Arrows and Ashes ||Daryl Dixon FF

The world ended, but her hunger to live had only begun.

Lorelay Holloway fled the ruins of a broken life and found shelter on Hershel Greene's quiet farm. A woman hardened by loss, she learned to stitch wounds, break wild horses, and keep her heart locked away. She swore she would never need anyone again.

Then came the strangers-their leader carrying a bleeding boy, their grief heavier than their weapons. Among them stood Daryl Dixon: a man carved from silence, shadows, and scars. He hunts, he fights, he protects-but behind his sharp blue eyes lies a storm Lorelay can't ignore.

In a world where death walks the earth and trust is a luxury, Lorelay finds herself drawn to the one man as untamed as she is. Their connection is a dangerous fire, flickering between raw need and fragile trust. With every stolen glance, every rough word, every brush of calloused fingers, she feels the walls around her begin to crack.

But survival demands sacrifice. Secrets buried on the farm threaten to shatter fragile bonds, and Lorelay must decide: keep her heart locked in the shadows, or risk everything to fall for the wildest soul she's ever known.

Because in this world, love might be the only thing worth dying for
