Negan was never supposed to be her safe place. He's the kind of man people warn you about in low voices-the kind who can make protection feel like possession and call it love with a straight face. But in the ruins, he goes too far to keep Nora Jean fed, sheltered, untouched...and the safety he offers is dangerous because it feels real enough to make her reckless.
Nora Jean tries not to need him. Tries not to want him. Tries-hardest of all-not to love him. Because love isn't gentle. It's desperate and complicated, threaded with guilt and heat, with the kind of attraction that doesn't wait for permission-it just burns.
And when the consequences catch up and the world starts keeping score, they're left with the same questions over and over-one that isn't about miles, but about limits.
How far would you go to protect the person who made you feel safe? How far would you go to save the person everyone thinks deserves to be left behind? And how far can you go...before it changes who you are?

I did as he said, wrapping the loose sheet around my body, he continued to glare as I did so, and I made my way to his side of the bed. He held out a hand, an angry look on his face. "Don't. Just go.

Vampire's Pet
The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets. Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones. Was. It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his. This is my life. I am a pet. ~~~ Cover by: @mshacakeComplete
