The Last Blood || TWD Fanfic

Juliette Grimes was halfway through her MCAT when the world started ending.

One phone call from home. One sentence from Shane Walsh. Your dad's been shot.

That was all it took for Juliette to abandon Harvard, throw herself into her black Chevy Blazer, and drive 1,080 miles toward King County, Georgia. Toward her mother. Toward Carl. Toward the hospital bed where Rick Grimes was supposed to be waiting.

But by the time Juliette makes it home, the dead are walking, the roads are burning, and the world she knew is already gone.

Three months later, she finds her family alive on a farm that is anything but safe. Rick is trying to hold onto his humanity. Lori is trying to keep her children breathing. Carl is growing up too fast. Shane is unraveling. And Juliette?

Juliette came home with blood under her nails, steel at her hip, a gun her father gave her, and ghosts she refuses to name.

She is not the girl who left for Boston.

She is sharper now. Colder when she has to be. Armed with medical training, a black Blazer full of supplies, a katana, a compound bow, and a survival instinct brutal enough to scare even herself, Juliette will do whatever it takes to keep her family alive.

Walkers are not the only monsters anymore.

And in a world where mercy can look like murder, love can become a weakness, and old rules die faster than the people clinging to them, Juliette Grimes has to decide what kind of woman she is willing to become.

Because Rick Grimes woke up to the apocalypse.

His daughter had to survive it awake.
