"I am my mother's daughter, and she's the rightful heir." Nessa gazed up at the One-Eyed Prince, "That's all you need to know."

"You think this makes you a true Targaryen?" Aemond twists the only streak of pale blonde on Nessa's hair, in a tutting manner he continued, "It's pathetic. If what you want is to be recognized as a Targaryen...all you have to do is marry me."

When the throne is usurped by an inadequate King, Nessa knows where her loyalties lie. In the endless war, forbidden love rises and she worries it'll stand in the way of giving Rhaenyra her full support. So she leaves Aemond... wifeless...

As the rest of her family meet their bitter end at the hands of the Greens, Nessa takes the name Targaryen and returns to avenge what was taken from her family only to find Aemond Targaryen sitting on the Iron Throne.

paradox - Aemond Targaryen by WinterPhoenix123
22 parts Complete
paradox - a seemingly absurd or contradictory statement or proposition which when investigated may prove to be well founded or true "She's a bastard. She could never hope to take my son, Aemond Targaryen as her husband." "Despite that, Alicent, she loves him. She is part Targaryen. Wed your son to my daughter, and we can keep the Targaryen bloodline pure." - Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen to Queen Alicent Hightower She left him once, a ten-year-old princess full of naivete about the world, full of hopes and dreams. Only once in that six-year period did she return, and she wasn't much older then. But then, she returned for good. And when he'd seen how much she'd grown, something leapt within his chest. Something long dormant was awakened. Feelings that had never come to the surface in all of sixteen years of his life had come to the surface now. After being mercilessly teased by his older brother and nephews, and barely regarded by his own father, and occasionally doted on by his mother, and adored by his sister - in her own strange way, he didn't really think that anyone loved him. Especially not after the accident that left him with a missing eye, an ugly scar and an eyepatch to show that he survived to tell the tale. But she did. Eleana Targaryen did. And come hell or high water, no matter what came their way, the two of them would find their love - and they would either stand together... or fall together.

Dragon Princess || Aegon II Targaryen by luisaqsantos

To some, she was just another princess who was kind, generous and had ethereal beauty. To the smallfolk, she was a dream and too good to share blood with the fuckers who rule Westeros and disgraced their lives. To Aegon, she was the love of his life. But the truth was Rhaenys Targaryen was the embodiment of the fire of Old Valyria. Gifted by the Old Gods of Valyria, Rhaenys possessed a unique bond with dragons. In fact, by the age of three and ten, she had already bonded with two dragons, a hacthling and others to come. Some whispered that she couldn't be burned, while others believed she couldn't bear children like any other woman. Some believe she was the embodiment of dragons herself. But neither Old or New Gods could predict or protect her from becoming one of the most significant players in the Dance of Dragons, the demise of dragons.

Aelora, the unsuspecting heir, would play a pivotal role in the dance of dragons that would soon come.
