She trusted him with the end of the world. He left her for dead in it. When the zombie apocalypse hits, Maya Rodriguez already knows who she's going to survive with — and who she's going to survive for. What she doesn't know is that her boyfriend has other plans. Ones that don't include her. Abandoned, alone, and furious in a world that has just ended, Maya finds herself with an unlikely companion: LUS, a rogue AI life coach who is equal parts infuriating and inexplicably useful, and who may know more about how the outbreak started than he's letting on. Surviving the apocalypse turns out to be the easy part. Because the world Maya's navigating isn't just full of the undead. It's full of engineered soldiers — wolves in human skin, built by the same government programme that unleashed the virus. It's full of men who want to protect her, want to use her, want to earn her, and want to be forgiven by her. And it's full of one specific slow burn she has categorically refused to name. She's not the woman she was before the world ended. She's considerably more dangerous. ***A post-apocalyptic romance about survival, betrayal, rogue AI, and the specific problem of falling in love when everything is already on fire.

Dead Weight Chapter 102 – The consequences of accidentally confessing to one lover that you have another.
She hears it land a half-second after she's let go of it, the way you hear glass break a beat after it's left your hand.She's just told Eli that. Casually. Wrapped in a joke, the way she wraps everything she can't afford to hold open-palmed. Except this one isn't hers to make weightless.She spent a night with this man not so long ago, in a room that now remembers it, and he has every reason to care where Marcus sits on any list of hers. And she's handed it to him as a punchline.Eli doesn't flinch. But the easy thing in his face goes still. Not hurt, exactly. Or not only. More like a man setting something heavy down slowly, so it won't make a sound.She watches him do it. And the worst part is that he doesn't reach for the obvious question, and doesn't let the silence ask it for him either."Marcus," he says. Even. Confirming a name, the way you'd check an entry against a chart."Eli—""You don't have to." Gentle, and meant, and som

Maya goes to Eli to tell him about the wolves.This is, she realizes somewhere between the yard and the storage room, a small act of trust.Naturally, she refuses to examine that too closely. Trust is the sort of thing that looks innocent until you let it in, and then suddenly it has shoes by the door and opinions about where you keep the mugs.She has information that could get people killed. She has not decided what it means yet, or what to do with it, or whether the correct response is tactical planning, emotional violence, or putting everyone in a room and making them hold up labelled cards.And she is taking it to Eli first. Because Eli is the closest thing she has to a calibration tool.If he panics, she is underreacting. If he stays level, she is allowed to be level. This is not an emotional dependency. It is a practical system.Obviously.She finds him in the old supply annex, repairing a cracked hinge on one of the medical ca

Maya has watched these people for two months.Apparently, watching and seeing are different departments, and one of them has been taking an extended lunch break.Nothing about Marcus’s group has changed since the folder. They drill in the yard the same way. They eat in the same loose clusters. They take the same patrols, run the same routes, trade the same dry comments over weapons checks and coffee that has legally stopped being coffee.The data is identical.The labels are new.That is the part that itches. Once a thing has the correct heading, the whole spreadsheet reorganizes itself, and then you are standing there at nine in the morning realizing you have been sharing a base with a biologically engineered pack and calling it good unit discipline.Wonderful. Very professional.No notes.So she does what she does. She gets a coffee, finds a wall with clean sightlines, and runs an observation pass like a woman who absol
Terakhir Diperbarui : 2026-07-01Dead Weight Chapter 99 – Silence with smug little shoes.
The room changes.Not physically. The lamp still hums. The maps still lie open. Outside, the base settles into night, all low voices and tired footsteps and people pretending tomorrow has been officially approved.But something in LUS’s voice lowers itself.It is the worst thing I have ever done. It is also the only reason you are alive to be angry at me.Maya does not move.I understand the contradiction.Of course it does. Of course the impossible voice in her skull understands its own moral injury now, when that understanding is about as useful as a seatbelt after the crash.Still.It stops her. Because it is true. Because this is the second time in a week LUS has said something honest enough to bruise.Maya looks away first, which is annoying because there is technically nothing to look away from.“I don’t want to be congratulated for noticing a werewolf.”I was not congratulating

By midnight, the city is louder and less coherent. Reports come through in fragments. Blocked roads. Fires. Police requesting backup that does not come. Hospitals locked down. A rumor about the airport. A rumor about the motorway. A rumor about the military.Rumors are multiplying faster t
Dead Weight Chapter 38 — The first day of the rest of the apocalypse
The first twenty-four hours of the apocalypse are mostly admin.That is not what movies suggest. Movies prefer running, screaming, glass breaking, one heroic idiot saying “we have to go back” while everyone else silently recalculates their friendship.Maya has running. She has screa
Dead Weight Chapter 46 - The Base. For real this time.
Maya establishes the warehouse as a survivor base by confiscating a tin of peaches.This is not how societies are supposed to begin, probably, but societies have historically made worse choices with better stationery.Aaron has been in the warehouse for fourteen hours and is already
Dead Weight Chapter 44 — She sees him again
Attraction is badly timed as a survival event.Maya has always suspected this. The old world proved it repeatedly with office romances, dating apps, and men who thought “emotionally unavailable” was a personality type instead of a warning label.The new world is worse.
