Summary
This is an au where Rhaenyra is tired of arguing with her father because she hasn't chosen yet a consort and simply wants to shake him off. So when her father brings up the topic for the umpteenth time, she makes an impulsive decision: she declares that she has chosen her consort, Prince Jon Targaryen (Well, it must be said that all this took place after her best friend, Alicent Hightower, confessed to her that she had a crush on her cousin (Jon), but Rhaenyra, after a misunderstanding, had understood that she was talking about her other cousin, Laenor.)
Prince Jon Aenar Targaryen, who had settled in the Free Cities after a nasty fallout with his father, Prince Daemon Targaryen, received an invitation to attend the feast hosted by his uncle, King Viserys. The invitation came with three letters: one from his uncle the King; one from his cousin Rhaenyra; and one from his father, Daemon, inviting Jon to attend with the not-so-veiled threat that if he refused, he would storm (and take up residence) in his mansion on his dragon (Jon couldn't allow that).
Nothing could have prepared him for his cousin Rhaenyra trapping him into a marriage the very same night—did he mention that he already had a daughter? A total mess.

Summary
The world was burning again.
Smoke rolled through the crumbling corridors of Hogwarts, curling black fingers through the stone like ghosts reaching for the living. The scent of fire and fear hung thick in the air — acrid, metallic, almost sweet. Draco Malfoy stumbled through the ruins, his pale hair streaked with soot, his wand trembling in his hand. The Great Hall was gone, the battle nearly over, and he could feel the weight of every choice he had made pressing down on his chest like a curse.

Bottomond Week - Friday: Dark
Отто знал, кто бы идеально пришёлся ему по вкусу.
Ясно, как день: тот, кто знает порядки его мира, хорош собой, воспитан и обучен, поймёт цену его симпатии и не станет искать счастья где-то ещё. Кто-то, кого не станут искать, потому что нет смысла его прятать — он ведь и так всегда на виду.
И совершенно никому не нужен.

Summary
The Seven Kingdoms teeter on the brink of civil war. With King Viserys’ health fading, factions rise within the Targaryen dynasty. At the heart of the conflict lies Otto Hightower, whose schemes have placed his daughter Alicent and her firstborn son, Aemond, in a bid for the Iron Throne. Alicent is as cunning as she is ruthless, and with Otto's guidance, Aemond stands ready to claim his birthright by any means necessary.
Opposing them is Rhaenyra, the king’s declared heir, fiercely clinging to the power of her dragons and the 'superiority' of her bloodline.
The realm is already divided. Lords whisper in dark corners, waiting to declare their loyalty - to the Greens, who gather behind Alicent and her son, or to the Blacks, who would follow Rhaenyra. Bloodlines stretch across the kingdoms, binding lords and ladies to the fate of the Targaryens.When the flames of war are ignited, Otto Hightower will ensure that his family stands triumphant over the ashes. In this deadly game, the dragons may roar, but it is the ruthless ambition of the Hightowers that will shape the fate of the realm.

Summary
Chapter 1: On the eve of Prince Aegon's birth, King Viserys (completely oblivious to certain minor details, like the entire court questioning his son's paternity and the suspicious closeness between his Queen and heir) celebrates with a grand royal hunt.
Unfortunately, the joyous occasion is cut short with an entirely coincidental (totally not orchestrated by Otto Hightower no matter what this court says!) accident leaving the King permanently out of the fatherhood game.
Chapter 2: Alicent is giving birth to Aegon. The birth is far more difficult than anyone imagined.
“In the event that a turning fails... there is a chance we may save the child,” Mellos said, his eyes downcast. “A technique, taught at the Citadel… it involves cutting directly into the womb to free the- ack!"
That was as far as the Grand Maseter got before Rhaenyra violently took him by the throat.
Like hell, he will.

Summary
Viserys cleared his throat and attempted to exude a commanding kingly presence that he had never been able to master. He turned to his brother before the small council. “You are to marry the lady, Alicent Hightower.”
Ice filled Alicent’s veins. This was bad, very bad. While she may have harboured a little crush on the rogue prince this wasn’t what her father had wanted. Rhaenyra would no doubt be furious at her. She looked up seeking out her best friend finding her cold gaze fixed on her uncle. Alicent followed her gaze watching her intended’s slight frown turn to a lopsided smirk as he appraised her. She was going to be ill.
or, what if Alicent had married Daemon instead of Viserys.
