The city was going wild. People--including Harley--were huddled around TVs in shop windows. There were two news anchors sitting at their desk, talking about how a crazed man went and bit and killed someone in Europe. And then how it started to spread.
But as he was speaking, Harley looked over to the woman on the screen. She had clawmarks all over her unusually pale skin and her breathing was unsteady and rapid. Almost. . . desperate. But then the screen blackened.
The city had never been calm, but as the mysterious illness started to spread here, the military came, shooting anyone in sight. Undead or alive, it didn't matter. To them, one less person alive was one less potential walking corpse. Harley was hiding behind the dumpster, facing her makeshift tent that she had called her home for about a year. All she could hear behind her was screaming, crying, and gunshots.

Night Disease
REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.
