    Summary

    After Princes Daeron and Aegon go missing, no one expects for the same fate to happen to Aerion Targaryen.

    Dunk, while walking through the alleys of Flea Bottom, stumbles upon something he cannot unsee: a cloaked man, barely conscious, being dragged into a brothel.

    Aerion, stripped of his name, his face, and everything that marks him as Targaryen, is reduced to something unrecognizable. He clings to pride and anger as long as he can, until even that is taken from him, and he finally breaks.

    But despite what Aerion becomes, Dunk doesn’t give up. He doesn’t hurt him, force him, or look at him with anything other than patience and gentleness. Aerion waits for him to snap, but he never does.

    Slowly, Aerion stops fighting. He lets Dunk help. Lets him stay. Lets him touch him. And in that surrender, he begins to feel things that he’s never felt before.

    Or: After a single mistake, Aerion falls into the hands of those who force him into a life he’d rather die than endure. When he is finally reunited with his family, he is no longer the man he was, yet the one thing he clings to is a stubborn hedge knight who refused to leave him.

    Summary

    Aerion “Brightflame” Targaryen is a man sure of himself. He is never unmoored, never questioning.

    Unfortunately, the hedge knight who bested him being thrust into his daily life threatens these certainties.

    He hates it, he hates him, but he’s learning quickly that he holds far less control than he once believed.

     

    After an attack leaves Aerion indefinitely unable to speak, it seems the only one capable of understanding him is the very person he wishes to be known by the least.

    Summary

    Aerion looked up at the roof above him before letting his eyes close gently. Suddenly, he was back in the Ashford mud, looking up at the hedge knight. He only had one blue eye open, but it contained enough anger and resentment for Aerion, enough to haunt Aerion for the lingering months since then.

    Yield,” the hedge knight had demanded.

    Aerion Brightflame had been struck with fear, violet eyes stained with tears. He opened his mouth, letting the regretful words fall out.

    I yield.

    Aerion’s eyes remained closed, his breathing sharp. His mouth hung open, and one word slipped out, a name that Aerion had sworn to forget before it would burn him alive.

    Duncan.”


    Months have passed since Aerion Targaryen had returned back to King's Landing, but the events of Ashford had not left him. Desperate to prove himself, or looking for some escape, he drinks wildfire. But he did not turn into a dragon. Instead, it only burned him. Left in all the mess he has made, there is only one name he will speak, only one man he wishes to see, one knight he knows will have it in him to bring him death.

    Summary

    When he’s nine, Aerion sneaks out of the Red Keep and meets a hungry boy from Flea Bottom who mocks his fancy accent and treats him like a person instead of a prince. For a brief, impossible season, they become friends. Aerion is sweet and curious and he promises he’ll remember.

    Years later, Dunk finds work on the road and a way into tourneys, while Aerion has grown into the court’s shining threat, cruel, untouchable, and practiced at turning people into lessons. When they meet again, Aerion recognizes Dunk immediately, and acts like he’s found something that belongs to him.
