When a person who already senses death to an abnormal degree brushes her hand against the reaper's scythe reaching for her own head and missing by a hair's width. They will find that death has a way of haunting and taunting her, even if it was not with her own demise. Compromising between the living and dead, the balance is hard to find. Huang An Ni trembled feverishly, every night the dead found ways to send her their desperate cries for help. Moaning about their frightening ways of death, crying for revenge, pleading for her to save them. The deities which despised fate's plans for her would send her the future, for the dead were desperate for her eyes, but the deities loved her entirety. Offering her protection, warmth, and visions. Carrying the burden of their love, Huang An Ni must survive life in the big city, where a series of murders begin taking place dangerously close to herself. For the dead were not the only ones hunting her...

Fear The Reaper - Mystery Party [4] 2019
In 1997 a young girl went into the local school and was never seen again. It was assumed that she had gone missing between her school and home. But, even after a six-month search, no body was found, crucial evidence was missing, and any leads in the case led to the same thing - a dead end. Now many years have passed and the case has been all but forgotten in the eyes of the town's few remaining residents. It was ever apparent by the many decrepit and abandoned buildings, however, that the town had suffered greatly by the disappearance. As a teenage girl passes the old abandoned schoolhouse she is drawn towards a strange noise coming from the enclosed schoolyard, only to find a cat cowering over the bloody corpse of a young woman. Who is this woman? Why was she murdered? And what is on the curious note tucked into the cat's collar? She isn't sure, but the teen is determined to find out. ••• My entry for this year's Mystery Party, hosted by EarnestyCommunity. I hope you enjoy, and I wish all the other participants well.Complete
Of Ruin And Ravenous Things ✓
Death chose Seraphine Valen long before she ever had the chance to choose herself. At eighteen, she stands ankle-deep in the aftermath of a life erased-everyone she has ever loved reduced to silence and ruin around her. From that blood-soaked silence, she rises carrying something no mortal was ever meant to inherit: dominion over death itself. One touch ends a life. One thought bends annihilation to her will. And deep inside her, something dark has finally awakened... and it is starving. Her power does not go unnoticed. The Banes come first-nightmare-born creatures drawn to her like vultures to a dying world, desperate to claim the weapon she has become. As civilization fractures and reality begins to rot at the edges, Seraphine is forced to flee into something far worse than the world she left behind. Death's Castle. An ancient, shifting labyrinth where the walls remember every soul that has ever screamed within them. There, in the cold shadow of eternity, she finds she is not alone. A diviner who reads fate as it unravels thread by thread. A war-vampire, addicted to bloodshed as much as battle. And a brute whose silence hides a loyalty strong enough to crack bone. Together, they form an uneasy alliance-bound not by trust, but by survival. But Seraphine's awakening is only the beginning. As buried truths about her bloodline rise to the surface, she discovers a legacy stitched from both darkness and light-something older than kingdoms, older than gods, older even than death itself. And in the void beyond all things... something has been waiting for her.Complete
Inside Our Head | NEW STORY
This is not just a story. It is a collection of silent battles. Inside these chapters are different minds, different struggles, and different experiences that people often fail to see or understand. Each story opens a small window into lives affected by mental health conditions, emotional pain, and the weight of being misunderstood by society. From obsessive thoughts that refuse to stop, to overwhelming anxiety, to emotions that feel too heavy to carry alone, each chapter shows how different people fight battles that are invisible to others. Some are aware of what they are going through but cannot simply "stop." Some try to function normally while their minds are in constant conflict. Some are judged, ignored, or misunderstood by the world around them. This book does not exist to label people. It exists to humanize them. Because behind every behavior that others may not understand, there is a person trying their best to survive their own mind. And maybe, in reading these stories, we learn to see them a little more clearly. Not as broken. Not as different. But as human.Complete

Death is Looming
"I beg you to listen" Murmuring softly as I froze in his touch. Exhaling slowly. Doing my best not run out of his hold. "What are you saying?" "I'm the Angel of Death" Scoffing and pulling from his touch. "And you were assigned to me?" "Yes" "You're an angel sent to what? Kill me?" Shoving his chest away with all my strength as I rose to my feet, fighting the ache. This was too much, I couldn't breathe. He's supposedly an angel?! An Angel of Death at that?! Lifting his hands in defense. Pain etching his perfect features. "No. No! I'm the one protecting you from-" Angela lived her day to day life with her blissful routine. School, work, home, repeat. But the tables flip when she is met by a brooding stranger that seems to follow everywhere she goes, hiding deep in the shadows but is always there. Who is he? Why was he always there when death is at Angela's doorstep. Why was he always there with every turn of her head?Complete
