When Eleneth is captured by Adar, the ruthless commander of the orcs in the Southlands, she expects her life to be forfeit. Instead, she's drawn into a dangerous alliance with an enemy whose motivations run deeper than she imagined. Tasked with healing the brutal orcs, Eleneth discovers Adar's true desire - to destroy Sauron, the Dark Lord who once corrupted him. Torn between her loyalty to her people and her growing connection to Adar, Eleneth faces impossible choices. The bond between them deepens, yet shadows of mistrust remain. With Sauron's return looming and both sides preparing for war, Eleneth must decide - Will she help Adar seek redemption and protect Middle-earth from the ultimate evil, or flee home to a fragile, temporary safety? In this high-stakes tale of moral conflict, shifting allegiances, and forbidden attraction, Eleneth and Adar must confront the darkness within themselves, and each other, before it's too late.

Adar had been captured by Halbrand and Galadriel. Unsure of what to do with him, Galadriel asks Eilith to watch over him. She knows that Eilith has the powers and means to ensure Adar does not escape.

Aeowae, princess of two kingdoms, certainly never expected to be kidnapped. Especially by an orc lord who was far more attractive than he should be. But she would not be so resigned to her fate. And would protect her people, the Fae's, Star, at any cost. Adar, Orc Lord and Father of the Orcs, never expected his prisoner to be so defiant. Or beautiful. But he had to protect his people, the Uruks, at any cost. Especially from an ancient evil. But sometimes fate, and a Star with a will of it's own, had other plans.

When Adar, Father of the Orcs, survives the betrayal of his Children thanks to Galadriel, the two start a dangerous journey exploring the power of the Elven Ring Nenya, while an unusual connection seems to bond their mind and souls. If you enjoy Tolkien-like adventures and old-fashioned romance (and you miss Adar from Rings of Power) you will 100% like my story. It starts from Adar's final scene in Episode 8 Season 2 of the series, that I changed with an unexpected turn. The main characters of this story are not mine, all the credit goes to The Rings of Power show.
