ℒove always wakes the dragon (Aemond x OC)

She is Daemon's daughter but she wants nothing from him, rides a dragon and doesn't shy away from a fight. She also hides a dangerous secret and has her own reasons for coming to King's Landing.
Aemond wonders if he can tame her.

...And yet, he refuses to lower his sword.

"Will you be as fierce without an arm?" Aemond hisses.

"I can survive without one. But I'll cut into your heart first," her voice is terribly calm, and he knows she's not bluffing.

► warnings: enemies to lovers, slowburn, angst, a sprinkle of Rhaenicent, Daemon does his best to be a decent father (more like I did my best to make him one), I toy with canon A LOT.
