Forbidden Love
Chapter One
a/n: Aragorn/OFC
The one ring… kept by Isildur when he should have listened to Elrond. Now the elves hide, they have no choice after keeping the ring Isildur began to have elves captured and killed on sight.
It would remain that way late into the third age, when Aragorn son of Arathorn who had been raised not to trust elves should he ever meet one, and if did he was to kill he or she on sight, would meet his first elf or so he thought.

He was out riding one day when he came across a young woman being attacked by a group of criminals. Without hesitating he charged and wounded some and scared off the others. He walked over to her she had blonde hair that came past her shoulders and beautiful blue eyes.
"Are you alright" he asked. She backed away slightly. "My name is Aragorn what's yours"
"Stay away, please" Aragorn was confused.
"Are you hurt? Is somebody after you? Please you can tell me. Let me help you." Then a man on horseback rode up a bow in hand arrow notched ready to be loosed. The blonde man gave Aragorn a hard look before he spoke to the woman.
"Are you alright?" she nodded she had never been so happy to see her brother in all her life. "Come on lets go" and with that Aragorn watched as she turned and leapt up behind the archer. When she did that her ears were visible. It was then Aragorn realized what he had done he had just saved an elf. He was supposed to kill elves, he realized that the other one had to be one as well.
"Try anything and I will kill you" the archer said as he gave the mare a gentle jab and rode off. When they were safely back in Mirkwood Enya hugged her brother.

"By the Valar Legolas I was so scared" Legolas held her tightly.
"Its alright, your safe little sister" Enya held onto her brother and cried. She had been attacked, her bodyguards killed, and nearly raped. Then she was saved by another man, a human one at that. Legolas spoke softly into her ear.
"Come on, lets get you something to eat. Then you can take a hot bath and get some rest" Enya nodded she knew her brother was very protective of her as they were the only family they had left their father Thranduil had been killed several years earlier, and their mother died not long after Enya was born. The oldest brother… they did not know where he was. He had been captured and sold as a slave, they believed him to be in Gondor but couldn't be sure.

Aragorn was still in shock he had just rescued an elf. He just hoped that no one from Gondor ever found out. So he got back on his horse and returned home. After handing the rains to a stable boy he went to his chambers. A few moments later his personal servant a man he called Daren as he did not know his real name.
"Are you alright sire?" It hurt him still being forced to say such things.
"Yes, I'm fine Daren. And I told you when its just the two of us you can call me Aragorn." he paused for a moment. "Daren can I tell you something in the strictest confidence."
"Of course, S…Aragorn"
"Today when I went out for a ride I came across a woman being attacked by some criminals. After I chased them off I began to speak to her… she was terrified of me even though I meant her no harm. Then out of nowhere a man on horseback comes up asks her if she is alright, and tells her to come. She just leapt on the horse like it was nothing after giving me a warning they ride off."
Daren was confused what was so important about that.
"Aragorn was there something else that you are not telling me?"
"Yes… they were both elves"
"Can you tell me what they looked like"
"She was beautiful, she had long blonde hair that came below her shoulders, and the most beautiful blue eyes. His hair was the same only his eyes were a different shade of blue" Daren smiled to himself. They were alive… his brother and sister were alive.
"Do not worry Aragorn I will tell no one"
