Do you know what it feels like to have finally found that one person you know you're supposed to be with? Only to have that person to be snatched away from you.

'Sodalis Exsecratio' also known as 'The Soulmates Curse'

Even the name foreshadows something bad. It's a real curse that doesn't allow one to live a-happily-ever-after with their soulmate.
How are we supposed to overcome this?

The Virus Within: The Unranked (Book 4)

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
