—Just to clarify Philip and Dany are not actually married yet, just engaged as in Philip proposed and Dany said yes. The ceremony hasn't happened either, so they haven't had sex yet—

*Myra's Pov.*

Valyrion and I were currently resting in a grassy field a few kilometers from Kings Landing.
It was secluded by hills so no one would be able to see us from afar- I chose it for this exact reason.
Sometimes I just liked to be alone, to think things over and listen to nature. And this was the perfect spot to do it.

"Valyrion, do you miss your brothers and sisters?" I asked aloud gazing up at the sky.
Valyrion simply grunted and looked at me sadly. Though he couldn't speak, it was as though he could through his eyes.
"Stupid question. Of course you do" I sighed and turned to lay back against his scales.

I felt terrible keeping him from them for so long, especially when they were close by, but I didn't know how to even approach the situation. I couldn't just go up to the castle, ask Daenerys to show me her dragons, and then leave after everything we went through. It wasn't that simple.

However, it as it turned out luck was on my side.
A large roar echoed throughout the area, and Drogon and Rhegal flew over the hillside. Behind them were Valyrion's brothers and sisters, all grown up.
Valyrion screeched and surprise and flew up to meet them instantly. My eyes wandered over the group.

"Shit" I exclaimed finally noticing a body with blonde hair on the back of Drogon. She looked regal on top of the mighty beast.
However, my attention was drawn away from her as the dragons began to nuzzle and nip each other in greeting. Happiness was radiating off them, causing me to smile at the sight.

Out of the corner of my eye I studied Daenerys' movements.
She slowly directed Drogon to land in the clearing. Once she was safely on the ground, he flew back up to join his family.

Dany slowly walked over to me.
I could feel her presence beside me as I stood watching the dragons play, causing me to tense slightly.
For the first couple minutes, not a word was said. We simply watched them.

Standing here with Daenerys, staring up at all the dragons, I couldn't help but think about what she said. This could have been our everyday. Going flying with the dragons together, watching them play while holding hands and kissing.... just thinking about it made my heart clench.

While she wasn't looking I took the time to study her. She wore a white dress that hugged her in all the right places, and her signature dragon necklace. Her blue eyes reflected beautifully in the sunlight, and her blonde hair was braided together skillfully. She clasped her hands together in front of her as she gazed adoringly at her dragons.

Daenerys cleared her throat. "Valyrion is beautiful, you raised him well." My eyes snapped up to hers immediately. It was clear she was trying to hold back a small smile - she caught me staring.

I blushed. "Um, thanks?" I replied not knowing how else to respond and looked away again.
I could feel her eyes run over my body, as I fought myself to not look at her.

The silence was deafening, so I decided to break it.
"So... what brings you here?" I asked.
Daenerys pauses for a moment before answering.
"Well, every Friday the dragons and I usually go flying. I rarely see them throughout the week, so I dedicate Friday afternoons to spend quality time with them. Today we just happened upon you and Valyrion" she replied.
I nodded my head.
"What brings you out here?" Daenerys also asked.

"Just trying to clear my head. It's been a crazy couple of days" I replied.
Daenerys nodded in agreement.
"I certainly didn't expect to see you standing in the throne room again after so long. It was... a pleasant surprise."
I smiled. It felt nice knowing that she still cared about me.

"Well I didn't expect to be back there so soon. But we have more important matters to discuss. We should talk about that kiss" I started cautiously. Daenerys' face went white and she fidgeted nervously.

"I shouldn't have Myra. It was a mist—" she started before I interrupted.
"Yeah I get it, you've said that a billion times already" I sighed.
"I think it's best we stay friends Myra" she concluded. Great, I was friend zoned. I couldn't stand to look at her in that moment and turned my back to her.
"Fine, what ever makes you happy" I sighed. I would respect her wishes.

Daenerys grabbed my hand and pulled me around toward her again.
"Thank you Myra. Just... trust me on this."
I was about to respond, when I noticed a darker mark on her wrist.
It looked as though she hand been grabbed forcefully, the outline of fingers still visible.
"Daenerys, what the hell is this?" I questioned sternly trying to hold back my anger.
"Who put their hands on you?"

"Listen Myra—" she started before I interrupted. It was as though a blind rage took over me. Someone had hurt someone I love, and I would not stand for it!
"It was fucking Philip wasn't it? That prick. Who else would do it! Tell me it was him, and so help me I will..."
"You will not do anything, Myra" Daenerys finished.
"What!? Why not?" I exclaimed in exasperation. "You can't let him get away with this Dany, I know it was him! It's wrong!"

"He will get what is coming to him Myra, I assure you of that" she stated crossing her arms and looking at me pointedly. I gaped at her in shock. How could she just let him go without any punishment? It wasn't like Daenerys one bit. It was as though she was an entirely different person.

"I need him around right now Myra, for many reasons whether you like it or not. He has something I need" Dany explained due to my silence.
"What are you talking about Daenerys. What could that fool have that you don't?" I asked.
"You will know soon enough. But for now it's a close kept secret of mine" she responded.
"I have to go now Myra, but I will see you later" Daenerys said giving me a quick kiss on the cheek. I blushed furiously and watched as she walked toward Drogon who landed in the clearing.

Giving me a quick smile, Daenerys took off into the distance. Valyrion whined as his brothers and sisters flew away. "You will see them again soon buddy" I whispered.

As queen of the seven kingdoms Daenerys' word was law. However, I couldn't just stand and sit back. Tomorrow, I decided, I would give Philip a firm talking to.
