"What is this feeling?" Thranduil softly whispers, our lips inches apart from touching.

"Butterflies." 

-

Elise, as a young child was discovered on the side of the road, alone, by Gandalf the Grey. He noticed that there was something very different about this young elf - her eyes. One was a piercing blue while the other a deep green. 

Elise is then placed into the care and protection of Lord Elrond, but not without a little cover magic for her eyes.

When arrangements are made for her to stay in the Woodland realm.
With her new sense of freedom she sets herself on a task - to discover herself, and the world around her, but what if a certain blonde haired King becomes a distraction.

Is all what it really seems? Or does something magical come to light?


"What you're feeling can either create you, or destroy you."

Elarinya is forced to let go of the past, her feelings, and her wishes as she returns. But her inner turmoil brings forth old feelings in them both as she slowly realizes, perhaps she should have moved on as well and left for the undying lands. Was she too naïve in returning? Join Elarinya as she begins to understand what it is she has set in motion by returning to Greenwood. Follow her story of love, hate, and the most dangerous thing of all-jealousy.

Moonbeam by TigereyesF

Thranduil gives a place of refuge to an elleth and her young child, saving their lives and giving them protection. Centuries later, he is ambushed in the forest by a furious female, who challenges him in a fight to the death. Rage, tears, and truths emerge, and he is stunned at the elleth's identity. Could it possibly be the same child who had run riot in his palace hundreds of years before, creating mischief at every turn and leading a young Legolas down a path of anarchy? And if it was, why was it her mission to take his life? As both struggle to come to terms with what they know, feelings change, and the King finds himself falling in love with the inferno of angry fire who destroys the defences around his heart. Can they find a way to overcome the past and be together? Or will the lies and betrayal keep them as enemies until time runs out? A shocking twist ruins a peaceful lull between the two, creating even more heartache, as events crash out of control.

Shadow of Mirkwood by elven-archer

In the heart of the cursed Mirkwood Forest, Legolas, the prince of the woodland realm, is haunted by an inexplicable feeling of being watched. Unbeknownst to him, his every move is shadowed by a female elf (I am not going to reveal the name), the enigmatic and fiercely skilled general of the Mirkwood army, who has vowed to protect her prince and her king - Thranduil. Legolas, however, remains unaware of her presence. Every midnight, she cloaks herself in secrecy and ventures out to meet him, masking her identity. Under the cover of darkness, she observes him carefully. Amidst the looming threats of darkness creeping into Mirkwood, the unlikely bond between Legolas and the general becomes both a source of strength and vulnerability. When news of the One Ring's existence and its devastating power reaches the woodland realm, Legolas, along with a fellowship of brave companions, embarks on a perilous quest to destroy the Ring and save Middle-earth from the clutches of darkness. In a tale of hidden identities, midnight meetings, and unspoken emotions, "Shadows of Mirkwood" explores the profound connection between two souls destined to protect their realm and, in the process, find solace in each other's arms. As they face the ultimate quest to destroy the Ring, their love becomes a beacon of hope in the face of overwhelming darkness. Will their love withstand the challenges of secrecy, duty, and the temptation of the Ring, or will the shadows that brought them together also tear them apart?

The Mermaid's Forgotten Love (Legolas love story) by kyxgarra21

Artemis that's my name. A Long long time ago a young elf prince gave it to me. He was the crowned elf prince of Mirkwood. His name Legolas he was a very kind young elf. I had saved him from drowning when he was only 10, well looked 10 anyway. Since he is an elf they age very slowly just like my kind. After I saved his life that day he wouldd often come see me. Each day just to learn about me and my race. Since we'll, im a mermaid. I'm the last of my kind. He and I grew up together and my feelings for him became one of love over time. I loved him but it was dangerous for me because mermaids can only love once. If my heart breaks it will turn to stone and stop beating, it will grow old and cold and it will stop and never start again. My body will live but it would be a shell of a mer. One day Legolas had come to see me by the river, he told me about a young she-elf named Tauriel. He told me about how he had feelings for her and how amazing she was. My heart hurt at those words. He had fallen for another. That day I told him I loved him and that I would never forget him. Then I grabbed his face with my hands and kissed him. When I kissed him a tear slid down my cheek, when it hit the ground it turned into a white pearl. I kissed him because I loved him but when I kissed him I took away every memory of him and myself. I let go and put my necklace around his neck. It was a green stone with markings on it. We called it our hearts we would give it to the ones we love. I looked at him one last time before jumping back into the water leaving the one I love.

Hidden away in an ancient tower, Y/N has lived her entire life in solitude, her only companion a sassy little gecko named Lómin. Bound by duty and the whispered warnings of her guardian, she has never stepped beyond the walls that confine her. Her gift, the power to heal wounds and reverse decay, flows through the long silver strands of her hair, but it comes at a cost. To use it, she must recite an ancient Elven prayer, a song of starlight that could make her either a savior or a target. The outside world is dangerous. She has been told this all her life. Kings would seek to control her. Thieves would try to take what is not theirs. And once her secret is known, she will never be free. But when fate sends an unexpected visitor to her tower, Y/N must make a choice: remain a prisoner of safety or risk everything for a chance at freedom...perhaps, even love. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ⚠️ Warnings ⚠️ • Violent Scenes • Graphic Descriptions • Sexual Themes • Age Gap • Strong/ Offensive Language ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Status: Ongoing • Started: 07/03/25 • Finished: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Disclaimer • I don't own TLOTR/The Hobbit or its characters. • I do own Y/n + some extra added characters
