Summary
Long have the maesters wondered what relationship the Lady Gwenys Blackwood held with the ill-fated Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen. The woman had been a member of the Princess' household since the year 112 AC, taken in as consolation to her House and her brother Samwell Blackwood, who lost the duel between himself and Amos Bracken for Princess Rhaenyra's hand. That the Lady Gwenys remained in Rhaenyra's service as one of her ladies-in-waiting is not denied, her loyalty to the Princess not doubted, however…

Summary
Laena Velaryon remembers living. She remembers dying. And she remembers the visions she had of a world so much like her own yet still so different. A world where she was older, married, a mother, a dragon rider, and... dead. Haunted by fragments of a possible future, she sets out to change her own fate and that of her family.
She casts her gaze upon Rhaenyra Targaryen, the future heir to the Iron Throne— the one she cannot allow to marry her brother. Rhaenyra looks back. Just not the way she was expecting.
Amidst political turmoil and courtly intrigue, Rhaenyra finds solace in her companion, Laena Velaryon. She also finds herself crushing. Hard. Not to mention her sudden promotion to Crown Princess. She is determined, though— a worthy heir. One day, she will sit on the Iron throne, Laena at her side as her queen consort.
That is, if Laena isn't married off before Rhaenyra can present.

Summary
She shakes her head. “What did you think this was going to be, Rhaenyra? Quickies in my office? You going to finger me in the lunch line?”
Rhaenyra quirks a brow. “I’d wait until we sat down, at least.”

Summary
“Who better to stand in my stead, to stand as the Crown,” Viserys raises his hands, like he’s about to shock them all with his wisdom, “Than its trueborn heir.”
Rhaenyra preens at the praise, the recognition. “Thank you, Father.”
“And the Queen.”
The smile drops from her face.
OR
[Post-1x06] The King sends Rhaenyra and Alicent to strengthen ties with the North. Alicent lasts two days with a chill that reaches her bones; and then she finds a solution.
