Semua Bab Doomsday: Betrayed by My Wife for Her First Love: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Since the apocalypse began, humanity had all but vanished. Seizing another person's special abilities had become disturbingly common.For an ability wielder, each special ability was as vital as one's heart itself. Even minor damage to it could bring devastating consequences, let alone forcibly ripping it out of the wielder.I was the person with the most special abilities on the entire planet. I carried the fate of mankind on my shoulders in the fight against the zombie hordes. I spent every waking second on guard against betrayal and watching for knives in the dark.Yet it never once crossed my mind that the fatal blow would come from Savannah, my own wife.When she handed me that glass of water, I drank without a shred of suspicion. The next instant, tearing agony exploded through every nerve in my body.Even then, I didn't suspect her. I thought some enemy had poisoned me. I begged her to call for help.It was only when she showed no surprise at my reaction and calmly took ou

I watched as Edmund and Savannah exchanged coy glances and suggestive looks in that cramped room. A storm of grief and fury roared inside me.I tried with everything I had to tear myself away from this suffocating scene, but some invisible tether yanked me back, chaining my soul to Savannah's side.Just then, a phone rang. Savannah's face twisted with annoyance. She answered and snapped, "I'm at Ed's place now. Make it quick!"There was a long silence on the other end. She was about to hang up impatiently when a voice, low and shaking with barely-contained rage, finally came through. "Savannah, Chase is dead. How can you still be in the mood to be with another man?"It was Sean Tate, my teammate.Savannah rolled her eyes. "Tell Chase to quit the theatrics. Does he really think I'll fall for this? All I did was give one of his special abilities to Ed. Is he petty enough to make up lies like this to fool me?"Sean's voice abruptly grew louder as he asked incredulously, "What? You'r

Edmund's face went from crimson with humiliation to dark with anger. He grabbed Savannah's wrist and stormed out of the assembly hall. Even after they'd left, the jeers and laughter still chased them down the street.Once they reached a deserted corner, Edmund flung Savannah's hand away. His expression twisted into something feral as he roared, "Why was the ability so weak? Do you have any idea how humiliating that was? Did you lie to me? This isn't Chase's power at all, is it? Where the hell did you get this from?"Savannah had no idea what had gone wrong. She rubbed her aching wrist, looking wronged and confused. "Ed, I swear I didn't lie to you—I took the ability straight from Chase's body. I… I don't know why it turned out like this…"Edmund breathed hard and forced himself to calm down. He knew how Savannah felt about him. She wouldn't deceive him.He grabbed her by the shoulders and pleaded, "Can you get me another one of Chase's abilities? You saw how weak the lightning-base

Savannah wandered out of the camp, looking like her soul had been ripped out of her body. Only when she reached the front door of what used to be our home did she snap to her senses. All her belongings had been tossed out of the house, and workers were inside.She rushed forward in panic to stop them. "What are you doing? This is my home! I'll report you for breaking and entering!"One of the workers gave her a tired look and handed over an official notice. "Chase Gray is dead, and you're an ordinary civilian. You no longer have enough points to maintain this residence, so we're repossessing the place per regulations. Civilians live in the East District. Rent is cheaper there."The East District was basically the slums. Dozens of people crammed into a single dorm, and the environment there was horrible. But in an apocalypse, having a roof over one's head was already more than many dared dream of.Savannah froze. It had never once crossed her mind that something like this could happ

Savannah gripped the dagger hidden in her arms and drove it hard into Edmund's stomach. Blood gushed out in an instant, soaking through his clothes and dripping steadily from the hilt onto the floor.Terror twisted his face as he begged for mercy, "Sav, I know I was wrong! Please, spare me! I'll give everything back to you!"Savannah didn't waver. She yanked the blade out and plunged it in again, over and over. She kept at it until blood spilled from Edmund's mouth, leaving him unable to speak. Then, with a thud, his body hit the floor.I watched the scene as emotions I couldn't name swirled within me. I hated Savannah, but I'd never imagined she would atone for what she'd done to me in this way.She crouched beside Edmund and forced a vial of liquid down his throat. "You don't deserve to keep what belongs to Chase."She extracted the special ability she'd stolen from my body and hurried to where my corpse lay. She carefully tried to return the ability to me.But I was already de
