alyssa's pov
i leave the court and go to the gardens and sigh. i'm being sold off to aemond that hates my guts. he wouldn't even look at me. "princess Alyssa" his voice says. i pause and turn "prince aemond"  he joins me and asks "you mind if i join you?" i shake my head "no" eying the prince and he says "so...we're betrothed" i nod "yeah..." awkwardly.

he asks "why did you agree to it?" "it's not like objecting would help any? not only that but our family's feud needs to end" i sigh. he asks "so it's not about me?" "aemond when it was about you and how i care you treated me like shit" i remind him. he says "i apologize for that." he asks "do you still...care?" i nod and say "i don't think i've ever stopped" "good" he says. we spend more, awkward time together. before dinner. i sit beside aemond and send my  worried father a hopefully reassuring smile.

we have a nice time smiling and i eye my grandsire. who's happy we're together as a family again. i smile seeing luke but my smile drops as a pig is put in front of him and he chuckles looking at aemond. aemond stands hitting the table saying raising his cup "A final tribute to the health of my nephews" i warn "aemond" but he keeps going fucking hell "jace, luke, joffrey Each of them handsome, wise... strong. Let us drain our cups to these three Strong boys." his words cause a fight and i stand and push aegon away from luke snapping "get away from him" and he raises his hands in surrender knowing how i am. i walk to jace and put my hand on his chest "stop it. now" he says "he-"

i nod and kiss his cheek "i know. but don't" giving aemond a glare. my father sends the boys to their room and alicent says "we've prepared for alyssa to move to aemonds room" fuck. my father says "they're just betrothed today! they are not wed! she will be returning with us!" my uncle says "brother please. they're betrothed and need time to reacquaint themselves with one another for this match" my father snaps "you cannot and will not steal my child from me! she's mine! mine to wed to who i think is fit! she is my child." i grab his hand and say "kepus. look at me" father

he does and he says "i will not let them take you" i stroke his cheek "it's already been done dad. it's okay" he asks "and you're certain?" i nod "yes"
