An ex-HYDRA assassin with blood on her hands and a century of kills behind her, Melissa was under HYDRA control for 103 years-until half of HYDRA vanished during the Blip. Free of the leash but not the instinct, she disappeared into the shadows and picked up right where she left off. Killing, after all, is all she knows.
Now, she's back on SHIELD's radar. And Bucky Barnes-the man she once knew as the Winter Soldier-is the one tasked with bringing her in. Their shared past is twisted: two weapons forged in the same fire, walking parallel paths on opposite sides of redemption. When Bucky finally catches her, Melissa is caged at SHIELD HQ. But the story doesn't end there.
Their relationship is... complicated. Each visit drags old ghosts into the room. Tension simmers. Trust frays. And something raw and human begins to grow in the cracks. But SHIELD doesn't run on emotion-and neither does Melissa. Security breaches, internal suspicion, and the looming question of who Melissa really is now make redemption seem impossible.
Maybe it is. Maybe monsters like Melissa Mansen don't want to be saved.
But maybe-just maybe-she'd try.
If Bucky Barnes asked her to.

The Silence Between Gunshots
Bucky Barnes is only a few months out of Hydra-barely a year into piecing his life back together, if you could even call it that. He's tired, quiet, and living low in a city that doesn't look at him twice. That's how he likes it. Until one rainy afternoon, in a half-empty diner that smells like burnt coffee and old vinyl, he meets someone who doesn't fit anywhere either. Nero Aspen doesn't look like much at first glance-just a scrawny teenager in a tattered hoodie, poking at a plate of food he can't pay for and probably won't finish. But there's something off about him. Something in the way he doesn't flinch when the waitress raises her voice, in the way his eyes flick too fast, like he's seen too much. And maybe that's because he has. Nero's tied with Bucky on the trauma scale. An ex-brainwashed assassin or a demigod that can't remember his original dimension. Bucky doesn't know any of that yet. He just knows the kid looks cold and out of place. So he pays for the meal, shrugs it off. Something Alpine, his cat, would definitely side-eye him for-she was hoping that money would go toward a new cat toy. Instead, it goes toward a quiet gesture Bucky doesn't realize will change everything. What starts as a random act of kindness spirals into something deeper-something messier. Because you can't run from Hydra forever. And you can't outrun gods, curses, or the things that make you feel human, even if you want to.
The Angel and The Billionaire

Tony was also bleeding from the fight after the truth about his parent's murder was revealed. Against his best judgment, he takes her with him to help recover her memories. It doesn't take long for Tony to find himself falling for her, but he didn't expect her to feel the same way. Things seem to be perfect until Grace's history comes to light, stiring up issues about the Accords and the separation of the Avengers. At the same time, a mysterious enemy with solid proof of things the Avengers and SHIELD would rather hide appears, determined to tell the world who our favorite heroes really are. Set after CA: CW. Grace is my OC and belongs to me but anything associated with Marvel doesn't. Mature themes such as torture, PTSD, anxiety, trauma, and violence are explored. Some smut. Proceed with caution.Complete

Thrown together under Stark's watch, Aria Cole and Bucky Barnes are forced into a partnership neither of them asked for. Their banter is sharp, their scars sharper, and every mission drags them closer to a truth they can't ignore. Because for the first time in years, Bucky finds someone who sees the man, not the monster. And for Aria, the word he calls her - sweetheart - might just undo every wall she's ever built.

The Ballad of the Stars: Book One: A Marvel OC Story
At just nineteen, Sarah Rogers was kidnapped by Hydra and forged into one of the world's deadliest assassins. Years of brutal training, conditioning, and forced obedience stripped her identity away, leaving only a cold weapon in Hydra's arsenal. But everything changed during a routine cryo-freeze. A scientist made a mistake-Sarah never learned what it was, only that her memories came rushing back all at once. For the first time in years, she remembered who she was. And with that came a single, consuming thought: escape. She waited patiently, biding her time until her next mission, when she finally executed her plan and fled. For a brief, exhilarating moment, Sarah tasted freedom-and she swore never to look back. But freedom is fragile. Just when she believed she was safe, she was captured once more. And this time, her captor was the last person she ever expected. ---------------------------- A MARVEL FANFICTION | Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction.

Crave
The Asset. Makes it sound like there was only one, doesn't it? One assassin, one soldier, one life stolen and taken over to be used as a tool for evil minds. There was never only one. Hydra's bloodstained hands, people called them. And once one's hands have been bathed in blood so many times, it's near impossible to look at the skin and not see red. Yet, when Hydra has been pushed out into the open by the Avengers there's the slightest flicker of hope for the asset left behind. You see, I never had a Steve Rogers. No one is looking for me. The only person I've ever had is the one I was trapped with, the one that's now free. The one who, if he finds me, I will surely destroy.

Eighty Years | Steve Rogers / Captain America
"She never held my heart. It was always yours." Back in 1942, Steve Rogers and you were allowed into the Army under a chance and a test. When you're both created under the super-soldier serum in 1943, a battle in Austria goes wrong, leaving one to disappear until 1945, and then the other in ice when one finally returned. Eighty years forward to the present day, when regrouped with each other and the Avengers, Hydra is also back to finish Red Skull's job from the '40s. Will Steve continue to act like you're just partners created by the same lab and only friends from the military? Or, will he finally admit to the chemistry and line being built within the last eighty years for something more? Hydra standing in both your ways challenges you and Steve to confess the truth to one another and figure out the underlying question of your relationship before it's too late. So the real question is, will there ever be enough time?
' ' Perfect Enough To Break ' '
Once, they were weapons. Now, they're something far more dangerous. Trained by HYDRA. Sharpened into silence. Together, they were nearly unstoppable-until their paths split in blood and secrecy. Years later, he's with SHIELD, with the Avengers, fighting for the side he once destroyed. She's still in the shadows, loyal to the system that built her. When a mission forces their worlds to collide, old instincts kick in-and so do feelings neither of them should still carry. Enemies on paper. Something else entirely beneath the surface. But the past doesn't let go, and neither does HYDRA. And in the space between duty and desire, someone always bleeds.
