Prion: Origins by AllyReid_

In a shattered world ravaged by a virus worse than death itself, River thought she'd escaped her past-until the outbreak from Russia unleashes horrors that challenge everything she thought she knew about survival. Escaping the cult that raised her, River is thrust into a new fight, where the infected aren't just mindless undead, but something far more dangerous. Teaming up with Kat, Frieda, and a group of battle-hardened survivors, River faces endless dangers: both monstrous creatures and the people willing to sacrifice anything to control the chaos. As River grapples with her haunting past and the brutal present, she's forced to confront the monsters within-both in herself and the world around her. But amid the chaos, she finds an unexpected source of strength and love in Malik, a friend who helps her rediscover trust and a reason to fight while learning to love. In a place where alliances are fragile and survival is a daily struggle, River must decide if humanity is worth saving or if she's become something else entirely. A harrowing story of survival, loyalty, love, and the fight for redemption in a world where every choice could be the last.

Zombies Vs Aliens: Respawn by krazydiamond

A comic apocalyptic sci-fi romp. The zombie apocalypse has come and gone, the world has ended, humanity has crumbled... Nobody told the aliens. Alien brains have some interesting side effects on the ravenous undead. Just ask zombie Li, who wakes up after a quick bite. The world is a wasteland, she's a walking corpse, and her 'snack' melted into a noxious puddle of goo. It's not her day. Determined to figure out what the hell happened to her world, Li hits the road, seeking others like herself. The end of the world brings strange company, and stranger enemies. Struggling to wrap her head around being a zombie and already Li's existence is in danger thanks to impending alien invasion. It's going to take more than a handful of quirky zombies to stop them. She's going to need some serious fire power, like the remnants of the human race. If she can find them. #7 in Science Fiction on 12/3/15 ***Second Place for Science Fiction in Best Fiction Competition*** ***Contains a sprinkling of strong language and zombie violence. No aliens or zombies were harmed in the making of this novel. Recommended for ages 15 and up.***

THE UNDEAD (Zombie x Reader) by DareAkamine

They're not supposed to feel. So why does this one seem... different? Zombies don't just develop feelings... not love, not empathy, not anything. They're mindless, flesh-hungry monsters driven by an unstoppable virus. No mercy, no second thoughts. Just kill or be killed. But somehow, this one isn't like the rest. (Y/N) is a lone survivor in a world overrun by the undead. Every day is a battle to stay alive, to find food, shelter, and some reason to keep going. When she stumbles upon a group of survivors, hope flickers but so does danger. Because something or someone is following her. A stalker. But not a typical one. He's infected. Dead. And yet... he seems to be obsessed with her. Protective. Territorial. Almost like he's in love. How is that even possible? Can a zombie really develop feelings or is something far darker at play? One thing's for sure is this apocalypse is about to get a whole lot bloodier. ⚠️ Warning: Contains graphic violence, blood, adult language, and some strong scenes. Reader discretion is advised.

" guess we get to go out together. " " the only way i'd want to. " When the world ended and the zombie apocalypse started, Heather Kasuga promised herself one thing: never trust anyone.

As cities burn and humanity collapses, survival means blood, bullets, and making choices that will break you. Heather swore she wouldn't get attached. Alejandro swore he wouldn't fall in love. Neither of them planned on dying for each other. ⚠️this story contains graphic descriptions of violence/ gore, strong language, and sexual content ⚠️

Nasaktan man, subalit nang malaman niyang nasa peligro ang buhay nito, she made a choice: to risk everything for the man who once saved her. The question is -- can she save him in time, or love will be the reason for her to become infected and lose her life in the process? Started: July 28, 2025
