Chapter 286: Couldn’t See A Downside

The light blue zombie in front of me cocked his head to the side and just stared at me for a few seconds. Almost as if he was trying to process my words, I could see his eyes and mouth moving. After a bit longer, he looked at me and nodded his head.

Letting out a loud roar, he paused and waited to see what the rest of the horde would do. I could only assume that this was some type of command or another. When the other zombies roared back before tilting their heads to the side to expose their necks, I understood that this was a change of command. 

The light blue Beta had announced that he was going to be in control of the horde and the others acknowledged the change in leadership when they exposed their necks. 

However, this did not make a part of me happy. With a snarl on my face, I side-stepped the boys and walked towards the Beta now turned Alpha. 

I would like to say that I got into his face, but the reality was nothing like that. Mostly because I only went up to his chest level. I took a step back so I didn't have to expose my throat to him, I growled low before tilting my head back just enough to let out an impressive roar.

And when I say impressive, I mean, I have never roared like this in any of my lives. In fact, I think the ground even shook with my proclamation. As soon as I was done, I went back to staring at the Beta. I would not let the horde think that they answered to him and not me. 

That was a recipe for disaster and I was not going to have a ticking timebomb following me across the country.

The Beta stared at me for a few seconds before he dropped to his knees and exposed his throat. Within seconds, the rest of the horde followed suit. Letting out a low grumble of displeasure, I turned my back on the zombie, wanting to know what he was going to do next.

When nothing rushed me from behind, I knew that he understood his position. The Alpha might be dead, but that didn't automatically make him an Alpha. In fact, there was no way for a Beta to truly become an Alpha, no matter how much they wanted to. It was a ranking that you were either born into or you weren't. There was no changing simply because you weren't happy with your place in the horde.

There was another roar and then nothing but silence. 

Looking off into the darkness, I saw that all the zombies had disappeared. Hopefully, it would work out okay and I wasn't going to go along the same lines as the leaders of the safe zones that thought that they might be able to tame the zombies only to have them turn on them. 

Then again, unlike those leaders, I had the ability to kill the zombies with a single thought so that was a point in my favor.

"Ready to go?" I asked as I looked over my shoulder to the boys. "Or should we find a place to set up camp?"

"Honestly? I am good to keep going for a while," said Liu Wei coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around me. Giving me a kiss on the top of my head, he then rested his chin on it. He was damn lucky he was hot and gave me good sex because being treated like a chin rest made me cranky.

"There is a gas station about 3 miles out," added Wang Chao as he walked around in front of me until I was squished between him and Liu Wei.

I quickly did the math and realized that that was just under 5k away.  Well, that was if I did my math right. Honestly, it was a 50/50 chance.I think you should take a look at

"Sure," I said as I tilted my head back into Liu Wei's chest to be able to look up at Wang Chao.

The man swooped in and took my lips into a hard, possessive, kiss. "Wanted to do that for a while," said Wang Chao once he pulled back. My body wanted to follow his and I swayed towards him, only to be pulled back into Liu Wei's arms. 

"Feel free to do that any time," I said with a dreamy smile. 

"Alright you three," interjected Liu Yu Zeng from where he sat on Lin. "Let's get going. It will take us less than 10 minutes to get to the gas station, depending on the road ahead. Apparently, we need to account for any zombie hordes or strange cults when planning our routes. Do you think those would show up on any map apps?" he continued with a smirk.

I could only laugh at the idea. Not because it was a bad one, but because if we still had working technology, that would be a fantastic idea. "Turn right to avoid the zombie horde up ahead," I said out loud, trying to sound like a mechanical voice reading the directions.

"Road closed due to cult activity," added Liu Yu Zeng, joining in on the fun. 

"Biker trap ahead, use alternative route," continued Chen Zi Han and we all started to laugh.

"Alright, alright," said Liu Wei, adjusting his glasses with his right hand while still holding me against him with his left. "Let's get going then."

"Party pooper," I grumbled and stuck out my tongue as I looked up at him.

"Careful, Sweetheart," he purred into my ear causing my face to become bright red. "I can think of a lot of things to do with that tongue other than sticking it out at me."

The look in his eyes drew me to him as I got lost in the thoughts of last night. 

Honestly, I didn't see a downside.

Ducking under his arm so that I was out of his embrace, I turned around and stuck my tongue out at him again before I sprinted over to Cerberus, his door left open so that I could easily dive into the driver's seat and close it behind me.

Once I was safe, I turned to look at Liu Wei who hadn't moved from his original location. His eyebrow raised, he smile at me.
