Again, it has been a while since I reviewed and I am sorry for that. RL is hectic. I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed the way this turned out. I very much enjoyed all the detail and exploration of feelings and environment and elf/mortal differences that you built into this story. The romantic tension was great and the details made it a great story. I especially enjoyed Legolas's explanation to Cella of her importance in bringing joy to Thranduil and therefore the entire kingdom. I feel this must probably be coming to an end and I am sorry to see that. I have enjoyed it thoroughly. Great job.

I loved chapter 41. It was very romantic...very sensual. The descriptions of the intimacy between Thranduil and Cella were outstanding. You've really captured the love between these two superbly.

Chapter 42 was great, as well. I really enjoyed the part when Legolas told Cella about Thranduil's past emotional state, and how she brings his father joy. The fact that Legolas approves of Cella definitely shows how highly the other elves probably think of her.

I'm very happy that Uncle Dwain and Milda are there! I know Cella was anxious about her uncle's reaction to her new relationship with Thranduil; but I'm sure that she's happy to finally have her family and her friends with her now. It can't be easy being the only human among elves.

Great job, Mary! I can't wait to find out how everyone reacts to Cella's relationship with Thranduil...this should be interesting. Very Happy smiley face

Another excellent chapter! This development with Milda and her uncle is certainly interesting and unexpected. I am very curious what happened to Willem.

You write so beautifully. I like how having him standing near to her steadied her nerves. When Thandruil left the room I also felt bereft. I could feel an emptiness. You have definitely gotten in my head with this one. I hope Thandruil will come to her. Interesting comment Milda made about Legolas being sweet on her.

Mary!!!!
Her uncle and Milda thinking Legolas is sweet on her is so cute. I wonder
what they will think when the truth is revealed. I thought for sure she
would blurt it out. I would have.

I'm so glad he came to her room.....and the way he said he would not be
staying there. *thud* I just knew there were hidden passages in the palace
*squeeel*

I like seeing Thandruil's vulnerability where she is concerned. I can
picture perfectly the way he glows. He is so strong, protective,
sexy.........perfect!

Big time author kudos!!

I love Milda and Uncle Dwain. They are such lively and endearing characters. Their relationships with Cella really shows the deep caring between them.

I’m anxious to find out what’s going on between Milda and Uncle Dwain…seems like something serious may be happening.

Milda’s insistence that Legolas was smitten with Cella was great. I can picture Cella blushing, and trying hard not to blurt out the truth. She’s so sweet. I don’t know how she has been able to hold her tongue for even this long. Laughing smiley face

Thranduil’s arrival at her chamber was a surprise. And what happened after he arrived was even more of a surprise. Who knew that the palace, itself, held secrets?

I’m very interested in finding out why Cella is afraid of fire, and why she’s nervous about disclosing why she’s afraid of it. Very interesting.

Fantastic chapter, Mary! I can’t wait to read more…this Milda and Uncle Dwain thing really has me wondering exactly what’s going on. Update soon. Very Happy smiley face

the section in which cella spoke of her parents and the fire was so moving......and so very sad. Bawl smiley face

Aww, poor Cella Sad smiley face

What a terrible thing to have happen to her at such a young age. Poor girl. And to think that she believes that what happened was her fault...that is so sad Sad smiley face

I'm glad that she's finally told someone what happened.

Lovely chapter, Mary
