His close friend Alex who has been with Rhaegar through thick and thin since there time as slaves on the boat and days of captivity Alex has always provided to Rhaegar that he was a homosexual and Rhaegar opened him with open arms.
"So Katerina, Rhaena are you two smitten with each other don't deny I can see it and before you say anything I accept your feelings for each other" Rhaena and Katerina were silent and that confirmed it to him.
"It's okay you know I will always protect you from the oppressive clutches of the church but you will always have to keep it secret do you understand that's one way you can protect yourselfs" Katerina blushes but before she can say anything Rhaena spoke first "thank you cousin".

Rhaenrya smiled and shook her head "nothing like that my dear, it concerns my boy Lucerys" Rhaegar raised his eyebrow "what about him?" He asked curiously "I want you to take him as your ward" Rhaegar nodded his head "I'll be honoured...".
Before he could continue Rhaenrya spoke first "promise me whenever my boy goes you will protect him, whatever fancy place or town he goes to that he's not alone and doesn't get lost in the importance of his title and most importantly, that he is loved and not afraid to call for help, promise me Rhaegar".
Rhaegar considered this for a few moments these were the exact same words Rhaenrya had instilled in him while he was under her wardship "I promise" Rhaenrya searched his face but could not find no Trace of Hesitation she smiled and took his hand "thank you Rhaegar".
