Melody June Baratheon had everything she ever wanted growing up. Three loving and protective brothers, the best education Westeros had to offer, friends, and lovers.
Now, Melody wishes she was someone else. Anyone else. Now that her eldest brother Robert was dead, Melody's other brother Stannis is running for governor against Robb Stark. In order to keep the Baratheon family's perfect image, Stannis insists on marrying his sister off, to a Lannister, despite the arguments from his advisor, Davos. Needless to say, Melody doesn't like the idea, but has no idea what else to do. So she agrees.
When she meets Jaime Lannister face to face, Melody hates him more than she can admit out loud. Jaime, however, seems at least a little pleased and protective of Melody. He brings his own security team with him and assigns one of the bodyguards to protect Melody. Melody and the guard hit it off and soon Melody begins to doubt if she'll be able to go through with the wedding. Unfortunately, there is no room for love in the game of politics.
This story is an AU. Cersei and Robert were never married only engaged, Jaime and Cersei are not in their...special relationship. XD I do not own any Game of Thrones characters. They belong to George R.R.Martin!
I do, however, own Melody AND my cover so please don't steal them!
This story will contain swears, fluff, angst, mentions of cheating, some steam and implied sex. Nothing to warrant a mature rating.
Davina Lannister is the youngest child of Tywin Lannister. She is very loved by her father, which is why he let her practice with Jaime swordsmanship, and he himself taught her how to properly shoot and arrow and never miss.
Davina is as much as a warrior as she is a lady like her sister, who taught her the art of manipulation and forced her to learn how to fight in skirts. This colorful upbringing, along with Tyrion's tales of amazing lands, gave Davina the heart of an adventurer.
So she struck a deal with her father, she would marry whomever he chose if he first let her fulfill her dream, and explore Essos beforehand. She was granted her wish, but first she had to meet her betrothed a week before her departure. Easy, what could possibly happen in a week?
Well a lot if your future husband is no other than Prince Oberyn Martell, the Red Viper, a man famous for his sexual drive. Introductions were made, insults were exchanged, and a deal was made between the future couple.
This is how a dance of lions and snakes began.

WARNING ⚠️
This story includes mature themes like: cursing, violence, sexual scenes, assault. I do not indulge any of the violent acts explored but remember it is a work of fiction.
I own nothing but Davina and my own twist of the story, everything else belongs to the brilliant George R. R. Martin and the HBO series creators.
