[ Those that knew knew, but most knew well enough to hold their tongue. Still, most thought Daemon the one who took Rhaenyra's virtue, not Cole. Alicent and Rhaenyra know the truth of the matter. And Daemon had figured it out easily enough. ]
Banished to cool the temper, welcomed back well enough when he missed me.
[ And if Rhaenyra and her husband are united in the front that her children are theirs, a bastard is easily wiped away as treason just the same, is it not? So Daemon would argue. ]
Plenty of women have trusted me with their bodies, dear Alicent and in that they have never had any complaints. My lover has left of her own accord, free to leave when she's no longer happy with our arrangement. [ That she was pissed when he'd made comments about marrying her to his brother, well, what can he say he didn't fault her for deciding they were done. Nor did he have any ill will toward her though. ] As for the woman my brother insisted I marry, we've never shared a bed and both of us prefer it that way. If you were to ask the Lady, she's more than happy I find my pleasures elsewhere while she hunts and lives her life. To me, how much more sincere can I be than to abide by her wishes?
