"I am a demanding creature. I am selfish and cruel and extremely unreasonable. But I am your servant. When you starve I will feed you; when you are sick I will tend to you. I crawl at your feet; for before your love, your kisses, I am debased. For you alone I will be weak." - Bound together by more than their souls, James Barnes and Demetria Rogers burn for one another. A primal instinct inside of them, that claws and rips away at their sanity until they find each other. - Or - James and Demetria were always meant to be. In every universe, they find their way to each other, and in this one, it is no different. -

Friends since childhood, separated by tragedy. Can you seem to find each other again? Can you save each other? A Bucky x Reader story. Romance / Angst / Action I do not own any Marvel Characters or Stories.

Hydra's secret wasn't a weapon. It was her. Codenamed Hellhound, she was the final survivor of Project Wolves-Hydra's most classified experiment. Designed to be the perfect obedient soldier, she was more than they realized: a wolf-shifter with a mind of her own, forced to hide her humanity beneath fur and fangs. When the Avengers raid a Hydra base, they expect to destroy another enemy asset. Instead, they find a creature who shouldn't exist-one that the Winter Soldier once trained, and one that remembers him far more than he remembers her. But Hellhound has secrets even Hydra never uncovered. She's not just an experiment. She's not just a wolf. And as the Avengers debate whether to trust her, she walks a razor's edge-between proving she's not a threat and revealing just how dangerous she truly is.

In the spring of 2014, HYDRA-occupied SHIELD is in full swing, working underground to power the monster that is the Winter Soldier. Following in his shadow is their latest creation. Immortal, obedient and a murder machine, the child known simply as 'The Faceless Girl' cleans up any loose threads the Winter Soldier may have missed. She is a ghost story inside of a ghost story. With the fall of SHIELD, however, The Winter Soldier and The Faceless Girl run from HYDRA. They are now defectors of everything they know. It is simply James and Isabell on the road, now. James and Isabell, and the many, many ghosts that haunt them.

They tore her heart out in the dead of a Siberian winter... and replaced it with a fragment of the cosmos vengeance. Her mission was simple: Kill Steve Rogers before he becomes a symbol. But as time fractures and her programming begins to rot, the only question left is this--will the bullet tear through him... or her first? Rankings: #6 captainamericafirstavenger

After the battle against Thanos and his armies, Marlow Hendrix is tasked with helping Steve Rogers return the Infinity Stones to their rightful times. When her mission goes awry in 1970, she keeps her resolve, waiting to find a way out of an increasingly dangerous situation while being stuck away from home and away from help. Back in 2023, Bruce picks up her signal and pulls it to the present, unaware of the danger that lurks in the past. It is only when an unexpected threat steps off the platform that they realise how badly the mission went. And when Marlow finally returns, she struggles to come to terms with her past in order to accept her future--but with the help of a familiar face, she might just do it. ⁂ Main themes: Time-travel, canon-compliant, Endgame to FATWS, Hydra, slow-burn, trauma, brainwashing, friends to lovers. ⁂ "She knew his face. She felt she knew it like the back of her hand by now, so she tried her hardest to prepare herself in those infinitely long moments after Richardson spoke. It didn't matter though; she couldn't help the hiccup of her heart as he walked in, dressed in leathers, with his hair significantly shorter than she'd ever seen in person. As his eyes landed on her, she tried not to expect his face to be the one she knew. She tried to not to expect it to shift into a look of realization, then to worry, then to protection. Because he wasn't the Bucky she knew." ________ Loosely inspired by a vid by @madsxbarnes on Tiktoki
