She was an accident. That's what she really was. Born a royal. Raised a commoner. An insignificant girl, born to have children and make her future husband happy. Never would she imagine that her father was a cast out king and her mother the daughter of a lord. Never would she imagine that she could be raised to be so much more; a warrior, a princess, or whatever she wanted to be. Never had she been told this as a child because she had been just that, a child. She would never have a perfect childhood and never would she be able to have that special bond with her parents. And all because she was a mistake. All because she was the product of a forsaken romance. All because she was forbidden.

Ever wonder why Lord Denethor, Steward of Gondor, loved one son but hated the other? It was because of the one who stood between the two brothers, their sister Taranor. Taranor never really belonged in Gondor, it wasn't the place for her. She was a free spirit who wanted to travel the whole of Middle Earth, even deep into Mordor. But as a woman and the daughter of the Steward she was never allowed to venture beyond the gates of Minas Tirith until one day fate decided to have mercy on her. DISCLAIMER: I do not own any characters from the books by J.R.R. Tolkien or any storylines from the books or movies.

Eadrid was the daughter of Kings, and a Captain among men. Though she remained fierce, she was determined to be the leader that desired to serve her people and to help them, not stand over them. As sickness spread throughout the lands of Rohan, she was banished by order of the King, and was forced to start a new life in Middle Earth. After years of losing the respect for herself she once had as Captain of the Rohirrim, she found herself amongst a fellowship with a very long journey ahead of them. Until her future was to be revealed to her, she told herself that she deserved nothing good that came her way. But as her destiny was paved in front of her, she was forced to become the once great leader she had been, and fulfill her duty to the free men of Middle Earth.

**Now featured on Wattpad's Official Lord of the Rings Fanfic Reading List!** Lily Petrova is not like most Hobbits: she craves adventure instead of despising it. She shared a common interest with a certain Bilbo Baggins back when they were teenagers, but time changed Bilbo, and they grew apart. While his hunger for adventure disappeared with time, Lily's never faded. Lily's life changes one fateful night, but is it for the better or worse? Could this adventure she'd always dreamed of going on prove to be too much for her in the end, or will she stick it out?

Our story follows a Hobbit by the name of Marlena Rowen-Baggins. A resident of the Shire, at the age of six she was taken in by Bilbo Baggins after he had found her wandering alone far away from her home. At age eight, she was officially adopted by him. Ever since, she has become close to some of the Baggins family, particularly her adoptive father, Bilbo, and adoptive brother, Frodo Baggins, who is also Bilbo's nephew. Marlena's story begins on the day of Bilbo's 111th birthday, a day that will change her life, and Frodo's, forever. It will bring forth an adventure for the two that is bigger than either of them could have ever imagined. [ cover by @WeirdlySupernatural ]

First chapter published December 14th 2021. *I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS* (except Rebekah) *whole story edited Feb 2022* Rebekah's life had always been an adventure. She had traveled all over the world and met some new friends along the way. When she thought she finally had settled down and put her fighting days behind her she was approached by an old friend who asked her if she wanted to go on a quest. Rebekah didn't hesitate and said yes to one last adventure. This one however would be different than any other adventure she'd been on. This time she found kinship, partnership, loyalty and love.

Enmira is a half elven skin changer, that went through a lot in her early years. After an encounter with Gandalf, she sees the company that she needs to protect and the, King Under the Mountain, makes her skin crawl. The journey has barely begun and she's already having strange feelings for the King. She doesn't understand what this pull means and Thorin seems to be in the same boat. But unlike her, he actually knows what's going on and is doing his best to ignore it. But a skin changer only has one mate in their lifetime and it's rare for a Dwarf to find their One. So when that true love is found, it's dangerous to avoid it.

The road was never meant for her. Titania Baggins is a healer, not a hero - but when Bilbo joins Thorin Oakenshield's quest, she refuses to let him face the dangers of Middle-earth alone. Armed with knowledge from Rivendell and a blade gifted by Elven princes, she walks beside the Company into a journey that will test loyalty, pride, and trust. Especially between herself... ...and the king who never meant to fall first.

Elanor is the youngest sister of Galadriel, who happens to be a skin-changer. She was asked by Gandalf personally to help with a dragon and dwarf problem. It seems that it seems like a bad mix: dragons, dwarves, and elves. Want to see how this plays out? But can she? What if the leader learns that her true identity is made of two things that he hates beyond all else? Can he see past the hatred of what she is and see her love for him and see that not all elves are grace-like at all times or stuck-up? Can she become one of them, or will they cast her out when they're finished? Will any of the dwarves see past her ears and let her help? What will happen when they finally reach the Mountain?
