Siren groaned as she woke up. There was the soft caress of someone's lips on her stomach, her nightgown pushed up to above her waist. She shifted her hand reaching down to touch the soft hair of her husband. His warmth was missing from beside her. "My prince?" She asked her voice thick with sleep,

Roman leaned up and kissed her. "The youngest were moving. I knew the other two were quieter when I was touching your stomach."

Siren smiled. "You do always take care of me so well." She mumbled. "They are quite annoying when you're not doting on them."

Roman chuckled. "They adore me just like their mother."

Siren smiled. "I do adore you it's true."

Roman smiled. "These two are so like their mother already, that I can tell that they are perfect."

Siren smiled. "Yes this daughter is pure Tyrell. She's a rose not a dragon."

Roman smiled. "Well just like dragons teeth, a rose always has its thorns."

Siren kissed his head gently. "Our children are not short of claws or thorns." She promised brushing his hair from his eyes. "They shall be the most feared princes and princesses in the world."

Roman smiled. "They are all dragons." He answered. "And roses like their mother. The most beautiful woman to behold in all of the seven kingdoms."

"You've never been to dorne how can you say that?" Siren asked.

Roman smiled. "Because, it's impossible for anyone to be more beautiful than you my queen."

Siren smiled. "Our children might give me a run for my money my king."

"Your highness? Your father wishes you to join him in the hunt. The white stag has been spotted." Someone's nervous voice came from behind the tents doorway."

Siren sighed. "Go my love. I shall spent the day with our children."

Roman nodded. "I shall see you soon." He leaned up and kissed her gently.  Siren kissed him back and he quickly dressed before leaving. Siren sighed and sank back onto her pillows.

"Siren!" Came the soft call of the current queen. "Is rhaenyra with you?"

Siren carefully got up with a soft groan. She carefully dressed herself and left the tent. "No, have you checked her tent?" She asked.

Alicent nodded. "Her maids haven't seen her all night. She got into a fight with her father and left."

Siren took a deep breath. "Did you send out riders?"

Alicent nodded. "Ser cole went after her."

Siren nodded. "I shall ride after the hunt and see if Roman's talked to her." She answered starting for the horses before glancing down at her stomach. "Damn I can't ride."

Alicent frowned. "What are we to do?"

Siren glanced around. "Ser Harwin? Ride after Roman. Tell him that his sister is missing and if he doesn't give his wife an idea of what to do, she's going to go galloping into the forest."

Harwin nodded. "I'll be back soon Siren." He promised swinging himself onto his horse and riding away. 

Alicent sighed. "Come you should eat. Roman will have my head if I don't make sure you're taken care of."

Siren nodded. "I don't think I can stomach him yelling at the moment." She agreed.  She sighed and started for the tent where they were setting out the food.

Alicent glanced at her. "Is this one progressing nicely?" She asked timidly.

Siren nodded. "It is." She answered. "Although if Roman gets me pregnant again before these twos first name day, I fear that we shall have problems."
