Same declaimers apply throughout the story; I own nothing except my original characters like Kevin or Eleanor. Thanks you for reviewing my story!

The Double Cross Chapter 3
"How can you do this to me!" Legolas exclaimed, trying to keep himself sane, swearing to himself that he will never again fight with a woman! He will never be able to pull something like this off. Rumors should be flying around by now. He can even picture the headlines: "Prince Legolas 'attacked' a mortal woman due to the lack of control over his hormones."; "Prince Legolas, who showed no interest in any woman, brought a mortal woman into his chamber and they were about to…when the guards came in."; etc. Hell, explaining would do no good in these kinds of situations.
The woman, who was the one to blame, blinked a few times and shrugged, giving him the 'I have no idea what the hell you are talking about and I am not about to find out' look. She continued to explore his chamber, paying no attention whatsoever to the owner of the room. For a prince, this is one empty chamber. There was only a bed on her right; the blanket was on the floor due to their brawl. At the left of the bed, there was a door leading to the balcony. There was no other furniture in the room. Some prince she thought sadly, pitying him. No wonder he has such a screwed up personality. It must be because his father's lack of love and recognition for him, even though he's a prince. Woe to him.
Legolas pointed accusingly at her, "you! What did I ever do to you? I can forgive you for not being able to control you feelings over me and therefore wanting to see me at this particular time. However, you simply cannot enter my room dressed in those indecent clothes!".
The lady turned around and narrowed her eyes as Legolas kept rambling on. Stay calm, stay calm. He must be a little mentally unbalanced, he has to be. Looking at his empty room practically told her the whole story. Due to the ignorance of his father, he become an introvert and has bad tempers. She must forgive him, damn, suddenly she felt like she's the nicest person in the world or something.
Looking at herself, it wasn't as if she is naked or anything. Sure the zipper of her coat came undone, but 'whose' fault is it in the first place she wondered. Inside, she wore a navy blue tank-top, showing her bellybutton. Her pants didn't seem to be in bad shape despite of the fighting; only a little wrinkles here and there. How it is 'indecent' was beyond her. Well maybe it's because she is not wearing any clothes of any brand, stupid royal people. But hell, why does she need to put up with it in the first place, it wasn't even her fault that he was demented.
She walked towards the door and turned the knob when Legolas placed his hand against the door. "Don't you dare exit this room until you tell me how you can come in here without me knowing."
"Fuck off!!" the woman screamed. Legolas rolled his eyes, another topic for gossiping coming right up. "Don't you 'you you' me all the time mister. I have name and it's Eleanor, Eleanor Chan."
"Eleanor Chan," Legolas sneered, "I have never even heard of it. Where are you from and what is your business here in my room at this hour and all wet too."
"If I knew, I wouldn't even be in here. I was fighting, and then I was thrown off the bridge. So here I am all wet and soggy and only about to be raped by some mentally crazy person who started to yell at me!"
Legolas was about to talk back when a bizarre noise stopped him.
Ring~~~
The cell phone!!
Eleanor reached to her back when she realized that her bag wasn't there. She ran out to the balcony when she realized it was where the sound was coming from. Where? Where is the damn cell phone!
"Looking for this?" Legolas said lifting her backpack up with his left hand. Eleanor snatched the bag from him and dumped all the stuff out of her bag. Legolas was awed with things he has never seen before: different boxes that vary in different sizes and objects that resembled a cylinder shape (mascara, lipstick, make-ups). Eleanor picked up a glowing rectangular box; it seemed to him that it is the object that projects that ringing noise.
"Hello?"
"Eleanor, I am glad you made it out alright." It was said with a touch of humor and it belonged to a voice that Eleanor so familiar to her that she never can and never will forget. But it is impossible right?
"Bilbo?"
"I am phoning to give you your next assignment."
