Breaking the Barriers

Disclaimer: I hold Tolkien in the utmost highest esteem. I borrowed his characters for this. The idea of the bonding enchantment is mine however.


Chapter 9

At the celebration of the bonding ceremony, everyone congratulated Estel and Legolas. There was food aplenty and Lindir and his minstrels played in the background. A special song was written for the happy couple and they took to the dance floor for the first time.

As Legolas took Estel's hand, he winked. He strolled with his love to the center of the dance floor. Lindir played a slow song so that the two could show their love for one another.

Estel looked at Legolas with all the love that he had for him. Taking Legolas in his arms in front of everyone, he felt nervous. This was the first time that he would show affection for his love in front of all Imladris. Never taking his eyes off his love, Estel brought his lips to Legolas' and kissed him passionately. His love for the elf was overwhelming. He never heard the whistles that trilled from the crowd.

Legolas felt exhilarated with passion when he looked into Estel's eyes. All of a sudden his love's lips were on his. The elf heard the ruckus in the background and smiled.

Estel felt the smile on Legolas' face and broke the kiss. Then he heard the noises in the background. They stopped dancing and Estel blushed at hearing the whistling and cheering.

They both looked around at the crowd and saw their smiles. Legolas looked at his love again and gathered him up in his arms, continuing with their dance.

After the dance had ended, Estel took his mate's hand and led him off the dance floor to where Elrond was sitting with Celeborn and Galadriel.

"Adar, we would like to thank you for the ceremony. We had a great time." Estel brought his love's fingers up to his lips and kissed them

"You're welcome, my sons," Elrond said. Calling Legolas his son never felt better. He had always loved the young elf. "We wish both of you all the happiness of Arda."

"Thank you, my lord," Legolas nodded. "I know I'll be happy." He brought Estel's hand to his lips and kissed it.

"As will I," Estel said looking at his love. "If you don't mind, we have a private ceremony of our own to attend." Estel grinned knowingly at Legolas, who was not sure what was going on, but was soon to find out.

"You two love birds go have fun," Galadriel said. "The three of us will look after things here. May the blessing of the Valar be upon you both. Glorfindel, would you show them to their room?"

"Yes, my lady. It will be my pleasure." Glorfindel led them away.

As they proceeded down the corridors, Legolas noticed that they weren't going to their own room. They stopped in front of a door and Glorfindel turned to face them.

"From this day forward, these will be your private rooms whenever you are in Imladris. You have everything you will need. All of your possessions have been moved over. Both of you have a wonderful time." With that, he bowed slightly to each of them and left.

Legolas turned to Estel with a questioning look. Estel's face brightened and he let go of a breath that he didn't realize he was holding.

"I'm as surprised as you are, my love," Estel stated. "I had some servants prepare something for us for the other room but I guess that spoiled the plan." Estel put his hand on the knob and turned it. He opened the door, and what he saw took his breath away. It was more elaborate than what he had planned.

The room was filled with soft, rain-scented candlelight and the fireplace was lit, with furs and pillows spread out before it. Set on a sideboard were a selection of cold finger foods: cheeses, pastries, fruit and sweet breads. The rooms, they found, were larger than their previous rooms. There was a four poster bed that was huge, with satin sheets and warm quilts. The bathroom was extraordinary. It contained a sunken tub with two shelves above it which were filled with oils and soaps. The balcony was sizeable, and on each end sat two chairs that overlooked a beautiful, fragrant garden with waterfalls in the background.

"This is the most amazing room that I have ever seen. What I had planned for the other room, they did here." Estel and Legolas had moved by the fireplace onto the furs. Estel gathered Legolas in his arms and kissed him passionately, exploring his love's mouth with his tongue.

Being kissed by Estel filled Legolas' heart with all the love it could ever possess. Legolas felt fingers on his tunic ties and moaned into Estel's mouth. He brought his fingers to Estel's ties and removed his tunic letting it slide to the floor.

Estel broke the kiss, needing to breathe. He watched as Legolas' tunic dropped to the floor. The elf's skin was so smooth that Estel couldn't resist running his thumbs over his nipples.

A purr escaped Legolas' mouth and his head fell back. Looking at his love, Estel ran his fingers down Legolas' chest until they neared the top of his leggings. Undoing the laces, he opened them and reached inside to grasp his lover's erection, stroking it tenderly.

Legolas let out a moan. He pushed his hips forward into his lover's hand. He could feel pre-cum leak from the end and brought his lover closer, needing the skin contact. He caressed Estel's ear with his tongue, leaving a trail of butterfly kisses to the collarbone, where he sucked on the skin, leaving a passion mark for all to see.

"Let's get out of these clothes and lie on the furs. I want you to make love to me, my husband," Estel whispered to the elf, removing his own clothes. It had been a while since Legolas had made love to him.

"My husband. I like the sound of that." Legolas pulled back and took the rest of his clothes off.

Estel watched as the elf doffed his breeches and boots. His erection grew harder as he watched his love undress. Reaching for Legolas, the elf took his hand and lay down beside him, kissing him passionately.

Legolas kissed Estel from his lips to his chin, working his way down to his throat and then across his chest to the left nipple where he nibbled and sucked on it.

Estel revelled in the kisses and then, when Legolas began to tease his nipple, he raised his hips, feeling the tingles go straight to his groin.

"Oh, Elbereth," Estel whimpered. "Make love to me."

"Soon, meleth," Legolas replied, and continued his ministrations, moving to Estel's other nipple, giving it the same treatment, wringing another cry from his love. While teasing the nipple, he brought his right hand down past the ribs and hips until his fingers found its treasure. Grabbing it gently with his fingers, Legolas stroked it and it jumped in his hand. He ran his finger over the tip, and was rewarded with an effusion of pre-release and a pleading moan from Estel.

The man hissed in pleasure, wanting the feelings to last forever. Then suddenly, he felt Legolas move down his body and his member was engulfed in his husband's mouth.

Legolas smiled inwardly at Estel's ecstatic cry, revelling in the power he had to provoke such a response. His own member throbbed in time to Estel's heartbeat as he tasted his lover's pre-release on the back of his tongue. Estel spread his legs and Legolas pressed his advantage, running his hand beneath the man's sac to his waiting opening.

Estel's senses were so high that he twisted the sheets in his fists. Feeling a finger at his private opening, he hissed at the pleasure it created. He opened his legs wider to give Legolas complete access.

Legolas removed his mouth from Estel and reached for the oil supplied by Glorfindel. Opening the vial, he poured some of the oil onto his fingers, then set it aside as he coated his member and used two fingers on his love's opening, massaging it.

"I love you," Legolas purred, looking into Estel's eyes.

"I love you, too, meleth nín," Estel replied back.

Legolas inserted two fingers into Estel, waiting until he felt the muscle give before continuing. Looking at Estel's erection, he noticed the small drops that had gathered on his lover's stomach. He licked his lips, lapped up the drops, and took the member into his mouth. He was trying to ease the tension in his love and it was working. In fact, Estel's toes curled and he grabbed the sheet tighter, almost making it rip.

Legolas removed his finger and returned with more oil, working in three fingers. This brought another moan from Estel. Legolas sucked hard, feeling the juices run down the back of his throat. He gently spread his fingers, stretching Estel's opening. Feeling Estel relax a bit more, he removed his fingers and positioned himself to make love to the man beneath him.

"Now my love," Legolas said softly, and Estel, overcome, merely nodded in response.

"Make love to me. I want you so much," Estel whispered.

Estel bucked his hips when he felt Legolas begin to enter him, so excited was he. The elf's member brushed up against his prostate and he gave a yell, nearly coming prematurely at the unexpected sensation.

Legolas looked into Estel's eyes and fell in love all over again. Legolas knew that inside this man there was a strength that someday would bring the people of Middle Earth together. He leaned over and kissed his love. At the same time he pulled out a little and thrust forward again, making Estel whimper. He paused at the sound.

Are you alright, my love? I didn't hurt you did I? Legolas asked, using his mind speak.

Estel heard Legolas in his mind, amazed and delighted to hear Legolas speak to him this way. No, my love, I'm alright. Estel took his legs and wrapped them around the waist of his love and pulled Legolas into him until the elf's hips hit the padding of his backside. Estel arched his back off the bed, feeling a bit of pain, but too caught up in the feeling of Legolas within him to feel anything but sheer pleasure.

The elf looked into his love's eyes again. He loved the color of them.

Move, my love, Estel thought.

Legolas started to move slowly not wanting to hurt Estel. He loved the man lying underneath him so much! He started trusting his hips more vigorously, building their passion to new heights. The elf adjusted his aim and heard a cry. Legolas kept hitting the spot until he felt himself was close to coming. He grabbed his lover's erection and started pumping.

When Estel felt fingers around his member and his prostate being hit at the same time, he arched his back, letting out a shout.

"Again, my love," Estel gasped. He was so close.

"Come for me, meleth." Legolas whispered. He pumped a little harder and hit the gland of the man below him. Suddenly he felt his lover's member twitch and then the man cried out his release. Juices flowed over Legolas' fingers and onto Estel's stomach.

Estel felt himself come undone. It was the most beautiful feeling he had ever experienced. Completely spent, he raised his hips off the bed and closed his eyes. His passion for the elf was so great that he felt in his soul his husband's love for him. It was the greatest passion he would ever know.

Legolas felt his lover's muscles clench and he released as well. He slumped onto the man breathing heavily. Raising his head, he lightly kissed Estel's lips, which felt like rose petals.

"I love you," he whispered.

"I love you too," Estel whispered back. His breathing was rapid with the remains of his passion. Sweat beaded his forehead.

When Legolas' member softened, he slowly withdrew, causing his lover to moan. He reached for a towel that had been placed beside the oil and cleaned them both. Legolas laid his head on Estel's shoulder and kissed his chest.

Estel thought the gesture of cleaning him was thoughtful of his love. He felt the kiss on his chest when Legolas snuggled up to him. Planting a kiss on Legolas' forehead, he settled into sleep.

//Night my love, sweet dreams,// Estel thought.

//Night, sweetheart, sweet dreams.// Legolas thought in reply.
