At least, Nesta considers the priestess as her friend. Azriel doesn‘t. Not at all.

The second Fae that Elain met calmed her down, her shoulders relaxed and he answered her question in a gentle, poetic manner.

She was terrified, stolen from her home, and Made into a different species because of that first Fae, and then forcibly mated to his best friend.

She was calmed, cared for, taken to the garden and gently, quietly comforted by the second Fae.

“it’s just training, I swear. I mean, who else could train a seer in stealth? trust me.”

Bonus: 😅❤️

The first fae Elain meets beside Tamlin is Azriel. Strangers that meet but are inexplicably drawn to each other. Probably scared Elain to think she could have a connection to a fae and a male who wasn’t Greyson. And despite her deep love for Greyson, she continues to grow closer with Azriel. Despite everything she’s been told about fae, she chooses to trust Azriel, Cassian and Rhys. Decides to trust Fayre.

She is kidnapped, forcibly tortured and made into a Fae. Azriel is the only one who tries to understand her and spend time with her. His gentle kindness and patience help her come back to herself and allow him to figure out that she got powers and that she is a seer.

Oh but plot twist!! When she is brought back from the cauldron, she’s immediately and forcibly told she’s mated to this random redhead friend of her sister. Despite everyone telling her to give him a chance, despite seeing both her sisters get perfect love matches with their mates, she doesn’t feel anything about her mate. Feels locked in a cage. But also feels guilty about her feelings for Azriel. Because they’re so much deeper and etched into her heart already despite everything. Then Solstice. The tension has been building, the yearning is still growing. He gets her a beautiful necklace and almost kisses her but calls it a “mistake” and of course that hurts her feelings and she gives him back the necklace, which he promptly gets rid of. But they’re both just hurt and lashing out. Azriel bc Rhys tries to forbid him from pursuing Elain, and Elain is hurt by him calling their almost kiss ‘a mistake’ she doesn’t know about Rhys’ ultimatum. All of this is true.
