"Nyra.." The blonde sighed in relief beside her. "I thought you weren't going to show up."
Rhaenyra smiled at her dear friend, "My uncle Ector has managed to convince me." Then she gave the Bohemond a glance who sat next to her friend.
"Is that so?" The king raised an eyebrow to his daughter, skeptical of her.
Rhaenyra sharply turned her eyes back to her father with a sly smile, "Yes, my king." She replied with a small hint of sarcasm.
The people eyed the two at the tension between the father and daughter. Viserys tore his eyes away from the princess before clearing his throat and grabbing his goblet as he stood up, raising the cup.
"I raise my cup to Lady Alicent Hightower, to the woman I will be marrying, the soon to be new queen of the Seven kingdoms as she will stand with me side by side as I rule..." He paused and slowly glanced at his daughter,
"And will be the new mother of princess Rhaenyra.." Alicent glanced at the princess uncomfortably. "She will bring happiness and safety to our realm. She will make a fine queen." He finished.
"To Lady Alicent Hightower." They all raised their goblets before drinking on them. Alicent gave thanks to the king and with a smile before they all started eating.
"Rhaenyra.." The king called as he sliced his meat. "You will do the honor of dressing lady Alicent when the ceremony comes." He chew on his meat.
Rhaenyra gave her father a hard glare, "Is it necessary, your grace?" Even if she gritted on her teeth, she still tried to maintain a humble and soft tone.
"You are my first born, you shall do the honor." He replied plainly.
Rhaenyra inhaled sharply before releasing a loud sigh, "As you wish."
The next three days, Rhaenyra spent her time riding Syrax and avoiding the royals, her father and new step mother who she started to despise. The lady Alicent has been nothing but nice and approachable to Rhaenyra but even still, Rhaenyra gives her the cold treatment.
Right now as she rides Syrax, she lands her on a field right beside the sea. She quickly jumped off Syrax and fell down on her knees before vomiting in the desert.
Tears are forming in her eyes as she visualizes her thoughts. Her mother's last appearance to her when she was still alive and when she was cut open like an animal, her brother who could have so much potential if he lived, her father.. God how she despises him, and then there is the Lady Alicent.
The woman who used to be Queen Esther's friend and who used to play with the princess when the king and queen are away. She couldn't help but feel broken for her mother, a friend who will be marrying her husband after dying just a few days ago. She then thought about Alicent and Viserys if they were to have a child, she couldn't bear the thought of it.
Once the princess' vomiting stopped, she spit out one last time before panting. She wiped her tears as she kneels there with both of her hands on the ground for support.
Then she cried once more, her sobs continued. Ever since her mother's death Rhaenyra started to become very resentful. She also started to feel a spiking pain on her abdomen whenever she was nervous, anxious, and stress. She becomes nauseous rather.
Her dear friend doesn't know about this yet for she thinks it will quickly pass away, that it will be nothing in a few weeks. But it didn't, she started to vomit and feel lightheaded instead.
She heard Syrax purr behind her so she whipped her head to look at the dragon. She swallowed before weakly standing up.
