A/N: I just wanted to thank all my readers for the amazing response I am getting to this story. I can only write one maybe two chapters today because I have had a lot to do today! So without further ado Chapter 9...

delenawolves: Don't cry too much! hopefully this chapter makes you feel better!

Aranel Mereneth: I agree I think I did get a little OOC there. I made some changes to the chapter so if you want you can go back and read it. Leoglas' reaction is a bit different.

Ennairual: I will give them some cute moments don't worry!

Kaia: The Elf wasn't a gypsy she I think it said gossipy Elf. One of Iasbelin's ladies wrote to her husband who was on the guard with Legolas and told him that Iasbelin was pregnant. Iasbelin wasn't very happy with that.

leaksikeasieve: Thanks for the review I'm glad you like the story!

Chapter 9

"What?" Legolas asked "What do you mean she wasn't the only one." Legolas touched her cheek and looked at her broken wife.

"I... two weeks ago I had a miscarriage. I am not sure why I was even pregnant to begin with but the child was taken by Death once again." Iasbelin told Legolas.

"I'm sorry." That was all Legolas could say. He thought back two weeks ago to where he had been. Gimli, Aragorn, and himself had been in Lothlórien with the complete Fellowship. This was the second time he had not been with his wife during the most difficult time of her life. He felt terrible and wanted to go back and fix it all. He tried to push all his anger at her to the back of his mind and attempt to comfort her.

"I should have told you. I'm so sorry." Iasbelin cried "I felt so horrible."

"I know. I wish you would have told me though. I could have helped you. You did not have to go through this alone." Legolas soothed. He wrapped his arms around his sobbing wife and leaned back against the bed with her in his arms. She cried on his shoulder for what seemed like an Age. Legolas stroked her hair and told her that everything would be just fine. He was still angry at her for not telling him the truth when she should have but he looked at her little, weakened form in her arms and pitied the love of his life. When she finally looked up Iasbelin looked worse than when she had arrived.

"Where do we go from here?" Iasbelin asked with tears in her eyes.

"We rebuild what has been lost." Legolas told his wife "We try and pick up the pieces of our marriage and put them back together. This will not be an easy task. We have both wronged each other."

"You have done nothing wrong." Iasbelin told her husband

"No. I should not have been cold to you without explanation." Legolas answered

"You told me that it was my behavior." she said

"Yes that was a part of it you did turn into a court Elf and I hated it. I wanted the Elf I married back." Legolas said

"That was how I dealt with the grief. I hid all my emotions and it just turned into me completely changing."

"I understand. We will fix this I promise. I do not give up on things so idly." Legolas stated

"What about your father? He knows I cannot have children and I fear him." Iasbelin said as the tears started again. Legolas put his finger under her chin and brought her face up to eye level.

"Do not worry about my father I will take care of him." Legolas told her

"But I know that you want children as well." She cried

"I do want children and I would give anything if you were able to carry my child but that is not a possibility. We will figure it out do not worry. I doubt my father will need an heir anyways. Most of the Elves are sailing for the Undying Lands after the war is over. The time of Elves is passed and the reign of men will begin." Legolas told her

"I know. I watched Arwen depart for the Grey Havens. I do not want to go yet. I have not felt the pull of the sea. There is still something that bids me to Middle Earth." Iasbelin said as she wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Only time will tell." Legolas told her "You know I still love you no matter what happens I will always love you."

"I love you too." Iasbelin stated. She looked at this Elf holding her and wondered how she ever deserved some one as good as him.

"You are weary from your journey and need to sleep." Legolas told her as he picked her up from the floor and placed her on his bed.

"I agree." She yawned. Legolas covered her weak frame and looked at her carefully. She looked pale and sickly. He knew the trip here was a toll on her but he had never seen how much her depression had affected her physical form. If she wasn't an Elf he would say that she was on Death's door step. Legolas kissed her forehead and walked out of his room. He needed to find Aragorn.

Iasbelin walked in the gardens of Rivendell by her self on that cold morning. Arwen was packing to leave for the Grey Havens and Iasbelin was not willing to help her friend leave. She knew Arwen needed to stay but by some witchcraft she was convinced to leave. Iasbelin looked down and spotted a rose on the ground. She bent down to pick up the rose and noticed that her hands looked very thin. She left the rose where it was and stood back up. Iasbelin placed her hands out in front of her and looked at who frail they seemed. She knew she had not eaten that day or the day before that. She had recently been told that she was pregnant which pushed her into her depression once again. She spent her days on her balcony reading a book or writing letters. She knew she would not survive this pregnancy if it went to full term. She was surprised that she was even pregnant given her past. She knew that the child would most likely die within her or perhaps she was not pregnant at all and Elrond had been wrong.

'Of course he has to be wrong. You cannot have children.' She thought.

Iasbelin made her way to a lone bench at the edge of the garden and sat down on the seat. She felt weak and fatigued even though she had only been awake for a few hours. She was glad to be alone though. Iasbelin thought about Legolas and wondered what he was doing at the moment. She wondered if he would ever find out the truth about his daughter. He could die before she had a chance to tell him. Although, she could die as well before she saw him next.

Iasbelin sat at the bench for a good hour before she decided that it was time for her to go about her daily business. She stood up with help from the arm rest on the bench. When she was standing up right she screamed and fell back on the bench. She looked down at her white dress and saw the blood beginning to pool.

"No. No this cannot be happening again." Iasbelin looked around but found no one in the gardens. She decided that it would be best to try to make it back to her rooms. She stood up and felt the same pain but ignored it this time. She made it to the dining hall before she collapsed.

"Stop don't you dare think about that." Iasbelin told herself as she opened her eyes. She had been on the verge of sleep when the memory had found its way into her mind. She was crying again and she wished Legolas was there. She knew that he had gone to find Aragorn to talk about what had transpired between them. She gave up and tried to return back to sleep.

Legolas found his way to the library easily and entered to find Aragorn reading at a large desk in the center of the room.

"This is not Aragorn's Marriage Counseling. Your wife has already been here tonight." Aragorn mumbled as he looked up from his book. Legolas smirked and sat down in the chair across from his friend.

"Well hello to you too my friend." Legolas smiled

"Did she tell you?" Aragorn asked

"Yes she did along with many other things. I do not wish to bore you with the entire story so I will just sum it up." Aragorn nodded and Legolas continued "She was pregnant when I left three years ago to go on duty with the guard. She heard news that I was dead and went into deep depression, she stopped eating and as a result she went into labor early. The child was stillborn and because of some complications she can never carry a child to full term. After I did return safely from my duty she had a miscarriage and about two weeks ago she had another."

Aragorn stared at his friend. That was a lot to deal with in such a short time. He had just found all of this out tonight.

"That is quite a lot to deal with in one night, my friend." Aragorn said

"I know that we have to work through this but it is so damn difficult when she does not want to tell me things." Legolas said as he raised his voice and got up from the chair. He was pacing now.

"She deserves to be forgiven but do it on your own time." Aragorn advised

"How can I forgive her!? She killed our child!" Legolas picked up the first book that his hand found and threw it across the room. He sat down heavily in the chair and put his face in his hands. Aragorn looked up from his book again and sighed. He shut the book and looked at his Elven friend.

"She did not kill your child. Things happen in this world that we cannot control and this is one of them. It is not fair to her if you call her a murder." Aragorn sternly told Legolas

"She is not a murder." Legolas said

"That is what you just called her." Aragorn said in the same tone.

"I need some air" Legolas stated as he rose from his chair

"Take head,my friend, and do not be ill advised by your conscience." Aragorn told Legolas as he stormed out of the library.

"Elves" Aragorn said shaking his head
