Ashley’s POV

I screamed so loud that the sound tore out of my throat as another infected lunged toward us, its claws slicing through the air. Xavier stepped in front of me instantly. He swung his sword with both hands, barely managing to knock the creature backward before another one charged from the side.

My back hit the wall as I clutched the clay pot against my chest. My fingers trembled so badly that water sloshed inside. I had made sure that the cover was very tight.

Then, the light from

  • Transmigrated seven days before the Apocalypse    Chapter 32: The King’s Summon

    Ashley’s POVBy the time I stirred awake, Xavier was already out of bed and getting dressed. I blinked a few times, adjusting to the morning light filtering through the windows. As I pushed myself into a sitting position and stretched my aching limbs, he glanced in my direction and chuckled.“Sleepyhead! I’m guessing you had a… wonderful night.” He teased, buttoning his shirt.A smile tugged at the corner of my lips as I nodded. “I did. But where are you going?”He chuckled again, reaching for his belt. “You must have forgotten that we’re in the middle of an apocalypse.”I rolled my eyes playfully. “I haven’t forgotten. I just woke up.”“Right.” He shook his head, still smiling. “I’m going out to see if there are any more survivors we can rescue. You said we have seven days before we completely lose daylight. This is day three.”My smile gradually faded as the reality of our situation settled in.“Alright, then. Let me get dressed. I’ll come with you.”Xavier immediately shook his head

    Ashley’s POV“Yeah. Like we used to.” Xavier said it with such a casual smile that I almost forgot I wasn’t actually the original Ashley.“Oh!” I hesitated before walking towards the bed. Once I climbed onto it, I sank into the mattress.My eyes widened slightly. Goodness! This bed was incredibly soft and cool. It was nothing like the hard mattress I’d been accustomed to in Brooklyn.I shifted comfortably, enjoying the feeling. However, before I could settle properly, Xavier suddenly slipped an arm around my waist and pulled me closer.“Oh!”My body stiffened momentarily as my back pressed against his chest.He chuckled softly. “What? Are you uncomfortable?”His voice was barely above a whisper, his breath brushing against my ear.I turned my head slightly. “No. I’m just curious.”“Curious about what?”I hesitated, wondering how to phrase my question without making things awkward. “What other things have we done in this room?”His arm remained around my waist. For a moment, he was qui

  • Transmigrated seven days before the Apocalypse    Chapter 30: A night with Xavier

    Ashley’s POVI had already changed into one of the dresses Xavier had provided when I wandered towards the window. From that height, I could see a considerable portion of the kingdom. However, the darkness had swallowed almost everything outside. The streets were deserted, and not a single soul was in sight.I rested my fingers against the window frame, watching the eerie surroundings. Just then, a faint cracking sound caught my attention. My eyes narrowed.Something was moving behind one of the bushes. I leaned closer, trying to get a better view. A moment later, an infected creature crawled out from behind the bush. Its movements were sluggish and uncoordinated as it staggered across the grounds.My gaze followed it. It was quite a distance from the window, and considering how high the room was, hitting my target wouldn’t be easy.Then, an unpleasant memory flashed through my mind. Earlier today, I had missed my shot at an infected man. That single mistake had almost cost me my life

    Aries’s POVI had been pacing back and forth across my room for what felt like forever. My hands were clasped behind my back, and every few seconds, I stopped to stare at the floor before resuming my restless movements.I couldn’t get the image of Ashley out of my head. That girl was getting everything I had worked so hard to achieve. First, Xavier’s attention, and now, the position of the kingdom’s chief scholar. What exactly was happening?A soft creak from the door interrupted my thoughts. I turned just as Elara pushed it open and stepped inside, carrying a tray of food. She glanced at me before carefully placing it on the table.“Your… your parents were asking if you would be joining them at the table,” she said, hesitating slightly.I folded my arms. “And what did you tell them?”“That you had decided to turn in early.”I let out a tired breath before sinking into the nearest chair. My head fell against the backrest as I stared at the ceiling. “How did things get this bad?”Elara

    Ashley’s POVXavier turned towards the door. I watched as he slipped the key into the lock and turned it. The door creaked open, revealing Aries and Elara standing outside.Aries was the first to peek into the room. The moment her eyes landed on me, her eyebrows shot up. She looked at me, then at Xavier, before folding her arms across her chest.“What? Is this the quarantine room, Xavier? Do you even understand the meaning of quarantine?” she asked, her gaze shifting between us.Xavier let out an irritated sigh. “What do you want, Aries?”“Xavier, what exactly are you doing?” She stepped closer, her expression hardening. “The kingdom is facing a serious crisis, and you’re here playing friendship with her. Do you think your father will approve of this?”Xavier’s jaw tightened. “What’s your problem, Aries? Is that why you came here?” He folded his arms. “You expect me to leave her in that isolation room for something I did? I don’t see anything wrong with keeping her in my room for the

    Ashley’s POV“Ashley, don’t tell me…”Xavier immediately stepped forward, cutting Aries off before she could finish her sentence. “I did it. It was an accident,” he said firmly, positioning himself slightly in front of me.“What accident? I hope you’re not trying to cover up for her?” Aries asked, her eyes narrowing suspiciously.“I said I did it, Aries!” Xavier snapped. “We were wrestling with an infected, and while I was holding her, I accidentally scratched her. That’s all.”Aries stared at him for a moment, seemingly unconvinced. “Xavier, you’re forgetting something.”He frowned. “What?”“I’ve fought alongside you since we were young. We’ve trained together countless times, and you’ve never accidentally hurt me. Not once. Do you know why? Because you’re always careful, even when we’re fighting.”“That’s different,” he countered, running a hand through his hair. “We were practicing. Out there, it’s a matter of life and death. Things happen, Aries. I was trying to keep an infected a
