3 days later.

Alicent was very unhappy with the return of Rhaenyra and her family. Rhaenyra had left with her family and stayed in Dragonstone for close to three moons. It had been something good for Alicent and her family , while Rhaenyra and Daemon were away she became more powerful. When the lords did not see the princess they were more willing to listen to her and spend some time with her. She needed to find a way to get some of the lords to support her. She knew that once Viserys died and Rhaenyra ascended the throne she and her family would be the first ones to be killed . Alicent needed to find a way to get control of her children and turn them against Rhaenyra and Daemon. She hated the fact that her children called that woman mother and Daemon father. After everything she had done for them, she had fucked a man old enough to be her father and then made sure the best people took care of her children. She had wanted them to be prepared for when the time came. Instead, her children refused to even speak to her and Rhaenyra had married Aegon to a bastard girl from Flea Bottom. That would be one of the first things she would have to change when she took control of her children once more . She would need to get rid of Mansy and the boy , they could not be allowed to weaken Aegon's claim. Her uncle had already been executed , she could not allow any other of her family members to die.

She heard footsteps and turned to see Helaena walking down the hall. Alicent narrowed her eyes when she noticed what her daughter was wearing. The violet and silver gown was pretty but very revealing. It left her daughter's shoulders bare and the sleeves were partially transparent. The front of the gown dipped low and left a lot of cleavage exposed. Her daughter had not seen her , she was looking down at a paper in her hands.

"Helaena!" Her daughter jumped at the sound of her voice and looked up, her expression closing down immediately. Alicent moved closer to the girl. "What are you wearing?"

The girl looked down at herself before giving her a questioning look. "A gown."

"That is not appropriate , it looks like something Rhaenyra would wear." She could tell Helaena did not see the problem. "You look like a whore."

Helaena's cheeks turned pale before her eyes hardened. "I do not."

"Yes, you do." She moved even closer, ignoring when her daughter flinched. "All you are doing is inviting people to talk badly about you and to try to take advantage of you."

Her daughter's eyes filled with tears and Alicent was happy that the girl was finally listening to her. She needed to talk to Viserys and convince him to return the children to her.

"Do not speak to her that way!" The angry voice made Alicent jump and her face hardened when the silver-haired boy stepped around her daughter with a furious look on his face. "She does not look like a whore."

Alicent gave the boy an annoyed look. "This has nothing to do with you Jaehaerys ."

"Of course it does , you do not speak to my sister that way. She looks beautiful." The boy took a step closer to her and a sneer appeared on his face, making him look just like Daemon. "Just because you go around like a badly dressed septa in those horrible green gowns does not mean everyone has to dress that way."

Alicent was furious at the way the boy spoke to her like she was not the queen. She moved quickly and raised her hand , she would teach that child to be respectful.
