Dead Man Walking: Living By Day, Dead By Night

Chapter 96: An Awkward Misunderstanding



The girl was snapped back to reality as she saw Zane staring at her with his cold black eyes. Though he was demanding to know what her name was, the two women by his side were glaring at him. She had to admit, this was indeed was a peculiar situation to be in.

Nevertheless, the young blonde woman lowered her head before answering her new master. I mean, it was not like she really had a choice, now did she?

"Angelica…"

Zane immediately shifted his focus to Elena and Olivia, almost as if Angelica was not even there, while addressing the concerns that the other two women had regarding the sudden appearance of this third beauty.

"See, her name is Angelica. She's the new slave I purchased…"

Elena and Olivia immediately became outraged. Not necessarily because Zane was partaking in a morally abhorrent practice, one that had only recently been re-founded in the United States following the beginning of the apocalypse.

But rather, they were mortified by the fact that Zane had bought this woman for the sole purpose of venting his lust onto her. Or so they thought. Elena's fists curled while she looked away from Zane with a flustered expression.

She had no idea how to speak to the man when he so brazenly admitted to something so reprehensible. However, her outrage was immediately shifted to Olivia, who said something that stunned even Zane.

"Zane, how could you? If you were so pent up, you could have asked me to help you take care of your physical needs! I would have gladly given you my body!"

Elena was not the only one whose attention shot straight towards Olivia, who was flushed red with embarrassment after saying something so shameful. Zane also gazed at the woman with a dumbfounded expression on his face, almost as if he had never expected her to express such intentions towards him.

And even though Angelica had just met this trio, she also looked at Olivia as if she were absolutely shameless. I mean, Zane had to be close to half the age of this silver-haired woman. Was it not entirely inappropriate to suggest such a thing?"

Ultimately, it was Elena who spoke first, her eyes glaring daggers at Olivia's embarrassed figure while she shouted at the woman in a voice so loud that she definitely attracted attention from the nearby refugees who were squatting in the safe zone.

"We have already talked about this! And what exactly do you mean he can use your body? You're his fucking homeroom teacher. Have you no shame, woman!?!"

After hearing the outrage, and hidden jealousy in Elena's tone it was as if Olivia had steeled her resolve as she crossed her arms beneath her bust, allowing her rather larger bosom to rest upon them, all while staring Elena down in an outright challenge for dominance.

"Teacher? What teacher? Don't tell me you are still living in some delusional fantasy where you believe things can go back to the way they were? The old world is gone, Elena! The relationship Zane and I had as teacher and student ended the day the undead virus broke out! Now we are just a man and a woman surviving together.

Is it really wrong for Zane to find comfort in my arms?"

Zane did not remember anything else that came out of Elena or Olivia's mouths as the two women immediately had a catfight, pressing their chests against one another as they slang vicious words at one another. Instead, Zane sighed heavily and instinctively reached towards his coat, which was still hiding Angelica's shame.

When he reached inside the jacket to grab his cigarettes, Zane felt something massive, round, perky, and soft graze against his hand. Followed by a whimper from the girl he had accidentally groped.

The moment Angelica made this scandalous noise, she fell to her knees, almost as if she were afraid Zane was making a move on her. And this, of course, attracted Elena and Olivia's attention, who shifted their fury towards one another onto him.

Zane did not hear anything they said, while clearly chastising him for purchasing a woman as a sex slave, which he had yet to correct the misunderstanding of. Instead, he couldn't help but look at the two beauties with a bit of confusion on his face.

Though they did not hear his internal monologue, Zane's thoughts were far more important to him than the words these women were shouting at him.

'What the hell? Why are they reacting so strongly to this? It was clearly an accident. I just wanted to smoke…. Wait, a second… They haven't developed feelings for me, have they? No, how would that be possible?

It's clear that they are just getting possessive, because I'm the only man in their lives at the moment.

But would Olivia really go so far as to give her body to me, simply because of that? I guess what they say is true… When society collapses, a woman will revert to her true nature and find a man to protect her in exchange for giving him access to her body…'

The two women had no idea what thoughts Zane was having as he came to a misunderstanding about their feelings towards him. Instead, they continued to rant until he had enough of it. Zane then interrupted Elena and Olivia after ignoring them entirely and instead chose to help Angelica to her feet.

"Would you two get your filthy minds out of the gutter already? I didn't buy Angelica to have sex with her, even if that's what all of those other perverted wanted from purchasing her. I bought her to join our team. Until now, there have only been three of us.

And in case you haven't noticed, the number of higher Tier Undead is increasing with each passing day. If we don't add more people to our group, then sooner or later the increase in Abominations will be the death of us. Did you forget how many we lost the last time we had to fight one of those things?

I figured that buying a slave, whose loyalty I can count on, was easier than asking strangers to join our group. Strangers who will most likely gut us in our sleep. And assuming Angelica survives her awakening, she will be an excellent addition to our team."

When Elena and Olivia realized that they had jumped to some rather perverted conclusions about Zane's intentions towards Angelica, they immediately turned completely red. Neither of which were willing to look at Zane, especially after the things they had just said openly towards him.

As for Zane, he immediately reached back into the coat he had given Angelica, this time minding her size as he fetched his cigarettes and lit them. After which he tossed one of the two bags wrapped around his back onto the ground, where he then asked Elena and Olivia to take care of a little problem he had.

"Now that this little misunderstanding has been cleared, can the two of you help Angelica get dressed inside the Humvee? I mean, I'm not complaining, but lingerie and high heels are not exactly the most efficient means of clothing, considering we are quite literally living in the apocalypse, don't you think?"

The two women looked at Zane and realized that he had graciously given them an out. Because of this, Elena and Olivia did not hesitate to do as he asked. Taking Angelica into the Humvee, where they sealed off the windows with spare blankets. They would then help the girl get dressed in a more practical sense of attire. All the while, Zane smoked and kept watch.

As for the girl's awakening, and Olivia's level up, those two things would have to wait until after Angelica was properly dressed. And though the three women weren't around to hear it, Zane sighed and shook his head after thinking about what Olivia and Elena had said during their little argument. He alone heard the words that escaped his mouth.

"Fucking perverts… Have some self restraint…."
