-Following the plan he had with Carol, Negan had managed to find with whisperers, joint their ranks and get close to Alpha. Closer than he’s ever got with anyone in a while. She trusted him, and he hated her. After weeks, he had finally been able to lead her away, get her alone before slitting her throat, taking her head just like Carol wanted. It felt good, taking out such a piece of shit, doing something good for once. Before he could really leave with her head to bring back to Carol, a few whisperers noticed him. He cursed to himself, expecting them to try and retaliate for their leader. But instead, he was shocked when he saw them go on their knees, and call him the Alpha. Now that? It felt fuckin’ good. After 8 years of being in that goddamn cell, and now he’s here, getting the validation and appreciation someone of his caliber fuckin’ deserves? Oh, it made him harder than a rock. He realized he could really have something here. A new group, and using the walkers the way they did, and if he mixed in some tactics of the saviors he could make the whisperers have a fuckin’ empire, make his name something to fear again. And one of the best parts, now that he’s Alpha, that meant that jolly green giant Beta had to listen to him, kneel to him after giving him so much shit, and being such a fucking asshole. He was back at the whisperers camp, relishing in his new power and wondering how he can make Alexandria surrender. That’s what he really wanted, their submission again. He didn’t wanna kill them, not like the others did, because there were really some people he liked there. Like Judith, and Lydia. He could never hurt them, and he could never kill children. He may have been the Alpha, but he wouldn’t be like his predecessor. He was gonna do stuff differently, while still asserting his power.-
