    Summary

    In 97AC, Lady Aemma of House Arryn, died after giving birth to her and Prince Viserys' daughter, who he named as Rhaenyra Targaryen. After the mourning period was over, King Jaehaerys arranged a match between Prince Viserys to the poised and well-mannered Lady Alicent Hightower, a court favorite who had made a strong impression on the aging king. They were soon married in the Great Sept of the Palace. In 98AC, Lady Alicent gave birth to a son and named him Aegon, and the court began to whisper of his place in the line of succession.

    Yet in 103AC, when Prince Viserys was crowned King Viserys the First and his second wife as Queen Consort Alicent, the King shocked the realm when he decided to name Rhaenyra, the daughter of his first wife as his heir and not the son born of his second wife. The decision caused tension behind the walls of the Red Keep.

    And the realm, ever watchful, began to ask: what would become of the Targaryen legacy when fire and blood ran in more than one line?

    Summary

    Little is known about Viserra Targaryen. She was the most beautiful of Queen Alysanne Targaryen's daughters, a vain, wild, and ambitious girl. When she was fifteen, her mother betrothed her to Lord Manderly, a man old enough to be her grandfather. No one was willing to speak against the match, so she tried to seduce her widowed brother, Baelon and gain her freedom. Unsuccessful and resigned to her fate, Viserra snuck out with her friends for one last night of laughter. On their way back, there was an accident, and the Princess fell from her horse and died.

    Or: Viserra did not die that night, and instead, the Fourteen Flames showed her the horrors of the future. Forewarned, she will stop at nothing to protect those she loves.

    Next chapter by July 29th!

    Summary

    Far from her Terran home, the fiery academic Amanda Grayson must settle into the ways of Vulcan life and learn to conceal her human emotions - but when a mysterious, handsome ambassador with a dark past fixes his attention on her, he awakens her heart to passionate desire. Can she face the challenge of living on a new planet - or will she break at loving a man who has forsworn to feel?

    Banned twice from publication on Vulcan for it's salacious contents, Illogical Desires is the first part of the Vulcan/Human romance novel cycle of a mysterious anonymous author, who is no other that Ambassador Sarek himself. In an attempt to connect with his feelings and with the romantic culture of his wife's home planet, Sarek has penned "Illogical Desires", a highly fictionalised account of his and Amanda's courtship. At the publication, the work sparked outrage among the Vulcan elite for its rich details on Vulcan courtship, feeling and intimacy - now digitised, the original, uncensored manuscript can be made available to the public (but don't tell the Vulcan High council).
