Taken by the Saviors alongside Daryl, Reader makes a promise to get them out of there, no matter the cost. She promises herself that she's killing Negan on the way out too. When Negan offers Daryl a position as a Savior and Daryl refuses, she volunteers to take his place. Being that close to the inner circle of the Sanctuary isn't an opportunity she can pass up. Negan agrees, believing that having the golden girl of Alexandria fighting with him is exactly what they need to realize who's in charge now. He drags her around, his personal soldier. Every visit to Alexandria, pick-up, and punishment. He'll never see her as more than a pawn, something he stole from Rick She's useless to Alexandria from here, only ever a few paces behind him, waiting for his next order. She hates it, sick with the guilt of pointing a gun at her friends and family. She wants nothing more than to turn her weapon on Negan, take Daryl, and run but she hasn't seen him in days. Isn't even sure he's still alive or in the Sanctuary, can only hope he's escaped. So she bides her time and waits. Then she sees it, a tiny chink in the armor he'd so carefully created. It's in his posture as he walks through the Sanctuary, in the tone he uses when speaking to his wives, and grin on his face when they fall into him. It's in his eyes when she says the word family. Negan is lonely. He has nothing but the community he's built off the backs of others. He's alone. She decides she'll become the one thing he thinks he has. She'll get close and she'll take him down, from the inside. Her plan comes to a halt when she feels it, that tiny flicker of empathy that sends her pushing him back to arm's length. The last thing she needs is to let him get too close and compromise her mission. But the feeling was persistent, wriggling its way into their every interaction and then she realized, she cared about him. And caring about the monster, Negan Smith? That was a fate worse than death.

Surviving was never easy, but with Sid, she had a reason to try. Now he's gone, and Amara is left drowning in solitude, haunted by a hunger she refuses to indulge. Starving herself. Burying her instincts. Fighting against the monster she was made to be: A Vampire. But the world doesn't care if she suffers. The world doesn't care if she's alone. Then, she sees it-the explosion at Terminus, fire licking at the sky. In the chaos, she catches a glimpse of them. Rick Grimes' group. Survivors. Fighters. People. For the first time in years, she follows. Tracks them to Alexandria. She tells herself it's just for supplies. A place to rest. But the truth is, she's desperate. She's tired of surviving. She wants to belong. Now, weeks into life inside the walls, she's struggling to find her place. To them, she's just another survivor. A stranger. But she knows the truth can't stay buried forever. Trust is fragile, and hunger is relentless. And Daryl Dixon? He doesn't trust easily. And there's something about Amara that doesn't sit right with him. But the more he watches her, the more he starts to wonder- Is she the real threat? Or is she just as lost as the rest of them? - Daryl Dixon X Female OC Content Warning: This story is rated Mature and contains graphic depictions of all kinds, including regular Walking-Dead-type violence, death, blood, possible mental health issues, and explicit adult content.
