Ryan lives alone in a small compound, having finally reached the point of surviving with relative ease. The population in his area has long since dwindled to zero, and he rarely sees another human. After finishing his daily walk around the perimeter, he goes inside to retire for the night.
There’s an intruder waiting for him, crouched and out of sight. They step up behind him when he goes inside, placing their gun at his head.
He’s roped to a chair before he finally sees her face. He can’t believe it, she’s gorgeous, and robbing him blind. The ropes are sturdy and true, and he has no hope of escaping before she leaves with everything, not until she comes down with a sudden fever, and stumbles into his room to sleep it off, giving him a brief window of time to figure out how to turn the tables.
