stark will be paying their respects, too".  Her mother said, grabbing her daughter's head and placing a kiss on her forehead before leaving her chambers.

That left Visenya more worried than she was before, everything was moving fast and she couldn't keep up.

She only wants to ride a cannibal and perish in combat. She was more afraid of getting married and having kids than anything else.

Would Cregan treat her as her father treats her mother?

Would he humiliate and abandon their future children?

Would he disrespect her by having mistresses?

All she could do was hope that he would at least respect her.
