"Halt!" A man yelled.

Rhaenyra fluttered her eyes open, slowly with furrowed eyebrows as her purple orbs sees the sight. Her whole body facing the end of the bed, from the doorless entrance she sees the blue dim light reflecting from the horizon. The voice of the man shouting and grumbling from outside the cabin awoke her. When she realized where she was, she sighed. Not ready to step foot on the land yet- she turned around recklessly- facing the forgotten queen she slept beside with.

Her eyes widened shockingly at the sight, the queen frowned while still unconscious closely beside her well of course- due to the size of the bed they chose to sleep on together. Rhaenyra's breath stopped for a moment, but her heart beat rapidly. She quickly pulled herself from her thoughts and blinked a couple of times before leaning backwards to stand up from the bed. Cautious enough not to wake her father's wife. She hurriedly grabbed her dress and cursed herself under her breath for forgetting how difficult it could be to tie her dress from the back.

She kept her body facing the wall while pulling the sleeves of the dress on her arms. She flipped her hair to get it out the dress and tries to reach for the ties just below her midback where she left it removed. "Seven hells," she mumbled under her breath. She kept on reaching her lower mid back but she struggles. She sighed in loss of hope and is thinking about asking Caspain for help but that would be.. just different.


Just when she was about to turn around- she felt a hand held her dress. She mutely gasped in startled but she refused to move.


"Maybe next time you shouldn't untie all of it most," The queen spoke lowly behind her, she tied the princess' dress, locking it up and having it properly on the targaryen girl. Rhaenyra knew it was the queen but something inside her heated up at the raspy morning voice of Alicent.

Once finished, she slowly turned around, disagreeing to meet the queen's eyes when she faced her, "Thank you.. your grace." she mumbled under her breath before walking past the queen while grasping her breath.


Once she got out of the room in her fastest way possible, she exhaled a ton of air she didn't realize she was holding. She inhaled once more and the smell of sea salt came in through the princess' nostrils.

Caspain noticed the princess who just walked out from the cabin while he helps the men in the ship move the exports from the King's Landing. He grinned, "Good morning, princess,"


The purple orbs met hers, "Caspain," Rhaenyra raised her eyebrows at the shirtless boy who's approaching her with his signature smirk, "How was your sleep? I heard you and the queen had to share a bed, how did you two even fit on that tiny bed? I could have offered you mine and I would've just slept outsi-"


Someone cleared their throat, making the man and princess look behind only to see the queen Alicent on her dress with hands on her stomach, looking plainly at the blonde.


"Your grace," He bowed his head nervously,


"Lord Caspain." Alicent nodded and slowly averted her eyes to the princess, "Rhaenyra," She nodded at her.


Rhaenyra pressed her lips on a thin line, avoiding the queen's eyes before nodding, "Your grace."
