"Agh!" The woman fell to the floor, a red handprint blooming across her cheek. Tears streamed down her face, yet her expression remained firm as she shouted, "Rover! Do not open the door!"
"Damn it!" The bespectacled man twisted his face in rage.
The man beside him grew even angrier, swung his fist, and punched the door.
BANG!
Crack!
"ACK!"
A sound like breaking bone echoed. He clutched his hand, his face contorting in agony as miserable groans escaped his lips.
The bespectacled man hurriedly asked, "Are you… are you alright?"
"I think it's broken!" the man hissed through clenched teeth.
The bespectacled man turned back, his expression growing even more hateful toward the woman he had just slapped.
He raised his foot and stomped on her head.
BAM!
"Damn bitch! You filthy rotten whore!"
"Stop fighting!" someone suddenly shouted. "Zombies are coming, run!"
The bespectacled man looked toward the staircase leading from the 6th floor to the 7th and saw several zombies heading their way.
He glanced at the woman, then grabbed the injured man's arm and fled.
"What about her?!" someone in the group yelled.
"Leave that bitch!" the bespectacled man barked.
The group immediately ran toward the stairs leading to the 8th floor.
Only the woman remained in the hallway, sitting on the ground. Her eyes turned toward the door, and she gave a weak smile. "Rover, you're inside… right?"
Rover sighed lightly and answered, "It's me."
"Thank goodness…"
Her expression softened with a brief flicker of joy. "Remember this, don't open the door for them. They'll kill you."
"Why aren't you running?" Rover asked, confused.
She glanced at the zombies slowly approaching, then shook her head. "No need! Rover, as long as you…"
Crack!
At that moment, the door suddenly swung open. Rover reached out, grabbed her hand, and with all his strength, pulled her into the room.
Crack!
The door closed instantly. Zombies slammed into it right away.
BANG! BANG!
Inside the room, the woman sat on the floor gasping for breath. Seeing Rover's handsome face so close, she couldn't hold back anymore. She threw her arms around him and wept hysterically.
Her tears soaked into Rover's shoulder as the constant pounding of zombies filled the air, creating a chaotic and suffocating atmosphere.
This woman was Nanoe, not only an accountant at the company where he worked, but also one of his neighbors in the same apartment building.
The man earlier was her husband, who also worked at the same company. Yet… what had happened just now left Rover totally confused.
Nanoe's husband did not run away with her. Instead, he had grabbed another man's hand affectionately and fled together, leaving Nanoe behind.
What the hell was going on?
Had the world gone insane, or was he the only sane person left?
He didn't know. All he could do was wait until Nanoe finished crying before asking.
Rover held Nanoe tightly and gently patted her back. The scent of perfume mixed with sweat made his head spin. Her soft body and full chest pressed tightly against him sent his heart racing uncontrollably.
After all, he had never had a girlfriend. This was the first time in his life he had been this physically close to a woman.
A while later, the zombies left, and Nanoe's crying quieted down. She slowly pulled away from Rover's embrace, lowered her head slightly, and whispered, "Thank you, Rover."
Rover reached out and wiped the tears from her cheeks.
Nanoe didn't dodge. She let him touch her soft face and wipe away the lingering tears.
Rover took a deep breath. As though making up his mind about something, he spoke with determination: "Sister Nanoe, your husband abandoned you, and you saw how dangerous it is outside. You…"
"Pfff! Hahaha…" Nanoe suddenly covered her mouth with one hand and burst into laughter, her eyes curling into crescent moons.
Rover: "…"
He had thought that saying something like that would make Nanoe furious, that she would see him as a scumbag taking advantage of her vulnerability to claim her body.
But instead, she smiled happily, leaving him completely puzzled.
"Rover, we are both adults. I know exactly what I should do." Nanoe smiled. "I accept becoming your Tenant."
Rover frowned. "Sister Nanoe, you should think carefully. If you do not agree, then in about an hour, I will let you leave."
Yes, Survivors had already discovered that if they entered another person's room without becoming a Tenant, they could only stay for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
If they exceeded that time limit, they would suffocate and die.
But if they accepted becoming a Tenant, then it was different. They could stay in the room forever, but they could not attack the Room Owner and must obey every order the Owner gave.
Nanoe smiled. "I already read the information about Tenants, and I accept it. I will be absolutely loyal to you. But Rover… I have one condition."
Rover remained silent, waiting for her to continue.
"Can you give me a child?"
"What?!" Rover couldn't believe his ears. His expression was filled with shock. "Sister Nanoe, do you know what you are saying?"
Nanoe nodded firmly. "I know. Don't worry. After I get pregnant, I won't stay to bother you. I will leave immediately."
Rover frowned, but he remembered Nanoe's behavior from the past. Somehow this seemed… normal for her.
"Sister Nanoe, did you… already have feelings for me before all of this?"
He wasn't asking out of nowhere.
Back then, he lived on the 7th floor while Nanoe and her family lived on the 3rd. But every weekend, she would bring him food she cooked. Sometimes, she even packed him entire lunchboxes in beautiful containers.
He had refused many times, afraid her husband would misunderstand. But there were occasions when her own husband delivered the lunchboxes to him, leaving Rover stunned.
Eventually, he assumed they were just kind, generous people and didn't think too much about it.
Looking back now, he realized something was off. It felt as though Nanoe had been aiming at him… or rather, flirting with him.
Nanoe nodded cheerfully. "Yes. But back then, I only did it to spite my husband. Later on… I actually started to like you."
"Spite your husband?" Rover felt a headache coming on. He couldn't understand anything she was saying.
Nanoe covered her mouth and laughed. "Very confusing, right? Hahaha… then just agree with me."
As she spoke, she unbuttoned her shirt, revealing her large, pale breasts, faint blue veins showing beneath her skin, glistening with drops of sweat, like some chilled, ripe fruit that begged to be bitten.
"You can use me however you want, as long as you make me pregnant. After that, I will leave immediately and never bother you again."
Rover stared at her, not only trying to decipher her intentions but also examining her information panel.
[Name: Nanoe]
[Role: Free Survivor]
[Charm: 85]
[Affection: 80 percent]
[Yield: 82.5 Omni Points. Note: Omni Points are provided after intercourse. This effect applies only once per day.]
Seeing the panel, Rover's eyes gleamed with greed.
'Looks like… I've found another way to earn Omni Points.' he thought to himself.
He then decided to make Nanoe his Tenant.
Nanoe saw the notification appear and immediately accepted without hesitation.
Right after, Rover felt a faint, invisible bond form between them. In this connection, he was the master, and she was the subordinate.
She had to obey all of his commands and could not harm him or act against him in any way.
Rover glanced at her again. He had to admit she was truly beautiful.
Around 167 cm tall. Despite being nearly 36 years old, her face, figure, and skin were meticulously maintained, no different from a 25-year-old woman.
Her long brown hair was tied neatly behind her head, her alluring S-shaped figure wrapped in a professional office outfit. Her full, slightly plump thighs were encased in black stockings.
Nanoe possessed a sweet, gentle beauty, the kind that resembled a caring mother or an affectionate older sister.
At the company, if she had not been married, she would have had over a hundred men pursuing her.
Nanoe also sensed the bond and Rover's heated gaze. She began unbuttoning more of her shirt, but suddenly, his hand caught hers.
"Wait!"
