Notes: Written for the tolkien100 prompt: mix up and the genprompt bingo round thirteen square: werewolves.

Beren lengthened his stride and kicked out his heels as he ran along. It was as if he had become one of the werewolves, the gore in the dead animal's pelt soaking through his clothes to his skin.

Although Lúthien wore the heavy skin of a vampire which looked like a curtain of creased, old leather, she did not sink. She flew, for in her heart she was a nightingale.

They were as one. Bird, beast, elf, human, species didn't matter. Their unity disguised them better than any hide. If they were together they would never be out of place.

I like this, his thoughts about that rather gruesome disguise and how his faith in their love soars above it.
