A Bond to survive

If someone had ever told Daryl that he would lay eyes on Sam McCoy again, he would have thought they were downright delusional. He had left her and all the pain of his old life behind when he fled with his brother. But life has a cruel way of playing tricks, and Daryl found himself at the bottom of that cosmic joke. His beliefs and sense of self were shattered when Glenn and Maggie brought an unconscious woman into their lives, a woman who was no stranger to him.

Twenty years separated the boy and the man looking at the person in his arms, but while riding back to the prison, he felt like not a single day had passed. He was again the young man who fell deeply for her and not the bastard who abandoned a girl when she most needed him.
