daughter of the forest.

Tauriel’s  DOMINANT  hand  taut  the  string  of  her  bow.    The  projectile  point  AIMED  in  wrath  at  Thranduil’s  porcelain  complexion;    precisely  between  eyes  resembling  the  clear  waters  in  Mirkwood.    Her  HEART  was  pulsating  as  loud  as  a  passionate  musician  beating  on  percussion.      Tauriel’s  freshly  moistened  lips  parted  to  utter  words  she  hoped  would  strike  HARDER  than  the  strength  of  her  bow.    Her  nose  crinkled  in  a  snarl,   lips  curled  though                                        she  were  a  fierce  wolf protecting  her  KIN.
