archetJust attempting to get back into the swing of keeping a journal active and writing again, so of course, a drabble! Mmmm, also I've forgotten how to do a cut-tag, so will add this to my 'to do' list for later. :D

It came to Aragorn as a lover would, a hot breath against his throat, but Aragorn understood peril in the spaces between the breaths and turned aside.
A different bargain then, bent sweetly along the shell of his ear, honeyed tone foretelling vows fulfilled, a city safeguarded, a hobbit spared if only he would do this small thing but Aragorn perceived lethal lies layered in the contract and rejected all.
Finally, a small, unadorned whisper, “He will not fall, and will be yours.”
Aragorn’s whole heart listened.
And snapping the chain from around Frodo’s neck was such a little thing.
