Thank you for the ask darling! Bouquet Full of Longing is another edition in the Bouquet Full of Feelings series and this one is Gwynriel :)

Here's a little snippet!

Azriel could lie to himself and say he was only here to support a friend, but in his sad reality, he was hoping – dying actually, to run into someone else. 

Casually, he shifted and glanced up from his station, his gaze zoning in on the one particular person he was hoping to see.

Gwyn.

Gwyn Berdara stood with Emerie, laughing, hands going wild, her mouth going a mile a minute and Azriel would bet his left arm she was going on about some wildly inappropriate story from one of her many history tidbits. His lips twitched thinking back to their first meeting where, upon seeing his full sleeve of tattoos on both arms, blinked at him and then launched into a crash course on the history of tattoos. Like a nerd. 

He hadn’t stopped thinking about her since and to say he was obsessed with her would be a understatement. Gods, did he want to kiss that pretty mouth of hers. Every time she opened her mouth, he wanted to pepper her with kisses so she remembered to breathe between each sentence.

Azriel wanted to do a lot more than that but they were just friends. Good friends. Friends who hung out with their family and trained at the gym together. Friends who spent a significant amount of time together and Azriel would be damned if he ruined that by being a horndog around her. 

It didn’t matter that he’d last seen her two days ago. It felt like a lifetime had passed. 

“If you stare any harder, your eyeballs are going to be tattooed to her face.” 

Azriel quirked a brow at Nesta who had now appeared at his table. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
