Is a crimson embrace worth the red that spills from your ledgers? Perhaps not. How about blood soaked hands that wipe away your tears? I suppose that isn't any better. But for as long as she can remember, blood had shaped her. It didn't just course through her veins, it drew her from nothing. Crimson red streaks painting a broken portrait and yet, those steel blue eyes still managed to find her breathtaking.

Names She Never Knew
Natasha Romanoff has been described as many things: a killer, cold, heartless, emotionally unavailable. And she is. But she was not always like that. She has a daughter, or had one. One that died during birth. Or at least that's what she was told. Because of that, she became all of those things. But her world is turned upside down when she finds out that not only is her daughter alive, but she grew up in the Red Room. She will do anything to have her daughter back with her. Will she find her daughter? Will her daughter know who she is and accept her? What will her daughter be like having grown up in the place that teaches their students to hate people like Natasha? "She was the secret her mother lost, and the truth she must now become." Some ages will be altered to fit the storyline better. The writing will get better as the story progresses, I promise! Potential triggers: -Fighting/violence -trauma -eating disorder -self-harm
Colder | Bucky Barnes x OC
TW: blood, mentions of depression, drinking, smoking, angst, physical pain, torture, mentions of suicidal thoughts. *** [edited & revised] *** Blood poured out of her mouth but she continued up refusing to give up right away. She locked her gaze with him. And something inside her snapped. A wave of lost memories passed through her eyes-memories of him. She saw the same expression in him. Somehow, he remembered her, too. "Кто вы?" Who are you? He asked struggling to get the words out. "Кто вы?" Who are you? She repeated his question. She saw a twirl of emotions in his eyes, but he remained still. ~~ A/N: please keep in mind that I don't speak Russian and I use DeepL for translation. If you find any errors please kindly let me know about them. ~~ This is my first ever Bucky/Winter Soldier story, so I hope this is good. Thank you in advance and I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Love you all, S.S.Complete
Head Is Not My Home
The Black Widow is a legend. Legends aren't made cheap. Shaken by the events of Civil War, Natasha Romanoff goes back to familiar ground to hide. To hide and remember how she became the Black Widow. How Natalia Romanova would do anything to save her father-figure. How she was one of 28 ballerinas with the Bolshoi - no, one of 28 Black Widow agents with the Red Room. How the only thing that made her feel human was a man with a metal arm. (A story to show what really happened in the comics Red Room and how it could fit into the MCU)Complete
Gore: Winterwidow
She tasted delicious. Her blood filled his mouth and her eyes widened like a lamb caught by the wolf. James had her pinned down on the floor, his natural instincts getting the better of him. She was a tease, Natasha was... her red hair made him desire her so much more than he could bear. To think he had let her leave that bar without a number made him want to suck up more juice, but enough was enough. He wanted her alive. He wanted to love her. To devour her.Complete

Two red umbrellas, one yellow world
*DISCONTINUED BUT MAYBE ONE DAY I'LL BRING HER BACK TO FINISH IT* They were too different to even be considered a good pairing, but somebody somewhere had written their names down in red ink, concealed between yellowing pages, written their names down together - a girl in the past and a boy in the present - and tied them together in a rope that could never be broken. They had to stand together against all odds, an unbreaking duo; two hearts, two worlds beating as one. Just two people, loving like the world will stop. Because it might. "You're safe now." "I know. That's what scares me."Complete
