Reborn Among The Dead, The Zombies Apocalypse

Reborn Among The Dead, The Zombies Apocalypse

He killed me once. This time, I’ll watch him lose everything. Thirty days before the apocalypse, Maya Vance was betrayed by the man she loved, abandoned to a pack of infected beasts, and left to die. But death gives her something she never expected—a second chance. Maya wakes up thirty days in the past with every memory intact, a mysterious spatial dimension at her command, and one devastating secret: she is pregnant. This time, she won't waste a single day. With her $120 million inheritance, Maya secretly builds an impenetrable sanctuary and fills her hidden space with everything she needs to survive the coming apocalypse. While Adrian desperately clings to the woman he once controlled, Maya begins dismantling his luxurious life piece by piece. But Adrian's world becomes even more chaotic when he discovers that Vanessa—the woman he thought he could possess—has never loved him. Her heart belongs to another man, and she'd die for him. As Adrian's obsession turns dangerous, the countdown to the apocalypse reaches zero. Then Maya discovers the truth about Serum-9. The apocalypse wasn't an accident. And the people responsible may be closer to her than she ever imagined. When Adrian and his infected family finally come crawling to Maya's fortress for salvation, will she open the gates and save the people who betrayed her? Or will she finally let them face the fate they once intended for her? And when the world falls apart, can Maya protect her unborn child—and survive the monsters waiting outside?

Chapter: Chapter 77: The Traitor's Gambit
Elena hadn't slept in thirty-six hours.She sat in her guest quarters, the lights off, the only illumination coming from the faint glow of her encrypted radio. Her hands were shaking. She couldn't stop them.The drone attacks had shattered something in her. She'd heard the explosions, felt the vibrations through the concrete walls, listened to the distant shouts and gunfire. She'd seen the thermal feeds—men dying, blood spraying, bodies torn apart by shrapnel.And she knew Maya was doing it.Not just defending. Hunting. Killing with cold, mechanical precision.Elena had been in rooms with dangerous people before. She'd negotiated with criminals, manipulated executives, and survived corporate wars. But Maya Vance was different. Maya wasn't just dangerous. She was inevitable.And Elena was trapped inside her fortress.She'd been thinking about it for hours. Running the calculations. Weighing the odds.The Wolves had twenty-three men. They had heavy weapons. They had the ravine blocked. Th

Chapter: Chapter 76: The Hunted
Maya stood in the drone launch bay beneath the manor's roof, the hum of the electric motors vibrating through the concrete floor.Three tactical quadcopters sat on the launch pads, their rotors folded, their payloads armed. Each drone carried two modified fragmentation grenades, rigged with remote detonators and motion sensors. Maya had spent the last hour programming their flight patterns, mapping the terrain, calculating the exact coordinates of The Wolves' positions.She wasn't going to attack them directly. Not yet.She was going to make them afraid.Maya picked up the control tablet and initiated the launch sequence. The roof panels slid open with a soft hydraulic hiss, and the drones lifted off in perfect formation, their electric motors nearly silent, their dark bodies blending into the grey sky.She guided them manually for the first hundred feet, then switched to autonomous mode. The drones spread out, each one heading for a different target.Drone One was heading for Positio

Maya picked up the radio.Her voice was calm, clear, carrying no emotion whatsoever."Cross. This is Maya Vance. The answer is no."Silence on the other end. Then Cross's voice, low and dangerous. "You're making a mistake, Vance.""No," Maya said. "I'm not. You came to my home. You threatened my child. You don't get to make demands. You don't get to negotiate. You get to leave."Another pause. Then a short, humorless laugh. "We're not leaving, Vance. Not without what we came for.""Then you'll die here," Maya said. "Like the last group. Like the group before that."She set the radio down and turned to the monitors.The Wolves didn't move. They didn't charge. They didn't panic.They dug in.Over the next four hours, Maya watched through the drone feeds as Cross orchestrated a methodical, professional siege.They didn't attack the walls. They didn't try to breach the gate. Instead, they established three fortified positions in a semicircle around the base of Blackwood Hill, each one covering

Chapter: Chapter 74: The Demand
The perimeter alarm didn't wail. It chimed.Maya was in the hydroponics bay, her hands deep in the soil of a dwarf pepper plant, when the soft, digital tone echoed through the humid air. She paused, her fingers still buried in the dark earth, and listened.A second chime. Then a third.Sector breach alert. Outer perimeter.Maya pulled her hands from the soil and wiped them on her tactical pants. She walked to the command center with measured, unhurried steps, her mind already shifting into tactical mode.The main monitor wall flickered to life as she approached, displaying the external camera feeds. The optical cameras showed the access road, and Maya's green eyes narrowed.They were back.The Wolves.A convoy of six vehicles rumbled up the access road—two pickup trucks, a modified SUV with a steel plate welded to the front, and three ATVs. They moved in a loose formation, stopping about two hundred yards from the main gate, just outside the effective range of Maya's automated turrets.Ma

Chapter: Chapter 73:the garden in the void
The upgrade came without warning.Maya was in the hydroponics bay, checking the pH levels of the nutrient reservoir, when she felt it—a sudden, sharp pulse at the base of her skull, different from the familiar burn of accessing her spatial dimension. This was deeper, more fundamental, like the architecture of the space itself was shifting.She closed her eyes, reaching into the dimension, and her breath caught.The infinite warehouse had changed.The endless rows of stored supplies were still there—food, weapons, medical supplies, fuel, everything she'd absorbed over the past months. But now, at the far edge of the space, there was something new. A section of the dimension had transformed into something else entirely.Maya expanded her awareness, exploring the new area.It was a field. Not a metaphorical field, but an actual, physical expanse of rich, dark soil, maybe half an acre in size. The soil was perfect—loamy, well-aerated, teeming with beneficial microorganisms. Above it, the d

Chapter: Chapter 72:the fixers deal
Elena found the opportunity in the static.She'd been monitoring the shortwave radio bands for three days, not looking for anything specific, just cataloging the remnants of civilization. Most of it was noise—desperate survivors calling out to dead loved ones, automated emergency broadcasts looping into the void, the occasional burst of encrypted military chatter she couldn't crack.But on day three, she caught a fragment."...tomatoes... got fifty pounds... need antibiotics... repeat, need antibiotics…"The signal was weak, bouncing off the mountains, but Elena caught the coordinates. A survivor camp, maybe twenty miles south, in the foothills beyond the city's dead zone. They had food. They needed medicine.Elena didn't act immediately. She'd learned her lesson. Instead, she wrote it down in her notebook, cross-referenced it with the drone maps, and waited for the right moment.That moment came during the morning briefing.Maya sat at the head of the console table, Gideon to her right

Reborn Before Doomsday: The Ex-Military Wife’s Revenge

Reborn Before Doomsday: The Ex-Military Wife’s Revenge

The last thing I felt was rotting teeth tearing through my throat. The last thing I heard was my husband’s laughter as he drove away in my armored truck—leaving me to the zombie horde so his mistress and their bastard son could live. I died a fool. A highly trained, lethal ex-military operative who abandoned her instincts for a fake domestic dream, only to be betrayed by the very family she sacrificed everything to protect. Then I opened my eyes. Sixty days before the outbreak. But this time, something is different. The virus is mutating faster. The government is hiding the truth. The dead aren't just rising—they're evolving. And I don't have sixty days anymore. So I’ll do what I should have done the first time. Take my nine-figure inheritance. Cut off my parasitic in-laws. Turn a massive industrial warehouse into an impenetrable fortress. I won't save the people who betrayed me. I won't play the devoted wife. And I certainly won't die for anyone again. Then Cole appears. A ruthless ex-military operative with instincts as deadly as mine—and a disturbing knowledge of the government's bio-containment cover-up. And when the people who abandoned me come crawling back for protection… Will I have the strength to turn them away? Or will I finally pull the trigger on the family that left me to die?

Chapter: Chapter 100
The command center was a cacophony of controlled, kinetic energy. Tyler’s boots echoed against the steel grating as he hauled the last of the water purification tablets down the maintenance shaft. Maya was in the medical bay, her movements a blur of ruthless efficiency as she stripped the shelves, prioritizing trauma kits, antibiotics, and burn salves. The air was thick with the smell of ozone, sweat, and the sharp, chemical tang of the C4 Cole was carefully staging in the sub-basement.Eighteen hours. That was all we had before the sky turned to fire and the United States military tried to erase the Seattle metropolitan grid from the map. I stood in the center of the armory, watching the team work. My mind was a whirlwind of tactical calculus, calculating blast radii, structural integrity, and oxygen reserves. But beneath the cold, mechanical planning, something else was happening. A profound, incandescent sense of peace.In my first life, a broadcast like that would have broken me

The quiet on the roof lasted exactly four more minutes. I was still leaning against Cole, the warmth of his body seeping through my thermal jacket, when the harsh, static-laced squawk of my encrypted tactical radio shattered the silence. It was clipped to the inside of my vest, tuned to a heavily encrypted military-band frequency I hadn’t heard broadcast on in three weeks. The sound was ugly—a grating, digital screech that cut through the howl of the wind like a knife. Cole instantly tensed, his hand dropping to the sidearm at his hip. "That's not local," he said, his voice tight. "No," I replied, already pulling the radio from my vest. The screen was glowing a faint, sickly green in the dark. "That's NORAD command band. Encrypted, but Jaxie’s old decryption algorithms are still running in the background.""Let's get inside," Cole said, his breath pluming in the freezing air. "If Command Actual is broadcasting on the open, it’s either a glitch or a doomsday protocol."We didn't wal

Chapter: Chapter 98
The storm had finally broken. Not completely, but the howling, apocalyptic wind had died down to a steady, biting breeze. The sky above the industrial district was a bruised, deep purple, clearing just enough to reveal a scattering of cold, distant stars. I needed to get out of the warehouse. The air inside was too thick. It was heavy with the smell of ozone, welder's smoke, and the lingering, coppery tang of blood that no amount of bleach would ever fully scrub from the concrete. I needed the cold. I needed the quiet. I needed to look at the world I had conquered and make sure it was actually real.I climbed the exterior ladder to the roof. The metal was freezing through my gloves, but I didn't care. I walked to the parapet and looked out over the Vance Settlement.The district was a graveyard of ice. The frozen husks of the ice-zombies stood like macabre statues in the streets, caught mid-stride, their crystalline armor gleaming faintly in the moonlight. The breached eastern wal

Chapter: Chapter 97
We held the inaugural meeting of the Vance Settlement in the commercial kitchen. It felt right. The kitchen was the heart of the warehouse. It was where the air smelled of rosemary and roasted garlic instead of cordite and copper. It was where the stainless-steel island gleamed under the warm LED lights, a stark contrast to the frozen, blood-stained concrete of the loading bay. I stood at the head of the island, a pot of fresh coffee steaming on the induction burner. The four of us were gathered around it. Maya sat on a stool, her arm freshly re-bandaged, a mug of tea cradled in her good hand. Cole leaned against the counter, his plate carrier discarded, wearing just a dark thermal shirt that clung to the hard lines of his chest. His flint-gray eyes were soft, tracking my every movement. Tyler sat at the far end, looking younger than his twenty years, but his hands were steady as he held his mug. We were battered. We were bruised. We were running on adrenaline and exhaustion. But

Chapter: Chapter 96
The smell of the aftermath was a distinct, ugly cocktail. It was the sharp, metallic tang of vaporized blood, the acrid bite of spent cordite, and the heavy, industrial stench of the arc welder Cole had used to seal the eastern breach. Beneath it all lay the faint, sweet rot of the ice-zombies thawing just outside the perimeter walls. I stood in the center of the loading bay, a mug of black coffee warming my bruised hands. The warehouse was quiet. Not the tense, coiled silence of a siege, but the deep, exhausted quiet of a survivor catching its breath. The internal temperature had climbed back to a steady sixty-five degrees. The CBRN scrubbers hummed their steady, reassuring rhythm. The diesel generators purred in the sub-basement. The fortress had been held. We had held.I walked slowly toward the main terminal in the command center, my boots crunching faintly on the residual debris that Tyler hadn’t yet swept up. Every muscle in my body ached. The spatial backlash from teleporti

Chapter: Chapter 95
The migraine was a physical entity, a rusted nail driven through my left temple. Maya's hands were steady as she cleaned the split skin on my cheekbone with an alcohol swab. The sting was sharp, grounding, pulling me back from the edge of the spatial void's backlash. "Hold still," she murmured, applying a butterfly closure. "You're lucky he didn't take your eye out.""I'm always lucky," I rasped, my voice sounding like it belonged to someone who'd been swallowing glass. Across the command center, Cole was already in his plate carrier, a heavy-duty arc welder strapped to his back. Tyler was beside him, hauling a massive, prefabricated steel plate we'd kept in reserve for exactly this kind of catastrophic breach. "Inner temp is down to forty-eight degrees and dropping," Cole reported, not looking back. "The CBRN scrubbers are working overtime, but the heat loss through that hole is massive. We need to seal it now.""Do it," I said, swinging my legs off the cot. My knees popped, and
