I Put a Spell on You

|warning|: dark elements, dubcon, possessiveness, bullying, and mention of death.

|pairing|: Dark!Ethan Wate x Reader

|note|: for some reason I can't put 7k in one page, so I splitting this fic into two parts. Enjoy and reblog as well as comment 😉.

It was cloudy today, like you predicted, and if your aunt was right, it was gonna rain soon. Hopefully, not at the end of class. You have to walk home, your aunt was away going to visit a sick relative in the next state and she took the only car that got you from and to school. You brought your umbrella, but your aunt requested, well more like, pleaded with you to take the school bus home instead of walking since the clouds looked "grayer than usual" today.

Any other time, you would have taken your aunt's warning to heart, but you had no other choice but to choose the latter. You couldn't get on the school bus even if you wanted to, your usual bullies will just block your way and throw you out like they did out through middle school, it was better for everybody including yourself that you just walk home in the rain.

You snapped back to reality when you felt a solid object hit you on the top of your head, you look away from the wide window that shows nothing but the school parking lot and ghe many park cars there. You heard snickering in the background as you look around for the object that hit you, before you could find it you heard someone clear their throat sharply making you look up at your teacher who stood with his arms crossed over his chest with an unamuse look on his face.

"Ms. Treadeau, is there anything happening outside that I should know about?" Mr. Fuller asked, leaning off his desk. Your eyes widened in panic at the realization that he caught you not paying attention again.

"N-no, Mr. Fuller." You replied, meekly sliding against your chair to sink into it and hoping for a vortex to take you away.

Mr. Fuller narrowed his eyes at you. You could see in his green eyes that he wanted to say something, something harsh and mean. Something he knew that could only make you feel even more shitty than you already felt, he hmm before he started walking down the row of desk towards you. You avert your eyes to your desk and waited for the other shoe to drop. It was quiet like everyone in the room just disappeared, and the only two people still here were him and you.

Once you glance up, you see him bending down beside you. You frown a bit before fixing your lips into a straight line and look away at he standing straight up. When he turned back around to walk back up to the board, you came to see that he had picked up an expo marker.

That must have been what he threw at you.

You unconsciously brought your hand up to touch the spot where you last felt the dull ping and rub it when Mr. Fuller turns around again. You snatch your hand down to your lap and look at him.

"Ms. Treadeau, how times did I have to stop my lesson to deal with your nonsense this year?" His question threw you off, and you stared at him with a faint frown. You let the question linger in the air for a few minutes before asking one of your own.

"...Is that rhetorical?"

You flinch when the class laughs, and you glance around, confused about what you said that could have been funny. As your eyes find your teacher again you could feel your heart drop to your stomach at the scowl that appeared on his face and how it made you wish you never opened your mouth in the first place, he gave a sharp look at the other students making them stifle their laughs behind smiles and knowing looks before he look back at me with a cold one.

"Just pay attention, Ms. Treadeau." He says as he opens the marker before turning to the whiteboard, "The last thing I want is to have to see your face again during the summer like last year." You look down to your desk embarrassed at Mr. Fuller's divulgence of your boring summer, he goes on to scribble on the board and back to ignoring you.

As you listen to him talk, you suddenly jolt forward in your seat.

"Oops, sorry." A familiar sickly sweet southern accent whispered, making you duck your head, praying that the girl behind you wouldn't get you in even bigger trouble than you already is in with your teacher.

Your body jolted again as Emily nudged her desk into the back of your chair again. You cringe when your pen falls to the floor. You look up just as Mr. Fuller turned his head over his shoulder to look at you. He gave you a sharp look, making you drop your head and him to turn around fully to scold you.

"What's going on back there?" He says, firmly sensing him looking straight at you as he said it.

"Oh, it's my fault, Mr. Fuller." Emily said.

You glance up to see Mr. Fuller narrowed his eyes from you to the girl behind you.

"Is that so, Ms. Asher?" Emily nodded with that kind smile. She always put on for the parents and the teachers.

"Yes, I asked ghost girl to move her desk up to give me some space for my legs," My shoulder tense when I felt her hand on them, "Isn't that right, darling." You didn't need to peek over your shoulder to see the malice in Emily's eyes or hear the disdain covered by her sweet voice because you knew better than to speak against Emily Asher. Gatlin's little darling.

Mr. Fuller looked at me as I looked back at him. He huffed, annoyed, and turned back to the board.

"Next time you interrupted my class, Ms. Treadeau. You're getting written up." You look at the back of his head with a look. You wanted to protest and say it wasn't your fault, but knew he wouldn't care, and he just write you up anyway.

So, you sit back in your seat and sulk, you never understood what you did wrong in another life to make not only your peers hate you but the adults of this town too.

🔮

You held onto the shaft and the handle of your umbrella tightly as the wind blew with heavy rain. You were lucky to get halfway home until it started pouring down. Your happy that your aunt was away, if she saw you come home all drench and soak to the bone, she'll have a heart attack and then grill you about why you didn't take the bus. You didn't want her to know about the bullying you reserve from Emily and her friends. You didn't need her worrying herself about you, not when she had important things to do like her job.

Your Aunt Amma was special, she is a clairvoyant, or a Seer from what she told you when you were little girl. You on the other hand was not special. You and Amma weren't blood related, she knew your parents before they died and took you in when no one else did.

But, that didn't stop Aunt Amma from teaching you about her world, or the talking about dark forces that hide in the shadows and corrupt good people.

A honk broke you out of your thoughts, and before you could even turn to see who it was you were drench from the water that flew up to splash on you as a silver mazda miata sped down the road ahead of you. You stood frozen on the side of the road in shock and horror, you couldn't believe that just happened, your soak clothes cling to you like second skin feeling it turn cold with every passing breeze. You didn't know how long you stood there, but once you heard another car coming down the road you shook out of your shock and look down the road.

When the car was starting to get closer you step forward as the dodge challenger came to slow down in front of you, you try to muster up a smile when the boy roll down his window.

"Hey, Bud. You okay?" Ethan ask as he glance up and down at you with a worried glint into his eyes.

"Yeah, I wasn't looking where I was going and got splash." You lied, Ethan's brow twitch.

"You need a ride?" He ask making you shake your head a little bit too quickly.

"No, no thats okay im almost home and I don't want to get your seats all wet or nun‐‐"

"There just seat, doll. They'll dry." You clasp your lips together at his words, he smiles at you and motions his head to the passenger door.

You smile gratefully at him before backing up and hurrying to the other side of the car, Ethan was quick to open the door for you making you close your umbrella before getting in. You thank him and put your umbrella next to your leg so it could lean against the car door, Ethan was already pulling off back onto the road when you put on your seatbelt.

"You know...you should have called me, I would have come and get ya, y'know." He glance at me before looking back at your road, you hmm not sure what to say he knows how you feel about asking people for things or help.

"You were with your dad, I didn't want to be a bother to y'all." Ethan shook his head.

"Y'know damn well you never been a bother to me or pops, your like a daughter to him." You smile at the thought, Mr. Wate was always kind to you and he never gave you any fuss when you came over with your aunt to play with Ethan and Link, "And besides dad has Lilian now, so you can ask me for a ride any time you want." He grins look overing at you before looking at the road again, you smile faintly at the offer before looking at the window.

Ethan has always been so giving and caring, it's one of the reasons you two stayed friends for so long, despite being from two different worlds. He was popular and loved by everyone, while you were a outcast and hated by most of the town. You truely think if it wasn't for Amma strong connection to the Wates's family, you probably never had any kind of conversation with the boy.

"Hey, bud." You look over at Ethan with a hmm, "Since it's Friday and Amma isn't home, you wanna hang out at yours?" He ask peeking over at you from the corner of his eye, you give a thoughtful look before shrugging.

"Yeah, why not we can start on that movie you wanted to watch last time," The corner of Ethan's mouth curve up a little in a little smile, "And you can call link to bring some snacks over." You finish looking away when you felt your phone vibrate in your tote bag, unknowingly to you, Ethan's smile falter at the mention of his bestfriend.

"L-Link? You want to invite him, I thought you hate him." You huff before typing in your response to your aunt.

"Correction. I hate his mother, link is all right...sometimes." You mumbled the last part.

"Okay, I guess I can...give him a call him." Ethan shrugged, you glance over at him sensing something wrong, but when you look at him he seems normal. You shook your head and turn it back out to the window to stare out at the trees that passed by.

🔮

When you fall asleep the last thing you remember was saying goodnight to Ethan as he made a makeshift bed on the floor next to your bed, but you were startle awake by a noise, as you finish rubbing your eyes the first thing you notice was Ethan's pallet was empty and he was no where in sight. The second was your closet door slightly ajar, you rub your eyes as you move the covers to get out of bed, you check your closet peeking inside to make sure everything was in order before closing it and leaving out of your room with the door open in your stead. You see the light downstairs was on, making you slowly go over and take the steps one at a time.

You look over at the living room to see it empty and dark, before going into the kitchen where the light was coming from. It was empty in there too, a weird feeling nestle its way into your gut making you walk out of the kitchen turning off the light when you pass to head down the hall back to the stairs. You stop at the end of the hall when you hear a toilet flush and water running, you stand next to the stairs as Ethan walks out of the bathroom. He looked at you surprise to see you up.

"Hey...did I wake you?" He ask coming towards me with tired eyes, you look him over before shaking your head.

"No," You said slowly looking back at his face, "I just woke up and saw you gone." Ethan smile at you.

"What? Did you missed me." He taunts making you roll your eyes.

"Whatever let's go back to bed, its early." Ethan chuckles as he was the first to move, he goes up ahead of you before you follow him.

You make it back to your room and closed the door behind you, you glance over at Ethan as he looks at the makeshift bed on the floor with frown.

"You know my offer still stands," You say as you cross over to your bed to take a seat, Ethan look at you with a look in eyes before it disappeared and a smile appear.

"What happened to Amma's no boys on your bed rule," He ask moving to take a seat next to you.

"That's only when you and link come over," You say moving to pick up his pillow from the floor and look at him when you pass it to him, "And besides, your like my brother. The rules don't really apply to you." You saw Ethan's cheek tic, but the smile on his face still remain.

"Of course." Was his only reply before he move his pillow behind him to lay it next to your own.

You settle in bed as Ethan climb behind you laying next to the wall, ethan's chest was to your back as he put a arm over your stomach, the action took you aback for a second before you brush the odd feeling off.

"Night, E." You murmur.

You heard him hum as his nose rub against the back of your neck causing goosebumps to erupte on your skin, you opened your eyes and side eyed him, you you felt his lips making you squirm a bit forward to put some space between you two but Ethan's arm brought you back to his chest and let out a drone that sounded close fo a purr.

"Hmmm, You smell nice." You furrow your brows at his words.

"T...Thank you?"

He only hum and held you to him firmly, he brought his lower half flash against you and since he was only wearing boxers you could feel something hard against your back.

"Night, babe." Ethan sigh serene before kiss your neck unexpectedly.

You couldn't help but stare in the dark in shock at everything that just happening, Ethan sudden change in behavior was something unexpected. Or maybe your overthinking, maybe Ethan is just cold, it is a bit chilling in here, he be better by morning.

🔮

You were putting your textbook in your bag when Ethan saunter over to you with a grin on his face, every since he spent the weekend over your house, he been acting really weird towards you. Rather than going back to being himself like you expected, he has continued on with this new display of attention.

"Hey, darling." He greeted as he got closer.

Your lips twitch at the nickname before smiling in response and put the strap of your bag on your shoulder.

You were taken by surprise when Ethan wrapped his arms around your shoulder pulling you into a hug, you gasp when he squeeze you before kissing the side of your head. He pull back at bit movimg his hands to rest on your hips, he looks down at me with this glimmer in his eye that has been you shuffling back. Ethan frown a bit at your retreat before swiping it away, and putting his hands in his jean pockets.

"Hey, whats up?" You ask when Ethan stood quiet in front of you, he looks at you and smile as if what he did five seconds ago wasn't out of the ordinary.

"Nothin, just thought I walk you to class that's all." He shrug his shoulders.

Your mouth form 'o' as a barely audible "oh" pass through your lips, he smirks as you close your locker. When you come to stand beside him, he surprise you can when he wrap a arm around your shoulder pulling you close to his side. You glance around as some student that linger in the halls glance over at you and Ethan with weird looks, you move slightly to the side to put some space between you two, only for Ethan's arm to pull you back to his side.

You glance up at him only to find him with a faint smirk on his lips as he looks ahead, you look back at everyone else to see a trio of girls looking at us as they whispered to one another. One of the girls you recognized was friends with Emily, the red haired girl smirk evilly as she took out her phone. You couldn't see what she did next as Ethan turn you down a corner, but you know it isn't good and you have no doubt that Emily was going to bull over everyone to get to you.

"Hey, Ethan...Ar-Are you okay?" You look at him with concern eitch into your features, he furrow his brows confused.

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" He smiles.

"Well..." You pause when you felt the back of ethan's hand brush against one of your breast, making your brain shortcut a moment before continuing, "...y-you just been acting kinda...touchy lately." Ethan flicks his eyes up from where they were looking to look at you, he stops you as you both stood in the hall, he gives you this puzzled look as if he didn't know what you were talking about.

"I don't know what you mean."

You huff at him in disbelief, how does he not know he was being weird.

"Really, you were just doing it like five seconds ago," he frown before shaking his head before stopping.

"Wait, you mean...?" He points down the hall, you nod your head with look that said obviously, making Ethan laugh out loud causing you to frown, "...wow, sorry I'm not laughing at you it just..." he chuckles a little more as you look at him with a look, when Ethan saw you weren't laughing with him his chuckle died in his throat and his whole demeanor change, "...so what you don't like my hugs anymore, I always hug you." He states with arms crossed over his chest, your mouth drop open a bit at the coldness in his tone.

"Yeah, no, I-I know. It just you never hug me at school and people are staring--"

"So, I don't care what they think and neither should you, they all spineless nobodies. "

"Ethan!" You exclaimed coming close before glancing around to make sure nobody heard him, you look back him to find him staring at you.

The way he was looking at you stirr something inside you that you haven't felt since middle school, Ethan step closer and without a second thought brought his hand up to run his fingers down the side of your neck causing your body to light up with goosebumps like that night. Suddenly, it was hard to focus and a woodsy musk occupied your senses making you sway a bit as your mind felt so cloudy and your chest felt warm.

But, you regain yourself when the warning bell rang signaling for third period, you move back realizing how close Ethan's face was to yours. He frown in disappointment at your retreat yet again, causing a soft scowl to appear on his features.

"You shouldn't talk about them like that, Ethan. They're your friends." Ethan scoff with a shake of his head looking away.

"Those people are not my friends, why would I be friends with people who treat you so horribly for no reason." His words caused you pause as you never heart so much anger in Ethan's voice so much, he was never easy to anger he was always so calm and collected.

"You knew them since you were kids–"

"So. They talk bad about you all the time, they always have. Even though you been in this town since you were 7, so why do you care about their feelings. When they don't give two shits about yours?" He snapped, you didn't have a answer, well you did, but you were too speechless to say anything after his outburst.

"I...I have to get to class." You lower your head and walk around him as you pull the strap of your bag further up your shoulder.

You felt a tug on your sleeve making you look at Ethan as he look at you in distress.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to get angry at you, I wasn't trying to, I just hate how they treat you." Ethan let's go of your sleeve to clench his hands at his side, you rub your arm at the sincerity of his voice, "Please tell me we are okay, that your not mad at me." You frown at Ethan as he looks at you on the verge of tears, you shake your head coming close to touch is hand.

"We're fine. I'm not mad, I'm promise."

Ethan's eyes flicker between your own before he seem to relax at bit, you eye him and took your hand away from his.

"I have to go before I late." You say making Ethan look at you before he looks over at your classroom door.

"Oh, yeah, of course." He chuckles nervously and move to fidget with the straps of his bookbag, "I'll see you...later?" He ask as he walk you to the door of your classroom, you gave hum a faint smile before nodding, Ethan smiles and nod his head at you as you back up and walk into class.

As the final bell rung, Mr. Fuller glance at you as you away from his door towards him.

"Your late, Ms. Treadeau. I have to write you up for that." Mr. Fuller says as he stops you in your track, you look up at him with parted life in disbelief and before you could protest or defend yourself, he spoke up again, "Do you wanna add a detention to that?" He challenged with a look telling her to think wisely by her next words.

You frown and shook your head, you lower your head and went to your seat.

"Okay, class let's start. Hopefully we can get through a lesson without being interrupted this time." Mr. Fuller look pointly over at you, making you sink into your desk with a defeated look.

Keep Me Near Your Heart XVII

After looking for Aemond in his chamber, Jaenara makes her way towards her own in a haste. She didn't know what she was going to say to him, or explain how her brother knew about Ser Krey, all she hope was that he wouldn't be mad at her even through he should. She told him she ended things with Krey only to turn around and sleep with him again, it was ironic she knows but the old aemond would have deserve to be embarrassed like that. Not this man who done nothing but coddle her and her unborn son, she couldn't get the crush look on Aemond's face out of her head.

Jaenara burst through her door scaring Aemond from his lean over position as he sat on the edge of the bed.

"Aemond." Jaenara breathe out closing the door behind before making her way towards her husband, Aemond averted his gaze from her as he stood, "Aemond, I'm so sorry that that happened." she started with a apologic look.

"Don't be." He replied making her frown, he looks at her with a small smile, "In a way we are even now, we can finally put the past behind us, right." Jaenara was speechless, she didn't expect him to be so docile.

"Aemond, I think we should talk–" Aemond moves away from her before could finish her sentence, he startes unbuttoned his vest.

"Why? There's no need. I presume you ended things with him again, yes?" He turns to look at me as he shed his vest, jaenara nod dumbly making him smile widen a bit, "See no need to talk about it, I'm moving on, your moving on, together once our son comes we all can put this behind us and become a family." He said turning away yet again as he take off his shirt and fold it before setting it on the table.

"Aemond...are you alright?" She asked dumbly, it is obvious he isn't okay but she had to ask anyway, Aemond look towards her with an reassure look as he makes his way towards her.

"Of course, my love." Jaenara eyed him as his hands brush along her arms.

"You don't seem alright, husband." Aemond looks from watching himself caress her arm to her face, jaenara look at her husband even more uncertain about his wellbeing as he chuckle and shook his head.

"Maybe, your right...I am a bit tired, the dinner took a lot outta me." He says, "Let me release you from this gown, and we can just...cuddle tonight, how does that sound." Jaenara squint looking him in the eye, it was obvious he was going through something but wasn't ready to acknowledge it yet.

"Okay." She defeated, Aemond grins in triumph making jaenara turn around and let aemond loosen the strings in the back of her gown.

The gown sagged against her before falling off her shoulders, Aemond carefully pulled the gown passed her bump and hips before making it fall to the floor leaving her in her chemise. Aemond helps her in bed before he went around the room to blow out the candles leaving the only light from the fireplace to help him see around the room, Aemond got under the covers laying on his side with his chest to jaenara's back. His arm was thrown over her hip so his hand can rub his wife's belly, jaenara laid there frozen with no idea what was happening to Aemond.

"Goodnight, husband." She finally said after laying in timid silence for moment, Aemond hummed moving his face to bury into her neck as he held her to him.

"Goodnight, my love." He mumbled as jaenara laid awake looking at the wall in deep thought.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」

It was mid-afternoon when Jaenara and Aemond arrived in the throne room, a servant came to them in the early morning to tell them that the king requested their appearance in the throne room. Aemond and Jaenara shared a confused look once the servant left, they were both confuse to know what Viserys wanted to speak to them about. Jaenara couldn't help but be scared and nervous, the thought of what happened during dinner, she feared that her grandsire would reprimand her for her infidelity.

She voice her concern to Aemond, he still has yet to talk about it with her, but nonetheless he promised her that he would stand by her and speak up for her if the king decided to punish her. Jaenara couldn't help but feel grateful for Aemond, she truely hope that nothing happens, Krey didn't deserve to be punish for loving her. As she thinks about him, she hasn't seen him since her mother caught him in her chamber, a dread nestle in her chest that maybe something already happened to him.

Jaenara had to shake her head at such thoughts, she didn't need to be getting emotional before seeing her grandsire. She needed a clear and level head, if she was going to survive this meeting.

You can imagine her surprise when she got there to find that they weren't the only ones called into the throne room, Rhaelle and Daemon was there along with Rhaenyra and Jacerys, the couple were far away from the mother and son, jaenara got the sense that they were still angry with their wife and step-son actions from the dinner party. Alicent was also there standing close to the throne with her father, if looks could kill jaenara would have been dead the moment she walk in. Alicent and Otto glared at the young princess with a smug look, which if you know means something isn't right and that this meeting was going to not be in her favor.

Hand to hand, Jaenara and Aemond stopped in the middle of the room, they bowed to their king. Viserys watch them with an neutral look, he didn't look angry or bothered, he seems rather calm which made Jaenara feel a little at ease.

"I wish to speak with my family alone." Viserys started turn to his sworn sword, the knight gave a swift nod before beckoning his knights to follow.

Jaenara glance at Aemond as he did the same to her, they look at the king again as the doors closed leaving the family to their own devices. It was quiet, so quiet that jaenara could hear the scatter of rats in the walls, jaenara's eyes wondered away from her grandsire as they focus on the carvings on the pillars.

The sound of her name being called made jaenara snap her head back to her grandfather, "...is there something you wish to say?" He asked, jaenara swallow and glance around, she look at her husband who gave her a reassuring smile, she let out a deep breathe before she look at her grandsire.

"Yes," She answer letting go of Aemond's hand to step forward, "I wish to apologize to you...to all of you for my actions, I know my infidelity disappointed you grandfather," She look up at him with misty eyes, "And you auntie," she looks at rhaelle, the woman gives the young girl a sad smile and a look that told her she knows and it was okay, Jaenara looks back Viserys, "What I did can never be forgiven even through my husband forgave me," Aemond gives her a small smile when she looks back at him, "But, I am willing to serve any punishment that you see fit for my actions, but before you do you must know that I never meant to hurt Aemond–"

"But, yet you did." Alicent chimed making Jaenara glance her way before looking back at her grandsire.

"Aemond and I don't have the perfect marriage, in the beginning it was very...rough for me, he hurt me in ways that..." Jaenara pause, rhaelle narrow her eyes at her neice, "... all i can say is along the way deep down I wanted to hurt him right back, maybe even more." Jaenara confessed making the king peer at her in thought, "But, I had a lapse in judgment and I am dealing with the consequences, Aemond and I have rekindle, all we wish to do is move on with our child." Alicent scoff at the mention of the babe, jaenara and aemond look over at her as she stepped forward.

"You mean your bastard." Alicent quipped.

"Mother." Aemond growled as he gives her a look that makes Alicent glare at her son.

"How you can you be okay with is, Aemond. Have I raise you with no sense, why are you speaking up for this who–" Alicent chastised.

"Watch yourself, mother." Aemond snapped, numerous of wide eyes were on him, Alicent look at her son in shock, "That is my wife your speaking about." Jaenara glance between the mother and son in distress, this was not what she hope for.

"Aemond." She said taken back, Aemond step close to stand by his wife's side, "You can't be serious about taking her side over mine."

"There's no sides to take, mother. Jaenara is carrying my child, period." He said firmly making his mother let out a breathe of disbelief, Otto stood behind his daughter shaking his head with a look of disgust.

"How do you know the child is yours, we do not know how long the princess has been taken to bed by this knight." Otto accused glance at the king before looking at his grandson, "Can you truely say that that child is yours–"

"Yes." Aemond says without hesitation, "I can, he is mine and I will continue to say it until my last breathe. The child is mine." Otto stare at his grandson in a mixture of emotions, Aemond raise a brow at his grandsire making the older man purse his lips and look away from him.

"I think I heard enough." Viserys finally says making everyone look at him, he looks at Jaenara as he speaks, "As I sit here and watch you, all I can think is how I failed you in so many ways..." Jaenara looked at him shocked, "...your aunt warned me and I didn't listen, no, I didn't care and I am sorry for that, my child." Viserys gives a regretful look, "After what concor nights ago, I converse with my hand and dear wife on the matter..." Jaenara glance over at Alicent and Otto to see them with their head raise high with smirks, "...so, I took it upon my myself to send Ser Krey away."

It felt like everyone eyes were on Jaenara as the air left the room, Jaenara stood frozen feeling a bit dizzy at her grandsire words. But, she hide it, she hid the sadness and the fear that swirl in her heart.

"To the wall?" Rhaelle asked with a frown, Jaenara didn't glance at her aunt as she stood to stare ahead at her king.

"No, I sent him back home to the Vale, where he will do his duty and become Lord of Stonemount." Viserys looks away from Rhaelle to Jaenara, "Where he will be married off to Annalyse Royce, and hopefully do his father proud and continue on his legacy." Viserys study his granddaughters face, but Jaenara held her emotions in staring at him with a blank look.

"What of the princess and her child, husband." Alicent asked making Jaenara and Viserys look at her, "Will her infidelity go unpunish as well?" Viserys gives a small frown.

"The girl made a mistake, Alicent." The Queen press her lips together in anger, "...just like you did when you laid with Baelor." Both Jaenara and Aemond eyes widen in shock as they turn look at Alicent, The Queen stood there with a look of shock and horror at her husband's words, "I never blame you or was angry with you when you fell pregnant with his son, I knew you had a lapse in judgment and baelor was just a silly boy that wanted nothing more than to get back at me for what I put his mother through." Jaenara glance over at Rhaelle, who was just as shock not expecting the king to sprout those words in front of others.

"I...I.." Alicent was flabbergasted as she looks around before clasping her mouth shut and bowing her head in embarrassment.

"Jacerys." Viserys called making Jace perk up with wide eyes as he look up to his grandfather, "You are the one who started all this mess, I think it is only fair you should be the one to apologize to your sister and uncle." Rhaenyra mouth fall open in shock.

"But, father, he shouldnt have to apologize for something so miniture." Rhaenyra started as she step forward, viserys shift in his chair and focus his gaze on his eldest daughter.

"Was it not him who told Jaenara that she couldn't name her child after her father?" Viserys ask.

"Yes, but–"

"Was it not him that called her child, your grandchild, his soon to be neice or nephew a bastard unprovoked?" Rhaenyra swallow at her father questioning, "Was it not him that brought Ser Krey into this in the first place, my daughter? While you stood aside and allow him to slander your daughter's name." Viserys used his sword to help him stand up, Rhaenyra looks down like a kick dog when her father's tone became firm, "I ask you a question, Rhaenyra, and I expect you to look at me when you answer." Rhaenyra's throat contract before she lifted up her head to see her father limping down the steps.

"Yes, my king." She finally answered in a small voice.

Jaenara and Aemond move out the way as Viaerys walk pass them to stand and look towards his daughter and grandson.

"I have turn a blind eye to many things over the years, Rhaenyra." He huffed, "All because you are my daughter, but I will no longer turn a blind eye to your daughter's mistreatment any longer." He states firmly with a stern look, Rhaenyra shuffle in her feet in one place like a child being scolded.

"Yes, father." She answered with hint of dismay, Viserys narrow his eyes at his daughter and stepped forward again catching her attention.

"You should be thanking the gods Rhaenyra that I'm not making you get on your knees in beg for that child's forgiveness." He chided making his daughter frown as she shrinks, "But, since you have so much pride and I have no energy to go back and forth with you, I will leave you be for now but do expect another talk to come your way once this is over. Do you understand Me?" Rhaenyra nodded her meekly, Viserys hmmed before turning towards his grandson, "Don't you have something to say, boy." Jace looks at his mother before looking at his grandsire, he bow his head and stepped forward going to Jaenara and Aemond.

He look at them as Jaenara stare at him with an uncomfortable expression, Aemond held a small smirk as he watch his nephew look gather the courage to speech.

"I'm...I'm sorry for what I said the other night, It was stupid and hurtful, I didn't mean it. Any of it. Like you said I was drunk." Jacerys couldn't look his sister in the eye as he spoke, neither could jaenara, she never thought in her many years of living that her grandfather would talk down to his daughter and make her brother apologize.

"It's okay, jacerys. Thank you." He flick his eyes up to contact with her own, she saw the anger and dismay that swirl around them.

"Now, let's put this all to rest and move on, I would rather not have celebration end on a sour note," The kings says as he walks away, Otto follows suit with an unsatisfied look.

Jacerys and Rhaenyra was quick to leave as well, probably to go lick their wounds, leaving only Alicent, Aemond, Jaenara, Rhaelle and Daemon in the throne room.

"Aemond." The prince and the princess turn to look at their uncle coming their way, Aemond swallow before raising his head with a cool look, "Let's take a walk." Daemon says firmly before turning to walk away, Aemond glance at his wife slighlty worried, but gave him a small reassuring smile.

Jaenara squeeze his arm, before letting him go, Aemond followed quickly after him leaving three in the hall. Jaenara look over at her aunt standing off to the side looking at her, just as jaenara made her way towards her, Alicent move to block making jaenara look at the older woman with a raise brow.

"You may have trick my son into caring for that bastard in your belly, but do not celebrate too soon. He will see you for what you truely are and he will get rid of you." She scowled, a small smile etch it's way on to her lips making Alicent look like she was about to combust.

"I doubt that, my queen." Jaenara resorted back before shouldering pass her towards her aunt, Alicent growl before stalking out of the throne room.

Rhaelle met her neice halfway before walking towards the doors, "She doesn't look happy, what did you say to her." Rhaelle asked curious.

"Just something she knows that is true." Jaenara turn her head to give a small smile, rhaelle nod her head feeling that that is all she going to get from the young princess, "Should I be worried that Daemon wanted to talk to Aemond." She asked, rhaelle chuckle before shaking her head.

"Only a little bit, your uncle is pretty unpredictable." Rhaelle answered.

"And yet you always know what his about to do." Rhaelle smile fondly as they stop outside in the hall.

"Yes, well when you been marry to someone as long as I have you begun to see a pattern with them." Jaenara hummed with a thoughtful look, rhaelle notice and reach up to move a curl behind her niece's ear.

"Do you wish to talk about it?" Rhaelle asked with a sympathetic look, jaenara grin a bit before shaking her head.

"There's nothing to talk about, Aemond and I moving pass it."

"I wasn't talking about Aemond." Jaenara looks at her aunt, her eyes flicker between her aunt before looking away.

"His nothing to talk about, his in the past." Jaenara says solemnly, Rhaelle sighs grabbing jaenara's aem to pull the girl to her.

She wrapped the young princess in a hug, jaenara stood there for a moment before she wrap her arms around her aunt's waist. Why couldn't her mother be like rhaelle, she thought, why couldn't she love her like rhaelle.

"If ever need to talk I'm always here, my dear." Jaenara nod rubbing her face against rhaelle's shoulder as she close her eyes, letting herself feel the love and care that she never got from her mother in the hug.

Rhaelle held her tight knowing the younger princess needed it more than ever.

Keep Me Near Your Heart XVI

Jaenara stood fidgeting as she waited outside the front door with her husband, enith and ser krey were behind her while daeron was on her other side and aemond was holding her hand next to her.

Today was the day, her family was arriving soon to celebrate the birth of her child. Jaenara was anxious and excited, her emotions has been all over the place as she and enith with a little help from Alicent put everything together to welcome home her family. She been worrying non stop, she started praying and hopes that her husband and brothers wouldn't get into another fight like the last time they seen each other. That's the last thing she needs, another reason for a bigger rift to come between our families.

The sound of horses and carriage pulled jaenara out of her thought, she pulled her teeth between her lips, she clench and unclench her fist feeling suddenly scared. A gentle brush against her back made her swallow, soon another brush against her vacant hand, she didn't look down or turn to know who was doing it. Jaenara felt herself feeling little bit better with Krey close to her, as the days go by her belly becomes bigger and her mind starts to get stuck on one thing as well as her body.

She knows she was the one to break it off with Ser Krey for the safety of their child, but she felt a tinge of gulit when she started up her affair with him again. She didn't feel gulity for cheating on Aemond, no but she did feel a bit bad just because they got to a point in their relationship that they can be friends...for now anyways, the reason she felt gulity was because she didn't feel like she deserve him. She was worn and ruin, while he was still this pure and kind soul, she didn't think she deserve a man like Krey. He didn't deserve a woman like her, she felt like she was only using him for his love because she never got that from Aemond. She fears that the feelings she feeling for him is only temporary, shes afraid that if he dies then she end up like her mother.

Bitter and hateful. She didn't want her child to go through what she did, she always promised herself she be a better mother than her own mother.

As much as she tries to stay away from him, the more she craves him. She couldn't go a day without wishing he was there next to her, talking about his day and laying next to her while they read in sweet comfortable silence. Soon, It grew worse as it spilled into her and Aemond's time together, sex between her and her husband was only physical on her part, but ever since Krey has invaded her mind all she could imagine was Krey on top of her instead, the amount of times she had to bite down on on her fist to keep from screaming Krey's name rather than Aemond was getting her dangerously close to slipping up one day. Krey did things that made her melt in his hands, if Aemond try half the things he did he wouldn't come close on making her feel the way Krey made her feel.

"Here they come." Enith's soft voice peirce through the air making jaenara snap out of her thoughts.

Jaenara let out a shaking breathe as she watch the single carriage make its way through the gates, a gentle squeeze came from her left, she glance at Aemond as he stood like a statue next to her. She cleared her throat and squeeze his hand back, she look ahead plastering on a smile as she mentally prepare to face her mother and brothers after so long.

She swallow down the lump in her throat when the carriage stopped in front of them, she let go of Aemond's hand before carefully walking down the steps with him following behind.

Once the door opened, jaenara's worries slowly shifted to relief and confusion when she saw Gaela and Gaemon stepping out with their mother right behind them.

"Aunt Rhaelle?" Rhaelle looks at Jaenara taken back before a smile spread across her face.

"Sweet Jaenara."

Jaenara beams as she rush over to her aunt and wrapped her in a hug, a surprise sound came from rhaelle at the girl's sudden action. Rhaelle wrapped her arms around her neice after a second of beijg caught off guard, she gave her a good squeeze before they let go of each, jaenara took rhaelle in and she still looks the same as the last time Jaenara saw her.

"Oh, jae, look at you." Rhaelle gush as she holds the girl at arms length, "Your glowing." Rhaelle looks back up at her with a sweet smile.

Jaenara glance down shyly as she move her hand to rest on her belly.

"Thank you, auntie. Your words are too kind." Rhaelle smile back as she take in jaenara, she couldn't believe that her neice is carrying a child.

"Mama," Gaela whines pulling at her mofher's skirt, both jaenara and rhaelle turn to the little girl.

"Oh, I'm sorry, darling. I almost forgot." Rhaelle says wrapping her arm around gaela and gaemon pulling them close to her as she looks at jaenara, "We had a long ride, so the children are a bit cranky." She chuckle.

"It's fine. I had the servants ready your room before you came, so you can just go right up." Jaenara smiled kindly at the her cousins before looking at her aunt, rhaelle nod her head before patting her children's back making them walk ahead as jaenara and rhaelle follow.

"Thank you, I have no doubt the others will like to rest before dinner."

Rhaelle bow her head at Aemond and Daeron once they got at the top of the steps, before she turn her attention back to jaenara when she spoke up.

"Where is the others?" Jaenara asked as they walk inside.

"Oh, they will be here soon, some more than others. Alys and Baelon are in Maegonsæte, they will be traveling with their brothers and sister. They'll probably be here by morrow afternoon." Jaenara nodded her head listening before willing here to ask the question she been wondering since she saw rhaelle.

"And will my mother be joining us soon?" Rhaelle glance at jaenara before nodding her slowly.

"...yes, she was quite excited when she found out she was going to be a grandmother soon." Jaenara stare at her aunt knowing she was lying.

"Hmm...so happy to hear that." She said with a slight edge to her voice, rhaelle gives a timid smile as she glance at her neice, before they continue up the staircase.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」

Jaenara was laying on the coach, one hand rubbing her stomach while the other was being held by her lover. The rest of her family arrived just days ago, and the moment everyone was under the same roof the tension between the family has become unbearable. Every dinner or breakfast was spent quiet, jaenara announce to her cousins and brothers about being on their best behavior and the same went with rhaelle's grandchildren. She already had the long talk with Aemond about not starting anything with her brothers, even had to talk to Aegon about starting stuff just to see chaos. All jaenara wanted was a stress less few days before her baby came, she couldn't stress that enough to her aunt rhaelle how she needed everything to be cordial between everyone.

Soft lips peck the side of jaenara's head bringing her back to the present, she blinks and shift her head when she felt the same lips brush against her ear.

"What are you thinking about, my lady." Ser Krey ask making jaenara sigh.

"Nothing of importance, darling. Just my family..." she mumbled. Ser Krey hummed.

"Do you want to talk about it." Jaenara pause for a moment thinking before shaking her head.

"No...I rather not think about my family and their drama." She said moving to look up at her knight with a small smile, "What I would rather do is have you make me forget," Ser Krey smirks down at her with as she gives him a knowing look, "Do you think you can do that for me, my love." She purred making Ser Krey smile widen.

"For you princess, yes." He said low before he lean down slowly to press his lips to hers.

Jaenara smiled into the kiss, ser krey shift his body on the coach so he could be laying on his side with Jaenara against the cushions. Jaenara moan as Krey swipe his tongue against her bottom lip before biting it gently, jaenara hook her leg over Krey's hip bringing him closer as they kiss and caress each other. Jaenara whimper when Krey's hand found its way under her gown and his fingers brush against her thigh as they slowly ascend.

A knock at the door made the two pull away quickly, they look at each other with confuse and worried looks. Jaenara had a ritual ever since she moved into her new chamber, first she get ready and visit the orphans in the morning, spend a hour or two there before having agonizing tea with alicent and her ladies in waiting in the garden, after that she spend some time with either Aemond in the library or Helaena in her chambers. But, ever since she announced she was pregnant, Aemond hadn't allow her alone time in months, he was always there, waiting and watching her like a hawk. It was beginning to get frustrating and suffocating, it wasn't until the arrival of her family did he take a step back and give her some space.

She guessed since her female cousins and aunt was always around, Aemond felt reassure about omy wellbeing, but jaenara didn't feel the same with her family now living under one roof it was even harder for her to make time for herself. It was Krey's idea to meet in her old chamber when she had a chance of freedom, they would spend a few minute alone neither talking about their day or the baby or just lay in each other others.

The banging made Jaenara flinch as she snap back into the present, she sits up and moves over Krey, she look over her shoulder and put her finger to her lip before going to the door.

"Mother." Jaenara said shock once she came face to face with her mother, Rhaenyra smiled at her daughter, "What are you doing here? D-Did Aunt Rhaelle send you to come get me?" Jaenara asked as she kept the door slightly ajar, her body was blocking the view to the sitting area and the rest of the room.

Rhaenyra let out a soft hummed, "No, your Aunt didn't send me, I just wanted to see how you are. We havent spoken since I arrived, my child." Rhaenyra pouts as she move her hands to fold over her stomach, "It feels like you are avoiding me, my little seastar." A look of unease spread across jaenara's feature at her mother's little nickname, never in her entire life did she ever hear her mother call her out of her name that wasn't pleasant.

"Ummm..." Jaenara didn't know what to saw to her mother.

"Maybe, this is good time as any to catch up," Her mother hand shot up to open the door wider, but jaenara was quick to snap out of her shock and keep it firmly in place.

"Can this not wait, mother." Rhaenyra look at her daughter with a tilt in her head and narrow eyes, "...I'm just really want to be alone right now, before I have to go back out there and listen to everyone talk about the baby--"

"Do you think I got a moment of peace when you and your brothers were born, jaenara" The young princess clasp her mouth shut as she stare at her mother dumbfounded, "No. I had to take care of you all without complaint because that is what a mother suppose to do‐‐"

"But, mother--"

"Do not interrupted me, Jaenara!" The future queen snapped, a edge in her voice sent jaenara back making her purse her lips and dip her chin, Rhaenyra huffed, "It seems like your time here have made you forget your manners," Rhaenyra shook her head with hint if annoyance.

"Sorry, mother." Jaenara says quiet.

"Do not fret about it, you know how I hate when you fret." Jaenara swallow and nodded her head, Rhaenyra cleared her voice, "So, can I come in, maybe we can talk over some tea." Jaenara looked at her mother slightly alarm and fearful as Krey was still in the room.

"Uh, maybe we can have some tea outside, it a beautiful day out." Jaenara suggested.

"Too hot for my liking." She dismissed.

Jaenara was too slow to stop her as her mother push passed her and the door, "Mother, wait!" Jaenara nearly shouted turning around only to be meet with a empty room, she furrow her brows as she glance around for Krey but he was no where to be seen.

"What has gotten into you, Jaenara." Rhaenyra says, jaenara glance at the chamber door to see it ajar, "Jaenara, I am speaking to you." Her mother scolded, jaenara look back to her mother to see her with a raise brow.

"I-I'm sorry I just..." Jaenara glance over to the door before back at her mother, "I'm sorry mother...the baby is making me lose all my sense." Jaenara reply with a weak chuckle, rhaenyra narrow her eyes at her again before humming and turning on her heels.

"So, father gave you the solar...how long did you live here?" Her mother ask as she looks around, Jaenara steps away from the door as she watch her mother nervously.

"Almost a year." Rhaenyra hummed again before looking at her.

"It's quite a place, why did you leave." Rhaenyra asked curious, jaenara move her hands to her stomach feeling suddenly sad.

"After the lost of my daughter it was...too painful to stay." Jaenara said honestly, the whole family already knew no thanks to Alicent slipped tongue.

"Hmmm." Rhaenyra let out the sound before glancing away from her daughter, "Is that you old chambers." She ask as she walk towards the double doors, jaenara was quick to move and plant her selling front keeping her mother from going inside.

"Yes, it is. Mother, why don't we sit down. I can call on a servant to bring us tea and we can finally catch like you wanted." Jaenara babbled as her hand went to the handle and kept the door closed, Rhaenyra gives her daughter a look that made jaenara swallow and shrink.

"If you don't want my company, jaenara. You can just say that..." Jaenara mouth fall open in shock.

"M-Mother that is not what this is--" Jaenara started.

"Don't try to spare my feelings, child. I know when I am not wanted." Rhaenyra spat making jaenara drop her shoulders with a look.

"I'm not, mommy. I just...it's the room it brings back too many bad memories, let's just go back to my chamber and talk." Rhaenyra eye her daughter as jaenara stare at her with pleading eyes.

"...fine." Jaenara let out a breathe once her mother back was turn, she step away from the door and follow her mother.

They weren't five steps from the door when they heard a clatter from the room, Jaenara was ahead as her mother was just a step behind her.

"What was that." Rhaenyra ask as she stop and turn to look at the double doors.

"It's probably nothing–" Rhaenyra didn't wait for her daughter to finish as she stalk over to the door.

Jaenara was right behind but she wasn't fast enough as her mother threw open the doors, Jaenara stop in the threshold to see her mother inside the room looking at Krey as he stood looking at her in a mixture of shock and fear.

"Mother." Jaenara called softly scared of what her mother next move will be, "M-Mother." She called again with a trembling voice, Rhaenyra slowly turn to look at her daughter, no emotions were present as she stare at Jaenara.

Jaenara move from the doorway with a trembling form, "Mommy, I-I can explain...if you just let me–" Rhaenyra didn't say a word as she walk towards her daughter and swung her hand to slap her daughter's cheek, Jaenara let out a painful yelp as the slap made her head turn.

Jaenara's hand flew up to hold her throbbing check, she look at her mother with tears in her eyes as her mother look back at her with a look of anger.

"I expected more from you, jaenara." Rhaenyra chided glaring, "...you disgust me and I will be sure to tell your aunt about this...amour..." She huff moving her hand, jaenara couldn't do anything but watch with fallen tears, "Your father would be disappointed in how you turn out if he was still alive." Jaenara dip her shaking chin as she look down in shame.

"...I'm sorry," Jaenara whispered.

Rhaenyra shook her head with a eyeroll and step around her daughter, Jaenara sniffle as she lean against the wall, she covered her mouth once the door to the solar slam behind her mother leaving the two lovers in a air of concern and fear.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」

The dinning hall was lively as my family talk to one another, it was surprising and I was happy to see that cousins who despised each other were having a civil conversation. For once it was nice to see us being a family rather than ill mannered strangers, even Aegon and Aemond are getting along, and what made it better was that it was a private dinner for only family only servants and two guards were there.

I smile at Alys as she talk about her adventures in Essos, I lean on my hand fascinated with her stories, I was so happy that she got to voyage the world. It was her dream and she was living it, even through there was a small piece of me that was envious of her freedom, but my love for her out weigh that. I had long come to terms about my new life here with Aemond, sad as it may seems, but I couldn't hold on to that anger from the past. I will always remember what he put me through, but I won't allow that to control my future with my child.

I move my thumb to rub the back of Aemond's hand, if I want my child to grow up with a loving father, I must focus on being the wife aemond thinks I been being. I glance over at my mother who was eating in silence between lucerys and jacerys, it been days since my mother discovered my affair, I was ashame of myself and I cried for days in fear that she tell my aunt and uncle. I already had one mother who was disappointed, i couldn't imagine losing rhaelle of all people just because I couldn't control my urges.

I ended my affair with Krey once again three days after the incident, and it hurt just as hard like the first time. I will always love Addam and he will always love me, and doing this will protect our child. I did the right thing, didn't I?

"Jaenara..." Aemond called softly catching my attention just as Alyaena got her attention pulled to Maekar, Aemond lean in making me do the same as he whispered in my ear, "...have I told you how absolutely gorgeous you look tonight." I smiled bashfully and pull back at bit to look at him, he stare at me with a look that would have knock the air out of me in the beginning of our marriage.

I hate to admit it but these pass few weeks, Aemond has become different, his not the same man from few months ago, he smiles more, he laughs more, he even told me a joke that wasn't even funny but it did make me smile. I love Aemond not in the way I love Krey but I do love him and care for him now, it's like the man who lost his eye was gone and the boy who I imagine marrying when I was a little girl finally came back and I don't want him to go away.

"Yes, you have." I replied back making us share a smile.

"Well, I'll say it again, you look absolutely gorgeous tonight, my love." He purred moving his hand to settle on my swelling belly, I look down and place my hand on top before looking at him with a sly smile.

"Such kind words, husband." I move my other hand to his thigh, "Maybe later on tonight I can give you a sweet treat for being such a good boy these passed couple of days..." I move my hand up before giving him a squeeze, he let out a shudder breathe as he watch me, "...would you like that, darling?" I leaned close to whisper in his ear with a sultry tone.

A soft low moan came from him when I squeeze him again, "Why wait when we can leave right now, I doubt anyone would care." I pulled back with a amuse smile, his eye swirl with lust making me bite my lip.

"What would you mother think, husband. Leaving so soon...we havent even gotten our desert yet." I smirk.

Aemond gave a playful eyeroll, he lean in close again to brush his nose along my jaw, "My mother has your aunt to distract her..." he whispered before pressing a gentle kiss near my ear making me smile, "...and besides I rather have you than any desert that comes out." He cooed before kissing a spot that made me giggle, Aemond pulled back to look at me.

"Fine but will have to deal with your mother in the morning," I said, he nods his head.

Deal, but let's wait a few minutes,"

I nod my head with a 'okay' Aemond smiles and leans back in his seat his hand still on me, I slowly slide my hand from his thigh and look at my plate. I glance around the table as I take in the smiles and laughter, I look at my grandfather as he talks to his brother something I never seen in my life. He looks so happy as he speaks to him, it seems everyone is having a good time. I move my eyed away from them to look across the table, my heart leap at the cold eyes of Jace, I averted my eyes quickly confuse and a little bit concern at the way he was glaring at me.

"...so have you decided on any names." I snap out of my thoughts and turn to Luke.

"I'm sorry?" I ask not truely catching what he was asking.

"For the baby. Have you decided on what you are going to name them." I let out a small 'oh' and glance around to see the others pausing their conversation to look at me.

"Um, no, we are still between two names if it's a boy but we did decide if it's a girl we name her after our great grandmother, Alysanne." Their was looks of approval around the table, some saying it was great idea and a beautiful way of honoring the late monarch.

"And if it's a boy." Jace ask with a edge to his tone making me look at him.

"Well, Aemond likes the idea of naming him Maegor..." I said looking at the others, the elder relative looked a bit unsure or just not too keen on the name while my cousins looked rather happy.

"Finally, someone in this family has the balls to name a child with such a fierce name." Ronas says causing his brother next to him to nod in agreement.

"Let's just pray that he doesn't end up like him, hmm." Balaegor comment looking at his cousin before looking down the table at us.

"My son will have what maegor the cruel lacks, a loving father." Aemond states before taking his goblet.

"Mmhmm, I couldn't say it better myself, my boy." Viserys spoke weakly making Aemond tense his jaw, I patted his hand calming him down, "I am happy that we all can come to together again to celebrate and witness another member to be added in our line, and I thank the gods every night for keeping me here so i can meet my great grandchild." My grandfather moving words made everyone smile and look at each other grateful, I look at my grandsire with a small smile slightly moved by his words.

Even though, Viserys has neglected his younger children and me for years, I have notice he is slowly coming around in trying to mend those relationships. He started spending some time with Helaena and her twins, whenever I go for a walk I would see them in the garden just sitting and watching the children play with the nanny. I heard from Enith that Viserys has also been visiting Aegon some days, i don't know what they talk about but i know that Aemond is not fond of his father finally taking the initiative to act like a father after so many years of neglect.

He told me how uncomfortable he was of the fact that he and his father share so many common interests, Aemond didn't want an relationship with his father, that time has passed he said to me once. But, he couldn't just ignore the monarch since he was still his father and the king, so he played along ro his father's delusion.

"That's beautiful, father." My mother said with a small smile, Viserys gives a weak smile in return at his eldest, "We should make a toast to Maegor." Rhaenyra raise her cup, but before anyone could Aemond spoke up.

"Actually," Aemond slide his chair back making me and everyone else at the table look at him as he stand holding hid cup while still holding my hand, "As much as I love to name my firstborn, Maegor, I believe my son's name should honor my wife's late father, Laenor." I look up at Aemond in surprise staring at him with wide eyes, "So, let's raise our glass to my future son, Laenor Targaryen." He held his glass up as everyone toast to my unborn son, my eyes remain on Aemond.

He took a seat and turn to me, I couldn't help but smile at him with watery eyes.

"Thank you," I said low once everyone went back to conversing with one another, Aemond smile not saying anything and just kiss me making me kiss him back.

We pulled back smiling at each other, as I look at him I realize maybe I can give him another chance. Make this work between us and get a happy ending out of it, it will be hard getting over Ser Krey but I know I must let go like I said before for myself safety and his own.

"...This is ridiculous." Jacerys mutter but I heard him and so did Aemond making us look at him as he glare at his plate.

Aemond turn in his seat making me look at him, I grab his hand signaling him not to engage.

"Is there a probelm, nephew." Aemond ask calmly making Jace snap his eyes up towards him, he glance at me before tossing his folk on his plate making it make a loud clank catching others attention.

"Yes, I do have a problem, uncle." He said tersely, my mother look worried at her son, before leaning to whisper to him only for him to hold his hand up to silence her as he stare at me, "Are you seriously thinking on naming your son after father?" He ask, I nod my head.

"Of course." I said without hesitation, but that seem like the wrong thing to say as Jace scowl and balled up his hands.

"You can't." He grits through his teeth making me frown confuse.

"Why,"

Jace glance around the table as everyone watch us, he looks back at me with a look that I couldn't place and blurted out the last thing I expected.

"Because I do not want our father's memory going to a bastard." Jace said codly, it felt the whole room went quiet at his words, I stare at him shock and hurt before glancing at my mother who avoided looking at me.

I brought my attention back to Aemond as he quickly got up from his chair and slam his hands on the table.

"My son is no bastard, so you better be careful what you say next, boy." Aemond seethe out making me stand and grab his arm.

"Aemond, just forget let's just go to our chamber," Aemond look at me upset.

"But, he–" I shook my head and cut him off.

"My brother is obviously drunk." I look pointly at jacerys as he leans back in his seat with his cup to his chest, I look at my husband and pleaded with him with a soft voice to let it go.

Aemond glance at jacerys with a glare before looking at me, he nodded his head with a clench jaw making me rub his arm and look at the others.

"Thank you for dinner, Alicent." I said looking at her, she smile but her eyes held some something that ignore, "I wish you all a goodnight," I held Aemond's arm and we step away from the table, it was still silent as we walk away.

"Don't forget to kiss Ser Krey goodnight as well, sister. I'm sure his waiting for you in your old chambers right now." My heart stop just as Aemond did, my blood ran cold and I look at Aemond as he stare ahead.

"Jacerys! That's enough." My mother snap.

"What? It's not a big secret, mother. Everyone knows already." I turn around to look at Jacerys as he look smugly at me, "Just like everyone knows about Aemond's whore in Harrenhal." I took a quick inhale at the mention of rivers.

"Your ass you know that, jace." Alyaena says, Jace shrug his shoulder uncaring and took a sip out of his cup.

"So, it's true...interesting." Ronas says looking at Aemond impress look.

"That's enough!" Rhaelle snap catching everyone attention expect Aemon as he yet to say or do anything, "This night has turn sour, its best everyone goes to bed." She commanded.

"But, it's not even the hour of the bat, mother." Corwyn complains drunkley, "And besides who cares, it's not like anyone at this table is a saint."

"Speak for yourself, brother." Alicent spat, corywn looks at his sister with a look.

"Now, now, alicent, I'm very drunk and the last thing you want right now is to be on my bad side." Corwyn threaten lightly making the queen purse her lips angrily.

"Oh, shut up!" Baelor said before a all out quarrel broke out.

I shook my head turning away from the drama and the bickering to see Aemond walk away from me, I call out his name. But, he didn't stop as he left through the doors, I move to go after him only to stop when jacerys open his damn mouth again.

"Look at that the perfect couple is not so perfect after all, who knew." He said dry as I clench my jaw and turn sharply on my heel.

"What is wrong with you." I snap loudly making the others go quiet, "Why would you do that, we were having a great time, why would you ruin the evening." I walk back to the table with each word I said getting angry.

"I just wanted to show the family what a traitor and fraud you are, sister." My twist into a scowl at his words as a mixture of anger and confuse swirl in me, "...parading around here like some happy couple, you two are so delusional that it was just sad."

"Your an asshole." I snap but all jacerys did was smirk and chuckle, "And the reason you did this is because your the real miserable one here, poor boy got his ego bruise because his betrothed didn't want to marry him." Jacerys's smile twisted into an angry frown.

"That's enough you two," My mother said in her firm voice, "Jaenara, apologize to your brother this instant." I look at her in disbelief as she look at me, I glance at jacerys as he sneer looking from his mother to me.

I never understand how we got here, why my brother was this way, back then when we were children he use to be my bestfriend. He would always carrying me on his back when we go exploring in godswood, whenever I hurt myself he would kiss my wound and make it better, he told long that he would always protect me and now here he is ruining everything. And mother is letting him.

"Jaenara–"

"No!" I snap looking at her, my mother gape at me taken back, "I'm not apologizing to that peice of shit," I glare at jacerys as he did the same.

"I am your mother and you do–" I let out a harsh laugh making her words get caught in her throat, I look at her with so much anger and hatred that I been holding in for ten years.

"You have never been a mother to me, and I am tired of you pretending like you are..." Rhaenyra stood frozen making me continue, "...all I ever done was be a good daughter, and yet nothing I do was enough for you. But, yet I love even when you were cruel to me and maybe thats a good thing because it make it so easy to say this next part, mother." Rhaenyra look at me with mix emotions, "I hate you and I never ever want to see you again, you will never met my son, so I hope your happy." I turn away from her to jacerys as he look at me with neutral look.

"What? Gonna say you hate me, too." He said without inch of care in his voice, I shook my head at him, and took another step closer to the table.

"No, because we shared too many good memories together, brother." He squint his eyes at me with unreadable expression, "I don't know what I did to make you hate me, you're my big brother. I loved you, I defended you..." I let out a exasperated chuckle, picking up Aemond's goblet,"...I lost half of my fucking memories for you, and all I can really say to you is go fuck yourself." I threw the crimson liquid into his face making him splutter

I threw the cup on the ground and turn walking away, I held my stomach as I quickly left the hall to find Aemond.

Keep Me Near Your Heart XV

"How's anyone seen, Daeron." I ask walking up to the table for breakfast, " I went to fetch him for breakfast, but he wasn't in his room." I look at Aemond as I stood beside his chair, his hand comes up to rub circles on my growing belly as he admires it with a smile.

"He's probably in the courtyard with Ser Cole," I frown at the mention at the knight, Aemond knock his hand against the chair next to him before pulling it out, "Come sit, my love." Aemond drag his hand down to tap the seat, I move from his other side to take the seat next to him.

The servants were quick to fill my plate with food before stepping back, Aemond move his hand from the table to put his hand on my stomach, his hand miss a few inches making me grab his hand and place it where he wanted it to do. Aemond's hand rested on my belly, the low chuckling from across the way made me look up with a death glare, Aegon swallow down his laughter when his eye connect with mine.

He looks away from me as he hide behind his cup, I roll my eyes and sat back in my chair.

The arrival of the babe was just a few weeks away, I would be happy about finally meeting my sweet child if it wasn't for the fact that the queen thought it be a good idea to send invitations to everyone in the family to come celebrate the arrival of the babe. I am still conflicted about having to see my mother and aunt after nearly a year of not talking, my mother I don't really care about but I am afraid of dealing with rhaelle since I promise her I write her every chance I get.

The sounds of the door opening from behind made me turn, Daeron stalk in with a upset look and not too far behind was Alicent and her trusted knight, Ser Cole, I watch as he pulled out a chair next to Aemond and cross his arms. I eye Daeron curiously before glancing at Alicent as she take her seat at the head of the table, she had a neutral look on her face as she got settle, I take a quick glance at Ser Cole before looking away.

It was quiet as we ate, only the sounds of forks scraping against the plates and the soft muttering from Helaena was the only thing that filled the air. It felt intense. I look at Aegon to see him eyeing Daeron, I squint before shifting in my chair making it creak.

"Is something wrong?" I look up and look at Alicent as she lean forward with her hand folded under her chin.

"N-no, just...trying to get comfy." Alicent hummed before leaning back and snapping her fingers.

"Go fetch the princess a more comfortable chair to eat in, please." Alicent commanded, but I spoke up stopping the servant from moving and alicent to look back at me.

"It's fine. I just need to stretch my legs," I lean forward a bit to look at daeron who was glaring at his food, "Daeron, do you wish to join me--"

"No." He bluntly said catching me off guard.

It was out of character for daeron to refuse to accompanying me, he usually be very happy to join but his harsh tone took me by surprise.

"Daeron." Alicemt called sternly, I glance at her as she gives a look to her youngest.

Daeron sigh with a growl and turn his head towards me, "Thank you for the offer but I must decline, jaenara." I frown.

"Are you sure--"

"Yes, I'm sure why wouldn't I be." He snapped, I gape at him taken back, "Can you leave me alone already." Aemond glare at him.

"Watch how you talk to my wife--"

"Shut up." He snapped again looking at his brother.

"Daeron!" Alicent hissed.

Daeron snap his head at his mother, he saw the look she was giving making him growl again and scoot his chair back.

"I'm going to godswood, no one bother me." He snips talking away from the table, I could help but stand and watch him leave the hall.

"What was that about." I ask to no one in particular as I stare at the door.

"He's just...moody," Alicent started making me glance at her as she sip from her cup, "All boys act like that at his age," I put my hand on my stomach with frown.

"I think you meant to say brat, mother." Aemond states looking at his plate as he stab his eggs, "A bit of discipline can fix that." He added.

"Your brother doesn't need any discipline, aemond. His just a child, if I remember you were the same when you were his age." Alicent took her cup again to put it to her lips as she looks at her son.

"Yeah, that's because someone took my eye out." He replied before shoving food into his mouth.

Alicent swallow her wine before clearing her throat and remaining silent, I look at aemond as I put my hand up to scatch at the back of neck near his hair making shudder slightly. His hand went to my lower back, rubbing it in a comforting way.

He thinks we are good, that our marriage is saved and secure. I thought it would be hard to pretend to love him again, but thanks to aemond and the baby inside me, it was easy for me to get my way nowadays.

"What was that, Aegon?" I snapped back to the present and glance between Aegon and Alicent as she stare at her with stern look.

"Nothing, mother. I do not know what I am saying I'm a bit drunk." Aegon replied with a small smirk as he swirl his wine in his cup.

I furrow my brows and look at helaena as she look at aegon with a sad frown, I tilt my head slightly trying to figure out what just happened.

"Hela." I called making the young princess look at me with wide eyes, "Do you wish to go for a walk with me?" Helaena gape for a second before closing her mouth and nodded, I smiled and held out my hand making her get up.

She took it and walk around the table to link our hands, I look at aemond as he wipe his mouth with the cloth.

"I'll be back in a few, husband. Do not forget that we going to visit the younglings later." I said pointly making him look up at me with a small smile.

"Of course, my love." I hum before binding down to kiss his cheek, he turn his head instead to capture my lips.

I pulled back smiling before stepping away from the table, helaena and I walk towards the double doors, I heard talking once we close the door. I didn't need to stay to hear what they were saying, if it was about daeron she will found out why the young boy has been in such a moody.

We walk through the garden hand and hand, I gaze at the different colors of flowers as helaena stare off in her own head.

"Helaena." I called as I stare at a bed of black locusts, I look at her just as she looks at me, "Have you notice something is bothering daeron, he seems highly upset about something." Helaena glance away with a look that told me all I needed to know, "....Helaena." I drawl out with a look, helaena looks back at me with a meekly look.

"...the dragon has been strip of his wings, he lives in turmoil...no thanks to the wolves." I furrow my brows and tilt my head at her words, it was always hard to understand helaena's riddles as a child.

Even now as a adult it's hard to understand what she is saying.

"What does that mean?" I asked stopping in our tracks, helaena looks unsure as she averted her gaze.

"...you must seek him out to understand." She whispered looking back at me, I frown for a moment before nodding my head.

I loop my arm through helaena's arm, we continued our walk through the garden. My thoughts go to daeron, the way he acted at breakfast and the way Alicent was acting towards Aegon, it obvious they hiding something and I rather not wait to found out.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」

Godswood was empty. After escorting Helaena back to her chamber to attend to her children, I came to gidswood in hopes to find daeron, so we could talk. I look around as I walk further towards the tree, once under I heard sniffing, I walk around the tree only to found no one. I frown before I heard rustling in the trees, u look up and through the branches and leaves I could see daeron hiding up there.

"Daeron? What are you doing up there, get down before you hurt yourself." I move around to get a better look at him, he glance at me before quickly turning his face to hide.

"Leave me alone." He voice was rough as if he been crying.

"Daeron, what's going on." I ask looking up at the tree, my hand went to my belly feeling anxious at how high he was.

"Go away." I sigh desperately looking up at him.

"Please, Daeron. I only came to see if you were okay."

"I'm fine! Are you happy? Now, leave me alone." He snapped causing me to look up at him sadly.

"Daeron, please come down, whatever is on your mind we can talk–" Daeron turn his head to look down at me with a scrunch up red face.

"I don't want to talk you, or anyone at that matter." He hissed every word filled with vemon, "So, fuck off." He added turning away again.

I huff through my nose looking up at him, I look at the tree for a minute before stepping towards it and getting on my tippy toes.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

"If you won't come down and talk, then I come up." I said holding on to the tree before lifting my foot to try to climb.

"Jaenara just leave me alone, and stop that! Before you hurt yourself." I shook my head as I boost myself up as I grab onto the branch before pausing to look up.

"I'll stop if you talk to me." Daeron's eyes held so much conflict that his silence made me move again, I gasp when my foot slip but lucky enough I was still holding tight on the branch.

"Jaenara! Stop it. You going to hurt yourself and the babe, do your being stupid." I let out a breathless chuckle.

"Well, I do stupid things for the people I love, I don't know what to tell you." I utter but by the way daeron was silent made known he heard me, I yelp sliding down the body of the tree to land on my butt, "...ow." I mutter, I heard daemon gasp and call my name, the sound of rustling made me look from me rubbing my bottom to daeron getting out of the tree to come to my side.

"By the gods, jaenara. Are you okay?" He asked worried making me give him a reassuring smile.

"I'm fine just fell on my butt." Daeron grabbed my elbow helping off the ground, I brush off the dirt from my dress before looking at daeron, "Daeron, I'm sorry..." The young prince look at me with a mixture if confusion and shock, "...I know I put you in a situation you didnt want to be in, but the way you been acting has me worried about you." I confess.

Daeron looks down meekly with a defeated look, "You know whatever it is that is bothering you, you can tell me right. You know I will not judge you." Daeron sniffle moving his hand to wipe his nose on his sleeve.

"But, you will be angry with me." He utter making me give him a look.

"I can never be angry at you, nothing can make me mad at you." I reach my hand to touch his cheek only for him to flinch away, I frown at the way his eyes welled when he look at me, "...Daeron, whatever it is I promise you on my aunt and everyone I love life that I will not be mad at you...never. You mean too much to me for me to ever hold any anger in my heart for you, so i ask again, please tell me what is wrong. " Daeron's chin started to wobble a bit along with his bottom lip, before I knew it he throw his arms around me and sob.

The sound that came from my uncle broke my heart, it felt like someone was squeezing it making it hard to breathe. I slowly wrap my arms around him, my hand move to massage his hair as he cries.

"...I-I didn't want to go...b-but aegon made me," Daeron wept, "...I'm sorry, jaenara...I'm so so sorry," My head was spiraling to what he was apologizing for, and as I sense a feeling in my gut that made me hold Daeron to me tighter.

My mind goes to aunt rhaelle and uncle daemon, a memory that I don't remember played in my head and soon a feeling of anger spread through my body.

"It's alright, daeron." I rub his back, "...everything's going to be alright, sweet boy." I whispered burying my face in his hair before kissing his hairline.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」

I watch Daeron's sleeping form in my bed, once we came back to my chamber, daeron finally explain what been eating at him. Once he was finish, he went back to crying and I held him as he did, I didn't know what to do but sooth him and assure him that I wasn't angry with him. I shook my head and pushing those thoughts aside hearing the a gentle knock at the door.

I turn around and opened the door to see Enith, she smiles at me and I return the gesture. I step aside and she walked in her eyes going straight to daeron, i could see in her eyes that she was confuse and worried to see Daeron here.

"I must go." I said making Enith turn her attention back to me, "I'll won't be gone long." Enith frown a bit.

"Where are you going?" She asked, my eyes bounce over to daeron before going back to Enith.

"To have a little talk with aegon." I respond, "If he wakes tell him that I'm running a errand, okay." Enith's brow twitch before nodding her head, I smile at Enith before turning on my heel.

I close the door behind me and make my way down the corridor, I half expected Enith to stop me, to talk some sense to me. I know she knows that something is wrong and that visiting Aegon is out of character for me, I wonder if she knows about what happened to daeron with her witchy powers.

I turn the corner before stopping when I see Aemond coming down the hall, it took a moment for him to notice me and he smiled my way.

"My love, I was just about to come see you...." He smiles widely, I glance around thinking, if aemond founds out I was going to see Aegon. He definitely would stop me, but I can't let aegon's action go unpunished nor can I let aemond take care of it.

I have no doubt he pick his brother's side over thus.

"Jaenara." He called softly standing in front me, I look up at him as he stare down at me with curious expression.

"Sorry, my love. What did you say?" I ask moving around, he follow suit and walk beside me.

"I was thinking about names for the babe," he says, I hum telling him to continue, "I have two I wish to name our boy, the first is Alaric a masculine name from my mother. She says it means all powerful ruler." I glance at him as he grins, I refrained from rolling my eyes, there was no way in all seven hells I was naming my boy after that fool wench.

"And the other one." I ask.

"Maegor." I stop and turn to him with a look, "...I know but I doubt our son will end up like maegor the first, and beside I think he can give different meaning to the name. Imagine, he could be maegor the clever or maegor the righteous." He smirk at the thought, I could only hum in response before continue on my way.

It was quiet between us, my mind was wielding on what I was going to do once I get to Aegon's chamber. I was stomp. I didn't know why I was doing this or why I was making it into something more than what it was, maybe I wanted to show daeron that I cared and that I am with him. Something in the back of my mind was telling me how stupid it is to confront aegon about taking daeron to the brothel, he was a boy, I understood that men should know what to expect during their consummation. But, the way daeron was acting says there was more but he was still afraid to tell me, and something deep in my gut told me that I had to do this. That I had to protect him.

I was brought back to the present by Aemond's hand on my wrist stopping me from going towards Aegon's door.

"Why are we visiting Aegon." Aemond ask looking at me.

"We're not. I am." I replied moving to step forward only to be stopped again.

"Why." He demanded making me give him a look.

"I have something to ask." I said with a edge in my voice to show aemond I wasn't in no mood for him or his jealousy.

"What about?" He asked again with a annoyed look, I glare at him before I could tell him none of his business.

Aegon's door opened making us look over, a servant with wild red hair appeared with a tray in one hand. She look at us in shock before fixing her face and averting her eyes, she bow towards us acknowledging our presents before swiftly stalking away down the hall leaving Aegon's door open. I slip my from Aemond's grasp and he called my name as I walk into the room, I stop a few feet away from the door as I scrunch up my nose at the odor in the room. It didn't take long to realize what just occur in here, I look over at aegon as he stood at the table with a cup in his hand wearing nothing but his trousers.

I cleared my throat catching Aegon's attention, he grin and open his arms to me.

"Neice, what do I owe you and my one-eye brother visit." He ask pulling out a chair and taking a seat, I glare at him at the insult towards aemond.

"Always nice to see you sober, brother." Aemond replied from behind me as Aegon grab a apple from the bowl in the middle on the table before biting into it.

"Oh, Aemond. You know I only jest, little brother." Aegon smirk.

I heard Aemond growl making me step forward catching Aegon's attention, "Apologies for the intrusion, uncle. But, I hoping you can shed some light on something for me." Aegon look at me surprised before he nodded his hand.

"Alright." He sat up straight in his chair with his leg resting on his thigh.

I gave a breif smile before speaking, "Daeron has told me on his and yours visit to the brothels in fleabotton..." Aegon raise his brow before a grin cross his lips.

"And you wish to visit, sweet neice. I am flattered that you wish attend with me, I am sure I can find a man there who be happy to fuck your flower...even with your predicament. " He glance at my stomach before looking at me, I scoff in disgust.

"That's not--"

"I always knew you were a cuck, brother." Aegon spoke over me to look over my shoulder at his brother, "He used always peek inside to watch me, the little freak." He chortle before looking back at me.

My brows twitch making my mind wonder for a moment before I shook my head, "What happened at the brothel?" I said cutting to the chase, aegon grabs his cup before stopping it near his lips.

"What do you mean? It sorta obvious what we did there." He says, I furrow my brows as aegon drink from his cup.

"What did Daeron do there?" I asked wanting to clarify on what daeron was doing.

Aegon look at me before looking at his brother who move to stand next to me.

"Is the pregnancy getting to her brain already, brother. Or is this what you been complaining about to mother about." He said making me clench my jaw.

"I have no idea what your talking about, jaenara let's go so we can leave my brother to drown in his cup in peace." Aemond turns to me touching my arm but I ignore him as my patience

"What don't you just come out and say it," I snap crossing my arms over my chest, aegon narrow his eyes at me as if trying to figure me out.

"Why do you care?" He asked.

"Because something happened and I want to know what it was." I shouted.

Aegon gave a eyeroll before draining his cup before slamming it down on the table, "It simple, neice. I took Daeron there to make him a man, and last I remember he left satisfied." I eye him.

"I beg the differ." Aegon scoff before looking away from me.

"You know brother I use to envy the fact that you got our sweet neice while I got stuck with helaena," Aegon sneer, "But, now I see that the gods where on my side by sparing me eternity with her."

"Well, your not a gift from the gods either Aegon," I snark back making him snap his eyes at me with a glare, "All you ever done is drink and fuck your way through life‐‐"

"And I will die a happy man because of it, neice." He grins.

"Yes, a happy and deserted man surrounded by nothing but whores who wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire." Aegon smile falter to angry frown.

"Maybe, but atleast I can count on a whore to shut her mouth and take my cock."

"Is that why you like them more, uncle? Because unlike the ladies in court or the servants here, they would rather slit their throats than be touch by a foul thing like you." Aegon grits his teeth.

"You little wh--"

"Alright, that's enough." Aemond shouted as he move to stand between me and aegon, he turn to me with a look, "Jaenara, we're leaving. Whatever this is doesn't concern us--" I snap my gaze to ae.ond.

"If not us than who then." I snapped angrily, aemond looks mildly taken back, "Are we really going to ignore that he took a child to a brothel, and allow him to have his virtue taken from him without a second thought." Aemond was silent at my words.

Aegon let out a snicker making me look at him, "Virtue? Is that what he got that from...you?" Aegon let out another snicker making me grow angry, "All that talking about waiting until marriage all came from you, gods I would have thought your marriage with my brother would have taught you something, stupid girl." He smirk making me rise my chin with a stern look.

"I learn a lot from my marriage, including how to rise above insufferable people." I spat, "That what makes me better than you and your mother, and that is also why daeron will always be better than you too." Aegon's expression was cold and hard.

I turn my back to him feeling proud to make him feel as low as he should, aegon was nothing but a arrogant and spoiled, no thanks to his mother and grandfather.

"That fucking prat is not better than me, his a craven who couldn't stop crying throughout the whole thing like a baby." He snapped angrily, "And then ran off sobbing like a little girl who got her favorite gown ruined, I am way better than that whimpering little shit." Aegon spit out making me turn to him, he was standing with his hands in fists and his wife twisted.

"He was crying?" I whispered.

Aegon looked just as equally taken back by his words than me, he stuttered for a second before getting the words out.

"...w-whimpering, he was whimpering--"

"And you didn't think to stop them." Aegon wore a look before shaking his head as a scowl return to his features.

"There was nothing to stop he was moaning...he was enjoying himself." Aegon sounded almost like he was defendeding himself, I couldn't help but look at him a certain way making him take notice and snap, "I dont have to explain myself to you, if daeron wanted to stop he would have. But, he didn't. He liked it--"

"How can you be so sure." I blurted, "You said he was crying and that he ran out, did you go look for him to see if he was okay?" Aegon stay silent, "Did you really think he was enjoying himself--"

"Aemond did the same thing, and he came back the next day and got his cock sucked." Aegon said exasperated, I look at him in disbelief.

"Did daeron come back the next day, aegon?" Aegon was silent once again, a feeling in my stomach made me feel sick making me place my hand on top, I couldn't help but glance down at my belly and wonder what I would do if that happened to my baby boy, my flesh and blood.

"It was nothing...he was exaggerating." Aegon finally utter, I look at him with a disgusted look.

"If it was helaena in his place would you think she was exaggerating," Aemond and Aegon looked at me with a mixture of emotions that she could only describe as anger and fear, "What about your little boy, jaehaerys, would you think it was nothing if daeron dragged him into one of those places and ignore his cries. Would that be nothing, uncle." Aegon turn his head with conflicted look, I blink trying to get rid of the hot tears, "No child should to have to go through that, and no parent shouldn't have to watch their little boy have the light snuff right out of them." Aegon bowed his head as his lip twit into a snarl.

"Get out of my room." He demanded not looking up.

I turn on my heels without a word or fight, I left the room leaving aegon and aemond in the uncomfortable silence. It wasn't long before awmond catch up with me, he grab my elbow stopping me in the hall, I face him bit didn't look at his face but rather his collar.

"Are you okay?" He asked, I furrow my brows before straighten them to look up at aemond.

"I'm not the one you should be asking that to." I replied with a dry tone, aemond nod looking embarrassed and went quiet.

I look down as his hands slide down my arm to grab my hands after a moment of silence between us, he let out a deep sigh, "What do you want me to do?" He asked as if wanting to know what his next order was from me, I look back up at him with a confuse and unsure look.

A devious thought crossed my mind, I was hesitant for a second contemplating if I should say it out loud or not. But, the words aegon said not too long ago played in my head like a taunt, and my anger once again flared.

"I would like you to found out what brothel aegon took daeron, and set fire to it with those whores inside." The words came out steady and clear, my words didn't mush together or come out shaky. It was clear what I wanted, aemond pulled me close so he could rest his chin on top my of head as he hold me.

"I'll do." He whispered, "I'll do anything for you, anything."

Keep Me Near Your Heart XIV

Jaenara walk down the hall towards godswood when she heard her name being called, she stopped and turn to see her young uncle jogging down the way towards her.

"Hello, Daeron." She greeted with a smile.

"Hi," he greeted back with a flush face, "How are you today, jaenara."

"I'm good, I'm on my way towards godswood," The young prince looked nervously at her before requesting to join, "Of course, the more the merrier." She grins as they turn to walk side by side.

It didn't take long for daeron and jaenara to make it to godswood, they settle under the tree with pillows under them and relax under the shade. Jaenara was enjoying the silence and the company of her uncle, she needed to get out of her room, it was getting quite stuffing in there even through everyone she knew was doing there own thing. Aemond having his afternoon tea with his mother, Enith and Krey was doing their duties leaving Jaenara to be left with her own thoughts.

"Jaenara," Daeron called below her with his head on her lap.

"Hmmm." She repond with her eyes close and her head leaned back.

"Can I ask you a question?" He ask, jaenara let out a low a giggle going to say 'you already did' but decided on a simple sure, "Have you ever been to a brothel?" The question made jaenara open her eyes and look down at daeron, he stare at her with his bright curious eyes.

"Uhh, n-no, why do you ask." Daeron glance away with an unsure look before looking back at her.

"Aegon wishes to take me to silk street, he said now that I am ten and three, I must become a man." Jaenara raise her brow and sense anticipation from daeron.

"But," she coaxed.

"I don't know if I want to go," he replies low, "The maester says that I must wait until I am married to have sex, but aegon said that it is different for me because I am a man and man don't have to wait until marriage." Jaenara scoff and roll her eyes, of course aegon would say that, "But, Aegon said if I didn't go then I be label a craven and no lady would want to marry a coward." Jaenara shook her head at her uncle's nonsense.

"Daeron, first, don't listen to your brother, his an idiot and an drunk. Secondly, if you don't want your first time to be with a whore, that is fine." Daeron sit up and turn to her.

"Really?" Jaenara nodded, "But, how would I know what to do when I am married."

"Well, you can always ask your mother or your father." Daeron frown a bit.

"But, mother is always busy and father...well you know." He said sadly bowing his head, jaenara looks away sadly at his gloomy face.

"Well, you can always ask aemond or me, believe me, no lady with half a brain in court will think you a coward if you don't do it. I think they will find you rather more attractive." Daeron smile widely.

"You really think so."

"I know so, you should always have your first time with someone you really really love, it's a special thing, you shouldn't waste it on someone who already done it a millions times." Daeron and jaenara chuckle before daeron became quiet, jaenara watch him as he thinks to himself, she bump her knee into his own breaking him out of his thoughts, "What you thinking about?" She ask.

Daeron made a face before answering, "I think you are right, jaenara. I would rather wait and do it with a woman I love than some woman who I probably will never see again...thank you." He smiles making jaenara return the sentiment.

"I'm happy you took the high road, it means you two more steps away from being nothing like your brothers." Daeron chuckle with a half of grin, he was quick to wrap his arms around jaenara.

The young princess smile as she wrap her arms around the young boy, jaenara looks down at the boy and her heart flip as she imagine her soon to be son. If she wanted anyone her son to end up like it would be daeron and lucerys, their innocence are what always made her life a little bit brighter. She hope her son will grow up to have a gentle heart, their aren't a lot of men in their family that has that trait.

"Princess." Jaenara and Daeron pulled away to face Ser Krey, jaenara smile at the knight.

"Ser Krey," she greeted with a nod, ser krey gave a quick smile before it dissolve in a thin line, making jaenara look at him warily, "Is everything alright?" She ask.

Ser Krey looks angry but was trying to keep his cool in front of her, he clear his throat, moving to put his hand on his sword.

"I'm sorry to tell you this, m'lady. But, there was a terrible fire in fleabottom," Jaenara frowns feeling her heart sink into her stomach.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」

Aemond wall down the hall towards jaenara's chamber with a single flower in his hand, he pluck it when he was in the garden with his mother. The first thought that pop into his head when he saw it was jaenara, the flower was new to King Landing and most importantly it was beautiful, way beautiful than the other plants in the wide garden. He only hope jaenara would take it, he can start to see her come around to him, slowly but still it is great progress from both of their sides.

Aemond couldn't help a small smirk to form at the thought of jaenara, he has missed her terribly, his mother constant complaining about jaenara and her new attitude is making him grow tired. He snapped at her the other day for calling jaenara out of her name, his mother looked shock before putting on her kick puppy expression, but he ignore it and continue on with their evening before departing back to jaenara and her small bump. Aemond felt a bit giddy at the way jaenara's belly is growing, soon enough he will be able to kill his boy kick, he must remind himself to bring up names for the babe with jaenara.

He had couple in mind that he knows jaenara would like, as aemond opened the door, his giddy feeling turn to confusion when he sees jaenara pacing the room with an angry look.

"Jaenara, what's wrong?" His wife stopped her movements to look at me, she clench her jaw before going back to pacing.

"Your grandfather is what's wrong." Aemond closed the door behind, and walk towards her with a slight frown.

"What happened." He asked.

Jaenara shook her head as she clench her fist, aemond look her over and notice the tear tracks down her face, he took another step closer. He stood in front of jaenara stopping her in her tracks, she looked at him with a hard glare, making him place his hand on her arm.

"I can't help you if you don't tell me what is going on." Jaenara stare him not sure if she should tell, she doubt he cares, his father didn't what makes him different, "I thought we decided we talk more, if you keeping something from me then you going back on your word." Jaenara growl softly looking away from him.

"The orphanage in fleabottom burned down," she starts with a frown as her eyes got misty, aemond raise his brows in surprise, "And your grandfather refuse to help the children and septa livia, he won't even allow me to help rebuild their home." Jaenara says close to tears.

"Oh," Jaenara look back at him angry.

"Is that all you going to say?" She snap, aemond frown shrugging his shoulder.

"What else is there to say." Jaenara scoff turning her back to him to stalk to her bed, aemond followed before coming to a stop as jaenara took a seat on the edge of the bed, "Jaenara, I'm sorry, but I don't know what you want me to say." Jaenara only roll her eyes.

"Of course you don't because it doesn't matter to you." She chided crossing her arms, aemond frown hurt making him glance down at the flower before looking back at her.

"Do you know what cause the fire." Jaenara shrug her shoulders.

"Ser Krey hasn't found any leads yet." She mutter.

Aemond clench his jaw at the mention of the knight, he swallow down his chargin and spoke again.

"Well...I'm happy to hear that Ser Krey is looking into it, maybe I should send Ser Ashford to help him." He suggest, "And if you like I can talk to my grandfather or mother about it."

"You do that?" She ask with a flicker of hope, aemond smile and nod.

"Of course, even through I don't give half a rat ass about those criminals. But, for you I will help as best as I can." Jaenara eye aemond unsure before she slowly nodding her head.

"That would be great appreciated, husband." She marveled, "Thank you." Aemond smiled at her.

"Of course, wife."

Aemond took a seat next to her and finally handed her the flower, jaenara glance at aemond before looking at the exotic flower, a small smile appear on her lips and another 'thank you' pass through her lips before she brought it to her nose to smell it. Aemond watch with a fast beating heart, as the way jaenara's demeanor slowly changed.

「 ⊹₊♚₊⊹ 」 "Aemond, slow down." Jaenara called as Aemond pull her along by her hand down the halls, "I can only go as fast as I can with my condition." She pout as her hand rested on her bump.

After weeks of waiting and small updates on the fire that took down the orphanage, Aemond finally got a lead and was now taking jaenara to the great hall.

"I'm sorry, my love. But, we must hurry before anyone knows that we in there."

Jaenara groan softly as she tries to keep up with Aemond, they rounded corner and hurried towards the door of the great hall. Aemond push the doors open with one hand as they other was still holding jaenara's hand, he pulled her inside to find ser Ashford and ser krey standing beside three others on their kneels, hands tied behind their back as they had their backs to them. Aemond pulled her along further inside catching Ser Ashford and Ser Krey attention, they bowed their heads as we rounded them to stand in front of the three men who looked to have been beaten.

Jaenara frown as she stare the three man beaten and broken, she glance away to look up at Aemond as he held a proud smile on his face.

"Who are these men, aemond." Aemond looked at his wife with a glint in his eye.

"The scum that burn down the orphanage." Jaenara looks away from her husband to the three men, she narrow her eyes at them before folding her hands on her belly.

"Why." She ask, the three men glance at each other before bowing their heads silence.

"The princess has asked you a question," Aemond snapped stomping over, he grabbed the one in the middle hair pulling it back so he could look at jaenara, "You will look at her and answer, filth." The older man grunts as aemond pulled at his hair roughly making the man whimper in pain.

"A-Apologies, y-your highness. Please forgive me." He snivelled looking at jaenara, aemond let's go of his hair roughly before moving to stand by his wife again.

Jaenara glance at Aemond once he stood by her side, his hands behind his back as he glare down at the three criminals, she looks away from him to look back at the men.

"Get them up." Jaenara comanded when she glance at the knights, Krey and Ashford nod before pulling the men to their feet, once standing jaenara ask again, "Why did you burn down the orphanage in fleabottom?" The man in the middle swallowed nervously before clearing his throat.

"We..were drunk my lady, we didn't mean to--" The man cut himself off as he lean forward in pain after Ser Ashford punch him in the stomach, jaenara frown and look at Ashford as he glare down at the man.

"Lie again and I will cut off something important." Ashford threaten making the man nod his quickly before letting out a deep breathe before he stood straight again.

Jaenara flick her eyes back to the man, "My boy, Mikel, he lived in that place for some time now since his mother died last spring," the man started again, "I been working very hard, my lady. To have enough coins to leave and start a better life with my son--" Jaenara flinch when Krey knock the man to his knees and kick him in his stomach.

"You are testing our patience, Tarik. Another lie that leave your foul mouth, I'm going to know knock every tooth out." Jaenara looks at Krey as he glare angrily down at the man, a familiar feeling stir in her making look away and squeeze her thighs.

A choke chuckle made jaenara turn her eyes back to the man on the ground, he lift his head to turn to look up at Krey with a bloody grin.

"Apologies." He state with a cold look, "I am so use to lying that it is hard for me to tell the truth." The man turn his head away before spitting down some blood onto the floor, jaenara take a step back in disgust. She watch the man get himself up on shaky legs, he waver a a bit but got is feet under him.

Jaenara looks up to his face to see him smiling, it was unnerving to say the less. She came here to get answers, she hoped that this was an accident and was willing to spare the individuals who did. But, she see that this was no accident and that these men did it on purpose.

"This will be my last time asking you this, if you lie to me again you can spend some time in the black cells to think on your predicament." She says, the man, Tarik, smile fall into a line, "Now, that I got your attention, are you ready to talk?" She ask, Tarik clench his jaw before nodding.

"I tell you what happened, if..." he starts with a small smile, "...you promise to rid me of my crimes." Jaenara raise her brows at the man's nerve.

"What of your..." she looks at the of there two, "...associates?" Tarik shrug his shoulders.

"What about them?" The two man stare at Tarik enrage.

"You bastard." One said glaring at the man beside him, Tarik only roll his eyes.

"So, do we have a deal, princess." Tarik smirk ignoring the other men, jaenara glance at aemond as he glare at the man before them before looking back at the man.

"Fine."

"Jaenara--" Krey started but she pulled up her hand stopping him, he frown and stayed silent, jaenara looks back at the man before nodding her head for him to go on.

"We burn down the orphanage." He finally admitted.

"Why." She ask, and Tarik shrug his shoulders.

"I needed my son out of there, I needed him to go into the family's business you see. My father and his father before him are what you called..." A small smirk form with a thoughtful look, "...a miracle worker, they made this special jar that could cure anything and all I wish to do is pass down my legacy to my only son." He said with a look that mocks sincereness

"More like a crook," Ashford spoke with distaste, "Cheating smallfolks and lords out of their money for your own gain." Tarik glance at Ashford with a look.

"A man got to eat." He grins before looking back at jaenara, "We burn down the orphanage so he had no choice but to come with me on the road, that's it." Jaenara stare at him in disgust.

"You could have nearly killed him and the others." Tarik stare at Jaenara with an emotionless look, "How can you be so heartless?" She ask making Tarik bark out a laugh.

"Are you serious asking me that?" He chuckle, "Do you not see where I live, I did my son a favor burning down that place. That septa was teaching him things that him and those other little bastards will never learn in the real world. You know what my son told me when I came to reveieve him the day agyer the fire?" He shook his head with a smile, " He said he didn't want to go that he wanted to stay and become a knight..." Tarik laugh shaking his head, "He truely thinks that someone like him is going to a knight, I told him he be lucky to be a stable boy in the castle. They have no future. All of them are going to end up being whores or thief or murders one day, I just...wanted them to start now rather than later so they know where they are in this world, the bottom." He finish.

Jaenara looks away upset, the feeling in her chest was close to boiling over.

"So, can I go now." Tarik ask, making jaenara look back at him, "...me and my boy have a long road ahead of us, and I will like to leave by nightfall." He smirk

Jaenara tilt her head at him, she look to her husband who look at her. She stare into his eye for a second before looking back at Tarik, a feeling she never felt before bloom in her chest.

"Of course." She said making Tarik smile, jaenara looks to Ser Ashford, "Ser Ashford, would you us the honor and escorting this man to the black cells." Tarik smile dropped as Ser Ashford rises.

"My pleasure, princess." Ashfrod grab the man's elbow, but Tarik pulled away.

"No, no, no, we had a deal." Tarik glare at Jaenara, making the young princess look at him confuse.

"Did we?" Tarik grits his teeth as jaenara look at aemond, "Did I make a deal with this man, husband?" She asked, making aemond smirk and glance at Tarik.

"Not to my knowledge, wife." Both stared at Tarik with smirks.

"Sorry, Tarik." Jaenara said with a pout on her smile, "But, I be happy to put in a good word with the king, so your sentences will be less severe." Tarik growl as he was pulled away by Ashord.

"What about us, m'lady." Jaenara looks back to the other two men.

"Yeah, what about us?"

Jaenara narrow her eyes at the two before looking at Ser Krey, "Take them to the cells in the upper level with the rest of the criminals." Ser Krey nod as he took both men by the arm, they thanked jaenara as they was pulled away following behind ser Ashford.

Once the doors closed behind them, jaenara turn to Aemond again.

"I want those two sent to the wall for their involvement in the fire." She said making Aemond nod his head before asking about Tarik, a glint passed through her eyes, "I want his head on a spike." Aemond smirks.

"I'll tell my grandfather."

Jaenara nod her head before glancing down, her hand rub her small belly with a frown making aemond furrow his brows.

"What's wrong, my love?" Jaenara looks up at Aemond with a small frown, "Aren't you happy, you got justice?" Jaenara frown deepen as her thoughts went to the children with no home.

"Yes, but...they are still without a home." She bow her head, "If they have no where to live than Tarik was right, they will soon go will found ways of living and be like the rest of the people in fleabottom. Soulless and broken." Aemond frown down at his jaenara, he hope that bringing Tarik here that jaenara will see the true face of fleabottom and stopped allowing those children to blind her with their innocence.

But, after what Tarik said about his son, aemond undstood a little bit on why jaenara cares so much. And seeing how much faith jaenara have in those children, and now seeing her so hopeless made aemond understand how much those children mean to her.

"Jaenara, look at me." Jaenara looks up at him with puffy eyes, "Tarik is nothing more than fleabortom dirt beneath our feet, they all are, but those children arent...." Jaenara blinks up at Aemond in shock not sure she heard him right, "They have futures and dreams like me and you, there is still time to save them from being like Tarik."

"But, how? Your grandfather and mother won't help. What can we do." Aemond frown a bit in thought.

"I can go to father about it," Aemond concludes, "He always says that smallfolk is what makes a kingdom, maybe if I explain what is happening he probably help." Jaenara frown.

"Are you sure that's a good idea? Now a days, when I visit him his barely lucid." Jaenara claims, "And last thing I want is to go asking him for antthing, especially sinc there's a fat chance he might be uncaring like your mother and father." Aemond put his hand on jaenara's shoulder.

"We'll figure it out...together." He said making jaenara smile a bit in appreciation.

"Okay, husband."

Aemond smile back at her before moving his hand to he could wrap his around her waist. He pulled her along towards the door, they make their way out unknowingly to them they were being watch.

Keep Me Near Your Heart XIII

"Princess."

Jaenara perks up and turn to her door, she sees Ser Krey standing in the threshold looking at her.

"Ser Krey." She acknowledged back placing her fork down beside her plate with her breakfast on it, "Please, come in." Jaenara leans back in her chair putting her hands in her lap as she nervously frigets with them.

Ser Krey stepped in before closing the door, jaenara watch him carefully as he makes his way towards her. He came around the table to stand by jaenara, he lean down pressing a sweet kiss to her cheek making her avert her eyes down, a grimly feeling filled her as krey parted and brought a chair close so he could be sitting next to her.

"I am surprised that you sent for me, usually you wait for me to come to you."

Jaenara glance at him before looking away.

"That's because I have something to tell you." Ser Krey looks at his lover surprise, they way his eyes shine made her feel even more gulity of what she was going to say.

"Really? Because I been wanting to talk--" Jaenara looks away from him with a grimace.

"Krey." She whispered.

"I know, I know, we talked about this already--" He begins again.

"Krey."

"Please, jaenara, why can't we be together." He pleads making her look back at him with a look, the same she been giving since he ask the first time.

"You know why--"

"No, I don't. I only know that you do not wish to give me your heart because of your husband's action." Jaenara shook her head at him.

"That's not why--"

"Yes, it is. So, do not lie to me. I'm no fool." He said sternly, the tone caught her off guard, "I do not expect you to love me back instantly, I do not expect anything from you. I just want you to know that I love you." He says each word of the last words slowly, jaenara stare at her knight with wide eyes.

"Krey--"

"I love you." Jaenara gulp as she start shaking her head.

"Please, don't--"

"I can not help what I feel for you, I tried and I tried but I can't help it. I love you and I have never said that to any women in the years I been alive--"

"Addam, stop it!" She finally snapped.

Ser Krey's lips purse together tightly at the use of his name, he looks at her as she stare at him with welled up tears in her angry eyes.

"We can not be together anymore." Krey recoiled as if he been slap in the face, "It is not you, I...some things have come to light and I think it best for us both that we--"

"What? Is it Aemond?" Jaenara blink as she tries not to roll her eyes.

"...it has something to do with Aemond, yes." She confirms.

Ser Krey stare at her with twisted look as he nods his head before looking away.

"You still love him?" Jaenara was silent, krey looks at her as she stares at her plate sad.

"I don't think I ever stop." She mumbled feeling her stomach churn.

Krey flicker his eyes over her face before pushing back his chair causing a loud screech against the floor, jaenara look up at him as he stood hovering over.

"Your a bad liar." He states, jaenara clench her jaw, "Does he know? Did he threaten to hurt you if you didn't break it off with me."

"No, he doesn't know, this is all me." Ser Krey shook his head muttering he didn't believe her, "It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, I'm not changing my mind."

"What else could it be?" He asked making her furrow her brows, "We had something good, we were happy, you were happy more happy than I seen you in months." He hissed making jaenara her head away with him with disgruntled look, "So, what changed, I deserve to know." Jaenara look back at him, the way he look at her remind her of the way aemond acted when she lived in the solas.

"No, you don't. You are a knight that pledge yourself to my house, I am a married woman. This union was bond to end sooner or later." Ser Krey let out a heavy sigh putting his hands on his hips.

"Maybe so," he utters, jaenara sighs too with a heavy heart, "But, I know you well enough to know that your not doing this willing." Jaenara scoff softly.

"You don't know me." She whispered, Ser Krey looks at her slightly offended, "Just cause we laid together doesn't make us lovers, what you feel for me will pass, believe me it will."

"How can you say that...after everything," Jaenara looks at him with a exasperated expression, Ser Krey grit his teeth, "You know what you are right..." Jaenara cast her eyes away from him feeling her heart crack a bit, but this what she wanted this needed to be done, "...it's not like I held you throughout the night whenever you woke up from a nightmare or make sure you ate when I know you go days without eating." He said catching jaenara's attention again, she looks at him partially shock, "No, no, lovers don't do that, lovers don't bring you your favorite flowers to brighten up your day when they know your feeling sad, they don't tell you stupid jokes to get you to crack a little smile."

Jaenara remember all those times, and she never felt so grateful for it. She can not lie and say there were times where she was close to saying 'I love you' to ser krey, or feeling entirely safe with him when she snuggle in his warm embrace after waking up from another nightmare of her drowning in the sea of her tormentors. But, she pushes those feelings down, she couldn't allow herself to fall in love with him, she knows where that leads and she will not set herself up like her mother did herself with ser strong.

"Those meant nothing and the sooner you accept that the sooner you can move on to somebody else."

"I don't want anyone else!" He snapped, "For gods sake, jaenara, it's not like I'm asking you to run away from me to sell tangerines and live happily after ever," jaenara looked at him with a bemuse as the line sounded familiar before shaking from it to fix him with a annoyed look.

"What do you want from me then? I have nothing more to offer you but my apols for hurting you."

Ser Krey shook his head looking away muttering to himself before looking back at you.

"You know what I want?" Jaenara stare at him, "I want you to promise me that you'll never let him in, that you never let him hurt like he did before. All I want, jaenara, is for to not fall prey to Aemond's lies." Ser krey look hurt but angry at her as she couldn't help but gape at him.

"I..I--" She strutted.

"That is all I ask from you princess, that all I want from you. Don't let him thrust him back into that hole that took months getting you out, you deserve better than that, than him." He said softly, he move to kneel in front of jaenara, he covered her hands with his own that was resting on her lap, "Love anyone but him, if you do not want me as your lover than fine, but I rather you take another than settle for a man like him." His words brought tears to jaenara's eyes, she bow her head and starting crying.

Ser Krey stare heartbroken before leaning up and bringing her to cry on his shoulder, jaenara wrap her hand around ser krey weeping, never in her life have she heard such loving words from a man.

It wasn't, she thought, how did she draw the short straw and end up with Aemond when she could have had Ser Krey. Jaenara was always nice and kind, she treated people no matter their statues with respect, and yet it feels like the gods are punishing her.

"When you sent from me, all I could thing about was you, I couldn't help but wonder why you sent for me." Ser Krey begins as he rubs her back, jaenara snifffles turning her head so her ear could be resting on his shoulder, "But, one thing tug at my mind when I got closer to your chamber," he chuckle moving his nose to brush against her crown, "I couldn't help myself but think about it, the more I did the more my heart swell in my chest, more I hope it was true." Jaenara tense as Ser Krey's hand slide from her hip to turn the back of his back to gaze along her stomach.

Jaenara pulled back, sitting up straight making Ser Krey move his hand to her lap, she couldn't look him in the eye as he stare at her.

"It's mine, isn't it." He ask low, making jaenara turn her head, she didnt want to tell him, fearing that she might get his hopes up.

"I don't know." She replied sadly.

Ser Krey hummed. Jaenara looked at him.

"You must understand why I am doing this, why we must distance ourselves–"

"How long are you." He cut off, jaenara gives him a look that shows nothing but her exasperation.

"Addam, you need to listen to me, we can no longer see each other and...and you can not be part of this child's life if it is yours."

Ser Krey stare at you with an unreadable expression, his eyes looked daze as if he didn't hear anything she just said.

"How long are you." He repeated, jaenara's jaw tic at his words.

"Addam--"

"I don't care, tell me how far you are."

Jaenara leaned back in her chair with a irriated look.

"2 moons, maybe less." She stated, ser krey look away from her in thought, jaenara sigh, "Please, do the right thing, addam, do not fight this," Ser Krey look at jaenara again, "I only told you this because I did not wish you to be blindsided if it comes to light that the child is yours, aemond will come for you and atleast now you will have a head start."

"Are you asking me to leave." Jaenara frowns a bit and dip her chin to look at her lap.

"I'm asking you to save yourself before something bad happens to you," she said, "I...please, I would be heartbroken if anything happens to you, addam. You do not deserve to be punish because me," she begs moving to look at him, again it was hard to read ser krey.

He was silent as he took his hand from jaenara's lap, she watch with a worry gaze as he stood up and tower over her.

"I will not leave you or our unborn child," He starts lifting his gaze to look at jaenara's crestfallen face, "But, if you wish for me to keep my distance, I will, princess." A look of relief flooded over jaenara's soft features, she stood up and without a thought wrap her arms around him.

"Thank you," she cries, "Thank you." Ser Krey's features soften before he wrap his arms around his lover.

The two stood in each other embrace, ser krey sway them as neither of them wanted to let go. It wasn't until the door opening when the two parted and face the door, aemond stood inside the room with his hand on the handle. He looked between ser krey and his wife, his eyes flicker back to ser krey when he notice his wife's wet face.

"Am I interrupting?" He ask tersely slowly walking away from the door to stand close to the couch that separated them.

Jaenara glance at Ser Krey as his gaze harden as he stare at Aemond, jaenara looked back at her husband after clearing her throat.

"No, your not." She said calmly, "Ser Krey was just about to leave for his rounds," she snap her eyes back at Krey as he stare at Aemond, "Isn't that right, ser krey." Jaenara says making Krey flick his eyes at her, her eyes pleaded to him to go, Krey looks back at Aemond who narrow his gaze the man.

"Yes," he states monotone, he looks back at his lover before bowing, "I wish you a good evening, princess." Jaenara nod her head in response, Krey's hand graze her own before stepping back and made his way towards the open door.

Once out of sight, Aemond walk over to the door and closed it, Jaenara stare at him as he linger at the door, she turn away from him to to sit on the couch when he move his body to face her again.

Neither of them said a word to one another, jaenara lean against the arm of the couch with her head leaning against her hand, Aemond stood by the door watching her, waiting for her to speak, after a moment he move and made his way towards the couch.

"So..." he spoke making jaenara turn her head slightly to see Aemond taking a seat on the other end if the couch, "...it is him then that you seek solace with when I am not here," Jaenara stare at the side of aemond's head until he turn to look at her, "Interesting choice of paramour, wife." Jaenara rolled her eyes looking away from him.

"Do not start with me, aemond." She restored, "I am in no mood for you." Aemond scoff causing to snap her eyes at him.

"Yes, I'm sure you aren't. I have no doubt you wasted your last fuck on him." He said with an angry glare.

"Oh, grow up." She snapped, "I can't deal with your green eye demon, right now." She turns away again irk.

It was quiet again, jaenara closed her eyes and rub her temple, she didn't know if that was a good thing or bad thing.

"How could you do this to me." Jaenara opened her eyes exasperated, "How can you...how can you embarrass me like this." Jaenara turn her head to look at Aemond, he was looking at her, his eye held tears making jaenara refine from rolling her eyes at the man child before her.

"Why are you here, aemond." She ask, noting the way his brow under his eyepatch twitch.

Aemond leaned back in the cushions before scatching his jaw.

"I heard a rumor today when I was with my mother," he turn to look at jaenara, "She heard that you are pregnant...is it true." He ask glance at her stomach before looking back at her, jaenara pulled her lip between her teeth as she chew on them glancing away.

"Yes...I am with child." She said slowly, she look back at aemond hearing him take a sharpe inhale.

"How long?"

"I don't know, the maester didn't say." She answered, aemond hums before looking forward.

"Is it his." He ask tersely.

"...I don't know." Aemond look back at her.

"What the hell do you mean--" He swore angry.

"It mean what it means." She snapped back, "Ser Krey and I...haven't been together for that long, but there is a chance he might be the father‐‐" Jaenara couldn't finish her sentence as Aemond stood up in anger and flip the table in front of us.

"You whore!" He exclaimed, jaenara pressed herself in the corner as she looks at aemond with wide eyes, "How dare you let another man waste his seed into you, after everything I tried to get back in your good graces, you were laying your back for another man." He shook his head at her with a scowl, "My mother was right about you, and I shouldn't be surprise, like mother like daughter." The slap turn aemond's head to the right, it happened so fast, jaenara's body reacted before her brain, not giving aemond enough time to prevent it.

Aemond turn his head back to Jaenara with shock, aemond looked how jaenara felt but she didnt want him to know so she fix him with an furious look.

"You can call me what you want to make yourself feel better, but I am nothing like my mother," she hiss, "I could have stayed quiet and allow you to go on thinking that this child was yours, but I choose the better option, the moral option instead." Aemond stare in silence as jaenara rant, "I decided to tell you the truth, because I thought you deserve to know, I thought I was doing you a favor in telling you even through you don't deserve it." She snapped, "After everything you put me through, I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt that you would listen before judging. I thought telling the truth would somehow bring us closer, but I see that you are not mature enough to handle that." Aemond looked at her almost hurt.

"Jaenara–" she wave her hand.

"No! I'm not finish. You got your chance to talk, it's mine turn now." She push aemond to aside making him stumble and fall back on the couch, "Things are going to change around here, Aemond. Because this will be my last time saying this, do you hear me." She point at him with a sharpe look, aemond didn't speak a word as he nod dumbly, jaenara drop her hand faltering a bit, "I am pregnant. Who's the father, I do not know, but what I do know is that once he is born, the only father he will ever know is you."

"Me and Ser Krey are over," Aemond look up at me, a glimmer in his eye making me hold back a exasperated look, "You can think or say what you want about me, but I would like to remind you that your first love is a old harlot who had more dick in her than your mother," Aemond shot a glare at his wife'a insult about his mother, but jaenara ignore him and continue, "I don't care what you say about me, but our child is something different, you have claim that you love me, yes?" It took Aemond a second before he nod his head, "Does that still ring true?" He nods again, "Are you...willing to prove that." She ask aside.

"Yes." He replied quickly, jaenara squint at him before crossing her arms.

"I have no love for you," she started making aemond lower his gaze, "I don't think I ever will, but I am willing to work on...trying for the sake our child." Aemond looks back up with hope, "But, that is only if you can keep your cock in your pants and your mother out of your ear, only then..." she vowed, "...I am willing to make our marriage work again." She finish, Aemond stood up slowly, jaenara lift her eyes to look at him.

"Do you really mean it, jaenara." He ask making her nod with a slight grimace, a smile spread across aemond's lips.

"But, that is only if--"

"I won't see her again, Alys will never step foot in King's Landing ever again, I promise." He says, jaenara couldn't do anything but nod again, suddenly aemond's lips were on hers.

Jaenara hesitated for a moment before kissing him back, she couldn't believe that he made it so easy, maybe enith was right. The plan was falling into place, by the time the baby is born, aemond would be so in love with her, he wouldn't even care the baby was his or not.

But, jaenara does feel a bit grim, she never saw her life going this route like her mother. She hoped she could be better than her, maybe alicent was right, maybe jaenara was her mother's child. Maybe, this plan was as great as she thought it was.

Jaenara and Aemond pulled back, aemond stare at jaenara with a small smile as he admire her. As jaenara look at her husband and the adortion that swirl in his eye, a feeling that she never felt before bloom in her chest. She wasn't like her mother, she was better and she was going to show her and everyone else that she isn't some weak simple minded girl.

She is a dragon and everyone is going to see how scary she can be if they cross her.
