48 hours later
After taking care of my shift patrolling around I decided to make my way back to our medical/science division. Every group had their own building their own staff and their own ways on how they did things, from growing food to making clothes even creating alcohol among other things. As I approach the building the guards didn't even need to ask me for my ID knowing that I had a pretty high level clearance to enter. It didn't take long for me to make my way down to the first level only to hear our lead female scientist speaking into a recorder.
"Patient is recovering nicely, though extremely exhausted she still showing signs of trying to wake up. My personal opinion, she probably won't open her eyes until another day or so." She said writing down a few notes. Her name was Vicky, she was 5 foot 5. Her hair color was black and had medium layers, most of the time half her face was covered only showing one eye. She was very friendly, but on purpose she would wear a lab coat one size smaller knowing she was little thicker than the average woman showing off her curves. Usually you'd be able to tell when she was close by just by hearing her bubbles pop when she was chewing gum. As I entered the room I softly cleared my throat quickly getting her attention.
"Brandon! So you're still alive, I'm glad. I heard you went off with a few people looking for more survivors. You know you could have taken the rest of the week off, especially bringing us her." She said pointing to Sarah unconscious on the bed. I couldn't help but smile a bit rubbing the back of my neck softly,
"just trying to keep myself busy" I replied as she got closer handing me the clipboard.
"If you're so keen on doing work then why didn't you accept my offer on being my assistant down here at the lab?" She said putting one of her hands on her hips waiting for an answer and she raised an eyebrow. I smiled right away reading the notes that she wrote down for Sarah not taking my eyes off the clipboard.
"Because something tells me if I was your assistant down here we'd hardly get any work done". I replied laughing softly.
She slowly rolled her eyes as she continued chewing her gum, "that's not true, we would be helping each other... among other things." She replied getting a little closer. Before I knew it she was softly pressing herself against me, I can feel her breasts being squeezed against my chest as she looked up at me. I was 6 ft so I was taller, she was one of the smartest people we ever rescued if not the smartest in our science division possibly medical. I could hear her purposely blowing up a few bubbles with her gum and popping them right under the clipboard as I was trying to read.
"You know how annoying that is, can't you put that away until I leave?" I asked mowing the clipboard so I could see her. She slowly stuck out her tongue with the gum on it, "if you want it so bad then why don't you take it for me, I wouldn't recommend using your hands though" she said with a smirk. I slowly shook my head before softly pushing her tongue back into her mouth with the tip of my finger.
"Maybe when you're older, besides there's plenty of nice guys around here" I replied. She just turned 21 a few weeks ago, I was 29 but in about a month I was about to turn 30. She quickly shook her head, "most of them are not even out of training yet, besides I don't want them" she replied looking at me. About 2 years ago when I was out looking for survivors, I could hear her struggling to keep the door closed in the restroom inside one of the houses. I rushed inside only to see four zombies trying to break it down, they were fresh so most likely it was a group or what used to be them. As I turned their attention towards me she slowly opened the door to see me taking them down one by one. I saved her life that day and took her back to our small City inside our community. Ever since that day she was pretty much stuck on me, always requesting me to help her or anything that involved her being around me.
"I'm almost 30, that's almost 10 years ahead. I'm pretty sure you can find someone a lot younger" I replied. She quickly pulled away crossing her arms not looking at me anymore, "the other guys get scared at the sound of something in the dark let alone a zombie, besides you're not that much older." She replied only for both of us to pause as we heard the sound of something moving next to us.
We could see Sarah tossing and turning for a bit groaning in her sleep only for her to turn on her side. The blanket lifted enough to expose her ass revealing a handprint on it. "You should have seen her when I found her, she was leaking all over the place. Picture it like one of those girls at the end of an adult film after everyone is done with her." I said to Vicky putting the clipboard down.
"A woman's dream, besides at least one of us is getting action around here" she replied walking away already sounding irritated. I slowly shook my head pulling the blanket up covering Sarah as I made my way towards Vicky.
"How's our subject doing" I asked watching her do paperwork before finally looking over at me. "Oh so now it's our subject?" She replied. She started to lead me down the hall before finally reaching one of the containment rooms. As I looked inside I can see a woman with a collar around her neck, the moment I tapped on the glass right away she got aggressive trying to reach for the door but couldn't. Her eyes were red, the moment she saw Vicky she wanted to attack her but when I stepped into view she started to calm down yet still looking a little aggressive.
"She passed away last night, she know she had a heart condition so she gave us consent to use her for study. She was really nice, however when another female comes into view she gets really aggressive. But when a male comes into view she starts to calm down" Vicky said as she started to write more notes down. I put my hand on scanner and use it to open the door causing Vicky to take a few steps back.
"I wouldn't recommend that, what if she breaks loose?" She asked worried as she got behind me. I'll admit my curiosity was getting the better of me but the moment I stepped into the room she started to become less aggressive. I started to walk towards her only for Vicky to stay at the door too scared to come in. The female zombie in front of me was fresh, she didn't show any signs of decay, she was attractive but the looking her eyes said it all that she wasn't there. I got closer but not enough for her to touch me, right away I could see her slowly looking at me sniffing me before lowering her head looking down at my crotch. She wasn't growling anymore, I could see her trying to reach for my parents but couldn't. I was a little confused but the moment I started to take a few steps back, she was slowly starting to become more aggressive. As I close the door right away she started pulling her chain growling returning back to her feral side causing Vicky to take a few steps back away from the door.
"That was intense, but seeing how she was reacting that data was useful." She said as we started making our way back to the lab.
"Why was she only acting aggressive towards you and not me?" I asked trying to get some answers. She started pulling out her notes and a few blood samples before coming up with a theory. "When you brought me Sarah I noticed a few things, there weren't any bite marks. The only marks on her body were the ones on her ass and hips and her breasts. It took me a few hours to clean her up as well. Those Zombies that had her could have killed her at any moment, but instead they were fucking her" she replied showing me some of the notes.
"I don't understand where you're going with this what do you mean?" I replied.
She quickly started shuffling through her notes, "zombies that have been decaying for a while become aggressive and only want to feed using blood. But fresh zombies don't do that, if the opposite sex comes in and they're alive and well they could sense that. Remember their bodies are cold, but ours aren't" she replied trying to explain her theory. I looked over at Sarah to see her laying on her side still asleep.
"Are you saying that they're trying to use the living to stay warm?" I asked.
