(guys my past chapter 'aegon named day' was published only half somehow, it got deleted or some shit so please read it before reading this. i wrote it again and its completed now.)

Aelana was seated next to Rhaenyra on a throne like seat, they both looked bored out of their wits.

King Viserys had not only sent his daughter princess Rhaenyra to find a husband but His sister too. HIs words were 'Aelana you better find yourself a man before I gave your hand away to Tyland Lannister'

that threat was enough for Aelana.

currently the lord of Blackhaven was telling the princess about his ravishing castles which he didnt possess. taking a stop from constant talking he took a huge breath in and walk to get a drink to lubricate his throat.

He was only interested in the princess, his words 'Princess is of much better age for me', completely forgetting that he was easily 15 years older than the king. than princess own father. He was so old that he was talking about Rhaenyra great grandmother.

sighing Aelana turned her head to look at Criston Cole, in the past two months Aelana had become good friends with Criston Cole. He was a good person, he cared about Rhaenyra more than he should.

He was polite and very grounded.

Criston also has been very grateful since he found out that Aelana had her hand in getting him his place in kings guard.

He looked at Aelana who questioned him "Tell me Ser Criston. your job is to protect us, shouldn't you be protecting us from these men?"

Criston tried to hide his smile and Aelana look away when her name was called. in front of her stood a little boy, no older than 12 saying "if you choose me Princess i may protect you from everything and High Lady your nights shall be safer next to me"

Aelana could feel smile coming onto her lips but she bit them and restricted her smile. the boy was already nervous and she did want him to be embarrassed.

But others didnt care

"The princess have a dragon and the high lady is a witch you dumb cunt. they don't need your protection" the boy said and Aelana shook her head "Thats Enough"

Her voice was drowned by the laughs of other men and the boy calling him 'craven'. the boy without wasting a second pulled out his sword, sword bigger than him.

Aelana immediately got up from her seat and Rhaenyra followed her "we are leaving" she announced and walked down from the stage with Rhaenyra by her side and Criston behind them.

What she didnt expected was Rhaenyra to say "Send words to the harbour and have Captain Oswin ready the ships. or I would happily row myself back to king's landing"

Still walking Criston looked at Aelana and she shrugged "do what the Princess says"

nodding his head he looked forward when their was a sound of flesh getting stabbed by the sword. Turning her head rapidly Aelana saw that the young boy had impaled his enemy.

"Don't look, Princess" said Criston while Aelana only smirked at the boy and winked at him, turning around she faced Rhaenyra "i like the little one"

____________________

Rhaenyra and Aelana were almost home. while Rhaenyra was standing at near the wheel looking at red keep, Aelana had decided to soak in the sunshine. Criston had told them both that they will be reaching to kings landing in the span of under an hour estimate.

Going back to same empty halls of red keep. same routine of getting up and doing nothing. Aelana wanted to do nothing but lay under the sun and enjoy its rays.
