Back by popular request! The 2017 rough draft of The Virus Within! (Caution: Contains massive plotholes that were fixed in the polished The Virus Within Series. Grammar issues are present, particularly missing commas.) What do you do when you are one of the infected? The virus in my blood is trying to steal my humanity. It alters my very thoughts and reactions. It taunts me by tempting me with desires that it planted in my brain. These bloodthirsty desires would lead to my demise if I ever gave in. I have more in common with the zombies than with humans at this point. Even the fallen zombies accept me as one of their own. Blood is required to retain my grip on sanity, but the sweet-smelling blood from humans is a short path to madness. Human blood is to be avoided at all costs. Humankind around the world was driven close to extinction by the sudden appearance of the zombies, yet small groups of survivors constantly manage to appear and put my control to the test. -------------------------- This is a standalone zombie book. It has nothing to do with A Different Virus. I wanted to try a book with an easily irritated main character and a nutcase secondary character. This book has a slightly darker outlook at the beginning than my usual stories, but it has some humor further along. Definitely not a horror story, although it has its share of action. 4 updates a week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday! Copyright April 2017. All Rights Reserved.

After dying from literal overwork, I woke up as Elara von Steiner, a minor villain in a novel destined to be executed in Chapter 3. My new job? I'm the wretched governess to Kaelen Voronoff, the "cursed child" who grows up to be the continent's greatest villain. My executioner? His uncle, the terrifyingly handsome and cold-hearted Male Lead, Duke Zander Voronoff. But just as I'm about to follow the original script and meet my doom, a blue window pops up. [A Main Scenario has Arrived!] [Choose Your Action:] [Original Path] Abuse the child. (Result: 100% chance of execution) [Indifference] Ignore the child. (Result: 99% chance of execution) [Improvise] ...Survive? I refuse to die a second time. I'll use my knowledge of the novel and this new "system" to change my fate. I just have to raise a traumatized future-villain, avoid the psycho Duke who's fated to kill me, and somehow find a way to live. But the system is tricky, the child is far more broken than I had realized, and the Duke... The Duke is getting suspiciously interested. This isn't childcare. This is a survival mission.

"Didn't you like me?" he asked. "I didn't." He frowned. "Then... do you hate me?" "I don't." "...Then what do you think of me?" "An annoying moron." "I'm already sleep-deprived," I said flatly. "Why should I think about something else?" -- The game said she would die if she attended the academy. 
It also said she would die if she didn't. Either way, her death was guaranteed. So when I opened my eyes in the body of Melissa Valkyrie, a doomed noble lady fated to die in every route, I did what any sensible person would do: Nothing. No schemes.
No revenge.
No desperate attempts to "fix" the story.
No scrambling to survive a game that had already decided my ending. If death flags wanted me, they could wait until after my nap. -- Suddenly, the male lead walked over and placed my notes on the desk. "How did you solve these problems and still get a D in Mathematics?" I didn't look up. "Why answer all of them," I said "when the professor said the passing score is only thirty?" "Anything more is a violation of mental health." -- But unfortunately, the world mistook my laziness for confidence. 
And now everyone thinks I'm dangerous. Because apparently, doing nothing was the most dangerous move of all.
