THE DAY THE TOURNEY was to start dawned bright and yet Allaria found herself unwilling to leave the bed. She laid on her side, hands tucked under her cheek, and watched Daemon sleep. They had a bit of fun last night with Rhaenyra. But she left early having to plan the tourney with her ladies Were she not wary of waking him, she could have stretched her fingers and caressed his cheek like the sunlight did. He looked so much tender sleeping vulnerable to her. She can't believe he acts like a Dragon terrorising the Keep at day, but a cat to her at night.
A grin stretched her lips. A corner of his lips curled the tiniest bit and she knew he was awake. "I can feel you smiling." She spoke softly touching his lips. He just chuckled and pulled her closer. The grin on her face widened and she leaned over to kiss his cheek.
He turned onto his back opening his eyes and smiled up at her, brows raised. "Am I? Are you not smiling? Hm, we should do something about that." His fingers ghosted up her sides and she collapsed onto his chest in helpless giggles. He laughed softly as he recovered from the blow to his stomach she dealt him as she did so.
"Not smiling at all, are we?"
She shook her head against his nightshirt, hiding her face stubbornly.
As she got up to prepare for the tourney, he followed her figure and shook his head fondly thinking how he got so lucky to have her.

Allaria sat with Rhaenyra and her ladies in the Royal Box, the past few days, she occasionally joined Rhaenyra to have dinner with the Royal family. Viserys has been kind to her enguiring about her 'father's' tapestries and her 'mother's' poems, he was such a fool. They spoke about Rhaenyra's projects to which the Queen would reply with a negative comment. 'As if her opinion matters'.
They don't pay much attention to her. She had charmed Alicent's kids though. Aegon and Aemond like to listen to her speaking about dragons. She even sang a few times to them, which Helaena loved, she thought with a fond smile.
They haven't yet been tainted by their mother's or Otto's influence. Speaking of Otto, he has taken to glare at her when they come across each other in the corridors. Apparently, he has ranted about her ideas of inspiring Rhaenyra's projects, that they don't have much fund in the Crown coffers, only to shut up when Daemon informed him that he is sponsoring them, to which Viserys rudely refused and announced that he can fund his daughter's projects.
She enjoyed visiting the Commonfolk with Rhaenyra's ladies. She is quite taken by them. They too have shown their disdain towards the queen. Last week when they visited the Orphanage to read to the kids, the Queen's ladies came and distributed coins to the kids. 'Seriously, that bitch is just jealous and doesn't want to be outdone'
Well, she can't let her mate be outdone, so she, Rhaenyra and the ladies themselves entered the streets and cleaned the streets. The people understanding that they were not there to watch, started helping them. Even Daemon sent some of his Golden cloaks to help them. These past moons have increased Rhaenyra's image among the commonfolk.
