Black Sapphire | Xaden Riorson | S/H
*SHE/HER*
*Book 1 of 2*
Every year, swaths of 20-year-olds descend upon a college campus. Unfortunately, this college specializes in war, in consideration of the one raging at its borders. Outposts and enemies line the eastern mountains, guarded by many from the army, but most notably, the Dragon Riders.
(Y/N)'s future was determined long before she was born, and none of that destiny included Basgiath. She watched her grandfather descend into mad ramblings from his battles after bonding a dragon, then fell to the whims of a power-hungry Colonel who would do anything to hurt her. The quadrant destroyed the good and empowered the bad, and she wanted nothing to do with it.
Xaden Riorson's future was clear, no Basgiath or dragons in sight. That was, until he was 16, when his father's apostasy-turned-secession fell apart; his home was burned; and his father went missing, only to be reported by someone he thought was an ally, then murdered.
Unfortunately for both of them, Basgiath wouldn't let them off so easily.
Xaden became a Wingleader, ready and willing to sacrifice almost anything to fulfill his goals, no matter how selfish they are.
(Y/N) stepped onto the bridge, but she had no intention of making it across. Her ruined future and unstable life would be given to a cause much more worthy than the torture of Basgiath: her mother, her father, and her patron, Zihnal, the God of Chaos.
