He opened the door to his chambers. When you followed him in, all you could see was his bed and his room that was lit up by moonlight. It was beautiful. He gave you the orders to light up some candles so you did. Thranduil let his robe slide from his body onto the ground. He had this perfect broad shoulders. In candlelight, he looked even better. Suddenly he looked at you with his gazing ice-blue eyes. He had the kind of eyes that see right through you, and that is how you felt right now. You thought he expected you to pick up his robe, so you walked towards him, not sure what to do. "What are you doing?'' you heard him say. "Picking up your robe, my king. I didn't think that..'' you actually didn't know what to say. You muttered some words in yourself about why you are always so socially awkward. Thranduil walked towards his bed without saying a word. When he stood before his bed with his back to your side, he asked you a question. ''(Y/N), do you want to sleep in my bed tonight?'' you froze to the ground, you did absolutely not expect this question. ''Yes, my king. If your wish is that I will sleep in your bed tonight, that I am willing to do that.'' "No, I did not ask if you were willing to sleep in my bed because you're thinking that you have to. I asked you to sleep in my bed out of your free will.'' You stared at him, absolutely not knowing what to say. You had to say something. "Yes, my king. I want to sleep in your bed tonight.'' "Then put off your gown and come and lay with me.'' Your thoughts were a mess at the moment. Put off your nightgown? But you weren't wearing anything under this, let aside you couldn't even get your corset off by yourself. "But, majesty, I am not wearing anything under my gown, can I please go to get myself some proper nightwear?'' "Yes, you can, but please be back soon.'' "I will, my king.'' You said. You slowly walked out of his chamber. As soon as you closed the door behind you, you ran like the wind to get to the handmaidens. When you arrived at the handmaidens' residence, you were panting from running so fast. You asked them if you could get a nightgown to sleep in. "Why?'' They asked, while looking at you funny. "We thought you were sleeping in the cells?'' ''No, I'm not.'' You said. "I was given a chamber to sleep in..'' you couldn't tell them the truth. You didn't even know if it was usual for strangers to sleep in the Elvenking's bed. The handmaidens still looked funny at you, but they got you a nightgown. You looked for some place to change dresses. When you finally looked in the mirror, you saw that the nightgown was made of white-silver silk. You had to say you looked even more beautiful in this than in the green dress.
You walked back to Thranduil's chambers and you softly knocked on the door. "Who's there?'' Thranduil said. You softly opened the door and walked silently into the room. "It's me, your majesty. Where do you want me to sleep?'' "You look.. beautiful.'' Thranduil said. "Please, come lay here.'' He patted on the bed on the spot next to him. "I want you to blow out the candles first.'' You walked to the candles and blew them out. While you were walking towards the other side of the room, you felt his eyes burning on you. You knew he was looking at you and you had mixed feelings about that. You loved the attention, but you knew he would probably never love you, so you decided to ignore it.
The candles were out, and the only thing that lighted up the room was the moonlight. For a second or two, you looked out of the window and you saw the moon. It was full moon tonight, and it looked beautiful. "What are you looking at?'' you heard the king say. "Nothing, my lord.'' You said softly, and you walked towards the bed. You let yourself down very cautious. The bed was very soft. Just like the meal, you hadn't slept really well for maybe a month, so it felt absolutely good to even sit on a bed. "Please lay down.'' And so you lied down on this amazing bed. Not to forget next to a king.
"Where do you really come from, (Y/N)?'' The king said while he turned to you. You could see his eyes even better now. They were not only ice-blue, they even reminded you of diamonds, so beautiful were his eyes. "I don't know, my lord. I have always been a wanderer. I was raised by a hobbit in the Shire, but the urge to travel became too big so I left to go and see the world.''
"The Shire… I have heard about that. But you were raised by a hobbit? You don't know who your parents are?''
"No, I do not. The only thing I know is that my mother was an elf and my father was a Human.''
"You must've inherited the beauty from your mother, then.'' Thranduil said. It kind of startled you to hear that. ''Beauty?'' you said. "Yes, beauty. I think you are beautiful.'' As he said that, he lied his hand on your chin to pull you softly towards him. He kissed you. His lips tasted like the wine you drank at dinner, but this time you did like the taste. You softly felt the tip of his tongue against your lips and you opened your mouth. Suddenly you felt butterflies in your stomach. He started kissing you more passionately and you felt his hand lowering down to your breasts. "No, please don't.'' and you pulled away his hand. His mouth removed itself from yours and he looked at you startled. "Did I do something you don't like?'' ''No, my lord. I know you can't love me because you already bonded to another woman, so I won't allow you to use me like that. I am very sorry.'' You stood up from the bed and you left the room, leaving Thranduil behind. You didn't know where you had to spend the night now, so you went to the mews. You found yourself a nice haystack and you lied down on that. You fell asleep very soon, because you were very tired.
