All Chapters of Reborn 30 Days Before Doomsday:The Billionaire Wants Me : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The creature pushed through the dust where the western wall had collapsed and for several seconds Sharon could only stare in disbelief because the thing standing outside did not resemble anything of an ordinary infected human.It was enormous.The creature's shoulders were almost twice as wide as a man's, its skin had turned a sickly gray below patches of blackened flesh, and the thick veins craweled up and down its neck and arms as if something inside its skin was moving independently from the creature itself.The creature's mouth opened.A deep, unnatural growl rolled across the resort and Sharon's blood ran cold.She had seen it before.Not today.Not now.Months later.In the previous timeline creatures like this had been appearing after the infected had evolved, after entire cities had already fallen and survivors had given up trying to pretend that the world could be made better.They had been called Brutes.And the first one Sharon had ever seen had been almost four months afte

The laughter that came from underneath the floor remained.Low.Slow.Almost amused.Sharon looked at Alex, his face barely visible under the emergency light that came from the black crystal, and tried to forget the words scrawled in blood that now burned at the edge of her vision.HE WAS THE ONE WHO KILLED YOU.Her heart pounded in her chest.Alex's face was still hidden by the black crystal, but his eyes were locked onto hers, and for the first time since they met, Sharon couldn't tell whether the man before her was someone she could trust or the biggest danger in her new life."Sharon," Alex said quietly.She took a step back."Don't come any closer."He stopped walking and something shifted in his expression.Pain.Not anger.Pain."You believe that message?""I don't know what to believe anymore."The ground trembled around them and a crack snaked through the concrete in between them.Alex looked down."Whatever happens, stay behind me."Sharon nearly laughed."You really don't u

The heartbeat under the resort grew louder by the second, sending vibrations through the concrete walls and shaking Sharon’s floors, until it almost seemed like there was something huge sleeping under their feet, something that had been resting underground long before mankind even understood what the apocalypse was.Once.Twice.Then hundreds of other heartbeats answered.Sharon looked down at her phone.IT WAS SHARONThe message read. The young woman’s eyes widen as her fingers grew numb.Alex looked up.“What did they send you?”Sharon quickly locked her phone.“Nothing.”Alex’s gaze darkened“You’re lying.”“So are you.”A heavy silence lingered between them for a few seconds before Victoria stepped in between them.“Whatever it is that you two are bickering about, do it some other time.”Another heartbeat shuddered through the resort, making the walls tremble. Daniel placed a hand on his wounded shoulder and looked towards the floor.“It’s waking up.”Sharon turned to look at him.

"That child is ours."Alex's words echoed along the ruined corridor.Sharon's eyes locked onto his and for some seconds she simply couldn't comprehend what she'd just heard.Ours.The word was wrong, completely wrong, in the context of everything that was happening around them.With the creatures under the resort.With the black crystal.With the impossible woman with Sharon's face.And certainly with Alex."What did you say?"Alex met her gaze."The child."There was something cold in Sharon's tone now."I heard you.""Then you know what I'm saying.""No."She took a step forward."I don't know anything anymore."Alex opened his mouth but Sharon raised a hand."Don't start explaining yet."She gestured at the screen."That photograph showed me."Alex nodded."And you were standing beside me."Yes.""Who took it?""I don't know.""Where?""Blackwell."Sharon's heart pounded in her chest."Then why don't I remember it?"Alex's expression darkened."Because it hasn't happened yet."There

The word echoed throughout sublevel nine.Mother.Sharon couldn't move.The baby in the cracked incubator was staring at her, his tiny black eyes reflecting the red emergency lights and despite all odds, the strange part wasn't his eyes or the creatures screaming from beyond the walls.It was the feeling inside Sharon's chest.Recognition.She knows him.Not from a memory.Not from a dream.Somehow, somewhere deeply ingrained.As if her body remembered something her mind had been forced to forget.Alex stepped in front of Sharon."Don't go near him."Sharon barely heard him.The baby raised a small hand and suddenly, the black crystal in Sharon's pocket became burning hot.She pulled it out.It was glowing.The baby smiled and Sharon's crystal responded, a black line appearing on the glass.Then another.The whole incubator began to shake."Get back!" Daniel shouted.Everyone moved away.Except Sharon.The baby pressed his palm to the glass and Sharon's eyes widened.The same symbol t
