SNEAK PEEK
"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."
