What is it about death that fascinates us so much? The thought of death and the afterlife had been on my mind for days, so as soon as I had some time on my hands, I decided to take a deeper look at the subject. Humanity has sought answers for these questions-and others-since the time of the ancient Greeks and Hebrews. Is it possible to "survive" death? Are we going to recognize ourselves? Will we get to see the people we have left behind or the people who have gone before us? Will our actions in this life be rewarded or punished? What happens when we die or when history finally ends? What will be our destination?

Death's Duty by writerbrittanyb

(18+) *Complete/Unedited* ---- "You are death." I heard the grin in his tone. "Death's duty is to take care of the already departed. Newly deceased, and previously deceased alike." ***** Morrigan Wraith lives a double life; one not many would think to question. While on the outside she looks like a normal human detective, underneath all of that lies a grim reaper. Reapers were created at the beginning of time, formed to be unemotional and detached as a soul's transport to either Heaven or Hell. But Morrigan is unlike the rest. She was created with a defective heart - one that felt emotion, and one that got her into more trouble than she ever imagined. (18+ for language, violence, and sexual situations)

The Pit: Watchmaker's Hell Book One by LABarnes

In life, we are plagued by the uncertainty of an afterlife, and it is often expected that when we die, everything will suddenly make sense. But when a group of strangers, similar only in their time of death, find themselves in the afterlife, they are faced with more questions than ever before. Are they in Heaven or Hell? If they're in Heaven, why is there a Nazi wandering around? Why are there no children? If they are in Hell, what universal law did they break? Is there a way to repent and move on to a better eternity? At least one man seems to have some answers. Marcus, a Roman dead for 2,000 years, gains the group's trust by leading them through the perils of their new reality. But soon it becomes clear that Marcus is only telling them half the story.

Grim Reaper's Handmaiden [Grim Books:1] by Kuppuruchi

As a human, I've always wondered what's life after death. It's always there at the back of my mind. Will I ascend to heaven or will I get burnt in hell? I'm so immersed on the thought of it that I've never once questioned if angels or demons even exist. But even if I did, I won't have an absolute answer either way. The world we live in has so much more to it than what meets the eye. They're everywhere watching our every move, waiting for our last breath. And when our time comes he'll be there gladly to take us away. -- A/N: Regular release schedule: Once a week (Due to circumstances, I will be indefinitely updating.

Death's kiss by Sourabhi9

When Amelia woke up finally it felt like eternity. As she opened her heavy drawn eyelids, only darkness embraced her and raw smell of a chilly winter evening. She could feel a different taste on her lips... something bitter... something metallic.. pain. And then she realized she is dead!! Only two days ago she had everything... a wonderful family, a loving boyfriend and a job that pays off her rent and now....now she is, well, dead!! What happened? How did it happen? Who did this to her? So many questions yet no answers, just a dark truth prevailed. But she will not leave so easily. No, not until she gets her answers. She'll stay in this world as long as she has to... even if that means contacting the Grim Reaper himself!!

Noah (Obsessions in Overdrive #1) by MarcelinePierson

I've always had a feeling that I would die young. Ever since I started pondering on deaths door I've had this feeling. I could care less about the hell and heaven shenanigans, but death. I want it. The end of my life. I want to be in my suit, in my coffin, in the ground and my soul to be gone. I've been waiting for 16 years, yet no sign of death opening his door no matter how many times I ring his doorbell. Yeah, I enjoy thinking about my end. Especially at moments like this... *** #1 physical #1 cuteguys #1 addiction #2 self-esteem *** Started: 7 November 2022 Finished: 18 April 2024
