Not even through death, A father’s tale!

Larien laughed and said, “Nay, what kind of bar maiden ou tou take me for? Besides, I do not give my love to just anyone, the Elf has to earn it.” She recalled the nights as well when he would come inside her chambers to sit and talk, eventually they both fell asleep.

“I see, well, I would never harm you fair, Larien or ask for your company like that any way. Besides, your soul is pure and I would not want to take that from you. Give your love to someone who will cherish it for the rest of your days. (There was silence for a moment) I know I would.” Legolas as he pushed back her golden locks behind her ear and a smile hit his face.

Larien smile back at Legolas when he spoke about love, “What does a prince know about love? You probably have Elf Maidens throwinemseemselves at you back home in Mirkwood. As I recall, you always had a new fling every time I came to your home.” Larien stated.

Legolas started to giggle at the statement, “Well this is true but I would like to settle down one day with the right Maiden, I could love someone, if only given the chance.” Legolas was speaking indirectly about her but he did not want to make it to obvious that he like Lady Larien.

They stared into each other’s eyes as Legolas reached over, touched her face, Larien closed her eyes thinking he was going to kiss her lips and fretfully he placed a kiss her forehead. Legolas wanted to kiss her but was shy of the fact that they had a history.

Larien’s eyes popped open as she felt his lips on her forehead. She knew Legolas had his reasons for not kissing her as she felt something, almost like something new, as sensations hit her emotions. He released the kiss and smiled at Larien knowing this was not the right time or place.

“I believe we both could use some rest, Larien.” Legolas spoke softly.

Larien did not want him to leave, “Could you stay with me, Legolas? I would feel more comfortable, if, (she looked down, afraid of asking, then she looked back up) you would hold me.” She said as he knew that this was turning into something more.

Not ever wanting to deny her of anything, “Aye, I will stay with you as you request, fair Larien.” Legolas answered as he bent down to kiss her hand.

Legolas pulled his pack off and pulled out two blankets as he unrolled them. He placed one of the blankets on the ground and the other on top of the other. Larien smiled as he always did what she requested, even as children when every one wanted to play something different, he would always stay and play her games.

She got up, sat down on the covers, took off her boots and got in under the covers. Legolas did the same, as they over looked the stream that was sparkling in the moonlight. He reached over and cradled Larien in his arms, as he looked deep into the rich blue-green eyes. The smell that radiated off her skin smelled of plumarias and sweet peas blossoming in the springtime.

Larien was taking in his forest scent after a cool rain in the fall. She remember the last night they shared a bed together as she silently wished for him to place an arm around her, almost reading her thoughts, he placed his arm around her, feeling protected by his embrace.

She stared into his loving eyes as she reached over and kissed his nose. Larien loved this and dreamed of the time when she would be looking into his eyes like this. Not being able to with hold himself any longer, he reached over and kissed her lips that were calling to him. He started slow as she granted him access, his tongue slipped inside her tasteful mouth. Larien’s tongue danced with his but she slow retracted because she was feeling a little warm between her le

“Legolas, I do not want to rush this between us. My whole body is feeling things for you, I am not sure if I am ready to feel those things yet.” Larien smiled sweetly as Legolas understood. They fell asleep in each other’s arms, as morning would be approaching soon.

When Larien awoke, Legolas was not around as she franticly looked around and found him at the stream. She got up and walked over to him, as she placed a hand on his shoulder. Turning around he smiled at Larien and got up from where he was sitting.

“Thank you, Legolas, for sharing a bed with me.” Larien spoke of only love in her tone.

Legolas stood staring at the most beautiful She-Elf and was falling in love with the goddess.

“You are quite welcome, my love.” Legolas reached over and kissed her once again.

Just then, Amras was shouting in the distance that bands of Orc’s were headed this way. He shouted for all his guards to be ative,ive, as they were getting ready to battle. Amras saw Lady Larien and Legolas by the lake as the two were looking to see what the commotion was all about.

Amras stated firmly, “Lady Larien, please come, I need to speak with you, bring Legolas with you!” Amras was afraid for the two daughters of Lord Elrond.

Larien and Legolas ran quickly over to Amras to see what was so urgent. The two approached Amras as he spoke, “I need for you to live the camp at once, Lady Larien and take Lady Arwen with you. Legolas, please lead them to safety back to Rivendell. There are a band of Orc’s headed this way, I believe it could get ugly for there are many of them.”

“I will lead Lady Larien and Lady Arwen back into Rivendell in the safety of their Father, Lord Elrond.” Legolas replied back to Amras.

Lady Larien broke in, “Why can I not stay and fight? I am just as good as any of these male Elves you have oute?” e?” Larien was a little stunned that he treated her like a defenseless child.

“Nay, my child, I made a promise to your father and I intend to keep it for your sake and your sisters.” Amras stated firmly.

Then, Lady Larien remembered Arwen was asleep, “I must warned Arwen for she is sleeping.” She ran off to find her sister as Legolas was not far behind.


Larien is always thinking about her sister.......
