Excerpt
.
“Forget everything you know about grim reapers, Ophelia. Humans have it wrong. It’s easier to believe in angels and demons, than to see what’s right in front of you. Who wants to believe the undead walk among us with beating hearts? It would frighten humans. It would probably send many to their graves faster,” Edon said.

Excerpt

                 “The scroll chose you. For whatever reason, she’s your reap.”

                “Well, that sucks.” Leila chewed her  bottom lip. “If I don’t do it?”

                Edon hesitated before he said, “Her  soul will rot inside her body. Do you have any idea what that’s like? She’ll be  a living corpse, a shell of a person. She won’t feel anything including love. We  as reapers, the undead, feel more than she ever will alive.”

                Leila swallowed the lump in her  throat. “How do you know that?”

                “Because I’ve seen what it does to a  person,” Edon said. “That little girl deserves better.”
