In a world torn apart by an apocalyptic nightmare, a small group of survivors clings to the fragile thread of hope as they struggle to rebuild their lives. Stranded on an isolated island, they have learned to adapt, to farm, to fight, and to love once more.
At the heart of their fragile community is Jessie-strong, determined, and fiercely protective of those she loves. But when tragedy strikes, she is forced to confront her own darkness and the fractured world around her. As the group battles both the dead and the living, they will face unimaginable challenges that threaten to tear them apart.
Against the backdrop of survival and loss, the group's bonds are tested in ways they never expected, pushing them to question who they are, who they were, and what they're willing to fight for.
As the past catches up with them, will the survivors manage to hold onto the fragile peace they've created, or will the pain of their losses consume them all?

Evergreen
"It wasn't long now, time had ceased to exist. The world had become impoverished, crops have shrivelled to dust, wildlife slowly died out. There were only survivors now; groups of warriors scavenged to stay alive." My name isn't important, my story is not for the faint hearted. Caught up in a conspiracy and trapped with a turbulent heart, and ravenous for revenge. Natural Disaster, Infected experiment, Zombie apocolypse call it what you will but just remember... "The trees are always evergreen when we're together." Trigger Warnings: this will be a horror, post apocalyptic story. It will include violent scenes, gore, blood, some sexually explicit events in heavy detail. I won't include spoilers here until they've been posted. If you can survive all that then... welcome to the end of the world darlings.
