Deamyra was not raised to inherit power.
She was raised to survive it.
In a court where daughters are bargaining tools and affection is a liability, she understands one truth above all: safety is never given - it is secured.
Valarr Targaryen is not the most charming of princes.
He is not reckless.
He is not easily swayed.
But he is steady.
In a world of unpredictable men and burning tempers, Valarr is restraint. Discipline. Protection forged in black steel. He does not promise romance - he promises order. And to Deamyra, order is worth more than poetry.
She does not dream of fairy tales.
She dreams of permanence.
Of a place no one can remove her from.
If becoming his wife means safety, she will become indispensable.
If bearing his child means security, she will not hesitate.
If loving him makes it easier to stay - she may allow herself that luxury.
Because in the game of dragons, love is uncertain.
But protection - protection can be chosen.
And Deamyra has chosen.
