After life comes AfterLife™.
AfterLife has been a flourishing enterprise for a while now; discovered and conquered years ago, the safely maintained space in the ether is for souls to congregate once their fleshy bodies have expired. It's really quite brilliant. A world of its own, unaffected by the land of the living but still easily accessible if you take a walk into oncoming traffic. Afterlife is by the people, for the people.
And Death is pretty pissed about it.
Out of a job and invisible to those who no longer accept their passing as final, Death rolls between bars and wills himself drunk enough to forget the fact he's now a waste of space. Shame he doesn't have a body to absorb the alcohol. That's the thing with being an entity isn't it? Just don't try and tell him that.
Cue Steven. A thirty year old man reasonably well acquainted with Death. So he can see him just fine. And now he's calling in a favour.
Stuck with eachother in the beyond, they make a plan and a deal: Death helps Steven find his friend who came to Afterlife in search of The Last Exit, and Steven helps Death get his job back.
What could possibly go wrong?

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.

The Grim Reaper's Girl
This is a story about the Grim Reaper and the souls he delivers. The Grim Reaper delivers souls from earth to what most comprehend as the 'afterlife'. When there is the occasional resistance from unwilling souls, he'll retrieve an old memory or feeling of theirs and let them experience it again. It usually works to persuade them to leave the world - souls who had suicidal thoughts in the past, those who lost loved ones and didn't want to continue living without them, and those who did something wrong and felt huge crushing guilt. Until he met a soul who never felt like she wanted to die before.Complete

Ok, Who Got Bitten?
Right now, I'm squatting in a pile of human waste, desperately trying to get a signal on my phone. My friends are watching me reluctantly, their faces stained with blood and what I only hope is dirt. The light from my phone is illuminating their faces, casting light on the looks of horror that I have come to know all too well. My best friend is cradling her left arm, bandaged with a torn piece of cloth in hopes of stopping the blood flow. My sister can barely walk, and I think her hand is broken. She looks on the verge of tears. As we calm down, catching our breaths, I give up looking at my phone. I slowly turn to them, my own face crusted with blood. I look at each of them, one by one. "Ok, who got bitten?"Complete
Death's Apprentice
*Completed* He wasn't an angel, he wasn't a saint, so why was he standing in front of Ardia, and why did he know her name? Ardia was a normal girl, living life as any seventeen year old would, until she died. Wandering through the streets of the city she once called home, someone starts following her. The mysterious stranger, a man known as Death, makes her an offer she can't turn down, quite literally. Forced to become Death's Apprentice, Ardia finds herself trapped in a world of angels, demons, and everything in between. Things aren't bad, they aren't great either, until she discovers that being part of Death's realm comes with a whole slew of problems: the devil breaking in, grudges between Death and the archangels, the possibility of platypus sitting, and, of course, reaping the souls of her fellow mortals. Something complicated further when Death's scythe is stolen. Highest ranking: #1 in angels and demons Word count: 80,000Complete
Curiosity
I want to die. No, not that, I want to feel the sensation of death. I want to know what it's like for after death. I've always been intrigued by it ever since I was five. I watched a movie where a kid can see dead people and the person helping him is already gone. Is that's what's it's like? Do you not know if you're dead or not? My best friend Marnie committed suicide last week and today was her funeral. As I am sad, I'm also jealous. She knows what it's like to be dead, she can answer all of our questions, yet she can't because she is gone forever. Does it hurt more after the death, or does the death hurt the most and it's all rainbows and butterflies after. I'm not depressed, nor am I suicidal. I don't think I've ever been, I thought I was just thinking like everyone else does. Marnie told me I go too deep, she said as deep as an ocean and I've tried to swim to the bottom. I don't mean to be deep, I'm just curious.Complete![Grim Reaper's Handmaiden [Grim Books:1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/221711565-256-k439281.jpg)
Grim Reaper's Handmaiden [Grim Books:1]
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.
