When Bucky Barnes is on the run, hiding in the shadows of New York, Bucharest, and finally Wraslava - a secretive island kingdom in Western Europe - the last thing he expects is to fall in love. But then he meets her. And everything changes. Penelope Amara Coventry is the future Queen of Wraslava. Daughter of King Benjamin and Queen Esme, raised with poise, duty, and tradition. Yet none of that defines her. Penelope is a dreamer, a romantic, someone who finds more truth in novels than in royal decrees. She's been paraded in front of polished suitors, each more unbearable than the last. But she wants more than strategic alliances and crown-polishing diplomacy. She wants real love. The kind that sweeps you away and leaves you breathless. And with Bucky, she finds exactly that. He's damaged, closed off, and constantly haunted by the past. But to Penelope, he's more than the Winter Soldier. He's kind, fiercely protective, and above all - real. What starts as a quiet, unlikely connection quickly grows into something neither of them can ignore. Their love is immediate. Intense. Forbidden. But secrets don't stay buried forever. When the world starts closing in - when governments begin asking questions, and Penelope's parents discover the truth about the man she's given her heart to - they'll be forced to decide: Can love survive when loyalty, legacy, and history stand in its way? She's next in line for the throne. He's the most wanted man on the planet. They were never supposed to meet - let alone fall in love. ------------------ Bucky Barnes X OC The story starts during Civil War, but doesn't necessarily follow the plot line of the movie. I don't own any of the Marvel characters, furthermore I added people, a country, dialogs etc. that are part of my own imagination for this story. For all my beefy Bucky girlies

One Final Mission| Bucky Barnes (3)
"Where are you going with this?" "You know where I'm going with this," Jessica said. "She thinks the most dangerous people are the ones who lie to themselves about who they are the longest." "Absolutely not," Bucky snapped, stepping forward, his hands bracing the counter like it was the only thing grounding him. "Jess, are you insane? You will lose everything you've built, everything you fought and survived to become. You really want to give her that satisfaction?" Jessica moved around the island, calm but resolute, standing in front of him now. "If we can prove she's assembled a team of enhanced individuals... if we find them? That's all the evidence we need to bury her. No trials. No backroom politics. Just facts." Bucky let out a low sigh, scrubbing a hand down his face. "So what, you're just going to stroll into her trap and hope it leads somewhere?" "Val wants me on her team?" Jessica leaned in slightly, eyes steady. "Then that's exactly what I'll give her." A smirk ghosted across her lips. "And then we tear her empire down from the inside." *** [Book 3] Prequel: The First Mission Book 1: One Last Mission Book 2: One More Mission Book 3: One Final Mission Bucky Barnes x Jessica Rogers (Fem!OC) Based on the events of Thunderbolts* Started: 07.05.25 Completed: 04.06.25 *** Content Warning: This book contains sexual content, violence, death, and other mature themes.
