Soon after the chaos of Lilliana and Jackson's death people began scattering out of the castle while we stood in place I stared at the bodies before me

"Are you alright?" Rhaenyra asked her hand placed on my shoulder

"Yes" I let out a breath I hadn't realised I held in before looking down at my dress and frowning

"The maids will surely get the stains out" Daemon stated I nodded in response before lifting my head and looking around us

"Where's Alicent?" I asked

"Outside I believe" Daemon said looking at me weirdly "What is the matter?"

"I was cruel to her the other day and now I just killed people in front of her and the king" I sighed before crossing my arms and placing my hand on my head "What the hell did I do?" I asked them

"They were coming after you Daph" Rhae stated before taking my hands in hers "You did nothing wrong and everyone can attest to that but I doubt such legalities will be needed especially for these two." Rhae looked over at the dead pair with disgust

"Your grace" Interrupted Elijah I turned my head to meet my brothers gaze

"Yes?" I asked

"The guards and I must remove the body do you know if" he paused and breathed "If these two had any relations or family to be sent home too"

"No" Rhaego stated coming from behind the throne where he had ran behind when the fighting had begun

"Oh Tresy" I muttered staring at Rhaego then back down at my dress forgetting for a moment while looking at the boy that I was wearing his mother and uncles blood.

His real mother.

Something that had been taken from me now considering the dead man who lay at my feet.

"Rhaego." Daemon called

Don't call him to me please.

Give him a hug for me.

As if my eyes could speak for me Daemon pulled the child into a tight hug causing the boy to completely melt into the croke of his fathers neck my heart smiled at the sight of the pair

Why did Liliana have to be so cruel in life?

But so meaningless in death?

I felt a hand against my own causing me to look up and see Rhaenyra holding it her other hand on her stomach

I smiled at my new niece "You look beautiful" she complemented I gave her a slight smile before placing my head on her shoulder and looking at Daemon with his son and smiling

"The hour is late" Daemon stated

"Off to bed Rhaego" Daemon and I watched as Rhaenyra took Rhaego by the arm and slowly disappeared into the halls of the castle before the pair looked at each other small smiles on our faces before we began walking to our chambers ignoring the knights who had come and gone with the bodies of my late sister and her brother.

"How are you this evening my dear" he asked my hand laced in his

I laughed hard when he called me 'my dear' making him look at me weirdly

"What?" He asked

"You called me 'my dear" I laughed again

"What's wrong with that?" He asked a puzzled look on his face

I stood still and smiled up at my husband "It is what my father called my mother when he was cross about something" I laughed

"What should I call you then? My love?" He asked making me smile with a simple blush run across my face

"Well let me think" I placed a finger on my chin before looking at him with a smile "Daph for everyday, my pearl on special occasions" He hummed in response before leaning closer to me

"And what should I call you when I'm cross?" He asked "Mrs Targaryen?" He added

"No, no." I began "you may only call me Mrs Targaryen when you are completely and perfectly and incondisently happy" I added smiling at my husband

"And how are you this evening?" He paused looking at me with a smile "Mrs Targaryen." He finished

"Say it again." I said

"Mrs Targaryen" he kissed my forehead before reading for the handle of my door and almost missing it and falling over which made me laugh before being lead into the room by Daemon "where we're we?" He asked "Oh yes" i smiled at my husband as he walked closer to me pinning me between the door and him "Mrs Targaryen.Mine." He kissed my collarbone making me laugh

Daemon looked up at me still in place next to my neck he chuckled before staring at me for a moment before speaking again "There you go again making me love you" Daemon told me

"Avy jorrāelan" I told him making him smile

I love you too.

"Avy jorrāelan tolī than se qēlossās" He stated before smashing his lips against mine

I love you more than the stars

I smiled into the kiss as Daemons hands found the back of my dress and began to undo the bindings

We parted for a moment only to remove the dress  then began kissing once more before making our way to our bed

Daemon kissed me while holding his hand next to my face

Daemon slowly pulled back and began playing with my hair as I gave him a confused look

"What's wrong?"

"No one will ever harm you again." Daemon stated before smashing his lips on mine again as my hands found the back of his head

Love of my life..
