Chapter Twenty-Two
It was almost two months since she’d been kidnapped and Kendra still hadn’t figured out where she was or how to escape. Her ride through the night on horseback with Baelil had been grueling and offensive as he’d made merry with her breasts to the point that her nipples were sore by the time the sun was on the horizon. With the light of day making it easy for his sister to observe his antics, he’d pulled his hand from beneath her shirt and simply held her abdomen so tight that her buttocks was jammed into his enlarged manhood. His occasional moan of pleasure when the horse’s gait grew ragged, making her backside rub into him in a suggestive way, made her want to vomit. He’d questioned her on multiple occasions as to when her cycle was due, but she refused to answer him.
Ari tried to converse with her a few times, but she too was met with silence. Not only did Kendra have no use for either of them, but her mind was occ

Olga leaned her back against the porch railing as she watched Rex slip through the perimeter fence and headed toward the house with his head hung low. She could tell by the slumping of his shoulders and his slow, methodical walk that he’d been unsuccessful in his search for Kendra, once again.As he climbed the stairs, she said in a mournful tone, “That girl is like a daughter to me, so it pains me to say this, but it’s been several months… maybe we should stop torturing ourselves. She’s more than likely in the hands of the alien regime. All we can hope for is that they entered her into the reproduction program and not done worse with her.”“The regime isn’t all alien,” Rex said in an off-handed way.“The people in charge are owned by the aliens. Don’t make the mistake of thinking differently.”“I should have gone after her right away.

Ari sauntered up to the bench where Kendra sat reading a book. “Is it good?” she asked as she slid onto the seat next to her. When Kendra made no move to acknowledge her presence, she added. “For crying out loud, Kendra. It’s been a few months now. You’re married to my brother and carrying his child as well. That connects us. We’re family. Sisters. When are you going to stop ignoring me?”“Maybe when hell freezes over,” Kendra said as she turned a page of her book while never taking her eyes off of it.“You didn’t strike me as being so hateful when we first met.”“Maybe you’re not as good at reading people as I am. I distrusted you from the start and I see that I was right in doing so,” Kendra said as she slowly closed the book and turned to face Ari. “Let me say this as clearly as I can so that there is no misunderstanding. I don’t
Where Zombies Walk (Book 1 Kendra's Journey) Chapter Twenty-Five
Olga leaned against the tree trunk as she rummaged for her water jug. The day felt excessively warm with a high humidity factor. It was the humidity that she found the most difficult to deal with. Normally, the atmosphere was almost desert dry, but this new country that they were walking through had an abundance of plant life which promoted the humidity. It was almost as if they’d entered a different world; or a different dimension at the very least. As she seized the opportunity to rest, she thought back over the last week.They’d taken a few days to deal with the carcasses of the zombies that had wandered into the compound and then reinforce the fencing. During this time, Olga explained to Rex that she’d inoculated him against the zombie virus. Upon his shocked response, she divulged that she, her brother, and his wife were the scientists who were involved in the creation of the virus. Felix and Kendra knew about her brother and his wife&

Kendra stopped short in the middle of her afternoon walk and cocked her head to the side as she watched Ari lead her mare across the center greens toward the stable. She’d left the village on assignment again.Even though she was married to Baelil and he was well respected, Kendra was still looked upon as an outsider who hadn’t proved that she deserved to be included in village information. Kendra didn’t care about that because she didn’t want to be a member of the community. She wanted to go home. But, the fact that they were careful with what they said around her made it difficult for her to learn things about where she was and how she might escape.It took her several months of slow, afternoon walks where she’d nonchalantly meander past a few citizens and eaves drop on their conversation as inconspicuously as possible and a few clever chats with Ari -who seemed almost desperate for her friendship- to learn that there was som

Getting past the evening patrols on her way to the stables wasn’t as easy as Kendra thought it would be. The energy of the village changed drastically from the casualness of her afternoon walks. Besides the fact that the patrolmen were far more alert when the sun went down, there was no crowd for her to blend with. She was about to let panic take over when she saw Ari saunter over to a tall, slender, young looking patrolman that was pacing outside of the stable entrance and strike up a conversation with him. Seizing the opportunity, she quietly slipped into the stables and hid while she listened to Ari and the guard’s jovial interaction.Mild annoyance replaced the panic in her as she counted the seconds of unnecessary small talk between Ari and the patrolman. Thinking she was on a failed mission, her mind worked double time to come up with a way to accomplish escape without Ari’s help. She was about to slip back out of the stab
Where Zombies Walk (Book 1 Kendra's Journey) Chapter Twenty-Eight
Kendra’s body felt locked in position by the time the storm passed and she was able to crawl out from the pseudo protection of the thicket. She was miserable. Her clothes were wet and clinging to her flesh, her muscles were tight and sore, her head felt like someone was beating the inside of her skull with a sledge hammer, and her stomach was bellowing as loud as it could in its demand for food. To add to it all, the baby was protesting her decision to leave the comfort and security of Center Land Village by kicking at her ribs and doing flips like a circus performer. The only positive factor was that it was a warm and balmy morning so that, although uncomfortable in wet clothes, she was at least not freezing and at risk of getting sick. She did, however, take a moment to remove her tee shirt and hoodie to ring them out as best as she could.After putting the damp tee shirt back on and tying the hoodie around her waist by its sleeves, she p

The trip back to the compound took longer than they would have liked, but neither Rex nor Olga wanted to push the very pregnant Kendra. Realizing how close she was to the end of her gestation time, Olga feared that excessive stress could bring on an early birth. She actually expressed her concern to her niece about the fact that she’d run away from her captors so close to the delivery date, but Kendra was adamant that she had to seize the opportunity when it arose. Olga couldn’t argue with that logic. Not one bit.They encountered a few stray zombies on the two day walk home, but Rex handled things quickly and without mishap. It was as if dealing with walking corpses had become second nature to him. Kendra thought about mentioning the look in the eyes of the zombies who had surrounded the tree that she’d climbed into for safety, but then thought better of it. That conversation could wait for another day.The compound had

Rex paced the porch as he processed the story that Olga had just shared with him. A myriad of emotions surged through him like angry ocean waves slamming against a rocky shore. The thought of that snake, Baelil, forcing himself on his poor Kendra ripped him up inside. Thinking of her being forced to parade around the room naked for his months of pleasure was torturous. He slammed his powerful fist into the palm of his hand as he visualized punching Baelil’s head right off of his body.He could understand why Kendra would agree to the marriage in order to avoid being placed into a breeding rotation. Even though it was a made up reality for those in Center Land Village, such a set up was very, very real within the alien governed part of the world. It made sense that Kendra would believe it without question.He closed his eyes as he struggled to maintain control of his faculties. In the months that he’d been a member of this
