Adeline Harris is a woman of many secrets, but what happens when she finds herself at the mercy of The Van Der Linde gang? There is ABSOLUTELY NO way she can tell them who she really is and where she came from. That would put everything she has worked for at risk. But can one cowboy change all that? Can he break through her tough exterior and get to know the real Adeline Harris? Can she break through to him?
Read to find out!
DISCLAIMERS;
This book follows the game as closely as possible (that said there will be spoilers, watch out for those on the warnings at the beginning of the chapter! I will also label what chapter of the game everything takes place in at the top so PAY ATTENTION.)
and I try not to mess with the plot much but I have to in some cases. I do not own ANY of the Red Dead Redemption 2 characters I only own Adeline Harris. I do own the changes I have made and additions to the main plot, but main plot and story line belong to Rockstar, the company that owns RDR2.

The Angel Butcher of Rio Bravo: An RDR2 Story
[ Arthur Morgan / John Marston x OC love triangle ] "Let me be sweet to you," she murmured, nuzzling into his neck. "I'm always giving you such a time, aren't I?" * Tine Nilsen, known outside of the law as the Butcher of Rio Bravo, is a fearsome member of the Van der Linde gang when they run afoul of the Pinkerton detective agency in Blackwater. But will she help steer the gang and its two key gunslingers - Arthur Morgan and John Marston - right? Or will she be responsible for its downfall? * Well, here I go again, folks! Tine Nilsen was an OC cooked up for an otherworldly short story in my RDR2 collection, BELLICOSE (that story is called "Left Behind"). I liked her and her dynamic with Arthur and John so much, I thought I'd give this a spin! It will follow events of the game for the most part, but with the omission of a certain character, expect things to change, some. This story was completed on February 23, 2023. Hopefully you'll like it! This is a mature story written for mature, 18+ audiences: violence, swears, smut will all be within, reader beware.

Mud and Gold [Arthur Morgan] [RDR2]
➵ ❝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 !!Complete
~The Hunt~ Javier Escuella AU ✔︎
"We do more than hunting... We're hunted" "If we have to fight, we fight. If we have to run, we'll run If we must die, we'll die, But... We'll stay free" "You don't hire a Saint to catch a Sinner," "You either die a hero...or you live long enough to see yourself become a villain," Love is strong, it's powerful and keeps everything together. Or so she thought. She knew love was a fools game, no time for it while they were being hunted down from out west. Could her opinion change? Or will it stay the same.
