I do not own the Lord of the Rings (and associated) book series, nor any of the characters from it. I do not make any money from the writing of this story.
Problems aplenty
I give up...three times that last chapter was deleted.............
Haldir awoke and realized immediately that his sleep had not been natural, that a spell had been put on him. Not seeing Tiger, he sat up and called for her. Tiger, sitting in the sunshine, entered the room with a big smile on her face.
"Did you bespell me?" Haldir asked curiously.
She looked surprised and said, "No Master. You said Tiger was never to do that to you."
Haldir knew she wouldn't lie to him and got up to dress. Still he couldn't shake off the thought that someone had put a spell on him to keep him asleep. "Tiger, was anyone else in here?" he asked curiously. Tiger frowned, and that told him everything. "Who was it?" he asked.
"Old Master," she answered softly, a touch of fear in her voice.
"What did he want?" Haldir asked gravely now, although he suspected he knew the answer already.
"Prometheus wanted to see Tiger," she answered timidly, afraid of the anger she saw growing in his eyes.
"Did you fuck him?" Haldir spat angrily.
Tears welled up in Tiger's eyes. "Yes," she answered softly.
Haldir ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. "Why can't you say no to him?" he demanded sharply. "Why can't you love only me?"
"I do love you," she reassured him.
"But not as much as you love him. If you had to choose, I would be the loser, wouldn't I?"
Tiger blinked hard and the tears fell down her face. "Tiger loves Master with all her heart," she whispered softly.
"Then why do you love him?" Haldir demanded sharply, a rap on the door stopping him in mid thought.
"Who is it?" he growled and yanked the door open. It was Glorfindel. "What do you want."
Glorfindel looked at Haldir and then at the weeping Tiger and frowned. "I had hoped he had gone on his way without stopping here."
"You knew Prometheus was about and didn't think to wake me?" Haldir snapped angrily. "Well he was here all right. I guess he's going to fuck her every chance he gets."
"That's not why he came. He wants us to leave and go back to Greece."
"Why?"
"Because we are in danger here," Glorfindel explained. "That boy Argo is in some sort of prison, and if we keep looking for him, we will find him but not the way we'd like it."
"Fuck Prometheus!" Haldir hissed. "I wish I had never heard that name. We gave Aristaleonis our word that we would find her son...she's even given us money in advance. I'm not going back without that boy."
"What of her?" Glorfindel asked and nodded at the silently sobbing Tiger, her face in her hands.
"What can I do? I'd throw her out, let him have her,if I could do it," Haldir growled, not at all sympathetic towards her. Almost desperate, he said, "I can't give her up. She's in my blood, my soul."
"I know," Glorfindel agreed, wondering now who was trapped, the jinn tiger or the elf.

Ariadne stood on the balcony overlooking the great garden. She needed to speak to Menelaus about taking the elves back to the mainland with him. If they stayed here Minotaur would kill them; he had made that clear last night. Minotaur had also made it clear the strange tiger woman was to be taken captive. Too much, too much.
