Sinopsis

Life comes hard and fast for Kendra and her family in a dystopian world that is struggling to recover from a nuclear war and is now under the rule of an alien government. Unaware of the impending alien invasion, a group of scientists -which included Kendra's parents- were ordered to create a zombie virus and set it loose on Russia. The intention was to subdue Russia and then release the cure, but the alien attack took them unawares and the scientists and their cure disappeared, leaving the virus to run rampant. Having been inoculated against the virus, Kendra's aunt is one of these scientists who has kept her identity a secret for fear of being made a slave to the alien government. When a village that is connected to the people who moved underground for survival kidnaps Kendra in hopes that they can harvest any memories of her parents discussing the cure while she was a mere infant with the use of an experimental machine, her aunt must decide about coming forth with her identity. In the meantime, along with dealing with the ever-rising population of zombies, the alien regime -which considers humans a delicacy for their dinner table – sets out to correct and purify the human race from those who were mutated in some way by the nuclear explosions. Rex is one of those humans. He is also Kendra’s lover. “Where Zombies Walk” is Book One of Kendra’s Journey in a world that offers steamy romance, nail biting peril, and thrills, and a paradise-like sanctuary within its core. All she has to do is make her way there.

Prologue
It’s the aftermath of an apocalypse of life on earth as we know it.  The planet has suffered a devastating alteration to its surface composition.  Although the earth has been resilient in the face of catastrophe over the millenniums and has already begun to rejuvenate in some way or another, there is speculation that it might never completely recover from the nuclear war that raged as a last resort for the powers that be to hang onto the control of the planet and not lose it to the few humans who were assisting with the invasion of a dominant alien race.  There are only a select few areas that aren’t affected. These areas were quickly seized by the invading aliens and the humans who’d worked with them during the takeover for habitation, leaving the rest of mankind to struggle for survival in a damaged world. With many of the natural resources impaired, most of the conveniences that society enjoyed have been lost or deliberately removed b

Chapter One
The sun beat down on the scorched and barren land with such intensity that its rays glistened off the tiny particles of soil that was so dark that it almost looked black.  Thick heat waves hovered in between Kendra and her target, making it difficult to focus for a clear shot.  She knelt on one knee in hopes that the mountain’s shadow would dull the sun’s rays enough to improve her vision.  She silently cursed as her stomach announced its need for sustenance with a loud rumble that softly echoed off the boulders on either side of her.  Holding her breath, she hoped that it wasn’t loud enough to alert the big cat of her presence as it languidly stretched its long body across the surface of a flat boulder while it bathed in the sun’s intense rays.  Beads of sweat trickled down her torso as she slowly pulled the bow string and released the arrow.  The cat’s wail of surprise echoed off the boulders that lined the barren valley

Chapter Two
Where there was one mountain lion, there was generally a mate.  This was her thinking as Kendra headed back out the following day with her bow slung over her shoulder.  She wanted to take advantage of the possibility of the cat’s mate still being in the area.  It wasn’t easy to come across big game that had escaped genetic mutation enough to be edible; never mind an original.  Most of what she brought home was of the aviary family.  Since her kill was a genetic original, she was fairly certain that its mate would be too.  She just couldn’t pass up the chance to build their stores of protein with quality meat. She was so lost in thought about the soups and stews that her aunt would produce with the abundance of meat that she planned on supplying with this second kill that, when she came to the kill spot from the day before, she was surprised to have arrived so soon. She heaved a sigh of disappointment when she

Chapter Three
“Another cat?” Olga said with a smirk of delighted surprise as she stood in the cave’s opening with her hands on her hips.“I’m going to be sick from the smell of sweat and sunbaked blood,” Kendra groaned as she wiggled out from beneath the bulk of the cat and heaved it onto the hook that was driven into the rock specifically for such purposes.  Her mood had only slightly improved during the journey home.  “It was a long walk.”“You’re limping,” Olga observed.Kendra pulled off her blood crusted shirt and tossed it to the ground.   Then, she limped to the nearest stump so that she could sit and remove her boots. “The cat was heavy and I bruised my foot on a boulder cluster.”Olga disappeared into the cave and returned with a fresh shirt.  Tossing it at her niece, she barked, “Cover yourself before the boys come out.”“Why are the

Chapter Four
Ari held tight to her mare’s reins as she carefully maneuvered through the thick grove of trees that bordered Center Land Village.  She wore an expression of concern and disappointment. She’d been searching for the Schiele family for almost five years.  The girl that she met hunting on the edge of zombie territory, Kendra, fit the description, but she couldn’t be sure without knowing her family name. Was she the daughter of the two scientists who’d unleashed the zombie virus? It was well known that the child of the scientists was but an infant when they were executed and the reversal of the zombie virus was lost with the lives of the scientists, but they were banking on the fact that she was present during their discussions about it as well as during their daily routines enough for things to have been absorbed in her subconscious.  It was hoped that, with the technology available to them, there was a strong possibility that either

Chapter Five
Felix practically fell onto the small patch of grass that the hillside offered when Olga finally gave the order to stop and rest.  Walking wasn’t easy for him under the best of circumstances. The ache of having been the recipient of Rupert’s angry fists the night before and having a good amount of their belongings strapped to his back only hindered him more.  Even so, he had no intention of complaining.  He knew that his aunt and Kendra were toting the bulk of their belongings on their back as they took turns pulling the overloaded wagon. He was also well aware that Kendra had an injured foot.  Not to mention the fact that he knew that she’d experienced a fitful night with minimal sleep; which was understandable after Rupert’s almost rape.“Where will this lead us?” he asked as he wiped the sweat from his brow and the back of his neck.“It’s awfully close to zombie land,” Kendra said.&ldq

Chapter Six
With their bodies exhausted and their nerves frayed from the drama and tension of the last few days, they ate a cold, light meal of jerky and raw carrots that they washed down with pine needle tea before they called it a day alongside the setting sun.Since the only protection they had was their make-shift lean-to, it was decided that they would take turns keeping watch for predators or zombies during the night.  The fire was reduced to glowing embers to prevent attracting attention, should there be someone or something in the vicinity, but it was warm enough in the season for them not to need a fire for comfort.Because Kendra was rejuvenated by her extended nap, she offered to take the first watch. Her aunt and cousin were asleep before she’d managed to settle into position for her task. She watched their chests move up and down to the rhythm of their steady breathing and sighed. Regret for not dealing with Rupert in a different way consumed her. She&rsquo

Chapter Seven
Kendra thought that she’d slept very little that night. So, she was surprised to discover her aunt and Rex sitting by a roaring campfire while enjoying fresh, hot pine tea and some good conversation. How did she miss her aunt getting to know him enough to trust that it was safe to release him? She’d kept one ear on the alert, hadn’t she?“You look like a frightened rabbit,” Olga teased as Kendra slowly approached them.“More like a frightened squirrel come down from the tree,” Rex knowingly chuckled.“You saw me?” Kendra gasped.“I did,” he nodded.A scowl consumed the smooth, sun kissed flesh of her oval face, but it in no way diminished Rex’s appreciation of her beauty. “Why didn’t you say something?” Before he could answer, she raced away from the camp while informing them that she had to pee, but she’d be back in a jiffy and expected an explanation.

Chapter Eight
Felix proved to be a greater help than even he could imagine.  More than once, Rex praised him for his show of strength and stamina as they battled their way up the steep hillside with the heavily laden wagon. Olga worriedly monitored their progress, but said nothing. She’d overprotected her nephew because of his deformity for his entire life.  She could see now that it wasn’t a necessary thing to have done. Felix was born while they were huddled together like eggs in an egg carton in the bomb shelter. The birth was a long and complicated one. It resulted in a damaged foot for him and death for his mother.  Having assisted with the birthing, Olga carried a heavy guilt over what had happened.  It didn’t matter that none of them were trained for such an event and that they’d managed to save Felix even if they couldn’t save his mother.  She kept wondering if someone else in the group might have done it bet

Chapter Nine
Ari scowled as she kicked at the rocks that made up the well-used fireplace.   Cold ashes billowed a few feet into the air before settling on and around her boots.“You should have followed her home that day,” Baelil complained.“I don’t know what good coming back here does,” Ari moaned.  “It’s been weeks.”“I just thought that we should keep an eye on the place.  Maybe she’ll return.  You never know.”“You’re right,” Ari sighed. “You’re always right. I shouldn’t have come home that day. I should have followed her. I just didn’t see the urgency. I also thought that maybe, if she met you, she’d warm up to us better. Never in a million years did it enter my mind that meeting me would spook her so much that she’d pack up and move.”“I just sent for Denai. She should be here soon,” Baelil sai
