"So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring, in which case you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought."
Legolas sighed and returned the squeeze. from then on he remained silent. A battle within was raging. Legolas had to think of a way to get het to trust him, and befriend at least. Asking her to love him was absurd. She was still bent on the fact that he had 'bought' her. Once they reached his room he closed the door and walked into the room and slammed his fist into the wall, venting fustration and utter anger. It bled, but he did not care. clentching hands, he looked toher, already calming. "Help yourself to anything." And he walked into the bathing champers and say down on the seat, tempted to take a hot bath.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Cosette wasn't sure what to make of Legolas, nor his behavior. He had the ability to go from one extreme to the next. She wondered if that was truely him. Nice one moment, fuming the next. Or perhaps it depended on whether or not he was provoked.
She sat quietly on the bed, careful not to make any noise and not wanting to set off Legolas. She didn't want to see him mad. Cosette held her hands and rubbed them together nervously.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
The sound of running water echoed from teh bathroom door, and it was cracked slightly. Legolas stripped himself of his garbs and slighted. He could NOT let Orophin get to him. He would not get into it with him. Once the tub was filled with hot water, he slowly stepped in and submerged under the water, wetting his hair. Once he had surfaced, he leaned back against the side of the tub and closed his eyes, relaxing. Already he felt better.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Cosette sat on the bed still, even as she heard his tub stop. She didn't feel comfortable enough here, to get comfortable. This still had the capability of being a wicked place for her. One wrong move could get her beaten again, by anyone. She shifted on the bed occasionally as she sat there; her head looking down as dark strands of hair bordered her thin face.
She wondered if it would be terribly bad to die. Wouldn't it be happiness? Nothing could harm her then, if she was in a warm place.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
After about twenty minutes or so in the tub, Legolas got out and wrapped a towel around his slender waist. So much pressure was released, or if one said that it had faded somewhat they would have been nearer the mark. Pulling his Breeches on, the elf shrugged on his robe and let the water out. Blue eyes stared at the waters, as if in a trance. The ripples moved fluiently and as one. Escaping by working together as one. That was Legolas and Cosette had to do. They had to get along and trust the other for her to be able to leave.
Walking out into the bed chambers, not bothering to tie the robe, Legolas walked over to her and sayby her side. "Cosette...I was thinking..to be free of this, we must work as one. We have to work together, and you have to trust me. I can help you. I want to help you. Please let me by your friend...I will not betray you...I swear by my blood." Tentively, the prince took her hand and placed a kiss on the back of it.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Cosette watched as Legolas kissed her hand. He seemed to genuinely want to help her. But she was reluctant, and had the bruises and scars to prove why. She slowly pulled her hand away from his own. Thank you m'lord. As you wish. She replied softly. She was not going to go against the will of the one who baught her. She did not want more hurt. But at least his goal was freedom. Maybe it would not be so bad. Legolas would not have any nobles to encourage and influence his behavior towards her.
But before either could get another word in, there was a knock on the door, followed by it being opened by a noble. He tossed a girl onto the floor of Legolas' room. She was younger than Cosette. That girl has given me enough trouble!... He growled. Not to mention, she doesn't know how to do it!... He said. He looked to Cosette. Trade me, prince. Yours looks old enough to know her place.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Legolas looked to the girl with pity. He wanted to help her, be he could not right now. He could not trade Cosette to anyone. He was protective of her. "If she gives you trouble, then you may give her to me, but I will not trade you anything. Now he swift in your choosing, sir." He said flatly. SHe was young, and her spirit was unbroken yet. Cosette ahd already broke. That was why she was so untrusting of him. Legolas watched the man.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~Give you my girl for free?....Your out of your mind boy!...At least let me borrow yours for a night. I'll keep my welp and break her myself, but that will take time. Let me borrow yours and I will pay you. He said, taking out a pouch of coin. He looked to Cosette.
Come along girl and do as your told. He said to Cosette. She looked to him sadly and stood.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Legolas stood and his brows furrowed. "Get out of my room and leave those within be. Get out now." And his tone was cold as ice. Legolas bent down to help the other girl up gently, and walked her over to the man. "If you are unpleased with her, then free her. Now get out of my room. I will not let you 'borrow' her nor will I accept money." Legolas sneered as his eyes blazed with an annoyance by this man. How dare he try to trade her as if she were some property. Legolas knew what he would do to Cosette. He would have his way and treat her worse. Legolas did not wnat her hurt anymore.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
The other smaller girl looked to Legolas pleadingly as she was handed back over to the lord. Her eyes welled as fear rose within them again. She looked to Cosette pleadingly, but Cosette simply looked down and away. Her heart broke. She knew how the girl felt. The lord grabbed her arm roughly and flung her back into the hallway. Fine!...But know princeling, that you cannot keep the girl to talk with her. They are sold for a purpose, and unless you don't use her for that purpose, I shall inform your father and he'll take her away. He said angrily.
Turning, he grabbed the young girl by the arm again and dragged her down the hall to his room as she cried. Cosette closed her eyes and covered her ears, already beginning to cry herself at such a thought and the sound of the poor girl.
Legolas closed the door and leaned against it. He felt so bad for the girl, and he wanted to help her, but he could not. Legolas looked to her sadly And sighed. If he did not use Cosette, she would be taken from him, and then she would be beat and sold again. Walking to her slowly, Legolas lifted her chin up and into her eyes, wiping the tears of hers away with his thumb. "Why I ask of you...is for your sake and not my own. I do not want to see you beaten and sold again..Would you let me make love to you...for the sake of not being sold again?" He asked cupping her face in his hands.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Cosette nodded slowly. She guessed that making love to Legolas would be better than forced into something painful by another. She'd never done it before, so either way, it would be painful. Wiping her tears away and trying to be brave, she walked over and laid on her back on the bed. She faced the ceiling, breathing in deeply and trying to calm herself.
She'd never been so afraid nor felt so alone. She wondered if the lovemaking had made that other girl so afraid. Was it that bad?...Or did it depend on your master? Sighing, she opened her large brown glossed eyes and awaited him.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Legolas looked to her sadly somewhat. He wsa about to make love to the woman he admired, but she did not feel the same. He would be taking her, no matter what right now. SHe was forcing herself to will him to. For that he felt guilt. Walking over to her and climbing on the bed, He supported his upper body with his strong arms as he straddled her waist. Legolas leaned down and kissed her neck slowly and affectionately, sucking on the sweet skin. His long hand traveled to the clasps upon her dress as nimle digits undid them and slid the fabric back and off of her.
The prince pulled back to look into her eyes. "I'll be gentle...this is my first...I do not want to cause you pain..." And sitting up again, he slid the rode off and began to undo the cords of his breeches.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Cosette still cried as she looked up at him as he began to undress. She was so frightened, she thought she may pass out. But she didn't. She had to stay focused and at least somewhat calm. He was beautiful, no doubt about that, but Cosette was too afraid to embrace and enjoy it. As he pushed down his breeches, his member was exposed. It was so large, she wondered how something like that could ever fit within her.
She squirmed a bit beneath him in nervous and fearful anticipation. Her dress was pushed off of her shoulders and upper body, and he began to hike up to the bottom.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Legolas could see the fear in her eyes, and his heart shattered at that. Taking a deep breath he parted her legs and settled himself between them. His lips continued to lavish her neck with affection, trying to sooth her. He himself was nervous, and was shaking. Slowly he grinded his hips into hers as he moaned against her skin upon feeling bare parts exposed. Legolas was hope until he married, but now that would never be the case. Slowly, Legolas entered her as he cried out himself in pain and pleasure in one. She was tight against him, and it did hurt. Anymore and he could release sooner than he liked.
"Cosette....please relax..you're too tight..." He said taking a sharp breath.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Cosette tried to do as he asked, as she reared her head back in pain. There was something there though, a strike of sensation that normally came with sex. The pleasure. She cried out, in fear, pleasure and pain all at once. She closed her eyes and tried to accomidate him within her.
Her legs tensed as they bordered him somewhat against his waist and sides. His skin was incredibly smooth. Had this not been painful, Cosette may have endured and enjoyed it a bit more. As he began to thrust, her whole slender form moved with him and beneath him. Her mouth was open and her eyes were shut tightly, but no sound came out save the occasional cut off sound.
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Legolas took deep breaths as he moved within her, bring her to climax as well as him. His heart raced, and already sweat began to gather upon his brow. The prince ran a hand down her chest and to her tight, pulling it up a bit to give himself more access to penitrate her deeply and give her as much pleasure as he could. LIghtly his lips would brush across the smooth skin of her neck and cheek. With eyes closed, he continued to thrust into as deeply as he could, and as painless as possible.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Slowly, Cosette reopened her eyes, which were still blurry from the tears. It was getting less painful, and more pleasureable. He was moaning as he went, grunting and panting. Almost like he was working had to please her. She finally let out a moan of her own as he stroked a senstivie part within her. One she didn't even know she had. Cosette's hands gripped the sheets tightly as he contiued to thrust and kiss her skin on occasion.
For some reason she could smell the hot passion and attraction radiating off Legolas. Did he actually like her? Did he enjoy this?
Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Legolas could feel her relaxing,and moaning a few times. Was she finally opening to him and enjoying it as much as he did? Legolas could only hope, for he would rather make love to her than any other woman in the world. Wether hse knew it or not, she could control him. A single word could melt him or stiften him. Legolas continued to pump into her until he felt her reach climax right as he did. They climaxed together and he panted hard and trembled after release. Slowly he pressed his body to hers as he laid there, too weak to most, and too weary.

Re: ~ The Punishments ~
Slowly, Cosette eased him off her, catching her breath and rolled onto her side; huddling into a ball. Her fingers drifted idly over her lower stomach and womb. What had happened? He'd been inside her -- he'd inflicted the pain and pleasure she experienced a few moments ago. She didn't know whether to feel good, or horribly violated and wrong.
Cosette hugged herself as she lay there, not knowing what to think. Her first time. It had not been with a love, it had not been after marriage. Nothing had worked out like she was told it would. More than ever she felt like a slave and a thing. Legolas would have to take her on occasion now, to prove she was 'in use'.
