Visenya Targaryen

Chapter Nineteen

" Visenya, everything will be perfect.". Mother tried to calm me. I looked out at the city as the many carriages and horses arrived, all carrying people from the houses of the realm. " Aemond will be dangerous, Mother. Jacaerys humiliated him days ago, and he hasn't been seen since. I'm worried.". " Visenya, Aemond will not touch you. I swear it, I have doubled the guards. I have Ser Harrold as your protector, and I have Ser Criston on the search for Aemond. Vaghar is still on her rock, so I know he is still in the Red Keep.".

I took in a deep breath and nodded. " Okay, thank you, Mother.". " Hurry and dress, we have a lot of people to welcome.". I nodded and held onto the bedframe, allowing Elina to tighten the lace of my corset. My dress was a dark red corset with black skirts, my hair was braided around my head, and a gold chain around my neck.

Ser Harrold escorted my mother and I to the throne room where I would welcome our guests with Jacaerys and his family. I stood next to Jacaerys and smiled as he complimented me. " You are beautiful, Visenya.". " Thank you, Jacaerys.".

The houses slowly entered the throne room, and we welcomed each of them before having a servant escort them to their rooms. It took forever, but we slowly managed to welcome the last guests that had arrived. " Lord Stark, Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North with his son Lord Cregan Stark.". I smiled and bowed my head as I welcomed the two men. My eyes were fixating on Cregan Stark as he smiled at me.

" Prince Jacaerys." He smiled before he turned to me again," Princess Visenya.". " A pleasure, Lord Stark. Thank you for coming on such short notice.". " I am surprised you are having this wedding so sudden.". " Yes, we have come across a lot of complications while planning this wedding, so we moved the date forward in order to fix it.". Jacaerys smiled. Cregan turned to Jace and nodded. " Of course, my prince. I'm glad we arrived on time, I would hate to miss such an event.". Cregan smiled as he turned back to me.

" Especially with a bride so beautiful.". My eyes widened at his sudden words, and my cheeks felt hot. " You flatter me, Lord Stark.". I smiled, trying to hide my embassment. Cregan smiled at me before bowing and turning to follow his father and the servant. " I think someone has a crush.". Jacaerys smiled at me. " That was certainly awkward." I chuckled." I wasn't expecting to catch the eye of the future warden of the North.". " Looks like I have some competition.". Jacaerys laughed with me.

I said my goodbye to Jacaerys as I made my way to my mother's chambers to finalise the last details for tomorrow. Nobody had told Aegon or Aemond of the wedding being pushed to tomorrow. They thought it was still days away. I spent the rest of my morning in her chambers with my sister and mother, picking the last bits of details such as food and placement. I smiled, taking a drink of my wine as it finished. " Everything is done," Rhaenyra smiled. " I suggest you draw a hot bath and relax, have a cup of wine, and read if you wish.". Rhaenyra smiled, rubbing my shoulder.

" That sounds amazing.". I smiled. " However, I have my last dress fitting to attend now, and then I shall finally be finished before the stress of the morrow.". I laughed, " I wish you all a good day, and I shall see you all for dinner.". I made my way through the halls, hurrying to the Royal dress maker with a smile on my face as I bowed my head to our guests.

" Mrs. Lawrence?" I called, opening up her door and smiling when she came around the corner. " Petfect timing, Princess! I think I've finally finished your dress.". " That is great news to hear.". " Come, come, let us get this gown on you to see if I need to make any last-minute changes.". I quickly stripped and changed into my wedding dress, smiling like an idiot when I looked at myself in the mirror. " What do you think, Princess?" ." I think it's wonderful.". I smiled, my eyes tearing up.

" Trying on your wedding dress can be an emotional moment, princess, especially for me.". She smiled, her eyes tearing up as well. " I made your mother's wedding dress and your sisters dresses, and I am so happy that I got to make yours.". I smiled and held Mrs. Lawrence's hand " I am glad you were able to make mine Mrs. Lawrence. I should take it off before I ruin it.". I laughed, changing back into my gown for the day.
