Rebirth in the Apocalypse: Third Time's a Charm
What do you do when four men come into your life and completely turn it upside down? No, seriously, I have no idea. All I wanted to do was hide away on my ranch with no one to bother me, but apparently, they had different plans. Luckily for them, this was not my first zombie apocalypse. If they learn to listen, we might just get out of this with our lives. If not, maybe I would finally be able to rest in peace. ------ Li Dai Lu was born and raised Canadian in her first life. This meant that she was taught how to share, how to put others first and to keep the peace as much as she could. However, that all backfired in a spectacular way. Reborn in a new time and place, Li Dai Lu did her best to protect all those that she could from the zombies that were wiping out the human race. Unfortunately for her, those she rescued were not as grateful as they should have been. Killed by the very people she saved, she held her breath and waited for the calm, peacefulness of death. But the Fates were not too accommodating and our heroine woke up in her third life, a year before the zombie apocalypse. This time she would live life on her own terms and to those that disagreed... well, she would have a few words for them. With four men at her side, she will shed the cloak of civility and become who she was truly meant to be. This will turn into a reverse harem where she does not have to pick. There is no m/m.

Forgiven, But Not Forgotten
His words were like a bucket of iced cold water being poured onto me. My head snapped up as I looked at him, my eyes wide, my mouth open. He gave me a sad smile in return. "You didn't realize that, did you?" He seemed almost heartbroken as he said it.
I shook my head even as the first staple went into my back. No one had ever said something like that to me, not once. He chuckled as he dragged his index finger down my jawline and curled it under my chin. Gently bringing up my head so he could look at me eye to eye, I didn't notice the second clicking of the gun.
"You are not alone anymore. You don't have to become strong on your own. We are here, and we are a team. When you are not able to be strong, we will be. When you can't take another step forward, we will pick you up and carry you until you can. We are your sword and your shield against the world." He gently kissed me on my lips as a third staple closed another section of a gap.
