Stockpiling in the Apocalypse with My Little One

*Reader's Guide: ABO, no extra baggage, the child is biologically theirs. This is a brainless, feel-good story written to indulge my preferences, so don't worry about plot logic.

At twenty-three, a Virgo, Lu Lian considered herself an utterly ordinary female Alpha, apart from her almost pathological hoarding habit.

That was Lu Lian's accurate self-assessment before the apocalypse, especially since her pheromone rank was a pitiful D, and its scent was rather faint, like coconut water.

Lu Lian often comforted herself by thinking that at least it was better than plain water.

But the hoarding habit that had once seemed like a burden and a nuisance saved her life when the apocalypse came.

When the world outside fell into chaos and terrifying zombies roamed everywhere, she was glad she had enough supplies at home to keep her from starving for three years.

While other survivors fought over the few cans of sardines left on convenience-store shelves, Lu Lian happily nibbled on little rolls like a hamster.

But her peaceful life was suddenly interrupted when someone knocked on her door. Outside stood a beautiful Omega who seemed both familiar and like a stranger.

As Lu Lian hesitated over whether to open the door, she saw on the security camera a tiny child who looked almost exactly like her.

The little one seemed to sense her gaze. She lifted her face and cried plaintively toward the camera, "Mommy~"

Lu Lian's heart melted, and all reason went out the window. She opened the door and took the mother and daughter in.

Lu Lian had planned to live one day at a time on the food she had stockpiled, but now there were two more mouths to feed, and the little one was still growing.

Life is hard, the little Alpha sighed.

Lu Lian grabbed an axe and went out hunting. She could go hungry herself, but she couldn't let her wife and daughter go hungry.

After the simple-minded little Alpha Lu Lian nervously hacked down zombie after zombie like chopping melons and vegetables, she was surprised to discover that she had been bound to the Child-Raising System and had also awakened an ability.

Then she found that her ability seemed to level up whenever she cuddled with her bargain wife.

After that, things got out of hand.

The pure-hearted little Alpha Lu Lian led the beautiful little Omega into the bedroom, perfectly calm and with no blush on her face.

But she said with complete seriousness, "The biggest supermarket in the city must have the formula our little one needs, but there are too many zombies in there..."

The little Alpha had the perfect excuse: she had to keep raising her ability level to provide for her wife and child.

Her bargain wife said nothing and simply indulged her.

And so the family of three traveled from one city to the next, hunting and stockpiling supplies while cuddling to level up.

Until one day, Lu Lian was about to use the same old trick and pull her wife in for a cuddle, when the beautiful little Omega, who had always been so cooperative, suddenly looked at the little Alpha with a knowing smile.

Shen Mingyan pinched Lu Lian's ear and asked, "I heard the person you rescued today was your college crush?"

Lu Lian shook her head vigorously.

She hurriedly promised, "No! My only crush, whether she's my white moonlight, red moonlight, blue moonlight, or rainbow moonlight, is you, honey!"
