House of The Dragon-A God Amongst Men-Chapter 519: Commitment

(Drakken’s POV)

[Harrenhal, Some Days Later]

"I wouldn’t mind another one, I really wouldn’t." Maegelle told me, "I just....I want to know that none of them would be neglected."

I rolled my eyes, "Again with this?" I asked, "They won’t."

"Well...." She said as she was sitting down next to me, "I really worry, that is all."

I looked at her, "Why would I neglect a child that I chose to have?" I asked her, "Am I that cruel?"

"Do you want me to answer that?" She asked with a raised eyebrow

"Tch...." I said as I looked away, "Nymeria is one thing, alright? The others? Never. Besides, I care for her, I really do. I want nothing more than for my daughter to be by my side. But alas, things cannot happen as we want them to. Such are the plans."

"That doesn’t bide well with me." She said

"Do we want to have a kid or not?" I pulled her closer, "I can put one in you right now. You are my beautiful wife, Maegelle. Let me show you how serious I am."

"Not now." She said while rolling her eyes, "But if it’s what you want, sure."

"Good." I leaned in and kissed her cheek, "Are you still worried for that little shit?"

"Of course I am." She said, "Riktor hasn’t written in a long time...."

"He’s fine." I told her, "Reports say that he will make his move soon. He will be alright."

There was a knock on the door as I said this and Maegelle pulled away, composing herself.

She cleared her throat, "Come in."

The door opened and Viserra walked in, wearing a nice white dress while her hair was tied in a braid.

"S-Sister, I apologize for any bother." She said as she walked up to us

"No, Viserra, it is all well." Maegelle said, "Did you need something?"

Viserra looked down, "I wanted to speak to the both of you." She said, "It is about what Lord Drakken has planned for me."

I tilted my head and crossed my arms, "Is that so?"

"Y-Yes...." Viserra said softly, "About myself marrying you...."

"Oh." Maegelle said, "Did you think about it? Drakken seems rather adamant about it."

"I....I accept." Viserra said as she blushed slightly, "If that is what My Lord wishes for, so be it."

I stood up and walked over to her, standing behind her and wrapping my arms around her waist, "My Viserra." I kissed her cheek, "I knew you would accept. Should we celebrate this decision? Do you wish to lay in my bed tonight?"

"Drakken...." Maegelle frowned

Viserra shook her head, "I-I....I will remain a Maiden until we are married." She said softly, "Is that acceptable?"

"Hm...." I ran my hand through her hair, "Very well. And when we marry?"

"I am yours to do with as you see fit." She said

"Don’t say it like I will mistreat you." I embraced her, "I will treat you well, my Viserra. You have my word. I have nothing but commitment to you and your sisters."

"I-If you.....wish to put a child in me....." She continued, "That is something I wish to think about still. I do not know if.....well....if I am ready for that."

"Worry not." I told her, "I won’t force anything on you. But..."

I pulled away and walked towards Maegelle, pulling her up gently as I kissed her hand.

"W-What?" She said

"I will have Viserra watch us make our next child." I told her

Maegelle’s face turned red, "W-What???" She said, "Drakken, that is-"

"She needs to understand that this is the commitment to us." I wrapped my arms around her waist, "What’s the problem? You’ve watched me fuck Saera multiple times."

"That is different!" She exclaimed, "That is-"

I leaned in and kissed her on the lips, running my hands down to her rear and squeezing it. She kissed me back as she embraced me in response, our bodies sharing their warmth.

I then pulled away and smiled, "What is it?"

"You...." She said softly, "You are a vulgar man sometimes....."

I kissed her cheek, "Yet you love it all the same." I said, "With time, our Family will be complete. And in the Future, they will be everything this world will fear."

She nodded slowly, "As long..." She started, "As long as they are healthy and happy, I don’t mind."

I patted her cheek, "Of course."

I looked at Viserra, who was looking down awkwardly. She was fidgeting with her fingers, a bit nervous about the whole situation.

"She is nervous." Maegelle told me, "I won’t blame her for that."

"Hm." I said, "Viserra."

She looked at me, "Y-Yes?"

"Nothing much will change." I told her, "Be yourself still, my dear. You will be a Wife of Drakken soon, not just a Dragon Maiden."

"I...I know.." She said

I gestured her over, "Come."

She walked up to me and I grabbed her hand, "I didn’t think it would come to this." She said, "I..."

I patted her cheek while I still held Maegelle with one arm, "Don’t worry about a thing." I said, "Everything will be fine. The Trinity has accepted this and they won’t mind if you give me a child. But.....like you said, you need time to think about it. For now, let us simply live our lives as usual."

She nodded, "Very well." She said, "I understand."

"I need to check on the boys." Maegelle said as she pulled away, "I’ll leave the two of you to it. Maekar and Maelor are growing restless by the day."

"I....I will go too." Viserra pulled away, "I wish to spend time with them as well."

"Oh, you’re welcomed to do so, sister." Maegelle smiled, "Come."

I watched as the two of them walked away, leaving me alone in the room. I was left here with a feeling of wanting to have sex, my body yearning for my women’s warmth.

"Hm...." I said as I cracked my knuckles, "I wonder if Saera is down for some sex."

"Who am I kidding, of course she is."
