An uir

Chapter 7.

They heard loud knock at the door and Erestor started to get up.

“It must be Glorfindel. I’ll go and answer the door so he can see that I’m all right,” he said reluctantly. He didn’t want to leave Elrond’s warm embrace, not even for little moment. Despite his feelings, he started to dress himself quickly. Glorfindel would surely break if he didn’t answer the door.

He heard another, more impatient knock before he made his way to the door.

“I’m coming! You don’t need to break that door, Glor.” he called.

Erestor opened the door and Glorfindel was indeed at the corridor. Erestor noticed his friend’s knowing smile and blushed.

“Oh aye. You indeed have come and I suspect many times since I saw you yesterday.” Glorfindel whispered mischievously, leaning closer.

“Glor!” Erestor hissed, blushing even more, and pulled the Elda in the room. He didn’t want anybody to see them here, at least not yet. They needed a little more time to think of how to tell the household about their bonding.

Glorfindel’s smirk softened to a gentle smile when he studied Erestor’s flushed appearance more carefully. He noticed several love-bites on Erestor’s neck and his whole being radiated unreserved happiness.

“I can see that you are happy, tór dithen (little brother). That’s all I need to know. Go back to him. I’ll go to the breakfast and make sure that nobody disturbs you yet.

“Thank you, Glor. I am not quite ready to meet anyone, not just yet.”

“You don’t have to. You both need more time with each other and I can take care the things for a while. Imladris will surely do without her ruler at least for a couple of days.”

“I’m so happy, meldir (my friend). I love him so much.”

“If you are happy, I am too. But he had better to not hurt you anymore.” Glorfindel said, with more serious tone.

“There is no need to mother me, Glor. I love him and he loves me. “

“I’m sure he does, and I love you too. I have always wished you happiness.” Glorfindel whispered, and kissed Erestor’s brow before leaving.

Erestor went back to Elrond, dropped his robes onto floor and climbed back in Elrond’s waiting arms. Erestor sighed happily against his hervenn’s firm chest and felt a gentle hand caressing his hair.

“What did he say? Did he threaten to jerk me if I dared to hurt you?” Elrond asked, smiling.

“He is impossible! But he means well and promised to run Imladris for a couple of days for you,” Erestor explained, blushing.

“I’m very grateful for that. I have already found that I want to keep you all mine for a little while longer.” Elrond whispered softly, pulling him into a sweet loving kiss. He ran his hands through Erestor’s raven hair, taking pleasure of its silky softness.

“What about bath, meleth nín? I wish to wash you from head to toe,” he whispered when they finally broke their kiss.

“You are really going to pamper me, aren’t you?” Erestor laughed happily.

“Oh aye! And I’m going to love every moment of it.”

Elrond scooped Erestor in his arms and carried him to bathroom.

“I could walk on my own, you know.” Erestor remarked, but didn’t try to struggle away.

“I know. But I so enjoy having you in my arms after so many years of longing.”

Elrond started to fill the tub with warm water and added vanilla oil in it. Then he sat in the tub, placing Erestor on his lap. Their bath was a sensual combination of washing, loving and lazy kisses, and Elrond took every opportunity to caress his hervenn wherever he could. He smiled wickedly when he realized that Erestor was aroused from his ministrations. Gently, slowly he took hardened member in his hand and started to stroke it.

“Ai…meleth! You’ll surely undo me... ”, Erestor moaned, leaning closer in loving embrace, only to find Elrond’s erection pressing his buttocks. The steamy water felt hot on his skin, but he burned inside even more.

“You are incredible…so wanton…so ready for me. I want you so much.” Elrond whispered, kissing Erestor’s neck. How he loved this sensual, sexy creature in his arms.

“Have me then…now, right here. I ache for you!”

Erestor turned around with Elrond’s help, settling his lap. He trembled with anticipation, when he felt gentle fingers inside him, stretching his opening carefully. He moaned needily when Elrond captured his lips into searing kiss. He opened willingly, and a warm tongue thrust into his mouth, tasting him throroughly.

Erestor cried out his meleth’s name as he lowered himself slowly and took his length to the hilt. He panted heavily and heard Elrond’s low groans as he sat still, trying to adjust the shaft within him. Their joining felt heavenly and Erestor leaned closer to Elrond, feeling gentle hands smoothing his back and shoulders. He had never in is life felt as loved and treasured.

“Are you all right, Erestor nín?” Elrond asked softly, his eyes darkened with desire.

“This is third time you have asked me that. Now I can finally say yes. This is where I belong, in your arms, you deep within me, filling me with your love.”

“Ai meleth…melin chen…an uir.”

Erestor set a slow sensual pace, wanting this to last long. He wrapped his arms around Elrond’s neck giving his hervenn all of himself. Elrond supported his hips with his hands and they made love sweetly, gently, with all love they carried in their hearts. They swayed in heights of pure rapture, moaning and whispering words of love. When they finally reached their peaks, Elrond wrapped his arms around Erestor, holding him close. He felt hot tears in his eyes and first time in his life, he felt himself complete.

They kissed.

They were together.

When they finally left the tub, the water had gotten cool. Elrond saw small shivers running through Erestor’s body.

“You are chilled. Let me warm you,” he said, leading his hervenn back to bed. Erestor obeyed willingly. Perhaps Elrond overdid his pampering, but Erestor still accepted it. After so many years loneliness, Elrond’s love and affection felt divine.

It didn’t take long for Erestor to drift into reverie. He was safely in Elrond’s loving arms, and his whole being was warm and happy.

Elrond didn’t sleep immediately. He just held Erestor close, caressing his face and hair. In his mind, he sent a silent prayer of thanks to the Valar.

“You have granted to me a gift more precious than I am worthy to receive. He is so loving, so beautiful. It’s nothing but miracle that he loves me.”

Elrond had hardly ended his prayer, when he felt something. It was like someone was touching his mind carefully.

//So, you finally decided to not fight against that which was written in your life’s tapestry a long time ago. You are right. Your mate is one of the most incredible elves to ever live in Arda. His emotions are deep like The Endless Sea and that makes him more powerful than any other of his kin. Someone weaker would have faded long time ago because of your actions.//

Elrond trembled, and he had tears in his eyes.

//I’m so sorry, Híren. I didn’t know. I thought that I had no right to love him, to accept his love.//

//You must let Celebrían go. She is the mother of your children and that was meant to be but that part of your life is over. She is happy and free now, and she has her soul- mate beside her. You are nothing more than dear friend and happy memories to her.//

//I let her go. I have never wished anything but happiness for her. I turn to Erestor and will love him till the end of Arda.//

//So be it, my child, and remember this: we chose him for you for a reason. There will be great joy but also deep sorrow in your path. His love will be steady and solid, giving you strength to go on and your fate goes along with Arda’s future.//

//So be it. I’m greatly blessed to have him. I’m going to do my best to cherish and love Erestor till the end of Arda. I will keep him safe and give him everything I have, everything I am. All my love I give to him. This I swear. //

The connection faded, leaving silence behind. Elrond was stunned, but in his heart was in complete peace. Finally, he understood that this was what was meant to be all along; that this was what they were born for. What a fool he had been when he had tried to deny this. This precious creature, who slept peacefully in his arms, was the very reason to live and fulfill his quest.
