Under The Eyes of The Wolf (an rdr2 Arthur Morgan x oc story) by reddfoxx29

The van der Linde gang has taken shelter deep in the snowy mountains in an old mining camp known as Colter, following their botched robbery in the town of Blackwater. They are cold, hungry and unsure of what their futures hold. As Arthur Morgan is out desperately trying to track down game to bring back and feed to the starving gang he stumbles across an animal unlike any even he, in all of his travels, has ever seen before. In the process of finding out the unique story behind it he meets a woman. He can't decide if this woman's presence in the same desolate, snow covered wilderness as he and the gang are in is mere coincidence or if there's more behind it than she's letting on. If it is pure coincidence that she's there than what is she doing alone on this frozen mountain? Whatever has brought her into his life he isn't sure but what he does know is he can't get her image out of his mind. Her bright red hair along with her piercing gaze that seems to stare right through him. As he attempts to find out more about her he convinces himself it's strictly out of caution. It's his responsibility to make sure that she's harmless and poses no threat to them but somehow deep down he already knows the only thing she poses a threat to is his heart.

Bad Blood // Micah Bell (Red Dead Redemption 2 Story) by WhisperingHaze

You betray my trust and you think you can come in here and treat me like I'm... like I'm..." She struggled to find the right words to say but Micah scoffed and dropped her hand and stared her directly in the eyes. "You really going to stay mad at me about that? I was drunk!" "You weren't drunk when you stole from me." She retaliated bitterly, wringing out the blood she had gathered from her forehead. "You live in a den of thieves. Thought you'd be used to that." Micah snapped back. "Not when my friend does it Micah!" She exclaimed, throwing the cloth at his chest in anger, her eyes burning with tears as she stared at the man in front of her. "I enjoyed riding with you and just getting to know you. The real you. Not this act of a big, tough and stupid guy. I saw good in you and then you did that." Natasha Fiore is a loyal member of the Van Der Linde Gang. Gun and knife in hand, she is always ready to face everyday as a new challenge but when she is forced to go on a stagecoach robbery with Arthur and Micah, everything turns sour and some unexplainable feelings appear.

Mud and Gold [Arthur Morgan] [RDR2] by catharsxs

➵ ❝Y'know... I ain't a good man.❞ ❝You're good to me, and that's enough.❞ ➵ Arthur Morgan had heard many tales about grand treasures hidden all over the Heartlands, yet he wasn't one to believe in mere rumors as such, most claimed by drunken lowlifes spending their miserable lives in rundown saloons. Until the day the Van der Linde gang saves a farm girl from Colm O'Driscoll's boys, and something more; with a legitimate treasure map in the girl's possession, the chance to earn a great amount of gold arises, and is far too tempting for Dutch van der Linde to turn down. Arthur takes it upon himself to find this secret stash of gold - and it's during this treasure hunt where the outlaw finds out more than he'd bargained for; the gold is not the only secret that has remained hidden for far too long. ➵ Arthur Morgan x Fem!reader ➵ Warning: this story contains foul language, violence, gore and death. ➵ Credits: RDR2/Arthur Morgan belongs to Rockstar Games, I only own my writing. ➵ Cover edited by @catharsxs ➵ IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED RDR2, BE AWARE OF POTENTIAL SPOILERS IN THIS STORY !!
