Bilbo was away from the Shire and Bag End running an errand that Gandalf sent him on, so he had to leave his husband, Thorin, his young cousin Frodo, and the other Dwarves for week and a half. However, when he came back, he was horrified to find that Thorin was different. He was no longer the caring and kind husband and king he fell for. Now, he was cold, angry, and almost downright heartless. He, along with the other dwarves fears the worst for their king. Has his gold sickness returned to reclaim him, or is it something else worse entirely, and best of all, can Bilbo get his loving husband back?
It started out so sweetly in Mirkwood with love and laughter. Thranduil and Legolas are still learning to love and trust each other. Though they have put most of their difficulties behind them, Legolas still struggles to recover from the abuse he suffered with Lord Katar. And whenever the question of punishment arises, he cowers in the fear of physical retribution.
And now Lord Katar is back for revenge. His wrath is terrible and his tortures cruel. The hurt Thranduil and Legolas endure during their imprisonment tear apart their souls. Who will save them? And, if they are saved, how will they recover from their experiences? Can father and son learn to trust and love each other ever or will there always be a void between them?
WARNINGS: Torture inflicted on adults and elflings.
