Summary
Daeron Targaryen has spent his entire life since he can remember praying. Praying to be more Hightower than Targaryen, praying to be a lord that could make his Uncle Ormund happy, praying to get away from the clawing touch of his Uncle Ormund’s hands against his shoulders, pressing down on him, making him feel as much a maiden staring down the blade of a marriage even as his Uncle forced him to become a warrior.
And yet—
And yet, there is a part of Daeron’s soul that is lodged beneath Tessarion’s blue scales. There is a part of Daeron’s soul that itches to touch his dragon.
There is a part of Daeron that needs to get to his girl before he makes it out of this town.
“I need to get to her,” Daeron murmurs for the first time in his life, and for the first time in his life, his uncle nods at his side.
The fact of the matter is that Daeron doesn’t just have siblings that he’s never met and one uncle that sees him only as some sort of beacon only when he refuses part of himself.
He also has his Uncle at his side.
Daeron looks at Uncle Gwayne and he sees himself. Sees the parts of himself that are unclean, that are considered unholy, impediments to the grand Hightower design.

Summary
Sometimes a family can be you, your first wife, your second (secret) wife, your second wife’s husband (who is the brother of your first wife), the knight swore to your house, the son of your worst enemy, your shared children and the children of your brother.
Or: Targaryens and their queer costumes inadvertently saving their entire family and dynasty with the power of a polycule and good parenting.

Summary
“Your true mate will kneel before seven and carry green beneath steel. No dragon will bow its neck to them, yet seven dragons will answer the blood you make together.”
Daemon Targaryen is fifteen when a witch beneath Dragonstone tells him that he has a true mate.
She gives him a warning.
Daemon hears a promise.
For ten years, he convinces himself the prophecy points to Rhaenyra—until Ser Gwayne Hightower, Otto Hightower’s sharp-tongued omega son, knocks him from his horse before half the realm.
Gwayne is a knight who has spent his life fighting every man determined to make his designation more important than his sword. Daemon is an alpha prince who has spent his life mistaking blood for destiny, possession for devotion, and certainty for truth.
Neither wants the political marriage Viserys arranges between them.
Unfortunately, neither is very good at ignoring the other.
Fate may have named them. Choosing each other is another matter entirely.

Summary
In which Jaime and Cersei are not twins, and it changes everything, and nothing at all.
Or in which Jaime Lannister does not sit idly on the throne after killing Aerys, and history will sing a different tune.
