Jonah turned to him. In the dimmest light from the edges of the window, his face still had that strange healthy look, but the color in his cheeks seemed waxy and false, like someone had painted the health on his face. His eyes were hectic and bright.
"Promise me you wont try to hunt Mark down."
Thad was very quiet. "It was Mark? Your leader's younger brother? Why the fuck are you trying to protect him."
Jonah flinched from the anger in his lover's voice. "Because. That's the reason I left. I couldn't tell anyone, because if they f-found out about him, then something would happen. I'm n-not sure what, b-but someone will get hurt. Promise me Thad."
Thad went stiff. His anger was building up inside him. Couldn't Jonah see? Why couldn't he see why this animal needed to die?
"Ow! Thad stop it!" The panicky note in Jonah's slurred voice snapped Thad out of his rage, and he realized that he was holding Jonah too tight, his forearm was digging into Jonah's frail chest, cutting off his air.
Jonah went limp and cried helplessly. "P-Promise me!" He whispered. "Promise, or I wont go! You c-can carry me, b-but I'll scream, and m-m-make the c-crazies hear us."
Thad rubbed the bridge of his nose. His rage was gone, gone at the shock of hurting Jonah. Now he just felt helpless and scared. "I promise Jonah. I swear, I wont hurt Mark. But if he tries to d-do anything to you--I'll... I'll kill him."
Thad was choking, trying to keep the angry sob from his throat. Jonah went limp in his arms, huddling into his body. He fell asleep with the tears drying on his face.
Tomorrow was going to be a big day.

Anonymousalmost 11 years agoHonestly I love the level of violence your characters go through. I find it to be a huge turn on! Rock on soul sister...or brother. Whichever.
SanguineAffairover 11 years agoI haven't read much of your work at all- in fact I only started reading this story because I liked the demon one you just put out. I like your writing style quite a bit, but the rape was unexpected. That's a trigger for -a lot- of people, you should consider putting a warning at the beginning of your story when it involves something like that, so people know. I didn't really like that, but I got past it because it fits the story, and you didn't dwell on it and go into graphic detail- and thank you for that. I'm enjoying the story so far, and I am a little anxious about what's to come, but hopefully it won't be too bad for poor Jonah.
Anonymousover 11 years agoWould it be possible for you to write a story where the hero DOESN'T get raped? You write so well, but the level of violence spoils it. Sorry, but there's something sick about the level of pain you put you characters through. I keep hoping you'll keep the writing style but lose the sadism - it isn't happening.
Anonymousover 12 years agoThank you for not portraying Thad as a stereotype, like most media love to protray black men. The simple minded garbage of the world would have painted him more like Mark, with his pants hanging off his butt, gold tooth/chains, hat backward, and talking ghetto bullshit. Thanks for having guts to show the truth, and being a good writer.
mashedpotatoehead45over 12 years agoI had expected for Jess to save Jonah but I like Thad's character even more. Please don't make him crazy or something :-) Keep it up I love your story!!!
frosty_hore8over 12 years agowas sooo hoping that jess and jonah would pair up. is thad hiding a secret?
can see jess and thad pairing up to dole out retribution/justice. can’t rely on david, i bet he knows all about marks abusive tendencies. am thinking deep down, mark is also in denial of being gay/bi.
on mark’s demise ....... will leave it up to you hoping, in this instance, that the ‘cruel’ in your name is part of your writing nature!
good luck and more please ;0)
Happycat101over 12 years agoI has been stalking , and following your stories for awhile and love'em all. Can't wait to read more :)
wingedchaosover 12 years agoCongrads on writng such an entangled story. Great premise (even though not totally original). It's how you handle the premise that makes it interesting...that and the ability to enthral your readers. The main goal of any author and you have succeeded!
feelinromanticover 12 years agowell chapter two completely lived up to expectations. I hope chapter 3 wont be too far behind!!
julriover 12 years agoplagiarism my ass! i have read, i've seen every zombie book, movie, video game you name it. every end of the world sci-fi what ever.(Crazy was the WORST). I am so into it the Zombie craze i have had my own mother tied to a chair for 15 years now and occasionally toss her a beef bone. Well she got bit.LOL. She dont get out much anymore. she does sorta moan and whine when i make her watch american idol, i guess its all the young meat she sees. She does appreciate the young hair stylist i do bring in every 2 months. well i digress, either way, this ORIGINAL story is a real good story all it's own. I am so glad the writer put her own two cents into the fray. common, enjoy the flick, get some red colored pop corn and STFU! Cruel i'll leave the stage for you ma'am! just please don't have us waiting for ever, mom gets hungry!
canndover 12 years agolol julri, do you write your own stories? that was a very imaginative and deserving plan for Mark's demise!
C2BK-Zombies aren't my thing but I've come to expect good work from you so I had to read it anyway. I like it alot. As usual there is the tough stuff with Mark raping Jonah, but I can only hope that Jonah gets better and the bad led him to Thad. I love how Thad is a good guy, but there is this slightly dark side to him. I Like how you describe it as an animal inside him. Reminds me a bit of my fav, weres, and it works well.
I look forward to the others finding out about Mark and I hope he hasn't decided to hurt another person in the camp. The young boys could be a target and it would be real sad if their homophobic father missed the signs b/c Mark appears to be straight!
Ok, keep writing and there better be some antibiotics left. And hope Mark meets a great end.
As for the idiot who said you are plagarising, that was a great answer.

nomoretears00over 12 years ago500 pages *gasp* you wanna shoot Julri or want me to? LOL!
*winks at Julri*
Love the story. Jonah just rips my heart to pieces. Like the new character Thad. Really interested in seeing where you go with this. Wouldn't surprise me to see Mark not pay for what he did. But damn, there are certainly some wicked suggestions as to what *could* happen to him!!! Very creative!
And good luck with those tests ;)

npicciniover 12 years agoI couldn’t remember what this story was about at first so had to go back and check out Chapter 1 to refresh my memory. .. and then I had to reread the entire chapter again because I forgot how freaking awesome it was! O.M.G. is this story good. Some of the feedback left for Ch 1 and 2 made comments about similarities to other zombie movies (and shows) but aren’t they all pretty similar anyway? I mean, there’s only so much you can do with the zombie premise but I like how you have totally made it your own.
I know you are incredibly busy with school and life in general but please, please don’t make us wait too long for Chapter 3! Soooo looking forward to it!
chesthairslaveover 12 years agoLoving the start of a beautiful, loving relationship. Your first chapter was good, but this is so much better. Worth the wait. Now to Mark: 1. shooting in the leg only to be ravaged by Crazies- too predictable. 2. castration- not painful enough. SO, I suggest an autopsy of his penis, scrotum & testicles while he is still alive!
