For all the todo the men outside of the door made, one would think that he'd killed a giant. She wouldn't think Daemon's request pathetic, but she did have to wonder about these other men. They acted as if they were the one deflowering a maiden. Tomorrow, she would be left to her own devices, as often happens to newly married women, while the men would drink and recount their experiences during the night.
Alicent shifted a little under his weight, feeling the sore state he'd left her neck in. She released the hilt of the dagger, reaching over to run her fingers against the lenth of her neck. Only a bit of pierced flesh, but the constant worrying by his teeth would see she was turned black and blue by the morning. Unless Rhaenyra came by, no one else would really see it outside of the servants.
Gently, she eases her legs back down to the mattress from his hips, wincing a little at her aching body. Now at least they could sleep more easily. Nothing had stopped the marriage from being consummated.
"They won't stand outside the doors all night, will they?"
