Blood Of My Blood

Doomed plan

"You cannot be serious!" Meya exclaimed as she laughed over the announcement her mother made to her. She was gonna marry Aegon. The person she despised the most in this tragic world. And there was nothing that could be done to stop it.

"You're marrying me off? And to HIM?" Meya yelled making it echo in the giant halls. "Of all people you picked him as an 'rightful perfect' match for me?!". Meya heart felt like it was in her stomach. She wanted to vomit. Tears were filling her eyes as she saw her mother fiddling with her fingers out of nervousness. " I know and I am deeply sorry for it." Rhaenyra apologised looking down to the floor. "But it's for our families best. Iff this match goes through. Our families will be reunited as one whole".

Meya shook her head and chuckled. The tears ran down her cheecks as she heard the words. 'Reunited as one', what kind of bullshit it that?
"He hates me, mother!" Meya let out. "He hates me. Always has and always Will be. And the same goes for me. I've hated him my whole childhood.

Meya imagined for a moment of how the married would look like in front of her. Them arguing, him drinking, her being all alone in kings landing with her family being on dragonstone. She would be in her own. Which was against what she really wanted. "You know what? I would rather be eaten by the dragon of his called Sunfyre than be his wife!" Meya made clear as she turned on her heel and walked out of the giant hall bumping shoulders with her father, Daemon.

Daemon's face followed her as she exited the giant doors leaving her parents alone. "You told her, didn't you?" Daemon asked looking over to his wife. Rhaenyra gave a weak smile and walked closer to Daemon. "I don't wanna do this. But it's for the best I suppose" she spoke up.

Meya walked fast to her chambers and closed the door with a bang. "UGH!" She groaned and kicked a chair making it fall over to the ground. A marriage proposal. To HIM?! Of all people her mother chose him as her betrothed. What a living nightmare. Meya leaned to the door and slowly got down to the floor with her hands in her face. Crying silently over the whole situation.

"Meya? You in there?"

Meya removed her hands from her face as she heard the knocking on her door. She got up on her feet and opened it slowly to reveal who it was.
It was her brother.
Jace.

"Are you okay?" He asked her worriedly. "I heard the door slamming shut and a loud noise right after". Jace left her gace and saw the chair lying down on the floor and then back to her. "I suppose mother has told you about the arrangement?" He let out.

He knew about this? How could mother tell others before her about her future? "You knew?" Meya snapped at him as she wiped away her tears. Jace nodded with a weak smile on his face as he stepped inside the room with Meya closing the door shut. "We could do it, you know?" Jace blurred out to her. Meya sighed over his comment. She knew what he meant by that. "You mean the 'plan' we made up as kids?" She assured him, getting a nod in return.

Memory about six years ago
***
Meya looked out from the balcony watching the beautiful view over the giant ocean. They had just arrived to Dragonstone the day after the incidents that happened on Driftmark.

Aemond loosing his eye.
Laenor found dead the morning after.

Those incidents.

"There you are!" Jace exclaimed running up to embrace her. Meya hugged her brother for a moment. Forgetting the world for just a moment or two. Jace pulled away from her only to discover her sadness resting on her face. Meya was still in morning for Ser Laenor.

Meya always had a hunch that he wasn't her true father. But it didn't matter to her. He was the one that raised her. His death hit her hard like a slap in the face. He was gone. And he was never coming back.

Meya looked down to her feet as she let out a sob. Jace pulled her in his embrace again hugging her tight. "It's gonna be okay. We have each other, sweet sister" he comforted her.

"We could leave this place." Jace said making Meya looked at him with a curious but yet sad smile. "We could fly out to Pentos, Essos or across the narrow sea and live our lives there as free people!"

"Jace you forgot one thing tho."

"What thing?"

"I have no dragon, remember?"

"We could fly on Vermax!"

Meya giggles over his answer. She liked the plan. Living like a free woman with no duty of marriage, being heir to a throne or whatever. Just to do what they themselves pleased to do or want. That sounded like a dream life.

End of memory

"It's not too late actually" Jace spoke up taken a step closer to her. " We could leave in the morrow".

"I leave for King's Landing next morrow"

"Okay then. We could ride tonight and forget all of this!"

"And do what actually?" Meya snapped at her brother. "Leave mother? Leave Joffrey and Luke? Leave our entire family behind? Jace, I am to marry Aegon now. It's too late!". Jace smile dropped from his face as she snapped. He knew deep down they could've never done it. It was a doomed plan. But that didn't stop him from making him angry when it sounded as she cared about duties.

"And I thought you didn't care about duties." He made it clear with a serious look on his face. "Last time I checked. Duties were the whole thing  that made you want to get away from Westeros!".
He was right. She knew that deep down. Iff she could she would have had gotten away with him to god knows where and live her dream life weeks ago. But it was to late now. The arrangedment has been made. And there was no going back now.

"Iff we leave Dragonstone or Westeros tonight. It could out our family in danger and I don't wish for that to happen. My family means more to me than my life!" Meya said with anger through her teeth. "I surely do not care about this arrangement noir do I care of the beloved prince Aegon Targaryen. I have no say in this situation. But that does not mean that I would run away from it when it could put other's life's than mine at stake!". Meya bumped his should as she walked right past him and over to the large windows in her room.

"I want you to leave" she said not facing him but the view of the ocean and the cliffs by the sea. Jace nodded with an annoyed face as he left her chambers.

Leaving Meya all alone to herself crying over the whole situation and how her future will turn out to be.
