Their camp had never been solid; it was more like a shaky truce than a true team. With only a handful of people left and just enough supplies to get by, tension stayed low. No one had the strength to fight each other when every ounce of energy was devoted to survival.

They were cut off inside the office building, forgotten in the middle of the city. No scavengers ever came near this dead building, so they endured like castaways on a sinking raft.

If zombies hadn’t evolved and the walls had held, maybe they could’ve lasted like that.

Yet there was always a hierarchy. Desmond ruled at the top, hoarding supplies. Because of it, he ate better, looked stronger, and ran faster than the rest.

Now, holding Juno in his arms, he powered up the stairs past exhausted survivors.

By the twenty–third floor, Oakley collapsed.

“Mr. Trask!” he gasped, reaching out. “Please! Help me!”

Desmond’s eyes

flicked to the horde below. His decision was instant. He drove his boot into Oakley’s chest, sending him crashing back down the stairs.

“No!” Juno screamed.

Oakley hit the landing hard. The first zombie was on him before he could move, claws ripping at his face and teeth biting into his neck. Blood splattered across the ceiling like paint.

The frenzy began.

Even Matthew–once Oakley’s friend- sank his dead, gray–eyed face into the mess. His jaws clamped onto Oakley’s leg and ripped the limb free with one savage wrench.

Oakley’s scream echoed loudly through the stairwell, raw and almost too much to bear.

“You monster!” Juno hammered her fists against Desmond, her voice breaking. “You f*cking monster!”

Desmond snapped, his voice cutting sharply. “I’m finished with your nonsense! Keep it up you’ll be the next!”

and

Her fury froze into ice. She glared at him, then forced her eyes back to Oakley. In the middle of the feeding frenzy, his body stiffened. His eyes rolled open–gray and empty.

By that point, Desmond and the others had reached the twenty–fourth floor. Only eight of their group remained, including Juno and himself, each fleeing for their life..

Twenty–fifth floor.

Each step grew harder, their lungs burning and muscles aching with exertion.

The zombie horde behind them kept growing even more rapidly. Zombies never tire. If the survivors hesitated, the horde pressed on even harder. They were just one floor below now.

Twenty–sixth floor.

Only half a flight stood between them and the snapping jaws below. Those at the back swore they felt claws raking at their clothes.

Not here. Not like this. Keep running.

They pushed their bodies past the breaking point, hearts pounding like drums in their ears.

Twenty–seventh floor.

Light struck them like salvation.

The rooftop door had swung open, flooding the stairwell with sunlight and fresh air.

Wesley and Eli rush out first, then freeze as they look up. A helicopter hovered overhead, its blades chopping the air, with a rope ladder dangling toward them.

“Climb, if you want to live!” Theresa’s voice cut through the chaos.

The brothers lunged for the rope and scrambled upward. Cecilia clawed her way after them, panting.

Behind her came Desmond, dragging Juno. Two more stragglers stumbled desperately at the

rear.

When the rope ladder came into view, Desmond’s eyes lit up. He dropped Juno to her feet, spun around, and slammed the rooftop door shut.

The last two froze in horror.

The zombie horde was just seconds from reaching them. If they got through, the zombies would follow. Desmond wasn’t willing to take that risk. He was ready to sacrifice them
