"There are some secrets that do not permit themselves to be told." Edgar Allen Poe.
Phoebe King has secrets to say the least. In the attempt to save her life, Phoebe sold her soul to Hades. Reading the fine print isn't something you do when you're dying. To keep hers, Hades makes her collect the runaways. A soul for a soul, ya know. One day that soul bounty will be the bastards who sentenced her to death by anothers fists and when that day comes, a new deal will be made in the Underworld.
"Hell is empty and all the devils are here." William Shakespeare
Phoebe King may have sold her soul to me but it's I who is indebted to her. She doesn't just collect runaway souls, She's keeping the rest of the Gods from noticing one is missing. Only problem when she made the deal, I didn't realize her beauty would attract the attention it does. How can I keep the hidden agenda of my deal if all eyes are on her?
"A sad soul is always up past midnight"
The only thing I could remember when I woke up. No name, No birthdate, Nothing but a sad quote about souls. Must have a sad one I can't remember much about because I find myself comforted by the night. Who the Hell am I? The only question I seem to want answers too.

She was the Holy One. He took her, though. Death. Death took her in so many ways. That's how Illiana came to meet Thanatos. Through Death. The centre of his being. And he'd be damned if she was taken away from him. She was his, and he was hers. Through both blood, and soul. ♛♛♛♛ The door clicked open, a silent scream leaved my watery lips. Thanatos stood there, his gaze roaming over my half naked body. "Get the fuck out!" I squeaked. Thanatos smirked, stepping forward, his hand going up to wrap around my throat, pushing me against the mirror. My breath hitched in my throat, quick breaths escaping my mouth. His nose ran down the side of my face, across my jaw, stopping at the side of my mouth. My mouth opened. Thanatos stepped back smirking at my flustered state, walking away in a cocky gait. I slammed the door, my face flushing in embarrassment. #1 Thanatos #1 Charon #1 Bonded #2 Hades ♛♛♛♛Complete

Bound by More Than Vows
Florence never expected her ordinary life to become a wedding dowry. Traded by her father to secure a dangerous alliance, Florence finds herself engaged to Hades Williams-a ruthless man who commands respect through fear and controls his empire from the shadows. He's devastatingly handsome, but there's blood on his hands and darkness in his soul. Their marriage is a business transaction in his violent world. No emotions. No intimacy. Just a contract that keeps enemies at bay and strengthens his power-or so they tell themselves. But Florence isn't the innocent pawn everyone expects her to be. Raised by herself in a world that showed no mercy, she's learned that survival means being sharper than the knife at your throat. She doesn't want his blood money, his fortress of a mansion, or his lethal protection. She just wants to be more than a pretty face to clean up his brutal reputation. Hades thought he was getting a naive wife to play the perfect mafia princess. Instead, he got a woman who doesn't flinch at broken glass or shattered bones, who sees through his cold facade, and who refuses to be just another casualty in his war against his own father's empire. As their worlds collide in a storm of violence and vendetta, they'll discover that some bonds are forged in fire and blood-and that sometimes the most dangerous thing you can do is fall for someone in a world where love makes you a target. When love meets the mafia world, will it bloom into something beautiful-or will it destroy everything they've fought to protect? Florence & Hades - In a marriage built on lies and violence, can their hearts survive the bloodbath?Complete
Ashes to Heir | Death x Reader
She was born into a world that taught her pain before it taught her language. Raised behind locked doors and whispered lies, she was told she was nothing-powerless, unloved, a mistake. But as the bruises faded and the scars became stories, her siblings began to fight back. Some with rebellion. Some with secrets. Some by trying to help her escape. Then she finds the book-dust-covered, forgotten in the attic, humming with something older than time itself. What begins as a mystery spirals into something far greater: an unraveling of the truth. She's not a muggle. She's not powerless. She's not who they told her she was. She is the heir to Hogwarts. She is the key to an ancient legacy. And she is the mate of Death. Not a monster in a cloak, but something eternal, bound to her by fate, watching her silently through every hardship she was never meant to face alone. Her life was built on lies. But her magic? Her bond? That's real. And now that the truth is waking, nothing-not the Ministry, not the shadows, not even death itself-will ever be the same.Complete
Death Is My BFFLAD (Book Two Original Series)
(Bfflad- Best friends for life and death) Dear Reader, Let's start at the beginning shall we? I died. Oh no, not one of these stories again where someone angelic and heroic saves the damsel in distress. If only I was that lucky. My heart stopped beating. My lungs stopped working, my soul began to lift away... And then I was saved by a beautiful man with a kind heart and sparkles sprinkled around his head in a golden halo. A cunning, dazzling smile etched his angled features and his hair lay perfectly on his head like...black, sinful layers of pure cynical distrusting evil. Evil that was just waiting to onset a innocent girl as myself and allow her a short amount of time of happiness, and then finish her off when she became older. I'll give you a hint. The beginning of that description was slightly exaggerated. The Angel of Death. One of the only creatures known that was capable of settling the boundaries of heaven on earth. The only creature capable of making one of the Devil's darkest deals to my loving mother; a second chance for her daughter. This comes with consequences of course. Everything you know about Death is wrong. Death is not natural, Death is not normal, Death is not doleful, and Death is far from mercenary. Death blends into the shadows like coal against the most atramentous sky. Death walks the earth with his cursed, monstrous and exotic features, his enticing voice and betraying alluring eyes. Death deceives, scratches, and plays with your mind, until you slowly and painfully loose your grip on reality. He'll make you believe he's a different person, that there's a sliver hope for him. Hope for you. Death is close.

Bride of Thanatos
Death covets life-but she never looks his way. Until one fateful day. When archaeology student Ella drunkenly stumbles into a forgotten ruin in Greece, the last thing she expects is to wake a god. But her blood, spilled upon an ancient altar, does the unthinkable-it stirs Thanatos, the primordial god of death, from his first peaceful slumber in eons. He had been resting, taking a divine "vacation" granted by his twin brother Hypnos, when a mortal's curiosity quite literally kissed him awake. Now, Death walks the mortal world again-irritated, weary, and tethered to the woman who woke him. Ella, on the other hand, is horrified to discover she's not just trespassed on sacred ground but accidentally bound herself to the very embodiment of mortality. The two are forced into an uneasy coexistence: she, the living spark he was never meant to touch; he, the shadow who was never meant to linger. As their worlds collide-Greek ruins, meddling gods, divine bureaucracy, and one very cranky reaper-they begin to learn from one another. Thanatos, who has always known endings, discovers what it means to live. Ella, who has always chased the past, learns to see beauty in the inevitable. Their story unfolds between laughter and sorrow, myth and mortal folly-a dance between life and death itself. But love, like all living things, has a time limit. Once the fates cut the threads of their story, will they break the order of existence-or will Death carry away the woman who taught him how to feel? A blend of Greek mythology, dark romance, tragedy, and comedy, Bride of Thanatos is a tale where death start to yearn more than just an ending, life learns surrender, and eternity holds its breath for love that was never meant to be.
Hades Rewound (Hades Series #2)
*to be edited: please excuse any continuity errors and / or mistakes in regards the writing quality of Hades* You could say that a lot has happened to Evie Autumn over the past few years. 1. Her best friend died (kind of ) and she found out that everyone she knew were immortal-walking-on-the-earth Greek gods. 2. She fell in love with the ruler of Hell (kind of) and agreed to become his new Queen. 3. She battled jealous sea gods and scary titans; a big fight which really, all could have been avoided with a big family therapy session. Yup, life sure was calmer than it had been in a while. Not that Evie missed the chaos or anything; she totally loved sitting around all day with the love of her life, alternating between telling people how to live their afterlives and telling Hades that he really needed to educate his Disney movie knowledge. But then that serene bubble was shattered when, once again, her life was maliciously twisted out of proportion right in front of her; and on her wedding day, no less. Once again, Evie must race against the clock to save the love of her life - and the world, of course - before time runs out; but this time, the stakes are much higher. This time, it's not just the fate of the world on the line. It's Evie's heart too. [Ranked #76 in Teen Fiction on 05.10.16] [OFFICIAL HADES SEQUEL]Complete
