In a world overrun by the dead, the living can be far more dangerous.
She's carved out a fragile existence under the rule of a ruthless leader - a place where survival means submission. But when a defiant prisoner arrives, his spirit unbroken despite the horrors he's endured, she's forced to confront the chains she's wrapped around herself.
The world outside is no kinder. Walkers roam the wasteland, and every step beyond the Sanctuary's walls is a gamble. Yet the thought of freedom lingers, gnawing at her. And as the man who refuses to kneel continues to fight, she's left with a choice - betray the fragile security she clings to, or risk everything for the chance at something more.
But rebellion comes at a cost, and in a world without mercy, love might be the most dangerous risk of all.
(Daryl Dixon x Original Female Character)

OFC is my own, as are some of the plot lines in this story.

TWD: Survival's Edge ➳ Daryl Dixon (discontinued/rarely posting)
"𝙃𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙣'𝙩 𝙗𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚. 𝙎𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙝𝙞𝙢 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙬𝙖𝙮." = this is a partial slow burn = The world has fallen apart, leaving only the ruthless, and the desperate to fight for what's left. In a world overrun by the dead, survival isn't just about skill-it's about trust. Amara Hangings and her best friend, Henry have relied on each other to make it this far. Whenever they are captured by a group, they cross paths with a stuck-up, crossbow prick named Daryl Dixon. Henry sees danger in Daryl. Amara sees something else. As they fight through this new world, an uneasy trust begins to form. But in a world where attachments are a risk, letting someone in could be the most dangerous choice of all. For Daryl, survival has always been black and white-until Amara proves that sometimes, the gray areas are worth the risk. ------------ This roughly takes place in the beginning of TWD. I changed the plot a bit to fit in more Amara x Daryl and to make more of a new plot while keeping the basics of the TWD season 1 plot. In this Daryl is late 20's- early 30's. I tried to keep in the character of Daryl Dixon as shown in TWD and what they have said in interviews. Enjoy! I DID NOT MAKE THIS CONCEPT. THIS IS A FANFIC FOR THE WALKING DEAD Hey, sorry this is discontinued. My love for walking dead and just Norman Reedus/Daryl Dixon has burned out. I'm so sorry, I truly enjoyed this and who knows- I might come back for some more chapters but for right now I'm focusing on senior year <3 best ranks: #72 in Dystopian #74 in Gory

FALLEN ANGEL ➵ DARYL DIXON [1] ✓
➷ COMPLETED ➷ fallen angel n; an angel who has been cast out of Heaven for rebellion and deemed to wonder alone. ✘✘✘ ❝𝐘𝐞𝐬, 𝐈'𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧. 𝐈𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐦𝐞.❞ Daryl Dixon had a terrible upbringing. From his alcoholic and abusive father to his always absent older brother due to military. He was always the outcast, a lone wolf if you will. But when he meets Kendra Kelly, the millionaires that live upon a hill on a mansion, he begins to see the beauty in someone and slowly falls madly in love with her. To her heavily made up face, to her sweet laugh, Kendra Kelly is easy on the eyes. So when Daryl asks her to move in, her mother, a woman who loves and takes pride in her image (especially money), is furious, hating Daryl because he has no money for their daughter. Yet when the zombie apocalypse hits, after they have long broken up due to this, the first person he thinks of is his first ever love, Kendra. They eventually find each other, Kendra being in a group with her new boyfriend, Markus Hay. They have no choice but to put old feelings aside, survival the main focus. Follow along with these two poignant characters (Daryl Dixon and Kendra Kelly) that are, undoubtably, the antithesis of one another. The saying goes, "opposites attract." But how long will this actually remain true? Especially when the only world they've known has gone to shit... Buckle up for some extreme mayhem. *Warning* This story includes strong language, sexual scenes, violence and triggering topics.

Borrowed Time | Daryl Dixon [Book 1]
Status: Complete [Book One] [Slowburn] [S3-S4] Vicki could not explain what exactly she meant to Daryl Dixon, but it did not go unnoticed that he gravitated towards her. Always in her orbit and never too far away. Hershel's words about Glenn and Maggie echoed in her mind from days earlier, "Honey, you'd be surprised how unexpectedly love can creep up on ya'...even in the darkest of times." Vicki was on the run from a bad man when sheer luck had her running into Daryl and his people. They end up saving her life and bringing her back to the prison with them. Not only will she encounter a familar friend within their group, but she's also faced with the undeniable chemistry that starts to form with none other than Daryl Dixon. Events that no one saw coming leads the group straight to heartbreak and war. The foundation Rick and his people built in the prison shatters and everything is put on the line. Including their lives. In this harrowing time, Vicki learns that sometimes home is not a place, but a person. I do not own any of AMC's The Walking Dead characters or plots, or locations. However, everything else is mine.

infection | D. Dixon
Romance should be the last thing on her mind once the world ended- and it was... until she met Daryl Dixon. While trying to adapt to the way the new world had changed her, it seems as though he was the only one standing by her side. The dead aren't the only thing she has to fear when the thing she loves the most is ripped away from her, and she must face being completely and utterly alone in a world full of the dead. AN: I wrote this when I was 15, please be gentle I've improved greatly since then Edit; thank you for 40K+ views!Complete

Dead bodies walked the Earth, and the living had two options; band together and live, or turn on one another, and die. Tori makes friends (and enemies) within the group she finds herself a part of. One man stands out as the most irritating, yet the one who also has the biggest heart of all of them. They drive each other crazy, but craziness is to be expected at the end of the world. She battles the harsh realities of the new world, as well as the internal struggle that continues to cripple her mind and body alike. *** [Daryl Dixon x OC] [Sexual Content] [TWD - Season 1-11] [Started 6/7/2023] [Finished ???]
