Summary
After a devastating breakup with Shane Hollander, Ilya Rozanov expects his off-season to be numb and lonely. Instead, he meets Dr. Alix Hatley, a Russian historian. Misunderstandings, many martinis, and even more feelings follow.
(Note: This fic is not Ilya/Shane endgame. I loved both characters equally in "Heated Rivalry" (book and show) but unfortunately did not like how Shane was portrayed in "The Long Game." On the other hand, Ilya just became more and more endearing throughout each of the books, so I thought I'd write a new love interest. Very excited for "Unrivaled" to come out in 2027 and hopefully will fall back in love with Shane then!)

Summary
[ ᴀᴜ - ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴀɴᴄᴇ ᴏꜰ ᴛʜᴇ ᴅʀᴀɢᴏɴꜱ ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ ʜᴀᴘᴘᴇɴᴇᴅ ]
Naerys Targaryen was the sole child born of the ill-starred union between Prince Daemon Targaryen, called the Rogue Prince, and Lady Rhea Royce of Runestone, a marriage marked more by discord than affection. In her, the blood of Old Valyria mingled with that of the First Men, joining two ancient and proud lineages.
During the later years of King Viserys I’s reign, concerns over succession grew ever more pressing. His heir, Prince Baelon, was of frail health, and the influence of Queen Alicent Hightower and her kin at court gave rise to quiet unease. Fearing that ambition might one day outweigh loyalty, the king took measures to secure his line.
It was thus decreed that his second-born son, Prince Aegon, should wed his cousin Naerys. The match served both to bind the blood of House Targaryen more closely and to remove the young prince from the intrigues of King’s Landing. Aegon was to be sent to the Vale, there to be granted lands and a seat befitting his birth, under the watch of House Royce.
So did Viserys seek to preserve the peace of his Realm: honoring one son, while safeguarding another from the perils of courtly ambition.

Summary
Baelor Targaryen died on the Fields of Ashford Meadow, but he woke in 93AC, as a boy of five in Dorne, a younger brother named Maekar in his arms. He's too young, too powerless, and too Dornish to even begin to grasp how he might alter the history stretched before him. Whether he is in the Heavens or the Hells, he knows he must make the best of the knowledge and skills at his disposal and end the Dance of the Dragons before it can start.
