They said he was a weapon. A ghost. A ticking time bomb. But when Olivia 'Liv' Stark watches him through the surveillance feed - stiff, silent, flinching from kindness - she doesn't see a monster. She sees a man no one taught how to exist without pain. And she can't stop watching. - This story DOES NOT follow the MCU time line. But IF it would be set somewhere after Captain America: The Winter Soldier. I don't own any of the characters besides Liv - all of the others belong to MARVEL.

"Then tell me what it was." The demand cracked through the silence like a thrown shield. For a heartbeat, we just stared at each other. Him, furious and certain. Me, perfectly calm. Then I smiled, soft and cold. "No." His eyes darkened. "Why?" "Because you don't get to know everything about me," I said lightly, almost playfully. "I'm sure that drives you insane, but some of us don't want our whole lives exposed in a museum." That one landed. His breath caught, his stance faltering for just a second. // Ophelia has been to five different schools across the world in the last two years. Not because she's failing - quite the opposite. She's a prodigy in languages, fencing, and secrets she picks up like it's nothing. But why so many schools? Why can't anyone find anything about her? Then she does something that draws the attention of someone who will change the course of her life. Fury. "The all American martyr act makes me want to chew glass." "I don't like the way she looks at people like she already decided they're irrelevant."

For five years, she was dust. She was nothing. And when she came back―when they 𝘢𝘭𝘭 came back―the world had moved on without her―and so had her title, her clearance, and the project she built from the ground up. Six months into the Department of Defense's grueling reintegration protocol and held back by endless red tape, 𝑫𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒂 takes every assignment in stride, determined to prove herself. So when her old friend Lemar Hoskins requests her for a mission, the chance to reclaim her position as director of her old department finally feels within reach. But when her trust in the new Captain America begins to fracture, she makes a choice: walk away from the D.O.D. and take a risk on Sam Wilson―and the man the world hasn't quite yet forgiven for his dark past.
