They said it softly at first.
'Plainly Targaryen."
A murmur behind jewelled hands. A knowing glance across candlelit corridors. The same verdict passed from servant to lord as the silver-haired princes tore through the halls of the Red Keep like sparks leaping from a flame.
They said it again when the third child was laid upon Rhaenyra's breast-before the sheets had cooled, before the bells could toll. No hesitation. No doubt.
These were not rumours made of shadow.
These were children of fire and blood.
Each boy bore the unmistakable mark of Old Valyria: silver-gold hair, violet eyes, the sharp, cruel beauty of dragon-lords. They looked nothing like whispers suggested they should.
And everyone noticed.
The court did not speak openly. It never does. Instead, it watched. It calculated. It counted moons and measured absences. It remembered the prince returned to King's Landing under cover of night and the princess never truly stopped burning for him.
Because if the realm believes Laenor Velaryon fathered Rhaenyra's sons...
The truth is far more dangerous.

HOTD AU
What if Rhaenyra's three eldest sons were not born of duty... but of desire?
What if Jacaerys and Lucerys, twins, and their younger brother Joffrey carried more than just the Targaryen name?
What if they were fathered by Daemon?
In this AU, Jace and Luke are twins.
Baela and Rhaena still exist but they are not Daemon's daughters.
Rhaenyra Targaryen - portrayed by Milly Alcock (prologue) and Emma D'Arcy
Daemon Targaryen - portrayed by Matt Smith
All other characters remain as in the series- except the princes, who bear the unmistakable silver-gold of House Targaryen.
Because in a court built on perception, appearance is power... and these boys look like their father.

❝ Every time a Targaryen is born the Gods flip a coin and hold their breath. ❞ Baelor grew up as the son of the infamous Daemon Targaryen. Duty was something that was never considered in the boys mind. To be king was never on his list either. Getting pulled into marriage opened up a rift between kin. Then kin against kin, dragon against dragon, became a war of death. Daenys was her parents only daughter. Their treasure and pearl. But once war breaks out, she's forced to perform her duty. Fighting for her mother's right was more important to her than some betrothal to a northern lord. She didn't belong there. She knew that. But yet, a yearning pulled her further into the depths of the cold harsh North. (Seasons one - ? / Fire & Blood) (Rhaenyra Targaryen x male oc, act i - ?) (Cregan stark x female oc, act iii - ?)
Familiarity ||| Jacaerys Velaryon
Jace/Female OC -NOT A SELF INSERT SMUT A bit of a Cregan Stark side story. He pleases BOTH of his dragons. That's all I'm gonna say about that. Precursory for new readers: this was written after season one of HOTD, I will not be changing anything when season 2 comes out. Also ages are not my strong suite and may be inconsistent but any smut happens when they're both of age Daemon swore a child could never grow in the venomous pit that was his bronze bitch in the Vale. It was the sense of humour of the Gods to give Rhea Royce a child the very image of her absent husband's own mother. An even further mockery of the Royce line was the carbon copy attitude Alyssa Targaryen was gifted from her father. "𝘈𝘭𝘺𝘴𝘴𝘢 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘋𝘢𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘰𝘯; 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺'𝘳𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘤." His little dragon, his child to a fault. And there were many. But Alyssa was ever her father's daughter. Eternally loyal to her family, breaker of law and tradition, and eager to cause as much upset in any capacity it is provided to her. She has tastes and desires that are satisfied no matter what the poor Septas have tried to tell her. Alyssa is Daemon Targaryens child. She will never turn her back on her family. She will defend Rhaenyra's honour as fiercely as if it was her own. Jacaerys Velaryon finds himself a fortunate ally to Alyssa Targaryen. His sense of duty and sacrifice do not go unnoticed by the fiery and impulsive daughter of the Rogue Prince. She has the fire to burn their enemies to the ground. He has the breeze to fan the flame brighter or the structure to keep the fire contented. *** "I fear for the men of the realm when she grows into a woman." Daemon shook his head. "I fear only for myself." ***Complete
Sweet obedience
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.

God's Game | House Of The Dragon
M-A-M-A. G-I-R-L. Mamas Girl. Alicent Hightower loved all her children. She did, and no one could deny that. But she has and always will love her youngest daughter Aemma Targaryen just that little bit more. Aemma didn't look or act like any of her Targaryen siblings or her father. She looked exactly like her mother. With her reddish brown hair and green eyes, the only notion of her Valyrian heritage being the specks of violet in her eyes. Along with the fact that her twin brother was Aemond Targaryen, a man who looked to have the truest of true Valyrian blood running through his veins. The only downside was that Alicent couldn't speak her name. Of course the one thing that Viserys took from Alicent was choosing HER daughters name. And of all names the one of his deceased wife Aemma Arryn. Follow the story of Aemma Targaryen as she plays God's Game.
