Summary
Vesper Sitara was raised to be a legacy.
Daughter of two infamous Tyrrish assassins, she arrives at Basgiath War College with one goal: to make her parents proud and ensure their name is never forgotten. While others fight to survive the Riders Quadrant, Vesper intends to conquer it-blade, bone, and fire.
Placed under the command of Xaden Riorson, the ruthless wingleader tasked with keeping the marked ones alive, Vesper quickly becomes a problem he can't control. He demands restraint. She was raised for rebellion. Every clash between them burns sharper than the last-and no matter how hard she tries, she can't seem to stay away from him, even when she knows exactly how dangerous that is.
As her first year unfolds, Vesper gains power: a dragon as savage as she is, and a place in a quiet rebellion growing beneath Navarre's rule. But chasing her parents' legacy means stepping deeper into blood, secrets, and a war that is far from over.
Vesper Sitara didn't come to Basgiath to survive.
She came to become a legend...even if it kills her.

Summary
“I do not understand,” I say, anger flaring in me suddenly. “What do you want from me?”
“I want you to look at me. I—” His voice breaks, just barely. He clears his throat and looks at me straight. Brave. “I want you to look at me,”
My anger falters.
“All my life,” he chokes, looking at me helplessly. “That’s all I’ve wanted. But you have never. I cannot stand to see you with Tarsem or Ìpxea, or whoever else. I cannot stand it; I am selfish. I want to be awful to them.” He laughs, without humor, and looks down at his feet. “I thought I could just stay away. But then you almost die taking a bullet for us!”
I stare at him helplessly, my heart its own creature in my chest.
---Jun is many things: an orphaned boy, a capable hunter, a fine warrior. And, apparently, the sole object of Neteyam’s desires.

Summary
When he finds the courage to leave the comfort of her steam shrouded bathroom, he makes his way out to the living room.
He stops in his tracks when he hears her, a fond smile etching onto his face.
He’s careful to disguise his footsteps on the vinyl floor, not wanting her to stop. He was rapidly beginning to realize he could listen to her sing forever.
She flits around the kitchen, alternating between humming and singing along to whatever music played in her ear, and all Frank can do is watch.
“Oh!” She says with a jolt when she finally notices him, “Frank! How are you feeling? I made spaghetti…spaghetti’s okay, right?”
“Yeah.” He nodded, “Yeah, spaghetti’s okay.”
She shuffles out of the kitchen a few moments later with two bowls in tow, “We can sit at the table, the couch…whatever you’re most comfortable with. If you want we can put something on the TV, that’s what Becca usually likes to do…”
“I like when you sing.” He can’t stop the words from coming, and he doesn’t regret them one bit when he watches her face change shades if only slightly.
“Oh.”
