The Beginning

CHAPTER 5

I told them what happened but they didn't say any word of it. We heard Elladan calling our names saying the dinner was ready. I was afraid very inside of me because I'd see in the same table Legolas and Dalius. Oh, Dalius. For a moment I have forgotten about him. I blame Legolas'blue eyes; so captivating.

I was wearing Arwen's purple dress. According to her, I would look like a princess. I don't believe any word she says. Well, nobody does. I would love to see her in my shoes, marrying an elf she doesn't know.

We arrived at the table and Legolas was the only one who pulled my chair and helped me in. My cheecks turned to red. Dalius had a nasty face. I was surprised Aragorn was there, even my brothers and my grandparents.

Galadriel was looking at me, like if you are seeing an angel, she coulnd't hide that beautiful smile she has, like my mother.

Dalius started talking, of course, he has to be the first in everything.

"Thanks for saving my fiancée" I wanted to hide. Legolas looked at me.

"Well, Arya doesn't need a Prince to protect her" he said. "She's good at fighting" he ended that sentence with a smile.

"I'd never let her have a sword" Dalius said. "And..." he said looking at him up and down. "Who do you think you are?"  He looked upset seeing Legolas there.

Galadriel stood up and said: "He is Legolas. Son of Thranduil. He is the Prince of Mirkwood"

Now I wanted to die. All this time... I was talking to my saviour? I just couldn't believe it. I was so confused. Now I know why I dreamt with those blue eyes. It was a memory from my past!

I wanted some anwers.

I was going to my bedroom then suddenly I saw Legolas in his balcony in his bedroom. I was confused, happy and mad. I came in without calling.

"Why you didn't tell me who you were?!" I said touching his back and turning him around.

"In fact, my lady I told you" he said. I was more confused.

"You didn't tell me you were the Prince" I said.

"I told you what you asked. You asked my name, nothing else" he said. "And you actually lied to me. You told me you were Lúthien when you were a princess. You've should tell me" he said.

"I lied to you because I need to protect myself. I am in danger" I said while I was looking at the stars.

"I know. You father told me before the dinner. Well, he actually reminded me that. I know you past. I spent all these years with my father Thranduil looking for that evil who is trying to kill you but no success" he said like he was dissapointed.

"Will you find out who killed my mother and tries to kill me?" I said with my heart on my sleeve.

"Yes. I am here to protect you, Arya" he said. He holds my hand and  puts his lips close to mine but they didn't touch.

"What do you think you are doing?"
