As feelings long buried rise to the surface, she realizes that the connections she thought were steady may be more complicated than she ever imagined.

Basgiath War College is a hellscape, especially with that swirling relic up my arm. Fourth wing, second squad, flame section is the only way I'm getting through this. He's going to be the death of me. It won't be the dragons, it won't be the challenges, or threshing or the gauntlet. It'll be him.

Shadows of the Fallen ~ Empyrean Series by bellclarke-wg

Six years ago, Aelin Riorson was believed to have died at the hands of Colonel Aetos, with her brother Xaden helplessly watching as her throat was slit. But Aelin survived - and went into hiding, assuming the alias Lillian Parker to protect herself, her brother, and the rebellion. She looks little like Xaden, with pale skin, strawberry-blonde curls, and a gentle demeanor. But her mismatched eyes - golden onyx in one, emerald green in the other - and the knife scar across her neck are the undeniable clues to her true identity. Now, as she enters the Riders' Quadrant, Aelin must keep her past buried. She bonds with Zyphira, a dragon tied to her family's lost legacy, and her signet manifests a dangerous power: a fusion of light and shadow, like her brother's own. As Aelin grows closer to Liam, another rebel, the weight of her secrets grows heavier. But when Xaden begins to question the night she died, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel. In a world where secrets can kill, Aelin's survival hinges on keeping her true identity hidden - but the truth may be impossible to deny. ALL RIGHTS BELONG TO REBECCA YARROS EXCLUDING MY OWN O/C

Stormboud (fourth wing x reader) by pirple-

"The world she came from never wanted her. The world she fell into might kill her. But in both... she refuses to be forgotten." Wren Callahan never meant to become a myth. She was just trying to survive another rainy night in Boston when a lightning strike tore open the sky-and dragged her into a land ruled by dragons, elemental power, and war-hardened cadets. Thrown into Basgiath War College, Wren is labeled an outsider, a liability, and possibly a spy. She's got no magic, no training, and no idea how to survive in a world where dragons kill those unworthy of bonding. Except one doesn't. Nyxatheon, a shadowflame drake thought to be extinct, chooses her. And suddenly, the rules don't matter anymore. As Wren learns to fight, fly, and master a power she shouldn't have, she uncovers secrets buried in dragonkind's history-secrets that tie her Earth-born blood to a long-lost legacy. Someone wants her gone. Others want her dead. And the more she survives, the more she realizes: she didn't just fall into this world. She was brought here. And war is coming-one that could burn both worlds to ash. FOURTHWING is written by Rebecca Yaros. I recommend you read the actual books, trust me, they're great!

Sweet Serenity (Fourth Wing) (Xaden Riorson) by jessiroad

Secrets, betrayal, and forbidden desire intertwine in the world of dragon riders. Serene Panchek has lived her life in the shadows, trained to be silent and invisible, a master at hiding her secrets. But now, as a third-year in the Fourth Wing, she's drawn into the orbit of Xaden Riorson, the infamous rebel leader with secrets of his own. Their connection is electric, undeniable, and dangerous-especially as Serene discovers that the rebellion may be her only way to escape her father's iron grip. But the truth is as deadly as it is liberating, and as the lines between loyalty and love blur, Serene must decide how much she's willing to risk... and who she's willing to betray. When Violet Sorrengail arrives, bringing both chaos and possibility, Serene and Xaden's forbidden connection is tested, revealing a path that could either doom them... or ignite a revolution.

Reagan was always left out and pushed aside, always forgotten about. Living with a foster family who were as loyal to the Crown of Navarre as the King himself, she felt very unprepared for Conscription Day.

Ride or die. Those are her options. However, the longer she survives, the more she feels that maybe... Just maybe she might have a shot, maybe even bond a dragon, find some friends. The longer she survives, the more she questions her past, one she always thought she knew, but now...? She needs to figure out who she is and how she fits into this rebellion war around her. •§• Takes place during Iron Flame (Book 2 of The Empyrean Series - "Fourth Wing" - by Rebecca Yarros- all rights of the world and her characters ext to her) *will have Iron Flame and Onyx Storm spoilers*
