You even craved it. But tonight, I’d like to make it official.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice dropped lower, almost intimate. \"You’ll be mine. And in exchange... I’ll help you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen froze. The words sent a chill through her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could hear faint growls echoing outside the hotel corridor, the pounding of heavy footsteps, the world collapsing around her — and yet, Ross’s voice cut through it all like a whisper from the devil himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re insane,\" she muttered, but her voice cracked halfway through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe,\" Ross said, a soft chuckle escaping his lips. \"But I’m also the only man in this city who can save you. And you know it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let the silence stretch, savoring the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen could almost imagine his smirk — that quiet, knowing smile that had once made her blush and now made her stomach twist in dread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make your decision fast, Karen,\" Ross continued, his tone suddenly sharper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because I’m not sure how long I can hold them off. You might not survive if you take too long to think.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her breath hitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hold them off? Did that mean he knew where she was? Was he watching her even now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ross...\" she whispered, panic rising in her throat. \"What do you mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ll understand soon,\" Ross said, almost gently. \"Now — your answer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face. Every instinct screamed not to trust him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ross was dangerous — powerful in ways she couldn’t yet understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But outside the barricaded door, the dead roamed. She could hear them — dragging their feet, growling, slamming against other rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And her family... her family might still be out there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, she spoke, her voice small and broken. \"Okay,\" she said. \"But I have conditions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\" Ross said, amused. \"Let’s hear them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want my parents safe,\" Karen said, her voice trembling. \"My sisters too. You’ll protect them, Ross. All of them. That’s my only condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long pause followed, and then Ross laughed softly. \"Fine, Karen. Still selfless to the end.\" He exhaled, and his voice turned to silk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very well. You have my word.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Karen could reply, the line went dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She lowered her phone slowly, heart pounding in her ears. Eliza stood beside her, pale and trembling. \"What did he say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen didn’t answer. She couldn’t. She didn’t even know what she’d just agreed to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, five minutes later — the world shook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep rumbling noise echoed from outside, followed by the whir of rotor blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliza rushed to the window and pulled the curtain aside just enough to peek. Her jaw dropped. \"Karen... there are helicopters out there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound grew louder, closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the streets below, bright lights cut through the darkness, sweeping across the hotel’s shattered windows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Engines roared. Tires screeched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the pounding on their door — three sharp knocks, followed by a cold, authoritative voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Karen! We’re here under direct orders from Mr. Ross! Stand clear from the door!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before either woman could react, the barricade shook, and with a thunderous crash, the door was blown open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smoke and dust filled the air as a team of heavily armed men in black combat suits poured into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their movements were fast, disciplined — almost inhumanly so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clear! Room secure!\" one barked, sweeping his rifle across the corners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen shielded her face from the flying debris, coughing as she looked up at the soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each one wore night-vision goggles, bulletproof vests, and automatic rifles that gleamed under the emergency lights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them stepped forward, his expression unreadable beneath the visor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Karen?\" he asked, his voice filtered through the helmet’s comm. \"We’ve been sent to extract you and your companion. You’re safe now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliza let out a shaky breath and broke down crying. \"Oh thank God... thank you! Thank you so much!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two soldiers gently lifted her to her feet, while another offered Karen a hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took it numbly, still too stunned to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldiers led them out of the room, their boots echoing down the dimly lit corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bodies littered the floor — both zombies and humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air was heavy with smoke, blood, and gunpowder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they reached the stairwell, Karen glanced over her shoulder at the shattered hotel room — her last piece of normal life, gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t know what waited for her outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But one thing was certain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ross had kept his promise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, she belonged to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They traveled by helicopter, the wind whipping through the open chopper as the city disappeared beneath them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below, the landscape gradually changed—buildings gave way to barren fields, and the familiar signs of civilization vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world became silent, empty, and strangely still, as if this place had been erased from maps long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a tense flight, the helicopter descended onto a secluded clearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terrain was rugged, almost desolate, and at first glance, it seemed abandoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Karen knew better. This was the location Ross had chosen for his secret bunker—their sanctuary, their prison, and the center of his control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The doors of the helicopter opened, and the cold wind rushed in, carrying with it a faint metallic scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen stepped out carefully, her eyes scanning the area, nerves taut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bunker loomed ahead—part underground, part fortified structure built into the landscape, almost blending into the barren earth around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour later, Karen’s heart leapt when she saw her family arrive at the bunker as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom! Dad! Chelsea! Lea!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen’s voice cracked as she stumbled forward, tears welling in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She saw her family—alive, safe, and waiting for her inside the underground bunker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, the fear and exhaustion that had been gnawing at her finally broke, and she ran straight into their arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They embraced tightly, crying, trembling, unable to speak for several long seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>","2026-06-09T06:19:05.005Z",1,"novelbin.me","29ae4c81495d92da94de3602e6ac28fbc2d33e7f966a740a0d7b423443fefb45","evil-mc-s-ntr-harem-chapter-1013","evil-mc-s-ntr-harem-chapter-1011",1212,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fevil-mc-s-ntr-harem-cover.jpg"]
