April died in a car accident. Now she's Death.

- ☠︎ -

When April Gryna was four years old she made a deal with Death to save her dying, sick sister's life. Fourteen years later she thinks it was an elaborate dream, but the nightmare is coming back to haunt her in the form of a car accident on her eighteenth birthday. It turns out this was the agreement; in order for her sister's life to be spared, April must become the new death - the New God of the Underworld and force of nature.

But April is sure she isn't right for the job - the shy, peacekeeping young woman can't bear the thought of submitting and overviewing death, never mind the strange prejudice because April is the first woman Goddess of Death. Now on a quest to find Xothnto Mortem - the real God of Death that had gone missing five hundred thousand years ago, April's time is running out. Something is hunting her - something that doesn't want her as Queen of the Underworld anymore than she and will stop at nothing to kill her soul.

Hades by _caitlinemma

Evie Autumn, like almost every other nineteen year old was just your average, unassuming, everyday girl. She attended university, she had that one quirk that everyone thinks is weird (an obsession with Greek mythology, in case you were wondering) and she had to stop herself from repeatedly smacking her best friend daily for his naycare, partying ways. Basically, her life couldn't be anymore normal if she tried. But then her normal world is shattered when that same best friend is killed right before her very eyes, and a mysterious stranger approaches her and introduces himself as Hades, God of the Underworld. Hades offers Evie a deal; he'll let her best friend live if she agrees to return with him to the Underworld as his very own modern-day Persephone. Suddenly Evie's thrust into a world where gods are real and life after death is all too possible; and to top it all off, she makes a deal to live with the devil for six months in exchange for her best friend's life. Life couldn't get any less normal, right? HADES SERIES #1 [Ranked #28 in Teen Fiction on 20.05.16] [Hit 1 million on 18.10.17]

And of course, lots and lots of chaos and magic. If this sounds interesting, check this story out. You will meet the Blood Witch, forced to kill for the bloodthirsty gods who have taken her captive. You'll meet the warlocks who are kind, not evil, and all want to protect their friends and family. You'll be faced with the gods of this world, who are all very twisted and demented, a bit more evil than you'd think originally.

Hades - God of the Underworld by rasddgg

Maybe he wasn't the brute she thought he was after all. Nobody had noticed that she had been freezing in her dress, the marble under her bare feet didn't help anything either. She tried her best to hide it in fear of burdening anybody. Something deep down throbbed in the pit of her stomach, touched by his attention and action. "Thank you." She whispered, still staring into his eyes. The was a slight pause as they stared into each others eyes. "Damn it." He cursed and in one step, she was in his arms, pressed against the cold metal of his armour. An arm went around her waist and gripped the fabric on her dress, the other travelled behind her neck before sinking into her hair. He gripped it gently and tugged, forcing her head back as he claimed her mouth with his. ------------------- In which a girl finds out that her Prince Charming isn't a Prince Charming after all. He's actually the God of the Underworld. -------------------- ⚠WARNING⚠ This book contains graphic scenes of sex and is not suitable for those weak hearted and uncorrupted, those of us who enjoy a good smut - enjoy!

But as the Withering spreads and the darkness closes in, Morria will have to decide: Can she embrace her true nature and rise to the challenge of her fate, or will the shadow of the Withered consume her and all that lie in it's path?

Hades |Lesbian Version| by Svetaivanova

| A Wattpad Featured Story | Hades was well-cast to rule over the land of the dead. But what if Hades, the fearsome monarch of the Underworld was, in fact, a goddess? Everyone called her, 'Lord of the Dead' out of mockery since she prefers the company of women. She was considered an isolated and violent immortal, who loathed change and was easily given to a slow black rage like no others. But then everything changed when the dark goddess met the daughter of Demeter, Persephone. Now the tale of Hades and Persephone will be retold with a sprinkle of twists and turns. |LGBT content.
