Rhaella Velaryon, firstborn daughter of Rhaenyra Targaryen and Laenor Velaryon, and the second in line to the Iron Throne. Rhaella has spent her entire life ensuring she is nothing but the image of perfection, carefully considering every step, every word, every smile: knowing that their enemies are always watching and waiting in the shadows for her mother's downfall. She studied her high Valyrian to perfection, learnt the art of Westerosi politics, and never left her chambers with a hair out of place. Most of all, she knew to stay far away from her uncles and their mother, who had all resented the day she was born with silver hair and purple eyes. But she wore her legitimacy like armour, protecting her younger brothers, each with thick, dark hair, with fire and blood. Her mother had told her family was the most important thing in this world, family and their duty to the Seven Kingdoms, and she has never once doubted her. But when Rhaella is summoned back to Kings Landing, from her home on her adored Dragonstone, she knows she is to be tested more than ever before, and little does she know that a certain one eyed Targaryen is soon to became the bane of her entire existence. Perfection is just so damn hard to keep up, and the cracks may just be starting to show. •Enemies to lovers• •Slow burn• •Aemond Targaryen• •O/C Rhaella Velaryon• Disclaimer- Rhaella has been aged up considerably from the any other of Rhaenyra's children in the show/book timeline, just to make any relationship less inappropriate than it already is.
