All the things I love and adore about this... omg. This is the kind of fluff love relatively canon-compliant fanfiction I LIVE for thank you...
I adore the part where she touches him with cold hands and he flinches and that flinch makes her flinch even harder to the point where she loses the stealth she has practiced to reflect his sneaking around the palace (I do like the idea that she has learned his ways in secret). I can tell it's modeled after the scene in KoA right after the King has been mortally wounded and she tries to touch his face on the stairs and he leaps back like trapped animal and that makes her pull away and try to go back up the stairs until he pulls her back down to him... it captures how there's still that instinctual shuddering, fearful primal charge between them that their soul love overcomes. For him, an instinctual fear of being harmed. For her, a fear of harming him again....
