The Love of a Dragon

Part 21

Aegon's Pov, 

Day of the Wedding. 

Sitting at the large and I mean large table as the feast has started I soon see of course Jason Lannister walk into the room with some of his family members and some of his bannermen. 

"House Lannister with their lord, Jason Lannister. Lord Paramount of the West, and Master of Casterly Rock. House Hightower with their lord, Hobert Hightower. Beacon of the South, Defender of the Citadel, the Voice of Oldtown.." Ser Harrold loudly speaks as the Lions reach us and bow down before Lord Jason steps up. 

"Congratulations Your Grace, this wedding is one to go down in history..... and you as well Princess with the fine match for your own marriage." He speaks and I nod my head before Rhaenyra speaks. 

 "Thank you Lord Jason I could not have thought about a better match than Ser Leanor." She says and he bows his head before walking away, and just as the Hightowers wish to walk forward with of course Otto being one of them drums are being heard making them step to the side. Hearing the heavy wooden doors open soon the Velaryons walk in. 

"Lord Corlys of House Velaryon. Lord of the Tides, Master of Driftmark. Hand of the King.  And his lady wife, Princess Rhaenys Targaryen. And their daughter, Lady Leana Velaryon, the future queen consort."  Ser Harrold loudly speaks making claps soon fill the Throne Room as they walk closer and closer to us while the many people raise from their chairs and I soon do the same. 

As they bow before us soon I step away from the table and towards Leana. "My Betrothed." 

 "My Betrothed." We both say as I take her hand in mine and place a kiss against it making once again turn the hall into one of claps. Leading her towards her seat that's next to mine the other people that came with them bow their heads, as Leanor sits down next to Rhaenyra and Rhaenys with Lord Corlys also take their seats soon the hall becomes silent again as I look around me. 

"Be welcome, as we join together in celebration. We honor the crown's oldest and fiercest ally, House Velaryon. Reaching back to the days of Old Valyria and the Age of Dragons. With House Targaryen and.. House Velaryon being joined together I'm sure that dragons will rule over Westeros for many more years. But when I look around me as we sit here and feast at this food......... we both decided that we do not wish to host a week full of feasts and tourneys." I start before I hold my hand out towards Leana who rises from her seat. 

"We've decided to put the coin back into the people of Westeros, so tonight we will feast and as of tomorrow I know that me and your queen will do everything in our power to help Wetseros thrive, and I hope you will all join us in that. Only together can we bring change to the world." I continue and soon more and more claps are being heard while I lead Leana towards the middle of the throne room for the bloody dance I let Viserys talk me into. 

..................................

The music has been playing, the people have been dancing, feasting and drinking as the night has been going on and on. So far it's been good.... it's been fun even in a way. 

Doing the dance I soon turn away from Leana before I see none other than Rhaenyra stand in front of me as we continue. "Is this what you want Uncle, wedding her." 

"As King I can want many things, as King also I sometimes have to put my own desires aside for what's best to do for the realm." I say as we keep doing the dance and she grabs my arm before pulling me away with her. 

"What do you desire, Leana she's beautiful but she's not enough for you." 

"How do you know what's enough for me Rhaenyra?" 

"Because we share the blood of the dragon you and I...... Leana will not be enough for you just like Leanor will not be enough for me." She counters and I shake my head as my eyes move towards Leanor who's dancing with his sister. 

"You once told me that in my chambers it doesn't matter what I do, what if I wish you."  She continues making my eyes turn back towards her as she has her hands on my chest. "I'm no child anymore that you can dismiss, and I know what I want..... and what I want is you." 

"I am not what you want Rhaenyra yo-" I start before screams are being heard as the music stops, feeling people push and pull as a circle is being made I look around me. "What the bloody hell." I say as I grab Rhaenyra's arm and pull her away from the scene. 

"Stay here." I say as I let her go and get ready to break the bloody fight up! "Aegon." She starts as she tries to grab my arm and it's too late as I have already disappeared in the crowd as I push people away to get closer and closer to the middle. "Leana!?" I yell as I try to find the girl as my eyes dart around the scene but so far I can't find her.

Seeing Ser Criston just continue to hit one of the Velaryon guests I soon tackle him away before a punch is delivered against my face by the man making the crowd gasp in shock before it falls silent. Feeling blood drip down my lip I bring my fingers to it while the other man lays lifeless on the ground with his head bashed in. 


"Seize him!" I yell and soon Ser Harrold and Ser Steffon are quick to move forwards as they grab Criston while I get up again. Seeing people leave the hall it's just all fallen into ruins..... I should have had him dismissed when I heard what he and Rhaenyra did! 

"Shove him into a dark cell, I will deal with you in the morrow!" I continue and they start to drag the man away while I see Leanor crawl over towards the body as cries leave his lips. Nothing should have pushed him to first of all brutally butcher that boy or hit his king in the bloody process. 

..............................

"The love of the Seven is holy and eternal. The source of life and love. We stand here tonight in thanks and praise to join two souls as one. Father... Mother... Warrior... Smith... Maiden... Crone... Stranger. Hear now their vows." The Septon speaks as I stand with Leana opposite me in the Throne room..... I wished to give her a feast and look how it turnend out a man was killed...... .and now I have to wed her like this. 

"I am yours and you are mine. Whatever may come." 

"I am yours and you are mine. Whatever may come." We both speak as our eyes are on the others while I still feel some blood drip down my lip making me raise the piece of cloth to wipe it away. 

"Here, in the presence of gods and men, I proclaim... Aegon of House Targaryen... and Leana of House Velaryon, to be man and wife." He says and I lean down before softly placing my lips against hers for a brief second before a bloody thud is being heard. 

Pulling away my eyes widen as Viserys lays on the ground. "Viserys.. hey! Someone get a Maester!" I practically yell as I fall down on my knees next to the man and his eyes are just closed. "Get a Maester!" I yell once again and soon steps are being hear leaving the Throne room while I look Viserys over. 

"Come on you have to open your eyes you stupid man." I softly say as I lean my ear down and do hear his soft breathing making a breath I didn't know I was holding leave my lips. "You need to open your eyes.... your to young some might say to meet the stranger." I continue as I pull his head onto my lap and brush the hair off of his face. 

"Y-you can't leave me alone Viserys."
