Being a woman in the West was never easy. Winifred Magnus lived a life that many women faced; forced into a loveless marriage and pressed under the thumb of a man. The deep mountain life took away the cruel man who'd been Winifred's husband, leaving her to fend for herself in harsh winter climate. As the ground began to thaw, as did the threat of wealthy men looking to take her land or her life. Arthur Morgan stumbled upon the fearful woman one winter night while hiding from his outlaw life. The magnet of a woman kept drawing him near, despite the danger of her in his life. As Arthur opened up the possibilities of another life, Winifred found herself forced into deciding what kind of life she'd want to live: Hide away from the cruel men of her past and make something of herself in the city, or follow Arthur into his life of deceit and danger.

Robin Mae Hudson has lived her whole life in a town as far west as a soul can ride in the state of New Austin. Her world is small and honest, shaped by hard work, the loss of her father, and a mother who leans on her more each passing season. She didn't ask for more. But the frontier has a way of shifting under a person, anyhow. One April, men clad in black and green ride through town, bringing with them a strangeness like wind blown from a state Robin's feet have never known. A wind that forces a woman from the only life she has ever led. All because of her sharp eye and sharper mind; strengths that grow dangerous once the wrong hands decide they want use of them. But useful, once saved by the right. [Arthur Morgan x OC] [Pre-RDR2] [RDR2] [SLOWBURN!]

"They say you fall in love three times in your life," you said finally. Your voice was quiet, but it did not shake. "You ever heard that?" Arthur huffed a breath. "Can't say I have." "The first is young and foolish. That kind that feels like the whole world, because you do not know how big the world really is yet. Everything is bright and easy, and you think every ache is the worst one you will ever feel." "The second is fierce," you said. "All joy and heartbreak tangled together. The fire, you know? The kind that burns hot enough to light up everything in you you did not know you had." Arthur looked up at you then. His eyes were soft and wrecked at the same time. "The third," you said, "is deep. Unshakable. It is the one that never burns out. It might glow softer. It might hurt different. But it is the one that does not go away when the firewood runs low." "I have met you three times in my life, Arthur Morgan," you said. "And every single time, you have made me fall in love with you all over again. You're the only way I know how to love." You sat down beside him, close enough that your thighs brushed. You did not look at him yet. You looked at your hands. "That third kind is the one you are supposed to build your life on," you said. "The one you are supposed to protect. Not keep throwin' into fires to see if it survives." You finally met his eyes. "Do not make me fall for you a fourth time, Arthur."

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.
