Summer Isles - The Cove
Eragon Targaryen

The dragons crawl into their dug-out 'hole' in the stone wall and pass out after eating more than their body weight in fish. Where the food goes I have no idea, they use to swell up and lounge around with fat bellies as babies but now they don't show their meal at all. Maybe it all just burns away inside of their bodies?
I shake my head and grab a pair of clean clothes, we are going to bathe after eating, and then it will be dark in an hour or two so we will head to bed. Sleep comes early on the island with nothing much to do other than fight and fuck. We also question each other in mind games to solve different problems and stuff to 'sharpen our wit' and Shiera and Visenya love that time of the day.
The two of them can go on for hours as the rest of us sit in the background cuddling and kissing. Ellaria and her children who stayed on the island also join in our games occasionally, and it's pretty fun.
But right now we are ready to take the annoying walk to the 'washing pond' and then I will relax the rest of the night.
Before playing around with the dragons and Rhaenys I went for a run down the beach with Shiera to get her some sweating in and had to carry my soft girl back. She was panting like a dying dog and gasping for water by the time I got her back 'home'. Daenerys requested to go for a 'run' that would leave her so breathless and I agreed to help her out with that tomorrow.
Little does she know it is actually a run...
Morgana is also being a bit more friendly toward me after I have talked with her multiple times since we got on this island. She took the news of her mom being 'pregnant' pretty well, but that's still up in the air.
Ashara wakes up feeling horrible and can't keep some foods down in the mornings, she thinks it could be the early signs. From all the knowledge we all have we pretty much as a group agree with her.
Melisandre shows no signs and doesn't get sick but she told me with a sense of finality that she is pregnant. Daenerys groaned the whole day about how she is 'trying the hardest' yet she is not getting pregnant and even lost to someone she pulled into my bed. With her being the youngest though I think it's fine, she has time and we are still trying so there is no rush.

"Can I cut it?" Rhaenys asks as Shiera pulls a section of my hair and brings her sharpened cutters to it.
"No." Shiera ruthlessly stomps Rhaenys hopes and I chuckle seeing her look 'depressed'.
Shiera always cuts my hair, ever since she did it the first time when I got honey stuck in it and it wouldn't come out and she helped me. Since then she has always kept up with my hair and cut it for me, it grows like a weed though and she is kept busy trimming it.
"You should shave him as well, there is a blade back in the cave you could use." I put my hand protectively over my 'fuzz' and glare at Ellaria who is squinting while looking at my chin. "It grows faster once you cut it a few times, if you want to grow a full face of hair it will only help to cut it once or twice." My eyes widen hearing her and Daenerys on my side joins Ellaria in squinting at my chin.
"I think it would be better to remain smooth, you don't have the face for a beard Eragon." I gasp hearing my very own twin crushing my hopes just like Shiera crushed Rhaenys. "I won't lie to you, I like you without a beard." She approaches me in the water and the little waves hit my body tingling my skin.
"I think you should try to grow it at least once, see what it looks like with my own eyes before I judge." Rhaenyra comments while scrubbing her skin with some of Shieras skin treatment.
"Alright, just let me see what it looks like one good time then we will vote on it, until then I will shave it three times and then let it grow out." Daenerys rolls her eyes and leans her head on my chest pressing her lips on my skin.
"Who are you going to let shave you?" I think about who I will let run a sharp blade on my throat and I feel a shiver up my spine and shake my head earning me a slap on the back from Shiera.
"Sit still." She groans and I sit back into her a little bit for better access.
"I could do it, you wouldn't want to have your throat opened by a beginner." Ellaria offers and I slowly nod, if she wanted me dead she could order the hundreds of people at her disposal to spear me to death.
----
"Smooth as a baby's bottom." Ellaria's finger runs around my chin and down to my chest before I look back at her oddly and she shrugs before standing up. "Alright girls, let's head to bed." She claps her hands and her kids stand up and follows her as they head to the other side of the cave.
A bit of space was put between those I fuck and those I don't, mainly in an attempt for a quiet rest a night for those I don't. Since Rhaenys broke the unspoken rule and went loud and proud the others have been uncaring if others hear us. We are far enough back in the cave that no one outside can hear but those on the raised stone platform can hear us.
I walk over to the dragons dug out and peek inside to see them sleeping with some space between them and I feel the urge to climb inside and disturb them. I don't know why but it's something about being a 'dad' that drives me to pester them when I get the chance.
I shake my head as normal fire seems to not bother me but dragon fire still stings when it hits the skin. The whole champion of R'hllor seems to be working out in all kinds of ways that I never would have guessed.
----
"That's my win." I move my dragon piece in Cyvasse and take the win against Visenya who snorts.
"After four attempts you finally beat me, had to get me piss drunk as well." She knocks over her empty cup to prove her point and I have to hold back from laughing.
Looking around the only one still up is Melisandre and she is stocking the fires for the night, ever the diligent in keeping our flames going. When I wake up I can find her stocking the fires and heating some food every morning. Nothing I can do about her habits, she has been doing this for longer than I have been alive.
Plus I enjoy waking up to a warm chair and warm food with her even warmer body sitting in my lap as I let the last of my drowsiness leave me.
Visenya looks at my 'house' and I know she is thinking about how she told the others to leave us alone tonight. They are pretty much piled up in Rhaenys bed right now and left pretty early to let the mood 'set' between us. Visenya is very...practical in the way she does things and she is approaching this in a way that rubs me a bit 'wrong'.
Similar to how I wanted to slow things down with Rhaenys to make sure it wasn't just a sex thing or not. I don't want to feel more for someone than they will feel for me, it's a good way to get myself hurt so I don't want to jump in too deep.
Visenya is definitely a young woman and gets horny and we have 'played' around a few times since the time I had her with her sister and Daenerys. But the way she talks about things seems like she is reading them off a page.
I have this or I have that and I am a good match because of 'this' and it seems like she doesn't even really consider her own feelings on the matter. I think most of it is also just a shield to prevent herself from being hurt.
She seems guarded and I respect that, she doesn't want to get hurt.
But I don't plan to hurt her and I need to show her that she can let her shield down a bit more. She may not even be holding it up intentionally, she is the one who started initiating tonight and not me. So I need to do my part and not let her doubt herself and make sure she enjoys the process. And to do that I need to take it from here and guide her, I may not be the most experienced in the world but I am getting there.
We will carry through with what she and I both want and then we will go from there.

"Both of the pregnant girls of House Targaryen." Elia toasts the both of me and Shaena as we eat our meal together in a sort of 'girls' night'.
"I still feel it's too early to talk about it, anything can happen before it becomes more of a certainty." Shaena replies and I honestly can't help but nod, it may be my first time carrying but I know for a fact how easy it is to lose the baby before time.
Every time I get dizzy and feel faint I think something is wrong and have the Maester check me over, he never says anything new. I also started seeing an old nurse who has been through many pregnancies and helped many give birth, she makes me feel better when she talks.
"It is early, but it's not the worst thing to get a little excited." My good mother Rhaella speaks up as she smiles at her daughter.
Gods, I wish my mother was around.
"I guess so, but let's still change the topic how has your day been?" Shaena turns the topic to her mom's day and Rhaella simply rolls her eyes and goes back to cutting her meat.
"It was fine, I didn't do much except for read and send out a few letters. The Velaryons are coming to visit which felt like I had stubbed my toe when I saw the words on the letter." Everyone at the table grimaces when the awkward topic of Eragons 'engaged' comes up.
I think the only one here who he hasn't fucked is the very woman who just spoke so it's a bit awkward. Shit, two of us are carrying his baby and she is going to come by and look for him?
This is a disaster waiting to happen, the Velaryon's support is big for us as well. It's not the biggest alliance by any means for us that is available but it's the biggest that has been tried to secure.
Then Eragon started fucking around and wanting to marry half the women in Sunspear and that ship went right down the river.
"Yea, it won't turn out well... unless we tell them about the dragons. With that knowledge, they may just choose to still marry her to him in the hopes of the Velaryons getting their hands on dragons once more." Elia idly comments as she leans into her chair.
"That's what I thought, at worst they tell our opponents 'they have dragons' but they already know and it is not like they can see them. In the best scenario, we secure the alliance and get their ships and support." Rhaella brings her cup to her lips as she nods.
Seems she already thought it all out, I wonder what their response will be?
