Fics like On being afraid

Jack Kelly was afraid of a lot of things. He was afraid that winter would come early, sending a chill through the lodge that would spread illness and hunger. He was afraid he and Racetrack wouldn’t be able to get enough gloves and hats and scarves and boots to keep the boys warm. He was afraid he would never get away to Santa Fe and its vast, open spaces. He was afraid of the Spider. And the Refuge. And how it would break his boys if they were taken. How it was probably breaking Crutchie now. He was afraid he would break, if the blows didn’t stop soon. Maybe that’s why he took the deal. In which Davey learns why Jack took Pulitzer's deal, and what he had to endure in the meantime.
