Death bows to no man. The strongest of any man or any woman, Death could never be beaten or outsmarted because as the grim reaper he was the personification of death itself. Yet he protected her, fought for her, and never asked for a single affection in return. That is, that's how it was until Death was ordered to return her to the mortal realm. Now, Asena Black is in the middle of a coven's bloody civil war for the curse that will make her the next Grim Reaper. But if she ascends, she will take Death's place, and what of his fate? Told from the perspective of a hero and a traitor.

Hall of Games [ REWRITE ] | The Varya Chronicles #1
MISTBORN x GAME OF THRONES *Wattpad YA profile Featured story* If Cadence had said no to a blood spirit, the noble family she worked for would still be alive. Her brother wouldn't be conscripted into the Hall of Games. She wouldn't have to follow him and be a soldier for the rest of her life. Her Papa would still have his head. A close brush with death awakens her necromancy abilities, and she becomes hell-bent on resurrecting her father. However, necromancy is forbidden, and if her secret is exposed, the Hall of Games will execute her. As her new powers demand more than her body can ever give, it will ultimately push her humanity to its limits-if saving her father doesn't destroy her first.

Reaper's Pet
When Willow made a deal with a reaper to save her little brother, she never expected to end up as one's bloodbag. Or, as Jack likes to call her, 𝙋𝙚𝙩. Join Willow on her journey as she discovers the hidden supernatural world that has been right under her nose for longer than she even remembers. One where love is forbidden and can get you killed. And pray to Death for her soul, because 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯, she's gonna need it. "I love you," Jack smiled. They looked at each other for what felt like a decade. "...No. No you don't." Willow rolled her eyes. "It seemed like the part of our fight where I should say it," he smirked, only making her anger rise. "Why are you doing this?" His expression faltered for a second as he heard the fear in her voice. "Treating me like this? Do you hate me or something? Or do you just not care if I live or die?" His eyes widened briefly before he shook his head. "I don't hate you, or want you to die. But I can't like you either. Humans live a short life, I live forever." He paused, taking a breath. "I can't let myself get attached to someone that will just die on me, or put you in danger," Jack sighed, scratching his neck. Something in his voice made Willow believe this wasn't his words, but rather, words he had been told. "𝑨 𝒑𝒊𝒆𝒄𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒂𝒅𝒗𝒊𝒄𝒆." 𝑺𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒍. "𝑰𝒇 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒕𝒉," 𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒊𝒅, 𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅 𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒔𝒆, "𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒖𝒎𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒉𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒆𝒆𝒕𝒉."
