Gotta say, never once had a man been able to make me go loose like this. Never once had a man make me feel weak at the knees. Until I met Arthur. A simple yet dignified man. I didn't much like being on the run so much but this man had made it seem bearable. ---- Warningggg Swearing Probably some sexual shit This is an OC i made off the top of my head. Her name is Robin Downgreen. Alright read on... ALSO THE COVER IS NOT MINE ALL RIGHTFUL SHIT GOES TO THE RIGHTFUL OWNERS!!!

And finally, through the first snowflakes that started tumbling through the harsh wind, I spotted two silhouettes. Clad in thick winter coats, guns strapped to their backs. Each step filled with grim determination as they waded through the knee-high snow towards us. They stopped a few feet away. The taller man's eyes met mine. He carried himself with silent confidence, evident in the expression on his weathered, undeniably handsome face. Sky-blue eyes framed by thick brows, chapped, full lips, a crooked nose. An association lingered in the back of my head, but I couldn't quite grasp it, until I asked: „Who are you?" {-}-{-}-{-}-{-}-{-}-{-}-{-}-{-} Oh, the hatred that she holds for Dutch van der Linde. While running with the O'Driscolls for over ten years, this man had been the bane of her existence. Now, three years after leaving the gang, she gets lost up in the Grizzlies on the run from the bounty on her head. When she saves one of Van der Linde's men from a wolf attack and gets taken in by them as an ally, she has to face that hatred again. And then there's also Arthur Morgan, Dutch's right hand man, who won't let her forget either that they were enemies once. ❗️Currently undergoing heavy editing❗️ This story is a reader insert, but I avoid uses of (Y/n) as much as I can. Enjoy!

COMPLETE When Arthur met Rosemary at the young age of 25, he was pretty much a goner. It seemed Arthur had a thing for kindly little women. Maybe because deep down all he really wanted was an honest life on a ranch, with a lady he could worship and provide for like a real man should. And in his short time with Rosemary he allowed himself to play make believe that that could ever happen. But like most good things in Arthur's life - that came to a crashing end when Dutch uplifted the gang from that town to move on again. But people from the past always have a way of showing up when you least expect it.

Alexandria Clarke thought her life with the Van Der Linde gang was over when she was kidnapped and presumed dead. But fate has a way of rewriting even the darkest stories. Reunited with the gang years later after they save her friend Sadie Adler, Alexandria seeks a new beginning amidst the familiar faces of her outlaw family. However, the past refuses to stay buried. The reappearance of Arthur Morgan, her former lover and confidante, unleashes a torrent of unspoken emotions. Alongside the steadfast friendship of John Marston, Alexandria must confront her own demons, navigate the complicated dynamics of the gang, and decide if she can truly find redemption and a future worth fighting for in a world that offers few second chances. ** Credits to the Original creators of RDR ** ** May Contain Smut **
