Second Time Around

Summary: For Brynne, Minas Tirith is the last place she wishes to be, as every corner holds bittersweet memories of the love of her life, the Captain of the White Guard, Boromir. Determined to keep her distance from him, she nonetheless cannot stop thinking about him, and those very memories torment her on ever level.

But when he asks for a second chance with her… old feelings are rekindled and passion proves too much to ignore, leaving Brynne has to decide if the pleasure they share is worth risking her heart once more.

He watched her. Brynne refused to look up and give him the satisfaction of knowing she knew he watched her, but he did. Just as he had for the last four days she’d been in Minas Tirith, buried in the subterranean archives that housed the city—and Gondor’s—history. His expression remained the same—sober and unsmiling, but she didn't think he was exactly unhappy that she was there. Then again, she had the King’s blessing and since the King outranked the Captain of the White Tower, whether or not Boromir was happy did not exactly matter. Of course, that didn't mean his gaze didn't make her uncomfortable or uneasy. Because it did. Well, it made her uncomfortable more than anything else. Not uneasy, because she didn't feel as if she was in any danger. No, she just felt that if a ceiling beam dropped onto her, he wouldn’t be all that unhappy about it.  She tried to put it from her mind as she pored over the somewhat-ragged, very dusty ledge she’d found and picked up her quill to make a note in her own journal.  Boots sounded against stone and as a shadow fell over her, a low voice broke the silence. “How much longer do you need?” She set down her pen and looked up. “I have no way of knowing that. Does my presence here trouble you? And if so, why? I need no babysitter, you know. I’m perfectly capable of asking the archivist for help, should I require it.” His eyes—those beautiful green eyes—narrowed slightly. “I’m still not entirely certainly why you’re here. And I think you know exactly why your presence here would trouble me.”

And here is the fic—The Woods—I wrote to accompany it!

The Woods

Summary: For Boromir and Kaia, life with a new baby leaves precious little time for themselves. When Boromir surprises her with a romantic afternoon in the woods, Kaia is more than a little apprehensive of what Boromir will think when he sees her body for the first time since their daughter was born…

Kaia breathed a sigh of relief when with a gentle, airy sigh, Nora finally drifted off to sleep. She’d walked the floor for what seemed like hours with her six-week old daughter fighting her nap every step of the way. But now, the baby slept peacefully in the same cradle in which her father once slept, oblivious to everything around her. She looked over at the nursemaid. “Where is Boromir?” “He said he was going for a ride, my lady.” “Did he say where?” The nursemaid shook her head. “I’m afraid not. Do you need me to have someone fetch him?”
