Over the next three days, my life transformed into a frantic, high-octane blur of non-stop logistics, frantic phone calls, and high-stakes purchasing.

Naturally, walking around in high-end business attire and vanishing for twelve hours a day triggered my mother’s inner detective radar.

"Are you sure about this new part-time job, Ade?" Mom asked one morning, leaning against the kitchen counter with a worried frown as I adjusted my blazer in the hallway mirror.

    My father was a senior police officer. When the infected started tearing people apart in the streets in an hour, his precinct would be ground zero for emergency dispatches. He was going to walk straight into the slaughterhouse."Maybe it really is just a drill, Miss Spears," Steve murmured softly from beside me. But when I turned to look at him, his blue eyes were grim, dark, and utterly devoid of conviction. He didn't believe his own words for a second."Trust me... it's not," I choked out, wiping tears from my cheeks.Panicking about my Queens warehouse, I pulled up the security app on my phone and rang my head supervisor, Artie."Artie! Look at me!" I commanded, my voice trembling. "I need

    Steve knew something was coming, he knew about a biological collapse, air filtration, and survival, but he didn't know the exact horrific details.Unlike the web novels I used to skim, I didn't get gifted a handy floating System overlay when I regressed. I had no magical status screens, no cheat codes, and no game guide.All I had was my weird, stomach-churning digestion superpower and the brutal, real-life trauma of having lived through the first six months of the apocalypse.My knowledge was limited to what I had personally witnessed before my death, but compared to him? I was a walking cheat code."You talk about spores and grey skies," I said softly, crossing my arms over my charcoal suit, watching the color slowly shift in his eyes. "But you have no idea what those spores actually do to a human body once they inhale them, do you?"He was about to answer when the shrill, nerve-shredding screech of the National Emergency Broadcast blared simultaneously from every device in the vehi

    An hour later…The heavy steel side door of the Queens facility hummed quietly as Marcus bypassed the electronic lock with a master override key. I stepped into the vast, cavernous warehouse, my polished Oxford shoes echoing against the sealed concrete floor.The air inside smelled faintly of ozone, fresh engine grease, and dried grain. “What the hell is this place?”It was like a fortress, not the same grade as my fortress under the mountain but this one…it's enough to survive a family.I stopped in my tracks, my eyes taking in the sheer, staggering scale of what lay before me.Towering rows of industrial steel shelving stretched nearly thirty feet toward the ceiling, stacked end-to-end with nitrogen-sealed Mylar drums, pallets of canned goods, water purification crates, and commercial solar arrays.In the far corner sat four industrial dual-fuel generators, quiet for now, alongside sealed fuel bladders capable of holding thousands of gallons of gasoline.Near the loading bay, two ar

    Two days later, the first tactical shipments arrived at my secured warehouse hidden inside crates labeled Industrial Hardware:Small Arms: Twelve semi-automatic 9mm handguns with over 20,000 rounds of hollow-point ammunition.Long Range & Defense: Four tactical carbine rifles, two high-caliber bolt-action rifles with thermal scopes, and 15,000 rounds of 5.56mm and .308 NATO ammunition.Tactical Gear: Kevlar body armor vests, Level IV ballistic plates, night-vision goggles, combat knives, two-way encrypted radios, and solar-powered charging stations.Every evening, I would return home, swap my crisp charcoal suit back into my comfortable pajamas, and sit at the dinner table with my mom and TJ.When Mom asked why I was dressing up so nicely every morning, I told her I had landed a high-paying executive assistant gig for a private real estate firm that required strict corporate attire.TJ was too busy grinding ranked video games to care, and Mom was just proud to see me working hard.

Mom asked one morning, leaning against the kitchen counter with a worried frown as I adjusted my blazer in the hallway mirror."You’ve been running yourself ragged. You need to rest,okay? Don't burn yourself out.""Mom, I'm totally fine," I said, flashing her a reassuring grin before reaching into my designer tote and pulling out a crisp stack of hundred-dollar bills.I slid two thousand dollars straight into her hand. "In fact, take this. Go buy some top-grade groceries, get the good cuts of beef, the fresh organic fruit, stock the freezer."Mom gasped, her eyes going wide as she stared at the cash like it was a live grenade. "Adelle! Where on earth did

    “We agreed, no questions, right?” He quickly unlatched the second and third crates, inspecting the solid gold computer peripherals, the ruby-embedded porcelain, and the glittering array of upgraded childhood trinkets. Each item possessed that same pristine, unearthly luster, the unmistakable signature of my gastric superpower."How much?" I asked, leaning against the seat with my arms crossed, trying my absolute best to act like a seasoned black-market mogul instead of a broke twenty-year-old whose heart was pounding out of her chest. "Are you going to buy it all, Big Bucks, or do I need to find another shady billionaire?"Steve snapped the lid shut, turning around to face me. The stunned disbelief on his sharp face had vanished, replaced by a dark, intense glow in his eyes, a look of absolute, relentless ambition."There is no one else on this planet who can afford what you hold in these crates, Miss Spears," Steve said, his voice smooth as velvet as he reached into his inner suit
