Ghost Light Novel Novels & Stories

“First, you tell me how the hell you are a half-ghost. That’s not even supposed to be possible. Then you can tell me what you need help with, and I will decide if I want to help.” “Ballsy, brave, and pretty. Aren’t you just the whole package? You will help me, Little Reaper. Your damn coven owes me, and you owe me for trying to reap my soul when I’m not actually dead. I’m half-ghost because Life granted my father the ability to have a child in the afterlife. He worshiped her, and when he got sick and was dying, he asked her to grant his dying wish, to give him the chance to have a child. So, she did. Life loves to stick it to Death when she can. Does that answer your question?”

I sidestep the one that lunges at me, slicing into its neck with a painless, finishing blow. Thick, violet blood stains the snow. "Noel." He's looking at me now. "Why are you here?" And suddenly it all seems so pointless. We'd taken care of these Ghosts so easily, their bodies now motionless on the snow-covered ground. My hands fidget on the hilt of my knife. "Because....I thought—" Then I see it. A fifth Ghost, behind Ezra. Its teeth are bared, body already set to lunge. A fifth.

Lyra asked, her obsidian blade appearing in a flurry of violet sparks. The Shadow-Heir didn't answer with words. He raised the rusted scalpel, and the air around him turned into "Grey Static." He was a "Narrative Ghost," a version of Kaelen that would have existed if Lyra had never found the Shadow Claws, if the silver-poison had been allowed to finish its work.

Like the air itself was holding its breath.

I began to chant as I felt the blood of Ares mixing with my own until I could feel his power coursing through my veins. I lift my hand and outstretched it until my long black fingernail was technically touching the barrier around the clearing. I watch as the tip of my nails began to bend until it melt. I smirked before retracting my hand. "Ester darling, I see you are not happy that I am visiting you today." I spoke and summoned one of my crows. This one name was Ghost, he had a liking for lost souls that lingered on earth.He could spot them quickly, something I have used him for occasionally when I want to suck some of the souls power. There is nothing more delicious than a wandering soul.

Snow started falling—hard and fast. I stood there on the curb, freezing, shaking. Three hours in, my phone died. Sonia never came. Before the screen went black, one last thing flashed—Pierre's post. A selfie. Him and Sonia in front of some car, her face turned halfway. Caption: [Under the same snow, our hair turns white. Close enough to growing old together, right?] In the dead glass, my reflection stared back—smiling. Not bitter. Just done. The hundredth promise, traded for a concert and a boy toy.

They were my only hope, and I didn't know how long I had before Gaius ruined everything I had worked for. As I drifted through the thicket, a faint light suddenly caught my attention. It looked like a ray of sunlight at first, but soon, it materialized enough for me to see that it was a glow from the newly departed spirit of an older-looking man. I had seen a few of those already, and all of them were completely snobby, probably because they weren't quite sure whether I was dead or alive. The energy from the ghost seemed positive, so I slowly began to approach him.

Instead, he poured another glass. “Drink,” Ghost muttered, his voice rough. “Before I start thinking too much.” Luca’s smile flickered, soft, almost grateful. He took the glass and raised it. “To old ghosts?” “To staying alive long enough to bury them,” Ghost replied. They clinked glasses and drank. The whiskey burned on the way down, sweet and fierce. Luca leaned back against the wall, exhaling slow. Ghost sat beside him on the edge of the bed, shoulders barely touching, both of them staring at nothing for a while.

This feels lighter, automatic—like stepping where the ground has already been mapped. They call me Ghost. It simplifies things. Ghosts don’t leave witnesses. Or questions. Or pieces of themselves behind. Conversation thins as I pass. People shift their feet. I registered the looks without meeting them. Curiosity from the younger ones. Calculation from the handlers. And something closer to superstition from everyone else. I am twenty-two years old. I’ve been killing since I was fourteen. The numbers don’t settle into pride or shame. They sit like inventory. A medic steps aside as I pass. His eyes drop to the insignia stitched inside my collar—black thread on gray. Ghost-class comes without ra

Even though the books the two of them were holding did not match the alphabetical order on the shelf. Ria rolled her eyes and laughed inwardly. Correct. There must be a lot of ghosts in this library. Ghost that looked like a Loren… ** In the afternoon, Ria had returned home. Now she was calmer because she had got some references about what she was looking for. Based on the research she had done in books and the internet, Ria drew a conclusion. Ghost is the energy from the memory that left behind. This is supported by the fact that she dreamed about that figure when he was still alive and living in this house.
