    Summary

    Helaena marries Aegon knowing one thing— he is incapable of closeness. Whether it is bearing his soul or sharing a bed, Aegon Targaryen refuses to let anyone close. For the first few years of their marriage — having been married in their late teen years — Helaena did not mind being at an arms-length. If anything, she preferred it.

    Yet with age came uncompromising responsibility— and they had dodged their grandest task since their wedding night.

    Children.

    Pressed by the Small Council, Helaena is to produce a bloodline to strength Aegon’s claim. A claim he has refused that he has. A claim he does not want. A claim he will make no attempt to assure for himself.

    Helaena and Aegon had never been as close as a married couple should be and under the expectations the Council has pressed upon them, whatever shreds of liking they feel for each other wear thinner and thinner each day.

    Reconciliation is what Otto Hightower believes it will take for Aegon and Helaena to grow closer and bear children— but what if there is no relationship to reconcile at all?

    Summary

    Aegon and Helaena are the first two children of Queen Alicent. Before courtly whispers and Kingly expectations were put on their young shoulders, they were each other's shadow and protector.

    Is there a universe where Aegon and Helaena freely choose to love each other? Where Helaena's dreams are listened to?

    Summary

    Aegon did not dislike her, even for a time his little sister had been his favorite playmate; when the mother was with the frail baby Aemond all day long; when she would come to him unthinkingly for comfort; when he was the only guardian knight in his sister's world.

    He wasn’t good enough.
    And Helaena was too nice and kind.

    But he still reached for her.
