Summary
The worst part is seeing how pleased Helaena is, the visceral happiness she has found in the simple pleasure of a dance. Aegon never asks her to dance, never leads her out onto the dance floor and spins her around for all to adore.
He never treasures her, not the way he should. Not the way Aemond would.
(Not the way he does.)
--
Or;
Jace asks Helaena to join him in a dance, meaning to provoke Aegon in front of their family. The consequence of his action is far from expected.

Summary
Yet he knows no love will bloom between them, not like it might between Luke and Rhaena. He will be a good husband, gentle and faithful—the antithesis to every insidious rumour spread behind his back. And he knows Baela will be an exemplary wife, an upstanding Queen.
He wishes he loved her.
He wishes she could spark even a flicker of the warmth Aegon ignites within him.
--
Or;
When Jace asks Helaena to dance, everyone assumes Aegon's ire will be drawn in defense of his wife. Except he's more wounded by Jace's disregard for their shared past than any love for Helaena.
