Word count : 1480
Warnings : Aemond being a sassy little shit, slight mention of blood and violence, choking.
He almost looks otherworldly. His movements are quick, precise and more than anything, elegant. His long silver hair shines like satin as he dodges Ser Criston’s sword once again, the sun caressing his frame in the middle of the training yard. The patch covering his scarred left eye only makes him more mysterious - intimidating, even - and makes the ease with which he supplants one of the best swordsmen on the continent even more baffling. And most importantly, it reminds you of the day he got it, six years ago.
You were only a child then, in fact you all were. When the shocking fight between your brothers, Jace and Luke, and your then much smaller uncle ended in such a tragic way, everything changed for the worst. The bonds that had begun to unravel were broken, and both sides of the family drifted apart. That night, before he left to return to King’s Landing, and despite all the animosity and hatred surrounding you, you silently held his hand. All that mattered to the innocent child you were was that as he closed an eye forever, Aemond, for once, wasn’t alone.
And here he is now, tall and agile, endowed with a grace that is rarely seen in a man. Something in the way he moves makes you shiver, or perhaps it is the result of the disturbing beauty that age has given his elongated features. “Nephews,” he greets, his eye landing on them as his body remains otherwise steady. “Have you come to train ?” He questions, causing your brothers to exchange such worried looks that you notice it even from the other side of the circle.
As people's attention slowly shifts away from the barely finished fight, you feel it coming to focus on Jace and Luke. The whispers had become a habit, the questioning of the blood that runs through the veins of Princess Rhaenyra's children has grown greatly over the years as your brothers have become more and more spitting images of the late Ser Harwin. It must have been gods-given luck that your hair was as white as snow, for you knew that you shared the same father. Thanks to this, some think you really are the daughter of Rhaenyra and Laenor, and so a few think that your brothers might be so too despite their appearances, but most people sense the truth. You wouldn't mind if it only affected you, but you couldn't bear your family being disrespected.
“Actually, I did.” The Targaryen Prince’s back is still facing you as you speak, you’re practically certain he hasn’t noticed you yet. You’re still not really sure if you indeed want to fight him, challenge that boy you used to know, or if you just wanted to silence all of them whispering idiots, but as he slowly turns around to face you, you know there’s no way to escape now.
Suddenly, you’re surrounded by nothing but silence. Your gaze is fixed on his, you find yourself unable to detach from it, almost as if he had cast a spell on you. He studies your face, probably trying to remember the features he once knew, but he does so in such an intense and unabashed way that you can already feel the fire growing in your stomach, and your palms becoming sweaty. After your face and your neck, it is on your body that the blue gaze lingers : the leather dress bequeathed by your mother, worn on the day she killed a boar, seems to be to his liking. Once his precise analysis is complete, the sharpest of smirks crosses Aemond’s face as all you see in his eye is challenge, curiosity, and above all, danger.
“Very well,” he mutters, just loud enough to be heard. “Shall we ?” He asks, spreading his arms as an invitation to join him.
“My Lady you shouldn’t-” Ser Criston warns, or at least tries to, walking your way holding his hand out before being quickly interrupted by your opponent’s silvery voice.
“My dear niece’s desires are orders, Ser Criston.” He smirks, still focused on you, not bothering to look at Cole. “Give her a fucking sword.” He commands, and the brown haired knight complies.
The sword he hands you is long and heavy, but it isn’t the first time you’ve raised one, far from that. Seeing the boys train made you want to master the art of sword fighting too, and it wouldn’t be lying to say you became the best fighter out of your siblings. However, it seems it will take more than skill to compete with your opponent : you have to take him by surprise. So, as your hands wrap around the handle, you let the sword’s weight bring it down, pretending it is too heavy for you to raise. As expected, this is greeted by chuckles from the attentive crowd, and a raised eyebrow from the silver haired Prince.
“For some reason, I assumed you’d be strong enough to wield this sword.” He provokes, a proud grin on his face. Taking advantage of this fraction of a second where he is distracted by his own provocation, and also of the rage that it awakens in you despite yourself, you raise your sword and charge straight at him, in a movement as sure as it is precise. You feel his surprise when your swords clash, your gazes meet again, and that stupid smile of his only widens. He's proud of himself, he knows his words got to you, and that is enough to drive you mad in this instant. You growl as you lift your sword once more, hitting him again and again while he dodges, forming an intricate choreography to the rhythm of your anger. The more he manages to avoid your attacks, the more you come at him, feeling the heat grow more and more on your cheeks.
“One could think you seem offended,” he states after stepping aside for an instant. “Do be careful,” he continues, bending down as your weapon brushes over his head. “Driven by such vigor, you could get hurt.”
You scoff, taking a step back to catch your breath, now both of you walking in a circle, playfully yet seriously studying each other. Both can play this little game, and you know exactly what to say to awake the sleeping dragon in him.
“Don’t worry, my Prince, there’s more to me than meets the eye.” You grin, brushing some dirt off your chin with your sleeve. “You’d see it if only you bothered to pig-, I mean, to dig a little deeper.” You wink and his look darkens, his jaw clenched and his knuckles turning white around the handle of his sword. “Oops”, you mimic, now facing a both enraged and somehow amused Aemond. Yet you thank the Gods he only has an eye, for two of those knives throwing blue irises would have killed you in an instant.
You don’t have more time to think before he’s charging towards you, a swift movement of his sword disarming you before you can even react. His strength sends you flying a few feet behind and when you get back up again, he throws his own weapon and walks fast towards you, then firmly grabs your neck with his bare hand, pressing his chest against yours. Your hands come to cover his but his grip is strong, as he warns Criston and your brothers not to intervene with a single raise of his free hand, without having to say a word.
Aemond’s heart beats loud against yours, his gaze rapidly switching from one of your eyes to the other, his nostrils flared by his furious breathing. His body is so close to yours you can smell his sweat and his musky scent, your eyes locked on his, refusing to surrender or beg for him to release you. That cocky bastard would love that way too much. Instead, you put more pressure on his hand, making him choke you harder. His jaw clenches once more at this, as he releases a carnal growl. Aemond’s lips turn into a pleased smirk, and he finally releases some pressure, allowing you to breathe again.
“I did not expect much, but I’ll admit I feel some kind of…” he whispers as he pauses for a second, only to rub the delicate trace of blood from the corner of your mouth with his thumb, before bringing it to his lips, allowing the divine taste of the scarlet liquid to slip on his tongue, "... amusement."
You can’t control the shivers that run down your spine, nor can you help but to bite your lip to prevent a pleased moan from escaping your mouth. “I can feel that amusement growing in your pants,” you whisper back, and you could have sworn that as you broke free of his grip, you saw fire burning in his eye.
