Chapter 177

Author: Ada Plus
In this deep freeze, phones lagged badly and drained battery fast.

Victor's idea was simple. The Goodmans would provide the equipment, while Nicole's group would keep it running. Together, they would protect both the 17th and 18th floors.

Hughie looked uneasy. "If the doors are electrified, are we going to get shocked, too?"

"No," Victor said. "I'll install switches on both floors. There will be indicator lights when the power's on. Just follow the setup when you go in and out."

It wasn't ea

    Before Nicole and Zeph realized it, they had spent five hours inside the storage space. Outside, it was probably around 6 p.m.In this kind of deep freeze, 6 p.m. meant full darkness.Zeph got dressed, holding up the swim trunks with a hint of awkwardness. "I'll wash these and return them?"Nicole's toes curled in embarrassment. "They look good on you. Just keep them."The man had broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs for days.The words were out before she could stop them. By the time she tried to cover her mouth, it was too late.For once, Zeph actually flushed.Then, as if he had to return the favor, he said, "Thanks. You looked good in what you were wearing, too."Both of them fell silent.Yeah. They were both bad at this. No one had the high ground here.Nicole chambered a round and stepped out of the storage space.The room was pitch black and dead quiet. She stood still for a moment, listening. After making sure no one was around, she switched on her flashlight

    Nicole sat down and counted. There were a full 2,000 rounds. One thousand for the pistols, another thousand for the submachine guns.Zeph checked the weapons, then handed her one of the pistols. "This one has lower recoil. It'll suit you better.""M-Maybe I shouldn't take it. My storage space already swallowed so much of your stuff.""It's fine. I wasn't after that in the first place."Nicole blinked at him, stunned.Not just the pistol. He split everything evenly. One submachine gun each, and a thousand rounds per person. His generosity made her feel a little guilty, but she didn't let her guard down. Who knew if this was bait?"You're really giving this to me?""Yeah.""And you actually expect me to take it?"Zeph looked at her, a faint, helpless smile in his eyes. "Do you really trust me that little?""It's not you." Nicole quickly shook her head. "I grew up in an orphanage. I got picked on a lot and saw more backstabbing than I could count. After a while, you just…stop

    After a serious struggle, Nicole finally pried the toilet loose and tossed it into her storage space.The living room was outrageously luxurious, decorated with antiques, decorative crystals, gemstone displays, and solid gold sculptures shaped like masks. She moved through the space, collecting everything in sight. Then she caught the complicated look Zeph was giving her.Yeah, maybe she was going a bit overboard, but this was the apocalypse. She had no factory jobs to fall back on, no way to earn anything the normal way.Seeing him just standing there, Nicole felt a little awkward. "We split it 50-50?""No." Zeph shook his head. "There are a few safes in the bedroom. Help me take those."Oh. So he did want something. That made things simpler.Nicole didn't waste a second. She stepped into the massive, high-end bedroom. Five huge safes sat lined up side by side.Being the good friend she was, she took the whole lot.Anything valuable didn't get left behind, either. Consider i

    Nicole's brows knit tight.Seriously… What was wrong with this guy?She had been too far away during the execution to see Luke's face clearly in her past life, but the official report had laid it all out.He was a mixed-race drug trafficker who got his start up north, then smuggled product across the border and landed on the most-wanted list. It was enough to put him away for life, several times over. He had been on the run ever since.When the disasters hit, he cashed in on the chaos, built his own criminal network, and went all in. Arson, murder, looting, he did it all, acting like the authorities didn't even exist.Suddenly, Zeph squeezed her arm twice.Nicole caught the signal instantly and pulled a weapon from her storage space, passing it to him.The Drakebane Guild was way too confident, killing the lights like this, as though nothing could touch them.Fine. Then they would take the opening.There was no way to hide anything in swimwear, but that didn't matter when she

    The fight dragged on, the roar of the crowd pounding against Nicole's ears.Her stomach turned. She looked away.Blending into the crowd, she scanned the room instead. Overweight men had women draped over both arms, while women in their thirties and forties let loose without restraint. No one cared about where they were. There was no sense of decency left.So this was the Drakebane Guild's idea of "freedom."The worst part was that no one here found it strange. Some laughed and chatted like it was nothing. Others looked completely numb. It was obvious this kind of thing happened all the time.There were servers mixed in with the guests. The girls were young and pretty, the guys handsome, all of them in swimwear with numbered tags pinned to them.They weren't serving drinks; they were there to serve people.One gesture, and they had to obey. No matter what.They all had fresh, youthful faces, but the apocalypse had worn them down into something hollow. To survive, they swallowed

    Seeing Zeph still standing there, Nicole grabbed a pair of men's swim trunks for him.They stepped into a spacious changing room. After confirming there were no cameras, she handed them over. "Wear these. I'll change inside."The heat was intense. Within seconds, she could feel sweat forming.Nicole slipped into her storage space, stripped off her heavy clothes, and awkwardly changed into the swimsuit.To avoid trouble, she toned down her fair complexion with makeup, adding a few off-looking moles and faint blemishes. By the time she was done, she wasn't striking enough to stand out, but not inviting enough for anyone to come up to her, either.After a bit of effort, she stepped out…and immediately froze.Her eyes landed on Zeph's torso. For a second, she forgot to blink. He had lean, defined muscles. Nothing exaggerated, just balanced and solid.Without thinking, her gaze dropped lower.Yeah… That checked out. He had a near perfect, athletic waist.Her sudden appearance mad
