    Summary

    Alicent Hightower first met the silver-haired witch when she was only five, and the other girl barely four.

    “What’s your name?” The girl asked with an unmistakable lilt, her blue eyes blinking.

    “Alicent,” Alicent said, and then as if remembering. “Alicent Hightower, of Oldtown.”

    “Okay,” the girl nodded. “I’m Rhaenyra. Do you want to come to my birthday party?”

    Summary

    “It’s only the first year,” Rhaenyra used to say, broken down at the breakfast table by the window in their London flat with her head in her hands. “It’ll get better, after this. We just need to right our ship.”

    It was loving in the beginning.

    Summary

    Everything about Alicent is rage inducing. The way she’s so awkward she can barely make eye contact, the way her hands shake when they're together in the same room, the way she looks at Rhaenyra like she’s the first person she’s seen in years. Oh, yeah, and the way she locked her in a freezing underground bunker.

    Summary

    It’s sometimes hard for Rhaenyra to comprehend how much her life has changed as of late.

    A year ago she was betrothed to her dear cousin. She was fighting at her uncle’s side in the Stepstones. Slaughtering men by day. Sharing her bed with whores by night.

    Rhaenyra thought that would be her lot in life. She was a second child— a forgotten spare in her father’s eyes on the best of days, and a cruel reminder of her mother’s violent death on the worst.

    But everything has changed, now. Rhaenyra never knew that life has so much more to offer.

    Summary

    "The wedding?" Alicent frowns. "But the prince is dead, Father."

    Otto smiles slowly. "Yet the princess lives."

    --

    A fortnight before his wedding, Crown Prince Baelon dies mysteriously in his chambers, aged just eight-and-ten.

    And so the Rogue Princess Rhaenyra is summoned back to King's Landing, not only as the new Heir to the Throne, but also Alicent Hightower's new betrothed.
