Chapter 219 Till Death Do Us Part
“Give me the keys.”n’s voice echoed through the bathroom, but there was no reply from inside.
Just as thest shred of sympathy flickered out in Theresa and she was ready to end things swiftly, <b>a </b><b>pale </b>hand slid out from beneath the stall divider, trembling, bone–white,
and seizedn’s wrist.
“Watch out!” Dawn and Jack’s hearts leapt into their throats as a ring of keys dropped to the floor <b>with </b><b>a </b>sharp jingle.
“Go-“A distorted female voice rasped from inside the stall, and fan was shoved away by a sudden, violent
force.
Momentster, the stall door behind him erupted with pounding thuds.
*Rghhh!”
“Grahh!”
“Rrragh!”
M–now a zombie–was hammering at the stall door, shaking it on its hinges. In just <b>a </b><b>few </b>blows, the simple lock cracked open, splintering the wood. Her pale, lifeless face pressed against the narrow opening, zombie eyes dull and gray, howling at the people on the other side.
“M!”
“Ian!” Dawn and Jack rushed forward and yanked Ian back just as he tried to hurl himself toward her. Ian shoved them off and threw the keys to Theresa. “Take them and go!”
“Are you insane?! She’s turned! What are you staying for?!”
“I’m staying with her! Even if she’s a zombie, I’ll stay! Just go!” Ian stood between them and the flimsy door that could break at any second, eyes red and wild with emotion.
Then, with a crash, the door burst open. M staggered out–her face chalk–white, hair in disarray, zombie eyes clouded and gray–and lunged toward Ian.
Just when it seemed like he was doomed, M’s hands mmed into his chest–but instead of biting, she shoved him hard, sending him skidding across the floor to Dawn and Jack.
Her body trembled violently, veins darkened beneath her skin, her face twitching between pain and rage. But even then, something in her still fought back. Something human. She opened her bloody mouth wide and forced out a strangled sound. “Ghh… Go-”
“Drag him out!” Theresa barked. With the keys now in hand and Quentin slung over her back, she sprinted toward the exit.
Dawn and Jack each grabbed one of Ian’s arms. Adrenaline kicked in. They pulled him up and ran after Theresa, hauling him through the corridor with desperate speed.
Theresa reached the two SUVs she had left behind. While running, she fished through the keys. <ol start="54"><li><b></b>Wed 13 <b>AUG </b>MOL </li></ol>

<i>Beep </i>beep!
<i>Beep </i><i>beep</i>!
Both vehicles unlocked at once.
She tossed a nce over her shoulder. “Please tell me one of you can drive<i>.” </i>
Jack panted, “Kieran can!”
Theresa fell silent, speechless. It’s <i>a </i><i>no</i><i>, </i><i>then</i>.
“Get in!”
She didn’t waste time arguing. She stored one SUV back into her domain, shoved all three into the backseat of the remaining one, and climbed into the driver’s seat. Quentin was tossed into the passenger side, still bound. Theresa slid her arms through the gaps between his tied limbs and gripped the wheel tightly.
Trapped in that awkward position, Quentin couldn’t even sit upright. Buckling in was out of the question -he was practically folded in half. “Beautiful,” he drawled, “just untie me. I won’t run.”
“In your dreams.”
“You sure you can even drive like this?”
“I can.”
<i>Vrooom</i><i>! </i>
The engine roared to life. The queen of multitasking proved her point. Driving with a man tied to her wasn’t even a challenge.
She floored the gas and aimed straight for the front ss doors, and the ss shattered in a thunderous wave as the SUV plowed through, speeding out of the dealership.
Behind them, M, fully turned, shrieked and bolted after the vehicle in her blood–stained school uniform.
Theresa mmed the pedal down, the tires screeching as they tore down the road. Quentin was jostled in his seat, arms and legs trussed like luggage, but she held him firm.
From the back window, the others stared out at the rapidly fading figure of M. None of them said a word. Of the group that had entered the building, only three were left.
Ian especially couldn’t look away. He kept his eyes on the rear window until her figure disappearedpletely, and when it did, it was like someone had pulled the air from his lungs. His head dropped, and he didn’t say another word.
“You really loved your girlfriend that much?” Quentin ncedzily over his shoulder at the silent trio.
Ian stayed quiet. Dawn answered for him. “M and Ian grew up together. Childhood <b>swe </b>were boyfriend and girlfriend since elementary school. They even promised they’d <b>get </b>married after college.”

Quentin snorted. “Elementary school? What the hell do kids that <b>age </b><b>even </b>know?”
“Oh, right. Because <i>you’re </i>the authority on love,” Theresa scoffed. “His girlfriend turned into a zombie, and <b>he </b>still wouldn’t leave her. Meanwhile, all you do is run your mouth.
Queritin turned his head, his eye catching the light as he leaned toward Theresa. “I wouldn’t leave <b>you </b>either if you turned into a zombie. Hell, I’d even bring you fresh humans to eat every <b>day </b>
