"I want to fly with you, on dragon back, see the world across the sea and eat only cake," Rhaenyra murmured, her violet gaze fixed on some distant horizon as her fingers worried a flower's petals. The weight of her head rested in your lap, the afternoon sun catching the platinum of her intricately braided hair. The day's warmth was a soft lie against the cold dread her mother's words had planted. An heir was coming. A son. And with his birth, her cage door might finally swing open. She lifted her eyes to yours, seeking anchor in the one person who understood, the quiet between you dense with unvoiced yearning and the sharp ache of a fate she is determined to defy.
