Leora’s pov“KEN! PLEASE! OPEN THE DOOR!”I pounded against the metal door, clutching my little daughter tightly around my chest, my palms stung, my throat burned and my tears blurred my vision as the creeping snarls of zombies getting closer grew louder. “Please, Ken! My baby is freezing!”My daughter whimpered against my neck, her tiny fingers clutching the collar of my bloodstained shirt. “Mummy, I’m scared.” My heart shattered. “I know baby, I know.” I kissed her forehead, fighting to keep my voice steady. “Daddy will open the door, he won’t leave us here.” I slammed my fist against the door again. “KEN!”The door clicked and hope surged through me but when the door opened, Ken didn’t step aside to let us step in. He stood in the narrow gap, dressed in a fresh black jacket, his expression so calm that I forgot the monsters gathering behind me. “Ken?” I stared at him. “Move! Please, there comi my!”He glanced at our daughter in my arms before looking back at me. “You don’t belong

Leora’s POV My phone rang just as I finished reviewing the list of supplies I needed to survive the apocalypse.‘Ken’s mother’ flashed across the screen. I almost laughed.Word travels fast in that family. Ken had probably spent the entire morning complaining about his blocked cards and the divorce papers I had thrown at him. Now his mother was calling to do what she had always done best— remind me of my supposed obligations to her precious son.I answered.“Leota, what exactly are you trying to prove?” She demanded without greeting me.I leaned back in my chair. “Good morning to you too, Mrs Sander,” I answered.“Don’t call me that with your current attitude! Ken told me everything, how could you humiliate your husband by blocking his cards and throwing divorce papers at him? Have you completely lost your mind?” She fired.“No, as a matter of fact, I have never been sane.” I retorted.“Stop acting like a spoiled brat! Whatever happened between you and Ken is a private matter, you do

Leoras pov“Adrian?”The name slipped out before I could stop myself.He stared at me without a trace of the warmth I remembered. The man who had once looked at me as though I were the only woman in the world he loved, down-to-earth, now regarded me like a stranger who had inconvenienced him.“Don’t call me that like we’re old friends.” He picked up his mask. “Where are the cartons?”My chest tightened.Three years ago, Adrian had begged me not to marry Ken. He had shown up at my apartment in the middle of the night, stood in the rain outside my gate, and asked me to give him one reason to stay away from me.I’d given him one; I told him I loved Ken.Then I’d watched Adrian walk away, believing I would never see him again; now he was standing in my bedroom, armed and demanding answers.“I told you, I don’t have your cartons.” I pressed my lips together.I didn’t expect a good guy like him who had been so full of life to become a criminal… such a pity.He stepped closer. “I’m running o

Chapter 7Leora’s povAdrian glanced at me, one hand resting on the steering wheel. For several seconds, he said nothing. Then a faint irritating smile appeared on his face.“Would you feel safer if I said no?”I stared at him. “You know what? Forget I asked.”“Gladly.”I turned toward the window, still heaving my shoulders from the earlier shock, while wondering how I had once fallen in love with this infuriating man. The Adrian I remembered had been gentle, patient, and almost ridiculously sweet. This version seemed to take pleasure in making me miserable.I tuned in the radio and listened to the news.“….advice everyone to remain indoors and avoid contact with anyone with any type of cuts….”The usual drill that does little to no help.I rubbed my temples and shut my eyes, taking a deep breath.Before I could sink deeper into my thoughts, a familiar chime sounded inside my head.[Ding!]I straightened immediately.[Emergency Mission Activated!][Objective: Reach the designated emer
