 The gates open and Rick smiles at me. He pulls me into a hug and kisses the top of my head.

"We have the numbers Charlie." I look up and smile at Rick.

"Negan knows about Daryl leaving." I say.

"Yeah he." I cut him off.

"Don't tell me anything. I don't want Negan getting his men to try and torture it out of me." I say. "He is safe though. The Kingdom is taking care of him right?"

"Yes. He is safe. Morgan said he seen you a while back." I nod.

"That run we made was to the kingdom." I say. Rick leads me to his house.

"Michonne will be so happy to see you she has been talking non stop about you and she was asking when you were coming back." Rick says.

"You'd think I was the one in the relationship with her." Me and Rick laugh as we enter the house.

"Is that Charlie?" Carl walks through the kitchen and hugs me. I hug him tight and kiss his cheek.

"So how was the trip to the Sanctuary?" Michonne ask.

"I pissed some people off like normal. Caught Simon and Arot banging like damn rabbits in the service hall. I called them out at the round table and pissed Arot off. It was so much fun. Negan thinks me and Dwight are sleeping together so that pissed him off." I say.

"Why does that piss him off?" Rick ask.

"I don't know." Guilt cuts at me and I look back to Michonne she raises her eyebrow. 

"Charlie?" I turn and Rosita is looking at me. She narrows her eyes at me and makes her way to the kitchen.

"Hey Rosita." She sits down across from Michonne and plays with the knife in her hand.

"So the Saviours know about us looking for allies. The patrol have caught us going back and forth. They know about it Rick. They've been drilling me about what I know. There is also a spy. Someone in Alexandria is relaying information back to Negan." I say.

"Yeah you. Your the one who is telling them shit heads everything." Rosita says.

"Please at least I didn't get Eugene taken because I couldn't fucking aim. Please you have trying to get everyone to feel sorry for you since Abraham died. You have pushed Sasha away and made yourself a spiteful bitch. News flash Abe picked Sasha you went to Spencer you got laid get the hell over it." I growl.

"Your a fucking traitorous bitch." She spits.

"Please. If I was I would have already called check mate on this place. I haven't i've spent weeks on the road and inside trying to get intel." I say.

"Damn it Rosita shut up we need to talk to her if you can't sit there then leave." Rick points to the door as he talks. Rosita sits back and narrows her eyes at me.

"Negan is rallying up his guys. Dwight is trying to keep his ears open, but the more he hangs out with me the less he hears. He made sure the doors were unlocked so Daryl could get out. That was him Jesus happen to come across him." Rick looks at Michonne and their eyes go wide.

"Dwight helped us?" Carl ask.

"He hasn't really been behind since he burnt the side of his face." I say.

"Negan did that?" Michonne ask.

"Yeah. Sherry his wife she became a wife to stop Negan from killing Dwight. He had to make a point so he burned his face. Negan's way is cruel, but its effective. When Negan says jump they all say how high. Carl seen it when he was there, but the wives they have married Negan to stop their loved ones from getting hurt.  Sherry she is in the harem with like six or seven other girls. They are comfortable they don't want for anything. As far as i've seen if you raise a hand to a women or child you end up dead or put to the wall."

"What's the wall?" Rosita ask.

"It's a wall of walkers. They have them chained to polls and the fence the only way in is through there." I say.

"I remember that from my trip there. They had Daryl working the wall. Dwight was over Daryl." Carl says.

"Yeah. Dwight was put on Daryl because Negan knew about the forest and how Daryl tried to help Dwight, Sherry, and Sherry's sister." I say.

"Damn." Michonne looks at me once again.

"How do they treat you there?" Rick ask.

"Alright most of his men do alot of flirting. Between the death glares of Arot and the whistling i'd say the welcome me as part of them." I shrug.

"We need you to get close to Negan. Find out what he is planning." Rick says.

"Your asking me to find a way into his bed?" I ask.

"Basically." 

"Shouldn't be hard for you Charlie." Rosita says.

"Yeah because i'm the harlot." I shake my head.

"Are we done with the meeting?"

"Yeah you can go." As I go to get up I hear people arguing outside.

"What the hell?" I say.

I fling open the door and take off for the gate. I make it to the corner and almost let out a scream. Dwight lays bloody in the road.

"D!" I yell. I make it to him and bring his head up into my lap.

"What happened?" I ask.

"He knows Charls. He knows we helped Daryl escape." Dwight looks at me through an almost closed eye. Rick and the group stand around us in shock. Rosita looks away from the scene towards the gate

"How?" I ask.

"Sherry she told him we did it. She was mad about the scene in the dinning hall. She told me that I would suffer as she had. He was so mad he sent Simon after me. Simon almost succeeded but I made my way here. He's pissed Charls. He was so angry he destroyed your room. He said you were nothing but a whore." I shake my head and help him up.

"We will make it I promise." I say.

"I hope so Charls." I help him to my house and lay him on the couch.

"Were going to be ok." I look at the walls and pray that i'm right.
