    The invitation is from Mother, to join her at table tonight. Lenora dismisses Theo, who nods and leaves with her reply. It makes her feel special – it is not often that she gets to dine alone with the Queen.

    Rhaenyra would not allow Alicent Hightower, that grasping bitch concubine, take what was hers.  What was promised.  What should have always been hers.

    Summary

    It was a picture of Jackie. She thinks it must have been one of the last ones, taken before the crash.
    “If you were here, you could convince them,” she said sadly.
    But if you were still here, would I be?

    Summary

    The Queen for a Day.
    That is what they are calling her.

    Truthfully, Alicent just isn’t sure the moniker fits. After all, it wasn’t a day. It was more like five or six hours. Prince Baelon lived longer.

    Summary

    “You forget, uncle,” Rhaenyra’s voice is equally cold.  “That the legitimacy of my sons was questioned. Aemond-,”

    “I know,” Aegon interjects. He does not care.  “I know that you wanted Aemond sharply questioned because of it.  As if the loss of my daughter’s eye was not enough for calling your sons-,”

    Summary

    Accompanied by her men, Jeyne rushes to the courtyard where the princes are.  She excepts to find Prince Aemond waiting for her, casually pressing a knife to his nephew's throat.

    But it is not Aemond Targaryen or his dragon.

    It is Helaena Targaryen and her Dreamfyre that awaits them.

    Summary

    When she looked up and saw the beautiful woman watching her, Alicent knew straightaway who she was.

    And even though she was a queen, Alicent Hightower fell to her knees, for even a queen is not above the Seven.

     

    Six weeks after the birth of her first child, Alicent receives a vision. It's now up to her.

    Summary

    Dyana could go to her.  She wouldn’t tell her everything because that would be too much.  The Queen, with her tender eyes and words, did not count.   People like the Queen have always been like the clouds to Dyana, a girl born in a lord’s castle but who was no lord’s daughter.   But Tessa wouldn’t need to hear anything, anyway.  She’d just sweeten her Pa into letting Dyana stay. Of course, she’d work for her keep. She is used to being on her feet all day in a large castle, an inn was nothing to that.    She has never fallen short in her duties.  She is not afraid of hard work.

     

    But she was afraid of leaving.

    Summary

    "Yet you toil still in service to men."  Princess Rhaenys' voice was flat, and she narrowed her eyes at Alicent.  "Your father, your husband, your son."

    If Alicent Hightower was still the girl she had been when she first wed Viserys,  she'd wilt.   The way she had that foul night at Driftmark when she understood how little regard the king could promise his own blood.
