    Summary

    Second Age One Shot… when the King of Darkness takes the Lady of Light to be the Queen of his Shadowlands.

    ***
    He was the Dark Lord now. And this Lady of Light would come to dwell in his halls.

    Oft, when she would fall under the pull of sleep, he sent his shadows to soften her eyes and murmur words of love in her pointed ear. Words saturated with desire, verses that praised her beauty more than the Lamps that once lit distant shores. He sent his yearning for her on their whispering, tickling breath, seeping into her dreams until she smiled as she awoke.

    But words and whispers, pining and watching would no longer satisfy him.

    Lord Sauron would take her for his own. To make her a queen, stronger than the foundations of earth in which he dwelt.

    That day, in place of his ravens, he came to hide in the shades of the grove himself, his cloak black as night to cover his pale flesh. Lest her eyes should see him. Her voice drifted on the breeze, humming melody after melody as she sat herself in her usual spot by the river, nestled between the roots of her favorite willow. Then he emerged.
