Lady Iris Thornewell has always been good at pretending , which makes her the perfect candidate to be shipped off to Dragonstone, dressed in silks and smiles, to charm Prince Jacaerys Velaryon into a political match neither of them asked for.
The only problem? Iris has no interest in marrying any man. Not now. Not ever.
What began as a calculated alliance becomes far more complicated when Iris finds herself captivated not by her betrothed, but by Baela Targaryen, a dragonrider with wild eyes and a sharper sword than most men at court. Baela is everything Iris isn't supposed to want, dangerous, untouchable, and entirely irresistible.
With the realm quietly dividing between Queen Alicent and Princess Rhaenyra, Iris must walk a perilous line between loyalty, survival, and something that looks dangerously like freedom. But in a world built on fire and blood, even the smallest defiance can turn into a war.

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.

The second daughter of Corlys Velaryon and Rhaenys Targaryen, she was born with memories of another life - a life where she had seen on a TV Show some of the brutal war known as the Dance of the Dragons. Knowing the fate of Westeros, Vaelyra refuses to be a mere spectator in history.

Aemond Targaryen, the second son of Viserys Targaryen and Alicent Hightower.

Together, they forge an alliance that will shake Westeros to its core.

Between Dragons And Crowns
In a world where bloodlines are destiny and the throne is never truly secure, love is the most dangerous game of all. Jacaerys Velaryon, the steadfast heir of House Velaryon, is bound by duty, loyalty, and the weight of a kingdom's expectations. Baela Targaryen, fierce and independent, carries the fire of her dragon blood in her heart, unafraid to challenge tradition and make her own path. But when the brewing storm of civil war threatens to consume their families, their lives-and their hearts-are thrust into turmoil. Torn between their deepening love for each other and their unyielding loyalty to their bloodlines, Jacaerys and Baela must navigate treacherous alliances, shifting loyalties, and the ever-present shadow of the Iron Throne. In a kingdom where betrayal is as certain as the flames of dragonfire, the choices they make could alter the fate of the realm. As dragons soar, crowns clash, and power shifts beneath their feet, Jacaerys and Baela must decide if they will rise together or be torn apart by the very forces that bind them. The fate of their love-and of Westeros-lies between dragons and crowns.Complete
