DISCLAIMER: OTHER THAN LORIEN, I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS IN THIS STORY, THEY ALL BELONG TO THE FANTASTICALLY TALENTED J.R.R. TOLKIEN AND I HAVE MERELY BORROWED THEM FOR THE SAKE OF A STORY. I, MYSELF, COULD NOT COME UP WITH A STORY SUCH AS LORD OF THE RINGS OR CREATE ANY OF THE CHARACTERS WITHIN THESE STORIES, SO I DO NOT PRETEND TO OWN ANY OF THEM. I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE STORY AND AGAIN, ONLY LORIEN IS MY CHARACTER.

Legolas and Lorien fell asleep in each other's arms, both delighted and relieved to be reunited with the other. Lorien had not been asleep long when she felt soft lips on her head. She opened her eyes and looked at Legolas and she smiled when she saw the glint in her eyes. He placed a finger on her lips to keep her silent before he kissed her passionately. His hands caressed her back softly before moving to the strings on her corset. He slowly undid them, pulling at them gently until it fell open. He moved her body so he could slip it from around her and he placed gently on the floor. Again his lips were on hers and one of his hands caressed the soft skin of her breast. Lorien let out a small moan from the back of her throat and her hands moved to the front of Legolas's tunic, slipping the buttons through their holes and discarding it on to the floor. Her hands ran over the tight muscle on his chest and abdomen before one slipped up his chest and teased a nipple. Legolas ground his hips against her in return, letting Lorien feel the undeniable signal in his trousers. Loriens lips left his and slowly she kissed his neck, tickling his soft skin with her tongue, gently grating her teeth against his neck. She descended down to his chest and kissed, nibbled and sucked causing Legolas to groan softly. Her mouth reached one of his nipples and she caressed it with her tongue and nibbled it gently. Her hands moved to his breaches and she pulled at the string that kept them tied to his slender waist. She slipped them down slowly and they joined the array of clothes already littering the floor. Her mouth left his nipple and she continued to kiss her way down, teasing and tormenting Legolas' aching body. She nibbled the skin between his belly button and groin before licking the tip of his glistening member. Lorien then kissed each of his thighs and legs until Legolas was almost calling out in frustration. Lorien returned to his excitement and slowly took it into her mouth. Soon she had built up a steady rhythm and teased the head with her tongue. Legolas began to shake and Lorien soon felt the warmth slipping down her throat. She kissed her way back up his body, teasing every inch of his skin on her way up. Lorien stopped and looked into Legolas' eyes until she felt his hands working their way up her long skirt. He massaged her buttocks before slipping a hand round and teasing her with a finger. Lorien moaned softly and Legolas pushed her on to her back. He then teased her body with his tongue, teasing her breasts and stomach before, unable to wait any longer he moved back up her body. He pushed the tip of his member against her and waited until her breath was coming out in short, fast gasps filled with anticipation. Legolas slowly moved inside of her until his body was firmly pressed against hers. Then he pulled out and drove back home, a thrust filled with both passion and love. They began to build up a slow and steady rhythm, both helping to make the moment last as long as possible. Legolas felt Lorien's body begin to shake softly and began the short, fast thrusts until her body was overcome with her orgasm and she was whispering his name into his ear. He felt her clamp down on him as she rode out her orgasm and he let himself go. He called out her name before resting his head on her shoulder. As they calmed down, Legolas kissed Loriens neck before looking into her eyes, still in the same position. He kissed her softly and stroked her long black hair. They were silent for a long while before Legolas pulled out and wrapped the covers around himself and Lorien before taking her into his arms.

'Are you feeling better?' Legolas asked softly.

'I have never felt more happy. There are times when you need the one you love by your side, and not just for emotional reasons. I certainly don't love you just for the physical side of our relationship, but it does feel good.'

'You do not have to explain anything to me. I do understand what you speak of. I think there are times when that moment between two lovers, a moment that is so personal and so special, well I think it's needed at times. Though after the last few days, I should be happy just to hold you in my arms and never let go.'

'I shall not leave you again, that I can promise you. Is everything alright with you, you seem a bit down.'

'I am worried, that is all.'

'What about my dear Legolas?'

'Aragorn.'

'Why do you worry for Aragorn? What has happened?'

'Nothing, I just worry that he cares about you too much.'

'What makes you think so Legolas? Arwen is the only woman Aragorn cares for.'

'No Lorien, he holds you dear to his heart, to dear at times. When he had news of your capture, he almost went ahead of me.'

'Aragorn and I have been friends for a very long time Legolas. When I used to walk out in the gardens of Gondor, I would sometimes see Aragorn riding with his fellow rangers. I knew him for Isildur's heir as soon as he spoke but he forbade me to call him so in front of his people. We formed a close friendship. Arwen is the woman he loves.'

'Maybe that is so.' Lorien placed her hands on Legolas' face and looked into his eyes.

'It would not matter to me if Aragorn did love me, it would go unrequited and would lose all hope of it being returned for I met you and the moment I met you, I fell in love with you. Aragorn never has and never will stir those feelings within me. When it comes to whom I love the most, beyond anything or anyone in the whole world, there can be no competitions or wars for you are the victor and you shall always remain so, whether we stay in Middle Earth or not.' Lorien continued to search Legolas's eyes and he responded with a smile, before he kissed her passionately. They hugged tightly before falling asleep in each other's arms.
