Vaelys breathed in the fresh air as she strolled through the gardens of the Red Keep, feeling the warmth of the sun on her skin after being confined to her chambers.
The gardens were alive with the vibrant colours of blooming flowers, their sweet fragrance filling the air and lifting her spirits.
Aemond followed behind Vaelys as she meandered through the gardens. His gaze lingering on her form, admiring the way the sunlight danced in her silver hair and the gentle sway of her dress with each step she took.
He matched her pace, content to walk a few steps behind her, allowing her to lead the way through the path of greenery. Though he could have easily walked beside her, he found a quiet pleasure in watching her explore the gardens at her own pace.
Every so often, Vaelys would pause to admire a particularly beautiful flower or to reach out and touch the leaves of a nearby tree. Aemond would stop as well, his attention fully on her as she immersed herself in the natural beauty surrounding them. He couldn't help but smile as he watched the genuine joy that lit up her face, knowing that this simple moment brought her happiness.
As Aemond and Vaelys continued their leisurely stroll through the gardens, they were interrupted by the sudden appearance of Helaena.
"Vaelys, would you like to come and search for spiders with me? I've heard there are some fascinating specimens hiding among the bushes” exclaimed Helaena, her voice laced with a hint of eagerness.
Vaelys recoiled slightly, a shiver running down her spine at the mere mention of spiders.
"Oh, Helaena-I-I'll come with you” replied Vaelys, her voice hesitant. "But I think I'll be content to observe from a safe distance."
Helaena nodded, her smile widening. "Of course, Vaelys. Your company is all I need."
As they ventured deeper into the garden, Helaena's excitement was evident. Her eyes eagerly scanning the foliage for any signs of their arachnid quarry. Vaelys followed close behind, her gaze darting nervously from one shadowy corner to the next.
Just as they reached a particularly dense cluster of bushes, a young squire came running up to them, his face flushed with urgency.
"Prince Aemond," he gasped, "The King demands your presence at a council meeting immediately."
Aemond's brow furrowed in concern as he turned to the squire, his thoughts already drifting to the matters that required his attention.
“It’s ok brother-I shall keep an eye on Vaelys,” said Helaena.
“But-“ replied Aemond.
“I’m more than capable of keeping my good sister company. If it makes you feel any better Ser Charles is standing watch” replied Helaena.
Reluctantly, Aemond nodded, knowing he had little choice but to trust in Helaena's assurances. With a final lingering look at Vaelys, he turned and hurried off towards the castle, his mind already consumed with the matters that awaited him.
“A dragon across the sea, a bronze heart waiting to be free,” said Helaena.
“What does that mean?” asked Vaelys.
“You’ll find out” replied Helaena.
“When?”
“After the butterfly is born” said Helaena smiling.
"My King," said Otto tentatively, "The Velaryon fleet has effectively strangled our trade routes, and they've cut off all naval access to and from Blackwater Bay. Our coffers are dwindling by the day, and our allies grow restless".
"Restless?! They dare threaten the stability of the realm. This blockade is an act of treason!" snarled Aegon slamming his fist on the table.
"Your Grace, we must tread carefully. The Velaryon’s are a powerful house-“ said Grand Maester Orwyle, his voice a calm contrast to the King's fury.
“Who support my whore of a sister” snapped Aegon.
“Acting rashly could lead to further escalation” warned Otto.
"Escalation?!" Aegon rose from his seat, his violet eyes flashing with fury. "They seek to undermine my rule, to force me to relinquish the crown to my sister! They will learn that the blood of the dragon does not yield so easily."
"Your Grace, if I may, we could attempt to negotiate with House Velaryon. Find a peaceful resolution, offer concessions—" said Maester Orwyle.
"Concessions?!" Aegon's voice thundered through the chamber. "I will not negotiate with traitors! We will crush this blockade by force if necessary!"
“Your Grace we could-“ muttered Jasper Wylde.
"Enough!" Aegon's voice thundered through the room, cutting through the whispered deliberations like a sword through flesh. "We have wasted too much time entertaining futile suggestions. It is clear what must be done."
The council fell silent, all eyes turning to the king, his figure towering over the seated lords and advisors.
"We have dragons, my brother has Vhagar" Aegon declared, his voice low and dangerous. "And it is time we remind House Velaryon and all who dare challenge the Iron Throne of the power that resides within these walls."
A hushed murmur of apprehension spread through the room, at the mention of the dragons.
"Your Grace, the use of dragons in such a manner-it could have dire consequences. We cannot unleash such devastation lightly." warned Otto.
Aegon fixed his steely gaze on his Hand, his violet eyes ablaze with determination. "The Velaryon’s have forced our hand. They seek to starve us into submission, to bend the knee to my sister. But they underestimate the strength of House Targaryen, the strength of our dragons."
"Your Grace, we must consider the repercussions of such actions. House Velaryon may have set the blockade, but they are not alone in their allegiance to Princess Rhaenyra. She too commands dragons, not to mention Daemon has experience with battle”.
Aegon's expression darkened at the reminder, his jaw clenched with barely contained fury. "Let her bring her dragons," he retorted sharply. "We will meet them with fire and blood."
Your Grace, if you engage in battle with Princess Rhaenyra's dragons, it could lead to unimaginable devastation for both sides." warned Maester Orwyle.
"We must consider all possible outcomes, Your Grace. The sight of dragons locked in combat above the Blackwater Bay would strike fear into the hearts of our people. It could plunge the realm into chaos” said Tyland nodding in agreement; his gaze steady as he met the King's furious stare.
Aegon's fists clenched at his sides, for a long moment, the king stood in silence, his mind a tempest of conflicting emotions. Finally, with a heavy sigh, he relented, his voice weary yet resolute.
“Very well, of course there are other ways to force Rhaenyra’s hand” said Aegon as he looked over at Aemond.
“Your Grace?” asked Otto curiously.
“Vaelys-I want a child in her belly. Rhaenyra might think twice when we also have her grandchild as a hostage” snarled Aegon.
“These things take time Your Grace” replied Aemond, tying to keep his anger in check. The child that Aegon spoke so callously of would not just be Vaelys’ child but his too.
“Don’t fill me with falsehoods I know that you haven’t touched her since your wedding night” snarked Aegon.
“I will not force myself-“
“-You will do your duty brother and fuck your wife until she’s swollen with your child, or else I will take over and I won’t give two shits whether she wants it or not” demanded Aegon.
“Yes, Your Grace” muttered Aemond through gritted teeth.
“Good-now get out” snapped Aegon as he reached for a cup of wine.
Aemond bowed respectfully and then left the council chambers.
He stormed through the corridors of the Red Keep, not wanting to speak too anyone and he had barely closed the door to his own chambers before he punched the wall.
“FUCK!!” exclaimed Aemond as the pain quickly lanced through his hand.
Gods he was angry. He needed to get out of there before he did something stupid, like go back to the council chambers and beat the living shit out of his brother.
Ignoring the pain in his hand, Aemond quickly donned his riding leathers and went to Vhagar. A few hours away from it all is exactly what he needed.
As Vaelys and Helaena lingered in the serene ambiance of the garden, their peaceful interlude was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Ser Arryk.
"Princess Vaelys," he addressed her with a respectful nod, "The King has requested your presence in his chambers immediately."
Vaelys' heart skipped a beat at the unexpected summons, her mind racing with questions as to what could be so urgent. She exchanged a quick glance with Helaena, who offered her a reassuring smile, before turning her attention back to Ser Arryk.
“Where is Aemond?” asked Vaelys.
“Your husband has gone out with his dragon” replied Arryk.
"I guess we shouldn’t keep the King waiting then" replied Vaelys, her voice steady despite the flutter of apprehension in her chest.
With a nod of acknowledgement, Ser Arryk gestured for her to follow, and Vaelys fell into step beside him, her thoughts swirling with curiosity and concern. As they made their way back inside the castle, she couldn't shake the feeling of unease that settled over her.
Vaelys approached the door to King Aegon's chambers with cautious steps, her heart pounding with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation. The summons had come unexpectedly, and she couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had settled over her. As she reached out to grasp the ornate door handle, she took a deep breath to steady herself before gently pushing it open.
The room beyond was bathed in the warm glow of flickering torches, casting dancing shadows against the walls. Vaelys stepped inside, her senses alert as she scanned the room for any sign of the King.
Aegon was seated on a large chaise by the window, his expression unreadable as he regarded her with a steady gaze.
“Do you know why I’ve summoned you?”
“No, Your Grace” replied Vaelys.
“The Velaryon fleet has blocked the Gullet-preventing all travel and seaborn trade”.
“What’s that got to do with me?” asked Vaelys, watching cautiously as Aegon rose from his chaise and walked towards her.
She remembered standing at the painted table with her mother and her council as Lord Corlys had informed her of his success in the Step Stones.
His plan to seal the Gullet had come to fruition.
So her mother had decided to lay seige to Kings Landing to force the Greens to surrender.
“It seems we’ve underestimated your worth as a hostage, so maybe Rhaenyra needs reminding of what’s at stake” said Aegon smirking.
“How?” asked Vaelys.
“A babe” said Aegon.
“I-I’m not with child”.
“Not yet-but you soon will be-I’ve told my brother that he is too fuck you until you are with child. If not, then I will have you for myself and my brother will not stop me. I might even make him watch” said Aegon.
“Y-You wouldn’t” said Vaelys.
“I am the King-If I want you, I will have you-“ whispered Aegon as he reached forward and began toying with a strand of hair that had come loose from Vaelys’ braid.
“-Please, don’t do this” begged Vaelys.
“Why not?” asked Aegon cocking his head to the side.
“It is not proper” muttered Vaelys.
“Like I give a shit-“ snarked Aegon.
“It would be a dishonour”.
“To who-you? don’t make me laugh-you’re the daughter of a whore”
“I am the wife of your brother-“
“None of that matters-you are what I say you are” said Aegon.
“As are you” replied Vaelys.
Aegon paused for a moment, smirking as he looked her up and down.
“-Ser Arryk, escort my niece back to her chambers” said Aegon as he stepped away and sat down.
“Your Grace” muttered Arryk.
“A man who forces himself upon a woman is no man at all, and neither is the one who stands idle and allows such behaviour” said Vaelys as she stepped into the hallway.
“He is the King” replied Arryk.
“So that gives him the right to treat women as if they are nothing-you know what I don’t why I’m wasting my breath, you’ve made it perfectly clear where your loyalties lie”.
“Princess-“
“Not if-but when my mother takes back the Iron Throne, you will die for your treachery” snapped Vaelys.
Arryk remained silent after that, his head hung low as he escorted her to her chambers.
It was almost dusk when he returned to the Red Keep, sometimes his old girl could be difficult to rouse but today she’d been more than ready to take to the sky.
In the weeks since their wedding, Aemond and Vaelys had developed some form of friendship, they dined together most nights, spent time in the gardens and spoke often of historical facts or whatever they’d done during the day.
As he arrived in his chambers he was greeted by a hot bath.
“I figured you’d want to bathe; the air seemed a little cool today” said Vaelys.
“Hmm” muttered Aemond as he began pulling of his riding leathers.
“I’ll go into the lounge-“
“No. Stay. There’s something I need to tell you” said Aemond.
“Ok” replied Vaelys looking away until Aemond stepped into the bath and lowered himself into the hot water.
Aemond leaned against the edge of the bath and closed his eye. The hot water soothing his aching muscles. He almost forgot Vaelys was there until she cleared her throat.
“You said you had something to tell me”.
“I’ve spent the last few hours practising this conversation and there’s no easy way to say this but-“
“For the love of all that is holy, just spit it out will you” snapped Vaelys.
“The King wants me to put a child in you” mumbled Aemond.
“I know-“ replied Vaelys.
“Y-You do?”
“Aegon summoned me to his chambers earlier, he said that he wants you to get me with child-if you don’t then he will have me for himself and he would make you watch“ muttered Vaelys.
“Did he touch you?” asked Aemond.
“No-he just threatened too” muttered Vaelys.
“I will not let him touch you. I give you my word” Aemond.
“He is your King. You can’t disobey him” said Vaelys.
“I’ll think of something” replied Aemond.
“You won’t always be here to protect me Aemond”.
“Vaelys-“ whispered Aemond as he began to look for a towel.
“Here, I placed it near the fire so it would be warm for you” said Vaelys as she handed him a warm towel.
“Who taught you that?” asked Aemond.
“My mother. Sometimes we’d go on family dragon rides and sometimes the skies around Dragonstone would be a little chilly, so she would always set towels in front of the fire to warm us up after we’d washed away the smell of dragon” said Vaelys sadly her heart clenching at the thought of Archonei.
“Sounds-nice” muttered Aemond.
Vaelys nodded slightly and then turned around to give Aemond some privacy as he dried himself and pulled on a pair of loose breeches.
“You can turn around now” said Aemond as he sat on the bed.
After a few moments of awkward silence Vaelys begins undressing.
“What are you doing?” asked Aemond.
“My duty” replied Vaelys.
“V-Vaelys. Wait” urged Aemond.
“You may have killed Archonei and brought me here, but I would rather be with you and carry your child. Than have your brothers child after he forces himself on me” exclaimed Vaelys.
“But-” muttered Aemond.
“This is MY choice and I choose you valzȳrys” said Vaelys as she began fiddling with the laces on her shift (husband).
“-ābrazȳrys” rasped Aemond (Wife).
“Let us pretend there is no war-that the house of the dragon is united, let this be for us. Now there’s no one watching” said Vaelys as she untied her shift and pulled it from her body.
“A-Are you sure?” asked Aemond.
“Your seriously asking me that as I stand in front of you as naked as my name day”.
“Just making sure” replied Aemond as he reached out and took Vaelys’ hand guiding her to the bed.
“Now, show me what it feels like to enjoy the touch of my husband”.
Vaelys had lost most of her senses the moment Aemond had pressed her onto the bed and knelt down between her open legs.
When he said he wanted to kiss her there, she never imagined this.
Vaelys’ eyes rolled into the back of her head as Aemond’s tongue swept across her slick wet folds.
Vaelys bit the back of her hand to keep herself from screaming as Aemond began using his long fingers to tease her entrance.
“Ivestragī issa rȳbagon ao” growls Aemond (Let me hear you).
“A-Aemond. Oh god. Please” moaned Vaelys.
Aemond pressed two fingers inside Vaelys, moving them against a spot that made her entire body shake.
“I know your almost there. Let it happen my sweet. Come for me” whispered Aemond.
Vaelys arched her back and let out a scream as her pleasure erupted.
Aemond crawled up Vaelys’ body, placing gentle kisses on her skin as he moved higher and higher.
Vaelys blushed furiously when she saw that Aemond’s chin was shining with her slick.
“Calm yourself my little dragon” murmured Aemond.
“I-I’ve never-” mumbled Vaelys.
“Was that your first peak?” asked Aemond.
Vaelys blushed and nodded. Aemond smiled as he leaned forward and slowly ran his tongue along Vaelys’ bottom lip.
Vaelys jumped when she felt Aemond’s cock against her.
“Don’t worry, I’ll go slow” whispered Aemond as he reached down and took hold of his hard cock rubbing it along Vaelys’ wet folds.
“Ok. I’m ready” replied Vaelys, her heart pounding. Aemond thrusts his hips forward and the entire hard length of him is buried inside Vaelys.
“Oh” gasped Vaelys. She had expected to feel pain, but this was something else entirely.
Aemond rolls his hips gently at first, allowing Vaelys the time to adjust to the feeling of his cock moving back and forth inside her, but when his wife begins issuing quiet yet insistent pleas of 'harder and faster' Aemond loses it and begins fucking Vaelys into the mattress.
Their hips pound together as Aemond thrusts hard and fast, his movements brutal and precise.
“Fuck” moans Aemond his cock throbbing with need.
“A-Aemond”
“What is it you desire, Princess?” asked Aemond, his thrusts becoming somewhat stuttered and messy, his singular eye screwed shut, he ready to burst at any moment. His silver hair stuck to his forehead, from the exertion of fucking his wife.
“You-Aemond-” gasped Vaelys. Aemond grinned, increasing the intensity of his thrusts, watching her body jerk with each movement of his hips.
He could feel her cunny fluttering around him, so he reached down to apply pressure to her pearl.
Vaelys let out a chocked moan as she felt is finger swirling around her, she buried one hand into his long silver hair and the other grasped his arm so tight her knuckles had turned white.
Aemond pulls back slightly to watch with excitement as his wife peaks again around his length.
With a choked, staggered moan of his own, Aemond grips her so tightly, she would surely bruise, as he spills himself inside her hot, wet cunny. Filling her with rope after rope of his seed, thrusting shallowly to ensure it was as deep inside her as possible.
Aemond collapsed on top of Vaelys, his face buried in her neck.
After he’d managed to catch his breath, Aemond slowly pulled his softened cock from his wife and laid down next to her, without thinking he enveloped her in his arms.
Vaelys felt warm and utterly exhausted. She shifted to look up at her husband, watching as his eye opened to look down at her.
“A-Are you ok?” asked Aemond.
“I’m ok” whispered Vaelys.
“Hmm” rasped Aemond as he leaned closer and pressed his mouth to hers.
“Thank you”
“For what?” asked Aemond.
“The wedding night, you were kind to me” uttered Vaelys.
“I am your husband it’s-“ stuttered Aemond as Vaelys leaned forward and seized his mouth in a kiss, her tongue slowly moving against his.
“Aemond” breathed Vaelys her fingers moving through the sparse hairs that graced his chest.
“Give me a few minutes ñuha dōna and I’ll be ready to have you again” (My sweet)
Aemond had a ravenous appetite that night, he kissed, licked, and fucked her well into the hours of the night.
Never fully satisfied until he’d filled her with his seed another three times.
Aemond was absolutely insatiable, even the next morning he had reached for Vaelys and had her again.
He muttered nonsensically as he thrust his hard cock into her, begging, and muttering filthy things in high Valyrian.
Afterwards, Aemond had wrapped his arms around Vaelys and held her close.
At some point Vaelys had managed to fall back to sleep, and she eventually awoke some hours later to find Aemond sitting at the table, eating his dinner.
“You should have woke me” muttered Vaelys as she kissed Aemond on the cheek.
“I didn’t want to disturb you” replied Aemond.
“I’m surprised Ser Criston hasn’t come banging on the door, as I assume you’ve missed your morning training session”.
“Missing one training session won’t hurt, besides I had other things to occupy my time” quipped Aemond.
“Glad to hear it” said Vaelys.
“Although I will be stuck in council meetings all day-“ muttered Aemond.
“I-I think I’ll stay in our chambers today-Helaena was going on about millipedes yesterday and I’d rather not be in the company of such-creatures” said Vaelys shuddering.
“Are you afraid of bugs?” asked Aemond trying to stifle a smile.
“T-They have their place in the world-just not anywhere near me” said Vaelys.
“Well, it’s a good job that I had some new books brought from the library-so you may read to your hearts content” replied Aemond.
“Thank you” replied Vaelys as she took a sip of water.
True to his word, Aemond was gone all day.
But Vaelys contented herself with sitting on the balcony and reading through the books that Aemond had brought.
As the sun began to set, the maids had delivered supper and Aemond still hadn’t returned.
Vaelys was about to ask the guard on duty if he knew when Aemond would be back when the door to her chambers opened, and Ser Arryk walked in.
“If your King has the gall to summon me again-tell him to go fuck himself” snapped Vaelys.
“I swore to ward the Queen, with all my strength and give my blood for hers. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I will guard her secrets, obey her commands, ride at her side, and defend her name and honour”.
“Ser Erryk?” questioned Vaelys.
The memory of the day her mother had been crowned by her father, the crown of Viserys reaching Dragonstone by the hand of Ser Erryk.
"Your father sent me. We must leave now” said Erryk gesturing for her to follow.
“But-Aemond-” said Vaelys.
“This is your only chance Princess-Come we must go” said Erryk.
“The guard outside-”
“As far as anyone knows I’m Arryk and I’m escorting you to the Tower of the Hand” said Erryk.
"I could write Aemond a note" said Vaelys, looking around the chambers for ink and parchment.
"Princess-we must go" urged Erryk.
There was a part of Vaelys that didn’t want to leave Aemond-but she longed for her mother’s embrace, she missed her father and his lessons with the blade, she wished to hear the laughter of her brothers and sisters again, and she knew that she would never get another chance at this again, so after taking a deep breath Vaelys followed Erryk.
Ser Erryk's heart raced as he led Princess Vaelys through the dimly lit corridors of the Red Keep. His armour clinked softly with each step, the weight of his mission pressing upon him like an invisible burden.
At the behest of her father, Daemon, he was to help Vaelys escape the clutches of her forced marriage to Aemond Targaryen.
The princess moved swiftly, her eyes wide with fear yet filled with determination. Erryk admired her bravery, even in the face of such danger. They reached the gate, their only barrier to freedom looming ahead.
With a silent prayer to the Seven, Erryk pushed open the heavy door, ready to usher Vaelys into the night and back to the safety of Dragonstone.
But their hopes were shattered as the gate swung open, revealing Aemond standing before them, his features twisted in a mix of fury and anguish.
Erryk's hand instinctively went to his sword, but before he could draw it, Aemond was upon him.
"Aemond, no" pleaded Vaelys, her voice trembling with desperation. But Aemond paid her no heed as he engaged Erryk in combat.
Steel clashed against steel, echoing through the courtyard as Erryk and Aemond fought with all their might.
Despite his skill, Erryk found himself outmatched by the rage-fueled attacks of the Targaryen prince.
With a final, brutal strike, Aemond delivered a fatal blow, and Erryk fell to the ground, his lifeblood staining the stone beneath him.
Vaelys screamed in horror as she rushed to Erryk's side, but Aemond seized her roughly, tearing her away from the fallen knight.
"No, Aemond, please," cried Vaelys, tears streaming down her face.
But Aemond's grip only tightened as he dragged her back towards the Red Keep.
