Summary
Born the first daughter of Princess Rhaenyra and Prince Daemon, Daenya was a bastard legitimized by King Viserys. When she journeyed to King’s Landing to visit her aging grandsire, Daenya intended only to offer care and comfort in his failing years. But staying at court meant living in the shadow of the one man she loathed above all others—Prince Aemond Targaryen. Cold and merciless, he was her rival in blood and spirit.
Yet hatred was not the only fire that burned between them. His gaze followed her through every hall, sharp as a blade, relentless as flame. And though she swore it was hate alone that tightened her chest in his presence, another pull coiled deeper within her, growing stronger with every clash.
In a realm torn by war and betrayal, where loyalty is as perilous as love, Daenya must choose between the family who raised her, the crown that divides them all, and the forbidden feelings she never meant to kindle.(Notes: Some major events and timelines in this story have been slightly altered to better fit the narrative I wanted to explore. While inspired by the original universe, certain occurrences, character interactions, and sequences may differ from the official continuity.)

Summary
After the war, after the wound, Neteyam learns to lead from the planning ledge instead of the front line. You learn his body’s new limits as his healer, and then his mind’s burdens as his counsel. Seasons turn. The work is slow, the silences long, the trust between you a thing built in the quiet aftermath. This is how a future is forged; not in a moment, but in the thousand small choices to stay, to see, and to quietly, irrevocably, belong to one another.

Summary
Fíriel of Gondor made a fatal error: she refused the hand of Boromir, the Captain-General.
As punishment, the Steward Denethor has sold her to the North. She is to be the price of a new alliance with the Horse Lords. A bride for the Prince of Rohan to secure cavalry for the coming war.
But when Fíriel arrives at the wind-scoured hill of Edoras, she finds the Golden Hall rotting from within. The King is withered, the prince is absent, and the snake Gríma Wormtongue has altered the deal. Fíriel is not to be a Princess. She is to be pawned off on the King’s disgraced nephew: Éomer, the Third Marshal.
She is a lady of silk and high walls who prizes order. He is a warrior of wool and leather who smells of the stables.
Bound by a marriage neither wanted but united by a common enemy in the counselor who wishes them dead, Fíriel and Éomer must find a way to bridge the gap between Stone and Straw.
But first, she has to teach him how to take a bath.

Summary
“She was never meant to stay. He was never meant to love her.”
Born beneath the Morning Star, she moved like moonlight and breathed like the wind. The forests whispered her name. The creatures of Middle-earth followed her not with fear, but with love. She was a guardian of what the world forgot.
A protector of the wild and the wordless.
A light untouched by shadow… until now.
She walks the path with a sword drawn and sorrow held close, bound by silence, betrayed by kin.
But as darkness spreads, so does the truth.
No crown can hide it.
No silence can bury it.
This is not the story you’ve heard.
This is the one they tried to forget.Series

Summary
“He tastes my skin, Ninat. He breathes me in until my very bones feel like they are melting into the moss,” Neytiri whispered.
“He makes me beg for the Bond, and by the time we finally connect, the explosion is so great I think Eywa herself can hear my scream.”
Or, among the women of the Omaticaya, boasting about one’s mate is a source of competitive pride. But when Ninat suggests that the Sky-Man-turned-Olo'eyktan must be "clumsy" without the innate grace of the forest, Neytiri decides it is time to set the record straight.
