"Help me out of the tub." Aemond rushed to your side and helped you stand. Elyas started getting fussy in Aegons arms and Aegon started bouncing him softly in his arms, just like Aemond showed him. "Get me a night dress and robe, the maternity ones." You grabbed a towel as Aemond searched for what you requested.

"She shouldn't know yet." Says Aegon.

"Aegon she's going to find out anyways." You say, drying yourself off with a towel.

"She will hate me more than she already does."

"She does not hate you Aegon, she is our mother and she loves you," Aemond tells him and helps you step into the silky dress.

"Easy for you to say." He snaps. "You're her golden child, can do no wrong in her eyes."

"That's not true," Aemond grumbles. "After we tell her everything, we'll see." Aegon just scoffed and turned his face back to his son. As you walked to the bed, holding onto Aemond as you were still weak, neither of you noticed Aegon had walked away from the sight of the door and hid behind a wall.

"Aegon!?" Aemond sat you down and grabbed your legs and swung them onto the bed. Voices and loud footsteps were coming to the door.

"I would like to see my newest grandchild and you cannot deny me this." Aemond sat at your legs and grabbed your hand so he could squeeze them reassuringly. The door burst open to reveal the red(almost brown)headed woman.

“My son.” Before Aemond could say anything she grabbed his face and kissed his head. She then turned to you and placed a hand on your shoulder.

“You did well.” You gave your best but it dropped instantly. “Boy or girl?”

“Boy but Alicent-.”

“Where is he?” She completely cut you off and turned around in search of Elyas.

“He’s right here mother.” Alicent hears the voice of her oldest son and turns to see Aegon walking out from where he was hiding with the newborn in his arms.

“Aegon?” She was confused as to why her son was holding his nephew when she remembered the struggle she went through to even get him to visit Helaena all those years ago. “I did not expect to see you here.”

“I know.” He gave Alicent a tight-lipped smile before looking down at Elyas. “This is Elyas Targaryen.” He gently and slowly passed the babe to Alicent and she gladly took him. “My son.”

It seems like time stopped at that point. Everyone hitched and held their breaths as they waited.

“What?”

“Elyas is my son, but he is also Ae-.”

“You were unfaithful to my son!?” She instantly turned to you, a murderous look in her eyes. Her question caught you off guard and you raised your hands in defense.

“No, it's not what you think.”

“Then please, enlighten me. Enlighten me on how you ended up with a bastard son.” The three of your fists all clenched in anger.

“Mother enough, do not call our son a bastard,” Aemond says, sternly.

“Our son? Aemond how could you stand by and-.”

“Twas I who was unfaithful.” Alicent looked at him in disbelief. “It's my fault this has all happened, I hurt her, twas fair she did the same. But I’ve accepted it.”

“Accepted it? It doesn’t matter what you have done she is your wife, supposed to stand by your side at any cost.” You looked away and sighed.

“Do not say such idiotic atrocities mother, you believe women should bow down to men always, well in this case tis not, we’re equals.” You turned back and looked up at Aemond, his words made your heart flutter.

Alicent just scoffed and turned harshly to her eldest son who was standing there awkwardly.

“Did you force yourself upon her? Trick her as you do?” She questions him and Aegon shakes his head immediately.

“N-No I wouldn’t do that- I don’t do that anymore. I’ve changed. I'm better now.”

“As if. I spent so much time trying to make you better, and just now you say you are.” She got very close to his face and started him down. You saw Aegon’s lips quiver and a tear run down his face. You reached up to grab Aemonds arm and tugged at it. He held his hand out to say he’s got it. Alicent shakes her head and turns to leave, but before she could Aegon says something.

“We are marrying. The three of us.” Alicent could not believe what was happening. “I love them, they make me happy. Happiest I’ve been in a while. And if you can't accept it, so be it.”

Alicent didn’t look back.

“I will be here for Rhaegar’s name day, after that I’m gone and you’ll never see me again.” With that she slammed the door behind her, the noise waking up Elyas.

“We should get ready for bed,” Aegon mumbled and walked to the other side of the bed. Crawled on top of it and leaned down to kiss Elyas’ head. “Goodnight.” He kissed you gently on the lips and looked at Aemond but his brother was facing away from him.

“I'm sorry she said those things,” Aemond says as you bring your breast out to give to Elyas.

“It’s alright.”

“It's not.” Aemond sat back down.

“You’re right I know, but she’s right that he is a bastard.”

“Nobody has questioned it.”

“People have been whispering for months, just a matter of time until everyone knows.”

“Ok. When the time comes we ask Rhaenerya to legitimize him, so then nobody can say anything.” Aemond placed a hand on your cheek and you nodded.

“Does that sound good Aegon?” You ask and turn to him, but he didn’t answer. He was already curled up in the blanket, trying not to let his sniffles catch your attention.

As Elyas finished, Aemond got ready. Elyas pulled away and was asleep in seconds. Aemond took him away after you kissed his soft head, placing him in the crib right next to the bed. Aemond kissed his head as well then join you under the covers. You turned your back to him and he wrapped his arms around you, not before taking off his eye patch.

“Goodnight my love.” He whispers but you don’t respond, just looked at Aegons back. You then reached out and wrapped an arm around his torso and brought him back closely. You rested your head on his shoulder blade and placed a kiss on it. Aemond watched it happen before reaching out farther and wrapping his arm around Aegons waist. His long arms gave him the advantage.

Aegon shuddered at your touches but relaxed into them. He loved it. You slowly weaved your hand into his and entwined them. Aemonds cold fingertips danced along his stomach.

“It's going to be ok.”

“We’re going to be ok.”
