   Summary

   You were the (legitimized) eldest daughter of Daemon Targaryen; in spite of this, Aemond was drawn to you: the lady equally adept in swordsmanship and charming cheek. To quell tensions rising in your house, the pair of you were betrothed.

   But when an unforeseen force finds a home in Aemond's heart, breaking both his faith to you and the peace that had finally found your family, what else were you to do? Well, you got even, of course.

   Your hearts were always one, for better or for worse.
   ——
   (or, otherwise known as: the fic that riffs heavily on Jane Austen’s writing style, uses dialogue from House of the Dragon despite diverging from its events and characterization, and has my unexpected investment in accurate High Valyrian to the point of proper conjugation. it was an exercise in studying all three, really.)

   *No use of Y/N, and your only appearance marker is having silver hair (it’s a plot point).
   *Kind of a songfic but the lyrics are just used to differentiate different spread-out scenes.
