Summary
The words echo in Rhaenyra’s head, as her husband rises his cup, and drinks to her health.
Her father’s command was clear. Daemon has gone too far, this time. The king has a forgiven nature - but his brother has become too much of a threat.
You will marry him, Viserys said. And on your wedding night, you will kill him.
But the princess’ heart is traitorous, and her hand might falter.

Summary
“It scares them,” she said. “Men used to look at me with envy, imagining that they already own me. Now they always look away - they don’t even dare to ask me for a dance.”
As if my gaze could turn them to stones.
“Is that all it would take to win your heart, dārilaros? A dance?”
Daemon returns from the Stepstones, only to find out that Rhaenyra now wears a golden mask to scare her suitors away - one that she shall only take off for her husband.
It only drives him mad, for he needs to see her face.
He needs to win her hand.

Summary
“Good evening, my love,” he said. “I have been waiting for you.”
Rhaenyra swallowed as he slowly turned his face to her.
She quietly stared, both at her baby and the man holding him, with more tenderness that she had ever fathomed him capable of.
The rest of his words made her shiver.
“You never told me that I had a son.”
Almost a year ago, Rhaenyra ran away while carrying her uncle's child - but the chase is over. Daemon has found her. He would always find her.
The devil always comes for what he is owed.

Summary
“I need more,” she asserted. “A gift that would make amends for all of those years you’ve left me empty handed.”
Though Daemon already expected her answer, yearning to ensnare her within his ribcage, close to his heart, he couldn’t help but ask.
“And what would that be, princess?”
Inches from his mouth, his breath tickling in her ear, the princess exhaled.
“A child,” Rhaenyra said. “You’ll give me a child.”
Rhaenyra keeps Daemon prisoner in a tower, to prevent him from marrying another.
She won't allow it. The princess needs an heir, he will give it to her.
The devil has other plans in mind.

Summary
“You tried to run away again.”
Rhaenyra swallowed, softly tugging her wrists in an attempt to release a bit of strain, the knots around her bones too tight to get loose. Damp rope made the ties even tighter, she had learned over the months.
“I’m sorry.”
Daemon arched his brows, his hands strolling on her collarbone, her arms, rubbing dirt, chasing sweat.
“Are you?”
After a vain escape attempt, Daemon has his niece back in the chamber they share, far away from King's Landing. He wants to keep her safe, caged in his arms.
Rhaenyra cannot fathom safety, if he stays with her.
