Summary
“I was given to understand by Father Hightower, that my Sisters and I would be met by a Mr. Targaryen,” she says calmly, the thin air making it difficult for her to concentrate, a cracked dryness eager to spread from her lips to her throat.
“That’s me,” the woman says, a tired smirk pulling at her mouth. “It’s what people here call me. And it’s easier to gain respect from outsiders if they think I’m a man.”
Alicent shifts uncomfortably, her tailbone sore from a days worth of riding on treacherous mountain paths. Under her habit, she can feel the goose flesh on her skin, her cold nipples chafing against the rough material of her undershift. She’s desperately tired, the Sisters’ eyes burning hot on the back of her wimple, begging to get to their accommodations. Before her, this Mr. Targaryen contemplates her curiously, head cocked, blue eyes penetrating.

Summary
After Rhaenyra’s career as a renowned athlete reached its natural end, she never expected her marriage with Alicent to do the same. Yet, her mate no longer bears the title of her wife, and Jace and Aemond’s time is now split between their two lives. A year later, love has not withered and the mating bond is still very much frustratingly intact, the temptation to fall back in each other’s arms only growing with each day spent apart.
Good news in the family, however, comes with Laena's incoming wedding - all grandiose with a one-week-long celebration in a luxurious hotel by the beach their friends are all expected to join and that will, inevitably, force Alicent and Rhaenyra to share the same space for seven whole days. Seven days that soon turn into a game of possession and revived passion neither wishes to lose.
or, Alicent and Rhaenyra are divorced (soul)mates who swear they can and will resist each other - and who, ultimately, fail at that simple task within the span of a week.

Summary
She doesn’t know what exactly it is about Mikasa. Someone as passionless as her, with such empty eyes, who doesn’t even have enough pride in her skills that she’d hide it at someone else’s say so, surely someone like that doesn’t deserve her interest? Eren may be formless and lacks discipline, but in his eyes burns an uncontrollable passion. Like he’s bigger than his own body. That’s what’s attractive about him. Compared to him, Mikasa just pisses her off. She can’t place a finger on why. Mikasa just does.
