Javi joins the Van Der Linde gang after years of being on the run, finding refuge within it. He soon falls for the toughest member, Arthur. However, Arthur's cold demeanor turns him towards an Irishman named Sean-unaware of Arthur's true feelings.

EXCERPT:
Arthur itched his scruffy beard, "You don't look like a farmer."
"My curiosity is peaked, Blondie. What is it you thought I did for work before I joined you all?" Javi asked with a smirk, his head moving up and resting on Sean's shoulder. Arthur gulped.
"I dunno, I suppose I figured you were a whore or sumthin." The folks at the campfire bursted out laughing. They weren't laughing at Arthur, they were laughing at the image of Javi being a working girl of some sort. Still, Arthur felt insecure.
"It's not that crazy of an idea!" He shouted.
Javi calmed down, "It's alright, I was not judging your guess, though I am curious what part of me screamed man-whore?"
He looked at Javi, analyzing his face. He wasn't sure why that was the first career he matched the Chilean boy's face. It just slipped out, but he felt as though he needed to justify himself.
"I ain't too sure. I suppose your looks?"
"Do you like the way I look, Mr. Morgan?"All Rights Reserved

The wild, wild West (Arthur Morgan x f!Reader) by GreenAppleWriting

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!

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.
