Summary
Daemon had thought he knew his sister better than anyone.
The princess had her hands tucked behind the small of her back, having what appeared to be a staring match with the weeping face of the heart tree. Compared to its cousin which resided in the Red Keep, Daemon always thought the expression on Harrenhal’s heart tree more twisted, as if in sharper agony. Perhaps with the ghosts of House Hoare, still burning from the Black Dread’s flames.
On any other day, he would not have hesitated to immediately approach her, perhaps even sneak up from behind and wrap his arms around her in an embrace. But she had been behaving oddly these past few days, avoiding him even.
His steps were hesitant as he approached her, allowing the lifeless grass and leaves to crunch noisily beneath his boots until Rhaenyra finally turned to acknowledge him, purple eyes unreadable in the gloom that always seemed to hang over the molten fortress.
“Daemon,” she greeted.
“Wife.”

Summary
“Because if I intended to simply take leave, as you say, it would be expected that the Hand and Small Council would govern in my stead, in my name.”
Daemon nodded, taking a sip from his cup.
Viserys caught his gaze and held it. “Instead, I want you to govern, as if you were king.”
Daemon choked, spluttering and wasting the fine Arbor Gold all over the floor. “What?!”
“You say you wish to be my Hand, and later succeed me on the Iron Throne. Let us test that shall we? Discover whether you truly wish to rule the Seven Kingdoms.”
In the wake of his grief, Daemon’s words and pleas at the foot of the Iron Throne manage to touch Viserys’s heart. He had lost sight, in his quest for a son, of the family he already had. He had forgotten that House Targaryen could only be felled when it teared itself apart from the inside out.
No more.
So, rather than exile, Viserys decides to take a gamble.

Aegon shrugged. “King’s Landing has been such a bore since Jace and Luke left, and now that Aemond has Vhagar he’s been more insufferable than ever. And Sunfyre has been restless. Don’t dragons thrive better on Dragonstone? I thought there would be more fun to be had here.”

Or, Aegon may be an idiot, but he isn't...completely...hopeless.

Summary
His frown deepened and Alina thought she saw something she had never seen before on him bloom in his eyes – fear. “Milaya - Alina, what is the last thing you remember?”
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. “Crossing the Fjerdan border and making camp.”
“Why were you crossing the Fjerdan border, Alina?” Aleksander asked, and even Alina could not deny the dread she could hear creep into his voice.
“To –” she paused. “To find the stag. Morozova’s stag.”
She caught a flicker of grief in Aleksander’s face before it froze over. “Alina…that was…that was fifty years ago.”

Summary
What happens when a struggling intern, barely scraping by in Paris, comes home to find a leather-clad thief in her apartment?
Marinette Dupain-Cheng is exhausted—juggling an unpaid internship at Agreste Industries and a night job just to keep a roof over her head. But when a mysterious, smug thief known as Chat Noir breaks into her apartment, she expects the worst… until he takes one look at her empty, crumbling home and declares it un-robbable.
What follows is an unexpected, infuriating, and utterly confusing game of cat and mouse—where the thief isn’t taking from her but leaving things behind. Expensive things. Food, furniture, stolen luxuries that Marinette knows she should refuse. But as her life becomes entangled with both Chat Noir and the elusive Adrien Agreste, Marinette starts to wonder: who exactly is helping who?

Summary
Marinette never thought she’d face pregnancy on her own.
She’s shocked and unprepared, but there’s no doubt in her heart—she’s always wanted to be a mother. The first person she confides in is Chat Noir, her best friend of ten years. As the months pass, his support is unwavering. He's as devoted as ever and eager to meet the baby they’ve lovingly nicknamed Minibug. And when the baby arrives, he’s still the best partner Ladybug could ever ask for.
Somewhere between juggling single motherhood, protecting Paris, and late-night patrols, Marinette is struck by a realization:
She’s fallen for him. Again.
What she doesn’t realize is that he’s always been hers—still holding onto hope that one day, Ladybug will love him back.
But, more than anything, Chat Noir wants to be a father. And to Minibug, he already is.
