She was destined to be Luna... until the past walked back into the room. On the night she is meant to finally bond with her Alpha, everything falls apart. The girl who once stole her childhood-who stole her family's love, who abandoned her to die-returns and instantly becomes the center of everyone's world again. And in one heartbreaking moment of hesitation... she sees the truth. She will never be anyone's first choice in this pack. So she makes the bravest decision of her life- she walks away. No more begging. No more proving herself. No more breaking just to be seen. But the moment she chooses herself, the world she leaves behind turns chaotic. The Alpha who wavered becomes desperate to claim her. The family that ignored her wants her back. And the girl who once destroyed her life returns with new manipulations and old lies. For the first time, she's done being silent. Done being replaced. Done being the sacrifice. If they want their Luna back, they'll have to earn her. But even if they do... will her heart ever trust them again?

‟Tonight shall be the first and last night that we spend together, Gianita, for I do not intend to produce heirs by this marriage. The Prince would still be my heir, even though you're the Empress.‟ ‟Then why keep me, Sire, if I am of no use to you? It's obvious that you do not intend to add any more members to the imperial family besides yourself and the Prince, so why marry me?‟ *** Gianita, a princess from an eastern country is sent to marry the widowed Emperor of Angletonia, a vast and prosperous empire in the western hemisphere. To her dismay, the Emperor prefers the companion of his young son instead of his new bride. There were no traces of his previous marriage, only that the wife died shortly after the Prince was born.

Now they were as strangers; worse than strangers, for they could never become acquainted.* Bennett Mattey first saw him seven years ago in Romania when she lived abroad. The frowning man in a cap always stood out to her when she saw him every Tuesday. Once he disappeared, she all-but-forgot about him. But when she sees him in Brooklynn by chance, she begins to question who the mysterious, gloved man is. It's especially hard when it seems her roommate also has a thing for him and he doesn't seem to remember her the way she remembers him. Bucky Barnes x OC. Pre/during Falcon and the Winter Soldier. A modern comedic spin on Jane Austen's Persuasion as well as it being a Bucky Barnes fanfiction. I wanted to see what would happen when there is just a normal person in his life, and what they would observe as Bucky is healing. *Quote from Jane Austen's Persuasion.

Helen Parry disappeared in 1946, reappearing in 2028, the result of a scientific test that went wrong. Her reappearance triggers a series of events that call for protection from more than just regular federal agents. Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson have only just returned from a gruelling mission and are ordered to take on what they initially see as nothing more than babysitting. Along with the federal agents they are assigned to work with, they find their hands full not just dealing with corrupt federal officials, who may be working for HYDRA, but potentially the Power Broker as well. It doesn't help that Helen is smart, beautiful and has a connection with Bucky that he originally doesn't know about. That's something they have to work out between themselves. This novel takes place in 2028 (presumably after the events of Avengers: Secret Wars). All MCU characters used are the property of Disney / Marvel. Original characters and the plot are the creation of the author who claims all rights. Please do not copy, paste and/or translate into any other platform.

This story is in no way based off of it. Any terminology and things said are based off this story only and something that is completely fiction and was written years before covid-19. The virus in this story is a turned flesh eating bacteria. Think Maze Runner.
