It was supposed to be a way to end the devastation in the
Middle East, but instead a darkness has been unleashed unlike anything the
world has ever seen.
Ike Glass is well versed in chaos, but even he is unprepared for what the world
will become after the outbreak. Ace Cullen has been loyal to his country ever
since he was brought to the United States as a young boy, but it’s difficult to
stand by a country that can’t even take responsibility for their own actions.
Phoenix Blue just wants a night of mindless sex…is that too much to ask? Always
a black sheep, she shocks everyone as she finds the strength inside herself to
protect the ones she cares about and fight to see another day. They were
strangers when the virus took over, but tragedy will bring them together in
ways they never thought possible as they descend into the darkness.
EXCERPT
Ike
I’m soaking wet when I wake up
in the middle of the night, but as I reach up and touch my side of the bed and
clothes, I realize it’s not me. Robyn is drenched in sweat; it is seeping
through the bed sheets.
“Robyn.” I attempt to stir her by shaking her gently.
“Robyn.”
I turn on my bedside lamp quickly, illuminating our dark
room.
“Robyn, wake up.” When she finally stirs and opens her
eyes—more than one vein has popped in each of her eyes. My biggest fear has
just come true. I couldn’t protect her from the infection.
I’ve been careful not to come in contact with her saliva
or blood, but what about my daughter? “Robyn, you’re soaking wet babe, you
should change.”
I pull her up so she’s now seated on the bed, but she
looks disoriented, confused, and even a bit agitated.
“Why did you wake me up?” she slurs, semi-coherent.
“You’re running a fever.” I hurriedly grab a change of
clothes for her and help her into them before changing the bedspread and
putting her back to bed. They said the virus attacks unhealthy hosts at an
unusually fast rate…my wife has sickle cell anemia. The virus is probably
feasting on her unhealthy insides. I shudder at the thought.
Quickly, I make my way out into the hallway and over to
Asia’s room. She appears to be sleeping soundly, so I don’t wake her. I will
check on her in the morning. I feel sick to my stomach as I grab a knife from
the kitchen and carry it back to our bedroom. Instead of lying down next to
Robyn, I end up seated in the rocking chair in the far corner of the room,
silently watching her, gripping the knife tightly. I know I’m in denial. I know
that I’ve already lost her, but I can’t do it. No matter who or what she is
now, I can’t hurt my wife.
