Vicki could not explain what exactly she meant to Daryl Dixon, but it did not go unnoticed that he gravitated towards her. Always in her orbit and never too far away. Hershel's words about Glenn and Maggie echoed in her mind from days earlier, "Honey, you'd be surprised how unexpectedly love can creep up on ya'...even in the darkest of times."

Vicki was on the run from a bad man when sheer luck had her running into Daryl and his people. They end up saving her life and bringing her back to the prison with them. Not only will she encounter a familar friend within their group, but she's also faced with the undeniable chemistry that starts to form with none other than Daryl Dixon. Events that no one saw coming leads the group straight to heartbreak and war. The foundation Rick and his people built in the prison shatters and everything is put on the line. Including their lives. In this harrowing time, Vicki learns that sometimes home is not a place, but a person.

Drisson [DarylDixon} by baylee1245

A split second decision can change your entire life. Will she fight to survive or fight to live?

I'm going to stay true to the characters, but I will also be including some original ideas. The will be some changes to the storyline, whether that be minor or major. For the most part, I will stick to the plot line written by the creators of TWD. The first few chapters will be longer than the others. I wanted to be able to really make sure to give the characters their time. I do not own/have any rights to TWD or the characters, dialog, scenes, etc. *DarylDixon x OC ENJOY!!

Angel by WalkerWitch

Daryl Dixon is completely on his own. After the Saviors burn down Alexandria, he thinks that he is the only survivor. Living without the group that he has come to love, has left him as nothing more than a shell of the man he used to be. One day after a brutal fight, he stumbles upon a run-down shack in the woods. As he lay dying on the dirty floor, his life is saved by a complete stranger. These two loners find that living life together is so much better than doing it alone. I haven't written a story in the first person since Broken. It's not as easy as it sounds, but I enjoyed the challenge. This story has taken me months to write and I finished it just days after the Season 8 midseason finale. Any similarities to that episode are pure coincidence. I wrote the chapter (You'll know which one) months before Season8 even started. For anyone that is newly following me or reading my books, I write differently than most. You only start to get chapters once the entire story is written. And it finally is. I hope everyone enjoys Angel.

Once a reckless and volatile man, he has now become a respected and productive member of Alexandria. Most importantly, he has become a loved member of a family drawn together by hardship. When a beautiful new doctor arrives in Alexandria, will he be able to leave his past completely behind and trust that he is worthy of love?

If Daryl falls in love with you, he's going to love you for the rest of his life." Norman Reedus Hey Reedus Readers, This is my first attempt at fan fiction, and I hope y'all enjoy reading it as much as I'm enjoying writing it. It is based primarily on the storyline from AMC's The Walking Dead, and uses the characters and relationships from the show. It begins just before the first battle with the Saviors (the end of season 7 of the show), and assumes the storyline follows Robert Kirkman's comic going forward. If you are not a reader of the comic, there may be some Season 8 spoilers here if the show follows the book closely.

After living in the San Fernando Valley her entire life, Reagan Martinez finds herself in Georgia during the midst of a strange outbreak, where the dead have begun to walk the streets. Reagan always had an easy life. Born to an upper-middle class family in Los Angeles, most things were just handed to her. She had it all, she was attractive, smart, and her parents had enough money to support her for the rest of her life if she really wanted. But that was all stripped away from her once the dead had been resurrected. Now far away from home, in an unfamiliar territory, Reagan must learn to adapt to her new surroundings and protect herself- not just from walkers. Daryl Dixon was the complete opposite. Survival was all he'd ever known, it was a part of his daily life. After suffering from years of abuse, the rise of the dead was Daryl's way out of his personal hell. One life ruined, one saved. Reagan and Daryl didn't get along at first. But as the months passed by, they found themselves putting aside their differences, becoming closer to each other everyday. Reagan needed Daryl, and he needed her. (Daryl Dixon x OC) Seasons 1-9 book 1 of 2 Started: June 8th, 2023 Ended: - I do not own AMCs characters or stories, i only own my OCs

All it would take was a stray bullet and one of them could end up dead, he didn't have time to spare for one of Merle's tantrums- "Ya hear me, boy?" Merle growled, getting right up in Daryl's face with that challenging sneer that the younger Dixon absolutely loathed. He couldn't afford a fight with Merle, his mission was to get them both out of this damned place alive and more-or-less unscathed. But he couldn't do that when his brother was fighting him every step of the way, which left one burning question sitting on his tongue. "Fer fucks sake Merle!
