“The unspoken agreement of the family is that Helaena will do things to make it easier for Alicent. She’ll marry Aegon, a brother who sh- she doesn’t even think likes her. […] Does she want the path that her mother’s endured?”
— Phia on Helaena being used politically for TVLine

Aemond doesn't leave King's Landing at the end of episode 8. So, with Alicent and Aegon gone, Helaena and Aemond (+ Jaehaera) are the last ones left in the castle.
This means they'll likely be in scenes together early next season. I wonder what will happen?

Aemond reaches out a quivering hand to Helaena’s forearm, just brushing her dress.
This is the antithesis of his earlier mistreatment, a thing he deeply regrets.

The actress originally auditioned for Helaena and looks quite similar to her. This was a passing appearance, but as she was in the trailer, she'll likely reoccur and be more relevant soon.

Helaena is poised towards Aemond and partly hiding behind him by this point. Perhaps Helaena senses the danger, and fears what their brother might become.

Helaena's gaze is a detached sadness, with a single tear in her eye.
Aemond's malice is nothing. She sees his desperation as he battles the gods and his destiny. But she is calm, grounded in her fate.
Her eyes briefly drift, lingering on Aemond's features, maybe even his lips.

"Come with me... to Harrenhal."
A teary-eyed Aemond pleads with Helaena to join him on his path, despite knowing she won’t. The gentle and inviting words contrast his previous aggression, displaying his guilt/regret.
A decayed bond won't stop his craving for her companionship.

Alicent could not get through to Aemond, but Helaena did. Made him cry, even.
She is the only person who is capable of doing so - to slip past that emotional armour and touch his heart.

“Aemond's increasingly volatile rage, sexual violence doesn't align with how he's purged that anger […] Aegon is the documented rapist […] the brothers are diametrically opposed in almost every way.”

“And so the scene where he’s arguing with Alicent and that leaves the room, what was happening — and I don’t know if it reads, it was all kind of between the lines — is that he left because he saw that he hurt Helaena.”

A leak from way back before season one premiered. This person took down their posts due to copyright, but they got a lot of things correct and were known as reliable.

Aemond’s desperation and thirst for power hurts the person he cares for the most. This war is destroying him, and his purest relationship. Helaena remains angry, and rightfully so.
This tenderness he shows is a rarity, and speaks volumes how easily his mask comes off around her.
Aemond reaches out a quivering hand to Helaena’s forearm, just brushing her dress.
This is the antithesis of his earlier mistreatment, a thing he deeply regrets.
The first real remorse we see from Aemond this season, a man who burns innocents, and it is with Helaena.
