Summary
There is nothing that she truly owns, nothing that she has for herself. The Bene Gesserit provided her with everything, even her own name, and in return she was theirs to mold as they saw fit. When Leto's advisors bought her she simply shifted from one patron to another. The room she's in, the paintings on the wall, the polished walnut table, the clothes in the dresser, the very bed she sleeps in—all of it has been given to her by the Duke of Caladan. Don't they understand that she has nothing?
Nothing, that is, save for this baby in her belly, the result of a single, conscious act of defiance, of love, of want. And she wants, more than anything, to be able to give Leto a son. She wants people to speak of her one day and say, Jessica—she was capable of betrayal. Jessica—she was capable of love. She bore her duke a boy, and he was destined for greatness.

Pre-canon. Jessica and Leto have an argument near her due date.

Summary
After the tragic death of Lyonel Strong in a fire at Harrenhal, King Viserys resolves to once again name Otto Hightower as the Hand of the King. That night, Viserys dreams of the dire future awaiting his family and the realm. The future he himself has inadvertently brought about.
Viserys decides to do everything he can to prevent that future and ensure that his daughter will one day ascend the throne unopposed.
Rhaenyra is not sure if she believes in the veracity of her father’s dream but, on the back foot against Alicent at court, the king’s newfound support is welcomed.
However, as Viserys’s obsession with clearing a path for Rhaenyra’s queenship grows, is it too late for Rhaenyra to reconcile with Alicent and mend the divide between their two families?

Summary
Padmé wakes to the back of Obi-Wan’s head, his hair mussed and his arms spread, outstretched over her knees as though to shield her from all that would come. (Too late, Padmé thinks, feeling the dull ache around her throat, where phantom hands tightened. Much too late for that now.)
