SIX MOONS LATER.
The room was filled with heavy breathing, the rain and thunder roaring outside. It was morning, Alana could hear the servants walking down the halls of the Red Keep. Aegon laid beside Alana, the blankets twisted around his waist. His head was resting on her chest, as his fingers traced patterns on her stomach.
"The storm is getting worse." Alana mumbled, staring at the ceiling.
"Then let's not leave the chambers today." Aegon lifted his head, placing kisses on her neck.
Alana closed her eyes at the feeling, as much as she wanted to stay in bed all day she promised she'd see Helaena today, especially since Helaena could be in labor any day from what the maester said. "I promised Helaena I would see her today."
"But the bed is so comfy with you here." He wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer and continued to pepper kisses on her neck, but not making marks. "And it is going to rain all day."
"And Helaena is full with child, she could give birth any day." Alana said, tangling her hand in his silver hair.
Aegon let out a sigh, rolling off her and onto his back. "It is too cold to leave our beloved chambers."
Alana chuckled and sat up, her chest on full display to him. "And perhaps shave your beard? Your slight stubble scratches my chin when you kiss me."
"Then I shall honor your request then." He kept glancing back and forth on her chest and face. "Your chest seems fuller, does it not?"
Alana raised her eyebrows looking at her chest before looking back at him. Alana shrugged, and got off the bed, grabbing her dress that was on the chair and put it on.
Aegon sighed and sat up, leaning against the headband watching her. "It's very cold without you."
"I will be back." Alana tied the laces of the dress, her hair hanging loosely on her back.

Alana knocked on Helaena's and Aemond's chambers, Alana silently prayed to the old gods and the new that Aemond wasn't there.
The door opened revealing Helaena, a hand on her large stomach. "Alana." Helaena smiled, before ushering her in.
Alana was quick to notice that Aemond stood by the window staring out to the rainy weather. Alana assumed he was upset because he couldn't ride Vhagar and couldn't train because of the rain.
Helaena sat on a chair with a cushion on it, Alana following in pursuit. "The babes are active today." She smiled.
"Babes?" Alana raised her eyebrows, "You think it'll be twins?"
