Alle Kapitel von MY EX LEFT ME TO DIE BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE: Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 6

CHAPTER ONEMy Husband Locked me out in a place like this, leaving me to die here.“Open this fucking door, Ethan! You can hate me tomorrow, but if you leave me out here tonight, I'll die!”I slammed both hands against the reinforced glass, ignoring the pain shooting through my fingers. Snow clung to my eyelashes, my knees were shaking, and I could barely feel my feet inside my frozen boots. Beyond the door, the generator hummed, the fireplace glowed, and my husband stood beside the woman who had helped him destroy my life.Ethan looked at me as if I were a stranger begging outside a grocery store.“Stop making a scene, Evelyn.

There are infected people roaming the streets, half the city has lost power, and you're worried about me making a scene?”“Keep your voice down,” he snapped. “You know how much stress Vanessa is under.”Vanessa stood behind him in my cream-colored sweater, the one I had searched for th
