All That's Left Of Me
by @xxSpaxeQueenxx
In a world shattered by the dead, Kacey Combs clings to the pieces of her broken heart. Haunted by the loss of her daughter, forced to survive alone, she builds walls around herself that no one can break through-until Negan.
Once the villain she vowed to destroy, Negan becomes the one man willing to fight for the fragile hope she thought was long gone. As Kacey slowly begins to trust again, love blooms where anger once lived. Together they find something worth saving - themselves, each other, and the small, stubborn future growing between them.
But when old demons return and betrayals run deep, survival isn't just about fighting walkers-it's about holding on to the goodness still left inside.
Because sometimes, the most beautiful things are born from the ruins.
And sometimes, the hardest battles are fought with the heart.
A story of loss, redemption, healing, and a love that refuses to die.

Ashes Between Us
In a world where survival is everything, love is the most dangerous risk of all. She was a fighter long before the world ended-but grief changed her. Hardened her. Now, behind the safety of the prison walls, she's barely holding together the pieces of who she used to be. Until Rick Grimes sees through the cracks. He's a leader burdened by loss, desperate to keep everyone alive-especially her. What starts as stolen glances and shared scars soon ignites into something neither of them expected. But in a place where trust is currency and secrets can be deadly, their growing connection becomes a dangerous game. No one can know. Not with threats closing in from every side. Not when the group is already struggling to survive. And especially not when a new enemy is watching from the shadows... waiting to strike. With walkers at their backs and spies beyond the fence, Rick and [Your Name] must decide: is love worth the risk-or will it be the reason everything falls apart? Enemies are coming. The truth is closing in. And the line between love and war has never been thinner. Here is a pinterest board for this story: https://pin.it/5aaZGPObN

Not Made to Rot.
Elena Monroe was supposed to be starting nursing school. Eighteen, driven, grieving-but healing. Her father had passed from leukemia a year earlier, and all she wanted was to make him proud. Then the world ended. She and her mother packed up the car with her little sister Ivy, hoping to escape Georgia and reach the safety of Atlanta. But what started as a desperate plan shattered on the roadside-when her mother suffered a heart attack behind the wheel. With no emergency services, no help, and only a few months of first aid training, Elena was forced to make an impossible choice. She buried the woman who raised her and drove away with a shell-shocked eleven-year-old in the passenger seat. Gridlock stopped them just outside the city. Walkers flooded the highway. And Elena-bleeding, exhausted, and breaking-stumbled across a group of strangers: Shane Walsh. Lori and Carl Grimes. Carol, Sophia, and Ed Peletier. They took her in. Protected her. Called her strong. But Elena never felt strong. Just awake when everyone else was still dreaming. The quarry became a fragile safe haven. Ivy found laughter again. Elena found purpose. But in a world where everyone turns after death, she'll soon learn... she's not like the rest. In a world built on death, what happens to the girl who won't rot?

Daryl drew his crossbow ready to shoot at a moments notice. Willow held her hands up in a sign of surrender. She spoke very calmly to the group of people.

Solitude (Clementine X Male Reader)
You were eight when the dead began their reign. It happened in the blink of an eye, and the world around you was unprepared. The walkers simply ascended their throne made of human bones and flesh and ruled without question. Nothing could be done about them. They're mindless corpses that feel no pain and can survive anything unless their brain is destroyed. Years after it all began, you're alone. Wandering, surviving the best you can, struggling when the past comes back with a vengeance. Starving, wounded, and out of options, a group takes you in and helps you. Fixing your wound, feeding you, providing shelter, everything you could ask for. You don't want to stay, but you have no choice because, outside their walls, the enemy waits. Ready to kill you the second they find you.
