Chapter Thirty
Rex held his hand up to signal Felix to stop his horse. Without speaking, he pointed through the trees in the direction of a nearby clearing. Felix took a moment to study the scene before him, nodded, and dismounted. They slowly walked their horses toward an area that was dense with oversized bushes.
“That strange woman is wrinkled like Alice,” Felix whispered. “Do you think she has the disease as well?”
“Kendra has an arrow pointed at her,” Rex whispered back. “I want to get closer to hear what is being said.”
One of the mutation effects that Rex experienced from his early childhood nuclear contamination exposure was acute hearing. Therefore, he was the better person to move closer to listen. Realizing this, Felix nodded and took the reins of both horses.
Rex was gone only a matter of minutes before he returned white faced and shaking with anger. “Alice

“See here! What’s this all about?” Arthur bellowed as he moved to pull Alice off the back of Kendra’s horse. “What are you doing?”“She’s an alien!” Kendra barked as her legs instructed her horse to move away from him. “Don’t touch her.”Bewildered and speechless, Arthur’s faded eyes studied the three riders and their cargo.“She was trying to capture Kendra with these other two to breed with this one,” Rex said as he pointed to Ordry’s body that was slung over his horse behind him. “They’re aliens.”“I can’t believe…”Arthur said with dismay.“That you were bamboozled?” Felix said as a finish to his sentence. “Believe it. The bitch thought that she was going to mate with me to create hybrids. Can you stand it?”“So, that’s why you were so free to have

Kendra followed her aunt out of the containment building. Filling her lungs with the crisp night air, she reveled in the feeling of freedom. Being a bound captive of Alice and her alien friends for even that brief time had made a negative impact on her that brought forth the other bad memories of being badly used that she struggled to keep buried and would one day have to find a way to release.She’d stayed behind with her aunt after the others left to monitor the progress of the alien’s turning. It took several hours before they were beyond the intelligent zombie stage and beginning to rot. Since it took months for a human, Olga was pleased. By the time they left, the three alien zombies were lying on the floor, immobilized. She expected them to expire by morning.“I’m sorry that you went through that again,” Olga said as she put her arm around Kendra’s waist while they walked toward the hou

Felix entered the kitchen with a scowl on his face. The others were busy having breakfast. The only one missing was Arthur. He looked at his aunt with a raised brow. She slowly shook her head.Realizing that she wouldn’t welcome a question about Arthur’s whereabouts, he slid onto a stool and broached the topic of the three aliens instead.Grabbing a slice of bread he said, “I think we’re going to need hazmat suits to clean up after those three out there.”Olga set her cup on the counter and braced herself against the countertop with her elbows. “I haven’t been out there yet. What happened?”“It looks like they melted or something,” he replied as he stuffed a large chunk of bread in his mouth. “There’s nothing but a puddle of some type of slop in the cell. It reminds me of vomit.”“Gross!” Kendra said as she shoved her

Everyone held their breath while they waited to see if the cure that Olga released in the human zombie’s cell was going to work. No one was more eager to see success than Kendra.She already knew about the puddle of goop that reminded Felix of vomit before he’d told them because she’d slipped out to the confines around sunrise to check on the human zombies. She’d communicated with the intelligent one and told it that they were attempting to cure it. Her heart practically broke in half when its eyes watered as if it was about to cry.She spent about twenty minutes conversing telepathically with it. She learned that he could remember very little of his life as a human. He did, however, recall the final moments. He was a father and a husband. His wife was the first to contract the disease while he was away for a few days hunting. When he returned, he found her eating the last of their three children.

By the end of a fortnight, the compound had another twenty recovered zombies joining their cause. Kendra and Rex were kept busy hunting to keep food on the table. Eddie proved to be an adept hunter. He also was wise to the areas that the zombies favored. They took advantage of both of these things whenever possible.It took a while for the recovered zombies to regain their full mobility and strength. The gymnasium was put to good use for this. On more than one occasion Olga thanked and praised Rex for guiding them to this fabulous place that they called home. It was as if he knew that they would be building an army and would be in need of the facilities the property offered.Once a recovered zombie was functioning normally, he or she was put to work. A zombie rescue team was formed under Kendra’s guidance and select males and females were recruited from amongst the healed to assist in capturing more zombies for healing. &

Kendra had a difficult time keeping her mind focused on hunting during the day to the point that her husband softly asked what was wrong when they were out of earshot of the other hunters. She’d gone to bed the night before to find him in an exceptionally amorous mood and hadn’t wanted to ruin a night of passion with such a topic. So, she’d kept it to herself and done her best to get some sleep.When morning came, he was up and joining the rest of the hunting crew before she had one eye opened. There was just no appropriate time to speak to him about it. Until then.After looking around to make sure that they were alone, she’d quickly shared the information with her husband and then begged that he not let it affect him to the point that the others would notice. It was at that precise moment that he realized the position they’d put themselves in by curing the zombies and inviting them into their home. If

Rather than administer a dose of the elimination cure that would equal the normal amount placed in an inoculation, Olga opted to systematically treat her niece with a minuscule drop under the tongue, while monitoring her in between each dose. Although it didn’t kill her as Olga had secretly feared, the tiny doses of the elimination cure made Kendra violently ill with flu-like symptoms.In order to keep worried and curious eyes and ears away, Olga capitalized on those symptoms and lied to the other healthcare workers by insisting that her niece had, somehow, contracted some type of virus and should be quarantined. This also gave her the excuse to constantly monitor Kendra while she was undergoing a process that was unfamiliar with unknown results.At one point, the older woman wanted to stop the treatment for fear that it was doing more harm than good, but Kendra wouldn’t hear of it.“I can feel my body changing inside,” she in

Olga sat in the corner of the room in a deep trance state while Rex carefully lowered his wife into the ice bath that the lovebirds had prepared. Even with the stress and concern over Kendra’s condition, he was able to find a bit of joy in the news that Felix and Oriana were to be married. He wanted nothing more than for his family to be happy and whole.By marrying Oriana, Felix was burying the intense sadness and guilt that had ridden on his shoulders since Ari’s death. He didn’t believe that Felix was responsible for the poor young woman’s death and he hated to see the man punish himself with such grief. His marriage would change all of that. In turn, it would change the dynamics of the family in a good way. Since Oriana and Kendra didn’t have the negative history that Kendra and Ari had, the family was already in a better place with this match.Although concerned and a bit impatient for her to
