Secrets Untold. (Maggie x fem!reader)
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.

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! <33Complete
Please don't love me like you loved my mother |OC| Beth greene | Rosita Espinosa
Daryl Dixon's!sister OC 🕸️ they never did love her mother. "Pa wasn't no daddy, Merle might've been my daddy but he's long gone, and you for sure ain't my daddy, so get off my ass." Destiny Dixon is fucking strange. It's the only way to describe her. She gets yelled at for staring at the lady friends her Pa and her brother bring home. She's gruff and unsociable like the rest of her family, and she doesn't look like she even remotely belongs to them. Her mama, a-probably illegal-Mexican woman that Pa had never wanted to admit knocking up. She'd married Will Dixon, suffering through his infidelity and addictions, and promptly kicked the bucket when her daughter was five. The good thing about being strange and a Dixon is that there isn't anyone to see you being weird. Dusty-she hates Destiny, makes her sound like as much of a whore as her mother was-had spent her childhood isolated with only immature grown men for company, and now that the dead are rising and she's been thrust in to a camp full of rather normal people, Dusty's gotta get her shit together. She can't rely on her brothers forever. Reuploaded from AO3 under the same user

Second Wind | TWD
-ˏˋ ꜰᴏʀ ʏᴏᴜ, ɪ'ᴅ ꜱᴛᴇᴀʟ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴛᴀʀꜱ.ˊˎ- Elodie Price had never heard the soft breeze of the wind or the sound of birds singing in the trees. After losing her older brother and her mother, the world had become grey. Ten years old, and already the universe had stripped her of everything. She couldn't see any reason to keep moving, no one to protect her. The Walkers would find her soon enough. With her hearing loss, she wouldn't even hear them coming. She could barely hear the world screaming around her. Her mother had always been harsh - never quite satisfied with anything Elodie did - and her brother distant. The little bits of love that trickled through, the faint scraps of affection, always seemed to slip through her fingers like water. She didn't belong. Not to them, not to anyone. So when she had come to the conclusion that maybe it was her turn to go, she never expected anyone to care. She never expected anyone to save her. Certainly not someone like Daryl Dixon. 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰; ©𝙙𝙞𝙭𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙧𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙: 𝙛𝙚𝙗. 𝟭𝟮 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙: - updates set in season 5 (the earlier chapters truly suck in my opinion, so once you get to like chapter 10 or so it gets better :,P) DISCLAIMER: I do not own The Walking Dead, or its storyline. I only own my orignal characters.
