CHAPTER 13
Elladan's eyes widened.
" What?"
Erestor nodded.
" If you want Hadereth's eye off of your Ada, I will have to return to him."
Elladan frantically shook his head. He began to sob.
" No, you cannot."
Erestor sat up slightly and pulled Elladan into his arms.
" Elladan nin, do not cry. Saes."
Elladan kissed Erestor's cheek.
" I cannot bare the thought of you being with Hadereth."
Erestor kissed Elladan's forehead.
" I know meleth nin, but it the only way to get him away from your Ada."
Elrohir heard a knock at the door and opened it. There stood Elrond. He saw that Elladan was crying and immediately was concerned.
" Elladan, is all well with you?"
Elladan hurriedly wiped his eyes.
" I am fine Ada."
Elrond decided it might be best to let the matter go.
" I have an announcement to make. I will be leaving for Mirkwood on the morrow."
Erestor swallowed hard.
" Why?"
Elrond smiled.
" Since Celebrian and I are only wed for political purposes, we have given each other permission to find our mates of soul. I have found mine and will be going with him to his home."
Elrohir nearly groaned.
" You do not mean..."
Elrond nodded.
" Yes. Hadereth is my mate of soul."
