Book 1: My first book of The Heralds of Death Trilogy!


My name is Thanatos, I have spent twenty-five-years of Hell fighting for the bloodthirsty Caesar of Rome. I was known as the Gladiator of Mercy. 

You may find it shocking that a blind little boy at the age of ten-years-old would survive for as long as I have as a Gladiator but I was resilient. And I had a patron savior The Woman in Red; a woman Caesar could never see and yet somehow she would make the Caesar spare my life.


That woman is Morrigan the Reaper of War and Fate, and the love of my life. Our story is only the beginning of our tale as the Heralds of Death.

So come and share a pint of beer with this Blind Man of Rome and you may just hear the tale of how I came to be known as the Reaper of Mercy.جميع الحقوق محفوظة

Book 2: The Grim Omen بقلم Jaimeeking1

Book two of my Herald of Death Trilogy My fate was planned that much I know. I was born to be a Reaper but I disregarded my fate for most of my life out of the fear that I would never uphold to the status of being a Herald of Death. I feared of disappointing my friends, my parents, and most of all grandparents. I mean really when your father is the Grim Reaper you understand why I feared of following in my families footsteps. I didn't want to let them down. My grandmother Morrigan the Celtic Reaper of War and Fate had other plans, though I doubt she realized how important the day my father became a Reaper of Death would mean for the rest of world. You see before you can get to my story of how I became a Reaper of Death I first have to tell you of how my father became the Grim Reaper. It is a tale best heard in the dark of night within a empty Tavern as a thunderstorm rages on outside with the errie tune of piano playing solemenly in the background. Now that I've got your attention I suggest you listen closely to all you hear. As the cold chills go up your spines while the story progresses into the dark and eerie realm of supence and mystery don't say I didn't warn you because this isn't for the faint of heart. So without further ado allow me to regale you all in the spine chilling tale of romance, suspence, and mystery of the origins of how my father became the Grim Reaper and of how I ultimately became a Herald of Death.

Bound by Bloodshed (Gladiator romance) بقلم nrmartini

Brewin Ambrade is fighting to live on borrowed time. After being molded into a weapon for the Romans to wield, killing has become second nature for the gladiator, and with each life taken by his hand, a piece of his humanity vanishes along with it. This catches the eye of Emperor Lucius Marius, who believes Brewin's sacrifices have earned him an opportunity at life outside the colosseum walls and within a set of another- his palace. Trapped by her father's iron grip and betrothed to a Roman general she despises, Cyra Marius is no less a prisoner than the man now appointed with watching her every move. She remains misunderstood... simply labeled a spoiled brat due to her defiance for the duties laid before her. Cyra yearns to see the world that exists beyond the walls lining Rome, and the broken gladiator with nothing to lose may just be the one to get her there. As their worlds clash, they come to an unexpected understanding... a connection that runs so deep it goes against everything they've ever known. Together, they begin to formulate a plan. Desperate to take back the freedom stolen from them, they'll do whatever it takes- no matter what the cost. *TRIGGER WARNING* Bound by Bloodshed is a time-piece depicting the lives of gladiators, the Roman Empire, and those at the mercy of their command. Brutality courses through the veins of this story, and though the names are that of fiction, many have suffered from the elements depicted on page, including: emotional and physical abuse, sexual acts, violence, injury, human death, animal death, blood, and gore. To all the victims of unfair treatment, know that you are seen. Readers who may wish to avoid these topics, read with caution. To those ready to fight, join us as we enter the colosseum.

Building the Tension | ✔ | 18+ بقلم HonestPassion13

CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT. Set in the Vampire Academy Moroi/dhampir world. Alternate ending. What if the Mână never tried to claim Lissa? The cabin would never happen, but Rose might have heard from Mason about the Strigoi attack sooner. No Strigoi Dimitri. Tatiana lives. Romitri happy ending. Told from Rose's POV (mostly). We won't get into the Mature content rating for at least the first few chapters, but I am hoping to have a nice suitable replacement for the cabin scene eventually. Bear with me for the first two chapters where there is a lot of similarities to Richelle Mead's original plot. It will be diverging slowly to something completely different. Highest rankings: 🥇#1 in #rosehathaway 🥇#1 in #richellemead 🥇#1 in #vasilisadragomir 🥇#1 in #dimitribelikov 🥉#3 in #moroi #4 in #rosehathaway #5 in #strigoi #7 in #christianozera #10 in #dhampir #10 in #moroi *** "Why don't you let me be the judge of what I need, Dimitri? Because right now, all I need is you." Dimitri gripped my upper arms and looked into my eyes. It was clear that he was searching my face for something, but I couldn't tell what. Everything in me wanted nothing more than for him to just kiss me at that moment. Until that moment, I hadn't truly considered the downright carnal possibilities that existed by us being alone together in his apartment, despite the fact that he was standing in front of me practically naked in nothing but a towel. And now, my fingers itched to remove that towel - and I desperately wanted him to remove my clothes, too. He continued looking at me and I saw the warmth go out of his eyes. "There's a difference between a need and a want," he said, "You're just learning what you truly need out of life. I can't be the one to provide you with those things."

The Mafia's Mercy بقلم Laisha_Gardner

The darkness in his eyes, the dangerous smell of alcohol in his breath, and his deathly grip keeping me bound to him made my heart pound in my chest and my body quiver beneath him. Shamefully, it wasn't anything that I wasn't used to, because...the things I let him do to me? When he was frustrated, annoyed, and angry at the world, I was here to be his pound of flesh. In return, he masked the void of my loneliness because for months, that was the transaction of our relationship. He'd pin me to the wall, bend me over the counter, pull my hair, slap me, choke me, and I enjoyed every second of it because in that moment, it finally felt good to be powerless. Irony is a funny thing. I enjoyed being in pain because it made me forget how much I was hurting. *** "I warned you, doll." His voice strikes a string of chills down the base of my spine, a reminder that all of the time in the world could pass, and he's still not letting go. This is where the good girl in me dies. "You're mine now," he whispers. *** My name is Mercy-Mercy Carter. I went to college. Got myself a useless Bachelor of Science in Mathematics degree. His name is Marcel-Marcello Saldívar. However, at the time, I didn't know that he, the heir to the Saldívar Mafia empire, was the man that I had blindly offered myself to. As smart as I am, I was stupid all the times when it actually mattered. After all, he did warn me that he was dangerous. I just didn't think he could be much worse than my thug of a brother. I was vulnerable-naive. My name is Mercy, and I belong to him. My name is Mercy, and I am The Mafia's Mercy. ⚠️ Content Advisory: This is a DARK Romance novel, in every sense of the word.
