Summary
When Daryl yells for Beth to go, she stays with shaking hands and burning determination. Together they escape the funeral home side by side—bruised, breathless, and alive. With no plan and nowhere to go the two set off together with nothing but each other and the breath in their lungs. When every safe place burns and every road leads to a dead end - what they have might be the only thing strong enough to survive and keep each other alive.

Summary
The world keeps falling apart as the dead walk it, but having someone warming Daryl's life makes it worth living for more than just the next cig; If Daryl is the outdoor cat, his partner is the indoor dog.
While scavenging the group hears some batshit crazy guy actually singing! Although drawn in by the talkative, affable musician with a bodybuilder's physique straight from the off, Daryl still has a lot of darkness in his past to work through. Daryl struggles to accept who he is, even when he sees himself shine in the sky-blue reflection of his lover's eyes. It takes time, patience, and a hell of a lot of foreplay.
Their family unexpectedly grows when they find a lone feral boy with daggers for eyes. Parenting in the apocalypse is no easy task. Especially not when Merle comes back from the dead, angry at his brother for playing house with a man. Not to mention a new enemy that makes Daryl's skin crawl - his lover's ex.
Enjoy Daryl falling in love against his own reservations and the family they make. Even ol' Unc'ey Merle.

Summary
(Oh, his heart stung. I made you.
And then, wearily rational: I’m going to have to watch you die.)•
Daryl lost his daughter to her grandparents and Virginia two years before the world ended. Usually things stayed like that, gone forever, and second chances never came rolling around. But then she appears right when he's with Joe's group of men. Alive, not dead-- just one more thing he might lose all over again.

Summary
Adeline Dixon's life shattered when the world ended. At just ten years old, she is thrust into a nightmare where the bonds of family and survival blur into one. But when tragedy strikes at the dawn of the apocalypse, she finds herself under the reluctant protection of a uncle she barely knows, Daryl Dixon-a man more accustomed to the isolation of the wild than the responsibility of raising a child.
Together, they must face not only the horrors outside but also the wounds of their shared history, discovering that survival is about more than just outlasting the apocalypse-it's about rebuilding the broken bonds of family.

Summary
Looking at the start of the apocalypse through the bewildered eyes of a child.
From wiggling in his playpen to left alone in a small town trying to survive - one little boy's journey is carved out of love, sadness, morality, and the fragility and persistence of the human spirit. He will learn not just the rules of the new world, but that smiles can be sad, laughs can be mean, and sometimes your indoor voice has to become your outdoor voice.
This is what happened to Dante Dixon-Caruso before his two daddies found him, back when he was still Dante Marchetti.

Summary
-ˏˋ ꜰᴏʀ ʏᴏᴜ, ɪ'ᴅ ꜱᴛᴇᴀʟ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴛᴀʀꜱ.ˊˎ-
Elodie Price had never heard the soft breeze of the wind or the sound of birds singing in the trees.
After losing her older brother and her mother, the world had become grey. Ten years old, and already the universe had stripped her of everything. She couldn't see any reason to keep moving, no one to protect her. The Walkers would find her soon enough. With her hearing loss, she wouldn't even hear them coming. She could barely hear the world screaming around her.
Her mother had always been harsh - never quite satisfied with anything Elodie did - and her brother distant. The little bits of love that trickled through, the faint scraps of affection, always seemed to slip through her fingers like water. She didn't belong. Not to them, not to anyone.
So when she had come to the conclusion that maybe it was her turn to go, she never expected anyone to care. She never expected anyone to save her.
Certainly not someone like Daryl Dixon.
