Visera woke up frantic searching for her baby, but calmed when she saw her asleep in Aemond's arms. She smiled at both of them asleep.

She had never felt such a love than the one she held for the two of them, though for each of them it was a different love. She wouldn't know what to do if something happened to them. Aemond smirked at her when he felt her eyes on him.

" your staring." He pointed out his eye still closed, she rolled her eyes and shook her head. " I am simply admiring." Aemond's eye opened and he smiled at his rose.

" there's a difference?" He smirked at her once again as her cheeks began to redden. She hated and loved how nervous he made her, how he made a weird felling flutter in her stomach.

" how long have I been asleep?" She asked dodging his question. His eye was now open and held a look Visera couldn't quite understand.

" a few hours, mother and Florence had took Dae and placed her on your ..." he trailed of with a awkward cough and motioned towards her breasts." because you would not wake up."
She nodded just as Daeleyes woke up with a smile.

Visera grabbed her and began to talk to her as Aemond watched with a smile, but his smile dropped a frown replacing it. " we leave today." He said as his frown deepened, he knew she was not happy here and he wanted to take her home.

This has been the first time they seen each other since her wedding...since they professed their love, since they shared their first time together. And Aemond didn't wanna leave her alone with this man, he promised their mother he wouldn't kill the man for the bruise he left.

" Oh."

" I wish I could bring you home." Aemond said with a sigh standing up and began to pace around the room. Daeleyes's eyes followed him as he did so, but slowly closed as she couldn't keep them open.

" as much as I hate it here Aemond, this is my home now." He just scoffed and shook his head, how could she say that he thought.

<•*•>

Visera watched from the window of her chambers as her mother's and brother's carriage left the gates of Casterly Rock. Aemond had left with a quick kiss and a kiss on Daeleys's head, while they were still alone. Their mother hugged her and the baby, she almost had to drag Aemond with her out of the
room.

Visera knew there was a possibility of Daeleyes being Aemonds and it made her happy. She was glad her daughter might not be her husband's, but she could not tell anyone not even Aemond.

The door to her chambers burst open revealing her husband who seemed to be seething. " are you alright husband?" On the outside her body was calm but on the inside she was anything but, because she knew what was to come.

The beatings were a normal routine for the two, he would never make the bruises noticeable, and they would always get worse each time. And with her hitting him earlier she knew this one would be the worst one.

" no my love, you were supposed to give me a son." He shut the door before walking closer to her with each word. She laughed and she regretted it as soon as she did, he grabbed her throat harshly squeezing just enough so she could still breathe.

" was there something funny in my words?" He spat, his spit landed on her face making her want to throw up.

" no, I was just saying that's not something I can control." She barely got out from his hand that was still squeezing her throat. He squeezed harder from her response, his hand cut of her airway and she could not breathe now.

She clawed at his hands as he began squeezing even harder. Her vision began to blur and her heart, once quickly beating, is now slowing in tempo. Her head spins as she try's to gasp for air but she felt her life slipping away. The only thing keeping her conscience was her daughter, there was no way in the seven hells she would leave her alone with him.

So she fought with all of the energy she had left, she kicked and kicked but nothing happened. He got closer to her ear and whispered " next time you will think twice before hitting me." He let go, Visera fell to the ground in a coughing fit, clutching her neck.

" she is no daughter of mine." That was his last words before leaving the room, she was tired so she curled up on the floor and fell asleep.

Florence found her an hour later, and she feared the worst. She shook the princess but she didn't move, it wasn't until Daeleyes started crying in her arms that Visera woke.

Florence too was crying as she woke up, and she gasped once she saw her neck. " what did he do to you?" But Visera shook her head and grabbed her daughter, she wanted nothing more than to take her daughter, Ser Gerald , Aemond and Florence and flee. To where she didn't know but she just wanted to leave.

" I will be fine Flor, it's nothing that hasn't happened before." She said as she began to feed her daughter.

Florence let out a sob and shook her head, Visera looked to her with a sad smile." I will never let him touch you again." Florence promised as tears form in both of their eyes. Florence would do anything for that girl, she would kill for her, she would even die for her.

But they both knew in that moment that there was nothing she could do, but it's the thought that counts right?
