I walk over to the other side of the bed and sit down.

I grab Zero's hand and stroke it.

Zero starts to calm down.

I smile.

"I'll keep you safe, sweetheart," I whispered while smiling knowing if she heard me, she would of kicked me.

************************************************

This is a story about a girl named Sage Frost, a.k.a Zero, who lost everyone she loved from the very 
beginning of the zombie apocalypse. 

She has been alone ever since. 

But then a group shows up and wants to save her. 

She meets Axel, their leader, who partically falls in love with Zero at first sight.

Will she love again after everything she's been through? Will this group give her another reason to live?

Or

Will she run away from everything and drown in her own demons and fears?

I suck at introductions. I promise the story will be better!

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
