When she meets his eye, it's like those times when they glance at each other during training, when they're in perfect agreement for an extended, shining moment.
Azriel extends his hand, his Siphon gleaming cobalt and his fingers bare even in this cold, the scars an intricate mark of whatever he himself has survived.
"Welcome to the mission, Gwyn," he says, and Gwyn wants to savor it, the feeling of his hand wrapped around hers, his long fingers brushing her wrist. The approval she sees in those lovely eyes. She could swear she sees one of his shadows make its way up her arm.

Fox and Fawn
An Elucien Holiday Novella Lucien still didn't look at her. "I have spoken with Feyre. She, as you know, has spell-cleaving abilities - far greater than my own." Another deep shuddering breath. "And she has agreed to break our bond." Elain froze in her seat. Her mind wiped of all reason. Of all words. Lucien continued, "Tomorrow." Elain's heart stuttered. He finally met her eyes, and a warm smile spread on his lips. Warm and comforting and sincere. It made Elain sick. Lucien stood gracefully and held out his hand. Numbly, Elain placed her fingers in his palm. Then he raised her knuckles to his lips, just like a knight in one of the books that Nesta read to her as a girl. Just like a prince. Just like a gentleman. "Happy Solstice, Elain." And he left. *** All chapters uploaded 130 pages, approx 40 K wordsComplete
The Raven and the Songbird
"I thought we were friends, Azriel. I was caught off-guard but you have to know it was forgiven the day it happened." The priestess looked back up to him. His body vibrated from the determination that sparkled in her gaze like the moon reflected in the sea. "It was stupid, Azriel. And unfair to both Elain and myself. But everyone does stupid things." The Illyrian took a cautious step toward her, afraid she would bolt. "We are friends, Gwyn. I'm sorry. You're right, I was an idiot." "We both deserve better. But I know you'll be better." She shrugged. His breathing shallowed when she finally pushed away from the door frame and walked to him, stopping just out of his reach. "I miss you, Azriel." A story of Azriel and Gwyn as they begin to build their lives together, even as darkness - from around them and within - threatens to tear them down.GwynethComplete
A court of Shadows & Blood (An ACOTAR / Azriel fanfiction)
(Azriel × OC) (Morrigan × OC) "The devil, shadowsinger, is whatever you want them to be. What do you desire most? What will you sacrifice everything for?" He knew what he wanted the most. He was looking at it but black, cold eyes stared back. No. What he wanted was not this. His desire was human, living, filled with warmth and love. It laughed in the colours of the rainbow and the songs of birds. It had the shadows of lovers wrapped around it and the darkness of assasins and magic flowed in it's veins. "I can help you get whatever you want for a small sacrifice." The hauntingly familiar person spoke. "Or you will can die trying. Choose wisely, for you are trapped here with me." Their smile turned lethal. "I am not trapped with you." The spymaster smiled. "You are trapped with her."Complete
