Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction. I do not own any of the character, places, names, or anything associated with the works of J.R.R Tolkien or the Lord of the Rings (books or movie, whatever). My characters are Anita, Leila, and Arlandria and that is all.
Author's Note: So a quick search revealed to me that there are several other stories out there with the exact same title as mine, so to clarify I got the title from the song "45" by Shinedown…and actually that song inspired much of the story too.
Chapter 16: Animals
Once the boundaries had been pushed, it was only too easy for Legolas and Anita to hide their secret activities. It was all just a farce, a game that they played, being cordial and friendly around other elves and then exploring their sexual desires once they had any semblance of privacy. It worked just as Legolas had said; as long as no one saw them doing it, no one said a word about it even if they did know. Ani didn't know if her father was completely oblivious to the world around him or what, but if Elladan had any idea what was happening between the two, he never let on. Every day she went down to breakfast expecting her demons to come screaming to of the closet, but never did the subject cross her father's lips. Of course their constant butting heads over Ani's refusal to follow basic social protocol was doing a phenomenal job of keeping Elladan distracted from what was happening under his own roof.
The longer the duo's amorous activities went undiscovered, the more brazen they became. At first they had been careful to do it outside the city walls, the little tryst in the music den notwithstanding. But after a week of pushing their limits and not being caught, caution had been thrown to the wind. Anytime they could get their hands on each other they were doing; the gardens, the stables, her bedroom… no place was too risky to deter their sexual appetites.
Naturally their escapades came at a price, namely time. In their week of erotic adventures, Anita hadn't spent one second painting her bedroom like she ought to have been. The half painted outlines and background was now looming over her like a giant homage to her negligence. So the girl had made a choice, instead of amusing herself with Legolas' company, she sacrificed her Monday to continue her artsy labor of love. Not that she minded, she loved using art as her emotional release… but it was really hard even for painting to compete with the kind of release that Legolas offered her.
She did have to try and keep perspective though. The whole reason their charade was working so wonderfully was that Legolas would eventually leave, taking their secret with them. And he would leave, Anita reminded herself constantly, he would leave to return to his own home in Mirkwood. It was better not to get too attached, to depend on him for so much, she needed to learn to keep herself entertained an establish her identity away from the prince. Try as she might though, the girl couldn't help but feel herself becoming more attached to the elf every moment they were together. Better to start detaching now than end up in the middle of another mental break down , she reasoned in her own head.
So she spent a full day focusing on her painting, only ceasing for mealtimes, and then to immediately return to her work. Even as the day dwindled down though and the sun sank behind the mountains, Anita realized that this wouldn't be completed any time soon. As it stood with a full day's work, the only truly finished part of her walls was the color of the sky, the very first layer of her painting. She had toiled all day on, and had barely made a dent in, the mountain backdrop for the Tucson side of her wall. This was going to be her own Sistine Chapel, unlike Michelangelo however, Anita really did have eternity to finish it. With the fading sunlight and the poor light that the oil lamps gave off, her time of work was soon coming to an end; Ani knew from experience that the fasted way to destroy a work of art was to try and work on it in poor lighting.
" 'Iron bars can't hold my soul' ?" Ani turned when she heard none other than Legolas' voice coming from the doorway behind her. She glanced up at the wording which was scrawled across the area just below where wall and ceiling met.
"It's a song lyric," Anita set her paint brush down, ready to be done her labor for the day, and gave a full bodied stretch paired with a soft moan of delight as her muscles relaxed.
"I like it." The prince gave a nod of approval at her work before he fully stepped inside her bedroom. Anita noticed he carried a package of sorts, something wrapped in animal hide. The parcel was set on her vanity as Legolas cleared his throat before sheepishly addressing her again, "I have this for you."
Abandoning her place where she had been painting, the girl immediately went right to where he was standing next to her vanity and the package. Ani was, admittedly, taken by surprise that he brought her something. Undoing the delicately tied twine that wrapped around the parcel, Ani slowly unwrapped whatever was inside. Pulling the wrapping away, she discovered folded clothing inside, that when held up and inspected, revealed two sets of leggings and tunics in her size. The leggings were a dark brown and the tunics were green and silver , each subtly embroidered with the pattern of leaves and vines.
"After the disagreement you and your father had last week about your dress, I commissioned a seamstress to make riding clothes for you. Elladan always said that proper ladies don't wear such garments, but I do believe he will make an exception for you." Out of the corner of her eye, she could see that while he spoke, Legolas was watching her very closely for a reaction. But she didn't have one. Ani was so surprised by the gift that all she could do was stand there dumbfounded, mouth hanging ajar in shock.
Legolas had bought her a present. The cascade of strange emotions that overtook her only prolonged her speechlessness. After a long moment of silence from the girl , Legolas' face fell, taking her silence as a sign of discontent.
"You do not like them?" The unmasked hurt in his voice finally spurred Anita to talk again.
"Oh my god, Legolas these are beautiful. I can't believe you bought these for me. Thank you." What she did next was instinctual, it was what to do every time someone gave a gift. Setting down the fabric she reached over and wrapped her arms around the elf in a hug, which he returned. But it only took a second for Ani to realize what a mistake it had been to hug the elf. It was too familiar, too emotional, too intimate, and very much in contradiction to the way their relationship operated. What was worse how right it felt wrapped up in his arms; safe, protected, and cared for. It was scaring the shit out her. She had to do something, find some way to break away from his strong embrace and disrupt the current atmosphere between them.
"Want me to try them on?" It wasn't hard to glean her meaning from the seductive whisper. Sidling out of his grasp, she walked over to her bedroom door which she closed as quietly as could be accomplished before sliding the wooden lock into place. Resting her back against the now locked door, Ani waited for Legolas to make the next move. They both knew was no chance Anita was be able to try on new clothes, since the second any clothing got removed it was over for both of them.
Legolas didn't need the offer to be repeated. After only a seconds hesitation, the elf strode across the small gap between himself and the girl and placed his hands against the door on either side of her head; essentially pinning her in place. She liked it though; Legolas had understood this early on in their escapades, that Anita liked it when he played rough with her.
"How may I serve you tonight, my lord?" Those words being whispered, the way they sounded coming from this woman who had become the very object of his every sexual desire, it was enough to undo him. He responded by crushing her mouth with his own in a hungry kiss. Ani loved the way his mouth tasted as his tongue darted between her parted lips; he tasted like fresh mint and cucumber. His hands moved from their place on the door and down the length on her body, reaching their destination when they cupped her bottom and easily lifted her off the floor. It still amazed her how deceptively strong he was. She wrapped her legs around his middle, bringing their heated centers close together as the elf spun them away from the door and stalked to the bed, their lips never parting.
Legolas laid her form across the bed, but a gentle but firm push on his shoulders from the girl underneath him indicated for him to roll over. As he lay on his back, Ani moved to straddle him, giving her the complete advantage of control. She quickly undid his tunic and removed the fabric from his body before moving onto his leggings. Undoing the knot, she slid the fabric down over his hips just enough to offer her access to his hardened member. Ani grasped the base of his manhood and slowly stroked up and down the shaft, drawing groans from the elf she was tormenting. Adjusting her position for better access, the girl leaned down and ran the tip of her tongue from base to tip along the length of him, which earned her a hiss as Legolas sucked air in through his teeth. She took just the tip of him in her mouth and gently sucked the tender flesh.
"Anita…" His throaty rasping gasp was a warning that this kind of teasing wasn't going to be tolerated much longer, as it was Legolas' knuckles her white from gripping the ornately decorated headboard in a death grip. She relented and released him from her torturous grip to tease him in another way. Painstakingly slow, the girl began to remove her clothing. Hooking the edges of her tee shirt, she pulled the fabric slowly and sensually over her head before throwing it aside. Lolling her head back, she shook her hair out , tantalizing the elf tormented since she had chosen not to remove her bra. With some quick maneuvering, she slid her basketball shorts off, leaving her there in just her bra and panties. Anita knew it was dangerous to toy with the elf this way, especially since he had already shown that he had little or no capability to deny her. If she didn't give Legolas what he wanted and soon, she would lose control of the situation…and it sure was fun being the one in control.
His intense eyes grew darker as he watched Ani reach back and unhook the clasps at the back of her bra to discard it, and then sliding her panties off, slowly removed the last shreds of fabric from her body. The slow erotic torment that this girl was putting him through was pushing him to his limits, and he couldn't take it anymore. Reaching up, Legolas' hand wrapped around her back pulling the girl towards him as he sat up. His mouth latched onto one breast as his free hand massaged the other, rolling the rosy peak between his thumb and forefinger. Ani sighed in satisfaction as the elf continued his assault on her breasts, and she rhythmically moved her core against his.
Anita had reached her own limit and needed to feel him inside her, filling her completely. Reaching between them , she took his hardened member and guided him to her entrance, impaling herself on his throbbing organ. Legolas' mouth moved from her breast up to her collarbone, running his teeth along the sensitive flesh and reveling in the sounds it pulled from Anita. She was trying to keep their bodily rhythm slow and steady, but the feel of him inside her mixed with the way his mouth felt on her neck had every nerve ending burning, and the movement of her hips faltered as a result. Legolas moved his hands down to her hips, steadying her movement as well as giving him leverage to push up into the welcome feeling of hot wetness.
The speed and intensity of Legolas' added hip thrusts soon had Anita gasping as she drew near her release. Looking up into her face as her inner muscles began to quiver and contract, Legolas was surprised to see Anita had her eyes squeezed shut and her bottom lip firmly clenched between her teeth to muffle the sounds of her orgasm.
Oh there would be none of that.
The prince understood that Ani was desperately trying to keep their activities secret by keeping herself quiet, but he would not be denied the sounds of pleasure that their coupling produced. Untangling himself from her legs, he roughly pushed her into a kneeling position on the bed. Removing his pants to leave himself fully naked, Legolas moved behind her to enter her again. Anita let out a gasp as Legolas thrust into body again as she tried to recover from her orgasm. Now it was her turn to grip the headboard for support in what was rapidly becoming her favorite sex position.
The powerful thrusting from behind was encouraging Ani to be more vocal, but the elf knew she was still holding back. Ever since their tryst in the music den, Legolas would no longer settle for anything short of complete release if he knew he could get her to scream… and that is exactly what he wanted from her tonight. He slid one hand to her hip and the other moved to the spot between her breasts to support her as he adjusted their position again. Pulling her upwards, he simultaneously rocked back so he was in an upright kneeling position, with Ani straddling him but facing away. The angle was perfect, and with the first thrust in their new orientation Ani let out a sudden, sharp utterance of pleasure.
Legolas continued to push harder and faster, the girl's fully audible sounds of ecstasy driving him towards the goal of dual release. Anita reached back behind them both and grasped the back of Legolas head, threading her fingers through his soft blonde hair; needing something…anything…to anchor her to this world as the need to climax again completely took over her senses.
"Legolas…" The sounds of her breathlessly whimpering his name was almost enough by itself to push the elf over the edge. The hand that had been supporting her hip crept its way forward between her thighs to tease the secret pleasure mound. The movements of his fingers gently rubbing the nub between her legs on top of the jarring pace of his solid slick organ pumping in an out of her was too much for Anita. Her cries and gasps filled the room, ever getting louder; and if she had retained the ability to have coherent thought at this point she would have been concerned about alerting the whole house to their fun.
Anita's second orgasm of the night was barreling down on her fast, every nerve tingled and every muscle was constricted in expectation of her release. Squeezing her eyes shut, her back arched sharply as a scream of pleasure tore from her throat. Legolas let out a groan as his own release sent tremors through his whole being. The sensation of her inner walls milking his juices drew a moan from the prince as they remained stationary in their position, allowing themselves a few moments to quiver in the aftermath of their actions. Ani's entire body had gone limp in the wake of her second climax of the night, and the only thing holding up her listless frame was Legolas' strong arms.
"That was amazing." The girl's voice was quiet and hoarse, the rush of endorphins relaxing her so completely that sleep hovered just at the edge of her consciousness. Carefully the elf moved so that Anita could be laid out and could rest her head on the pillows. Her black and purple hair splayed out around her head like a two-toned halo. Once settled, Legolas laid next to her and pulled her small body against his solid frame before shifting the cream colored sheets to cover their naked bodies. Ever so gently, the prince leaned over and kissed his lover on her forehead as she fell asleep in his arms.
