    Summary

    "What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.

    "What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.

    "I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."

    "Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"

    "Yes," Grace says hoarsely.

    "Anything for him."

    ***

    Adrian does not like Grace.

    Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

    Summary

    Maeve was born into House Blackwood. The only daughter among four sons. She was the favorite cousin of Brynden Rivers. Her favor secured her a rather advantageous marriage to Lyonel Baratheon, situating her to eventually become the Lady of Storm's End. She was smart, favored by one of the most powerful men in the realm and if she had been born a man - she would have been a force to be reckoned with. She was, however, not born a man and now plays a very different game.

    This is her story.

    Summary

    Baelor had swore to you that he would come back from the Ashford Tourney swiftly. Whole and safe. You’d believed him, not knowing the only foil in his plans to return home to you, was that he wouldn’t return as you knew him. You’d barely been widowed six months, and yet you listened to your father-in-law, the king, arrange with your brother, the proceeding in which you would wed your late husband’s brother, Maekar. Could the gods be more cruel?

    Summary

    In 196 AC, Lord Elmure Tully fielded a blow in the Redgrass Field that would have cost Prince Baelor Targaryen his leg, if not his life. Ten years later, the Targaryen dynasty rewards this loyalty by proposing a match between Elmure's eldest daughter, Maeve, and the widowed Prince Maekar.

    But Maeve, whose blood has always run hot, finds the constraints of her new life in the Red Keep stifling, her stepchildren odd and antisocial, and her new husband strangely hesitant to frequent her bed. How lucky, then, that gallant Prince Baelor seems so fond of her...

    It's only an innocent friendship. What could go wrong?
