Didn't you have a contemporary story with the Targaryens as a mob family? I distinctly remember reading this story: Viserys is the head of the Targaryen mob, and because he has mismanaged the wealth and made several bad decisions, tries to gain control of Rhaenyra's inheritance that Aemma left for her by marrying her off to Laenor Velaryon, so that he can cover his tracks. Rhaenyra discovers that Viserys had her mother killed, so she escapes to Daemon who convinces her to help him usurp Viserys as head of the family. Daemon has a son, Aemond who is 2 years old? Harwin Strong is Daemon's enforcer/best friend. Fast-paced drama. Daemon and Rhaenyra marry; she adopts Aemond. Daemon and Rhaenya also have a daughter, little Aemma. Instead of a golden dragon, Syrax is a Golden Retriever. They discover that Rhaenyra has a long-lost half-sister named Rhaelys, who has been secretly hidden in Dorne. More drama. HEA with Rhaelys and Harwin. I really liked this story. Sad that it's not available to read anymore.
