Reaper.
The name dreaded by all. Humans and Gifted alike. A skilled hunter Reaper uses his gift mastery over shadows to hunt his targets. The only thing holding him back, his ties to a mysterious organization of Gifted.
His latest target, a young woman with no idea who or what she is. His goal recruit or kill her. The only problem, she is the Destroyer, and he can't bring himself to harm her.
Taking her with him as he flees the deadly organization is a risky move but his only option if he wants to keep her safe. When you have nowhere left to run and nowhere left to hide, can love save you?
In this story Reaper is known by three names. The name given to him by the shadows, Sarval. The name given to him by his gift, Shadow. And the name given to him by the warriors who raised him, Reaper.
Be warned however, I am creating a fictional world. So none of what takes place here is true. The inspiration, is solely what takes place in the deepest, darkest parts of my mind.

My Soul to Reap (Archived)
https://www.wattpad.com/story/59989002-my-soul-to-reap This should be considered a "first draft" kept for posterity. Please see the above link for an updated, edited version. "Help me raise some hell, Cammie, and you can get your soul back." Grim reapers are skeletal figures in black robes. That's what they are in movies, anyways. But in real life, they used to be people. Every supernatural creature knows to stay out of their way, because you don't mess with death. Or, at least they used to. Cammie isn't anything other than an ordinary girl who makes a mistake at a party. But her death leads to her meeting one of the reapers upset with the current state of affairs, and her life instantly gets more dangerous. While she's trailing behind this eccentric girl who claims to own her soul, she meets the very vampire that killed her- and he's not the only one who's taken an interest in her. The supernatural world is gearing up for war, and Cammie is one of the only ones with the chance to choose what side she wants to be on. Or, so she thinks.Complete
