It had been a couple of months after the banquet and the fight that had broken out. Laenerys cheek was fully healed thanks to the medicine at Winterfell. It had left a small scar which she found a bit bothersome but Cregan kept on calling it her first battle scar which would always make the pair of them laugh.
"So are you ready to ride a true dragon?" Laenerys asked him as she made her way over to where her dragon, Rhae was kept along side with Cregan.
"I already have ridden a true dragon, and she has ridden me." He said and shot a wink down to Laenerys as she shot him a look and rolled her eyes, but her cheeks had heated up a little bit.
"Rhae might just bite your head off if you say something like that in front of her." She told him and for a moment Cregan seemed genuinely worried for his life.
"What." Was all he said back and stopped in tacks.
"I'm Kidding." Laenerys told him and laughed before they both continued on. "Just be nice and she won't kill you." she made to add to scare him a little bit.
"Nerys, I'm being serious if it tries to hurt me or you, especially you then I won't hesitate to hurt it." Cregan spoke in a joking tone but it also came of as serious.
"Rhae would never hurt me and she will never hurt you either, trust me."
"I do trust you." He quickly replied.
A few more minutes passes of them waling when all of a sudden a large shadow covered them. There was no more light and only the silohuotte of her dragon, Rhae hovering above them remained.
"It's fucking massive!" Cregan shouted out as she flapped her wings around making both their hair blow around.
"She." Laenerys corrected him and Cregan just nodded back with his mouth agape.
It was true though Rhae was one of the biggest dragons alive at the moment, or at least the biggest one that the Targaryen family had. Rhae was about the same size as Vhagar but the two dragons looked very different.
Rhae was known as Rhae blood scales, due to her prominent blood red scales that she was covered in. The inner part of her wings were lathered with gold scales instead of red but they blended perfectly with each other, giving a contrast that was most beautiful from the view below.
Then she landed right in front of the pair and let out a death screaching roar that lasted for a few seconds. Once she had stopped she lowered her head down to Laenerys side and gently pushed against her.
Her head was about the size of Laenerys whole body, if not much bigger.
As Rhae gently nuzzled her face into Laenerys side cregan just stood behind her staring at the terrifying dragon that was staring right back at him.
Suddenly Rhae moved away from Laenerys and towards Cregan.
He was on edge and only seemed to want to latch himself onto Laenerys but he still held his ground when the dragon came to his side and let out a low growl. Cregan just stayed still and continued to look at the beast that was now sniffing him.
"What is she doing!" Cregan whisper yelled at Laenerys who was laughing as she watched his frozen figure trying to figure out what he was doing.
"She is just seeing who you are."
"And she does that by sniffing me!"
"Yes she does that by sniffing you."
After Laenerys said that she began to move away from Cregan and towards the neck of her dragon were she then placed a calming hand on Rhae before beginning to climb onto the saddle that was situated on her.
After she climbed onto her dragon, Laenerys whispered something inaudible to Rhae in high Valyrian.
Moments after she lifted her head from Cregan's side and turned to the side so Laenerys was now beside him looking down on him from dragon back and Cregan was looking up to her.
She quickly extented her hand down to him but he looked at her confused.
"You want me to come up there?" He asked her to which she nodded.
"It's not that scary once your actually in the sky." She reminded him quickly. "Come on don't you want to ride a dragon?"
"No, actually I don't."
"When I was a kid it was always my dream to ride a dragon and when I claimed Rhae it was the second happiest moment of my life." Laenerys told him and he raised a brow at her words.
"Was your first moment marrying me?" He asked with a smirk.
"No." Laenerys quipped back making Cregan's smirk fall.
"So what was it then?"
"Well its going to be riding Rhae with you."
Almost as soon as she said that Cregan took her hand and she pulled him up.
He sat behind her and let his arms snake around her waist. Laenerys placed her hands on the front of the saddle and once again whispered something to Rhae in high Valyrian before she started to flap her wings and slowly move higher into the sky over Winterfell.
"I don't like it." Cregan shouted as Rhae flew faster and the wind brushed against them both.
Laenerys only stiffeled up a laugh in response before telling Rhae to go high and faster.
