    Summary

    Her body reacts before her mind does to the sound that reverberates down the hall, heat igniting across her skin all at once, her pulse in her throat and then falling, falling, falling towards the cradle of her hips. One breath, another, and her mouth closes on a stifled gasp as she questions if she has just really heard Deborah moan.

    in which it takes Deborah sleeping with Winnie for Ava to realize she has feelings.

    Summary

    Deborah looks down at her from her desk chair and Ava feels a swell of something equal parts arousal, humiliation, and a guttural, instinctual trust.
    “Hush, sweetheart, I'm trying to work,” Deborah chides, tucking Ava’s hair behind her ear before returning to her laptop keyboard. The nickname and the dismissal shoots straight between her legs and she has to remind herself to steady her breath and follow Deborah’s rules.
    It should be an easy task, she doesn't even ask for much.
    Be quiet, be still, don't come until Deborah says she can.

    On her knees, Ava waits for a well earned reward.

    Summary

    "Listen, if you can't walk, I can help you out of here."

    The woman let out a dry chuckle. "Oh, really? What are you, some kind of post-apocalyptic Gen Z saint with a savior-complex?"

    "Jesus," Ava muttered. This was not going well.

    "Really, I want to know," the woman continued with a mocking grin. "Are out here every day helping strangers for fun, or is it just my lucky day?"

    "Or," Ava snapped, "I can just walk out and let you bleed to death in this shitty casino with your clicker friends. Whatever floats your boat."

    That earned her a scoff.

    "This is not a shitty casino. It's the Palmetto."

    ~

    Twenty-six years into the apocalypse, and one year after her last interaction with another human being, Ava meets Deborah.

    And maybe it has something to do with the fact that Ava hasn’t spoken to anyone in a year, but there’s something about Deborah that makes her feel like there might still be some fun left in their dead world.
