Jamie Hendricks is an AWOL Helicopter Pilot hiding in the American wilderness when suspicious helicopters are spotted over her office. Her involvement and her dark past draws the attention of Task Force 141. In exchange for not getting court martial, she is recruited and trained to be a killer just like her enigmatic, dark, guiltless new lieutenant... while she fights off the demons of her past while trying to fight for her future, she's drawn into Ghost's darkness and he's drawn to the flame she continually hides from him. Light and dark collide like fire and gasoline, explosions and death are bound to follow.
This story is based completely off of the COD MWII game, along with parts of the story of my own included. I do not own nor created any characters from the game. Written from Jamie's POV with some of Ghosts POV.
TW: Please be aware, this story includes references to sexual assault, graphic violence, murder, cursing, blood, torture, graphic descriptions of sex, smut, mutual pinning (18+ ONLY)
This is a SLOOOOOOOOW BURN. Enemies to squad mates, squad mates to lovers... very little fluff, lots of angst.

behind the scars - a call of duty fanfiction
Vesper walked away from Task Force 141 to save their lives. Now she wears Konni black under Makarov's command-weapon, pawn, and traitor by design. Her mission begins in Urzikstan: hijack the train, steal the keys, ignite the fuse. Every move pushes her deeper into the enemy's grasp, but one number keeps flashing on the brief-141. She tells herself it's not redemption. It's strategy. Shield them. Whatever it takes. Yet the heartbeat she can't silence is proof she hasn't turned to stone. Ghosts don't need words-scars speak for them. To survive, she'll wear the crown her enemies handed her and break it from within-turning loyalty into leverage, and love into the sharpest blade of all. 1/9/2025 #3 in simonrileyxoc category 24/9/2025 #2 in soapmactavish category 14/4/26 #1 in masked category 15/4/26 #1 in taskforce141 category 14/4/26 #1 in modernwarfareii category
How to Love the Stars | Ghost (Simon Riley)
Althea was dangerous. She wasn't particularly large or imposing, but once you heard the Whisper of her breath, it was too late. Her ability to sneak around without alerting others, as if melting into the shadows, it scared people. She was a cold, heartless killer, and nothing more. Or so she thought. She has always looked up at the sky, loving daytime, hating the darkness, the stars that watched her suffer. But one day she meets someone that makes her love the stars. -------------------------- Althea suddenly felt, more than saw a presence behind her. Before she could whip around, there was a harsh blow to the back of her head, and her vision sparked. she watched, mesmerized as fireworks exploded in her vision. Stars swam across her sight and she reached out for them, but just as she was about to touch them they danced away. The world became darker and darker. Her radio crackled again, and she could barely hear the words. It was all this death and destruction were miles away, her reality fading. She just barely heard her name being called from the garbled sounds of the communicator. The last thing she saw was a skull, glinting eerily in the dim light of the alley. -------------------------- NUMBER 2 IN GHOST NUMBER 1 IN SIMON RILEY NUMBER 2 IN SPY [simon 'ghost' riley x fem!oc/Reader] Unfinished!Complete

Abducted as a child and used by the enemy that tore her world apart, Y/N L/N grew into a soldier who turned her trauma into strength. Years later, she's recruited by Captain Price for a mission that brings her face to face with the very past she tried to bury. Simon "Ghost" Riley never expected to care ... about anyone. But when Robin joins Task Force 141, her sharp instincts, biting wit, and haunted eyes break through the walls he's spent a lifetime building. Their partnership is volatile. Unspoken. Electric.

The Masks in Your Life (Ghost x Reader)
18+ | contains smut, emotional/psychological abuse, canon-typical violence | please read the first chapter for more information After a mission that didn't go exactly as planned, Ghost gets assigned a covert mission. But spying on a target who doesn't deliver is less intriguing than watching the beautiful, young woman across the street. Too beautiful to always be alone, too young to look this miserable. He couldn't help but compare you to a bird, a beautiful, magnificent one that was caged against its will, having its wings clipped by someone who didn't understand its urge to be free.Complete

behind the mask - a call of duty fanfiction
Nikolina Sokolova - Callsign: Vesper. A name whispered in the shadows of every covert operation, a sniper with precision and a mind that cuts sharper than the blade of a knife. Trained in infiltration, psychological warfare, and close-quarters combat, she's a ghost in the system - the one sent when things need to be handled quietly... and permanently. Loaned to Task Force 141 after a tense ceasefire, Nina's presence is part of a delicate peace offering, but behind her cold exterior lies a woman torn between duty and the scars of a life she can never forget. Her loyalties are fractured, her intentions unclear. With each mission, she plays her part, but her true agenda is hers alone. 21/5/25: #1 in captainprice category 9/7/25: #1 in cod category 11/7/25: #1 in military category 19/7/25: #1 in modernwarfare category 1/8/25: #1 in simonriley category 24/8/25: #1 in callofduty categoryComplete
The Choice
A choice lingers-dangerous, inevitable. As Task Force 141's sniper, you've earned your place beside Ghost, Soap, and Gaz. But war shifts, and with it comes him. König. A hooded specter, unreadable, his presence just as commanding as the masked man already watching your every move-Ghost. Two shadows. Both relentless. Both drawing you in. Loyalty. Temptation. Fate. One will consume you. Who will it be? *Disclaimer* This is a fan fiction. I do not own anything but the character of "Zero" aka the reader and her story line. I do not own the COD story or it's characters. There will be violence and 18+ scenes in this story so please proceed with caution. The story will not follow the stories lines/missions from the game but will be made up of different missions. I do hope you enjoy!!
Early Birds
The 141 being snowed under with intel and digital tech they can't decipher, ask Laswell to send them a Digital Specialist to assist them. She is not what Ghost expects and she triggers changes in his life that he never expected to experience. This is a slow burn friendship/love story. I wanted to give Simon 'Ghost' Riley some much needed love, happiness and comfort. The story doesn't follow the events of the Modern Warfare stories, but does borrow details from canon.
