(Drakken's POV)
"Why am I a bit nervous?" Sylas said as we walked down the hallways, "Is it happening?"
"Calm down." I said as I tossed a piece of dried meat in my mouth, "I don't want you to pee yourself with excitement."
"What?" He asked me, "How is that possible? Who has done that?"
"Believe it or not, like dogs, people have peed themselves with excitement." I said with a slight smirk, "Or fear. I don't know."
"If you're involved, it's definitely fear." Sylas told me with a frown, "Who would be so excited to see you that they piss themselves? Maybe Astorias."
"Show some respect to your sister." I scowled
"Sorry, sorry." He said
We made a corner and the moment we did so, I saw a familiar face.
"Lord Drakken!" Alyssa exclaimed as she was holding a small toddler in her arms, "You're here, I didn't think we would have you."
Sylas and I stopped a couple of feet away from her, "Hello, Alyssa."
"Princess." Sylas nodded
Alyssa was wearing a red dress, as usual, and she was holding a little girl who seemed to be Viktoria's age. She had white hair and purple eyes as she looked right at me with a frown.
"Seems Baelon's girl is doing well." I said as I smirked slightly, "Is he still angry that he has me to thank for having a daughter?"
Alyssa smiled nervously, "H-He is....." She said, "Lord Sylas, have you met Aelora?"
"No, Princess." Sylas said, "I do not believe I have."
Alyssa patted her cheek, "She's precious, this one." She said, "When I found out I was with child, Saera was already a few months in her own pregnancy. It was a wonderful feeling, to finally bear a child after so long."
"I am sure it was." Sylas said
Alyssa smiled, "So polite." She said, "Are you sure you're Drakken's son. Haha, I merely jest, My Lord."
"Hm." I said as I took a bite of another piece of dried meat, "Where's your sister?"
"Uhm, who? Daella?" She asked
"Why would I want to look for her?" I asked as I chewed, "I'm talking about Daenerys."
"Oh, Dany is with Father." Alyssa said, "I heard he decided to take her on a flight. My boys are with Baelon too, flying on Balerion. To claim more dragons in the future, they must be used to flying. That's what Father said."
"How many dragons do House Targaryen have?" Sylas asked me
I shrugged, "Don't know." I said, "I think some of the eggs I created landed in Dragonstone and outside the dragonpit. They must have more."
"We do." Alyssa walked over to us, "Rhaenys has been eyeing this young red one that looks like Meleys, except it has blue scales on some spots. It's quite a nice dragon. My boy, Daemon, says he wants Caraxes but he is going to claim a different one I am sure. Viserys hasn't shown interest in any dragons, I am afraid."
"Oh." Sylas said, "And Daenerys?"
"I don't know." Alyssa said, "She said she wanted a gold one...like your wyvern....."
Sylas's eyes lit up, "S-She can ride on Leonydas, if she wants!"
I rolled my eyes, "Nice one, Alyssa." I said, "Now you have him riled up, this love-struck fool."
"He was a ward for three years, Lord Drakken, he deserves something." Alyssa chuckled, "Anyways, if you excuse Aelora and I.....we are going to see Mother for tea. "
She then walked off as Sylas and I stood there, watching her leave.
"Is it me or is Princess Alyssa a bit more beautiful?" Sylas asked, "It's like she's glowing."
"Hm." I said, "Maybe you're right. And what? You can't be satisfied with one princess, gotta go for another one?"
"You have three." He frowned at me
"Two." I corrected
"Father, I am no fool." Sylas said, "You and Viserra are more than God and Dragon Maiden."
"Yea yea." I said as I walked forward, "Shut up."
"Let's go and get this over with."
*******************
"Drakken." Aemon said with a serious look on his face, "What brings you here?"
I had walked into the Small Council Room, in which he was there, standing at the edge of it. I found it odd that he was there alone, but it seemed he was waiting for someone or something.
I was taking a bite of dried meat, "Daenerys Targaryen."
He narrowed his eyes, "Why?"
"Don't worry about it." I told him as I looked around, "Where's your wife?"
"That is no concern of yours." He said seriously, "Drakken..."
Sylas cleared his throat, "Prince Aemon." He said, "I am here to ask for Princess Daenerys's hand in marriage."
"Her hand?" Aemon said, "Are you serious?"
Sylas nodded, "I am." He said, "Your sister, The Princess Daenerys...I have been in love with her for many years."
"This one is a romantic." I said while chewing, "Kinda like me but he's not as lustful."
"I'm 12." Sylas frowned
Aemon sighed, "My sister's hand in marriage." He said, "That is not up to me to decide. But if Father agrees with it, which I would be against, I cannot do anything about it."
"I know." I said with a slight smirk, "You see, you can't do much to oppose it. You owe me big time, remember?"
He scowled, "You...."
"What did you do?" Sylas asked me
"Oh, nothing major." I said, "Just undid his infertility and now he and Daella have a beautiful daughter together. Poor girl, she must have been disappointed in herself for not giving you a son. What was the girl's name? Aella? I mean, she's like what? 10 months? Congratulations, Prince Aemon. You see, as someone who also has plenty of girls-"
"Enough." Aemon cut me off, "My Father will return shortly with my sister. I don't have to stand here and watch you chew meat in front of me. What even is that?"
"Oh this?" I lifted a large piece of dried meat that was in my hand, "Dried Dragon Meat. Quite tasty."
"What?!" Aemon exclaimed, "That is dragon flesh?!"
"Oh yes." I said as I bit a chunk of the piece, "Want some?"
"Of course not!!" He said with an enraged look on his face, "What kind of madman does that?!"
"Me, obviously." I said, "I mean, it's also Balerion's flesh too. Quite the power move, eh?"
"That's what?!" His eyes twitched
"Yea." I said, "Last time I was here, about a year ago.....I snuck into the pit, cut off a huge piece of his flesh and repaired him...obviously. I then took the flesh.....marinated it in my special sauces, trust me...it is good. I then salted it and dry-aged it.....a few months later, boom....special Black Dread Jerky. I mean...it would be a good thing to sell, don't you think?"
"You are insane!" He said, "How could one eat Dragon Flesh?!"
"I mean, I don't know if your digestive systems will endure such a thing." I said, "I'm different. Meat is meat, after all."
"Anyways, it is quite delicious."
