Hello! This is my first try at a Red Dead Redemption 2 fanfic and of course it is about Mr. Arthur Morgan 😏
Also my plan is to loosely base this story on the game but some things will definitely be changed because I can 🙃
Hopefully you enjoy!
I do not own any of the Red Dead Redemption characters or places mentioned in the story.

The wild, wild West (Arthur Morgan x f!Reader)
> 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
Arthur Morgan x Reader
[Completed] The beginning of the story takes place when they settled in Colter. When everyone was together before they moved to horseshoe overlook. Traveling the wild west can be a hell of a journey! It even gets crazier when you meet a man named Arthur Morgan, your life is going great but as you get into more and more trouble. Things go south really fast. This is my third fan fiction and I played this game like no tomorrow. I absolutely fell in love with Arthur and his big heart. I told myself I had to do a story on this game. Hope you enjoy. I do not own any of these characters. Thank y'all so much for nine thousand reads! 😭 #5 RDR2 #11 Arthur Morgan #52 RDR2 #15 John Marston #1 Arthur MorganComplete

When the Smoke Clears - Arthur Morgan X Reader
When the Smoke Clears is a visceral, slow-burn fanfiction set in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. You are Harlan van der Linde's daughter - born into outlaw blood, but raised in a house ruled by fear. After years of silence, years of enduring the man who killed your mother and kept you captive, you finally break free - leaving behind blood, fire, and a past you can never outrun. You flee to the only place that might still feel like home: Dutch van der Linde's camp. A place you once visited frequently when you were younger, but you're not a child anymore, and the gang doesn't know what to make of you - especially Arthur Morgan, who remembers your father and the girl he'd brought around camp, but who knows nothing of the woman you've become. As old loyalties clash with new tensions, you must navigate a world where trust is scarce, danger is constant, and your freedom has come at a steep cost. ~•~•~ This story is a reader insert, but I still have yet to use (y/n). Important note: This story is INSPIRED by Red Dead Redemption 2. Not BASED on RDR2. This will follow many of the same themes and loose plot lines of the game, but I am mainly using the characters from the game to write my own story. So don't expect everything from the game to translate over into this story. Disclaimers: Mature audiences only. Sexual content, mention of rape and physical abuse, smoking, drinking, cursing, murder, violence, and of course... 🌶️ SMUT🌶️
One Wrong Choice
This is a Red Dead Redemption 2 Fan-fic. Arthur Morgan x Female Y/n (Reader) Life is pretty simple as a rich woman. No, let me try that again. Life is pretty simple as woman married to a rich man. Stay silent unless spoken too, dress with only the latest fashion, don't do anything unlady-like, and remain faithful to your husband. No matter what. Heaven forbid a happily married, high society woman of any respectability be found going against any of these rules. Good thing then, you are not a happily married woman; and when a group of outlaws makes a sudden appearance in your dreary city of Saint Denis, you happily break every single rule in the book. This story will not follow strictly along the lines of Red Dead Redemption 2 but I will do my best to do every character the justice they deserve. However, I'm a sucker for happy endings so I will be adding my own spin on it. DISCLAIMER: I do not own rdr2 or any of its characters. This is a non-profit fan made story.

[[A slow burn OCxArthur story with both new and original characters]] They say the best things in life are unplanned. But sometimes... they're the worst. After the Blackwater catastrophe, Arthur feels the heavy weight of responsibility; being one of the gang members looked up to and relied upon to get them out of this mess, he's strained by the notion that they may not be getting out this time. With the West slowly transformed into a civilized hellhole, they are forced to move in all directions despite the place they wanted to return to most.

Stuck in a rut of her own, the independent, God-fearing, and wistful Summer Grace Monroe has been searching for her own place in life. After being scorned by lovers and in and out of jobs, she feels amiss her late twenties without a true home. She finds the most peace in her church and helping those in need, especially the local Native population. Her father, Captain Monroe, works within the Army as a voice for those being silenced. She helps others find their story, but what would be her own? Things all seem to take a turn when fate brings a chance encounter, permanently altering whatever path her life was going to take and intertwining her destiny with that of a notorious group of outlaws - yet she would not be the only one whose path would be changed. **This story will contain mature content such as violence/gore, sexual themes, and language. Do not read if you are under 18** [These characters all belong within the Red Dead Redemption universe/Rockstar, but I have made a few original characters and altered storylines.]Complete
