" He has your hair, Your Grace "

" He does have my hair " Viserys said smiling.

Aegon held onto his mother tightly as everyone dotted on him, the young Targaryen Prince was very clingy towards his mother and he refused to be held by anyone but her and he even cried when Viserys held him, which annoyed the king greatly.

" He has your eyes, Your Grace ".

" Yes yes, he does " Viserys said pinching Aegon's cheek causing him to fuss and lean into his mothers shoulder " And you have my nose, don't you ".

Suddenly Tyland Lannister interrupted them " Your Grace, I bring urgent news from the Stepstones.........The Crabfeeder has dug in for siege on Bloodstone, while his men sabotage our fleet under the cover of dark".

" Not today, Tyland " Viserys dismissed.

" The matter of the Stepstones is regrettablely urgent " Tyland urged.

" It's been three years, it can wait another three days " Viserys said giving his wife annoyed look before walking away " Come eat, fortify yourselves for the journey, please ".

Arianne looked at Tyland worried about what was going on in the Stepstones but more importantly worried about Daemon, The Rouge Prince and The Queen had gotten closer with their distance from each other and had been sending letters to each other.

Arianne had noticed that Viserys had grown frustrated, so she handed Aegon to a wet nurse which caused him to cry for his mother. She walked closer to Viserys and the men that surrounded him as he yelled out " Now would someone tell me...where in the seven hells Rhaenyra might be ".

Arianne walked out to the godswood and finds Rhaenyra sitting beneath the tree reading as a entertainer Samwell sung to her.

" Rhaenyra " Arianne called out as she walked closer to Rhaenyra " What are you doing? ".

" What does it look like, My Love " Rhaenyra said as she continued to read.

Ever since, Arianne and Rhaenyra had kissed, they have been together it has been hard hiding it but it was worth it knowing they were finally together. It was especially hard for Arianne who has been married to the king for three years now and had gotten pregnant with their first child Aegon a year into their marriage and she hated it the birth was long and hard but as soon as she saw her sons face she didn't care that she was married to the king or that she was made to produce heir like a broodmare, they were also expecting another baby and Arianne was due in a few months but the only thing keeping her from going mad was Rhaenyra, Aegon, Daemon, who had been sending her letters, when ever he could and Cregan Stark, who had been a good friend to her.

" Your father's looking for you " Arianne said " It's your bother's name day.....he....I would like it, if you would be there to celebrate ".

" Half-brother " Rhaenyra corrected looking at her girlfriend.

" You've always been awful at celebrating anyone's name day but your own " Arianne laughed before ordering the entertainer " Samwell, your presence is no longer required ".

Samwell nodded bowing before he leaves.

" The royal hunt readies to depart " Arianne said.

" I've decided not to go " Rhaenyra said vaguely as she stood up and walked over to Arianne.

" You're going.....I'm not going to survive this hunt without you " Arianne said with doe eyes that made Rhaenyra sigh and cave, the Princess grabbed the shorter girls hand and dragged the heavily pregnant queen away.

⎯

" Well, isn't this splendid " Viserys said as he, Arianne, Rhaenyra, Alicent, Aegon and two wet nurses were riding in a carriage to the camp " The whole of our family off to celebration and adventure in the Kingswood".

Rhaenyra stayed silent as she and Alicent sat close together in comfort, suddenly the carriage hit a bump in the road causing it to jilt and Arianne groaned silently as her stomach turned.

Alicent and Rhaenyra looked at her in worry.

" Should you be travelling in such condition? " Rhaenyra asked worried.

" The maester said being out in nature would do me some good " Arianne answered shifting into a more comfortable position as Aegon crawled into her lap and began to show her a wooden dragon toy that he held. Arianne was very much into the arts, she enjoyed painting and had taken recently to carving and had the wooden toy for her son and it was his favourite.

" Well, you will be with your own child sooner than later " Viserys said smiling at Aegon, who was still perched comfortably into his mother's lap " And make me a proud Grandsire ".

Rhaenyra gave her father a look as Alicent grabbed her friends hand in comfort.

" It's not so bad " Arianne chimed as Aegon who had discarded the toy and began to played with the rings adoring his mother hands " The days are long, but Aegon came quickly and without fuss " Arianne smiled reassuringly at her lover before smiling down at her son.

But the wet nurses gave each other a look which told Alicent and Rhaenyra that it wasn't true.

It was silent before Viserys spoke " You should ride out with me today.....join in the chase ".

" I'd rather not " Rhaenyra dismissed with dismay " The boars squeal like little children, when being slaughtered.......I find it discomforting ".

" It's a hunt Rhaenyra " Viserys said before asking " How would you like to participate? ".

" Not sure, why I must? " Rhaenyra questioned.

" Becasue you are my daughter......The Princess " Viserys said " And you have duties ".

" As I'm ceaselessly reminded " Rhaenyra muttered causing Arianne to look at her lover in sadness.

" I'm sorry " Viserys snapped.

" As I'm ceaselessly reminded " Rhaenyra said louder.

" You wouldn't need to be reminded, if you ever attended to them " Viserys said.

" No one's here for me " Rhaenyra snapped as the carriage arrived and Arianne looked at Rhaenyra sadly before walking out of the carriage.

" Hail, hail Aegon, the conqueror babe, second of his name " Arianne's uncle cheered as a wet nurse handed Aegon to Viserys, the young prince then began to fuss and reached out to his mother, who grabbed him smiling " Second of his name.......here's to his grace on his second name day ".
