Summary
Aemond remembers falling from his mount and plunging into Gods Eye Lake.
He remembers dying with the faint memory of Helaena's visions echoing throughout his head. He remembers walking into a dark tunnel and reaching for the light... When he awakens once more, he is back to the very morning after he lost his eye.
This time, he is no longer the son of a scheming queen but rather the heir to the Iron Throne.

Summary
They say that, in the moments before death, you can see your life flash before your eyes. As he plummeted toward his end, Daemon Targaryen didn't see a fucking thing. But many thoughts raced through his mind.
He had always told himself he had no regrets. But that wasn’t true.
He regretted surrendering his crown to his ungrateful niece. He regretted marrying her. He regretted letting her place Harwin Strong’s children above his own—if Aegon and Viserys were even his at all.
His eyes searched the sky for the great green beast, but it had already vanished beneath the waters of the God's Eye, taking its rider with it. Bitterness and fury gripped the Rogue Prince. Everything he had done—everything he had sacrificed—had been for the honor and glory of House Targaryen. And for what? So a drunkard or a spoiled child could sit the Iron Throne? His House had been reduced to a shadow of what it once was, and history would remember him as nothing more than a consort—the lapdog of a whore queen.
He closed his eyes, awaiting death’s cold embrace, and in that final instant, he wished—if only for a moment—that he could do it all over again.

Summary
Alicent Hightower died in 133 AC and woke up from a bad dream. Only that it was not a bad dream, but rather her past life.
Determined, Alicent wishes to avoid the Dance of Dragons and the heartbreak her father, Otto Hightower, inflicted upon her life and that of her children. But the timelines have changed. Viserys is not named heir. Aemma is sicker than before. The Old King and the Good Queen are alive.
How can Alicent stop the Dance of Dragons now? Will war come or peace will follow?
So... what if Alicent was half Targaryen? What if Ceryse Hightower would have had a daughter with Maegor, but kept the child a secret? What would happen if Daemon would marry a lady with Valyrian blood? How would Westeros change if Daemon was named heir at the Great Council?
Surprisingly, the Alicent Hightower she was born into, is no mere Hightower, but the great-great-granddaughter of Ceryse Hightower, with the blood of Maegor the Curel running through her veins.
All credit goes to George R.R. Martin. This story is different from the original, although most characters are the ones from canon.

Summary
Before the storm broke and the dragons danced, before oaths were shattered and crowns were bled for, there were two girls in the viper’s den of the Red Keep: one born to silence, the other to thunder.
Alicent Hightower, raised in the shadows of scriptoriums and septs, is brought to court by her father, Otto Hightower. She’s placed as a weapon, not a daughter. Torn from her home in Oldtown, she enters the Red Keep as a quiet shadow behind Queen Aemma, her father’s offering to a decaying crown. Pious, poised, and perilously clever, Alicent is taught to smile at ruin and kneel before power. But even silk can slice.
Valla Ruthermont, hailing from where the sea kissed the sky, is brought to court by Otto Hightower’s quiet design, not as a guest, but as a gamble. Bargained from her family and taken from her lands in the Stormlands, she is placed in the Red Keep to serve and observe. But storms do not stay silent.
Two girls will become the broken mirror of one another.
What begins as companionship becomes the kindling of treason and legacy, while love, in all its forbidden forms, begins to root and rot beneath gilded halls and changing banners.

Summary
Alicent and Rhaenyra had met as they had ended, because of their fathers, in a room that felt stiff and impersonal, wearing high-end dresses that somehow clawed at their skin, with revised and respectful words on their tongues—she held a polite smile while Rhaenyra held a true Targaryen scowl.
OR
This wouldn't end another way, not even in a modern world.
