The Elf and the Man - part 1
Tumblr media
Far too long have you remained in the shadows, waiting to return to what you love. You have a quest at hand, but what comes after? Will your life be as before or will you choose another path?
A/N: Hi everyone! I am back after not posting for 3 years! Gosh I’m so sorry, I haven’t had the motivation, but to make up for that I have a new fic with either 3 or 5 parts. I haven’t decided were this story ends so I guess you guys will decide for me haha! Anyways, this is a Thranduil x Bard x reader, as many of you have requested, and this first one is mostly about Thranduil! This is the first story in a long time that I’m really proud of, so I hope you like it! Enjoy!

The Greenwood forest was a lot darker than you last remembered. The wind was blowing a bit colder and the trees where silent. The leaves that used to be a beautiful green had turned brown and the sun’s rays couldn’t reach the forest floor. You knew what caused this, and you knew why the forest couldn’t fight back. You hadn’t told the company of who you where or what your purpose was on this quest. But as you neared the heart of the forest, you remembered your life there. Your life with him. You had promised yourself to never look upon the king of Mirkwood again, yet here stood the royal guard, ready to take you to him. You stood in the very back of the company, desperate to not be noticed. You failed miserably.
“Tell me, why is an elf traveling with a company of dwarves and halflings?” Legolas asked. You knew that voice anywhere, how sweet it was to hear his voice again.
“Mae-govannen Legolas,” you said.
Legolas walked over to you and saw your (E/C) eyes smiling back at him. 
“It cannot be!” he said in disbelief.  
Legolas approached you at a slow pace. When he reached you, he reached out his hands to remove your hood. His hands were shaking with both fear and anticipation. 
“Don’t you dare touch her boy!”, Thorin bellowed and neared you. Legolas didn’t care about the dwarf leader. All his attention was on you. 
“It’s alright Thorin,” you said and held up your hand to stop him. You gave him a reassuring nod and so he took a step back. 
“How can this be, the battle of Gundabad…” he paused. “…you died mother.” You reached for his hands and held them gently. All eyes were on the two of you. You had a lot to explain to the company. 
“Yes, I was slain, your father was with me when it happened. However, the Valar of middle earth brought me back. My purpose on this earth is not yet done,” you responded. He smiled with teary eyes. 
“I have missed you so very much mother,” he whispered and embraced you in a hug. 
“And I u my son,” you said with a shaking breath. When the elves of the king’s guard realized that you were in fact the Queen, they all bowed and showed their respect to you. 
“Excuse me, but what the bloody hell is going on Y/N?” Kili asked. You hadn’t noticed his question, being to busy hugging the life out of your son. Luckily Tauriel could give him a discreet answer. 
“Be careful dwarf, you are looking upon the Queen of the Woodlan realm, The Queen of Stars. We all thought she was gone, until now,” she whispered. Kili was as confused as all the other dwarves and hobbit in the company. 
“You’re telling me Y/N, our lass, is THE Queen of all Queens, forget it. She is a legend and a story, Y/N however is real!” he responded.
“She IS real, as all the stories is about her, however her ending needs to be changed for she has returned,” Tauriel said. Kilis mouth opened in disbelief as the others did the same. All except Thorin, he always knew there was something special about you.
“Elentári,(Queen of Stars)” he said with a smile.
                                                        ***
When you and the company entered the throne room, you felt a sense of relief, to finally be home. But at the same time fear to face your husband after centuries apart. Legolas had not yet told the King of your return. This was something that you had to do yourself. You knew what pain your husband had gone through since that sorrowful day, because you had felt the same. That was one of the reasons you never returned…you feared for his heart. But most of all you feared of him not wanting you anymore. 
“Tell me, why is there a woman in your company?” Thranduil asked. All eyes were on you once again. 
“Father, you better take this else were!” Legolas warned. Thranduil gave Legolas a look and then returned his attention to you. Your heart pounded faster for every minuet that passed. 
“Remove your hood!” Thranduil commanded. You let out a faint sight, you had feared for this moment for so long, but at the same time longing for it. When you revealed yourself, something shifted in Thranduil, he fell back on his throne and held a hand on his heart.  
“Lacaraitë! (Impossible)” he whispered in disbeliefe. It was like he had seen a ghost, which was true in a way. 
“Leave us!” Thranduil bellowed. His voice echoed through the throne room and the guards didn’t need to be told twice. Everyone was escorted out, all except for you. 
“I he- I held you the day you were slain, how is this possible?” he asked gently. You approached his throne with careful steps. 
“The Valar blessed me with a new life, another chance to for fill my purpose on this earth,” you explained. He walked down his throne, so he could speak face to face. 
“After all these years, why haven’t you returned to me meleth nín (my love)?” he cooed. Thranduil caressed your cheek, and o how you had missed his presence. This was all too much, and so a tear fell from your eye. Never in your deepest dreams you thought that you would meet him again. You thought you had to live this new life alone, without love.
“ú-chebin estel anim Thranduil (I have kept no hope for myself),” you whispered with a shaking breath. He embraced you and held you tight. 
“Meleth nín, I will never part from you ever again, I love you” he said lovingly.
You met his tearful eyes and he smiled at you. Finely, after hundreds of years, you kissed. The kiss was filled with so much passion and love that you thought you would burst. When you pulled away pure joy and love was the only thing visible in his eyes. You could live in this moment forever, but it made you realize what lies ahead. 
“But I can’t stay, I have a quest at hand that I must fulfil. If not, I was brought back for no reason,” you whispered. His smile fell, and the realization dawned on him. 
“And why are these halflings more important, than being by my side Y/N?” he said sternly.
“War is coming, neither you like it or not my love! Both good and evil will fight for that mountain, and so will I!” you said fiercely.
You stepped away from him and walked to your old chambers. Thranduil was left alone with his thoughts. He knew what he had to do to keep his Queen.
“Guards! Put the dwarves in the dungeon and let them root,” he said with a wicked smile.  
                                                        ***
You sat in your old chambers, nothing had changed. Even your old dresses were still there. You reached for your favorite one, your battle attire. This dress was different, it was synched in the waist with a corset like shape which was plated with silver armor. The dress was floor length with long sleeves and shifted in silver and dark green colors. What made it practical was the slit in the middle of the skirt. That way you could easily move your legs. With it came a pair of long boots and plain tights. You changed into it and continued to explore the room. Your crown sat on a pedestal right by the window. It was as beautiful as the day you last saw it. Beneath it sat a silver plate with one simple word carved into it.
“Elentári (Queen of Stars),” you read aloud. 
You smiled once again at who you were and who you will always be. As your sister Arwen was the evening star, you were the morning star. That was why you were called the Queen of Stars. You wondered how the future would be, would the Valar allow you to live your old life again? Would you even return after this quest was finished? Suddenly your thoughts were interrupted by Legolas who opened the door. 
“Naneth (mother), the dwarves, they have escaped!” Legolas warned. 
“Legolas, what do you mean that they have escaped, they were never prisoners?” you asked. Legolas gave you a guilty look. Of course, Thranduil was going to keep you here no matter who stood in his way. In this case your fellow companions. You sprung to your feet and grabbed your cloak. 
“I must go! Show me which way they went!” you commanded. 
“But naneth, they must be far away by now,” he responded. You patted your sons’ shoulder. 
“Have you forgotten my skill in hunting?” You said with a smile. “You got your speed from me, not your father. If he wants to sit out this war…so be it. I cannot!” you said and ran out of the room.  
Guess who she will meet in part 2 ;)

Love Confessions
Tumblr media
Part 11 of Far From Home
Summary: After leaving Fili, Kili, Ria, Bofur, and Oin make their way to Erebor where love confessions are made
Pairing: you'll have to read to see. I don't want to spoil it
Warnings: none
Word Count: 1255
I helped Fili carry his brother into Bard's house and sat him down on the couch. At this point his fever was so bad he was in a daze. He was covered in sweat and if I didn't know what was going to happen I would be worried for him. Just like I knew Fili was. I could see it in his slumped shoulders, the way he held Kili's hand. The sad, worried look in his blue eyes. He looked like someone who had lost their best friend, whose puppy died. It made me whimper seeing him like that. It was just so heartbreaking.
“Fili,” I said as I took a seat next to him. He turned and looked at me and I could tell he was trying not to cry. “I know you probably won't believe me, but Kili is going to be just fine. I promise. Tauriel and Legolas are going to show up in a bit and using the kingsfoil Bofur gets from the pigs she's going to save his life. I swear,” I said.
Fili's eyes seemed to have a little more shine to them now that he knew Kili would be saved, but I could also see there was some confusion there. “Why are Tauriel and Legolas going to show up?”
“Because--” An orc coming through the door interrupted me. “Of that.” I stripped and shifted. The house was really small and it made fighting the orcs hard, but I managed it. I kept them away from the kids, but Kili still got pulled into the floor.
When all the orcs were gone I shifted back and got dressed. Tauriel was so worried about saving Kili she didn't even notice what I had done. I rolled my eyes and helped hold Kili down as she chanted in elvish saving his life. I even grinned when he started spouting lovey dovey nonsense to her. If I had my way those two would be together in the end. He would live and her heart wouldn't be shattered.
Now that Kili was healed though we had other problems to deal with. Smaug was coming and we had to escape.  I helped get the kids into a boat, Tauriel was guiding it and I watched as the dragon flew overhead. It was a terrifying sight to see. The screams were so loud, the smell of burning wood, and of flesh penetrated my nostrils, and I could see lives being lost. It had been bad watching it on tv, but actually witnessing it was completely different. Much like everything else I had seen on this journey. It was so much more horrifying to see and experience than it was to watch.
But at least Bard had gotten a lot of people to leave. More lives would be saved because of my quick thinking. The people would be safe outside of Laketown. Though it was clear he hadn't been able to convince everyone.
I was so caught up in my thoughts that I barely registered the others shouting at Bain to come back. “Let him go. He has to get the arrow to Bard,” I told them. They all looked at me in confusion, wondering if I was crazy or if I actually knew what I was talking about. Of course when the dragon was shot down they realized I did know what I was talking about.
Standing on the lake shore I saw the girls trying to find Bard and Bain. I could also see Kili talking to Tauriel, trying to convince her to come with us. Just when it seemed like she was going to, Legolas showed up and she left, but not before Kili gave her, his stone.
“It'll be alright Kee. You'll be together soon enough,” I told him. He looked over at me and smiled. The hope shining in his eyes proved that I was doing in the right thing in wanted to keep him alive and help him be with her.
Walking over the rocky terrain and grassy knolls to reach the gates of Erebor, I hummed the song from Lord of The Rings. I just couldn't help myself because I knew when filming this scene the actors had done the same thing. It was my way if paying homage to them and my world. A world I knew I was never going back to. Just before we walked inside the gate I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned and saw it was Fili that had stopped me. “Is something wrong?”
“Before we go in there, there's something I have to say. I've kept it inside for longer than I should have. And I know there's a good chance you don't feel the same way, but I have to say this.” He took a deep breath and gazed into my eyes. “You are the most beautiful woman I have ever met. The stars are dim in comparison to you, the moon weeps because she knows you outshine her. And you're not just physically beautiful. You're beautiful on the inside as well. The way you take care of all of us, how protective you are, the way you do everything in your power to make sure we're warm and fed.” He stepped closer to me and cupped my cheeks.
My heart was racing as I stared back at him. Blue eyes locked with blue. I couldn't believe this was happening. So long I had been afraid to fall in love. My heart had been broken and I feared it happening again. Because of what I was I found it hard to trust. Never knowing what would happen once the truth about me came out. I had walls built up, but they had been knocked down by the dwarf standing in front of me.
“The truth is Ria. I've grown very fond of you. There isn't a moment that you aren't on my mind. Even when Kili was hurt and I thought I was going to lose him, I thanked Mahal I had you with me and you hadn't been hurt as well. I would be lost without you. You hold my heart even though I'm not sure I hold yours. I love you Alexandria. And I think I have since the moment you climbed on my pony on that day right on the edge of the shire.”
I looked at him as he confessed that he loved me, a smile upon my face. Since I was technically living in my favorite movie I would like to think at this very moment Here With You by Sick Puppies would be playing as I gazed into his eyes. Moving closer I press my lips to his. It had been him I had fallen so hard for. Him I had almost told down in the dungeons that I loved. And this time there was no one to interrupt as I wrapped my arms around his neck and poured all the love and care I had for him into our kiss.
Pulling away he rested his forehead against mine. “Does that mean?”
“I love you too, Fili. More than I ever thought it was possible. And I know with you I won't have to worry about getting my heart broken.”
“No you won't. I will do everything in my power to keep that from happening. I promise.” He pressed his lips to mine once more.
I let out a sigh as we broke apart. “I think it's time we go found the others.”
