Aegon III (1)
Evening fell on the capital, he didn't want to make so much noise in the red keep, he didn't want to see the filthy lords gathered in the throne room around him, gobbling up their good food, and drinking expensive wine, He despised them in every sense of the word, and could not bear their presence in his presence... Why is it that they were celebrating with him? What can be done, it is a party for his wife, his wife who deprived her of so much because of him, she is not guilty of him being so foolish, and therefore deserves compensation.
_ " Brother, you are back in your wanderings again.” Viserys' voice came, sitting by him at the banquet table. His brother was brighter than him at least, and he was shorter than him. He inherited his mother's height, while he inherited his father's. He did not always wear black as he did, and today he shone in his red jacket and black. Targaryen colours.
“Fleeting is better than hearing the neighing of the singers there.” Aegon replied.
Viserys reacted with a chuckle, and as the servants laid out the dishes before them, roast pork, stews, fresh snails, strawberry shortcakes and lemon shortcakes. But he didn't seem interested in all of that.
Flowers revolve in eternity
Butterflies are flying happily in the plains
The heart has secrets
And one day the prince will return to his princess,
and kisses her, while singing to her of his love..
The song was nothing but a mere annoyance, and the noise the lords were making within the hall made him wish he could hide them.
_ " At least show your wife your concern bro, you know what they whisper about you? " viserys said while nibbling on a piece of cake.
_"It looks like I'll have to go out naked one day to end the argument about my manhood"
His brother laughed at his reply, and said, "Or you can take your wife on a trip, and then the doubt will end."
He raised an eyebrow: "Dwarf, take care of eating you there and don't bother me."
Viserys laughed again: "So my brother knows how to do it."
_ " I will kill you one day "
His brother stared at him and said: “What remains is how to open the matter with your wife, and this is really difficult.”
Aegon coughed and glared at Daenaera sitting at the far end, and when their eyes met, she widened her eyes.
Then he said, "You seem right about that."
Daenaera was usually very pretty, but today she was especially beautiful, more beautiful than ever. Her blue silk gown was shining, with golden fringes. Her long hair was tied back in a bun. And a light crown, with bright blue jewels, hangs on her forehead. Her eyes were alluring, blue as the sea, and her lips, pink, with her pale white skin.
Aegon swallowed hard as he looked at her face, feeling a strange heat invade his face.
The dwarf singer was hitting the drum from afar, while another singer was singing:
And he kissed her hard, and made her feel good ,
and take it under the bright sun,
And she cried a lot and said: This kiss is not enough.
One of the attendees approached the Queen and presented her with a beautiful bouquet of roses He bowed and said, "This is my present to you, Your Majesty, with His Majesty's permission, of course."
Aegon didn't comment. Instead, he looked into Daenaera's eyes, finding them sparkling, and signaled the man to give it to her. Daenaera took the bouquet and smelled it, and that face she made was the most beautiful face he had ever seen after his mother's.
Then he turned to his brother and said: "Make a royal speech to the damned, or crush them... I don't care."
Viserys sighed, "Well, well, my lord."
Then he rose from his seat, and there was silence in the hall, and all eyes were fixed on him, when he raised his cup of wine and said: 'Today, gentlemen, we are gathered here, in the name of King Aegon, third of his name, King of the Seven Kingdoms, Let's celebrate Queen Daenaera Velaryon's name day, I hope from this situation, that joy and joy will prevail in the kingdom, and for that I raise a toast to the King and Queen.”
Everyone raised their glasses and said, "To the King and Queen!"
Daenaera was beaming with her smile, and, he must admit, seeing her joy made her miss the filth of those present.
His brother came back to sit next to him and said, "Here we are done."
"You set me free from them, brother," spat Aegon.
Viserys drank some of the wine, and said, "Toast to your queen, and I think you'll need some wine tonight."
_ " I don't think she'll accept me, look, she's very happy with her ladies, and I don't want to disturb her."
Viserys laughed and said, "Of course she will accept you. How many times do I have to explain this to you? She is a woman now, and women like to be looked after by their husbands, so you can never doubt that she does not want you."
_"I learned not to argue with you, dwarf, you have a gift of persuasion like no other." Aegon said.
_ " Well you know how it works, or do you want me to tell you?"
_ " I would rather hear the singer's bray than delve into this."
Viserys laughed at him, and Aegon made no reply.
His eyes were focused on his wife, and how the sound of her laughter filled the place with joy. His sister Rhaena was talking with great happiness. And he thought it best not to disturb her with his unhappiness on such a happy day.
But what happened was completely unexpected. Daenaera rose from her seat and approached his seat. She stared into his eyes and said: “Your Majesty, I would like to thank you for this...”
_ " Do you like it? " he asked in a whisper.
Viserys asked his brother's permission and rose from his seat, Daenaera taking his place.
_ " So much, my lord, and I hope you are happy too.”
Aegon removed his eyes from her face, and said to himself: That's for granted, I'm damned indeed.
