Chapter 1
My name is Jack Morris, I'm thirty-two, and I used to be the youngest captain in the New York Fire Department. But that was before the zombie virus outbreak.
March 15, 2024, the day that changed everything. I will always remember the image of Amelia White sitting in the coffee shop across from me—her long, golden hair cascading over her shoulders, her lake-blue eyes gleaming with tension. She wanted to break up with me.
"Jack, we're not right for each other." Her voice was as light as a feather, yet heavy enough to crush a man's chest. "I love Adam, and I always have."
Adam Kane, that damned Wall Street elite. Blonde, blue-eyed, incredibly wealthy, a prince driving a Maserati. And I'm just a firefighter rushing into a burning building to save people. Six feet two inches tall, muscular, scarred—these things seem rough and unsightly next to his perfect face.
We've been together for eight months. In those eight months, I thought I had melted the iceberg in her heart, that she had finally learned to love an ordinary person. But now I realize that I was just a stepping stone between her and true love.
"Amelia, I know I'm not as rich as him, but..." I wanted to persuade her, to convince her that I had a sincere heart and the determination to give everything for her.
"It's not about the money," she said, avoiding my gaze, her slender fingers gripping the coffee cup tightly. "It's about the feeling. With you, I don't feel that spark."
Heart flutter. What a cruel word. I fluttered my heart for her for eight months, but she never fluttered my heart for even a second.
Before I could stop them, a heart-wrenching scream came from outside the window.
On the street, a ragged homeless man was tearing at the throat of a passerby. Blood splattered on the glass window of the coffee shop. The bitten man twitched a few times, then... stood up, his eyes filled with nothing but bloodthirsty madness.
"What the hell is this?" Emilia grabbed my arm in horror.
I immediately stood up, my professional instincts driving me to quickly assess the situation. More infected people poured in from all directions, their movements stiff but aggressive, emitting beast-like growls. Within minutes, the entire city of New York was plunged into chaos.
Cars slammed to a halt and crashed into each other; drivers abandoned their vehicles and fled. Shop windows shattered, and screams of agony echoed from inside. Military helicopters began circling overhead, their loudspeakers blaring a chilling voice: "All civilians evacuate immediately! This is not a drill! Repeat, this is not a drill!"
"Stay close to me!" I grabbed Emilia's hand and rushed towards the back door. No matter what she had just said, I couldn't let her die here.
But I knew what she was thinking—she was thinking of Adam. The man who was working in Manhattan's financial district right now.
We rushed out of the coffee shop, the streets filled with blood and screams. A woman in a business suit was being attacked by three zombies, her screams piercing the sky; an old man was pushing his wife in a wheelchair, running frantically, but they were quickly overtaken and disappeared together into a horde of zombies; a school bus lay overturned on the side of the road, the cries and pleas for help of children coming from inside.
This is the beginning of the end of the world. The collapse of civilization, the test of humanity, a game of life and death.
"Adam! I need to find Adam!" Emilia struggled to run towards Manhattan.
"Are you crazy? That's the most dangerous place!" I held her tightly. Manhattan is the most bustling part of New York, with the highest population density; it's definitely a sea of zombies now. "Let's get to a safe place first!"
The tears and despair in her eyes pierced my heart. Even in this life-or-death situation, she was still thinking of another man. Love can be so cruel sometimes; it can make a person forget themselves, forget danger, and even forget the instinct to survive.
We ran for a long time in the chaos, and I used my firefighter experience to guide her through alleys, avoiding most of the zombie hordes. My physical training came in handy at this point, and although Emilia was wearing high heels, fear gave her strength.
Finally, we took refuge in an abandoned supermarket. It had been under renovation, so there were no customers, making it relatively safe. I blocked the door with shelves and checked all possible entrances to make sure we were safe for the time being.
Emilia huddled in the corner, dialing Adam's number repeatedly. Her fingers trembled as she pressed the numbers, over and over again, but the line was always busy.
"Please answer...please answer..." her voice was choked with sobs.
The phone network was down, but she refused to believe it. She preferred to believe that Adam was just too busy to answer the phone at the moment.
That night, I stood guard at the door, a hammer I'd found in the toolbox, listening to the howls of zombies outside, watching Emilia weep for another man. I finally understood what it meant to be utterly heartbroken.
The sounds outside were incessant: the roars of zombies, the screams of humans, and the distant explosions. Occasionally, living people would pass by; we could hear hurried footsteps and suppressed conversations, but I dared not open the door. In this situation, strangers might be more dangerous than zombies.
"Jack." In the dead of night, Emilia suddenly spoke, her voice hoarse.
"Um?"
"If...if we survive, can you help me find Adam?"
My heart was torn apart again. Even in this desperate situation, she was still thinking of him.
"Yes," I agreed reluctantly. "Once all this is over, I'll take you to him."
But I still love her. Even though she just rejected me, even though she has someone else in her heart, I'm still willing to give everything for her. Love is just like that—blind, irrational.
As dawn broke, the sounds outside gradually subsided. Emilia, exhausted from crying, fell asleep against the wall. I gently took off my coat and covered her with it, looking at her pale face.
Even in her sleep, her brow was furrowed, and she murmured Adam's name.
"Once all this is over, I'll take you to him," I whispered to her, though I knew she couldn't hear me.
What I didn't know was that this promise would become the biggest mistake of my life. Nor did I know that three years later, this very woman I had risked everything to protect would end my life with her own hands on our wedding night.
If I had known the ending back then, perhaps I would have chosen to turn away. But young love is always terrifyingly blind.
The world outside is no longer what we know. The zombie virus swept the globe in just a few days, paralyzing governments, routing armies, and collapsing human civilization in an instant. Power was cut off, communications were severed, and law and order vanished.
This once bustling metropolis has now become a living hell. And I, Jack Morris, am about to begin the most painful and longest three years of my life.
At that time, I had no idea what love would become in the apocalypse. I thought that as long as I was sincere and persistent enough, I would eventually win her heart.
How naive I was.

Love's Deadly Equation
I was sent to her.
To watch her. To protect her. And, when the order comes… to kill her.
My name is Keegan Caffery. I’m the Carter Mafia’s best hitman. I don’t miss. I don’t fail.
At least, I didn’t use to.
I don’t know what it is about her that got to me first—her mouth, her mind, or the way she looks at me like I’m not what she should fear.
I’ve had a gun to her head since I walked into her life.
She knows it.
And she still doesn’t run.
She just watches me back like she’s studying a problem she refuses to call impossible.
She’s the one variable I can’t control.
And God help me… I don’t want to.
I have an order. I have loyalty. I have a trigger.
But every time I imagine it—
I can’t stand it.
Her or me. That’s the math.
It’s a deadly equation I don’t want to solve.
⬥ Maisie ⬥
I’m not ordinary. I stopped pretending long ago.
My name is Maisie Seo. IQ 145. Clinical genius.
Which sounds impressive until you realize what it actually means: I don’t fit anywhere people expect me to.
I see patterns everywhere. Outcomes before they happen. People like equations I’ve already solved.
It gets lonely in a world you’ve already figured out.
So I dull myself down. Smoke the edges off. Pretend, badly, to be the kind of normal that lets people stay.
Then he walked in.
I knew what he was immediately. Dangerous. Intentional. Wrong in all the right ways.
I should be afraid of him.
I keep waiting for that to kick in.
Instead, I’m fascinated.
Because for the first time in my life… I’ve found something I can’t solve.
He is my deadly equation.
Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.
Genevieve loses a bet she can’t afford to pay. In a compromise, she agrees to convince any man her opponent chooses to go home with her that night. What she doesn’t realize when her sister’s friend points out the brooding man sitting alone at the bar, is that man won’t be okay with just one night with her. No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
