back at the hotel

Meanwhile back on the floor that the other survivors had been left on, inside a room was an eighteen year old male who had been locked away.

He had a gloomy look in his eyes as he gazed down from the balcony of his room.

He observed quietly as the zombies grew in number where they had been lured to by the efforts of Brick and Tanya. 'Are they seriously trying to get us all killed?'

He was less adaptable than others to be able to survive but he had been able to see the dangers that came from the zombies who had gathered below.

He recognised the large numbers of zombies as being much too large in numbers to be able to handle and all it took was for them to make their way into the hotel or to remain nearby to restrict or endanger those that were inside.

The young master of the Barnes family knit his brows as a vengeful look appeared in his eyes. 'This will make it even more difficult for my father to send people in to save me.'

He wanted to be where he would be protected and safe.

He had already been humiliated enough and he had not let go of his hatred towards Brick or his desires towards Tanya.

He made a silent vow to himself that if he was able to escape then he would get his revenge.

The room that he was in had a view towards the back of the hotel so he did not see how the front had looked much clearer than before.

He had missed a lot that had happened during his time being confined so he was lacking in a lot of information.

He was not aware of a group already leaving and more being escorted across the front road to where they would be safe.

Just as he was building up his resentment within him, there was a noise behind him as the door opened. "Young master."

He turned around looking pleased. "It seems that some among you are still loyal."

A short girl with slightly revealing clothing approached him before jumping into his arms. "I could not get to you until now young master. They kept a close watch over you but now they are gone. There is now nobody that would dare go against you."

She began to explain with a proud voice as she wrapped her body around his like she was trying her best to seduce him and keep his favour.

A cold light appeared in her eyes as she thought of something. 'If only he would stop thinking about that bitch then it would be so much easier to earn his favour.'

She had a

Ready given her body to him and had big dreams of making him hers as all his connections and families power would become something to aid her.

She was just another girl with a background of a middle class family that had some wealth and businesses in their hands.

Her father had been pushing for her to find a suitable candidate to help promote their families situation further but with the world changing all of a sudden and becoming more dangerous, she had felt the weight increase on her to find someone to rely on not just for her family but for herself too.

She had been taught to please and control the person who she chose so she would not let him have thoughts about others when she was with him.

The young master of the Barnes family was an excellent candidate to the point that she was willing to hide her dissatisfactions about him and would even accept his many flaws if it meant that she could earn a place by his side or to put him under her control.

She began seducing him while they were alone as she told him many things related to what had happened while he was locked away including some added parts that made Tanya be seen in a more unfavourable view.

She did not openly say such things and was put on a pitiful display as she suggested certain things to the young master of the Barnes family.

She knew that a cold girl like Tanya would be easily misunderstood and would be too prideful to look into such matters to prove her innocence.

While Tanya would be seen in such a way without bothering to argue back about such things in the future, she would be able to make her position by his side more solid.

She went in to add some extra changes to the details she gave him involving those who were still within the hotel which further increased his dependence on her and his mistrust of the others.

It had included tales about how some of the other girls that she had felt more of a threat from had been on the side of those that were wanting to keep him locked up.

There were others that were pointed out mixing truth and lies to make it more believable as she threw her opponents into those that the young master would be against.

She was helping him to understand who was against him regaining his freedom so he knew who to take revenge on while mixing in those she wanted to have removed too so it was a perfect plan.

As she saw his expression darken with each soft whisper and whimper she let out, a small smirk quickly appeared on her lips before it was replaced again with her pitiful and seducing appearance.

It did not take long before both of them were rolling together on the bed in a passionate embrace and they had later exited the room with her being held close to him.

When he looked towards the people who did nothing to stop him from being confined, most of them could not look towards him and felt a little shame for being unable to go against Brick.

There was a problem with their looks towards him since the words from earlier had echoed in his mind further deepening his mistrust.

Their inability to look him in the eye made him believe even more that those he had been told about were still trying to go against him.

The misunderstandings between them would only deepen despite there being a clear reason why everything had turned out as it did.

Those that remained had bet their survival on staying in place or putting their faith in the young master.

They awaited the time they could free him and get back in his good graces but with Brick and the others having so much influence and power, they could only remain silent and wait for their chance.

There were some that had missed the chance to go with Brick and did not want the young master to be let out since he would likely hold a grudge against them or would cause trouble again but those were very few.

The vast majority of them put their faith in the girl to plead their case as she entered first so that his dissatisfactions could be lessened by towards the group but that had backfired on many who were targeted.

With the young master back in the hallway, the power structure within the hotel would begin to shift back towards his favour as there were some among the survivors that would be willing to devote themselves to him if it meant having a chance to get on his good side.
