On the outer edge of the horde, one of the newly turned zombies was little more than a skeleton with scraps of flesh clinging to the bone. Half its skull had been chewed away, and crimson gore dripped from its gaping mouth.

It stretched out a hand with only a pinky finger left intact, dangling strips of raw flesh trembling as it staggered toward Theresa with a guttural snarl.

Theresa had no blade in hand. She braced herself to unleash her ability when a loud voice rang out from one corner of the castle.

“Theresa!”

At once, the mass of zombies charging her shifted direction, turning toward the sound.

On the third–floor window, she caught sight of Graham.

“Graham!”

He pointed urgently to the far west side of the building. Following his gesture, Theresa spotted a white strip of cloth hanging down. Dave’s head appeared at the window. He said nothing, just waved frantically, urging them to come his way.

Theresa didn’t hesitate. Ignoring the snapping jaws lunging at her, she led her group straight toward the west wall.

Within half a minute, they arrived beneath the dangling cloth. Theresa quickly lifted Vinny

1. up.

“Can you climb?”

“Yes!” Vinny grabbed the sheet, her small frame nimble as she kicked off the wall and scrambled upward with ease.

…

Meanwhile, Kyle and Tyger held the line, hacking down zombies at the base. Sage and his shadow, Drew, made no move to fight.

“We’ll head up first,” Sage said casually.

Theresa shot him a glare. “Go on!” She would’ve happily left him behind if she could.

Just then, he thrust a blade into her hand. “Yours is broken, isn’t it? Use this.” Without waiting for her response, he shoved the hilt against her palm and climbed the sheet himself.

With a weapon back in her grip, Theresa cut down zombies with fluid, practiced ease until her

turn came.

Once Sage and Drew were inside, she ordered Tyger and Kyle up after them, leaving herself at the rear. One by one, the rest clambered through the window.

Finally, Theresa sheathed the knife, cast an Aeroshield to push back the closest dead, and hauled herself onto the cloth. She was nearly there when she spotted a stranger among the group above—a woman she didn’t recognize.

The others hauled her up like a team in tug–of–war, no effort needed on her part. The woman stepped in eagerly to help.

“Step aside,” Tyger barked. “We don’t need you.”

“I just want to help. One more pair of hands is better than none.” Her voice was sweet, her demeanor all sunshine and innocence. She reached out with long painted nails and grabbed the cloth.

A ripping sound split the air. The sheet tore under her claws.

The lifeline in Theresa’s hands went slack, and the fabric ripped apart beneath her.

In that instant, countless arms shot out the window. Sage leaned halfway out, seizing Theresa’s wrist. Quentin lunged next, grabbing hold of her other hand by instinct alone.

Kyle and Tyger clutched the torn sections of cloth while Dave and several others leaned dangerously far out, straining to pull her back. Even Vinny, who had stayed obediently quiet, rushed to the sill with wide eyes.

“Boss!”

“Theresa!”

Together, they hauled her inside before she could fall,

When she landed safely, every pair of eyes fixed on her with raw concern.
