The Scent of Survival

In a world where survival is brutal and secrets are deadly, one mistake sets the stage for a hidden life.

Beta Hershel Greene never meant for it to happen-a drunken night, a nameless face, and a child left on his doorstep. But when the scent revealed the truth, Hershel knew the abandoned baby omega was his. To hide the betrayal from his wife, he built a quiet life in the forest for the boy, raising him in secret through a hired nanny. No one knew the omega existed.

Not even when the world ended.

When the boy's first heat hits during the chaos of the outbreak, a lone alpha-drawn by instinct-steps in to help, staying to protect the isolated omega. But safety is short-lived in the apocalypse. Walkers come, blood spills, and the omega is left alone once again.

Hours after giving birth on his own, the weakened omega is discovered by Daryl Dixon, who's searching for a lost girl-and instead stumbles upon a story far more heartbreaking and dangerous than he expected.

Love. Loss. Secrets. Survival.
In this Omegaverse twist on The Walking Dead, the line between family and betrayal blurs as the scent of survival lingers in the air.
