A Life Worth Living | Daryl's daughter/Carl grimes X OC
33 parts Ongoing Nell has lost everyone she ever loved. She witnessed her little brother getting tore to shreds right in front of her eyes.
And to make things worse, she is alone.
At this point, Nell would prefer to get eaten alive by brain-munchers. There's no point in life if she isn't even living- she's just surviving.
When the last bit of canned food runs out, it forces Nell to leave her house, but she finds herself in some trouble with a brain-muncher and wakes up in a... farmhouse?
Nell knows to never trust anyone, it's what her dad always told her.
Before her dad died, Nell had a very strange relationship with him. He was abusive- both physically and emotionally.
Nell always thought that was normal. It's normal for dads to get angry and lash out. It's normal to be punished for trying to speak... right?
When she meets the group taking shelter at the farmhouse, will she run away?
Is her need for a true family stronger than her loyalty to her abusive father?
Or will a certain guy with a crossbow and a boy in a sheriff hat show her that life is worth living?

Amazing book cover by @tbr_tales !!
Daryl's daughter/Carl's lover/Found family
The story does not completely follow the plot of The Walking Dead. The plot line strays away from the show at times due to Nell's interference.
Tw: Physical abuse, attempted suicide, gore.
I do NOT own any of the walking dead characters except for Nell, Ollie, and a bunch of others that may be in the story that aren't from twd.
