A Love Story Entwined with Misunderstandings in a World of Chaos and Survival! What starts as an exciting trip to Paris quickly turns into a nightmare when Heesoo’s plane crash-lands, leaving her stranded in a zombie-infested parallel world. In this brutal realm, where outsiders like her are treated as slaves and violence reigns supreme, survival seems impossible—especially in a place where she can neither understand nor speak the language. Captured by ruthless men intent on enslaving her, Heesoo faces the horrifying prospect of being left to die at the hands of zombies. Just when all hope seems lost, a man with piercing emerald-green eyes miraculously saves her—a beacon of strength amidst the chaos. “Get lost, unless you’re looking for trouble.” Her savior, Calix Clovis, a holy knight and relentless zombie hunter, is the epitome of strength in this cruel world. With no other options, Heesoo clings to him as her only lifeline. Yet, as their journey unfolds, the language barrier between them breeds endless misunderstandings, while an unspoken tension of desire simmers beneath the surface, threatening to ignite. Heesoo finds herself falling for Calix, drawn to the man who saved her. Calix, too, feels a growing attraction to her, but as a holy knight, he views such desires as sinful temptations and fights to suppress his feelings. ‘What am I supposed to do with this woman?’ Helpless and unable to survive without him, Heesoo becomes his burden—one he knows he should abandon. Logic demands he leave her behind and continue his fight alone. Yet no matter how hard he tries, Calix cannot bring himself to let her go. “When we reach the city, we’ll never see each other again. Got it?” Calix tells himself she’s nothing more than a thorn—insignificant yet irritating. But the longer they travel together, the deeper she embeds herself in his soul, sharp and impossible to remove. Her presence unsettles him, forcing him to question everything he once believed, leaving him to wonder: would removing this thorn cause more pain than keeping it? Will Calix pull the thorn free and walk away? Or will he surrender to the feelings that pierce him deeper with every step they take together? #Romance #Sexual #Misunderstanding #Fantasy #Zombie #Obsessive Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by MaCherie All right reserved.

Kaya ba ganoon ang peg ng buhay ni Rose Sagrado, isang simpleng dalaga na nagkamaling makadaupang-palad si Thorn Contreras—ang living “tinik” ng buhay niya?

Pero parang nagpa-power trip ang tadhana sa kanila dahil isang araw ay bigla na lang tumibok ang puso nila para sa isa’t isa. Kaso, kung kailan naman nagsisimula na silang kilalanin ang isa’t isa at amining nagkakagustuhan na ay saka pa nila nalaman ang masalimuot na nakaraan ng kanilang lolo at lola. Isang nakaraang sisira sa papausbong nilang pag-iibigan. Bigla tuloy naisip ni Rose na sana nga, “life is full of thorns” na lang. Para hindi man maging sila ni Thorn, may iba pa siyang makilalang “tinik” sa buhay niya. Kaso, ang lakas talagang mang-bad trip ng tadhana. Dahil iisang thorn lang pala ang kayang kilalanin ng puso niya… “I don’t know anything about love but I am willing to discover the meaning of love with you. Kung anoman ang maaaring kahinatnan ng gagawin natin ay handa ko iyong tanggapin, makasama lang kita.” All Rights Reserved to Precious Pages Corp.
