Chapter Synopsis : Azriel has a mini heart attack and Azriel and Gwyn sleep together
“So shall we get ready for bed?” Gwyn asked. “Yeah sure.” Azriel replied and went towards his bed. “I’ll just go and change then.” Gwyn said and went straight to his bathroom without waiting for his reply.
So they were really doing this. He was gonna help her get through her fears so that she could find a person to spend her life with. Azriel couldn’t stop himself from feeling a pang of jealousy.
He wasn’t sure if it was from imagining that he would be left lonely again and each one of his friends would have found their partner, or from imagining Gwyn with a guy.

Gwyn thanked the house for the pajamas and t-shirt that appeared in the bathroom. The bathroom was as big as a house and Gwyn could probably spend her entire life in there.
She changed into the night suit and fixed her hair a bit. She then brushed her teeth with the brush that had appeared on the slap. She had never really wore anything except her training leathers or her priestess robes until now, but when she looked at herself in the mirror, she liked the way she looked.
The t-shirt was more of a crop top than a shirt and it let a little bit of her naval show. But she wasn’t nervous in any way. She was actually very comfortable. A sudden hint of proudness hit her and she smiled.
I am the rock against which the surf crashes, nothing can break me.
She took a deep breath, and walked out of the bathroom.

Azriel was just staring at the ceiling trying not to be nervous when he heard the closing of a door. His gaze snapped towards the sound that came from his left side of the room and saw Gwyn walking towards his bed.
She’s beautiful.
The first thought that came in his mind that Gwyn was absolutely beautiful. He had never ever seen her like that. Her hair open and a small smile on her face.
He’d always known Gwyn was beautiful, but he refrained himself from thinking that during training because it was unprofessional.
But acknowledging someone’s beautiful isn’t unprofessional shadowsinger.
And the words slipped out before he could stop them, “You’re beautiful.”
Azriel damned his shadows to hell because he could hear them chuckling while he was having a heart attack.
Gwyn’s eyes widened a bit before her face became neutral again, “Thank you.” And continued walking towards his bed.
She silently slipped under the covers. Azriel could hear her heart beating fast. But he was sure Gwyn could hear the beating of his heart as well.
Azriel could use his shadows to mask his scent, not his heart.
“Goodnight Az,” Gwyn said before turning towards Azriel and staring at him for a second before closing her eyes. “Goodnight Gwyn.”
A/N : Short chapter againnn I knowww but my finals are coming up and I’m also preparing for Gwynriel week :)
A Court of Whispers and Song Chapter 69 is up! NSFW
Azriel flashed a crooked grin, his words sweeping her jaw as he said, “Perhaps after all these months you have forgotten how well I know you, Gwyneth.” His lips brushed hers, a hint of a kiss. Her knees shifted against his. A silent plea. “Perhaps I need to remind you how well I know you.”
Welp. NSFW ️️️️ It’s been a far too long. It’s over 6k. It’s gratuitous. You all deserve it. Enjoy!
