    Summary

    “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.

    Summary

    **Daily releases starting 7/18 - 572 pages complete**
    The insinuation didn’t make her mad. It didn’t comfort her. But it did strike a chord. “My instincts are the only reason I’m alive. They’re why those children in Sangravah survived.”
    Azriel descended to the grounds of the river house. “Then perhaps you should listen to them.” He set her down gently and the moment she opened her mouth to retort, he cut her off. “I told you I would wait. I meant it.”
    His words rendered her dumbfounded. They were the words of a male devoted. A male who knew her far longer than Azriel had. But she didn’t reject them, because her tears over his broken body had been the tears of a female who had lost a part of their soul. A female bound to him.
    “Shall we?” said Azriel, gesturing up at the river house.
    And Gwyn nodded, for she knew no words.

    Summary

    “Just that the feeling is mutual. The same way you can’t lose me?” Gwyn shook her head. “I can’t lose you.”

    The shadows on Azriel’s shoulders wriggled down his arms, coming to wind around Gwyn’s wrists like an affectionate pet. “Berdara, you’re not going to lose me.”

    “What if Beron tries to–”

    Azriel lowered his voice, “Beron Vanserra is an old fool, too blinded by his lust for power and insecurities to see that his ruin is right under his nose.”

    Summary

    “It doesn’t have to be a date,” Atsumu lied. “We’re just two teammates hangin’ out. I hang out with the rest of the team all the time. Yer the only one who’s scared of catchin’ feelings.”
    “I told you, I’m not scared. There is a zero percent chance of me developing romantic feelings for you."
    “Great. Prove it.”
    “Wh-what?”
    “Come over on Saturday night and watch something with me. Real casual.”

    Atsumu’s plan to woo Kiyoomi while watching a scary movie goes horribly wrong… or does it?
