To Love A King || Maegor Targaryen

"Monster, Tyrant, Cruel and Ruthless, they whisper behind my back, but when I say 'I love you', it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman. You're the one, Alicent. You are my wife, My Queen. MINE."

~ Maegor Targaryen

"My mother was made to produce heirs, until it killed her. I won't subject myself to the same fate."

~ Rheanyra Targaryen

"How sweetly the fox speaks when it's been cornered by the hounds."

~ Alicent Hightower

"You will never be a Queen, and he will never love you sweet sister, you will end up miserable, looking for death in your marriage."

~ Charlotte Hightower

"Dreams didn't make us Kings. Dragons did."

~Daemon Targaryen

"Every traits I hate about your mother, persist in you, she was insolent when I married her, I hope you'd grow out of it as she had Alicent, but alas, time continues to prove me wrong".

~ Ser Otto Hightower
