Welcome to my very first attempt at writing my own story.

My special thanks go to my dear friend WheresMyPenn (aka scriptor412) who agreed to be my beta for this story although she usually doesn't like AU stories.

New cover was made by wendythestoryteller thank you :)

Another big thank you goes to helloitsmeabby_ (aka postergirljulie) for the grammar mistakes hunt. It was needed!

"My" OC in this story is based on a character from Dexter, but the name and the appearance are the only similarities. Her backstory isn't the same, at all.

I don't own Daryl, Merle, or any other recognizable characters.

The story is rated 'Mature' for a good reason, meaning violence, language, and adult situations! Only 18+, please.

Enjoy!
