House of The Dragon-A God Amongst Men-Chapter 100: The Prince and The Monster

(Drakken's POV)

I looked at Aemon, "It appears to me that your boy is doing well, Aemon." I said with a smirk, "How amusing...."

He gave me a scowl, "D-Drakken...."

I took a step forward and chuckled, "I take it you still haven't thought of that reward?" He said, "Time is running out, Aemon....you have what? A little over a year?"

"I...." Aemon said

"Don't sweat it." I said as I took another step, "I am not going to harm him. Not now at least....but you and I need to have a little chat."

"Pardon me." I heard the one whose name I could not remember say, "May I ask what you are doing here?"

I raised an eyebrow, "What?"

He was standing next to Maegelle's sister, whose eyes were widened and looking at me. There was some sort of glimmer in them, like she was interested in whatever I was. I got that feeling when I first met her, the glint of curiosity was in her eyes. I could not ignore such a pretty little flower who is curious.

"I asked you what you are doing he-" He started before I cut him off by pulling him towards me with my telekinesis

"Shut up." I said as I caught him by the throat, "You dare speak at me with such pretentious tone? You? A mere Lord? We may share similar titles but we are in no way the same. Know your place, you worm."

I clutched his throat as he grasped my arm, "W-What?!" He exclaimed with his eyes widened

I had heard Daella gasp, "O-Oh!" She said

"That is enough, Drakken!" Aemon called over, "Let him go."

I looked at Aemon, "Oh?" I said, "You are telling me what to do?"

"You promised years of peace." He said, "Do you really think this will help that? Not only that, I can only imagine that my sister would not be happy with you murdering a Lord on the days that she had returned home."

I let go of the Lord, he fell to the ground and began to cough.

"Aghh...." He groaned in pain

I smirked at Aemon, "You Targaryens sure know how to grind my gears." I said as I pushed the stupid boy with my foot, "Do you really think you are equal to me?"

Aemon narrowed his eyes, "It matters not who we think we are equal to." He said, "I am still a Prince and the Heir to the Iron Throne."

"A stupid chair that means nothing to me." I said as I faced him, "Do you seriously think that House Drakkengard will be subservient to House Targaryen? The wealthiest House in the Realm with the most powerful army. And do not forget.....weapons that can surpass your dragons.....no matter how you look at it.....the only reason you still stand is because I allow it....."

"Prince Aemon....." I heard the lord say, "W-What is this man?"

"Lord Corlys, stand back." Aemon said, "I suggest you leave. Daella, get behind me, sister. You never know what Drakken is going to do."

"Leave?" Corlys said, "After the humiliation I just en-"

"Shut up." I said as I smacked him in the face without looking, "You imbecile."

He had straightened up only to get thrown back to the ground by my slap.

"Drakken...." Aemon frowned, "That is enough."

"Yea, maybe." I said with a chuckle, "You and I need to talk."

I saw as Daella walked over to Aemon and grabbed the small boy's hand, standing behind the Prince as the little boy looked at me with terrified eyes.

"What is it you want?" Aemon asked me

"Wait." I said as I snapped my fingers and suddenly, Corlys disappeared

"W-Wha..." Daella gasped, "Where did he go????"

"What did you do to him?" Aemon said, "Drakken, enough of this!"

"Relax." I said, "I sent him across the Keep. I cannot send anyone that far...."

"That better be true." Aemon said

"It is." I said, "Now.....let's chat."

"What is it?" Aemon said

I began to pace back and forth, in front of them, "As you may have heard...." I said, "I am now a Father....like you, I have a son."

"So I was told...." Aemon said, "What do you require of me? To congratulate you?"

"I really don't give a shit if you do." I told him, "But let me talk, you pleb."

"Fine, continue." He said with a frown

"My son will soon grow up to be a fierce and powerful warrior, one that will almost reach my level." I said as I placed my hands behind me, "He is my Heir...he will be the Head of House Drakkengard."

"Aren't you the Head?" Aemon asked, "And you cannot die, how would that work?"

"I need someone to handle things the right way whenever I do not wish to." I said, "And let me make this clear; I am here to stay. There is no way back to where I came from. I am stuck in this wretched world so I better make the best of it. I can live for centuries, even in a world deprived of magic like this.....and so would my children....and anyone who I deem worthy...."

"W-What?" I heard Daella say, "What are you?"

I smiled slightly and stopped, looking at her, "I am but the God of War and Death." I said, "My son will be the Head of House Drakkengard in the future and he would need his own bride."

Aemon narrowed his eyes, "What are you trying to say?" He asked, "Drakken....."

"You offered me your daughters in your time of desperation." I said with a chuckle, "And right now, I am willing to consider the offer. But obviously...not for myself.....but for my son."

"Y-You are offering a marriage?" Aemon asked, "An alliance between our Houses?"

"No." I said, "Fuck your House. I only want the blood in your girls. Mixing them with mine will be an amazing thing...only to piss your Father off...to piss on his ideals is something that makes me happy."

"You want to marry your son to one of my daughters.....to produce grandchildren that would anger my Father?" Aemon blinked, "I do not see how that would benefit you.....or your House....."

"Well, it doesn't matter." I said, "And wow.....grandchildren.....I am more than two centuries old and I never imagined I would even consider being a grandfather in the future....funny how that works. But Riktor is but a babe, so I wouldn't have to worry about anything else. Then....there is the Lannister girl who I intend to put a child in..."

"My Father would only see your children as bastards." He said, "He would not accept such-"

"That is the point." I cut him off, "But they are not Bastards. They would be Drakkengards.....warriors who will terrorize your House for ages should you not accept my offer....."

"I...." Aemon said, "I will consider it."

"Good....." I said before appearing behind Daella, "As for this beauty....."

Daella jumped up in surprise, "A-Ah!"

"Leave her be." Aemon told me

I leaned down to her and gently took her hand, "Hello, sweet little girl." I said, "You must be Daella. I did not properly introduce myself earlier. Your sister was rather rash and annoying, was she not?"

She gulped, "I....I suppose so....."

"Your age?" I asked

"T-Ten and four...." she said nervously

"And you're being courted already?" I asked, "Hm.....what a shame....for a beautiful young girl like yourself to be sought after by worms like these.....tell me, why don't you give yourself to me and my House? I will keep you safe and a maiden until you are ready."

"E-eh?" she said

"Drakken, no." Aemon said as he looked at me, "My Mother would not wan-"

"I don't give a fuck, Aemon." I smirked, "Your Mother knows what I will do....."

"I will have your sisters."
