He's always in control... She's always wild... Danica Hawthorne has been training for the day she would cross the Parapet into the Rider's Quadrant at Basgiath War College. As a general's daughter, she's expected to excel and become the strongest in her year. Fellow cadets target Danica to get revenge for their parents' deaths, and she must come face-to-face with the son of the Great Betrayer: Xaden Riorson. When she bonds with the mate of his dragon, their lives are irrevocably tied together. Will they end up wanting to kill each other or kill for the other?

"I have only ever known loss and ruin. I lost my father. I lost my home. I lost my people. I lost whatever power I had just so I could protect what was left of my legacy. Now I know none of it ever mattered to me the way you do." This is a story about what true feelings mean when compared to the absurd force of a broken heart. How love may disappear but never truly leaves you behind. How friendship can become love and then nothing at all. A dragon without its mate is death incarnate. A rider without his soulmate is death still breathing.

Wrenley Tavis craves normalcy. At Basgiath, she clings to the familiar-her bond with her mother's dragon and her steady relationship with Xaden Riorson. With Xaden by her side, she believes she can navigate the turbulence of her world and finally find peace. But when Violet Sorrengail arrives at the Riders Quadrant and bonds with the mate of Xaden's dragon, everything changes. The life she thought she could depend on begins to unravel, and Wrenley must decide whether she can fight for the future she wants, or if she's just chasing shadows of that future.

Sometimes, a throat slit doesn't end in death. Not entirely, at least. For many people death was the end but for her it was just a beginning...

Surviving the Riders Quadrant is hard enough, but surviving it while keeping a massive secret? That's just plain reckless. Nyx Greycastle-well, that's the name she's using-has spent her life surrounded by dragons, but pretending to be just another first-year cadet at Basgiath War College is proving more difficult than she expected. Between sadistic instructors, bloodthirsty rivals, and an annoyingly handsome wingleader who keeps looking at her like he knows something, staying under the radar is impossible. Oh, and there's also the minor issue of not dying before Threshing. With secrets, enemies, and an ever-growing number of dumb decisions piling up, Nyx is in for the deadliest three years of her life. But if she wants to claim a dragon-and live long enough to turn the tide of a secret war-she'll have to prove she's more than just a name. Because in the Riders Quadrant, survival isn't guaranteed. It's earned. Updated on AO3 first under the same name. I do not own the characters, only Aelin Tauri/ Nyx Greycastle, please let me know if you are enjoying

Annabella Tauri was told she was forbidden from entering the riders quadrent at Basgiath War College when she turned twenty. So she snuck off to join them anyway. Once she learns of a terrible secret her father and the rest of the highest ranking members of the country of Navarre, she vows to do something to help the innocent lives being killed beyond their wards. But then she meets Xaden Riorson, the son of the Great Betrayer and the guy who killed her older brother. What happens when they learn they're on the same team?

Dicen que cuando un Targaryen viene al mundo, los dioses lanzan una moneda. Nadie sabe si caerá del lado del genio o de la locura... Solo que, una vez arrojada, el mundo entero tiembla esperando ver en qué se convierte la criatura que ha nacido bajo el fuego de los dragones. Los Targaryen no son como el resto de los linajes. Son antiguos, más antiguos que cualquier registro escrito en los anales de Navarre. Su sangre no corre, arde. En ella habita el eco de un poder ancestral, tan viejo como el mismo firmamento, vinculado a la magia salvaje que se creía extinta... o sellada.

god, i love you i'd kill a dragon for you, i'll die.

Antes de los nombres, antes del cielo partido por alas, hubo fuego. Un fuego que no debía pensar. Que no debía sentir. Y aún así, eligió. De esa elección prohibida nació Seraphyra -ni humana, ni dragona- una hija del Fuego Primordial, forjada en secreto, sellada por destino. Ahora, ocultando su verdad bajo un nombre prestado, entra al corazón del mundo que debe comprender... o destruir. Pero en Basgiath, todo poder tiene un precio. Y toda mentira... una fecha de vencimiento. "Nació del fuego que los dioses prohibieron... y ahora camina entre mortales como una sombra con corona."
