The Empyrean: Fourth Wing (Xaden's POV) by alexa_raye
Fandoms: The Empyrean - Rebecca Yarros

Tags
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
Four hundred years ago, Navarre leadership chose to not hide the existence of the venin. Instead, they aid Poromiel in the fight for the Continent.
We step into this alternate universe as Xaden, fierce rider and Duke of Tyrrendor, meets Violet for the first time. Without the secret of the venin, she excelled in the scribe quadrant to become its leader, and she journeys to Aretia to offer him something he never dreamed of. Her arrival and brilliant mind send him reeling, ensnaring him in a way that feels as if it was simply inevitable.

Summary
Starting as strangers, over the course of a few years, Violet and Xaden meet at different weddings and their obvious attraction doesn't seem to take 'no' for an answer.
Four weddings, four seasons, more plot than I had originally intended. Come for the smut, stay for the possibility of a happy ending.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail, small, stubborn, and violent, with a scholarly disposition, seems to unite less-than-desirable luck with brute strength of will, and had been challenged by her mother to survive a fate worse than death: a successful first season on the marriage market.
Most of society would rather see her ruined than successful – like Xaden Riorson of Aretia, the brutal man who inherited a mantle of social scandal.
But Violet is determined to prove her preceding reputation wrong. She will find a successful match, and will settle for no less than a love match.
It’s not like she has another choice. For women in this world, you can be born rich, marry well, or die alone & ruined.

Summary
Background: Rhoe and Evalin Ashryver Galathynius rule a Terrasen at peace after Orlon's death.
Queen Maeve sends a delegation from Doranelle to visit Terrasen. Aelin and Rowan feel the mating bond straightaway, and next to them, Lorcan and Elide start a slow friendship during this time.This will be a three-part story.
I think it's readable without the context of the main story, but it might be a bit of an odd structure.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail is a forensic anthropologist good with only one thing: dead people. Their bones speak a language only she can hear, but the living aren't quite so easy to understand - particularly one FBI Agent Xaden Riorson, who does everything possible to get under her skin. When an unexpected murder victim washes up in DC, the ensuing investigation brings them closer together despite her every effort to stay away, and she's forced to decide if the careful distance she keeps around her heart is really worth it.
