Worth the Pain // A Bucky Barnes Story

With Tony gone, Steve in the past, and Sam stepping up as the new Captain America, the world is shifting faster than Bucky Barnes can keep up. The Multiverse is wreaking havoc, new threats emerge daily, and-seriously-who is that spider guy?

Between relentless nightmares and therapy sessions, Bucky throws himself into helping Sam, desperate for purpose. But when Sam introduces him to Ella-a former Red Room assassin who escaped and is now his new mission partner-things get even more complicated. Their task? Dismantle the latest version of the Red Room.

The problem? Bucky and Ella can't stand each other. Both are stubborn, both are haunted by their pasts, and neither wants to work together. But as the mission unfolds, it becomes clear that nothing is as simple as it seems.

As tensions rise, so do unexpected feelings. Bucky and Ella can't seem to stay away from each other, but with the stakes higher than ever, one question lingers-will this mission change everything for the better? And if so... what will it cost them?
