A Bed for the Night
Pairing: Thranduil x OC
Summary: An elf is forced into Mirkwood after being tracked by orcs. The king insists that she stay in Mirkwood, despite her arranged marriage.

The elf rode north, orcs at her tail. Astrel looked back, panicked by her situation. She counted at least ten warg-riders at her back, which meant there was no way she’d make it to her destination unscathed. She thought about her options, and she knew if she kept going on her current path, she would hit the Grey Mountains before she could escape them. That meant they would undoubtedly catch her, wargs were much better in that kind of terrain than horses were. She needed to find a path that would restrict the movement of wargs, as outrunning dwarves was much easier on foot. That was when she realized that her only good option was to cut through Mirkwood, and hope that the Greenwood elves would aid her in her time of need.
