A father's false love to his daughter causes havoc,
one that could lead a daughter to follow in the
steps of her father
"Have you rid of that girl?" the voice of otto hightower entered alicents ears as the queen hadn't bothered to remove her eyes from the view outside her window stall, she nearly sighed out deeply at the sight of her father in her courters where she wish not to be bothered
but she opted on a simple hum at his question, otto slow steps sounded throughtout the still room as he neared his daughter eyeing her sulk-ish form with suspension "and the tea you've given her?" he asked again now standing beside her
alicent closed her eyes for a brief moment trying not to think of the events that took place days prior "yes i have and she'll no longer be a problem father, i assure you" her tone low giving the man a verbal answer
otto hadn't seem pleased with the sight of his daughter as he turned his eyes down to her "the day comes soon where aegon is to take his crown, we not know how long the king might live ..mayhaps weeks ..days" that very conversation instantly brought a pain to alicents head "we must prepare ourselves for the outcome of aegon taking his rightful place, rhaenyra will sought out peace yes ..but daemon shall want war, along with his bastard.."
there, the queen took in a sharp breathe as she struggled to keep her composure "what does she have to do with all this? she is a drunk and cares not for the acts of war" she told the man sharply
otto rose his brow "yet she had the blood of daemon targaryen running through her veins, her loyalty to her family is as strong as his and she will want to side with rhaenyra when the time comes"
alicent scoffed lightly "what exactly does this concern i? you expect me to order her execution right after her uncle's death?"
the hand now looked out the window as he lightly shook his head "no ...i want you to do more to the bastard" his tone turned into one of suspension causing alicent to glance at him from the corner of her eye "what are you implying?"
"as you did with the king before..."
his words brought great shock to alicent, her brown eyes snapped to him bewildered "i beg your pardon?" she was beyond gobsmacked at what he said
yet otto hadn't met her gaze "you will do as you were taught, seduce and take the heart of zaenya targaryen—and once you've succeeded, demise of it until that bastard has nothing worth living for" his tongue witty and venomous almost, and each word he said made alicent look to him in disgust
"you think of me a whore? you expect me to bring myself to that low to ...use myself for your own personal gain?!" she rose her voice taking a step back
otto eyes turned sharp as he zeroed it to her "you will do as i say with no complaint alicent" he said with heavy sterness
alicents face morphed into one of disbelief, anger and disgust "i am the queen, i refuse to be used as a mere toy you can make use of whenever you see fit!" she spat
"a status i given to you, do not forget yourself daughter ...you wouldn't be in this position if it wasn't for i!" otto retorted back in slight anger, how dare she defy him
stillness overtook the room as alicent breathed heavily, angered tears began blurring her eyes as her heart dropped to her feet "..i-yo-you will not force me" she stuttered between heavy pants as a sob threatened to escape her throat
otto stomped towards her with his eyes flaring with rage as he took ahold of her arm forcing the woman to look to him "i can and i will, i want each and every one of those dragon abominations to perish until i see my blood sitting the throne for centuries. i have given you this royalty life when you were to inherit just a speck of dust, i worked hard to get my position as hand and gave you a luxury life, i made you queen and you will not take this opportunity away from me alicent!" yelled otto as he tightened his grip on alicents arm
the woman was frozen in fright as her brown eyes widened at the man standing before her, a man she had not known as her father no longer. flashes of this very conversation the night queen aemma had just passed on floaded alicents mind
otto narrowed his eyes "you will do as i said and you shall do it with no difficulty, understood?" alicent was silent for a moment—which the man hadn't liked so he harshly tugged her closer causing a gasp to let lose from alicent lips "do. you. understand" he hissed out each word
with hesitantation, alicent nodded
the hand calmed his anger as he released her before straightening himself, he eyed her frightened state as his hand reached out to touch her cheek. alicent flinched back as his rough hand caressing her cheek "i am doing this for us, for our house ..for your mother my daughter" the dagger just stuck deeper into alicents heart when he spoke, the mention of her mother just piled onto her conflicting emotions
otto sighed at her silence, the man leaned down to place a tiny kiss on her forehead—the woman shut her eyes tightly as a tear trickled down her cheek, soon after otto had left her courter
alicent finally allowed her tears to fall as she held her hand onto her mouth to prevent the loud sobs from falling out, warm tears rolled down her cheeks as her heart heaved. the green queen harshly wiped the kiss from her skin not wanting the presence nor the touch of her father onto her body, oh how she hated it
she wanted to despise him yet her manipulated mind conveyed the false love she held for him into her heart, the vivid green dress surrounded the ground in a grateful pool as the brunette crumbled to the ground with her palms buried in her face as her tears coated it
the rowdy noise crowded the night of flea bottom as the town was filled with life, dancing and drunken singing could be seen and heard, shows were performed and brothels were open for all to come as the sultry and sensual music played, naked women and men gave oncomers as show they'd never forget
that's where zaenya found herself, in the rowdyness of flea bottom, a place she was once fond of but now it brought her nothing but blandness for some odd reason. the ale in her hand and woman trying to get her attention bored her to the extent, eyes of two stayed looked with her beverage as she swirled it lightly before downing it slamming it on the table as an indication for another
without question, a fresh and filled jug was presented before her "has the rogue princess returned from her many adventures" the seductive yet familiar voice spoke from beside the tall woman, whom turned her head to meet dark eyes that stared her with different emotions
zaenya shrugged not having the energy to give a verbal answer as she chugged down her ale, the woman beside her chuckled "seems as though old habits never filter"
the tall woman rolled her eyes "hm sure" she said lazily leaning back on her chair with her legs spread comfortably "you're bothering me, why?" zaenya asked bluntly turning her low eyes to the woman who's name had been lysa. beautiful she was with long brunette hair casted down to her hips and eyes as dark as the night sky, her body slim and had a tad of tall height
much different from the brunette zaenya couldn't stop thinking of, who's brunette hair was curly rather than straight, whom had eyes of pretty brown that could easily sway her, every inch of alicent had ingrained itself in zaenya's mind that she simply not forget
realizing what she was doing, zaenya shook her head ridding her thoughts as the queens words replayed in her head causing the tall woman to resume her previous state "just wanted to catch up with an old friend" lysa smirked planting herself happily on the tall womans lap, her hands caressing the womans broad shoulders down to her chest before it rested just above zaenya's belt, a teasing look in lysa's eyes
zaenya tilted her head "still as desperate as i remember" her eyes flickered down the woman's body before slowly dragging it back up to her dark eyes "what? couldn't find anyone else to forsee your desires hm?" mocked the tall woman
lysa's breathing became shallow as the heat pooled at her stomach, her hips subconsciously moved in slight rhythm "..no one could compare to you.." said the woman breathlessly
zaenya hummed placing down her ale before her hand grasped a full of the womans hair tugging lysa's face to her, a gasp left the brunette's lips before it settled on a whine of desperation " ..need you zaenya"
zaenya from before would've crashed her lips on lysa, taken her to a room and fucked her senseless without a single thought—but things had changed
as lysa expected the lips of zaenya her, but to her surprise she had received the womans harsh words instead "get the fuck off me" zaenya said roughly releasing the grip on the womans hair before standing up from the chair not caring that lysa now fell to the ground
lysa sat on the ground in shock as her lips parted in surprise, zaenya didn't bother to even spare her glance as she threw gold on the table for her drink and left the brothel
and as she walked through the dark night, her mind drifted once more to the only brunette she wanted—yearned for, but she was to stubborn to face the woman after their last encounter
yet unbeknownst to zaenya, that very green queen had sat ok the ground in her courters forming a plan in her head—her father wish for her to trap zaenya in their hold once war is to come, but alicent had other ideas
A/N: ali and zaenya will release their unhingness after this😍 love that for them!
