⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 stars. Once again, I ABSOLUTELY love this world and the characters. This book follows drak and Anna, who we met in invasion of sorority z, which is an alien x human romance, fated mates, zombie apocalyptic world, and a one sided dislike to lovers. If you’ve read book 1 and loved Anna and drak, then you will 100% fall in love with them here. Drak’s loyalty, protectiveness, obsessiveness with Anna is so freaking amazing. I loved how he showed Anna that he is genuine about her and has zero intentions to leave her whether or not they’re in a relationship. Like this male loves her anger and ferociousness, whereas it can scare other people off, but he is in awe of her. It was so nice to see Anna slowly open up to drak once she recognized his genuineness , plus it was so sweet that she taught him human phrases when his brain chip couldn’t translate it. I cannot wait for more books in this world like Sarah and rem and possibly terum and brook and Caleb and lovan 👏👏.

Favorite quotes/scenes:


“Do something alien-like, and I won’t shoot you again.”
“Oh no,” I taunt, holding up my hands in surrender. “Not the tickles.”

“I believe I am happier than I have been in a very long time. And I am going to make that mean little hu-nim into my best friend.”

“An-nana does not like many things, it is adorable. Sometimes I wish she liked me more, but I am okay with her fiery spirit. Perhaps I would not have been so drawn to her if she did not try to assassinate me several times, and that is unimaginable.”

“I can smell my mean little creature. But even if I couldn’t, I would keep my eyes on her to know that she is safe. Sometimes knowing that An-nana is safe is the only thing that fuels me to continue my day. She has her small hu-nim fist around my soul seed, even if it will not glow for her.”

“You are welcome, An-nana. I enjoy helping you. You are my friend.”
“I am?”
“Of course. The best of friends.”
“You have terrible taste in friends.”
His head shakes, and he crowds me, leaning down to lift my chin with a single finger.
“I have the best taste, An-nana.”

“This is a beverage? It is sizzling, like acid.”
“It’s not acid, it’s carbonation. It’s just air bubbles.”
“Are you sure you’re not attempting to poison me, An-nana?” 

“What is this Magic Mike?”
“A man who takes off his clothes to get money from women.”
“These females pay to see him unclothed?”
“Do you owe me payment now, Mean One?”
“You wouldn’t know how to use money if I gave it to you.”
“Perhaps there is something else you might wish to give me instead?”

“An-nana smells like the best things. Like fresh air, sunshine, and anger.”

“You say it wrong all the time. It’s Anna. Not An-nana.
“This is what I call you. An-na is too short, it is not fitting for you.”
“And you think you know me well enough to rename me, do you?”
“I do not rename you. I call you An-nana, so I do not have to stop saying your name so quickly.”

“Drak?”
“Yes, An-nana?”
“It’s a good thing that you don’t want to kiss another female again.”
“Oh?”
“Yes. Because if you do, I’ll kick your ass. No one else is allowed to touch you now.”

“Some humans like rougher stuff. Like being tied up or spanked.”
“Do you like this? What is sp-anked?”
“Being spanked is when you have someone hit you⁠—”
“I will not hit you!” he exclaims, practically shaking at the implication.

“Is that what you want, Drak? To be my mate?”
Considering my question carefully, he nods.
“I would have been your friend forever without complaint, An-nana. If that were all you wished to give me, I would still cherish it. Even as I have tasted you, I would yearn for you in secret, but I could not bear the thought of pressuring you in any way.”

“You set our pace, An-nana. You could offer me no more than longing looks, hugs, quick kisses, and your presence, and I will be more than content. You are a gift, Mean One, know this.”

“I am glad that she shot me with her hu-nim weapon before another one of the females caught my attention. An-nana is the perfect match for me, and I would be unhappy with any other. An-nana’s kisses taste like sunshine but any others would taste of poison.”

“I have conquered spanking. Of course, I have. I am an excellent learner.”

“How do I tell her that she makes me feel as if my life has only begun since laying my eyes upon her? How do I tell her that if her hu-nim weapon would have killed me that day, I would have died smiling while staring up at her?”

“I don’t think I’ve ever been happier that I survived the zombie apocalypse. I used to think it was more bitter than sweet to have lived because of pure luck and circumstance. But now, with Drak? Nothing is bitter.”

“He is a bright light, constantly shining—now literally shining because of his soul seed—making every moment of hopeless searching feel not-so impossible.”

“There is no other way I wish to live than by living at your side for eternity.”
“That’s good. Since I should probably tell you, as a part of my new feelings communication, I love you so fucking much.”

“An-nana loves me. She did not mean to hurt me. She never wished to be without me. And AN-NANA LOVES ME!”

“I want you to know that I appreciate you, Drak. You make me feel like my life is full of meaning. I couldn’t see myself ever surviving without you.”
“Nor I without you, An-nana.”

“Gay means he wishes to mate with males.”
“You do?”
“Yeah? Got a problem with that?”
“N-no. I… it is nice.”

“If you didn’t show me that I deserved to be loved, I would have never believed it.”
“If you did not show me that I am a good mate, I would never have believed it either, my An-nana. My love for you knows no bounds.”
