how many stars would you cross just to love again? ⟡ slow burn, but I promise it's worth it in the end. - I hope you enjoy it! I hope to make more fanfics in the future. 🤍 p.s. I don't make y/n fanfics simply because I'm preparing to write actual books so I want to practice here. Sorrryhy

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.

The Enclave calls her an asset. The wasteland calls her a bounty. She calls herself a survivor. After escaping a classified mutation program designed to create the perfect weapon, she's spent months hiding the power burning beneath her skin-a power they refined through pain, death and resurrection until it obeyed. Almost. When a retrieval team corners her in a dying town, she's forced to reveal what they made her. Unfortunately, the only witness is the last man she should trust. A notorious Ghoul bounty hunter who now knows exactly how valuable she is. He could turn her in for more caps than he's ever seen. Instead, he offers a deal. Forced into an uneasy alliance, they navigate Enclave kill squads, bounty hunters hungry for a payout, and a wasteland that's starting to whisper their names together. She doesn't fear him. He doesn't flinch from what she's become. But the Enclave wants her returned alive. And the longer they travel together, the more dangerous it becomes - not because of the power inside her... ...but because she's starting to realize she was never meant to belong to anyone. And he's starting to believe it too.

Elsie MacLean has always looked after her younger siblings, Lucy and Norm. It was never a choice. It was who she was. The perfect daughter, polished and placed on a pedestal by her father, Hank, Elsie hid her dreams of the surface and her desires to explore the world. When shit hits the fan, Elsie teams up with Lucy to find their father, but things go wrong and Lucy vanishes in the night, leaving only silence, fear, and questions. To find her, Elsie ventures further into the wasteland with the last person she should trust: The Ghoul. A man shaped by a dead world, dangerous, ruthless, and impossible to read. Together, they follow Lucy's trail through ruins and radiation, where survival demands sacrifice and love becomes a liability. Because in the wasteland, finding your sister might cost you everything. Set in the world of Fallout (TV Series) ☢️ -Canon divergence -OFC/Elsie MacLean x Cooper Howard/The Ghoul -

Ivy doesn't look like much. She's quiet, competent, forgettable by design. But she's carrying the aftermath of an Enclave experiment that never should've existed. Taken just as radiation began to change her, Ivy was infected with a prototype virus meant to halt ghoulification. Across the wasteland, the virus failed-mutating, killing, or doing nothing at all. With Ivy, it worked too well. She never finished turning. Frozen at twenty-eight, suspended between human and ghoul, her body became something unnatural: stable, altered, and unknowingly invaluable. After escaping, she buried the truth and survived by keeping her head down-until the bounty exposed her existence. What neither of them understands at first is that Ivy's blood heals Cooper. Not like chems. Not like stimpaks. Something deeper. Slower. Real. Stronger. Addictive. Around her, he decays less. When he drinks her blood, he heals completely. She becomes the one thing he's never had in the wasteland: relief. As the line between protection and possession blurs, Cooper must confront what he's becoming-and Ivy must decide how much of herself she's willing to give to stay alive in a world that only sees her as a resource.
