Summary
Sloane Mairi was never meant to be anyone’s weapon. Liam’s shadow, the spoiled daughter of a fallen Tyrrish house, the cadet branded Venin behind her back. But her siphoning signet is rewriting the rules of war and pulling her into orbit with the one man she swore she’d never touch.
Dain Aetos was forged in obedience, a wingleader built from his father’s rules and his own fear of failure. But Sloane’s defiance cracks his armor, forcing him to question who he serves and what he truly wants. As secrets of his mother, his loyalties, and his buried hungers claw to the surface, Dain finds himself unraveling.
While Violet Sorrengail claims the throne she never wanted, forging alliances on the knife’s edge of the future, a darker bond coils between Dain and Sloane. Not dragon-forged. Something worse. Because obsession doesn’t make good soldiers. And sharp-tongued girls don’t make good secrets.

Summary
Sloane Mairi was forged in the fire of grief. Over the course of her short life, she's grieved for her parents, her province, and now her brother. The flames of her grief and anger could consume her, devour her, if she lets them, but without them, how would she go on?
Dain Aetos isn't sure who he is or what he's doing. Lately, he's begun to doubt everything he's ever known, himself most of all. Lately, he's been looking for answers to questions he's never thought to ask before.
Can these two broken souls find peace in the unlikeliest of places: each other?

The Empyrean: Fourth Wing (Xaden's POV) by alexa_raye

Summary
Newly appointed to the rank of Wingleader, Xaden Riorson only has one goal for his third and final year at Basgiath: Get all the marked ones bonded and graduated so they might stand a fighting chance against the true evil lurking at Navarre’s borders. The only problem is that Violet Sorrengail, his enemy’s youngest daughter, has also joined the Rider’s Quadrant this year. He doesn’t know why she’s here, what her plans are, or if he can trust her. All he knows is that he can’t seem to stay away.
This is a rewrite of my previous fic “The Wingleader – Xaden’s POV”. It’s a Fourth Wing retelling from Xaden’s POV with new Iron Flame updates. It follows the dialogue and chapter timeline from Fourth Wing with my own interpretations and theories of Xaden’s actions and feelings.
Do not read if you haven’t finished both FW AND IF - major spoilers from BOTH books throughout!

What did the interactions between Dain, Violet and Xaden look like from the outside? What truly made Amber organize the unbonded’s night time attack on Violet?
