From the editorial: 
* The Terror at 20,000 Feet by Elwyn. Set in the vampire universe of Clotilda Willard's "Rites of the Full Moon" and "Second Chance" in U.N.C.L.E. Affairs. (Of course, that was it! Attrition. His life force had been drained past the point where it could sustain him and he was dying. A simple problem with an even simpler solution, if it wasn't already too late).) (33 pages)
* Secret Agent Lesson 101 by D. Ramsey (1 page)
* Legacy by Eros ("Of course it's Fox," Illya said impatiently. "He's not only our godson, he's Alexander Waverly's grandson and only surviving grandchild. When Waverly named us spiritual guardians - which I have never understood, by the way - he did not intend for Fox to live with us.") (winner of a 1996 STIFfie Award) (crossover with The X-Files) (10 pages)
* The New York Affair by Meridian (Oddly enough it was the fear that got through to Napoleon. He heard it in the voice that had never allowed fear to surface before.) (7 pages)
* Never the Wrong Time by D. Ramsey (3 pages)
* Revelation by Theresa Kyle ("Do you -" Illya realized with sudden horror that he had no idea how to find out what he really wanted to know. He couldn't very well ask if Napoleon thought he, Illya, was in love with him.) (10 pages)
* Court of Equality by Hesphestian (Motion interrupted Kuryakin more effectively than the strangled cry. He looked up to see Solo's hands reaching for him, closing on his upper arms.) (12 pages)
* Voyeurs by Jane Terry (Recognizing his friend's apprehension, Napoleon sat up and put a hand on his shoulder. "Do you want to back out now? I could tell Andie you got a call from the office and had to leave..." He moved closer to Illya, so Illya could feel his breath on his ear...or I could leave.") (17 pages)
* Casbah Redux by Taliesin ( "Nothing. Do I have to be up to something?" Solo asked innocently. The expression set well on him. He put the tray of delicacies on the foot of the bed and settled next to his partner, unconcernedly nudging Illya's bare legs out of the way.) (13 pages)
* Beneath the Warrior’s Armor by Linda White (It was a proprietary statement. Illya gazed silently at the badges on the table and pondered the significance of Napoleon's act. Waverly, Slate and Dancer stared. The meaning of Solo's gesture was not lost on them. They were waiting for the Russian's reaction.) (part of the Third Level Universe) (18 pages)
* Prior Claim by Taliesin (2 pages)
* La Dolce Vita – Kuryakin Style by Kate McChesney (The chase was on. Not that it was much of a chase - it was not that large an apartment. Napoleon finally caught up with him in the bedroom, tackling Illya and tossing him on the bed. The wide grin that lit the Russian's face told him that Illya was exactly where he had wanted to be all the time.) (8 pages)

==Issue 3==
Classified Affairs 3 was published in 1997 and contains 147 pages. The cover is by Suzan Lovett, and it won the 1998 FanQ. There is no interior art.
From the editorial: 
* The State Fair Affair by Debbie Rowland (A familiar blond head accompanied the hand rising from behind the bed. "Illya? I could have killed you. What in the world are you doing on the flo..." Napoleon's voice trailed off as Kuryakin rose to his feet. For a moment there was silence in the room, then Solo roared with laughter.) (10 pages)
* The Fake Affair Affair by Linda White (Napoleon's veneer of cool had evaporated the minute his fist hit the van wall. He leaned heavily on his throbbing hand and breathed like a bull in the ring. He was uncomfortably aware of Shephard's eyes on his back.) (16 pages) (part of the Third Level Universe)
* The Four Seasons Affair by K. Ann Yost (Waverly bent to retrieve his bags from the bed. Suddenly Kuryakin grabbed Waverly's tie and pulled him off balance. Waverly didn't even see the hypodermic needle, only Illya's hand reaching for his throat.) (9 pages)
* The Macy's Affair by LG (1 page)
* Venus Wanting by Jane Fairfax (Kuryakin grabbed his wrist. Solo stared it it, and then raised his eyes to meet the blue ones challenging his. Agents were chary of personal space, and Illya was especially jealous of his own, rarely touching anyone. That he violated that barrier now was both a warning to Solo and a promise of his seriousness. But Solo refused to back down.) (26 pages)
* Let Me Use You - Just For A While by Psmythe (poem)
* Blue Eyes by Khylara (Numbly, Napoleon picked up a cookie and broke it open. "The truth will give you what you most desire," he read, secretly wishing it were true. He looked up. "What does yours say?") (7 pages)
* Pay Back Time by Stacy Doyle (1 page)
* The Price of Information by Hephaistion (It was a strange jolt, a juxtaposition of thought that startled Kuryakin. He froze where he was, vaguely aware of the movement of people around him, of conversations that he cared nothing about.) (14 pages)
* Tea For Three by D. Ramsey (4 pages)
* Torturous Memories by Miranda (4 pages)
* The Marriage of Convenience Affair by Taliesin ("You heard me correctly, Mr. Solo. You may date casually as much as you wish - you seem to be able to keep your wits about you so long as you remain in a vertical position." Illya choked on his coffee. Thankfully, neither Waverly nor Napoleon seemed to notice. "But you will go no further than dinner and drinks. Is that clearly understood?") (10 pages)
* Round Robin by Taliesin, Miranda, Debbie Rowland, Kerguelen, Bingo, Dorinda, Kate McChesney & Jane Terry (As Illya pulled the door open he watched in disgust as Napoleon's gaze slid sensuously over his body. "I see you've opted for the 'casual look' this evening," Solo smirked as he brushed past, uninvited, into the apartment) (10 pages)
* Needs by Jane Terry (Something in his friend's too casual tone caused Napoleon to halt. He turned away from the door and found himself staring into guileless blue eyes. In the last two weeks he had developed the habit of avoiding spending too much time alone with people) (reprinted in Re-Compiled Affairs) (28 pages)
* Capturing the Gold by Theresa Kyle ("I suppose some men do like to go put together to, ah, pick up women," he said. "But it's usually been my philosophy that, as the old adage put it, two's company and three's a crowd. No offense.") (5 pages)
