I was flying through the woods bordering Erebor taking in the spring time air and fresh scents of the blossoming flowers. I stopped when I heard crying not to far from where I was. Following the sound to find the source of the crying to see a little girl. She must have been at the tender age of five and alone. I flew up to her and sat on her hand. "What is wrong young one?" I asked her. She looked up and stared at me. Sniffling she used her other hand and started to wipe the tears away.

"A...are you a fairy?" she asked wide eyed. I nodded and she started to smile. She was a very pretty girl with black hair and bright blue eyes. Then suddenly she jumped as a loud boom of thunder sounded through out the forest. She threw her hands over her ears as she let out a sob of fear.

I knew that my other form was needed in this situation. I grew to the size of a very small adult woman. Only 4 foot 4 inches. Fairies are never that tall in their second form. Kneeling in front of her and putting my hand on her head. "Can you tell me what's wrong dear one?" I asked her. She flung herself into my arms and wailed. Putting my arms securely around her as she cried in my chest.

"I w...was playing with my cousins when I got lost in here. I want my p...papa and m...mama!" she sobbed. I picked her up as her arms went around my neck. She calmed down a little thanks to my healing touch.

"Do not fear dear one. I will get you home. Let's get you back to your parents," I whispered soothingly to her. She nodded and rested her head on my shoulder. If I remembered correctly this way would lead us out of the forest and to Erebor's gate. "My name is Raine what is your's?"

She sniffled and looked at me. "I am princess Lainie of Erebor. My papa is King Thorin and mama is Queen Adleia. My cousin's are Prince Fili and Prince Kili." So she is part of the royal family. This means that there will be someone looking for her. I better get her out of here as soon as possible.

We continued to walk or rather I did since I carried the frightened princess. I really hate walking and would rather fly but I can't in this form. Then I heard someone yelling. "Princess Lainie! Where are you!"

"Papa! Papa!" she yelled. I let her down and followed her we ran out of the forest and saw a group of dwarven warriors advancing on the woods. She ran right into a dwarf's arms as he picked her up looking relieved to see her again. "Oh papa I was so scared."

"Where have you been? We were all worried. And you!" He pointed his sword at me a look of disdain plastered on his face looking me up and down. "How dare you take her into the woods. You shall be punished." I paled at his words accusing me of kidnapping his daughter.

I didn't want to show them my true form to escape so I just stayed put. It wasn't until Lainie ran to my side taking my hand. "No papa! She was the one who found me and brought me back here. She is my friend, hurt her and I'll hate you." She hissed at her father making all of us look into the princess's form.

The king looked at his daughter then at me. "Is this true?" I bowed to him showing him he had my respect.

"It tis true your majesty. I was traveling through the woods when I found her lost after playing games with her cousins." I replied not looking up for fear of their disbelief.

"Then come and claim a reward for rescuing my daughter," he turned to leave. I shook my head and bowed again.

"Your majesty. Please I do not need anything besides a place to rest for the evening," I said quickly catching most of the dwarves off guard. He turned and looked at me.

"You do not want gold, gems, silver?" he asked. I shook my head.

"I do not. Such things weigh a person of my race down," I said winking at Lainie.

"So be it. A place for the night is your rewards. Come let us leave before we get caught in the storm." And with that we were off towards Erebor the great dwarven kingdom.

I was lead to a guest room down a long, dark corridor lit with many torches hanging on the wall. Walking into my room, seeing the bed I smiled and went over and laid in the bed and started to doze off. There was a knock on the door then it opened. Sitting up some to see who it was that was here. It was Lainie.

"Are you alright Raine?" she asked. I smiled and nodded.

"I am fine princess. What brings you here?" I asked. She shook her head and frowned at me.

"You don't have to use that title. Please just call me Lainie. I just wanted to make sure you were alright," she said smiling. I nodded that I was and she looked around. "Mama wants to meet you and thank you for saving me." She took my hand and lead me through the corridors of the kingdom.

We stopped at a huge door signalling that these were royal chambers. Lainie pushed them open and pulled me inside. Sitting on a huge bed reading was a beautiful woman heavy with child reading a book. She looked up and smiled setting the book aside.

"Lainie is this your fairy friend that you have told me so much about?" she asked. I nodded she smiled and held out her hand to me. I went and took it as she pulled me to her and hugged me. "Thank you so much for saving my daughter. Her and her cousins get into so much mischief when they play. Please sit down tell me about yourself."

The queen being very friendly was very easy to speak to. I found out that she is a half-breed. Half dwarf half hobbit. I told her about my home and race. I even showed her my true form at six inches high. "You have very beautiful wings my dear. I have heard that the wings contain a special powder that can cure any illness and injury. Is that true?"

"It tis indeed true my queen. That is one of the reasons we the fairy race are almost extinguished. For centuries we have been hunted for our wings. I, myself was almost caught but a friend of mine saved me." I flew a bit away and turned back into the other form.

"Please you may call me Adleia. Would you mind if you took Lainie to the nursery? I am getting tired and should probably rest before this new one arrives." I smiled and nodded.

"I certainly will Adleia but do you mind?" I asked looking down. She nodded and I placed my hand on her stomach and closed my eyes. Feeling the heart beats of two little ones, I smiled the waiting will be ending either tonight or very early tomorrow. "You will not have long to wait. They will come late tonight early tomorrow."

"How can you tell?" she asked very curiously. But then her face changed and looked down. "They?"

"Twins your majesty...Adleia. And it's a fairy thing. Rest up as much as you can. I will keep this dear one occupied." I stood up and Lainie gave her mom a kiss and kissed her belly. We left the chambers and headed for the nursery. Once Lainie was tucked into bed and told stories of my homeland and the beautiful creatures that were so different from here. She had fallen asleep and I headed for my own chambers.

Yawning and not looking where I was going I bumped into someone. "Oh excuse me," looking up into deep brown eyes and stubble instead of a beard. It was Prince Kili, he smiled at me and let go of me. "I am sorry I must be really tired."

"It is alright my lady. I see that you have kept my young cousin out of trouble. She has taken a shine to you how come?" he asked looking at me. "You are quite beautiful but short. You can't be an elf but your ears are slightly pointed." He touched my ears earning a shriek and stepping away from him. "Oh have I found a ticklish spot on the lady Raine?"

"H...how did you know my name?" I asked blushing like a tomato. He chuckled, he was very handsome I will give him that.

"My cousin told us your name while we were dining. Which I did not see you there. Are you hungry?" he inquired. I was about to protest when my stomach rumbled making me once again blush. "Well that answers that question. Come the kitchen is this way." He put his arm through mine and lead me to the kitchen.

We walked in silence to our destination. He had me sit while he asked Bombur to whip us up something to munch on. He came back with two plates loaded with food. I looked at him with the plates. "I am not going to eat all that." He laughed setting it down in front of me and one in front of himself.

"I would hope not. This is for me, I am a growing dwarf and in need of a snack. Go on dig in," he replied starting to eat his food. I took my fork and started in on the mountain of food in front of me. Once I was full leaving half my plate which he gladly took over and finished. The stories of the dwarves were really true that they can eat lots of food and not explode by the abundance of it.

Once he finished off my plate he smiled and grabbed his tankard and downed the ale. I just sipped on the water that filled mine. He finished off the liquid and let out a burp in satisfaction. "That was good."

"I'd have to agree with you my prince," I chuckled starting to get up. Taking the plates and heading to the kitchen to wash them when he stopped me.

"Let the kitchen staff get that. You are a guest you do not have to. And please you can call me Kili," he replied. I nodded setting the plates down and started to yawn. "Do you wish to retire for the night?" I nodded feeling ever so sleepy. "Let's get you back to your chambers."

Heading back to my room I started to get this uneasy feeling. My sensitive ears told me that the queen has indeed gone into labor. But something was wrong. "Kili take me to your uncle and aunt's chambers. Something is wrong," I replied. He looked at me and saw the look on my face meant that I was not joking around. He nodded and we went back to their chambers.

Rushing in I saw Adleia dripping with sweat. Thorin's sister Dis was there trying to help her sister-in-law. "Raine I am so glad you're here!" Adleia cried out. I rushed to her side putting a hand on her hardening stomach. Closing my eyes to sense the babies. The positions of the babies were not good.

"One is coming in a breech position. I think I can stop this one from coming to get the other out and help turn him around." I looked at her and she nodded.

Stepping back I swiftly turned into my true form and knelt above the breech baby. Closing my eyes and using all my powers to keep this one in place as the other baby was born.

Sweat dripped off my face "This may hurt." I informed her. She nodded and I started to help turn the baby. She screamed in pain as he turned but he was ultimately born head first.

Two cries filled the room as Adleia had given birth to two new princes of Erebor. I smiled but looked at Adleia. She was so exhausted and pale from the birth that I decided to help her out with some of my healing powder. I flew into the air and dusted her with it. Then it disappeared. She looked to be glowing with no signs of a battle bringing two new lives into this world.

Thorin came over to me as I sat on the dresser next to the bed. I was too tired and drained to transform back. He held out his hand for me to get on. "I am sorry I did not tell you my true race my king. As you have just seen my race has been hunted for centuries for the healing power of our wings."

"Hush now. I want to say some thing to you. I want to thank you for saving my wife and son's lives. If you were not here I am sure I would have lost them all. You may stay here as long as you wish. Your secret shall not leave this room and you shall be safe within these walls." I looked at him and nodded. To stay here will help me from ever fearing that I might get captured and my wings ripped off my back.

"Thank you my king," I bowed to him.

"Kili take Lady Raine back to her chambers so she may get a good nights rest. We will have a celebration tomorrow for the arrival of the princes' and for her as well. She has saved four of the royal family in just one day. She is a hero of Erebor and an honorary dwarf," he said handing me to Kili.

The next day everyone had turned out for the celebration of the birth of the two princes. And also to honor me who save all their lives. There was a feast and dancing. I danced with Fili, and a few other dwarf men. I even danced with Lainie. Lastly it was Kili's and my turn to dance.

Taking my hand we started to dance as a slow song took place of the fast pace songs. "You look beautiful tonight," he whispered making me blush.

"Thank you. you look very handsome yourself," I whispered back to him. He grinned that toothy grin of his. We continued to dance until the song ended and I was feeling rather tired and my feet were aching.

The festivities ended and everyone left the great hall and bid each other a good night. I went back to my chambers when someone took my hand. Looking at the owner of the hand to see that it was Lainie. "Raine can you come tuck me in? Mama and papa are too busy with the babies," she said yawning. I smiled and picked her up and took her to the nursery. Setting her down on the bed we chose out a sleeping outfit that she wanted. I helped her get changed and sat behind her combing out her long dark locks and braiding it in a simple braid. She laid down and got comfortable and started to fall asleep.

"Good night dear one sleep well," I whispered to her and she just hummed and went to sleep. I shut the door and turned around to come face to face with Kili. "You are a natural. She has taken to you," he whispered as we headed down the corridor.

"I am starting to see her as a little sister. Well here's my room I bid you good night Prince Kili," I bowed then kissed his cheek rather quickly and ducked inside. I went to bed and had many dreams of him.

Over the next few months we watched the boys grow, I spent a lot of time with Lainie since her parent's couldn't. Also I started to fall for our dark-haired prince. We went for a ride in the meadow between Dale and Erebor. We decided that a picnic sounded like a great idea. Fili and Lainie went off in search of some fruit while Kili and I stayed put. I was enjoying the sun when something blocked it.

"What do you want?" I asked lazily.

"I want you," he crashed his lips to mine catching me off guard but then slowly merged into the kiss. His hand rested on my cheek as the other held him above my form. His lips traveled to my jaw then down to my neck. Finding my sweet spot making me moan, he bit and sucked at the spot until I was writhing under him. "K...Kili." I gasped as his hands slid under the straps of my dress.

"K...Kili not here. Fili and Lanie will be back any moment," I gasped. He shook his head and attacked my neck.

"I asked Fili to take Lainie and not be back until the sun starts to set. We have hours love," he growled and slipped off my dress. I was blushing beat red laying in the grass as the day I was born.

His mouth skimmed my collar-bone then he traveled to my breasts his stubble scraping my skin. He took my left breast in his mouth and started to suck driving me wild. "Kili!" I moaned. Then he switched to my right breast and gave it the same treatment.

He growled as he shed his clothes off making me blush at the sight of his member. He smirked and crawled to me kissing me from my navel to my breasts. Nipping and sucking than continuing up my neck to my lips. Positioning himself at my entrance looking into my eyes. I nodded giving him my silent answer. He thrust himself into me causing me to gasp and whimper in pain. He stilled waiting for the pain to pass. Kissing my forehead and smoothing my hair.

Opening my eyes to look into his, which held so much love in them. He smiled and quickly smashed his lips on mine in a passionate kiss as he started to move slowly. Drawing out the pain and turning it to pleasure. As the pain slipped the pace was to slow and felt more like teasing.

"Kili...faster..." I pleaded against his lips. His eyes focused on mine for a moment before nodded and movement started to get faster. He bent his head in the crook of my neck attacking it. Biting, nipping, sucking and licking at the spot. His thrusts hit a spot inside making me scream his name. He continued to hit that same spot over and over. It did not take long until I fell over into the land of pleasure.

He was to far behind me as I felt his movements quicken then he came inside me with a groan of my name on his lips. His seed filled me as he fell into the valley with me. Riding each wave off the other. He collapsed on me our breathing short and ragged, our bodies drenched in sweat.

"That was amazing," I whispered earning a chuckle from him.

"Raine I have something I want to ask you." He rolled off me and pulled me into his chest. Looking into his eyes he was serious. "For days I have watched you take care of the infant cousins and make time for Lainie. They all love you. Even Uncle Thorin and Aunt Adleia. Even Fili likes you as if you were always his sister. I never want to let you go. Stay here with me? I will protect you. Please say you'll be mine?" he asked looking into my eyes.

"Yes Kili always. Your family has pretty much beome mine. I love the kids, Adleia, your brother and even King Thorin. Even knowing what I am you all have accepted me into you home and lives. I love you Kili." I kissed him.

"I love you to Raine," he whispered. Kili kissed me and smiled. He pulled me up so I was straddling his lap. Then we heard a bird call and he groaned.

"What's wrong love?" I asked him. He sat up making me slide into his lap.

"That is Fili. Lainie wants to come back. We should get dressed," he said. I nodded and we dressed just in time as the bundle of energy came flying up to us with a handful of flowers for me and her mother. Not to mention a basket filled with berries that they had gone off to get.

Lainie stood behind me and braided the flowers into my hair. When she finished she smiled and stepped back. "How does she look?" she asked her cousins.

"Beautiful," Kili said kissing my lips.

"You best masterpiece Lainie," Fili said smiling at us.
