Wildfire | Kayce Dutton • Yellowstone by princessarchives

If you were to ask me what if was like to fall in love with a cowboy, I would say it's like a wildfire. Once it starts, there's no way of stoping it. It burns you alive from the inside out. Consumes you, every part of you. At least that's how it felt for me when I fell for a cowboy, one who wasn't even mine and could never be mine because he belonged to somebody else and I'm left with figuring out how to put out this fire that is loving Kayce Dutton. ***** Darkness and tragedy was all Wren Wheeler knew from the day she was brought into this world. The only good thing in her life was her older brother, Rip. The one who saved her from the brutal ending their mother and younger brother weren't so lucky to escape from. She didn't believe they would ever have a chance of surviving out in the world. Not until John Dutton gave them a second chance at life, just as long as they swore to never bring their past with them to his ranch. The ranch where she found herself a family, a sister she never had, and a love she swore she'd never allow herself to experience. Because that kind of love was never meant for a girl like her. Kayce Dutton was never meant for her, and he could never be. They could never exist. Will destiny prove her wrong?

On Lucy's 34th birthday, John brings home a troubled teenager named Rip, a boy who's lost everything and needs a place to belong. As Lucy takes Rip in, their bond as a family strengthens, but John's unspoken love for Lucy hangs in the air, unacknowledged yet ever present. In the unforgiving Montana wilderness, they find healing, love, and the courage to move forward-together.

Yellowstone: The Silence Between Screams by inkandscarsjess

Cassidy was a ghost before the Duttons found her-barely seventeen, all scars and silence, with no record of her existence before age five. She doesn't speak of where she came from. But when Rip Wheeler stumbles across her on the edge of the ranch, bleeding and half-conscious, he brings her back-against every instinct but one: protect her. What begins as a reluctant act of mercy turns into something deeper as the Duttons start unraveling the truth. Cassidy's file, pulled by Jamie, reveals a history soaked in horror-sealed hospital records, sterilization at thirteen, SA reports, forced silence by the system, and a father among her abusers. She was supposed to disappear. She didn't. Now, the Dutton Ranch becomes more than just a place to heal. It becomes a battleground for Cassidy's survival, and maybe... her redemption. But healing isn't quiet. It's angry. It's raw. And it's coming for everyone who ever hurt her. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings: This fanfiction contains graphic references to childhood sexual abuse, trafficking, rape, self-harm, forced sterilization, eating disorders, PTSD, mental health struggles, violence, and systemic failure.
