Summary
At a lavish masquerade hosted at the Riorson House Estate, Xaden Riorson, a poised and duty-bound young man, is swept into an electrifying encounter with a mysterious stranger.
Beneath their masks, they share a fleeting, intimate connection—a dance, a touch—that leaves Xaden longing for more. Torn between his growing desire for the stranger and the heavy expectations of his position as sole heir to the Kingdom of Tyrrendor, he’s pulled back into the world he knows, unable to pursue the freedom he secretly craves.
Haunted by the warmth of the stranger’s touch, Xaden wonders what might have been had he taken a risk and defied the destiny his bloodline has written for him. The memory of that brief encounter lingers, a painful reminder of a life he could never have. As he struggles with the weight of duty, Xaden is left to question the cost of his choices and whether he will ever be able to let go of the haunting possibility of a life unlived.
Now, he must face the devastating truth: some moments, once lost, are impossible to reclaim—Or so he thought.

Summary
In Harry’s oh so humble opinion, Kingsley Shacklebolt, their current Minister of Magic, jinxed them. Or cursed them. Or just dared the universe to become a problem. It was supposed to be a simple case.
If not for the bloody Portkey.

Summary
I straighten the sleeves of my new uniform—a stiff but slightly oversized black suit jacket with a camisole that sits a little lower on my chest than I’d like and matching black slacks, with a pair of black stilettos in my soft leather bag for when I get to the office. One of Mira’s old suit jackets, because I couldn’t bring myself to go out and buy my own. Because this is not where I was supposed to be going today.
While mom had prepared Mira and Brennan for a career in big law—at the massive international firm that bears her name—I’d tagged along with dad since grade school, learning how to help the city’s poor. I’d planned a career in nonprofit work, just as dad had, and had just started my bachelor’s degree in social work so that I’d be better prepared. I’d intended to spend summers as a legal assistant at various nonprofits during undergrad, then law school here in the Bay.
But then Brennan had some sort of breakdown and disappeared, and everything fell apart.

Summary
In the extensive study of the Earth’s shifting surface, wind has proven to be a quiet yet relentless sculptor. Known to scholars as aeolian processes, its actions can carve rock, move deserts, and reshape entire landscapes over time. The term derives from Aeolus, the god who governs the winds.

Imogen has always been good at keeping things contained: her signets, her rebellion ties, her feelings for the one rider she swore off years ago. But between late-night study sessions, dangerous secrets, and a dragon who refuses to stop narrating her crush, the stone has started to crumble.
Now Imogen must learn which battles to fight, which truths to bury, and which temptations are worth surrendering to. Because some kinds of erosion occur slowly, while others strip you bare in an instant.

Summary
“I always wanted to be a rider, Even before,” Liam said ahead of her, ignoring the interruption of their squad mates as they continued down the path between the large dragons. “I would have done it anyways.”
“Figures,” Isela said with a huff. “I’m not surprised since you’re so good at it. No offense to any Dragons listening, but I didn’t. I always left the fighting to Xaden and Bodhi.”
“So what did you want to be?” Liam asked.
“Before it all, I was trying to decide between a scribe or a healer.” Isela said with a wistful sigh. Despite the dragons judging her on both sides. “But then I met Violet. She was already deep into training to be a scribe by the time I got there. And while I was doing drills in the courtyard she’d practice transcribing or reading a tome. I learned a lot about the scribes from her. And honestly I wished I was her.”

Summary
Run.
The word has haunted Elliot Calista's mind since that terrible day years ago. Memories of fear, chaos, and betrayal swirl like a storm she can never fully escape. But Elliot is done running. She's determined to face her problems head-on, with resolve that none will expect. She's not the girl they knew in Tyrrendor anymore.
Dain Aetos senses something different about the first-year woman a few squads over. Cadet Calista shouldn't concern him-she's not even in his squad or section-yet, he can't shake the feeling she's hiding secrets. His father's stern warning echoes: stay away from Calista. But that advice feels impossible; from their first meeting, she socked him in the jaw. He can't stop thinking about her.
Liam Mairi, Ellie's longtime friend, is in his squad with Bodhi Durran's help. But beneath his easy smile lies a deeper truth-Liam has cared for her longer than mere friendship. He thought she was dead for years, but seeing her again reignited his childhood crush. Does Ellie realize how much she means to him?
Unbeknownst to all, Elliot has bonded a fiery dragon that refuses to let her be harmed.
Elliot Calista doesn't know how to give up. She is a warrior, a fighter...

The Daramors are death incarnate.
The commanders of the world.
And I’m the only one left.”

Summary
The aerial corps does not tolerate cross-provincial rivalry within the barracks. The winds over Poromiel are strongest when Storm Talons, Summitwings, and Mist Feathers fly together. The enemy will not care which sky you call home–only whether you fall from it.
-Excerpt from the Poromiel Aerial Corps Field Manual
The skies have opened to welcome Dragon and Gryphons in the same air space, but unity is a fragile thing. Beneath the delicate illusion of alliance simmers rivalries older than the provinces themselves.
Third-year drift leader Selyne Mirevael has unsettled the Aretian Quadrant with the flier’s dangerous mind-magic and uncomfortable truths. Bodhi wants to trust her—needs to—but every whisper in the wind could be another illusion, every touch part of a larger game.
As reality frays and deception soars, they must decide whether to follow their hearts, or survive by doubting everything. By doubting each other.
Iron Flame from the POV of the fliers. Exploring the consequences of bringing mind magic into an already distrustful situation, and having to trust your heart over your head, especially when you can't trust your own mind.

Summary
Theirs is a tale written in fragments: in touches that never lingered long enough, in words left unsaid, in moments missed not by accident, but by design. Their love story was always written in the margins—glimpsed in stolen glances, held together by silence and circumstance, by longing restrained rather than shared. It was forged in the fire of war and betrayal, in the quiet space between who they were and who they had to become. And now, as the world shifts beneath their feet and the past refuses to stay buried, fates become entwined once more, both Violet and Xaden find themselves haunted not just by the memory of what they had, but by the hollow absence of what they never dared to reach for.
Because how can a love like theirs ever end… when it never had the chance to truly begin?
(A Post Onyx Storm Fic).

Summary
Violet Sorrengail was born in chains.
The daughter of the Great Betrayer, she has spent her life marked by the Tyrrish punishment — twenty cuts for twenty years — and kept under the watchful cruelty of a foster family loyal to the crown. When her final cut is made, she is sent to Basgiath War College to serve the very kingdom that destroyed her family.
But Violet knows the truth doesn’t match the history books. Her father died insisting the wards protecting Navarre were failing, that monsters from The Barrens would return. For that, he was executed. For that, she has bled.
Xaden Riorson — son of the kingdom’s most celebrated general — has been taught all his life that Violet’s bloodline is poison. He should hate her. He should want her gone. And yet… every time she fights, every time she survives, his loyalty wavers.
As dragons choose their riders, as Venin stir beyond the borders, and as Violet unearths dangerous truths hidden in her father’s last gift, enemies become uneasy allies, and uneasy allies become something far more dangerous.
Because when the wards fall, it won’t matter who was traitor or hero. It will matter who’s still alive.

Summary
They tried to break her. Torture her. Kill her.
Instead, they forged her into a weapon.
Now Eleanor Riorson-Tavis, Queen of Orlyth, wages war not only against the Venin, but against Navarre and the very gods themselves. The Balance is fractured, magic is unraveling, and with the Shadewing Den reborn, her name has become prophecy and curse alike.
With Garrick at her side, Noodle in her shadow, and Nox and Chradh above, Eleanor has built an empire of monsters-and she will tear the world apart piece by piece to protect what remains of her family. Her kill count climbs. Her mercy burns to ash. Her humanity slips further from reach with every battlefield she leaves empty.
But victory comes at a cost. And the deeper she walks into madness, the clearer it becomes: this was never just war. It is a reckoning. It is the endgame.
Because Eleanor isn't fighting to save the world anymore.
She's fighting to remake it.
And when the dust settles, history won't call her hero or villain. It will call her what she has always been:
Oblivion.
