Summary
It's been nearly six years since Aretia burned. Almost six years since the Marked Ones were branded like cattle, and sent off to die in a war that was not theirs to fight.
Daria Sophros has played the game well—entering Basgiath War College, surviving the deadly Parapet and the treacherous Gauntlet. After failing to bond with a dragon her first Threshing, she is determined to emerge from her next year a fully-fledged Rider.
However, when ghosts from her past come knocking, and a sudden shift in circumstances forces her hand, Daria must make an impossible choice—one that will test the limits of her loyalty and challenge everything she previously believed to be true.

Xaden POV: Xaden Riorson - Year 2 by Ubiquitously_Ubiquitous

Summary
Xaden Riorson just finished his first year at Basgiath War College. He's bonded to one of the most feared dragons in Navarre, and he's proven himself to be exceptionally powerful to his quadrant and command alike. Now, it's time for Year 2. Appointed section leader thanks to his efforts in War Games, Xaden will have to navigate new challenges in his second year as an official part of leadership, while secretly making plans behind the scenes, plans that will ensure that all of this, in the end, is worth it. Along the way, he has to navigate the renewed hatred of the new cadets, the prejudices of command, who will stop at nothing to try to break him, and the added stress of a new betrothal, something he wants nothing to do with, all while surviving the most brutal class in the Riders Quadrant.
A continuation of my series of Xaden's POV - Years 1-3, imagining the story of how our beloved wingleader came to be the person Violet meets in Fourth Wing. Many of the characters in this year will be familiar from Year 1, as we pick up where that left off, and this story contains multiple spoilers for Fourth Wing and Iron Flame. I do not recommend reading Years 1 or 2 until both books have been completed.

Summary
Bodhi Durran has been best friends with Liam Mairi for nearly ten years, ever since they were thrown together by tragedy. They do nearly everything together and are as close as two friends can be. In fact, Liam is the ONLY person that knows Bodhi's secret-that Bodhi is gay. But then, one night changes everything, and suddenly, what once seemed impossible is now possible. Now, Bodhi must decide whether he's willing to risk his heart for the person he cares about the most: Liam.
Liam Mairi's best friend is Bodhi Durran. They are close, closer than close, and Bodhi is the only person in the world that truly gets Liam. They spend nearly every free second hanging out, making fun of their other friends, and playing video games. Then, one night changes everything, and now Liam has to confront feelings he never thought he'd have: feelings for his best friend. But can Liam accept who he is?
This is a self-discovery piece inspired by an earlier work of mine. This will be told from a dual POV as both Bodhi and Liam discover who they are both together and apart.
This will also eventually be a companion piece to a larger AU I'm planning involving Xaden, Vi, and co. Check back for that!

Summary
It's a horrible night when Bodhi needs to say goodbye to his cousin one last time.
Bodhi never thought he’d see the day when Xaden wasn’t part of his life anymore. Xaden’s always been a constant—maybe the only time Bodhi’s doubted his cousin was when all of their lives hung on the line and Xaden still managed to succeed. Bodhi never doubted Xaden when it came time for Parapet, even when it was known to have a crazy-high death-rate.
Bodhi shudders. He can see the scars on Xaden’s back, each more vivid than the last: the 107 lines, his dragon’s mark, the rebellion relic, and the various scars and bruises that everyone has. How…?Series

Summary
“I’ll remain standing, thank you very much,” she snipes back, and I cringe back.
(Sloane Mairi collapsed with quiet wails by her boyfriend’s deception. He’d told her that she was his first love. It wasn’t true. He had lied.
He had loved Liam Mairi, her older—and now dead—brother.)
I’m not an inntinnsic—
“Thank Dunne for that,” Cuir snorts.
—but even I can tell what kind of thoughts are running rampant in her head.Bodhi Durran finally had his life figured out (mostly). He lost the love of his life less than a year ago, in the ruins of their old province; was tossed back into war school; watching people he feels responsible for die; being alone from one of his best friends and alone from his cousin, and from the girl he calls “sister”; he’s still doing weapon drops every other night; and then the nightmares come and Bodhi’s still handling Violet Sorrengail’s business because of his damned cousin.
Oh, and did he mention that his girlfriend Sloane found his letters to her brother (A.K.A. the love of Bodhi’s life) and confronted him about it right after a particularly hard nightmare? -

Summary
I’m face to face with my grandfather’s forbidden dragon, the decapitated head of a prince still clenched in one fist, his fresh blood still wetting the sword held in the other.
I haven’t knelt at an altar for any god in the years since I lost Dad, but I’ll fucking crawl on my hands and knees if it means getting Sgaeyl.
Or: Xaden Riorson’s field guide to bonding with your grandfather’s bitchy dragon when you’re not supposed to, manifesting signets that could get you killed by the government, and committing regicide
