Cursed by the 'Moreno' family name, the odds were never in your favor. Single handedly raising your baby sister and dealing with your junkie mother was all that your life consisted of. That was, until you met Rio. (RIO X READER) SLOOOOOOWBURN‼️

When the world went to hell it didn't make much difference to y/n's life. She was alone before everything and she was alone now. When everything started she avoided people. It was easier on her own, or so she thought. In her eyes, people were no different than animals now and she wasn't going to risk getting killed just to have people by her side. That is, until she finds a small girl lost in the woods... Learning the girl had lost her group, Y/n, for the first time in a long time, was willing to find people. To reunite the small girl with her family. But when she does finally stumble across the group, which was slowly falling apart at the seams, she can't seem to leave them. Something in her decided to stay and help. That and a brunette woman... NOTE: I LOVE Maggie and saw no x reader fics, so I decided, hey I'll write one. I will do a male reader one if requested! I also plan to make a carol one cuz she's a queeeen! Obviously all characters belong to twd minus any oc's I may add. This will be updated DAILY! Hope you enjoy! Note: Special thanks to @karsonromanoff for putting together a cover for me! They're super talented, creative and a great writer, so be sure to check them out! <33

"Are you trying to get me drunk, officer?" "What if I am?" Thirty-two-year-old office worker, Elaina Heart was all alone on the streets of Atlanta when a man in a sheriff's uniform trots down the road on a horse. She decides to join him on his mission to find his family because she doesn't want to be left behind. The two run into a massive hoard that cuts them off. They are forced to hide inside an abandoned tank on the now busy streets. Just when they think all hope is lost, a man's voice comes over the radio. He rescued them and the two join a new group on the outskirts of Atlanta. What happens when Elaina begins to fall for the married man? What happens when he starts to discover feelings for her too? And what happens when his wife finds out? #4 in #rickgrimes 3/2/23 #1 in #andrewlincoln 3/6/23-3/9/23 #2 in #andrewlincoln 3/10/23 #2 in #andrewlincoln 3/15/23-3/23/23 #1 in #andrewlincoln 3/24/23-3/27/23 TW!! Mentions of death, suicide, SA, blood, harsh language and gore. Note #1: 90% of all characters and storylines all are based off of the TV Show and comic series The Walking Dead. I do not take credit for these characters. Note #2: Some storylines are changed to better fit my ideas for how this story will go. Not everything will be like how you see on tv. Note #3: There is smut in this book. I wasn't originally planning on it but due to popular demand, there is a handful of smutty chapters that will be appearing. You're welcome. Note #4: This book was originally named "Sheriff's Lover ||| Rick Grimes x Reader (TWD x Reader)" but after further review, I decided to turn Y/N into an OC. I'm sorry if this comes as a surprise to some of my older readers. Started: January 17th, 2023. Changed from x reader to OC on: December 3rd, 2024.

** DISCLAIMER: I wrote this when I was fourteen. Please keep that in mind when you read the overly dramatic passages, uncreative insults, and generally self-centered behavior. Grammar is 95% correct and story is very fun, but this was written by a 14 year old. You have been warned.** ---- "I'm a glass half-full kinda guy." When you find yourself in the middle of the apocalypse in Atlanta, you almost give up on living when four survivors find you in the building you are staying in. And suddenly, you're not giving up on living just yet. - This story is a reader insert, and there are several terms that you, as the reader, may need to know if you have not read one of these types of stories before.
