No Zombies. Daryl/OC. Glenn's friend from College Zoey who is now his roommate having got tired of life in the city covers for Glenn one night on his pizza delivery shift so he could finally take Maggie out. Daryl opens the door expecting the chinaman when he's greeted with the sight of a stunning women with long flaming red hair, red lips and bright green eyes. Merle is shocked that Daryl actually found a chick he's attracted to sober and when they run into her again at the bar Zoey realizes if she wants Daryl she'll have to take the lead and that's fine with her. Mature content. Don't own anything.
"Damn short rounds late tonight." Merle grouched from the couch as they waited for their delivery. Merle had the munchies and was getting cranky and Daryl just rolled his eyes at the idiot. When the door bell rang Daryl hopped off the chair and yanked the door open.
"Bout time short round." He said counting out the money. He heard a chuckle that was not Glenn's and snapped his head up and was then speechless.
Standing there was a girl with flaming red hair that was clearly died and red lips to match. She had on jeans and a black top, leather jacket and the pizza places hat on her head. She was shorter than him but her body was stacked and she was smirking at him with her plump red lips and all Daryl could think about was seeing them around his dick.
"You call Glenn Short round?" She said with a snort and Daryl shook himself out of his staring and took the pizza from her and turned to hand it to his brother who was gapping at him and her.
"Yeah. Sorry. Thought you was the chinaman." Daryl said and she nodded.
"He's Korean actually but it's cool." She told him.
"Where's the Korean anyways?" he ask her and she snorted.
"He finally got the balls to ask this girl named Maggie out and being the good room mate and friend I am I agreed to take his shift so he didn't get fired. Hell, not like I had shit to do and extra money is always nice." She said and he nodded.
"That's 29.06." she said and he nodded and handed her 40.00. She reached into her back pocket for change for Daryl waved her off.
"Keep it." she told her. She ran her green eyes up his body before looking at his face and smiled. Was she checking him out?
"You always tip Glenn this good?' she said smirking again and then her tongue came out and licked her lips and Daryl damn near groaned. She had a tongue ring.
"No. But he doesn't look as good standing on my porch as you do." Daryl told her and he heard his brother chocked on his pizza hearing Daryl actually flirt with a women. He never did that and even Daryl didn't know where that came from. The girl's lips turned up in the corner into an amused smile and she checked him out again. He was cute, with long dark hair that most people would probably think needed to be cut but she liked it. He was wearing dirty jeans from work, a sleeveless button down shirt and a leather vest. He screamed redneck but to Zoey he screamed man. She could also tell he was shy and the flirting was new for him. Chuckling she pocketed the money and took the hat off her head and ran her fingers through her long red hair she knew stood out and smirked back at him.
"Is that so? Well, I look better naked. Just saying." She teased before waving bye and walking back to Glenn's car she borrowed for the night, leaving the cute redneck standing there gapping in shock at her, wondering what she would look like naked.
A few nights later Daryl and Merle were standing in the normal bar waiting for Merle's turn to try and win his rent money back from Joe and his little group of pricks when they saw several of the men in the area turn and stare towards the bar. Lenny one of the nasty assholes that hung around Joe whistled.
"Damn. There's a horse of a different color for sure. Dibs on that." He said to his friends. Merle and Daryl looked over and Daryl damn near fell out of the stool he was sitting on.
Standing at the bar with who they knew was Maggie Greene who was wrapped in the arms of their pizza boy Glenn was the red headed vixen herself. She looked even better than Daryl remembered. She had on black leather pants a backless bright red top that made her flaming red hair and lips stand out more. They were talking to the owner's of the bar Tyreese and Carol and laughing and joking.
"Claimed." Daryl heard Joe's guy Lenny say and Daryl gripped the neck of his beer bottle as he watched Lenny strut over towards the girl that Daryl had been dreaming about since they met. He didn't even know her name but damn if she hadn't got under his skin.
He watched as Lenny smugly interrupted their conversation and Tyreese stood on attention. He knew Ty and Carol didn't really like these guys and always kept an eye on them.
Lenny bent forward and whispered something in her ear. Her smile turned into a frown and she pushed him back some and shook her head before turning her back to him and resuming her talk. Daryl and Merle snorted at the clear fuck off she just sent him but the prick didn't care and grabbed her ass. Merle had to hold Daryl by the shoulder to stop him from getting involved but it wasn't needed.
Maggie and Glenn who has seen it gasp in outrage but the women turned around and punch Lenny in the face, knocking him to the ground as he held his nose and screamed.
"Bitch." He spat and Daryl's eye brows rose to new heights when she pulled a knife from her boot and bent down to say something to Lenny. Lenny nodded, glaring as Joe made his way over.
"Now, now. Let's everyone calm down." Joe said when he saw Tyreese move around the bar and haul Lenny off the floor.
"Got your boy out of here or your all gone." Ty said and Joe nodded with a smile on his face and mentioned for two of his other idiots to carry Lenny out.
"Don't worry doll face. Well teach him a good lesson." Joe said to her and he reached forward to touch her face but she jerked back and held her knife towards him. Holding his hands in surrender he smiled at them and walked back over towards the pool tables to finish his current game.
"Damn. She fucked his ass up." Merle chuckled and Daryl nodded and watched as she put her knife back and brushed her long hair back over her shoulder before turning back towards her friends and talking like nothing happened. Damn she was bad ass.
"Ready to lose more money Dixon?" Joe ask and Merle scowled. He needed to win his money back but he didn't think he'd ever beat Joe at pool. Joe was a hustler and hustled money out of everyone in town but Merle refused to back down.
"By in is 1000. Think ya can swing it." Joe said chuckling and Merle looked down at the 500 in his hand and turned towards Daryl who shook his head. He didn't have that much on him.
"Guess you can't play then." Joe said and Daryl knew he'd lose his temper before long.
"I'll put up the other half. Actually I'll double it and play for him. If you think you can swing it?" they heard and turned to see the red head walking up and eyeing Joe like she meant business. Joe looked her over and smirked.
"You're on. But if you lose Merle has to hand over not only his money but his bike and no more rematches." Joe said and the girl nodded before tossing 1000 down on the table and grabbing the 500 out of Merle's hand and tossing it down as well. Merle went to stop her because he didn't want to lose his money and his bike but Glenn walked over and stopped him.
"Trust her guys. She's never lost before." Glenn said and Merle sighed but gave a nod and handed her his bike keys and she tossed them down too.
"Deal. Was that you're Harley I saw out front Mr?" she said and Joe nodded.
"It's Joe sexy and yeah that's mine." He said and the red head turned towards Daryl and smirked at him.
"Got a bike yet hot stuff?" she ask and he shook his head no.
"When you lose we not only get the money but your bike with no retribution or rematches against them." she said and paused. Daryl thought he'd back down but his cockiness got the better of him and everyone gasp as he tossed down the money and the keys.
"Let's play." He said and she nodded before walking over and picking out her cue stick before walking over and standing at the end of the table. Ty came over and gathered all the money and keys to hold so no one cheated and gave a nod for them to begin.
"Ladies first." Joe said and the red head shook her head.
"No by all means Mr. Joe. Show me how's it done." She taunted and Joe smirked before blowing her a kiss and bending down to break. Daryl turned when he heard Glenn chuckled and raised a brow at him.
"What's so funny short round?" Daryl ask him and he smirked as he handed Maggie her beer and sat on the stool next to them.
"Zoey's about to kick his ass man and your gonna get a new bike." Glenn said and Daryl shared a look with Merle before watching the game.
Joe was a damn good player and was able to sink over half his striped balls after breaking. Zoey never moved though. Just stood there and watched, calculating. When he missed his shot he stood and chuckled.
"Guess you'll get to play after all, doll." He said and she smirked. She walked around the table once before turning and throwing Daryl a wink and he shifted from where he sat on the stool. When she bent forward he's eyes immediately went to her ass as she made her first shot.
They watched in shock and amusement as she ran the table. Joe never getting another chance to play. When she sank the 8 ball Merle hollered and cheered from where he stood next to Daryl.
Daryl saw Joe was pissed and when Zoey went to get the money and keys from Ty he grabbed her arm.
"You hustled me." he snapped and Zoey smirked and pulled her hand back.
"Yep. Just like I watched you hustle the last person. That's the name of the game pal. Get over it." she told him before walking forward and tossing Merle his bike keys.
"Damn sugar I could kiss ya right now." Merle told her as she handed him all the money except the 1000 she put in. She chuckled and handed Daryl the keys to his new bike. He took them with a smirk.
"My names Zoey." She said and he nodded.
"Merle Dixon and this is my brother Daryl." Merle said and Daryl could tell she had won Merle over already.
"I know. Glenn told me who you were. Nice to see you again." She said looking at Daryl and he gave a nod.
"How about a ride home on your new bike?" Zoey ask as the crowd finally started to die back down and Ty had to escort Joe and his gang out after that. Daryl swallowed hard but nodded. He paid his tab and watched as Zoey whispered something to Glenn who nodded as she grabbed her leather jacket and headed for the door with Daryl right behind her.
"I can't believe this is mine." Daryl said as he straddled the bike and held his hand for her to get on. Chuckling she slid on behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. He shivered as her voice drifted over his ear as she told him her address to her and Glenn's apartment.
Cranking up the bike he smirked to himself as it started right up and vibrated between their legs as he backed it out of the parking spot and sped off down the road.
"Come on in. I'll fix ya a drink." Zoey said once they got to her place and she climbed off the back. Nodding he shut off the engine and followed the sexy red head up the stairs, watching her ass the whole time until she stopped and unlocked the door and let them inside, locking it behind her.
"Want a beer?" she ask and he nodded following her into the kitchen as he looked around the place. It was not what he expected. You couldn't tell a guy and girl shared this place, it looked like a complete nerds bachelor pad.
"Nice décor." He snorted as he saw the star wars posted hanging in the living room and Zoey laughed as she handed him a beer taking one her herself and sitting on the sofa, Daryl followed.
"Yeah. Glenn did all this on his own. I moved in a few months ago. Got tired of the city and he offered me his spare room." She said and Daryl nodded.
"How did you two become friends. You seem like two different people." He ask and she chuckled.
"Actually we are two different people. We met in College in Atlanta. We were both IT major's believe it or not. I sat next to him in class for months without even noticing him there. Then one night there was this big frat party and I was on a date with one of the boys in the frat, big mistake by the way. Anyways, Glenn and a few of his friends had been invited as a joke and they planned to prank the "IT nerds." I heard my date and his buddies planning it and I got pissed off. Kicked both there asses and got Glenn and his friends out of there before anything could happen. After that they followed me around like some kind of warrior princess or something but they were good guys. None were my type but when I lost my grant for housing because of the fight Glenn offered to let me move in with him and we've been friends since. He moved here when we graduated and I stayed in the city for a while but decided it wasn't for me and called up Glenn." She told him and he nodded and chuckled at the thought of her beating up men for short round.
"What about you and Merle? Lived here long?" she ask and he grunted.
"Our whole life pretty much. Moved out as soon as we could cause our dad was a bastard. Merle was in and out of jail for a while messed up on drugs. He's better now and we got jobs in town at the auto shop. That's about it for us." Daryl said and she nodded and Daryl could feel her eyes burning into him as he finished his beer and sat it on the table.
Before he could open his mouth and say anything else she was on him. Straddling his lap and her tongue in his mouth. Daryl groaned as he kissed her back. He wasn't no virgin but the few drunken one night stands he had were nothing compared to how hot this girl was making him with just this kiss and the way she fit perfectly in his lap.
Pulling back when they needed air Daryl panted as he stared up at her as she panted above him.
"I like you a lot Daryl but I don't do one night stands. I like more than that with you if you want to give it a try." She said and he nodded before leaning forward shyly for another kiss. Smiling at him she kissed him quickly before standing and yanking him up and pulling him down the hall and into a room that looked more like a girl lived in it.
Daryl didn't have much time to look around as he was shoved against the now closed door and Zoey was back on him again kissing and biting at his neck.
Daryl never knew how turned on he'd get by a dominating women but damn if he wasn't harder than he could ever remember being as she tugged on his vest dropping it to the floor and quickly un doing his shirt. Normally he never took his shirt off but she didn't seem to be bothered by the scars. She just kissed them and moved lower and Daryl cursed loudly when she dropped to her knees in front of him and went of his belt.
"shit." He hissed as his pants and shoes and socks hit the ground next and she was running her nails up his thighs harshly causing him to panted and gasp for air.
She kissed and licked his stomach as she took off her leather jacket before his boxers were gone and he was standing naked with her fully clothed.
When she took him all the way down her throat in one go he slammed his head back against the door and moaned her name. She worked him over for a moment until he was about to cum and then she pulled back and stood.
"On the bed." She demanded as she stared at him with a hungry look and he swallowed.
"Yes ma'am." He replied instantly and laid down on her bed and stared up at her and she started to strip. With every inch of skin that was revealed he grew impossibly harder until she was naked, tattoos showing on different parts of her body along with a few other piercing and he wanted to marry her right then. She was perfect.
Crawling back up towards him she kissed him again before whispering in his ear.
"I want you to taste me. Are you up with that?" she ask and he nodded quickly, he wanted that a lot even if he never did that before he wanted to do it now. Using his strength he hoisted her up and sat her over his face as he buried himself between her legs and feasted like a starved man.
She screamed his name as she climaxed quickly and Daryl felt damn proud of himself for being able to bring his girl that much pleasure. His girl. He liked the sound of that.
Once she came down from her high she reached forward and grabbed a condom and handed it to him and he quickly had it on and before he could move her she was already straddling him and slamming herself down.
"Fuck." He hissed as he gripped her hips to still her so he could get himself under control.
Once he loosened his hold she rode him like a freaking pro and he was amazed at how quick it took them both to reach the end before they passed out in her bed tangled together and exhausted.
Daryl woke the next morning and he panic at first. There was a heavy weight on his chest and he couldn't breathe well. Opening his eyes he saw the weight was Zoey and her hair was in his face causing him to not breathe well. Smirking he thought back on last night at how his wild cat and damn near attacked him and he loved every damn minute of it and realized he wanted her to do that again and again for the rest of his days.
Slowly he moved her off him some and looked over at the clock. It was after 9 am and he knew his brother was probably looking for him but there was no way he was leaving right now. Standing he went to her bathroom and chuckled. His chest, neck and legs were littered with marks and hickeys and some were alittle sore but he didn't give two shits.
Once he was done he walked back to her room and she was sitting up in the bed looking him over with a smirk on her face.
"Looks like I worked you over pretty hard last night." She said and he nodded as he slid back into bed next to her.
"Yep." He replied and she bent forward to kiss a bite mark on his chest.
"Are you mad?" she ask and he snorted.
"Hell no. Didn't hear my ass complain last night did ya?" he replied and she smiled before crawling over him and standing up and lighting a cigarette and handing it to him to hit.
"Wanna shower with me?" she ask with a devious look in place and he damn near ran after her into the bathroom.
"Where the hell where you all night and morning and what happened to your neck?" Merle ask when he entered their place a few hours later. Smirking Daryl moved to the side as Zoey walked in.
"I happened to his neck, that a problem?" she ask crossing her arms and Merle busted out laughing.
"Hell no sugar. Your more than welcome to use my little brother anytime you like and by the smile on his face I'd say he must have liked it." Merle said and Daryl flipped him the bird.
"Oh yeah. He loved it every time." Zoey shot back and Merle fell off the bar stool he was sitting on laughing so damn hard and Daryl was feeling so good that he didn't even care he was being laughed at.
"So, How's the new bike working out for ya?" Merle ask when Zoey went to the bathroom and Merle was able to talk with Daryl.
"Good. Everything's good." Daryl told him and Merle nodded.
"She your girl now?" Merle ask and Daryl nodded.
"Yep." Was all he needed to say. Merle knew Daryl had found the one girl that would be his world and Merle was happy for him.
"Heard Joe wasn't happy about your girl hustling him last night." Merle told Daryl and Daryl nodded.
"I didn't think he would be but he agreed to no retribution." Daryl said and Merle gave him a serious look.
"He agreed to no retribution on us. She never said anything about herself. Keep an eye on her Daryl. Joe's gang is not known for kindness." Merle told him and Daryl felt the bottom drop out of his stomach. He had to keep her safe.
"So where do you work?" Daryl ask her later that night as they laid in his bed at his place. They had spent the day shooting the shit with Merle and just hanging out.
"Oh Glenn and I are opening a computer repair shop in town. We closed on the building yesterday that's why we were at the bar celebrating. Tomorrow were going over to start getting it ready to open." She told him and he nodded, impressed.
"We need to find a contractor or handy man or something to do some of the renovation for us. Know anyone good?" she ask and he nodded.
"Yeah, me and Merle. We do that on the side. Can help yall out if ya want." He said and she nodded before snuggling up against him and running her nails down his chest causing him to groan.
The next day Daryl dropped her off at the building she was meeting Glenn at and promised to stop by after he got off so he and Merle could see what they would need done and how much it was going to cost.
Things were going great for the first time in Daryl's life. He had a job at the shop with his brother that made decent money; work on the side and Glenn and Zoeys new shop and a great girlfriend that drove him wild with just one look. Merle was staying clean other than the occasionally pot and they hadn't heard a word from Joe and his gang and it had been 3 weeks since that night.
Daryl watched as Glenn and Zoey help him and Merle finish up the last coat of paint on their walls of the shop. They made sure to help 100% so Merle and Daryl didn't have to do it alone. Daryl caught himself smiling as he watched her. He knew without a doubt that he was in love with her. Knew it from that first night but he didn't want to say anything, afraid she would think it was too soon or that she didn't feel the same.
They had been doing great. She treated him real good and even seem to enjoy being around Merle and never once tried to change either of them. He had finally confessed to her all about his past and his father and all she did was hug him and told him none of that matter to her. She was here to stay.
And let's not forget that he'd never in his life crazed sex the way he did with her. The things she did to him and made him feel. It was out of this world.
"Will you stop mooning over your girl and help me finish this damn wall." Merle grouched and Daryl jump as he was caught staring at Zoey and flipped his brother the bird as he got back to work. Merle just shook his head at his brother. Boy had it bad.
"Were finally done with the paint. The furniture is coming tomorrow." Zoey told them as she brought out drinks for them after they finished cleaning up all the paint and were standing around admiring their work.
"Looks good." Daryl told her and she smiled at him. It did look good.
Zoey. Sorry I'll be late today. Maggie wants to meet for breakfast and take me to meet her dad. I'll be there after that to help set up the furniture. Maggie's sister Beth is going to stop by with the decorations. Glenn
Zoey groaned as she got the text from Glenn right after she arrived at the shop. She didn't like being there alone but she didn't have a choice. Daryl and Merle were working today until noon and Glenn was making nice with his girlfriends old man. Looks like she'd be working alone this morning.
Daryl's whole world came to a halt when he and Merle got a frantic call from Glenn just as they were heading over towards the shop. He hadn't heard from Zoey all day and now he finds out Glenn had not showed up for help her this morning and something bad had happened was all he got out of the crying chinaman when he call so Merle and Daryl raced down the street on their bikes towards the town.
When they arrived there were cops everywhere.
"What happened?" Daryl demanded to Glenn as he and Merle walked inside. The place was trashed, windows busted open and blood everywhere.
"And you are?" the cop ask Daryl when he walked inside past the crime scene tape. Where was Zoey?
"This is Zoey's boyfriend Daryl and his brother Merle. They just got off work. They've been helping up paint and get the place ready." Glenn told them cop who nodded and turned towards Daryl.
"My names Rick Grimes I'm the sheriff of this town. We got a call from Glenn when he arrived to find the place like this. From what we can tell your girlfriend may have been attacked and either fled to safety or was taken." Rick told him and Merle had to caught Daryl as his knees went week. She was gone.
"No." Daryl whispered as he sagged against Merle. His chest tightened and he couldn't breathe.
"Daryl. All they found was this and a trail of blood leading out the back door." Glenn said handing them a piece of paper with one word that explained it all. "Claimed."
"Son of a bitch." Merle hissed when he saw it and Rick raised a brow at the man.
"We know who did this. Joe's gang. I'm sure you've heard of them." Merle said and Rick nodded.
"Yeah. Arrested them a few times for varies reasons. What makes you think they did this?" Rick ask and Merle quickly told Rick everything that happened with Joe and Zoey at the bar and how there gang rule was you claim what you want and Merle knew he'd want retribution again Zoey one day for making him look bad. Nodding Rick sighed as he looked around.
Just then Maggie and Hershel showed up running inside and gaps as they looked around.
"Glenn. Where Beth?" Maggie ask and Glenn paled.
"I don't know. She wasn't here when I got here and Zoey's been taken by Joes gang." Glenn told her and Daryl watched as Maggie and Hershel tried to call Beth only to have her phone ring at the back of the store where it has fallen and Rick knew she had been taken too.
"Rick she had Judith with her." Maggie told him and Rick's day went from bad to worse. He didn't know his Ex wife had let Beth to watch Judith today while Lori took Carl to the doctor and now his baby was in danger by the gang he'd been trying to take out for months.
"I need to call Lori. Daryl, I can tell by the look in your eyes you're ready to do whatever it takes to get your girl back am I right?" Rick whispered to him as the other cops cleared out on his orders. Daryl gave Rick a firm nod as red hot anger clouded his vision. He wanted to kill every last one of them to get her back and when Merle gave him a nod he knew his brother would be right there behind them.
"Hershel?" Rick ask his old friend. Hershel looked at the sad face of Maggie and saw the blood all over the floor. Right now he was not the god fairing man of the church he was a father whose child was missing.
"Do whatever you have to Rick. We can all meet at my place to make a plan. It's away from town and anyone that would see or hear anything." Hershel told him and Rick nodded.
An hour later everyone that was involved gathered at Hershel's. Rick had called his Ex wife who showed up with their son Carl and her new husband Shane who was also a cop along with Rick. Rick's girlfriend Michonne came as well along with Daryl, Merle. All gathered in the living room of Hershel and Annette Green as Glenn tried to calm down Maggie.
"What's the plan Rick?" Shane ask getting antsy as Lori continued to cry over the loss of her baby girl.
"Me, Daryl, Merle, Michonne and you will go to where Merle says is there main hangout. If we see any signs of the girls and Judith we take them all out. Anyone that had anything to do with it. I'm done fucking around with these men. They've gone too far now." Rick said and Shane nodded as he reached into his bag and pulled out a couple of guns and ready them to go. Rick handed a few more to Daryl and Merle to add to the Crossbow Daryl bought and the gun Merle always carried. Michonne came packing a Katana and Daryl didn't even ask the women where she got that. She looked ready to cut someone and Daryl didn't want to mess with her.
"Rick. I know we've not gotten along this last year with everything that happened. But you do whatever you have to, to get them back." Lori told Rick who nodded and led the group towards the cars.
Daryl was damn near vibrating with anxiety as they parked the cars a few miles away and made their way on foot towards the old warehouse that Merle knew belong to Joe's gang. Looking inside the window they could see all Joe's men inside standing around talking and drinking.
Michonne who had been walking around the other side whistled for them and they ran over and looked inside the back room. Beth and Judith were huddled in the corner. Beth looked scared and alittle banged up but otherwise ok as she fed the baby to keep her calm. There was a man in the room guarding them as he leered at Beth and she cringed away from his look.
Then Daryl saw Zoey. She was tired up a few feet from Beth. She was bloody and unconscious and Daryl saw red.
Nodding Rick used his knife to pry open the back door and Daryl let his arrow fly at the man that was guarding the girls and he slumped dead to the ground. Beth gasp as she saw everyone coming inside as Rick went over towards her and check out Beth and Judith. Daryl and Merle went to Zoey as Shane and Michonne stood guard at the door.
"Rick. Oh my god. These men came into the store when Judith and I was talking with Zoey. They ambushed us. Zoey fought them all for a while but there were too many. They took us so we wouldn't tell. They threw us in here as soon as we got here. They kept Zoey out there for a while and when they bought her back in here she was unconscious. I heard them say she was going to be entertainment tonight." Beth told them as Rick untied her from the wall and took his baby into his arms for a moment.
Daryl felt sick as he looked Zoey over and Merle help cut her binds.
"Daryl." She whispered and Daryl cupped her bloody cheeks in his hands as he kissed her forehead.
"I'm here baby. I'm gonna get you out after I kill those bastards." He told her and she nodded as she laid back down.
Standing Daryl looked at Merle and then Rick.
"Let's finish this shit." He told him and they nodded as they burst through the door. They took out half the men before they even had a chance to shot back.
After a brief shoot out and only one left was Joe and Daryl walked right up towards him with Merle and they beat him just as bad as he did to Zoey before Daryl ended his life.
Sighing he knew it was over as he carried Zoey back towards the cars as the warehouse burned to the ground behind them, destroying any and all evidence.
The weeks following the kidnapping Zoey slowly healed. All they did was beat her up pretty badly and she was thankful nothing else was done to her. Daryl wouldn't leave her side. He took a leave from work and stayed with her at her apartment and took care of her as she healed. When she was able to return to working on the shop he was right there too and if he wasn't Merle or Glenn was. They were scared they'd lose her again and Merle knew if Daryl lost Zoey then Merle would lose Daryl.
Beth and Judith were ok under the watchful eyes of their family but a month later things were back to normal other than Daryl refusing to go back to work, scared something would happen and Zoey knew she needed to take the reins back so Daryl could relax.
"Daryl. Come here please." She called from his room. He had finally gotten her to move in with him when Glenn told her Maggie was moving into their apartment. She had moved all her stuff in there today and got Merle out of the house for a while as he and Beth had started seeing each other.
Walking back there Daryl was stunned speechless. Zoey was standing in the room naked and had that look back in here eye.
"Strip now." She told her and Daryl nodded as he did what she told him. He like it when she took charge like this.
Pushing him onto the bed she straddled his lap and leaned over him, pressing his hands above his head.
"Now baby. I love you very much and I know you love me." She said and he nodded quickly. He did love her with everything he had.
"I need to get back to normal around here. I'm fine, there dead and I'm not going anywhere. You need to go back to work so I can get back to mine." She said and Daryl open his mouth to argue but she cut him off with a kiss.
"No. I'm telling you that your going back to work in the morning with Merle. I'll let you take me to work and pick me up and you can even come and have lunch with me but I'm fine, I love you, I'm not going anywhere ever and we need to move on." She told him. Staring at her long and hard Daryl sighed and gave her a nod.
"Ok." He told her and she smiled as she proceed to worship him all night, showing him her love and lust for him and he loved every damn second of it. And when he went to work the next day he proudly showed off the bite marks on his neck and he loved the burn of the scratches on his back and he knew she was feeling hers too. Daryl loved his dominating women who had agreed that morning to be his wife and his life was now complete.
