   Summary

   Daemon leaves Rhaenyra at her wedding feast. Rhaenyra marries Laenor. After a year of trying to do their duty and produce an heir, Rhaenyra writes to Daemon.

   She needs a true Targaryen heir.

   It only needs to be an arrangement of business, she says. And it would result in Daemon's child one day taking the Iron Throne.

   Daemon accepts the proposal and returns to court.

   Only ventures like these are never simple. As much as they would wish to, Daemon and Rhaenyra cannot let go of the past, or the feelings they once had for each other.
