Apocalypse Z

Je suis la meilleure faussaire d'art et spécialiste du renseignement de Chicago. Et je suis tombée amoureuse de l'homme qui possédait tout, Don Vincenzo Russo. Pendant dix ans, j'ai été son secret, son arme, et sa femme. J'ai bâti son empire depuis l'ombre. Je pensais obtenir une bague. Après tout, chaque nuit qu'il passait dans cette ville, il était enfoui en moi, prenant son plaisir. Il murmurait que j'étais à lui, que personne d'autre ne lui procurait autant de plaisir. Mais cette fois, après en avoir fini avec moi, il a annoncé qu'il épousait la princesse de la Bratva russe, Katerina Petrov. C'est à ce moment-là que j'ai su. Je n'étais pas sa femme. J'étais juste un corps. Pour une alliance, pour elle, il m'a sacrifiée. Il m'a laissée mourir. Alors j'ai détruit chaque élément de la vie qu'il m'avait donné. J'ai passé un appel à mon père en Italie. Et puis, j'ai disparu. Mais quand le Parrain qui possédait Chicago n'a pas pu retrouver son jouet préféré… il est devenu fou.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

On our sixth wedding anniversary, I felt a seam split open in my skull. Not from pain, but from truth. “Ethan, that new assistant… how does she taste?” Marcus’s thought, slick as oil. Ethan's reply slithered through my veins: "Young. Tender. Like summer berries." His lips shaped a lie. His hand shielded me from the crowd, even as his fingers pressed a blood-red cocktail into my palm. "Don't let Lena find out,"he thought, the words clear as speech. "I’d in a big trouble." Laughter swirled. Champagne clinked.their mind. Nobody knew I could hear every thought ,the ability to read minds awakened in me last night. . Nobody knew I had already known about his betrayal long ago. There were no tears, no screams I just replied “yes” to Professor Johnson’s encrypted call-the path I should have chosen six years ago. In three days, I would vanish. Not running from him. Running back to who I was at twenty—the rising star of virus research.

For my birthday, my husband, Don Damien, gave me his dead wife’s pearls. I wore them to the dinner party. My enraged stepson, Leo, doused me in red wine. I became the laughingstock of the party. “You whore,” he hissed. “You think wearing my mother’s jewelry makes you her?” He stared at me, his eyes cold as ice. Then he screamed. "Get out of my house." But his mother died when he was a baby. I raised him. Someone had whispered poison in his ear. They told him I was the one who killed his mother. Now he thinks I'm a scheming bitch who tricked his father. And his father? My husband? He never saw me. He only saw Krista’s ghost. My heart didn't break. It shattered. They didn't love me. They didn't even care. So I walked. Then why, after I was finally gone, did they come crawling back, begging me to return?

In my past life, my mate, Rowan, left me and our newborn daughter in a remote village to fight for the Alpha title. Before he left, he promised me, "When I become Alpha, you will be my Luna. I'll make you the most respected wolf in the pack." I waited for three years, my daughter and I scraping by, often going hungry and cold. But I didn't learn the truth until I secretly traveled to the Blackstone Pack to find him, only to be beaten and cast out as a rogue. It turned out he had already accepted the former Alpha's terms: he would take his late brother's widow, Isabelle, and her children as his own, and in return, become the new Alpha. Furious, I tried to confront Rowan, but Isabelle poisoned me with wolfsbane. As I lay dying, I saw Rowan hold Isabelle gently and say, "Good. She's dead. Even if she had lived, you were always going to be my Luna." When I opened my eyes again, I was reborn on the very day Rowan was to inherit the Alpha title. This time, I took my daughter and went straight to my father, the Alpha of the Silver Moon Pack. "Father," I cried, "I was wrong. I want to sever my mate bond with him!"

I'm the strongest warrior of the Silvermoon Pack. For ten years, I've been secretly in love with my Alpha, Aiden. The only wolfless Alpha. We grew up with nothing but each other. I bled for him. I cut down his enemies and searched for a cure to awaken his wolf. He promised me a place at the top—always by his side. The fated mate bond never snapped into place for us. It didn't matter. I loved him anyway. Then I found out the truth. His heart belonged to someone else. A she-wolf named Gianna. When a rival pack kidnapped her, Aiden sent me to get her back. I did, but I died. And so did my wolf. He welcomed Gianna home with open arms, ready for their Mating Ceremony, but he refused to believe I was dead. He thought I was just jealous, hiding in a fit of rage. He even ordered my banishment. But on the night of the full moon, as the entire pack gathered for their Alpha’s ceremony, my second-in-command crashed the altar in his war truck. He walked toward Aiden, carrying my blood-soaked body. Aiden’s body trembled. He collapsed to his knees, clutching his chest in agony. "I can feel it. The mate bond…it’s breaking. Rhea was my fated mate... How can she be dead?!"

Three years married to Victor, the Don, and as far as New York was concerned, we were untouchable. Until my own car was in the shop, so I took his daily driver from the garage. On the way, I activated the car's smart system and said, "Navigate home." But the screen pinpointed a place I had never seen before — a villa in the suburbs. Then, a sugary-sweet voice floated from the speakers: "Okay! Setting course for Victor and Mia's secret castle." My stomach dropped. Who was Mia? And what secret castle? Without a second thought, I dialed his number. "The home address is set to some strange place." He just laughed it off. "Oh, that. One of my guys' car broke down the other day. I let him use mine to drop someone off." "Okay, no problem," I said, smiling into the phone. I ended the call and pulled up the navigation history. That villa address was listed seventeen times, every single one on a day Victor was supposedly "out of town on business." I fired up the engine and drove.

Di pabrik perhiasan pribadi milik Keluarga Gamar, cincin pernikahan yang aku tunggu selama enam bulan, sekarang melingkar di jari wanita lain. Di jari Greta Gantari. Seorang supermodel internasional, wanita yang jadi selingkuhan tunanganku, Ketua Mafia dari Keluarga Gamar. Direktur pabrik perhiasan berdiri di samping, keringat dingin basahi punggungnya saat dia melirik Marcel Gamar yang duduk santai di sofa. Marcel bangkit. Dia raih tangan Greta, angkat tangan itu ke arah cahaya untuk kagumi cincin itu. Nada suaranya dingin, nggak kasih ruang untuk dibantah. "Dia akan tampil di acara peragaan busana di Penida minggu depan. Dia butuh cincin ini untuk curi perhatian dunia kalangan elite. Brankas keluarga penuh dengan perhiasan. Pilih yang lain saja, nggak usah lebay." Di bawah cahaya lampu yang menyilaukan, Greta menatap bayangannya di cermin, senyumnya angkuh penuh kemenangan. Aku lalu menatap diriku sendiri. Sweater kasmir dan celana jeans. Aku nggak cocok ada di sini. Pernikahan yang telah direncanakan selama setahun itu ... tiba-tiba rasanya seperti lelucon. Aku nggak marah. Aku cuma batalkan gaun pengantin pesananku sekaligus. "Marcel. Perhiasan lain juga nggak masalah. Tapi, aku nggak jadi nikah."

Bima is just an introverted, scrawny kid used to living behind a gaming screen and being a constant target for body shaming. But his life takes a drastic turn when he wakes up in a ruined city crawling with zombies. In the midst of the chaos, something even stranger than the apocalypse emerges: the "Single Survival System," which hits him with absurd missions likes maintaining an ideal BMI, getting revenge on his bullies, and landing his first kiss. Every mission isn't just a ridiculous challenge; it’s a matter of life and death. Forced out of his comfort zone, Bima must face his dark past. He crosses paths with Donny, his former bully who is now a zombie, and Kevin, an ex-gym influencer who has transformed into a fanatical cult leader obsessed with the perfect physique and extreme protein intake. Amidst the chaos, Bima meets Lia, a tough convenience store clerk who harbors a deep-seated trauma toward food. Together, they survive nonsensical threats, ranging from zombie food vloggers obsessed with livestreaming death to grotesque mutants lurking underground. But the madness is only the beginning. Bima’s reckless actions catch the attention of a far more dangerous entity: the Master AI Fitness Freak, an artificial intelligence that views humans as inefficient unless they meet extreme nutritional standards. With the help of Riska, an AI with cold, business-like logic that shares a secret connection to Bima’s past, the battle shifts into a clash of ideologies: perfection versus happiness. In a world that worships muscles, protein, and ruthless efficiency, Bima fights back in an unexpected way, using Indomie as a symbol of balance, hope, and humanity.
