Summary
Daryl-
I’ve spent most of my life surviving instead of living. I work the grill at Martha’s diner, keep my head down, and hide what’s left of my heart behind a sharp mouth and a bad temper. I know better than to love anybody, especially the straight cop whose mistake nearly got me beat to death.Rick-
I’m a King County detective trying to hold together a difficult job, a complicated marriage, and a life that has not turned out the way I planned. After a failure on the job put a guarded, stoic man in the hospital, I started seeking him out for reasons even I didn’t fully understand. After nearly a year, he finally started to let me in.This is the second in the King County Hearts series. It continues the brief interactions between Rick and Daryl in the first story, Protect and Serve. I recommend reading Protect and Serve first to establish the tentative friendship between Rick and Daryl and to become familiar with Shane and Emily. It can be read as a standalone, but some references will be unfamiliar.
Their relationship here begins as a close acquaintanceship but no established intimacy or romance.

Summary
Shane Walsh was supposed to be the love of my life. But who finds the love of their life in middle school and starts a successful marriage at seventeen? Certainly not someone like me, who craved adventure and danger and a life on the wrong side of the law. Seven years after I left him behind to return to Atlanta, all I wanted from Shane now was for him to sign the divorce papers so I could see what might happen with the interesting, intoxicating, infuriating Daryl Dixon. Which was the only reason I was in King County hospital when the world ended and the dead rose.
And things only got weirder from there. My cop not-really-ex husband, my current maybe boyfriend, and me- street racer, car thief, card hustler, and gang member- at the end of the world- what could possibly go wrong, right?

Summary
“I know that look in her eyes, Mary. I saw it a long time ago. It’s a look I’m all too familiar with.”
When Junior Deputy Malcom Rook entered the Henbane River with a mission to eliminate the siren. He believed she’d be easy to kill. Ready to take down another Herald and bring the county one step closer to freedom. He was never prepared for the fact that he and Faith Seed were more alike than he’d ever cared to admit.
In the hazy confusion of a Paradise Lost, Malcom makes the split-second decision to pull Faith from the water instead of letting her fade. Bringing the now unconscious herald of the Henbane to Dutch’s bunker. Within its walls — Faith slowly begins to unravel as she suffers withdrawal, amplified by the hard truth of Joseph’s abandonment.
As she confronts the truth, all Faith can do is look to the man who saved her for comfort. Though that comfort turns into something more.

The average person can hold their breath from 30-90 seconds.

She thought she drowned? How the hell was she on the top of a building? Is that a fucking zombie?

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
"Oh," Daryl said softly, "You're a junior."
"Yeah," He nodded, "Why do you hate me so much?"
"It ain't hate. It's envy. I thought you had everything I wanted. College. Friends. Up 'til now, I thought you had a good family," He paused for a second, "And you haven't exactly been secretive about your sexuality."

Summary
It's been written before, chapter and verse.
They die, except ... they don't. They don't know how, or why (or what the fuck), and there's a clock hanging over their heads, ticking closer and closer to the end of the whole damn world, but they get a second chance. They fucking take it.

Summary
Dr. Maya Thomas was taking a break from the whole world. Too bad the world decided not to give her a break.
Long before the world ended, she was left heartbroken by the one person she thought was the only steady thing in her life. Years later, she hadn't learned her lesson because again she trusted someone who led her to a nervous breakdown and several people's deaths.
Now, the dead walk, the living kill, and trust has become as rare as clean water. She thought the dead would be the most dangerous thing she would ever come across. As usual, the universe laughed at her and proved her wrong.
In this new world where trust is a liability and hope can get you killed, Maya worries every day about how she can keep herself safe. Because she has to, if not for the world then for the little boy she found, who had become the only one she could trust. Mostly because he can't even talk yet.
