When Tywin Lannister approaches the king about a marriage between their two houses, he fully expects it to be between his daughter and the crown prince. However, when the king rejects that proposal, he goes one step further and gifts Tywin his unwanted daughter. Rhaela Targaryen is gentle. Too gentle and reminiscent of her mother. It's why her father deems her unworthy. However, she never expects to be the second wife of the Hand of the King. Forced into an unwanted marriage by a king's madness, Rhaela must step further into the political arena at the side of her new husband. Seeing a weapon that was cast aside, Tywin shapes his new bride into a political weapon. What happens as the couple finds themselves targets of a mad king? What happens when the fall of the dragons puts House Lannister in danger? Tywin and Rhaela will set out to ensure their legacy is protected, and the future of House Lannister all started with an unwanted bride.

Children of Dragons | Aemond Targaryen
"It had been a long time since Aemond had known real fear. So long that he couldn't even recognize the feeling when he came upon the man drowning his betrothed in the bath. That fear was replaced with anger. Rage. He had known rage. He knew it well enough to know what was to come next. Nothing could stop Aemond Targaryen as he tore the man from Aemma. Aemond did not spare the look of surprise on the man's face a second thought. His fist collided with the man's nose first. Then his cheekbone. Then his right eye. His nose. His left eye." ~ Aemma Velaryon is the eldest daughter of Rhaenyra Targaryen, the Black Queen. Aemond Targaryen is the youngest son of Alicent Hightower, the queen of the Greens. When they are arranged to be wed, a reluctant but reliant bond is forged. Can their love rise above the flames set alight by their parents? Or will the forces at work push them to opposite sides of an oncoming war? [fanfiction inspired by the House of the Dragon show]
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

How to Be a Husband
This is the prequel to the large plan of works that take the marvelous works of Mr. George R. R. Martin and turns them on their head. To see the plans for the entire works I have a description on my profile of the plan for the entire thing. "Cersei. She will be my wife. You are my sister. Anything that happened between us before will never happen again. I am loyal to her. You will always be my sister, but that is all you will ever be." "This was not the plan Jaime! You are mine! From birth! You were meant to follow me to King's Landing where you would protect me, and be with me, and love me!" "Yes. That was the plan. Past tense Cersei. What did you want me to do? Disobey father? For what? So I could go to King's Landing and follow your future husband around like a guard dog and wait around until you decided you wanted me? No. I want this. I want her. She is my future. I am hers." HIGHEST RANKING: #1 in #tyrionlannister 12/6/18 Also, PSA: The mature rating is just a safety precaution, as obviously this is a Game of Thrones fan fiction there will be strong language and possible sexual situations, however there will be no explicit writings. This is not a slow burn like I would like, simply because of the situation they are in, and it doesn't work that way sometimes.Complete
Bound by Fire and Fate ✔️
||Complete|| Vaelyra Velaryon was never meant to exist. 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. With her wit, ambition, and the advantage of foresight, she devises a daring plan: to claim the Iron Throne for herself. Her greatest ally? Aemond Targaryen, the second son of Viserys Targaryen and Alicent Hightower. A boy once mocked for not having a dragon, Aemond's destiny changed the night he claimed Vhagar, the mightiest living dragon in the realm. With Vaelyra whispering in his ear, shaping his ambitions, he becomes more than just the Greens' deadliest weapon-he becomes a king in the making. Together, they forge an alliance that will shake Westeros to its core. But as the Blacks and the Greens wage war, as betrayals and bloodshed mount, one question remains: can they outplay fate itself and seize the Iron Throne? Or will history find a way to right itself, no matter how much they fight against it? The game of dragons has begun. And this time, the board is changed.Complete![FIRE AND BLOOD | RHAEGAR TARGARYEN [REWRITE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/362044863-256-k63166.jpg)
FIRE AND BLOOD | RHAEGAR TARGARYEN [REWRITE]
[ REWRITTEN VERSION ] - original is still up and published. ____________________________ In 261 AC, Westeros shook with a thunderous roar as the moon turned blood red; the stars fell from the sky; and Princess Rhaella Targaryen brought forth her daughter. Accounts do differ, but if minstrels and mummers are to be believed, it is said the dead dragons of Old Valyria roared as one that great and dark night, and the gods, Old and New alike, held their breath as the coin was tossed... That night princess Naerys of house Targaryen came into the world. _____________ I do not own A Game of Thrones (if I did, a lot would be different) and all characters (except my own) belong to the wonderful George R R Martin, the real life Mad King for creating such a massive fantasy world, David Benioff and D B Weiss and HBO.
The White Flame
Visenya was born in silence, beneath shadows even dragonfire dared not reach. Her birth was a secret, kept by those who understood that some lives are not accidents - they are omens. Daughter of pure Valyrian blood, forged in a bond unspoken and unblessed, she came into the world with eyes like storms and fire beneath her skin. No one truly knew what she was. Not at first. But the flame knew. And when it stirred, it did not rise alone. With her came something older than crowns and thrones - a whisper of Old Valyria, reborn in flesh. She was never meant to rule but when her House stood on the edge of ruin, it was Visenya who burned brightest. She came to remind the realm that fire was never meant to kneel, and the blood of the dragon does not fade - It conquers. _______________________________________ ⚠️ Disclaimer Credits: This story is based on the world of A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.
