The Winter Soldier has always had one job: take orders. Suddenly his orders change from the usual brutality and violence that he's used to, and The Winter Soldier has to do something he's never done before.
He has to protect someone.

OC/Bucky Barnes
Relatively slow burn + shared trauma bonding
Warnings: canon typical swearing.
Slightly more than canon typical violence, and otherwise mature themes.
In honor of the Thunderbolts movie (which I still haven't seen oop--) I'm finally posting this which has been in my drafts since before Endgame came out.

This story will follow the events of the MCU, but it will have significant changes! Bucky x Main OC (Slight) Loki x Main OC Other relationships between other OC's and Characters will be shown! This will be kinda a love triangle book, (Not really because Bucky is the main) but still, it has elements of the trope. More details inside! Warning⚠️: Smut, Violence, Language, Mentions of SA, Etc. Consider yourself warned! This story will have dark themes! DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT own Marvel Comics, Marvel Cinematic Universe or any of its characters or storylines!

Bucky Barnes Imagines
Fluff, Smut and angst with the one only Bucky Barnes AKA The Winter Soldier. Sadly i do not own any of the marvel characters only the reader characters that i create as part of these stories. Originally part of my Avengers Imagines Book which I've since disbanded. I found i was incapable of writing single chapters so with each story ending up at least 4 parts I thought it would be easier to read if i broke the book down into individual characters. #1 Buckysmut 30.09.19... i'm quite proud of that:-) despite there being no smut in this book yet... #letttingthesidedownComplete
epiphany. (Bucky Barnes x Reader)
Part One of the "No Tricks" Trilogy. Sergeant James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes AKA The Winter Soldier doesn't remember much of his past. You are a former SHIELD intelligence analyst with a troubled past who seeks to help him uncover it. What you don't expect is to fall in love along the way. (Bucky Barnes x Reader). Setting: After CA:TWS until/during/after CA:CW - 2014 - 2016. NOTE: As the events of this book take place over two years, there will be multiple time skips/jumps in order for the story to progress without getting boring or repetitive. Just a heads up if that's not your jam. My OC belongs to me, anything associated with Marvel doesn't; I just use them as my playthings. NOTE: This story is for people 18+. There are mature themes explored in this story including but not limited to: suicide, violence, trauma, and graphic sex. There are warnings above each chapter, but just forewarning you. If you are under 18+, I'd suggest you find something else to read: 1) I don't want to corrupt you. 2) I don't need angry parents/guardians coming for me. But ultimately I can't stop you if you do decide to read this story.Complete

I Know | Congressman Bucky Barnes x Reader
Congressman Barnes x Reader This takes place leading up to and in the events of Thunderbolts. Heavily tied into canon events. Includes spoilers from Thunderbolts. SLOOOOOW BURN You're a late-20s congressional intern with big dreams and a long-standing admiration for the Avengers. You always wanted to help protect the world like they did and now, working on Capitol Hill, you're closer to that world than ever. Especially when a chance encounter puts you face-to-face with newly elected Congressman James Buchanan Barnes. Strong, independent, and absolutely not looking for a relationship, you're doing everything you can to ignore the growing tension between you and the man who was once a childhood crush. But working in close quarters makes it harder to ignore the way he looks at you... and even harder to figure out if he feels the same. This is a sloooow burn with plenty of emotional tension and a few smut scenes. Spicy chapter warning at the bottom of the description! Do not read all the way down if you do not want the spoiler. 64 Chapters plus the epilogue. Author's Note: This is my very first fanfic, and I'm so excited to finally share it!! I can't wait to hear your thoughts as you read it. Hope you enjoy 💙 PS: I love seeing peoples comments and reactions as you read so please leave comments as you read! **I do NOT own the rights to most of these characters.
