The fall of SHIELD and decimation of HYDRA was only the beginning. The history you thought you knew was a lie. Bucky Barnes may have escaped from HYDRA, but he didn't do it alone. He went back for a woman he barely remembers, but somehow can't forget. She's the secret everyone would die to possess. Hidden in plain sight until the day she disappeared without a trace. She's been a prisoner for longer than she's been alive, but she's done hiding. Thrust into the middle of a war they never wanted and forced to run from enemies and friends alike the only people they can trust are each other. Can two broken souls find peace or will the enemy they've been fighting their whole lives destroy them once and for all? The world may fear The Winter Solider, but they've never faced a threat like the Soul Stealer.

Aurora Luna Santiago was never meant to return to Forks. The firstborn daughter of Charlie Swan and the older half-sister of Bella, Aurora has spent her life far from the rain-building a world of her own, far from secrets that refuse to stay buried. To Bella, Aurora has always been everything. Beautiful. Effortless. Untouchable. Everything Bella could never be. But perfection comes with consequences. Because Aurora isn't just different. She's something the supernatural world doesn't understand. The Cullen family are drawn to her in ways they can't explain. The wolves feel it too-an unnatural calm that shouldn't exist, especially not for someone like Paul Lahote. And far beyond Forks... the Volturi are watching. Closely. Because Aurora doesn't just change people. She changes what they are. And in a world built on control- that makes her dangerous.

After their attempt at escaping went wrong, Bucky and Dahlia were captured and sentenced to a lifetime with Hydra. After being placed in cryo-freeze, Bucky was forced to watch as Dahlia's fate was left undetermined. He didn't know if they killed her, if they tortured her, or if they just let her go. But he knew Hydra wasn't that forgiving. He knew they wouldn't let her off easy. So after the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, he buried himself in the past, trying to find out what happened to the woman that saved him. The woman he loved and would do anything for. The woman who kept him from withering even in the darkest of times. If he did find her one day, he knew he would never let her go. Not again. 𖦏 𑁍 𖦏 𑁍 𖦏 APART OF THE ❝SONG OF SEASONS❞ SERIES 1.

Evelyn "Emma" Stark never liked following orders, especially not from her parents. They expected her to follow in her brother's footsteps, to help build one of the most powerful weapons and technology empires in the world. Instead, she chose medicine. She chose to save lives, not invent ways to end them. Then the war began. Drafted as a combat medic in World War II, Emma still refused to blindly obey. She bent the rules when they got in the way of what was right. She was a Stark, after all. But when she joins the Howling Commandos to dismantle HYDRA, she is captured. Taken. And she becomes a monster who has no choice but to obey. With no choice but to follow her orders.

"But...he was your everything." I look down at the faded photo, a small smile appearing as I take in his handsome smiling face, god how I used to love that face. "He was my everything." I repeat in a smaller tone allowing my finger to run over the surprisingly smooth paper. "What happened?" Looking up my smile drops as reality hits me, "He died." Started: 22/8/20 Completed: 29/9/20
