“Your name is humming inside my chest. I think this is what it means to love. I think this is what it means to be living.”

Princess Helaena Targaryen and Ser Tristan Dormaire

Thanks for the ask (and for giving me an excuse to make a pretty lil moodboard for these two)!

Thanks for the ask! Wanted to try something different and went with Tristan x Helaena.

Lounging in bed beside Helaena, Tristan drew his hand along the soft skin of her hip. She hummed against his chest, a lazy smile spreading on her plump, pretty face. Tristan pressed a kiss to the top of her head. Her hair smelled like lilac and patchouli and bergamot, rich and sweet.

“You are so beautiful,” Tristan whispered into her silver hair. He kissed her again. “I wish we could be together like this always, without fear of someone finding us”

Helaena cupped the side of his face with her hand. She stroked his cheek, her touch as delicate as a butterfly’s wings.

“You are always with me,” she said softly. “I carry you in my heart, just like this.” She took his hand and guided it to her heart, beating below her breast. “No one else lives there like you.”

Tristan kissed her. “You have such a way with words,” he said. “I’ve not heard anything so sweet. But I have tasted it.”

He reached over to the bowl of honeyed strawberries and cream beside him, plucking one of the strawberries and dipping it in the sweet cream. He held it out towards Helaena.

“For you,” he said. “The only thing that can rival your sweetness.”

Helaena giggled, taking a bite out of the strawberry. The sticky red juice and honey dribbled down her chin and onto Tristan’s hand.

Kissing you on the forehead thank you so much for the request! This one was a lot of fun!
