Post Plague Kidnapping - Published!
It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.

ALL THAT REMAINS (Book 1) - A Zombie Story
In a world ravaged by the collapse of civilization, where the dead walk and the living fight for scraps, survival is more than instinct- it's the only thing that matters. Bella Grant, a 21-year-old engineering student, finds herself thrust into a chaotic new reality. When she's saved by Max, a stoic military captain with a dark past, the two must rely on each other to stay alive. But the infected are not the only danger. In this new world where trust is a fleeting memory, Max and Bella discover that the greatest threat to their survival may come from the living. Ruthless and desperate survivors are willing to do anything to claim what's left, testing their courage and their growing bond in ways that could break them. With enemies at every turn and their bond growing stronger, Bella and Max must face the question: will they make it through this brutal new reality, or will the dangers of survival tear them apart? Is there hope left, or is humanity truly lost? And most of all, can they find a way to keep what remains of their lives intact? ___ Note : This is the first book in a three-part series, but can be read as standalone.

ALL THAT FOLLOWS - A Zombie Story
The end came quietly. Survival didn't. Seth walks alone now - through ruins and silence, through the bones of a world that forgot how to live. The dead outnumber the living, and the ones who've survived have learned to be colder than winter steel. But no matter how far he goes, memory follows. Of who he was, of everything he lost. Of the faces that haunt his sleep and the blood that never quite washed off. In a world that punishes kindness and buries the weak, Seth isn't searching for hope. He's just trying not to fall apart. But sometimes, the road doesn't care what you want. Sometimes, it gives you someone to protect - whether you're ready or not. Because even a broken man has one last fight left in him. ___ Note : All That Follows is a sequel to All That Remains. It carries echoes, secrets, and scars from what came before. While it can be read on its own, within these pages lie spoilers, fragments of a past some readers may wish to discover firsthand. Step forward as you will, but know the ghosts are watching.Complete
Scars bled in Ink
In a world long since burned down, survival isn't the hardest part anymore. It's what comes after-the quiet, the grief, the memories that won't die even when everything else has. Ryan doesn't talk much. He writes. In torn, ink-stained pages of a weathered journal, he records the days he survives, the names of those he's lost, and the thoughts he can't speak aloud. That journal becomes his voice, his shield-his only lifeline in a world that keeps taking more. The world doesn't care about healing. It doesn't stop for broken people. It just keeps breaking them. And Ryan? He's still here. Still breathing. Still bleeding between the lines. Every page he writes is another scar. Another memory he can't escape. But it's also proof that he's still fighting to exist in a world that tried to erase him. Ink-Bled Scars isn't about saving the world. It's about what's left when the world is already gone. It's about trauma, memory, survival, love, and the quiet truths that live in silence. Through Ryan's journal, you'll see not just what the world looks like-but what it feels like to someone who's lived through its worst. ⚠️ This story contains sensitive themes: trauma, mental illness, substance abuse, SA, and death. Trigger warnings will be listed at the top of each chapter. Please read with care. I do not own AMC's original The Walking Dead characters. This is a fan-made passion project that includes original characters and storylines. I write this from a place of deep love for these characters, so please be patient with updates. Chapters will be posted weekly, but the schedule may vary-especially once school starts again. Follow along for updates and extras on TikTok: @daryls.little.brother Thank you for reading. I hope this story finds you when you need it most.
Through Blood and Ash
Through Blood and Ash. What's left after everything burns? --------- They warned us. We didn't listen. Now the world is dead - and the dead are all that's left. The year is 6062, and humanity has collapsed under the weight of its own arrogance. A cure meant to save us twisted into something monstrous, turning loved ones into soulless predators with only one instinct: kill. Cara has lost everything - her family, her home, and the illusion that safety still exists. With a small band of survivors, she clings to life on the run, haunted by the screams of those she couldn't save... especially her brother. But when a desperate choice forces them back into the infected zones, Cara will have to decide what's worse: the monsters outside, or the guilt that's been tearing her apart from within. In a world where hope is dying and nightmares walk in daylight, survival comes at a cost - and not everyone is willing to pay it. -------------------------------- REWRITTEN I've gone back and rewritten this story from the ground up. As well as changed the name. The original had a strong foundation, but I knew there was more I could bring to it-more depth, more heart, and a better reading experience. I truly hope you enjoy this new version. And if you're returning from the original, thank you for sticking with me-I hope this one resonates with you just as much, if not more.Complete
Until I'm Dead
When the world goes to shit, what do you think of your chances of survival? The students of Weststone High are about to figure out just that as they get thrust into a world where what was once their peers are now hellbent on tasting their flesh. Follow along while this ragtag team of mis-matched students learn just where they stand in the new food chain with just one single goal: survive. - The world is changed. I think I've changed along with it but I'm not sure. Who I was before this is just a hazy fog in my mind now. I wish I had kept a journal. Before. Something to remind me what life was like before every day became a fight. Maybe then I'd remember why I'm trying so hard to survive. I don't think I can hold on much longer like this, though. I can feel my will fading away. Bending. Folding. I don't want to go out alone in this cold desolation. Will you stay with me? At least, until I'm dead? -
𝑨 𝑯𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑴𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒅𝒚. (𝒏𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒏)
Trying to survive the apocalypse isn't just about slaying the undead. It's a 𝘸𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘦 lot more complicated than that. Hardly anybody ever considers the barbaric murderers with the Cheshire Cat smiles or the cunning killers lurking around for their next victim to slice open. Or what about the huge range of communities out there, trying their best to thrive in the new world? Surely, not all of them are bad... right? Well, Brooklyn Scotts would be inclined to disagree to that last point made. For the girl has been surviving on her own since it all started, joining and leaving small groups here and there. But when she just so happens to unintentionally seek help on her travels, her whole world is turned upside down and she finds herself breaking all the rules. <><><> Highest Rank(s): » #1 Negan » #1 TheWalkingDead » #1 Rickgrimes <><><> || Negan X OC || || Mature Content || || Please Enjoy || <><><> » started late 2017 » completed summer 2019Complete
