Survival Game Apocalypse Web Novels & Apocalypse Stories

PLEASE NOTE: THESE ARE STANDALONE APOCALYPSE BOOKS. **** Claire Bennett thought she was just watching a zombie movie. Until a blackout knocked her unconscious—and she woke up inside the movie, in the body of Madison Hayes, the doomed heroine whose death was inevitable. The worst part? The apocalypse begins in three minutes. Claire Bennett knows how the story is supposed to unfold. She knows which students will die first, which escape routes will become death traps, and which survivors will betray one another when fear turns them into monsters. Armed with knowledge no one else possesses, she makes her first move: change the ending. But the moment she saves someone who was supposed to die, the story begins to unravel. Events happen earlier than they should. The infected start behaving strangely. People who should know nothing about her call her by a name she has never revealed. And somewhere behind the outbreak lies a secret connected to the body she now inhabits. Then she discovers something far more terrifying than the zombies. This apocalypse was never supposed to happen the way she remembers it. With the city collapsing, the military hiding the truth, and an unknown organization hunting her, Claire Bennett must fight to keep herself and her companions alive. Every decision could save a life—or unleash something worse. But as the mystery surrounding her transmigration deepens, one question haunts her: Why was she brought into this world? And if she can change the ending of the movie, can she change the ending of her own fate? The countdown has begun. Three minutes to prepare. Three minutes to escape. Three minutes before the dead rise. And this time, Claire Bennett refuses to follow the script.

Vivian Ashford was supposed to die in chapter ten. Her husband was cheating, his family was selling her to a survival base, and the apocalypse was three days away. Then Claire woke up in her body, with the whole book memorized. By dinner, the cheating husband had lost his mistress and his fortune, and his mother had lost her place at the base. By midnight, the outbreak had started early, and Claire had locked the entire family out of the stockpile they stole from her. Now she has the supplies, a cold commander the book killed off too soon, and a stranger texting her warnings that were never in the story. But chapter ten has passed, and the book has no more pages. Everyone who wronged her wants her gone, and for the first time, even she doesn't know what happens next.

“Sign the papers, Giada. You were never worth more than the dishes you washed.” For four years, Giada Vitale scrubbed their floors, cooked their meals, and raised a child that wasn’t even hers, while her husband crawled into his brother’s wife’s bed every night and his mother counted every grain of rice she ate. They called her a mule. A stray dog they fed out of charity. A cockroach who should be grateful for crumbs. When they kicked her out, his mother smiled and said, “Finally, the smell is gone.” But Giada has already lived through the end of the world, and she came back with ninety days to prepare, a supernatural ability no one can explain, and a lottery ticket worth forty million dollars. Now the husband who spit on her pride is kneeling at her door, using the same child he hid from her as a bargaining chip. “Kneel until your knees bleed,” his mother ordered him. “For forty million dollars, you can crawl all the way to the moon.” Too late. The woman they treated worse than a dog is now the only person who can survive what’s coming. And she doesn’t need a single one of them. “Go home, Enzo. A child should not be used as a mop.”

In her past life, Seraphina (Sera) starling was used as human meat-shield fodder during the zombie/mutant apocalypse by her greedy ex-fiancé and her manipulative stepsister. After dying a brutal death, she opens her eyes—waking up 30 days before the apocalypse on the exact day she was supposed to sign over her inherited billionaire estate to her ex. This time, she awakens an ancient Spatial Dimensional Ring with an Infinite Storage & Duplication System. Armed with 30 days, billions in liquid cash, and zero mercy, Sera liquidates her enemies' assets, hoards millions of tons of food, weapons, and medical supplies, and builds an impenetrable fortress base. When the world ends and her betrayers come begging at her iron gates, she's sipping hot cocoa in a climate-controlled sanctuary.

In her first life, Rayna made the mistake of loving the wrong man. She gave Michael her trust, her fortune, and the best years of her life. He gave her lies. Her vicious stepsister helped destroy everything Rayna had built, and when the world descended into a merciless ice age, they showed her exactly how little her life and her daughter’s was worth. Rayna died with nothing. Except regret. Now, she has thirty days before the apocalypse begins. Thirty days to reclaim what was stolen, secure her daughter’s future, and prepare for the cold that will bury the old world. But Michael has no idea what’s coming. He still thinks Rayna is the foolish woman he can deceive, use, and discard How delicious it will be when he discovers otherwise. This time, Rayna won’t beg for love. Now, she has a second chance to destroy everything they thought they were entitled to. Thirty days until the ice age. Thirty days until the tables turn. And when the world freezes over, Rayna will decide who gets left out in the cold.

The sky bled red for seventeen minutes. When it stopped, every woman on earth was dead. Except her. Calanthe Barnaby crawls through the ruins with a murdered child still leaving her body and a city full of men who are no longer human. The Crimson Veil has turned the survivors into predators. They can smell the last living woman from miles away, and they are coming. Then a wolf takes her. Alpha Emmerick does not ask or negotiate. He calls her mate, carries her into enemy territory, and swears he will never claim a human… while his body and his beast demand exactly that. He is only the beginning. Two more monsters have already caught her scent. A Vampire Lord. A Dragon Lord. Ancient enemies who have hated each other for centuries. Now they will burn the world down for the right to own the last woman left breathing. She is the last cunt standing. And every nightmare still walking wants to ruin her.

The world ended in fire, plague, and silence but it did not end her. Kaya Voss is not a survivor. She is what survival became after it stopped being merciful. Feared across the Wastes as "The Widowmaker," she walks through radioactive ruins and raider camps alike without a scratch, because nothing man, mutant, or machine has ever proven strong enough to stop her. She trusts no one. She needs no one. And she has buried a truth about herself so deep that even she has started to believe the lie. Then she finds Elian Reyes, a half-starved medic from the Enclosed City of Meridian Hollow, defenseless in every way that matters out here, and utterly unwilling to be saved by a woman he was raised to believe couldn't exist. He is soft where she is iron. He asks questions she has spent years avoiding. And against every instinct that has kept her alive, she lets him live. What begins as reluctant protection becomes something neither of them can outrun not the growing pull between them, not the enemies converging on Kaya from both the Wastes and the City, and not the truth about who and *what* she really is. Because Kaya Voss was not born in the Collapse.She was built for it. As old enemies resurface, the City's council reveals its true agenda, and the Undercurrent's existence proves horrifyingly real, Kaya must decide what's worth protecting when the last thing she ever expected to find in a dead world is someone worth loving.

Mara gave them everything—her life, her work, her time, and everything she had to offer. She remained the only reason the Calder family survived the apocalypse. And how did they repay her? They threw her and her mother into the melting streets so that Jason’s dog’s new puppies could have a place in the safe haven she had created herself. When she receives the gift of a second chance and a stockpiling system, she vows not only to get the revenge she deserves but also to survive the apocalypse. However, despite her knowledge of what is to come, the road ahead remains uncertain and brings challenges vastly different from those in her past life, including a mysterious stranger who always seems to know more than he should.

Nora Vale had spent years giving everything to the people she loved. Then one night, they left her with nothing. When she opened her eyes again, she had one chance to change what was coming. This time, Nora wasn't going to be the woman waiting to be saved. She was going to be ready. But when she realized someone else was preparing for what was coming, Nora understood one thing— She wasn't the only one with a second chance.

Who needs love when I can see the future? After being betrayed by her boyfriend and best friend and left to die in a world overrun by zombies, Ivy Collins gets a second chance at life. Reborn seventy-two hours before the apocalypse, she knows exactly what is coming and has only three days to prepare for the end of the world. This time, she will hoard millions worth of supplies, unlock powerful abilities, and build an advantage nobody can take away from her. No more sacrificing everything for ungrateful people. No more trusting the wrong hearts. Survival comes first, and revenge will be served cold. But there’s one problem. Ivy isn’t the only one who has been reborn. Her ungrateful boyfriend and best friend have returned with their memories of the previous apocalypse, too. They believe they can rewrite their fate, claim their share of the future, and rise to the top once again. What they don’t know is that Ivy is already several steps ahead. As zombies awaken, deadly disasters strike, and humanity descends into chaos, the race for survival begins. But this time, Ivy refuses to be anyone’s stepping stone. While her betrayers struggle to secure their future, she will make them regret ever crossing her. “Cry louder. Your regret is my favorite show.”

I wrote a heroine who drowned. Now I'm the one drowning in her body. I'm Nora Brooks, a bestselling author. I killed my heroine in chapter 87, and forty thousand readers wanted me dead for it. Then I died saving a stray dog and woke up inside my own book as the girl I drowned. Now I'm Nora Wells, the "blank" everyone mocks. My stepmother sold my mother's pearls. My stepsister is waiting to take my beast, my name and my place on the Ark. And in ninety days, the Flood will swallow the world. I know every twist, because I wrote them. That's the only thing I have. So I'm changing the ending. I pick the weakest beast in the Temple, a half-dead peacock chick called Pip, that everyone laughs at. I make the people who wronged Nora pay, one humiliating reversal at a time. And with Pip, I'll build a shelter, stock food and clean water, and prepare for a disaster that kills almost everyone I wrote. But the plot is changing without me. The Flood is coming faster. The villains keep doing things I never wrote. And a woman in the dark water seems to be holding my pen. Pip isn't just a beast. He's hiding a power that can survive the end of the world, and a curse that I may be the only one who can break. Ninety days. One peacock. One author who knows how it all ends, except for the part that matters. They chose the dragon. I chose the weakest beast.

She died on her knees in the rain, clutching her dead children while the man she loved locked the door and left her to the monsters. Sera Quinn gave everything to her husband and the family she thought was hers… only to be thrown away when the apocalypse began. Her daughters’ screams were the last thing she heard before the claws tore her apart. Then she opened her eyes. Twenty-one days before the end of the world. Still pregnant with the baby she had already lost. And this time, she is not alone. A mysterious Bloodline Survival System binds itself to her, granting her a storage space and one clear mission: protect her bloodline at any cost. No more softness. No more blind trust. No more begging for love from people who see her as disposable. She cuts every toxic tie, reclaims what is hers, and begins preparing with ruthless focus. Her two living daughters will not die again. The unborn child inside her will take her first breath in a world Sera controls. But the timeline itself is already breaking. The first monsters appear days too early. And the most dangerous man from her previous life — Adrian Cole, the survivor leader who once watched her and her children die outside his gates — has found her eighteen days ahead of schedule. He remembers nothing of the future. She remembers everything. Now the woman he once condemned as weak is no longer begging for shelter. She is building an empire of her own… and this time, she will decide who lives, who dies, and who is allowed to stand by her side. In a world about to collapse, Sera Quinn will not just survive. She will make the apocalypse regret ever touching her family.

My dear boyfriend offered me as the sacrifice in exchange for the life of his ex/bestie, so I dumped him for a demigod to rule the underworld as their new queen.

Level 1. Assassin. Starting gear: one rusty revolver and a really bad attitude. Aria was an insurance adjuster with a gaming habit and a Charisma score she's still offended by. Then she wakes up in a crumbling high-rise in a ruined city, with a health bar floating in her vision and a terminal telling her she's a Level 1 Assassin. Her loadout is a single Colt, a knife, and four boxes of ammo. No respawn button. No manual. No one to tell her whether she can quit. The city is full of zombies, and she's a terrible shot. But she's a quick study. With a secondhand baseball bat, a scruffy little dog named Midnight, and a talent for turning panic into XP, Aria starts to climb. She unlocks Victorian-flavored shops, scrounges for blueprints, and hunts quests for a shotgun she can't afford. She also catches the eye of a cocky guild recruiter, a flirty healer, and a secretive sisterhood of assassins whose mechanical librarian is a little too thorough with its security scan. Everyone in this world seems to want something from her. Then a stranger on a passing bus holds up a message, and Aria loses an hour in the back room of a crafting shop. Now she's wondering whether the game was built for her, and who else is watching her play. She can't log out, so she's going to have to grind. Snarky, gritty, and packed with gear porn, zombie-bashing, and slow-burn romance, this is a steampunk LitRPG for readers who've ever muttered "fuck this game" and then played for six more hours.

Seven days. One second chance. And an apocalypse no one else knows is coming. Olivia Bennett died alone, listening as the family she sacrificed everything for divided her money before her heart had even stopped. Then she wakes up seven days before the apocalypse. This time, Olivia has a mysterious system—and every dollar she spends comes back tenfold. So she spends. Luxury apartments. Cars. Medicine. Food. Generators. Weapons. Everything she needs to survive the coming collapse. But revenge comes first. She changes the locks, files for divorce, exposes her husband's secrets, and cuts off every person who betrayed her. Then she meets Dominic Reeves, a ruthless former military contractor who seems to see straight through her walls. “You're preparing for something.” “You wouldn't believe me.” “Try me.” For the first time, Olivia finds someone who doesn't want her money. He wants to protect her. But when the apocalypse arrives, her ex-husband comes hunting for her supplies—and Dominic becomes his next target. Olivia already died once. This time, she's ready to fight for everything she refuses to lose.

Betrayed by her husband and stripped of everything, Flora gets a second chance at life right before the end of the world. With a system counting down to the apocalypse, she scams her cruel husband out of his entire fortune, flees the city, and stockpiles a mountain of supplies to protect her daughter. Then the man who died five years ago resurfaces with a terrifying truth: her husband is not even her child's father. As the zombie outbreak explodes across the globe, Flora secures her high tech fortress with her fortune, leaving her ruined husband broke and defenseless in the dead zone. But survival in the wasteland requires a team, and revenge is a dish best served cold.

I died in my original world believing I understood the story of a villainess who lost everything, then I woke up in her body. Calista Drevane was the most hated woman in The Last Dawn, a novel I had read before my death. In forty-three days, the apocalypse would begin. The heroine would awaken a legendary ability, become humanity’s savior, and win the heart of Evren Sable, the ruthless commander destined to execute Calista for her crimes. I knew how the story ended. Calista would be betrayed, branded a traitor, and killed by the man she loved. Unfortunately for everyone, I have no intention of following the script. I don’t want the commander, the heroine’s destiny, or a death sentence for people who would rather see me buried than admit they need me. My plan is simple: acquire resources, build a sanctuary, and survive. But changing the story has consequences. The heroine begins losing the future she was promised. Survivors abandon the woman they once worshipped to follow me. Evren, who should despise me, grows suspicious of my actions and dangerously unwilling to let me out of his sight. Then I discover something impossible. The history I remember is a lie. The villainess I replaced may have been humanity’s greatest protector, and the man destined to kill me remembers a love neither of us should have shared. Someone erased our past. Someone is manipulating the apocalypse. And the man responsible for the world’s suffering is preparing to finish what he started. I entered this world to survive a story already written. Now I’ll destroy the ending, expose its author, and decide who deserves to survive the apocalypse. Even if the man I am falling for once held my life in his hands.

When the world ends, only the strongest survive. Hurricanes. Floods. Deadly cold. Scorching heat. Earthquakes. Tsunamis. Insect swarms. Acid rain. When disaster struck, Evelyn took in Hans and Tamara. They repaid her by stealing her moonstone pendant, eating every last bit of her food, and using her until she had nothing left. Then they threw her into a zombie horde. When Evelyn opens her eyes again, she is back three days before the apocalypse. This time, she will be ready. And everyone who betrayed her will pay. With a knife in her hand and a dog at her side, Evelyn will carve a path through a world where civilization is gone and morality means nothing.

Reborn Before the End Blurb Blurb She died once. She will not die again. Elara Vance died in the flames of an apocalypse that consumed the world, betrayed by the man she loved, abandoned to burn while he saved another woman and their child. Her final moments were filled with nothing but regret and hatred. Then she woke up. Three months before the end of everything, Elara is the only person on Earth who remembers what is coming. The collapsing sky. The mutated creatures. The mysterious energy that will destroy civilization as she knows it. Now she has a choice: waste her second chance on the man who destroyed her, or use it to prepare for the war ahead.

For seven years, Mara Ellison gave her husband's family everything she had. Her pay, her sleep, her savings, her name. When the flood hit and one seat was left on the evacuation truck, Grant Hollis gave it to his mistress and his son. Mara drowned in the dark, and on the way down she found out the rest. The boy was his. And the inheritance her grandfather left her had been kept from her by the aunt who raised her. She opens her eyes sixty days before the first rain. Her mother-in-law is already ordering her to hand over her savings. This time Mara looks around the room and says, "I want a divorce." Everyone thinks she has lost her mind. She sells, buys, builds and trains while the city laughs at her. Then the water comes on the exact day she said it would, and the people who left her to die are standing at her door, begging. But Mara is not the only one who came back.
