Two hours later, Thorin returned to the guest home, followed by Gandalf. "Thorin, where in the hell were you? You had me worried!" snapped Olivia. Thorin noticed that Fili, Kili and Elsie are also present. Thorin grinned. "You're looking at your new King!" smiled Thorin. "WHAT?! But how? How?!" asked Olivia with excitement. "Gandalf dethroned him." said Thorin. Gandalf told them the story. "He will be returning to the Iron Hills as we speak. Its safe for you and Thorin to return home now. The coronation is going to take place tomorrow." smiled Gandalf. "OH THORIN!" cried out Olivia, and she threw her arms around the dwarf, hugging him tightly. "Come, our people are waiting!" grinned Thorin. "HURRAY!" cheered Fili and Kili dancing about the room. As Thorin, Olivia, Elsie, Fili and Kili made their trip back home, many of the townspeople following cheering behind them, alongside with many of the dwarves who gathered in the townsquare that day.  Some were even chanting songs about Thorin.  Olivia's heart so warmed and moved by the gesture, tears of joy streaming down her face. When they arrived in Erebor, Dis ran to them hugging both Thorin and Olivia. "I'm so glad you have returned! I heard the great news of what Gandalf had done." said Dis. Olivia smiled. "And tonight, we're going to celebrate!" said Thorin.  

Later that evening, The royal family held a small private celebration. Olivia laughed at the antics of Fili, Kili and Bofur, and their joke telling.  Even Elsie threw in some of her jokes. Some of her jokes were rather dirty, but the dwarves loved it. "We love it when your sister tell us dirty jokes. They're hilarous!" laughed Fili. "Where's Tauriel? I thought she would be visiting you today?" Olivia asked Kili. "She's working. She's been helping Legolas fighting off spiders." said Kili. "That place is still infesting with spiders?" asked Thorin. "Unfortunately." said Kili. "Considering the horrible place they live near is why the spiders are breeding." said Gloin.  "I wish they would colonize to a more safer forest. No wonder Thranduil is struggling." said Elsie. "There  is more to it than that, Elsie." said Thorin. As the night progressed, all the dwarves felt in a singing mood, and took out their instruments, and Thorin went for his harp, and joined them, and they sang several songs that night.

Olivia couldn't help but admire Thorin as he played and sang with his companions. Her heart rejoiced that everything turned out the way it should be, and she hoped it would stay that way too.  Thorin turned his attention to Olivia as he played and sang, smiling at her, he could see in Olivia's eyes that she wanted him.  After playing several songs with the dwarves, Thorin walked away from his harp, allowing the others to continue their playing, and he approached Olivia. "Are you ready to retire for the night my love?" whispered Thorin. "I'm ready." smiled Olivia. After bidding everyone good night, Thorin and Olivia leave the room, and made their way to the chamber.  After entering their bedroom, Thorin closed the door behind them, and he quickly undressed. He walked up behind Olivia, wrapping his arms around Olivia pressing his broad chest against her back. Thorin began to kiss the back of neck, humming softly as he done so. "Thorin, you are turning me on." purred Olivia. "That's precisely what I'm doing!" grinned Thorin. Thorin picked up Olivia and lay her gently on the bed, as he climbed on top of her.

Thorin slowly moved up and down slowly on Olivia, as he gently took his large hands caressing her body, as he passionately kissed her, kissing her like he hadn't kissed her in ages. And it felt wonderful for Olivia. She missed his caresses, the touch of his beard tickling her face, and the warmth of his body on her.Once their bodies tired out, Thorin rolled over to the side, as he continued holding Olivia in his arms. "You have made me the happiest dwarf in Middle Earth, Liv. I am so glad we met." said Thorin. "Me too. My life wouldn't be complete without you." said Olivia. "Just think, tomorrow, I'll become King. And after our wedding, you'll become my wife and Queen." whispered Thorin. "Oh, how I love it when you talk like that!" said Olivia, laying her head on Thorin's chest.

The next morning, everyone had been busy preparing for the Coronation of the King.  Poor Balin kept tripping over himself as he rushed to help prepare for the event. Olivia couldn't help but chuckle at the old dwarf. He was so exciting that he is beside himself.   Olivia observed the other dwarves, as she, Elsie and Dis hung out in the Great Hall until the time. Olivia constantly spoke about Thorin's excitement. Even Dis joined in on the conversation. "In fact, this morning as I was getting ready to launder Fili and Kili's formal clothing, I saw my brother walking down the corridor singing! Singing merrily! I haven't heard him sing such happy songs in years!" said Dis. Olivia laughed. "Dis, you heard him sing last night, although they were singing somber songs." said Olivia. "But when he sang, he sang with such life in his voice, something I haven't seen since we are children." said Dis. Olivia laughed.
