The Deceptions of Love by alduya
Please realize that the OC in this story IS NOT going to fall in love with anyone. I know it may appear that she will depending on how you think about it, but just believe me when I say the OC is not going to fall in love with anyone and no one’s going to fall in love with her.
The voices stopped. Alaina quickly moved away from the door she had been pressing her ear to. She couldn’t afford to be caught eavesdropping.
It wasn’t the first time she had done it. Lately Governor Swann and his daughter, Elizabeth, had been talking secretly a lot more than usual. Of course even if they had only done it once Alaina would have considered it unusual, but this was at least the third time. Then first she had heard about from one of the other maids, but only a few words had been heard-blood, pointed, and valuable. The second Alaina had heard herself, but once again little could be discerned. All she had understood was “well done” and “not much longer.” This time, however, she’d comprehended the whole thing-and what she had heard worried her.
The doorknob turned and Elizabeth emerged from the room. Alaina hastily began dusting a plaque on the wall.
“Oh, Alaina…” said Elizabeth, who seemed either upset or preoccupied.
Alaina, with some difficulty, hid her newfound hatred. “Yes, miss?”
“Please go to the blacksmith’s and tell Will he is invited to dinner. I would go myself but I have to do some…things.”
“Yes miss, right away.” This was perfect. She could see Will and she didn’t even have to make up an excuse.
“Tell Abigail to finish the dusting.” When the maid didn’t move to leave, Elizabeth dismissed her with a wave and walked away.
Alaina curtsied, although she really didn’t need to since Elizabeth wasn’t looking, and hurried off to tell Abigail to do the dusting. After dropping of the supplies she bolted down the grand staircase and through the doors. She must have been quite a sight, running as if all the pirates in the world were after her, but her errand was urgent. Out of breath and heart thudding, she finally reached her destination.

A promising start. Keep going with this, it sounds like it will be terrific. Can’t wait to read more!

This is interesting, but you might want to explain how Legolas wound up in the body of a ten-year-old and how he disguised his ears at first. This is really good though, keep writing.
Wow! I really like it!
SWEET! Lego as Will as Lego… so totally kewl. and i like that idea that lego is under punishment from his dad and that he has another love etc. wonderful job!
Hey! You’re a pretty good writer! I’m not much for Legolas love fanfics but I do like your style of writing. I write too, but I just haven’t had any ideas lately…
