by BlackWitchCurse

Elf were known to love once and once only for the rest of their long life, however, there are some lucky elf that get a second opportunity at love, a second opportunity at happiness. This is the case of King Thranduil of Mirkwood, the name Bilbo Baggings could be clearly seen in his left wrist, the name of his new love. MalexMale, Slash.

1. Prologue

Hello I'm back with a new story, this will be based of The Hobbit: the Battle of the Five Armies. The pairing will be Thranduil&Bilbo 'cause I have always like the idea of them two together ever since I read the book and saw the movies. The story will be MalexMale, Slash, so if you don't like it or don't feel comfortable with this pairing then please don't read. The story will be based off the movies and the books so if you only saw the movies and see pieces that did not appear in the movie then it was probably in the book.

Spoilers alert: to those who have not yet seen the movies or read the books there will be spoilers.

Disclaimer: I do NOT own The Hobbit, or/and LOTR, all the credit for that goes to the author, I only own the story and the idea. I do this out of pleasure without any benefit, besides the opportunity of giving a new story who also love this pairing.

Thranduil has had a long life, really long in fact, he had seen many things and known many more. Things rarely surprise him anymore and, dare he say it, life was getting quite boring. He could never have imagine for the life in him that a simple and ordinary hobbit would change that. Bilbo Baggings was something special, he was innocent but not foolish, courageous but not arrogant, polite and respectful. He wanted to know more about the Halfling. The first time he had seen the hobbit he had been surprise at the strange feelings he had gotten upon his entrance to Thranduil's tent. He didn't paid much attention then, he had been busy with other matters like the fact that the hobbit had been brave in giving the king's stone to Bard. He had tried to convince Bilbo to stay with them, and not only him Bard and Gandalf had try to reason with the Hobbit that going back to the mountain would be dangerous should Thorin find out, Gandalf had been the one to take matters into his own hands, calling out to a Men he told him to look for a room in which Bilbo could stay and only after Bilbo was out of earshot the wizard told the men to keep an eye on him and tell him immediately should the Hobbit attempt to leave.

Thranduil watched the Hobbit go with a feeling of emptiness inside him, although the reason for such feeling he did not know, after the Hobbit departed with the Men Gandalf left and so did Bard, leaving Thranduil alone with his thoughts. He could not explain the emotions that he was feeling this instant, he had heard about Hobbits before, had even seen their homeland although he had never held a conversation with one before. Now alone with his thoughts Thranduil thought back to the emotions he felt when he saw the Hobbit, he had wanted to protect him, to keep him safe and out of harm's way, wanted to make sure he was comfortable and in good health, taken care of, he had only felt like this two times before in his long life, when he first met his wife and when Legolas had been born and he had to take care of him by himself. But with his son had been a different kind of protectiveness, what he felt for Bilbo had been more like what he had felt for his wife, that day he first saw her, long oh so long ago. With a start Thranduil realized something and it was only further confirmed by a sharp burning pain on his left wrist, looking down Thranduil saw words forming on his pale and smooth skin.

-"No, it can't be possible"- Thranduil murmured in disbelieve, there was no way this could be happening yet here it was, the name on his left wrist, in the same place where the name of his wife used to be, in the same place where all elf first find out the name of their true love, their mate, their One. King Thranduil, the Elvenking of Mirkwood, known for his cold exterior, had been given a second change at love, at being happy once again and with non-other than Bilbo Baggins a Hobbit from the Shire, his new found love.
