In a world scorched by ruin and infected, Aurora Hill is one of the last remaining doctors with the knowledge and skill to change everything. She believes, that Ellie Williams may be humanity's last hope for a cure. Joel was the man who destroyed it.
He should've killed her like everyone else in that room.
Instead, he took her with him...
Now on the run from the still collapsing world Joel and Aurora are forced into an uneasy alliance to survive 'till they reach Wyoming. He thinks she's a cold fanatic, who was ready to sacrifice a child. She thinks he's a selfish murderer pretending to be a father. Every conversation is a landmine. Every glance is a silent war. And yet they are...
Enemies by fate. Survivors by necessity. Lovers by accident.

A Wolf Under Scar's Skin
Isaac's top scar killer suddenly had a change of heart? In this story, Akira is Lev and Yaras' older sister. The story is the same before Abby meets them. Here is a brief overview: TLOU part 1: Joel delivers Ellie to the Fireflies in Salt Lake City. She has to go because she is immune to the cordyceps virus, and they think they can make a cure/vaccine. Joel finds out that the only way to make the cure/vaccine is to kill Ellie and take the cordyceps off of her brain. He ends up killing everybody in the hospital, including the doctor. TLOU part 2: We find out that the doctor was Abby's dad. Her and a few survivors from the hospital become a part of The WLF (Washington Liberation Front) based in Seattle. She is out for revenge. 5 years later, she finds Joel and kills him in front of Ellie. She went back to seattle. A few months later, a bunch of WLF soldiers come back in body bags. She heard a rumor from a mutual friend, that Abby's friend/ ex-boyfriend, Owen, was the purpose of one of the deaths. She ends up going after him (he was at the Seattle Aquarium, his personal hideout) to see what actually happened. On her way there, she got kidnapped by Seraphites (a cult who is at war with the WLF). The story begins with her being hung up. I work retail and I've been super behind these last few months, I will be posting once every other wednesday from now on.

Their paths keep crossing against all odds as they face their own consequences of betrayal and selfishness while trying to survive in this world. When it comes down to it, who will she choose?

Shadow of Death
For the last six years, you've lived in relative comfort as a citizen of Jackson, Wyoming. You should feel lucky to be part of a strong, thriving community and dwell safely behind sturdy walls. But you don't. Not when you didn't deserve it. The real story behind your sister's passing is a truth you can't bear anyone to know. You try to smother the guilt, try to keep your days full with work at the stables and other tasks of mundane nature, but the ghost of her continues to hang over you after all this time. Things threaten to boil over when your best friend Tommy asks an important favor of you involving his surly older brother - one you'd really rather not agree to, but find yourself signing up for without much of a choice. Putting up with him is no walk in the park at first. But, much to your surprise, the shadow of death clings to Joel Miller too, and so maybe it was only inevitable that a connection was to be made between a pair of tortured souls with dirty little secrets. "Everything you love is very likely to be lost, but in the end, love will return in a different way." - Franz Kafka

Yet now, you would do just about anything to have his brother look at you with the same warmth and wanting. You wanted to hate Joel Miller, wanted to feel nothing but disgust as you looked at him but you never could... and so in turn, you allowed him to ruin you over and over in every sense of the word.Complete
