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!

Summary
“Would you like some help?” A deep voice called out as the taxi drove away. Violet looked up in surprise as a pair of feet came into her vision. She almost dropped her bag in surprise when he stopped in front of her.
Her eyes slowly dragged upwards, she swallowed as they glazed over his navy jeans and plain black fitted tee until her eyes were level with his chest, and then still up further. He seemed to go on forever. She tried not to notice his sharp jaw line or his slightly cracked lips. When she finally met his dark eyes - sparkling in the sunlight, he raised a brow expectantly at her.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail is on a holiday mission: Save her best friend's struggling café by persuading one reluctant business owner to participate in the annual Christmas decorations contest.
The only problem? The impossibly intense (and gorgeous) co-owner of The Iron Flame, who views Christmas as nothing but an annoyance and a distraction from training.
He is the ultimate Grinch. Violet is pure, Christmas cheer. What could go wrong?
