What a lovely chapter! It took me forever to read this story. But so far, it has been very nice. The descriptions are vivid and I can always somehow feel how Valia would feel. LOL. so corny. Anyway, update soon cuz I can't wait to read another chapter! )

Wow. That was so beautiful! I bet...Hadrielia is going to try and take the pin. Or do something with it anwyay...it's not going to be left alone, is it?

Sounds like Valia and Legolas are growing closer...with the help of Isondil and Thranduil. I can't wait for Hadrielia's reaction to it all, when she realizes that. I mean...it's going to happen, right?

You're awesome at writing! Keep going! It's the best Legolas-romance I've ever read.

hehehe, eat that Hadrielia! O update soon! this is getting better and better with each chapter!

Another very good chapter. However, there were a few spelling errors. Dinning is spelled dining. Messaging is massaging. Other than those mispellings, it was great. I am waiting in agony for the next chapter.

Aww...I'm gonna cry again. I can't believe I didn't see this yesturday! Bad, Nessa, bad! Anyway, that was a fantastic chapter. Although, the part involving Valia returning the pin kinda confused me. I was like, "is she giving it back or what?" I think my mind was just screwing with me or something. Well, excellent, excellent job on this chapter.

::gasp:: how dare Hadrielia try to ake the pin? gr well, it fits her character, thats for sure. just plain mean! oh well, im glad that Valia is becoming bolder than before. poor Legolas. to be betrothed to that *bleepidy bleep bleep*. for shame. lol well, im really glad that you have updated! im lookin forward to the rest! byes chica!

yay they finally kissed! er ok well actually it was a measly lil peck on the cheek but hey! better than nothing :D gr that hadriela! damn her damn her damn her! i think i would've blown my top and just gone right out and kicked her ass if she had gotten that pin! anyway... UPDATE! :D

Hi there, I am sorry I did not get a chance to review the last couple of chapters, but by the look of the triple-digit review count, you've been doing all right without me! I first of all want to tell you how much I loved the scene with the elflings in the previous chapters. I adore children and you captured all that is wonderful about them in that segment of your story, it was a joy to read. Now, this chapter is great, ever since the dramatic return of Legolas when he is in her bedroom right away in the beginning I've been waiting for some of their old fondness to show through. This chapter has some very adorable scenes between the two of them, and I am so glad that he would not take the hair pin back. I can imagine how incredibly awkward it must be for Valia to be around a betrothed Legolas. Trying not to cross the line, having to be careful what you say and do and who sees you...it can drive a person crazy. But, they're just so in love with each other, it's just so wrong that they can't be together...wow, this story just gets to me sometimes. I almost cried when they were talking about Gimli too! Oh, and when I read the title to the random book Valia picked up, I laughed out loud! Great stuff! Thranduil's a funny guy, I like how you've portrayed him. I'm just on edge wondering when Legolas is finally going to ditch Hadrielia...or if he will at all! Such suspense! Good work, as always!

I loved it! The more chapters you put up the better the story becomes. don't stop writing.

Another nicely written chapter, as usual. But am I the only one who is starting to think that this story is dragging? So far I have read 7 chapters (not to mention many chapters from the first story) of Valia saying "I hate Legolas, blah blah blah." The reason I loved the first story so was because of the love between Legolas and Valia. The story started to worsen as Valia started to 'hate' Legolas, and Legolas began to spend all his time trying to whoo her. Something needs to happen. I miss the interaction between the two, and especially the interaction between those two and Isondil and his wife. It was so cute. You should add Silia (?) to the story more. Anyway, this is all just a suggestion. Write your story how you see fit...I personally am tired of reading chapter after chapter of Valia hating Legolas. blah blah blah.

Oh my God! I loved this chapter! It may very well be my fav chapter so far! Well done Silma! You took your time updating, but I found it worthy to wait! You are trully blessed with a gift! Really! I loved everything: the feel of it, the colors, the words, the subtle warmth...everything! You made me laugh with Thranduil and you made me almost cry with the tenderness between Legolas and Valia. I really hope you're one of those girls thatlike happy endings 'cause they so deserve a happy one! Oh, and Hadrielia...will someone PLEASE gag her and tie her up? That elf is unsufferable! LOL

Keep up the good work!

This tension is killing me. You must update soon! I love this story. Keep up the good work :D

Beautiful chapter! What a glorious exchange between Legolas and Valia. Your detail of the hallway and gardens was also marvellous.

Well done. Lily

wow alot of emotions in that chapter. Wow when I read about the book I was so embarrased FOR her I couldn't continur reading for a whol minuet, Tharanduil is evil, I tell you. EVIL! But funny in his own way, this was a great chapter. I wonder why IS Valia being so open now, maybe in the next chapter..

I am greatly enjoying these series of stories )

I do so hope there is a happy ending for Valia and Legolas in the future

it is to bad they can not just adopt if she is barren ah royalty something I doubt I will ever understand

anyway it is my hope to see an new chapter sooner rather than later though I am sure it will be well worth what ever wait is necessary )
