THE ABANDONED VILLAINESS BECAME A ZOMBIE

Romantic yet intense scene from 'The Abandoned Villainess Became a Zombie' manga cover.

When I opened my eyes, I was no longer myself. I had become the villainess of a zombie apocalypse, with a zombie’s teeth buried in me. 


And yet… I didn’t die.


When I returned unscathed, everyone looked at me as if I’d risen from the grave. Just one bite, I thought. These were the people who had abandoned me. Surely, one bite wouldn’t hurt… right?


But no. I wouldn’t give in. I would endure. I would survive. I would live.

If I could hold out until a cure was found, maybe I could be human again. So I stayed by their side, hiding my secret—that I was no longer one of them. 


I was a zombie. Except… something’s gone terribly wrong.


“Don’t tell me to leave you again. I won’t.”Wait, what is happening here?! Why are they all acting like this?! I’m supposed to be the villainess (and a zombie), not the one they’re falling for! When did this turn into that kind of story?!


A darkly comedic, pulse—racing fantasy about a zombie villainess who survives the apocalypse, only to discover that the real danger isn’t the zombies outside… it’s everything 

(and everyone) else inside.
