°•°•"𝔗here you go!" rhaenyra smiled as she held a small mirror in her hand to show her daughter, visaeria gasped as a big grin graced her face as she examined her half braided hair that had pearls on each braid that hung"it's still pretty mama! thank you" the girl squealed clapping her hands , aemeria looked to her sister in awe as she too squealed "look so pretty ria!" the small girl grinned°•°•
°•°• she than turned to her mother "can mama braid my hair too please!" she pouted giving rhaenyra the most sweetest doe eyes, the princess chuckled lightly picking the girl up and placing her on the chair "pearls or crystals?" aemeria tapped her finger on her chin in thought before her eyes lit up "crystals please!" she grinned excitedly °•°•
°•°• rhaenyra and her younger daughters had spent the afternoon braiding their hair with various crystals and pearls along with a little dress up. visaeria and aemeria always loved getting dolled up and playing dress up with their mother as it was their way of bonding aside from their siblings°•°•
°•°•the princess chamber doors opened and in came laenyra "lily!" visaeria grinned running to hug her sister , laenyra giggled returning the girls embrace "your hair looks so pretty ria!" the elder girl complimented as visaeria giggled "mama did it! i love it so much" the girl grinned°•°•
°•°• rhaenyra smiled over to her eldest daughter as her fingers braided aemeria's hair "so is this where you three disappeared too?" laenyra said with a smile leaning down to kiss the small girls cheek before placing one on her mothers aswell , rhaenyra smiled warmly at the gesture°•°•
°•°•"the girls wanted to play dress up whilst you and your siblings went dragon riding" answered rhaenyra as she carefully placed the crystals in aemeria's hair , laenyra watched her mother as she fiddled with her riding gloves. the princess could see there was something bothering the brown haired girl°•°•
°•°• as she finished up the small girls hair, aemeria and visaeria ran to the pile of clothes to try on on the other side of the room whilst rhaenyra gestured laenyra to sit down where her younger sister was. the elder girl did as told as she let out a contented sigh when her mother ran her fingers through her dark curls°•°•
°•°•"what is bothering you my flower?" rhaenyra asked gently looking at her daughter through the vanity mirror, laenyra sighed deeply looking to hands before turning her gaze to her mother "when did you know for certain that mother was the one that would steal your heart forever?" asked the girl curiously°•°•
°•°• rhaenyra was surprised at the question but a soft smile laced her lips at the memories of her and jaelys "there were many times i was absolutely sure ...but this one beautiful night, me and your mother went dragon riding and we had a race she was certain she would win—and she did" the princess chuckled lightly at the memory as laenyra noticed nothing but pure love shining in her mothers eyes and that made her own eyes softened°•°•
°•°•"we decided to fly to rhaenys hill and just talk about whatever came to mind ...and in the mist of the moment she mentioned that i would soon realize that my heart solely belong to her..." rhaenyra stared into nothing as the flashes of that night that happened many years ago were vivid in her head and it still made her heart stutter°•°•
°•°•"and i knew she was right because without even her telling me that ...i myself knew my heart would only beat for her and no one else, and even after all these years—your mother still makes my heart flatter with never ending love" rhaenyra smiled lovingly°•°•
°•°•laenyra smiled softly "mama...i think i might've found that certain someone who has taken my heart..." the girl said ever so softly as tears filled her violet eyes , rhaenyra's face softened "is this certain someone the boy who had you smiling all night through at the ball?" the princess teased raising her brow°•°•
°•°•laenyra giggled as her face flushed "his so kind mama and his respectful and loves snow roses.." the girl said dreamingly as her mind went to the stark boy that haunted her every thought , rhaenyra smiled widely "and he is very handsome i must say" rhaenyra said cheekily , laenyra laughed°•°•
°•°•"that he certainly is..." the girl said shyly, visaeria gasped loudly "lily is inloveeee!" she giggled dancing around in the flowy pink dress and a small tiara on her head, aemeria didn't know what was going on but joined her sister as she too had on a purple dress with her own tiara as she danced along "lily is inlove!" the two small girls sung dancing around°•°•
°•°• laenyra laughed as she stood to join her sisters, the three holding each other's hands as their elder sister twirled them around making them squeal and giggle joyfully. rhaenyra laughed gleefully as she watched her daughters with a warm look in her eyes°•°•
°•°•after rhaenyra spent time with her daughters, she made her way to the war room where she knew her jace would be learning more about the history of his ancestors. the guards opened the doors as rhaenyra smiled to them before entering°•°•
°•°•the maester walked around the table as he listened intentively to jace as he spoke about king aegons conquest in high valyrian "king aegon targaryen, rider of balerion the black dread was first ever targaryen to bring together the six kingdoms with the help of his two sister-wives , queen visenya targaryen, first rider of vhagar and queen rhaenys targaryen, rider of meraxes" jace spoke fluently in high valyrian°•°•
°•°•the maester nodded proud "good my prince" he praised, rhaenyra smiled proudly and her heart swelled at the prideful and happy look jace had on his face after the praise "princess" the maester bowed "the lesson has been going well than?" asked rhaenyra as the maester hummed with a smile°•°•
°•°•"the prince has been an excellent student princess, every lesson with his is a joy" complimented the man as jace smiled "thank you" he said respectfully as the maester bowed before taking his leave°•°•
°•°•"your high valyrian has been highly improved my dear" rhaenyra said , jace hummed as he held his hands behind his back scanning the words in the large book "with having wonderful mothers teaching me ofcourse" smiled the prince°•°•
°•°•rhaenyra chuckled "how have you been...it's been long since we've talked" said the princess, jace frowned lightly at that "m'sorry mother ...just been caught up alot lately..." he said with some guilt°•°•
°•°• the princess gave him an assuring smile cupping his face, her thumb caressing his cheek as jace leaned in his mothers touch "it's alright my love no need to feel guilty, duties take a toll on a person and i hope you're not overwhelming yourself with it" rhaenyra said a bit sternly as her children's well beings will always come first°•°•
°•°•jace shook his head "i promise i won't mother ...s'just something has been bugging me ever since the ball and i don't know why..." the man said with a frown , rhaenyra sighed softly grasping her sons hands as she gave him a knowing look°•°•
°•°•"it's all up to her decision if she wants to flee here with daeron jace, you and i both know how her mother, grandsire and brothers will react if they find out that her and daeron wants to escape kings landing and reside here on dragonstone" jace sighed deeply°•°•
°•°•"but what if they hurt them mother...?" he asked ever so softly and quietly, rhaenyra knew how soft hearted and vulnerable her eldest son was "no harm will come to them my dear i promise you this, both her and daeron are the most bravest people i know and they have their dragons to protect them from every harm ...we must just wait until the right moment for them to stay here safely with us" reassured the woman as jace nodded°•°•
°•°•"i hope the wait isn't long" said the man sighing once more, rhaenyra smiled leaning up to kiss his forehead before giving him a warm look "go rest my love, you look exhausted...and please take it easy on yourself okay" jace nodded smiling gently to his mother before kissing her cheek leaving the room°•°•
°•°• rhaenyra watched him depart with a sadden smile, she didn't want him to feel this burden or any of such sort. she hoped to the gods her sister and young brother were safe and out of harms way—because she knew she would rain hell on the greens of any sort of harm is planted on helaena and daeron°•°•
°•°• the doors was again opened and incame jaelys pulling rhaenyra from her thoughts, the princess smiled at the sight of her wife "my love" rhaenyra met her halfway as jaelys returned the loving smile leaning down to place a sweet kiss on the short womans lips "my princess" she mumbled against her lips°•°•
°•°•the two pulled from the embrace as jaelys sighed deeply, clear anger was shown in her silver eyes making rhaenyra frown "what's wrong love?" she asked softly°•°•
°•°• jaelys handed the letter in her hold to her wife as rhaenyra took it looking to jaelys confused before her eyes turned to the letter. her eyes read the passage and shock filled her body
"what? have they lost their minds?" the princess asked in pure shock°•°•
°•°•jaelys hummed "my dearest uncle has grown the balls to question luke's legitimacy" the tall woman said with clear annoyance in her tone at the mans stupidity, rhaenyra scoffed glaring at the parchment paper before scrunching it up in her palm "they now summon us for this bullshit" said the princess with the same anger as her wife°•°•
°•°•the tall woman shook her head "the absolute audacity he aswell as those green cunts" mumbled jaelys as she wishes to rip their heads clean off their shoulder with her own bare hands°•°•
°•°•rhaenyra breathed out calming her anger as she turned to her wife "than off to kings landing we go..." °•°•
