  —𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐖𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐓 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘'𝐒 place as one of the country men sneaked inside the castle, accidentally earsdropped between the conversation of Ailwin Luvyre, son of Halavadar Dorlana and his only child Y/N Luvrye. Related to the name of their residence, the rulers of the Lost City was once a lost elves during the Third Ages battle of Doriath. Unlike the people who lived in the city, they're immortal elves. The king of this City decided to avoid ruling the same breed just like him and his daughter, however, Ailwin still suffer under the threat of the Elven King of Woodland Realm. Lady Gargadial warned every elves in Middle - Earth that the King of evil gathered strength, ready to return anytime to destroy every Men in this world.

Ailwin lost thousands of armies from the Third Age, risked the lives of Men. He avoid every war happened in the previous years, thinking it would be safer for his people to be quiet and unknown. The King of the Lost City was frightened, the evil didn't choose anyone to kill, whether you're powerful, well - known and dangerous, they will hunt each men in this world to aim their victory.

"Y/N, think about our people," Said Ailwin,"unarmed, unknowledgable, unexperienced. They'll bring us for losing this battle, this deadly war!"

Hearing the furious voice, Y/N flinch in every word her father says. These previous days, they didn't do anything but to argue with this deal with the Elven King of Woodland Realm.

"So you would sacrifice your own daughter, pay to a nonsense favor before offering their help?" Y/N stated in disbelief.

Ailwin sighed, quietly sat down on his cold throne made out from silver."The Elven King of Woodland Realm will never fail us, Y/N."

"If that Elven King really wants to help us, why would he want me to be the answer of his favor?" The younger Luvyre huffed, walking back and forth to the unoccupied space.

"Thranduil's wife is lifeless, Y/N."

Y/N looked to her father with her brows curled up."Nonsense, father! And how about his son? Legolas? Do you think he would agree to this? Nevertheless, this is not how you ask a woman in marriage!"

Without giving her father a chance to speak, Y/N stormed out from the King's room. Her mind is full of thoughts, ruining the sanity within her soul. Y/N cannot believe that her father would give his daughter to a man, rather a King she doesn't even met. Thranduil came to the Lost City couple of months ago to offer a help. With a favor, Thranduil will only give his behalf when Y/N agreed to their marriage. The Elven King knew how the beauty of Y/N was made by Gods, blessing his sight of the young woman who trains herself more in using a sword. Unfortunately, Ailwin completely disregard the Elven King's favor, leaving the Lost City hopeless as they disappeared the castle. Every now and then, Ailwin could not take off the favor that the Elven King asked him. Marriage is one of the unpopular priorities of Elves nowadays, but for a woman who believes in love and faith, she wouldn't let the Elven King owned her without giving her some affection.

For some reasons, Y/N found guilty on turning back to her father's decision. It wouldn't be such a big deal to others if they found out it was only a fixed marriage, came from a contact to save the Lost City's people. Woodland Realm was one of the powerful armies in the Middle Earth, knowing how important to her father on having the triumph for this upcoming battle.

In the past few hours, the young Luvrye sat down to the garden that people made it for her. The she elf wanders around the area if she's stressed, drowning from sorrows and undecided. There's something about this place that calms the storm within her.

Y/N heard some light steps from behind, knowing it is her father who joined her company.

Ailwin quietly approach his daughter, sitting beside her on the wooden bench as they shared a loud sigh.

"Y/N, my child, I didn't mean to force you further in this favor. Forgive me in my foolishness." Ailwin said, breaking the silence between them.

All of a sudden, Y/N terribly sad for her father asking for forgiveness. The woman with the emerald eyes lowered her sight to her father who's starring blankly at the small fountain centered in the garden. The war is close, enemie's strength grew each day and there's nothing she can do about it. The Lost City's hope was also lost, leaving her with no choice but to agreed with the favor from the Elven King.

Ailwin's reaction is unknown, overwhelmed to hear his daughter's sudden change of decision.

"Are you sure you wanted to do this, Y/N? I'm no longer forcing you to-"

"Father, it is alright." Y/N cutted her father, gently placed her cold palm at the top of Ailwin's hand.

With a smile, she assured her father not to disappoint him once Y/N's time has arrived to face a heartless king of Woodland Realm.

A light striking in the white curtains to wake the sleepless woman on her bed. Y/N couldn't find a reason to relax her soul last night, knowing that she will meet Thranduil later this afternoon. Hours had passed, Y/N decided to leave with Yuri, her white horse. Ailwin couldn't be with her in this journey because his duties were loaded. The ride was quiet, leaving Y/N alone with her thoughts playing on her mind again. She doesn't have the change to examine the features of King Thranduil, does his eyes were green as hers? Does his hair was long just like his father? Y/N brushed off her thoughts to stopped at the entrance of the forest. Regaining the courage, she entered a dangerous path without a sign of fear.

It took her for a while to reach at the Woodland Realm, the huge door was guarded by Elves that let her and Yuri to have an access inside the castle. Y/N scanned the whole place with amusement seen in her eyes. It's like you're breathing under the giant roots of the tree. Different thin paths can be shown throughout the castle, seeing elves just like her presence walk pass by.

A man with an armed suit approach her direction as he bowed down, giving him a warm smile.

"Princess Y/N, daughter of Ailwin Luvrye. The King was already waiting for your presence." With a simple nod, she followed the elf armed with a bow. It took them for a while until they reach the throne of Elven King. Y/N squinted her eyes on the throne made by carven woods, few elves were guraded the one and only king of Woodland Realm, king Thranduil.

At last, the two finally met. As they walk up in the little staircase, Y/N could not take her eyes off of the beauty of the king. His loosened white hair reached above his waist, a shimmering blue coloured eyes, his cheekbones and jaw that were perfectly shaped and a crown that holds the authority itself. In her life, she wouldn't have the chance to meet such a handsome creature just like her. But the idea of heartless man the king is, Y/N took off the thoughts as she saw Thranduil was now facing her.

"King Thranduil, a pleasure to meet you." Y/N bow down instantly, only to locked eyes with the king as she lift up.

"Princess Y/N, daughter of Ailwin Luvrye, the pleasure is all mine." Thranduil gently grab the woman's hand, lift it up to feel the softness of the king's lips.

He kissed her hand without breaking the eye contact."To my concern, where is your father? I'm expecting his presence along with you."

"My father wouldn't be able to meet you tonight, my king. Perhaps, I'm the one you wanted to meet, am I not?"

A grin curved in his lips, walk slowly around the woman's place."Do you have any idea why you're here, my lady?"

"Yes I do."

"Well then, your presence today was the only answer I've been waiting for." Thranduil said, stopping in front of the woman.

They are closed to each other as if they could feel their heavy breathes."Do I need to explain the agreement further, Y/N?"

"Please, my king, let me know."

Thranduil smirks, only finding himself strucked at the stunning features of the woman he desires the most.

"Princess Y/N, you'll be mine for tonight."
