Sleeping With The Enemy - Simon's POV (TWD Simon fanfic)

The Saviours

I was beginning to wonder if this was it. 

Was this all life had to offer now?

We kill so we can live.

We live so we can kill.

There must be more to the god forsaken life than just living.

I had met Negan early on in this apocalypse. We had hit it off from the start. It was like we had know each other our entire lives, as if we were brothers. 

We built the Saviours together, I enjoyed being his right hand man. But he definitely got more enjoyment out of this life than I did. I certainly didn't have a hareem of wives. 

I had zoned out as the man in front of me, obviously terrified, babbled about what they could offer us in return for our protection. 

"Hilltop looks forward to working with you" he stuttered

"Glad to hear it Gregory" I grinned "Now let's go and see what you have to offer"

I followed him out into the street, the residents lining the pavements, all curious as to who we were and what we wanted.

I was wearing a khaki shirt with a couple of buttons undone, black trousers and leather boots, I rested my thumbs in my belt as I surveyed the crowds.

"I'm Simon" I bellowed, addressing them all "and we're the saviours" I continued gesturing to my group. "The lovely Gregory here.." I smirked as Gregory trotted alongside me, he was like a useless puppy, would follow wherever I went but none of the cuteness or fun of an actual puppy....more like a sheep "has accepted our offer of a deal. In exchange for our protection, we will make weekly visits for half your stuff" the air suddenly filled by the mumblings of the Hilltops residents, they all obviously had an opinion on what I'd just said. But there was only one of them I was interested in. She was sat on the floor, and man was she beautiful. I caught her roll her eyes and scoff.

"You got something to say little lady?" I challenged, standing directly in front of her in an attempt to intimidate her. It worked, but I could tell she was trying to not let it show. She was going to be a handful, I could tell that already.

"Just confused as to why all of a sudden we need protection from a bunch of action men, when we seem to have done pretty well so far" she mocked, I could see Gregory squirm out of the corner of mu eye and everyone around us tense. Her friend stepped towards her protectively, but she wasn't going to protect her from me. I smirked at her reference to the plastic dolls and felt a twitch in my pants at the fact she so openly challenged me. Without warning i grabbed her hair and pulled her to her feet. She grimaced but endured the pain to remain strong, putting a hand on her friends arm to reassure her.

"You want to try disrespect me now?" I asked, face serious, lip twitching in what she probably presumed was rage, byt was actually amusement combined with desire. She was hot and her calling me out like this turned me on something rotten.

"I'm sure she didn't mean any harm Sir, there's no need for violence." blabbered Gregory from behind me. I released her hair and smoothed it out with a sarcastic grin on my face.

"boys take what you want!" I yelled as the men ran into houses and supply units tearing the place apart. She watched in horror...as hot as she was, there had to be consequences for speaking out like that. She started to step back but I grabbed her arm.

"where's your house sweetheart?" I asked.

"its this one" blurted Gregory pointing behind us before she could say anything else.

I smirked and shoved past her into the house.

I was going to have fun with this one.

"well missy you sure are a disappointment" I laughed as she walked in "sharp tongue and no shit worth taking.....downstairs at least" with that I marched up her stairs and she followed.  I flipped her mattress off her bed and scanned the room. I caught sight of some of her underwear on the floor and had to check myself.

"sorry to disappoint" she laughed "I'll wear a warning sign next time" I turned to look at her, unsure whether she could see the lust fuelled fire in my eyes. She barely had time to blink before I had strode across the room and pinned her to the wall by her throat, it wasn't a tight hold, I clearly didn't want to hurt her. She just smirked. Shit. I had never been so affected by a woman before, and it had been a really long time since I had felt anything close to desire.

"Oh trust me lady there's gonna be a next time" I promused licking my bottom lip. I hoped there would be anyway. I winked and left her stood there. Rushing out of the house before I did something stupid.

She wouldn't want me. People say us as the monsters who stole their supplied. I was dreaming if I thought she would ever feel the same desire for me that I had quickly developed for her. Dream was one thing I could do though....and man was I gonna enjoy that.
