Thank you so much for your support. Every notification and every hit on this story means the world to me. Also you are free to comment and let me know your thoughts. I'm not sure yet if I will fill in some blanks that the show left open to interpretations.

If you would like to. I can do it, just let me know. I'm doing it by analyzing their body language and guessing their thoughts.

Chapter 2: Fire without blood

Rhaenyra had the worst six months of her short life. Her father hadn't talked to her since the funeral, just the essentials so she knew when the Small Council would meet or when he would go to break his fast so she could join in.

Everything was awkward between them. She was the crown princess but she didn't have a seat in the small council and she didn't have a voice. Lord Corlys wanted help with the Stepstone and Otto and her father denied it, because they didn't want war against the Free Cities.

But she knew that, if the crown showed strength using all their fire power, they couldn't dare to touch them or even try to invade them but according to her father she was too young and wouldn't understand this.

They even sent her to pick a new member of the King's Guards and she decided to pick Ser Criston Cole. It was a mix between making Otto upset and a thoughtful decision because they needed a fine knight that knows how to fight, also he was really handsome and caught her eye that day at the tournament.

Her week got better after sharing a nice moment at the Septon praying with Alicent, she wasn't a religious girl but still found some comfort whatsoever. And she didn't want to count the awful view of her cousin with her father, walking around their gardens. She was nauseous to imagine that her father had to wed her.

Comfort that went out when the small council had an emergency meeting later that day.

The dragonpit main guard, standing before the council, had scratches on his face and arms and even though she could tell he had some blood on his face, she looked shaken by the incident.

"It occurred in the blackness of the night, my lords, during the hour of the Bat. The thief eluded our pursuit"

"How is it possible that a dragon's egg was stolen out from beneath more than fifty Dragonkeepes?" asked her father.

"It was Prince Daemon who was the culprit, Your Grace" The mention of her uncle, who left without a word and she later found out what he said about Baelon, made her feel a mix of emotions. She missed him and their conversations, she missed his handsome face after a race around King's Landing but also she was upset because of what he said and because of that he was forced to leave the city and her.

In fact, she stopped wearing the necklace he gave her as a protest for it.

As the lords in the council discuss a letter Daemon left behind, her mind starts to work, wondering why he did it. She was aware of his impulsiveness and reckless behavior but this was too random, even for him. Then a realization hit her and she decided to ask.

At first she was breathless and her question didn't get out loud enough, but she found the strength and asked "Which egg did Daemon take?"

The Dragonkeeper looked down, he didn't look comfortable with the question, her father looked with expectation at the keeper "The egg was Dreamfyre's, princess" he made a small bow with his head, looking at her "The same that you chose for Prince Baelon's cradle"

The realization made her feel disappointed in her uncle, and she could tell her father felt the same. He immediately decided to send people to Dragonstone, he wanted to go but Otto said no because he was worried her uncle could do something nasty to him.

She left the room with a knot in her stomach and a burning feeling in her chest, a mix of anger and disappointment, so after a few minutes of elastation she took her rider clothes and changed quickly. She knows that her uncle hated Otto and Otto hated him so, there will be a bloodshed.

She got to the Dragonpit and after she got Syrax ready she got on her dragon and gave the other "Fly Syrax" and the dragon took off and they flew to the island that will be her home someday when she comes of age.

The day was cloudy, especially around the castle. She and her dragon arrived after passing through a big cloud. She looked at Daemon with his men on one side and on the other there was Otto with his. Thank the gods they didn't begin to fight, then she realized Caraxes was there so Otto was at a disadvantage.

So now she was there to even the odds. Syrax found a place to let her jump off her saddle. Her dragon made some noises to Caraxes and he answered them, she smiled a two were good friends, even when her uncle's dragon was grumpy.

Her eyes met her uncle's and she could tell he looked pleased. He fulfilled his desire to bring someone from the family to meet him.

She walked to Otto, the guard bowed to her as she did.

"What are you doing here, Princess?" Otto asked.

"Preventing bloodshed" she said, her tone cold looking between Otto and Daemon.

"Ser Criston , please escort the Princess to safety" ordered Otto.

"Take care not to startle Syrax, my lords. She's rather protective of me" the guards looked at Syrax with scared expressions and touched the princess. And just like a half a year ago, she walked to him. This time the excitement was gone and replaced with bitterness. She made sure he saw that she wasn't wearing his necklace and she was pleased to see a little bit of disappointment in his eyes.

"My father named me Princess of Dragonstone. That is my castle you're living in, uncle"

"Not until you come of age" he answered her.

"You have angered your king"

"I don't see why. This is a day of celebration. I am to be wed"

"You already have a wife"

"Not one of my choosing" he said bitterly, looking at her. She didn't know why the look in his eyes made her shivers when he said that.

She made a sound with her tongue, something he usually does in a sarcastic way "And this required you to steal my brother's egg?" . She could feel some tears wanting to run out of her eyes but she managed to hold them in. He noted this and felt the need to hug her but also hold himself from doing that.

"You shared your cradle with a dragon when you were born. I want the same for my child" he said, getting closer to her, holding her stares, challenging her.

She held his stare and smirked sarcastically "You're to have a child?"

He turned to Mysaria, or in Otto's words his whore, and answered "One day" after that she left, he turned to see her leave then turned again to face his niece. Rhaenyra knew she understood their conversation because she stormed out angry.

He looked at Rhaenyra, silent for a minute or two, did she make it on purpose to force her to leave? he couldn't tell, her eyes were cold.

She switched to the common tongue of Westeros and said "I'm right here, uncle. The object of your ire, the reason that you were disinherited. If you wish to be restored as heir, you'll need to kill me. So do it, and be done with all this bother"

Rhaenyra and Daemon felt fire running through their veins. Her speech made him realize she truly was the blood of the dragon and she was a great heir to the throne. She wasn't like his brother, weak, but strong and fierce.

If they weren't surrounded by so many people, he could kiss her right here, just because of her guts to face him.

He looked at her in silence and so did she. He looked around to Otto and his men, looked at the egg and after a couple of more minutes he turned around and walked away, throwing the egg at Rhaenyra, she caught it and saw him leaving.

He will need either a good blowjob or use his own hand to ease the pressure inside his pants because that little performance of the Princess of Dragonstone and crown Princess made him more excited than expected.

She, on the other hand, looked at him smiling a little. He was such a big child that was causing a mess for attention, she put the egg in its place and left the castle back to the Red Keep.

She was proud of herself and she faced her father, telling him her thoughts of him taking a new wife. Neither she imagined the final decision of the king. Taking her best friend as his new wife...

OOooOOooOO

Hope you enjoyed it. Let me comment and like, favorite or a kudo. It helps out a lot to encourage me to continue.

Next episode doesn't have a moment with these too so I might jump to episode 4 or maybe I will do something different from Daemon's point of view.

Read you on the next one.
