Viserys
"You spend more time in that bath than I do on the iron throne. "
Viserys entered the chamber where his beloved pregnant wife and queen Aemma is taking her bath.
From the oak tub Aemma looked back to greet her husband. Viserys sits next to the bath and dips his hands in. He then frowned.
"It's tepid."
"It's as warm as the maesters will allow." Answered Aemma.
Viserys scoffs. "Don't they know dragons prefer heat?"
"Hmm. After this miserable pregnancy, I wouldn't be surprised I hatched an actual dragon." Aemma jests.
"Then he will be loved and cherished." Viserys said, lovingly. He gently kissed his wife's hand. Aemma smiled a little at the show of her husband's affection.
"Rhaenyra has already declared she is to have a sister."
"Really?" Viserys asked. Curious what brought for his daughter to declare such a thing.
"She even named her." Aemma let's an amused tone bleed at her words.
"Dare I ask?"
"Visenya. She already chose a dragon's egg for the cradle that she said reminded her of Vhagar."
Viserys shook his head, exasperated at his own daughter. "Gods be good. This family already has its Visenya."
Both of them shared a fond smile over this matter.
"Has there any been word from your dear brother?" Aemma suddenly asked.
"Not since I named him Master of Laws. I even intend to replace him for Lord Lyonel Strong. " Viserys let out a sigh. "I'm sure he will re emerge for the tourney. He could never stay away from the lists." He assured.
"The tourney to celebrate the firstborn son that we presently do not have. You do understand nothing will cause the babe to grow a cock if it does not already possess one?" Aemma's words do cut Viserys' heart. But he does not only wish a son as a father, but also as a king.He can't give up until he presents the seven kingdoms with an heir to serve for the Iron Throne. It's his duty for his house and for the realm.
"This child is a boy, Aemma." He declared with full certainity. He knows since he dreamt of his heir to continue his bloodline and to produce descendants to complete the pact of the song. The Song of Ice and Fire.
His wife scoffs at his confidence.
"I'm certain of it. I've never been more certain of anything. The dream. It was clearer than a memory. Our son was born wearing Aegon's iron crown. When I heard the sound of thundering hooves splintering shields and ringing swords. I placed our son upon the Iron Throne as the bells of the Grand Sept tolled and all the dragons roared as one. " Viserys'eyes were distant as if recalling a precious memory.
"Born wearing a crown?" Aemma sardonically laughed."Gods spare me. Birth is unpleasant as it is. "
Viserys said nothing but kisses her hand again.
