It's Strange What Desire Will Make Foolish People Do. He catches a droplet of wine running from her lips to her chin with his thumb, his hand remains on her face as he cups her cheek with it he leans on his side so he's almost looming over her when she asks with a whisper "What are you doing?" "Breaking the rules." He answers simply then he connects their lips together. Following the chaos that broke out amongst the two factions within House Targaryen that evening at Driftmark Annerys Velaryon is betrothed to Aegon Targaryen by her Grandfather with the hope that their union might close the rift within his family. Annerys accepts that for duty she must forgoe love yet the longer she is marrried to Aegon the harder it is to distinguish who her Love and her Duty belong to anymore. When I set out to write a piece about House of The Dragon I started thinking about where a new character might fit in and how her story might have unfolded if she had been in Fire and Blood and rather than setting out to create a piece about Aegon. So whilst love does develop between the two characters Aegon retains his core character traits which we watch Annerys respond to in a patriarchal landscape where she has no allies other than her husband as her family remain at Dragonstone. My plan is to make a complex story with complex characters that can be read with nuance, but perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself. Anyway I hope you give it a try.

Born in the heart of fire and blood, Saera Velaryon, the eldest daughter and heir of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, was a child beloved beyond measure-a princess draped in adoration, raised to believe the Iron Throne was her birthright. The realm called her *Saera the Spoiled*, for she had never known a world where she was not treasured. But war does not spare even the most cherished. When the Dance of the Dragons erupts, the realm fractures between Black and Green. Prince Aemond Targaryen, the one-eyed rider of Vhagar, stands at the forefront of the war, a blade in the name of his mother, Queen Alicent Hightower, and his brother, King Aegon II. A warrior forged in anger, ruthless and unyielding, but was his sword ever truly theirs to start? Aemond harbors a secret-a devotion that undermines the very cause he supposedly fights for. For all his wrath and violence, his heart has been lost to Saera since childhood, bound to her by longing, by fate, by a love neither of them dared to name. When duty and desperation forced them into an marriage before the war broke, their union was meant to be a bridge between Green and Black, a political bond to quell animosity and resentment. But beneath the weight of war and betrayal, behind closed doors and whispered confessions, *love*-unyielding, undeniable-has already taken root. Their love is a treasonous thing, a flame burning between two sides sworn to destroy each other. And in the end, when the blood of kin stains the realm and dragons fall from the sky, Aemond must make a choice-his family or his wife, his crown or his heart. For what is duty when weighed against devotion? And what is a throne when set against love? _ "And then the storm broke, and the dragons danced."
