Summary
Alicent arrives at court at the age of six and ten, with only one thought in mind: she will be queen of the Seven Kingdoms.
It won’t be an easy task, her father tells her. King Viserys, only a decade older than Alicent herself, remains wholly reluctant to remarry. He already has an heir, he insists, and has no need to find a new wife. Princess Rhaenyra, a girl of seven, is her father’s darling only child, and heir to his throne.
Alicent is certain she'll convince him otherwise. But then again, things rarely go the way one plans.

“There is nothing 'supposed' about my children.” she went on, each word gaining weight, “They are the future of this house. Written in law. Written in dragonfire. You may hate that. You may taste bile every time you say their titles. You may kneel at your bedside and whisper other names into your pillow. I do not care.”
“Rhaenyra,” Viserys breathed, worn and pleading.
A muscle jumped in Alicent’s cheek. “You think I wanted—”
“I think you wanted exactly what you have,” Rhaenyra cut in. “Rooms in my father’s Keep. A seat at his side. A crown that never sits right on your hair because you know you came to it on your knees.”
