Wonderful story, but alas, this chapter was rightous boring. Best greetings to Rosamund Pilcher. Sorry.

(This is really very good story).

Author Reply: Hello Irene,
this is my very first story and I know it could do with a rewrite to tighten the pace and fix a few other things. But I'm afraid my writing time is so limited that I prefer to write new stuff rather than revise the old.

It's good to hear you enjoyed the rest of it though!

Loved the saucy lines of Lothy here--though they seemed to test Eomer's self-control very sorely. Looking forward to reading how they'll get rid of her other suitors.

Author Reply: This is only the beginning of having his self-control tested ;-) Although the abduction/elopment scenario would have been nice to write, too.

The two last chapters... they left me speechless! I'm so intrigued about Eomer's plans...
More please!

you'll find out about Eomer's plans next week and see what happens when Lothiriel is 'just herself'...

Greetings, Lia

It's great seeing Lothiriel being efficient and knowledgeable about her role in running a Prince's household. Her father might think she's mainly ornamental - but that just goes to show how little he has thought about the ins and outs of administering big estates. It won't do Eomer any harm to see that side of her, either.

But they'll have to last a long time on a couple of discreet ... meetings. And abduction - even if it's more of an elopement - won't go down too well in Gondor. They might just have to come up with a cunning plan.

Author Reply: Hello Bodkin,
I agree completely with you. Maybe Imrahil won't realize until Lothiriel is gone how little 'ornamental' she is - although she is ornamental ;-)
As for the abduction, I think they will just have to be patient and maybe come up with a 'cunning plan' to convince her father. That last sounds like Blackadder - do you know that series or is just coincidence?

Anyway, I think you'll like the next chapter. I was grinning evily the whole time I wrote it.

This is going to be a fascinating engagement--I think the two of them are going to leave a good many Gondorian heads spinning! Not least those of Lothiriel's father and brothers! *grin*

Author Reply: Hello Dreamflower,
it should prove to be interesting, yes. I think there will be food for gossip at the court of Dol Amroth for many weeks to come, even after Eomer has left. Elphir won't be pleased!

I am glad Eomer gets to see Lothiriel in her element, doing all these things she is good at. He can see that she will be a fitting Queen as well as wife and lover.

I can't wait to see what they have planned for the other suitors. :>)

Author Reply: Hello Nilmandra,
Yes, I thought it would be good to see that side of Lothiriel as well. As for the suitors, they won't know what's hit them...

Oooh, an early update! Thanks for this.I really enjoyed the banter between Eomer and Lothiriel in this chapter-they are more alike than they seem.Oh, and Lothiriel's boldness is obviously pleasing Eomer.I'm sure thet he WOULD abduct Lothiriel in the blink of an eye if he had to.Mmmm, being abducted by Eomer would be heaven! I laughed out loud when Lothiriel told him that she wouldn't be unwilling.Eomer is going to have his hands full when Lothiriel becomes his wife but I don't think he'd have it any other way!

Thanks again for the update.More, please!

Ali.

Author Reply: Hello Ali,
thanks for your quick review and I'm pleased you enjoyed the banter. I believe Eomer has found out she's not your usual Gondorian princess and Lothiriel has realized she can be honest about her feelings with him.
You'll see in the next chapter what happens when those two make up their minds!
