Forced to love you Cover Done By @Natasha Palma Negan Fanfiction

Deserving Of Death.

Negan's P.O.V.

My hand's clinch my deadly bat, as I walk down to the cells.  It's still early in the morning, and most of my men are asleep. My soul is in conflict as I process my future wife's words. Mercy is not a concept I am familiar with, but I want to learn more about.

It's amazing how much one woman can change your life, and make me want a better life. Her concept of mercy keeps bouncing in my head, making me question my desire for vengeance.

I know that Spencer deserves death, I could care less about that asshole, but Dwight, I am more inclined to know why he betrayed me. He has always been loyal, and I know he must have thought he would gain something.

Suddenly I stop at his cell door, as the realization hits me. He did it for Sherry. A man would do anything for the woman he loves. I know I would do anything for Jax. That's how I know I love her and need her in my life. That must be how Dwight has felt about Sherry, and I can't fault him for wanting his own wife back.

Twisting the lock, I then open the door, to see a defeated man before me.  I see myself in him, just a few days ago, I sat in this same cell. I deserved what happened, because of the way I ruled this place. I don't swerve Jax or the right to be a leader, but I didn't get what I deserved. I got Mercy.

"Dwight, I need you to answer this question for me. I don't want to hear some bullshit answer from you. I want the damn truth.  Why did you betray me?"  My voice lowered, as my anger began to resurfaces.

Dwight's head lifts from his knees, showing off his bruised up face.

" I did it because you're an evil man, and you deserve to die." Dwight gritted out, as his eyes bore into mine.

I shook my head, as I chuckled darkly at my prisoner.

" Dwight boy, that is not the correct answer. Let's try this one more fucking time." 

I walked closer to him, then crouched down making me eye level with him. I lifted his chin with my bat, allowing his icy blue eyes to meet my amber ones.

" Why did you do it?"

" You know why."

" Say it."

Dwight pushed me away, knocking me on my ass. He stood up, then banged his cuffed fists against his metal hell hole.

" Sherry! You stole my wife! I wanted her back! That's all! I love her!"

Dwight's body trembled as he crumbled to the old dirty floor.

" All I want is to be with her. "

I had my answer, and I knew what I had to do. My hands grip his worn-out shirt, picking him up successively, then I push him against his cell door.

I took my knife, then cut his binds loose, allowing him to move freely.

" Dwight, I banish you and Sherry from this place. This is your one shot, to be with her. If any of my men see you, then they will kill you.

You can't take anything from here, only leave with your lives. This is something you don't deserve, but that's what mercy is. Now, get your hot ass wife, and leave here. "

My former lieutenant stood there in shock, as he tries to take in my words. He thinks its a trick, so keeps in place, not moving from his spot.

" I am not leaving. " He states firmly.

" I said to get the fuck out of here! Before anybody sees you leave!" I yelled as I pull him out of his cell.

" Why are you letting me leave?"

" Jax, it's because of her. She changed me, and I know what its like now to be willing to do anything for someone you love. I can't hate you for wanting your wife back. "

Dwight starts to walk away but stops halfway down the hallway.

" Thank you Negan."

"Let's just call us even."
