Summary
With the gang spread thin after moving to their new hideout, they need more help than they would admit. When Dutch sends Bill and Arthur to Valentine for supplies. Trouble arises when Y/N fends off a drunk. Impressed, Dutch tasks Arthur with recruiting her to help rescue Sean, who’s been captured by bounty hunters.
Y/N is a hardened outlaw, and has lived a life full of crime, just like Arthur. She's wary of joining another gang after past betrayals, but the more time she spends with the Van der Lindes, the harder it becomes to ignore the sense of belonging she swore she didn’t need. Arthur doesn't want to get his hopes up, but he quietly wants her to stay. Riding with the gang forces her to confront the version of herself she swore she’d buried, and a future she never imagined.
Will she stick with the gang, or go back to riding the trails alone?
