Rue stepped out of the security room and found Kael standing near the corridor. He was checking the fastening on one of the storage cabinets, his expression unreadable.

“Kael.”

He continued what he was doing.

She approached him. “Can we talk?”

“About what?”

“About what happened.”

He finally looked at her. “What is there to talk about, Rue? You made your decision.”

“I know how it looked.”

“Then perhaps you should consider how it looked to me and how it would've looked to the others if they were

  • THE HOLLOW INVASION: REBORN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE.   Chapter 21—DON'T YOU DARE DIE ON ME.

    Rue dropped her rifle and ran toward Kael. He lay twisted beside the wall, one arm trapped beneath him and blood beginning to spread through his hair. For a moment, she could not hear anything except the pounding of her own heart.“Kael!” She dropped to her knees and touched his cheek. “Kael, open your eyes. Come on, look at me.”There was no response. She shook his shoulder gently, then pressed two fingers against his neck. His pulse was there, faint but steady. Relief rushed through her, but it did not last. The Hollow that had struck him was turning in the corridor, its heavy body scraping against the floor as it prepared to come after them.“Please,” she whispered, cupping his face. “You can't do this. Not now.”A deep growl rolled through the passage. Rue looked over her shoulder. The Hollow was advancing, its jaws opening as it followed the movement and noise around it.She hooked both hands beneath Kael's arms and tried to drag him toward the nearest doorway. His body barely sh

  • THE HOLLOW INVASION: REBORN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE.   Chapter 20—TRAPPED INSIDE.

    The building shuddered, sending dust cascading from the ceiling. Rue caught Elise by the arm as a crash sounded from the corridor, followed by the scrape of claws against metal.“They're inside,” Kael said, raising his rifle. “We need to get everyone away from the outer walls before they break through.”The Hollow forced its head through the gap, its jaws snapping as it dragged the rest of its body into the room. Kael fired three times. The shots struck its face and shoulder, making it recoil, but it did not fall.“That's not stopping it!” Flip cried.“It isn't supposed to,” Rue replied, pulling Elise behind an overturned desk. “The bullets only slow them down. Aim for the head and buy us a few seconds.”“Only a few seconds?” Flip stared at her. “And what exactly are we supposed to do with a few seconds?”“Use them wisely,” Kael said, firing again.The Hollow slammed against the shutter. Metal tore loose, and a second impact shook the reception area. Somewhere deeper in the building,

  • THE HOLLOW INVASION: REBORN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE.   Chapter 19—PRICE OF REVENGE

    For one stunned moment, Rue could only stare.The woman holding Elise was not a stranger. She knew that face, the sharp eyes and the familiar features that had once been softened by a smile. But the woman standing in front of her looked nothing like the pregnant woman Rue had last seen.“Celeste?” Rue's voice came out thin. Her gaze dropped briefly to Celeste's stomach before returning to her face. “You're not pregnant?”“Yes,” Celeste replied, her grip tightening around Elise. “And it's all because of you.”Elise struggled against the hand covering her mouth. The knife pressed closer to her neck, and she went still.“Were you so jealous that you couldn't help me?” Celeste continued. “I lost my baby because you left me out to die.”Rue's expression changed. “Celeste, I need you to calm down. Drop the knife.”Behind her, Brittany had one arm around the sixteen-year-old girl. Both of them stood frozen, their eyes fixed on Celeste. Flip's mouth hung open, while Kael slowly raised his rif

  • THE HOLLOW INVASION: REBORN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE.   Chapter 18—OVER HERE!

    Rue kept glancing over her shoulder as they moved through the narrow streets. The uneasy feeling had settled beneath her skin and refused to leave.Kael walked a few steps ahead, his rifle ready. His injured shoulder made him hold the weapon awkwardly, and Rue noticed the way he favoured his other arm.“You agreed to let me look at that,” she whispered.“When we were safe.”“But you're bleeding out and losing a lot of blood.”“I'm fine.”She was about to answer when Brittany moved closer with the girl. “Are we almost there?”“Not far,” Rue said. “We need to reach the old shopping district. The address Evelyn sent should be on the next block.”The girl looked up anxiously. “Do you think Elise will know where my sister is?”Rue turned to her. “We haven't met Elise yet, so I can't promise that. But we'll ask if she has seen anyone moving through the area.”Flip adjusted the backpack on his shoulders. “Can we talk about how we're collecting people now? First we got the kid, and we're stil

  • THE HOLLOW INVASION: REBORN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE.   Chapter 17—THE GIRL IN THE PASSAGE.

    The four of them had barely gone two streets when Rue noticed a girl.At first, it was only a movement at the far end of a narrow passage between two shuttered shops. Rue slowed, lifting one hand to signal the others. Kael stopped beside her, while Flip nearly walked into Brittany.“What?” Flip whispered. “Why’d we stop?”Rue did not answer immediately. She was watching the passage. A young girl stumbled into view, backing away from two men who had cornered her against a wall. One had a hand wrapped around her arm. The other stood in front of her, blocking the only clear way out.“Let me go!” the girl cried, struggling to pull free.“Keep your voice down,” one of the men snapped. “You want to bring those things here?”“Then leave me alone!”The man holding her arm shoved her against the wall. The girl tried to push past him, but the second man caught her by the shoulder.Rue’s expression hardened. “We have to help her.”Kael caught her wrist before she could move. “There are two of th

  • THE HOLLOW INVASION: REBORN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE.   Chapter 16—The More, the Merrier.

    They waited in silence, listening to the heavy impacts against the metal door and the scraping sounds that followed. Rue kept her rifle raised while Kael stood beside her, one hand pressed against his bleeding shoulder. The man who had let them in watched the entrance, and his girlfriend remained close behind him.Another thud shook the door.The woman flinched. “You think they can get in?”“Not if this door holds,” the man whispered.Nobody moved. They listened as the impacts grew farther apart, followed by a low, dragging sound that travelled down the street. After a while, even that disappeared. They waited longer, until the only sound left was their uneven breathing.Rue checked the street through the narrow gap while they waited. The alarm had stopped, but fresh cracks ran across the road. She wondered how many Hollow were moving beneath the buildings and how long the couple's shelter would have held if they stayed. There was no time to waste.The man finally turned towards them.
