I awake with a start, oh? How did I end up in bed? The sun is rising; time to go take Lobor for a ride. I get dressed in pants, boots, tunic and my forest green cape. Then twist my hair in a French braid. I then go to down to the stables and hug Lobor, and get his saddle on him up and out for our morning ride.

As we are riding, about 30 minutes later Lobor gets spooked and throws me off into the river. As I stand from the river I see what it is. It is a huge spider, why did I need bring a sword or anything with me. It's circling me as I walk out of the water and I look at ground where it's lurking and then I imagine a root twisting around the spider to kill it and then that's what starts happening but not before the web attaches to my leg and starts pulling me but out of now where Lobor rushes back standing on his back feet hitting the spider on the head. I then put my hand down where the web is stuck to my feet and imagine a sharp vine. I grab it while it cutting it off, I cut into my leg. The spider is now dead but I fear there will be more. I stand and feel great pain where the web was as I lean on Lobor, I try my hardest to jump up but the pain is bad. I say to him "Lobor, kneel boy" He looks at me and realizes I'm hurt.

He then sits as I climb myself on him as I throw my hurt leg over him, I then say "Hurry boy, get me back as fast as you can."

It's about 20 minutes to get back, he as fast as he can. I see the gates the guards hurry to open it. The guards open the gate and yell something, I see Legolas run as he gets me off Lobor "What has happed Fae?"

I look up to him "Spider, in the forest got my l-eg. I'm sorry."

He looks confused as he rushes me to the healers. The next thing I realize that I'm in the healer's room and my father is next to me. He looks so upset till he sees me and says "Fae, what has happened?!"

The pain in my leg is too intense, I black out. When I wake, I feel someone holding my hand, so I squeeze it. Whoever it is seems to let out a deep breath of air. I open my eyes slowly and look to see the king holding my hand as I look into his stormy grey eyes.

I say weakly "M-y ki-ng, what has happened?"

He then says rubbing my knuckles "After that stupid act you pulled off by going in to the woods by yourself."

I look down and blush as he continues "The web had a toxin in it and the pain you felt was from an open cut you had on your leg and the toxin hit you blood stream. You are lucky to be alive."

He then says strongly as he lifts my chin with his finger "You are not going out by yourself, do you understand? You won't risk your life like that."

I then look to him after I roll my eyes as I move my chin from his grasp. I said sassy but weak "You can't do that, I need to be able to be by myself in nature and it doesn't matter because I leave next week with Arwen."

He then says "I can stop you from going next week, don't tempt my Fae."

I gain some strength and say "You think just because you are king, you can keep me away from my sister wedding?"

He then snatches my chin and runs a finger down the side of my face as I feel the electric threw my skin. "Being king is just an advantage but you know the real reason even if you don't want to admit it. Don't you, my love?"

I look at him and say as I end our skin to skin contact "I am not you're love."

A look goes over his face then on time like always my sister walks in and says "Fae, you are really selfish! Do you think of anyone else? What if you had been killed think of me, father or you're mat—"

I cough then say "I am fine, am I not? No need in saying it again. I made a mistake; I forgot to grab my sword. The king was just telling me that."

She finally realizes he is in here "Oh excuse me, my lord. I didn't hear you were in here."

I roll my eyes, how did she not? We are elves, we have great hearing. I am glad she interrupted, I am not sure I want to hear what the king has to say after what I said.

He then says "All is well Arwen" He then stands, gives me a hard look "We shall have a talk later, excuse me."

He then walks out and then Arwen says "You are something, why are you fighting this? You're human Alex, is never coming back, Fae. I have seen him dead, why can't you get over him; did you have sex with him?! Fae, please tell me you didn't?"

I blush as I look to left "No sister we did not do more than kiss, my virginity is still very much attached to me… Though he was not my mate, I still loved him very much."

She then sits on the bed "Fae, King Thranduil is your mate; you need to stop pulling away from him. It causes pain to your mate, you are hurting him. You don't want that, do you? I know you are young, so please don't make a grave mistake. Thinking before you act has never been your best quality, please think this threw. You will only hurt everyone in the end if you don't."

With that she kisses my forehead and then walks out, I think as I lay there. I have too much to think about, I then roll over and fall back asleep, as I hear the door open again.

The next time I wake up I am awoken by a maid, "Lady Fae, please get up. I need to get you ready for dinner."

I then open my eyes fast "How long was I asleep?"

She smiles "You got rest, my lady. You slept since yesterday's dinner time. The king thought it better if you rest from your accident, my lady."

I then say "Ok, umm. Let me get dressed then."

I sit up and then start to stand very slowly. I see the maid try to come over and help so I put my hand out for her to stop and say "I can walk myself to the Bath Chambers."

She nods "Yes, My Lady."

I finally get my leg to work properly and walk into the Bath chambers. She gives me my bath and then we it gets to my leg it stings like holy hell.

She then says "My lady, I am so sorry! Please forgive me!"

I give her a small smile "It's fine, please just get my dried and dressed so I can see my horse before dinner."

She bows and hurries "Yes my lady."

I roll my eyes as she puts me into a red/ gold dress today. Then healer comes in and looks at my leg, deems it okay but to take it easy.

She then does my hair, and put's my head piece on. Then my flat shoes, as I look in the mirror, I smile "Thank you very much! Now excuse me."

She says then with a smile "My pleasure, my lady. Dinner will start half past the hour."

I smile then walk out down the halls then off to the stables. I see Lobor; I walk up to him and say "Hey, did you miss me?"

His ears perk up and he struts to me and nudges me with his mouth and I hear him say. "I am glad to see you okay, I have missed you so much. I am sorry I threw you off master. I am glad you aren't hurt. Please forgive me."

He then bows in a weird horse way and I say patting his head "No need to worry, everyone is scared of something. Though I was quite happy I ended in the river, it was quite refreshing! There is nothing to forgive, but don't let it happened again!"

I realize it has been fifteen minutes, so I pet Lobor and then I told him I would come back later. I then run to the dinner hall, which was not a smart idea on this leg. I then walk in and see them just sitting down except the king who is already seated, I rush a little to sit with them; I bow "My lords". Then I sit down as my family sits. My father and sister seemed shocked that I am on time for once. I smile at my father who graces me with a small smile and I then look to the king as he looks at me with a look I cannot describe. I don't want to mess things up, we are meant to be, and we are mates. I give him a small smile, and then look across the table to Legolas and realize he has a guest, and his guest who happens to be a dwarf. I give a big smile to Legolas "Hello Prince Legolas, interesting company you do keep, not that I can say anything." I smile at the dwarf "Hello I am Fae, who might you be?"

He gives me a smile "Ay Pretty Lass, I am Gimli, son of Gloin. It is a pleasure to meet you."

I give a small smile and say dearly "The pleasure is all mine, I assure you, and I have never meet a dwarf in person. Maybe after dinner you can show me how to fight with an axe?!"

As I say that my father and sister say "No!" At the same time, which causes me to laugh then look to the king, who has a smirk on his face. My father then says with a serious look "No absolutely not, you don't need to learn another weapon, you are already too dangerous to yourself."

I then roll my eyes "I do not know of what you speak of father."

He then raises my eyebrow "Oh, you do not? Maybe Arwen would like to share a story of you then?"

I blush and say "No! I understand, but really I didn't hurt myself just everyone else."

Arwen has been quiet but as I look to her she grabs my hand to pull me into her vision.

Vision:

I am walking threw a town; I see a sign that says Lakewood on it. It's a human settlement, as I walk around with my cloak on and I turn to go in the shops, I then see a man that I haven't seen in a year. My human Alex I was in love with was stealing from a bakery for food and looking like he had not eaten in years. His eyes looked like they were dead. He then started to walk down another street, then he sat and ate the bread and I heard him whisper "If only Fae could see what her father did, oh how I miss her smile."

As I am pulled out of the vision, I feel nothing but fury, betrayal, anger and everything in between. I then drop her hand and acted like I was eating my food, I see everyone get tense around the table. My anger was starting to get to me, then my father asked "What did you see, Arwen?"

I look to her before she answers to father "You are a liar, you lied to me."

She then looks at me with sad look but I turned to look away from her. I didn't realize my hand was fisting on the table. She says something but I ignore it, I feel something grasp my hand and I look into his stormy grey eyes as I look in his eyes some of my anger starts ebb away. I squeeze his hand then take a deep breath as I close my eyes.

I then release his hand, and then try to breathe normal. I look to my father as he says "Fae, what is wrong?"

I then look to him as I glare at him "Why did you lie to me? He was everything to me dad, you threw him out like he was nothing."

He then gives me a hard look and says "I don't have to explain anything to you; he was a human, a mere human he didn't belong with you, he is not your mate. So why does it matter?"

I then glare at him "I don't care if he was my mate or not Father! You showed him no compassion and now he has to steal to live! Was this to punish me or him? You knew I loved him; he was great man before you put him on the streets!"

My father than says with a serious face "Why does it matter when your mate is here? You love you're dumb little human more than being with your mate?"

I then take a big gulp of air, trying to think how to phrase this correctly… I breathe out. "Yes for heaven sakes, I know my mate is here. I am not giving up my mate for Alex, father! I am merely worried about the human! I loved him till you told me he ran away with another human! But you kicked him out with just the clothes on him back, nothing for food, clothes or water! You talk of being compassionate towards everyone, but where has the compassion gone father? Did you forget that my mother was just a MERE human or that I'm half human? Maybe you should just throw me out on the streets as well then you would have never seen my as just a problem as well."

I then get up and bow, walking out of the dinner chambers not eaten anything.

I then roam around the halls a bit my anger fading for now, then I look to the throne room, I don't hear anything, so I enter. I walk in and see the owl Garther. I make a noise to come here and he tilts his head and hoots. I smile as I sit on the bottom step and he lands on my shoulder. He then rubs his head against my head and says "What troubles you my lady?"

I let out a deep breath "I don't really want to talk about that anymore. Share me something of your great king."

He hoots "He is a great king my lady, he will be an even greater mate to you. You all are equals, my lady. For he is sometimes mean, cold hearted to others, you are compassionate, loving strong minded. I believe you will get along well, after all they make no faults when pairing mates."

I smile "I hope so, Garther. Can you hold conversations with the kings as well?"

He hoots "Yes my lady, I talk to the king all the time."

I smile "That must be quite entertaining."

He hoots "You have no idea, my lady."

I rub my head against him and I say "How old are you, Garther?"

He hoots "I am 1000 years old, my lady."

I then was about to ask something else when Garther hoots and flies back to has cope next to the throne. I say "Gather, are you that bored of me already? I thought we have Forever." I then giggle as my stomach starts to growl. As I turn around I bump into something hard and as I'm about to fall I grab onto their shoulders as they wrap their arms around my waist. Then we fall to the ground as he falls on top of me, I didn't need to look up to see who it was because I could feel the mating bond between us.

I look up into the kings eyes for a second then I run my hand threw his hair that's in my face and then he bends down grabs the side of my face of my face and whispers "Mine." Before his lips capture mine.
