    Summary

    Lyra Lannister has been promised as a second Wife to Prince Maekar "The Anvil" Targaryen, and their personalities clash. Both of them trapped in an engagement neither of them want. She knows the reason for the marriage, how her father had intended to side with the Blackfyres in the first Rebellion. Lyra had reasons that caused him not to follow through. When Bloodraven had discovered this, the marriage was the only solution to prove the loyalty of the golden family to the royal one. AS well as to figure out the secrets that the lions posses.

    Maekar's younger children grow fond of her and her little Sister Leta, causing Maekar to soften around her just a little bit.

     

    So, what happens when the lioness finally gets her claws into the brooding dragon?

    Summary

    Princess Aelora Targaryen, the only daughter of Crown Prince Baelor Breakspear, has always lived the life expected of a princess. Admired throughout the realm and bonded to a dragon of her own, her future has long been decided. Wanting her to become more involved in politics and the affairs of the realm, Baelor entrusts her to the one man he believes is capable of preparing her for what lies ahead—his younger brother, Prince Maekar Targaryen.

    Recently returned to King’s Landing to oversee the city’s defenses, Maekar has little interest in mentoring his headstrong niece. What begins as an unwilling partnership slowly turns into friendship through political lessons, dragon flights, and countless days spent together. But somewhere along the way, the line between duty and desire begins to blur.
