Strain of Resistance

I was 12 years old when the world ended. For eight years I've survived in this craphole once known as earth.

Now things are changing, and not for the better. The parasite is evolving. Becoming smarter, stronger and deadlier. They've already stolen everything from me. My home. My family. Even the man I loved. It's time for this bullshit to end once and for all. My name is Bixby and I'm the resistance. Mature themes. 17+ Rating

2017

It's been eight years since the invasion. Eight years of fighting alien and human predators alike. Each day a struggle to survive. Bixby, and her crew of survivors at the Grand Hotel, thought they had lived through the worst of it. They were wrong. The invaders have evolved. They've become smarter. Stronger. Deadlier. There may be a way to eradicate this new threat. But that entails a perilous expedition over three hundred miles of infested territory. Three hundred miles of leeches, ravagers, and hybrids, all on the hunt for blood. What could possibly go wrong?

Strain of Vengeance

2018

We had one assignment—eradicate the new threat posed by the alien parasites. And we thought we had won. What should’ve been a joyous return home after a grueling mission has now turned into a race against time to save those we love. The Grand, our safe haven, has been invaded. Our people either dead or kidnapped. Left heartbroken, our nightmare never seems to end. But I’m Bixby, and I refuse to let the invaders win. None of us are willing to give up until we have everyone we've lost back safe. But can our people trust us to come to their rescue when we can't even trust each other? Luke and Sam. Sam and Luke. So many lies. So many cover ups. So much pain. One of them will be my salvation. The other my downfall.
