Rhaena's Pov


I remember the day so clearly when a raven came to Dragonstone reporting Ser Harwin's death I was with mother sitting reading, I remember her falling to the ground crying, I remember Jace and Lukes tears when mother told them. I remember the day when another raven came saying that we had to go to Driftmark for a funeral of my Aunt Laena Velaryon. Furthermore, I remember my father's tears and shouts when he found out of the death of his beloved sister, I remember having to help him to his chambers when he was drunk.  I didn't cry for any of these news, my emotions were gone it felt like I was numb, a shadow just observing everyone around me. I know that it pained my heart, but I couldn't bring myself to cry.

We were on our way to Driftmark I heard cannibal roars as he flew above us, I was sitting in the carriage as my mother didn't want me to frighten the people of Driftmark with cannibal because he was just the most ruthless Wild Dragon on Dragonstone, and now he has a rider. We arrived and the funeral went on I was getting annoyed with how my uncle was side eyeing Jace and Luke and making comments throughout his speech it angered me and I knew Cannibal felt that I was getting angry, so he flew closer towards the area which made people gasp and everyone paused I spoke

" It's ok everyone he doesn't bite unless provoked to"  when I said this I stared right at my Uncle Vaemond, I heard my Uncle Daemon chuckle a little. We watched as they dropped Aunt Laena's body into the ocean, and I held onto my father's hand as they did so. I hated seeing him like this, so distressed.

I walked into the place where the wake was being held and all eyes went onto me, I guess no one could believe that me who is only but a child claimed Cannibal, the most ruthless dragon in Westeros . Not only that, I saw my grandmother Princess Rhaenys and went up to her, she smiled at me and I smiled back I then spoke saying

" My condolence's grandmother I know that this saddens you, but you must wear this as armor and never let her death break you" My grandmother smiled and said thanks to me, I started to walk around some more and went toward the table that had lemon cakes and ate one until I heard someone say

" So you claimed the Cannibal" I turned to see who it was, and it was Aemond I sighed when I noticed the jealousy lingering in his eyes we haven't seen each other and this is how he greets me , I then spoke uninterested saying

" I didn't claim him, he claimed me" Aemond looked even more jealous and spoke again

" it doesn't matter you're no true-born Targaryen anyway" I wasn't angry or hurt  when he said this it seems that our hearts weren't one , I just spoke again and said

" Aemond we haven't spoken in forever you haven't written to me , and the first thing you do is shout insults towards me I thought you would be happy for me, But do not forget im just as Targaryen as you , Hightower" I spat to him and walked pass him  we were both angry with each other he was angry with me because he thinks I left him all alone yet again and I with him because he doesn't act as if he's happy to see me as I was walking around I felt someone grab my arm and pull me towards them, It was Aegon he had this weird look on his face and pulled me closer to him that's when I smelt the wine on him. I wanted to gag
