"May I present to you, the House Lannister, my King and Queen." The King's Guard Commander announced the recent guest's entrance.

"Are you going to drink all night, Alexa?" Alicent whispers while I'm boredly looking at the guest.

"I don't know how to eat meat. I am very a sloppy eater." I retorted.

"May I remind you that I have a small trunk compared to you, I can't drag your drunk self out of the main hall." I laughed when she cued me.

"I can handle my tolerance for drinking liquors. Don't worry about me, m'lady. There are cavaliers here scowling their eyes at me because you're accompanying the King's bastard."

"I don't mind them, you should too. I'm just here because it is the princess's order." She rolled her hazel eyes.

"Even that gentleman? Next to my father?"

"That would be my father."

I was astounded by her statement, I hope her father doesn't think any hilarious about me and his daughter. "He's very close to the King."

"It's because he's the Hand of the King." I looked at her with another surprising information. "Stop looking at me like that, it's not the first time you heard about it."

"I know that the King has his loyal servant and wise adviser for his decision, I wasn't aware that your house name is very respected and ethical."

I saw the Lady Hightower blushing her adorable cheeks and hiding her face.

"My dear gentlemen and guests, it's been a long journey since my dear grandfather, Jehaerys, has been proclaimed to me and continued the realm to be at peace and unite." We heard the King's speech and everyone is paying attention to him now.

"And by saying unity, we are all gathered here today, in my home, to commemorate the day that my daughter was born. Let's all raise our glasses to witness the first entrance of Princess Rhaenyra in her 17th year of living."

The main hard doors opened again, and when I glanced in that way, she is shining like a sun, more wonderful than any other woman in this world, where every man and woman would bother to turn their stupid head to look at my beloved sister.

"To Princess Rhaenyra."

All of us together, "To Princess Rhaenyra." I smile when she looked at my post. I don't even realise how much I missed her.

I was just staring at Rhaenyra since she entered the hall, many young gentlemen and even the Lord's sons are occupying the princess's attention.

"If you want to worth your time with her, I suggest you should stand in there." Alicent notices my gaze on the princess.

"Forgive me, Alicent, but that is the silliest idea you recommended to me." She furrowed her eyes at me. "If Rhaenyra didn't mention this but her mother hates me. Like she loathes until I die."

"You are there for your sister, not for the Queen."

"I just don't want to start any upheaval as she sees her husband's first daughter."

"Well, if you didn't come there and give yourself a chance, I guess you will be stuck with me the rest of the night."

"I see no reason to argue with that notion." I smiled at Alicent and she chuckles.

"Let's all witness the first dance of the princess and her father, our King, King Viserys."

People gave the father and daughter pleasant warm applause, and the song changed into a slow melody as my father and my sister began to dance together.

I was never been desirous of Rhaenyra, I do perhaps admire her and she's more perfect than I am. I'm always delighted by the way I looked at her cheerful and vibrant, it keeps me satisfied when I'm around her.

I admit to myself that Rhaenyra captured my stone-cold heart, I was reckoned to despise her, nonetheless, she knows a way to make me vulnerable and gentle.

"I need to speak with my father for a while, Alexa. I presume you will be all settled here by yourself?" Alicent caught out my thoughts.

"I'll be fine all night by myself, Alicent. Take your time with your father." I smiled.

"I'll remind the princess to visit your post."

"No need for that, the princess is preoccupied with this time." I was pointing out that Rhaenyra is dancing now with her uncle.

"Then I'll make it quick."

"Don't bother. Have a great night, Lady Hightower."

I found myself alone on a balcony where the party itself is far from here. I like quiet and simple, that's the reason I don't find myself to live in here. I'm better as a king's bastard daughter.

"Keeping yourself away from the crowd?" I heard a high Valyrian language and I chuckled at her tone.

"You know that I love silence more than loud noises." I replied in high Valyrian too.

"I know, that's why I found you here." Rhaenyra smiled at me and it was a beautiful view from my sight.

"It's your party, your grace. Why are you in here?"

"You were out of my sight, sister. Of course, I need to know your whereabouts."

"I am not that important to leave your party, Princess Rhaenyra. The King and Queen will miss you inside as well as your visitors."

"I don't care. Besides, do you have any presents for me?"

"Why?" I teased her.

"Because it's my birthday, you silly." We laughed as she pushed my shoulders.

"Of course, I would never forget about that, and also, I made this for you."

"Really?"

"Close your eyes and show me your wrist." Rhaenyra followed my request while showing off her sweetest smile at me.

I yanked the box from my pocket and took the bangle from it while locking it on her wrist. I let her reveal her eyes and she was optimistic about my present.

"This one would be my favourite gift." She told me and I blushed.

"That's made from Valyrian Steel and I carved it like a sun."

"Is it because I'm more like a sunshine every morning?" I giggled at her message.

"Aside from your presumptions, I chose the design for the sun because someday, our father will name you as the heir of the Iron Throne, and I believe that you will rise and give light to your people. You will lead them to a brighter world, Rhaenyra."

I cupped her small face as I cheered her. "And your partner will be the moon, you will help him glow even in the darkest time."

"Him?" Rhaenyra asked.

"You need a husband, dear sister. What do you expect?"

"I suppose I can rule the realm without being wedded."

"I think it is part of the regulation, your grace."

"Then I choose you."

I laughed at her and turned my back on her. "We've talked about this, Rhaenyra."

"I don't trust anyone but you, Alexa. If you want me to be your Future Queen, then I prefer you as my partner."

"I believe we're beyond in our main subject, Rhaenyra. Let's just enjoy our night as we rejoice in your birthday."

"Why do you always look at me like I'm a child, Alexa?!" She was being frantic with me.

"It is because you are still a child, Rhaenyra. What is your problem?"

But the princess didn't move nor reply, yet she continues to glare at me and I just sighed.

"Fuck. Come on."

"Where are we going?"

"To make your mind at ease, your highness." I madly replied while pulling her light body.

Our walk was a long journey, we take easy steps to go through pass the guards until we reach the dragon's pit. "We were almost caught by the guards." She whispered.

"Yes, I know, and if we saw then I will be dead tomorrow, so be patient my princess."

Rhaennyra and I entered the quiet arena and it has enough light to see her. "Now we are here, Alexa. What do you want now from me, apparently, you just kidnapped me."

I started to unbutton my white sleeve while my eyes are keep focused on Rhaenyra's. "W-what are you d-doing?"

I successfully removed my upper clothes and was only left with long single cotton that covers my breasts. "Will you still want me even if I have multiple scars printed on my body?"

Rhaenyra quickly moved as she cupped my face and hungrily ravished my lips. "Your flaws make you perfect, Alexa. And I'm glad you let me see you solely."

"You are wrong princess, my pants are still on." I smirked at her.

"I thought you don't want me?"

"Who says?"

"But-"

"Do you want to continue or should I bring you back to the castle?"

Rhaenyra and I stared at each soul of us and I was so eager to take her virginity.

"Fuck me, Alexa."

"With pleasure, my princess."
