Remorse Family

The third time my fiancé, Jeffrey Lewis, shoves me into a horde of zombies, I stop struggling as I do for the first two times. Alison Sheppard leans against his chest with a pale face. "Jeff, I overused my powers just now. My blood sugar's low, and I'm craving some chocolate. I think the bag we had fell into the zombie horde." Without even looking back, Jeffrey raises a hand and pushes me forward. "Go get it, Juliet. Your protective shield ability keeps the zombies from noticing you anyway. You won't get hurt." My brother, Lucas Cox, looks at me anxiously and urges, "Why are you stalling? Hurry up! Alison is our savior. You should be willing to die for her!" The other survivors all nod in agreement. "How expected of a piece of trash. This is the only thing she's good for. Go pick it up already. Don't keep Ms. Sheppard waiting for her snack." As I listen to their cruel words, I feel my blood run cold. What they don't know is that I'm the one bound to the Savior System. For the past three years, the protective shield around this base has existed only because I exchange the Fondness points I've earned for it. And just moments ago, the system tells me something. [Host's Fondness points have dropped to zero. The protective shield will soon fail. Erasure countdown initiated!]

Chapter 1
[Juliet Cox's POV]Silently, I searched in the sea of zombies. After much effort, I finally snatched the last piece of chocolate from among the swarm of zombies. However, Alison Sheppard simply took a bite of it and flung it to the ground. She clasped her hands over her mouth and began coughing violently, so much so that she began tearing up."Jeff, I'm allergic to anything that contains hazelnut…" she said, grabbing onto Jeffrey Lewis' sleeve, her entire body shivering."Did Juliet do it on purpose? She wanted to kill me." The moment she said that, my brother, Lucas Cox, rushed at me. With a swing of his hand, he gave me a slap on my cheek so hard that I was slammed against the wall. "You vile woman! Alison's lightning barrier protects the entire base! How could you take something like this back when you know she's allergic to it?"Are you trying to have tens of thousands of people from the base buried alongside you?" Lucas roared while pointing a finger at me, his eyes fill

Chapter 2
[Juliet's POV]Deep into the night, I crouched on the city wall, handing energy crystals over like a machine.Alison waved her hand impatiently. "Hurry up. Quit dawdling. You're gonna drag everyone in this city down with you if you delay my progress with fortifying the walls." I remained silent as I handed another crystal to her. On the faint golden protective shield—visible only to me—the cracks spread wider and wider.All of a sudden, a ten-foot-tall mutant zombie thrust its arm right through the lightning and protective barrier. With an effortless slash with its sharp nails, it stumbled its way inside. Alison screamed, unleashing a bolt of lightning. Nonetheless, the lightning that struck the zombie left nothing but a faint mark."My power isn't working!" she shrieked, turning around to flee as her face turned white. When she turned, she bumped right into a guard, Andrew Greene, who had just rushed to the scene. Instinctively, she gave him a hard shove. "Hold it off fo

Chapter 3
[Juliet's POV]I curled up in a corner, my infected wound and fever sending shivers throughout my body.Not long after, the door flung open. Lucas stormed into the cell with Alison tagging along behind him. "Hand over the premium crystals!" "What crystals?" I asked, looking utterly perplexed. "Jules, you could have just told me if you wanted to use the crystals. You didn't have to steal them." As Alison uttered those words, she crouched and leaned toward me all of a sudden, waving a chocolate in her hand. She lowered her voice and added, "Look, Juliet—pure dark chocolate. Jeff put out a bounty across the entire base just to get this for me."I lied about losing my crystals, and Lucas practically dragged me here to make your life difficult. They don't love you anymore. You really are so pathetic!"Once she said that, the expression on her face twisted as she began searching my pockets aggressively. The moment she laid her fingers on the brown medicine bottle, I tightened my

Chapter 4
[Juliet's POV]The music at the celebration party continued. Surrounded by a crowd, Alison basked in the crowd's repetitive praises.Suddenly, a deafening boom came from the city walls. Overlapping growls and roars of zombies tore through the atmosphere.Terror erupted instantaneously. People in the crowd screamed, "It's a swarm of zombies! A massive swarm of zombies!" A guard ran over, staggering along the way. "The lightning barrier on the right of the base has been breached. There's a massive gap. Zombies are coming through soon!" Jeffrey's face fell. He leapt to his feet while Lucas tightened his grasp on his weapon, wearing a tense expression. Alison went pale with fright. She hid behind both men immediately, frantically explaining, "How could this be when I've clearly reinforced it? I… I've exhausted my powers for today. You guys have to figure something else out!" Someone called out, "Quick! Get Juliet out here!" The guards rushed toward the dark cells immediately a

Chapter 5
[Third-Person POV]The moment the lightning barrier disappeared, zombies swarmed into the city like waves. The survivors who were just crowding around Alison and cheering for her a moment ago had now fallen prey to the clawing zombies."What happened? Why did the lightning barrier disappear?""Alison, what about your powers? Hurry up and save us!""We put so much of our faith in you. You can't leave us behind!"In the midst of the chaos, a man covered in blood fell to his knees out of the blue. He roared, "Have you people forgotten what the system just said? It said Juliet was the host! She was the real savior, not Alison, who is nothing but a liar!" His words came like a bolt from the blue, a violent yet instant wake-up call for those who were blinded by terror."He's right. The system said it was Juliet.""She lied to us. She was the one who pushed Ms. Cox to her death!""Ms. Cox wouldn't have died if not for her. The protective shield wouldn't have disappeared either!""M

Chapter 6
[Third-Person POV]Lucas continued yelling the entire way, gathering all the survivors. "Come with me to get that liar! She must be buried alongside Juliet today!" By relying on their familiarity with the streets in the city, they soon cornered Alison at a dead-end alleyway. She was pinned to the ground, her powers completely suppressed by force. Her clothes tore from the friction; she was covered in blood, and the elegance of her days as their "savior" had long vanished. The people dragged her back to the city walls, to the exact spot where Juliet had died. They bound her tightly to a wooden post with ropes, leaving her with absolutely no room to even wiggle."Let me go, all you maniacs!"Enraged shouts came from the crowd. "Maniacs? We are in this situation all because of you!""Ms. Cox was such a nice woman. Yet, you tricked us into causing her death!""Your time is up today!""Kill her! Make her an offering to Ms. Cox!""Wash our sins away with her blood!"Alison's en

Chapter 7
[Juliet's POV]A burst of white light flashed, and I opened my eyes once again. I was hovering right over the very spot where I had just died.Hadn't my soul already shattered to nothingness? Before I could even ask my question, a force pulled me right to Jeffrey's side. He was covered in blood after surviving a brutal fight earlier. He was curled up on my bed, murmuring repeatedly, "Lucas… Juliet…"I floated silently next to him, my heart completely devoid of any emotion. Although my feelings were already a thing of the past to me, the agonizing pain of being torn apart by zombies was still etched deep in my soul.Out of the blue, Jeffrey jumped out of bed and began frantically searching for something. He rummaged through every corner, even under the bed. In the end, he found a metal box, which I had kept hidden for three years, in a crack in the bricks in a corner. He smashed the lock open, and a stack of hospital reports fell out, along with a half-written will. I watche

Chapter 8
[Juliet's POV]The system continued.[Terms of Sacrifice: You will have to offer up your entire soul, Jeffrey. Upon a successful sacrifice, time will turn back to a week before the apocalypse.][The cost: You and Lucas will cease to exist entirely. Every trace of both of you will be wiped out from all realities. No one will remember either of you, including Juliet.]I froze. As it turned out, Lucas' sacrifice was only in exchange for my soul to be completely restored. And for me to actually be reborn, Jeffrey, too, had to pay the price of having his soul shattered. Jeffrey froze in place. He lifted his head slightly, turning his eyes in the direction to where I was standing. Even though he still couldn't see me, his eyes were accurately set on me. "I'm sorry. I was hoping to be able to make it up to you in the next life, but God isn't giving me the chance to do so. I know you're there. I'm sorry. I am so sorry!" I stared into his eyes, watching pain, regret, and a final gli

Chapter 9
[Juliet's POV]I jolted awake and gasped heavily for air. I took in the familiar-looking ceiling and bedsheets. I was in the rented apartment I had lived in for three years before the apocalypse.I felt the sun shine on the back of my hand, its warmth feeling so surreal. I picked up my phone resting by my pillow, and the screen lit up. It was July 15th, 2058—seven whole days before the apocalypse happened. I stared blankly into space for five whole minutes before my mind slowly drifted back to reality. I had truly been given a second chance at life. Jeffrey and Lucas had traded their very existence to buy me another chance at life. Intuitively, I tapped into my call history, scrolling through it again and again. Nevertheless, there was no one named "Jeffrey Lewis" or "Lucas Cox".I tapped into my photo album. In the graduation photo, where they had once stood on either side of me, I now stood alone.I sent a message to my best friend. "Do you remember Jeffrey Lewis and
