Action Apocalypse Web Novels & Independent Post-apocalyptic Stories

Emma was betrayed by the two people she trusted most—her boyfriend Daniel and her younger sister Lily. After surviving two brutal years of an apocalypse caused by the mysterious red rain, Emma is eventually killed by the people she once called family. Just when she believes everything is over, an Apocalypse Survival System awakens and sends her back thirty days before the red rain falls. Given a second chance, Emma decides she will never make the same mistakes again. She will prepare for the apocalypse, protect her parents, build a powerful and trustworthy refuge, and make sure Daniel and Lily can never betray her again.

Joanna wakes up from a dream six months before the apocalypse. In her dream she lived 5 years into the apocalypse before she was sold to an enemy base by her mom and sister after they betrayed her. She decides to rewrite her ending by upgrading her secret storage space and building an elite team of fighters who will battle zombies, gain superpowers, and keep her from becoming an experiment to the enemy base.

They took everything from her. Now she's building something they can't touch. Emma spent years as the invisible backbone of the Smith family, cooking, cleaning, working, sacrificing while her husband Derek and his adopted sister Rachel treated her like a servant. When they finally discarded her, they thought she would crawl back, desperate and broken. They were wrong. Now Emma lives across the street in the old farmhouse, a house she bought with cash they never knew she had, and she's not just renovating, she's preparing, stockpiling supplies, reinforcing walls and building a bunker. When the Smiths discover her wealth, their greed awakens. They want her back, they want her money and they want to control her again. But Emma isn't the woman they threw away. She's patient, watching, and she knows something they don't. The world is about to change, and when it does, the people across the street will come begging. She'll be ready.

Forty-five days before the world freezes, Lena gets a second chance at life. In her first life, she watched helplessly as her husband, Adrian, chose his mistress over her and their six-year-old son. Left outside in the deadly snow, Lena and Noah froze to death while the people who betrayed them stayed warm and safe. But death was not the end. Reborn with memories of the coming apocalypse, Lena has only one goal: protect her son and make sure no one ever has the power to hurt them again. She divorces Adrian, takes a massive loan, and begins building a heavily fortified underground bunker in the middle of nowhere. Everyone thinks she has gone insane. Adrian mocks her, his mistress celebrates her downfall, and the world continues as if nothing is wrong. But as the temperature begins to drop, Lena discovers she isn't the only one preparing for the end. Marco Steel, Adrian's powerful rival, is building a bunker of his own. When the Great Freeze finally arrives, the people who laughed at Lena will beg for her help. And Adrian? He will learn that some regrets come too late.

The last thing Nessa Calder remembers is her husband's hand closing the rescue-boat gate. There was room for his mistress. There was room for the supplies Nessa had carried through a drowning city. There was no room for her. Then she wakes sixty days before the first storm. This time, the thirty-two-year-old cold-chain engineer refuses to sign away her mother's depot, leaves her marriage, and spends her inheritance on the things the coming apocalypse will make priceless: clean water, heat, medicine, and doors that hold. A strange storage space gives her a small advantage. It cannot make food, shelter a person, or tell her which memory will fail next. Her preparations attract Gideon Shaw, a former maritime rescue commander with his own boat, equipment, and reasons to distrust people who promise safety. Their first agreement concerns a damaged loading berth. The next could decide who survives the flood. As power fails and the streets disappear, Nessa's husband returns to demand a place inside her gates. So do neighbors, desperate strangers, and an old friend whose loyalty has a price Nessa does not yet understand. Protecting her supplies is becoming easier than deciding whom to protect with them. Then the temperature drops weeks before it should, and an enemy reaches a supply route she told only her closest companions. Nessa has survived this world's ending once. Who has already made her preparations part of theirs?
